I looked at the heavy snow outside the window and was a little dazed.

As a southerner, I rarely have the opportunity to see snow. It has been almost half a year since I came here. I wonder how my father and mother are doing. Do they miss me?

It’s a pity that I had too few close friends in my previous life. Apart from my teacher, I don’t even have someone I miss.

I was thinking deeply when a pale-faced ghost suddenly appeared in front of me.

I forced the scream back into my throat.

I was so angry that I almost captured the pale-faced ghost, but luckily it ran away fast, and before I could activate the black bead, the ghost disappeared.

At this time, Su Bowen floated in from the window and said, "He just wanted to ask you if you have done what you promised them last time. Why are you angry?"

I rolled my eyes at him and said, "In the middle of the night, a blue-white ghost floated in front of me and almost scared me to death. And you're telling me why I should be angry?"

Su Bowen sighed and said, "My body has not been found yet, and I am not in the mood to care about their affairs."

At this point, I suddenly thought of the porcelain vase, and couldn't help asking, "Where on earth did you go that day? I never found you afterwards."

Su Bowen said unhappily, "It's easy for you to say that. The porcelain bottle fell out of your sleeve after you rolled down the passage that day. The restrictions in the imperial mausoleum are very strict, and I couldn't get out at all. Fortunately, when the tomb guards entered the imperial mausoleum to search, they found the porcelain bottle and took it out of the imperial mausoleum. I found a chance to escape. Otherwise, haha, I'm afraid I will have to stay in the imperial mausoleum for the rest of my life."

I stuck out my tongue and said, "I'm so sorry. Actually, I didn't mean to do that. I didn't know what happened at the time and I went crazy. What I did and what I saw were different from what others saw, you see."

I stretched out my tightly wrapped hands and said, "I also dug a grave and nearly cut off my fingers."

Su Bowen looked at my hands, pondered for a while, and said, "It's true that I can't blame you for what happened that day. A very powerful soul in the imperial mausoleum used its soul power to lead you into the imperial mausoleum. If it were someone else, it would be easy to lose their mind under the traction of such a powerful soul power. But after you woke up, you were no different from a normal person, which shows that your soul power is also very strong, so you will not be assimilated by other ghosts."

"Soul power pulling?" I thought about it and said, "So, the two snow wolves I saw that day were also transformed by Bai Qianqian?"

Su Bowen nodded and said, "It's very likely."

I couldn't help but exclaim: "She is really amazing."

Su Bowen agreed and said, "Of course she is powerful. The soul power that is pulling you is just the last bit of her soul power left in the world. If her soul is still there, all the souls in the world will obey her orders, and she can even build a palace for you."

No wonder Bai Qianqian said that if I didn’t show up, her soul power would dissipate. It turns out that that was not her real soul.

Logically speaking, Bai Qianqian is so powerful. After her last bit of soul power entered my body, I should have awakened some special skills. But why can't I sense anything?

Seeing that I was distracted again, Su Bowen couldn't help but come over and slap me on the head!

His slap actually made me feel real pain!

I was stunned by the photo, and it took me a while to realize that I was hit by a ghost!

I was so angry that I sat up and pointed at Su Bowen and said, "Aren't you a ghost? How can you hit me?"

Su Bowen raised his hands proudly and said, "I have soul power too, okay? It's just that I used up all my soul power in one go. Hehe, this feels really good. I actually slapped the messenger of hell. This will be enough for me to brag about for many years when I go to the underworld."

"It has been able to blow for many years, right?" I secretly urged the black bead, and the overwhelming devouring power came along, scaring Su Bowen so much that he screamed "Ah" and floated to the roof.

Su Bowen was so scared that he trembled and said, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have hit you. Can you forgive me once? Besides, if I die, you won't have such a loyal ghost to work for you!"

I gritted my teeth and said, "No need."

Su Bowen was pinned to the roof, watching the devouring power getting closer and closer, and he shouted in fear: "Don't you want to know about Madam Zhao's situation?"

Gui Lanting was indeed my weak spot. I instantly came to my senses when I heard the name.

I said sinisterly, "You better say it in a nice way, otherwise I will cut you into eight pieces and then eat you slowly."

Su Bowen patted his chest and said, "Don't emit such terrifying power all the time. It's really too scary."

After Su Bowen finished speaking, he slowly floated towards me and sat in front of me in a hovering position. From the look of him, didn't he seem to be afraid of me at all?

Su Bowen slowly said, "Today, His Majesty came to tell you that Madam Zhao was about to die. In fact, it was a statement to the outside world."

"What?" I looked at Su Bowen in surprise and said, "Are you saying that His Majesty lied to me?"

Su Bowen shook his head and said, "Your Majesty not only deceived you, but also wanted to deceive the whole world."

I frowned and asked, "What does it mean?"

Su Bowen said, "I had nowhere to go these past few days, so I looked for you everywhere. Finally, I found you in the palace with great difficulty. But you were unconscious all day long, and I couldn't wake you up even if I called you. I was really bored, so I had to wander around in this palace. I didn't expect to hear some news."

"What news?" I asked quickly.

Su Bowen said, "That day I floated to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. I originally wanted to chat with a young eunuch in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Who knew that I happened to hear His Majesty and the eunuch saying that the capital was about to be in chaos and that General Zhao had to be recalled to the capital to quell the chaos. The eunuch asked His Majesty why he was summoning General Zhao back to the court. His Majesty said that Madam Zhao was ill, so this was the right reason to summon General Zhao back to the court."

I was stunned when I heard this. I was so happy for nothing. I thought Gui Lanting was really going to die. It turned out to be Zheng Xian's plan.

I asked solemnly, "Did you hear anything else?"

Su Bowen shook his head and said, "Later, the little eunuch came to play with me, and we left with the little eunuch."

I couldn't help but roll my eyes and said, "I haven't seen you accomplish anything serious, and you're already a ghost, yet you're still busy having fun."

When Su Bowen heard this, he said slyly, "You don't know, there are so many gossips in this palace. I just took a look and found that there were stories of adultery and incest. It was so exciting that I regretted entering the palace so late."

I covered my head with my hands as if I had a headache. There is only one emperor in the palace, but there are hundreds of beauties in the harem. Some of them might not be able to bear the loneliness and have an affair. But I didn't expect that Su Bowen had only been in the palace for a few days and he had already found out all the gossip in the palace.

But now is not the time to pry into gossip. I want to know what Zheng Xian is planning and what role I play in it.

But Su Bowen was not a reliable person. He died at a mischievous and playful age. It would be harder than climbing to the sky to ask him to keep an eye on Zheng Xian for me.
