After the founding of the People's Republic of China, she became a spirit and was punished, and

But for some reason, Chunshi seemed to be afraid of the light. He always lowered his head and covered his face with his hands, as if he would turn into ashes if he saw the sunlight.

Seeing that she was so uncomfortable and seemed about to faint, Xiyu looked around for a place that could be sheltered from the light.

Seeing a towering rockery in front of her, she immediately decided to go there to rest for a while.

Without the sunshine, Chunshi became somewhat listless again. After Xiyu approached her and looked at her carefully, his heart was filled with sorrow.

"Have you asked Qiu Xu to check if there is anything wrong with your body?"

There was concern in her voice; they had grown up together, so she naturally didn't want anything to happen to anyone.

"Qiu Xu checked it out. She said it might be caused by deficiency of heart and spleen. She prescribed some medicine but it didn't seem to help."

The sound in spring is as small as a mosquito, giving people a lifeless and weak feeling.

And he looks nervous and can't stand the slightest fright.

"you……"

Xi Yu was just about to say something when he heard a faint rustling sound coming from nearby, and soon he heard the sound of flints rubbing against each other.

She felt doubtful and put her index finger to her lips, signaling them not to speak.

Or the sound of the collision disappeared, followed by a smell of something burning.

"We are violating palace rules by doing this."

"But look at the state of Sister Chun Shi. It's obvious that she's been sucked of her essence and blood by a female ghost. I heard that Sister Xia Ying also started having nightmares a few days ago."

The voices of two little palace maids came from just across the wall from them.

When they heard their names, they were stunned at first, and then they listened more attentively.

"I heard that Harutoki only dreams at night, not during the day. Isn't it true that the female ghost only comes to the door late at night?"

"You're right." She said in a trembling voice, "But do you know who you should burn the paper money for? My mother once told me that when burning paper money, you must say the other person's name so that the other person can receive it."

"I have asked the maids I am familiar with in the palace. A maid named Yuan Liu was hanged in the East Third House. She was slandered as unclean and was wearing a red dress before her death..."

Having said this, the surroundings fell into dead silence, with only that person's voice echoing in their hearts.

Everyone listened in silence, feeling a chill in their hearts.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, as if penetrating their bodies, blowing on everyone's back, bringing a creepy chill.

Even Xiyu couldn't help but shiver, and goose bumps appeared all over her body.

[I didn't expect there are other people like us here. ]

Qi Xi was very interested in this matter and even urged her to go ghost hunting at night.

"Catch your head, you know how scarce the spiritual energy is in this era, and it's not easy for demons and monsters to take shape."

[It's not that there is a ghost, it's just that someone is deliberately trying to cause trouble. ]

That’s possible, Xiyu was just about to say something.

"what!!!!!"

Harutoki screamed, then held his head and shrank into a corner, shivering.

When she shouted, the two little palace maids who were burning paper money were also frightened and began to scream and shrink back.

In an instant, screams echoed throughout the East Third Institute.

Fortunately, it was noon and the yang energy was at its peak. If it was late at night, she would probably have suspected that there was a ghost.

Xiyu's heart was beating fast. She took a long breath and said calmly:

"Madam Su, Qiuxu, you two take Chunshi back first; Xiaying, go take those two little girls back to Danruoju."

The men moved quickly and quickly, but soon there was no one in the distance.

Before leaving, Xia Ying did not forget to take the paper money and the brazier and flint with her.

Inside Danruo Residence, Xiyu directly arranged Chunshi in her bedroom and did not ask anyone to send her back.

She asked Xia Ying to invite Doctor Zhao, and then sat at the top of the table, watching the two little palace maids kneeling on the ground and trembling.

I don’t know whether they are afraid of being punished according to palace rules or they are afraid of female ghosts.

"I have no intention of punishing you according to palace rules. You just need to tell the story again."

Xiyu rested her elbows on the table, her palms resting on the sides of her face, her voice very soft.

The little palace maid might have been frightened just now, so her voice was stuttering, but in summary, it was actually similar to what she said just now.

"In fact, people have died in every place in the palace, but the ways of death are different."

After listening to her whole story, Xi Yu comforted her softly, "Just now you said that the maid was wearing a red dress, but as far as I know, all the valuables of the maids would be confiscated after entering the palace, and every piece of clothing was worn by the maids, and there was no red in them. If she stole it..."

She dragged out her voice, deliberately exaggerating the atmosphere, "Stealing the mistress's clothes and hanging herself is a crime of disrespect. The family should be confiscated and the family should be exterminated. I have never heard of such a big thing in the palace, so it must be fake. You should put your heart at ease."

Xiyu smiled at them, and her smile seemed to carry endless warmth and kindness, making people feel close to her.

She asked Xia Ying to send the two back and granted them a day off, with the only requirement being that the matter should not be made public.

Looking at the two people leaving, there was a meaningful look in her eyes.

She actually didn't know whether this was true or not.

It’s just that...the two little girls who were cleaning the house looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old. They were still young. It would be a pity to waste such good years if they were frightened.

But what she was most certain of was that in the East Three Institute, apart from her and Qi Xi, two monsters who had become spirits, there were no other alien races.

After all, this is the imperial palace, the place closest to the emperor. Even Qi Xi can't stand the dragon aura of the emperor, so how could there be a female ghost?

It's more like someone is playing tricks.

Xiyu had a cold face and thought carefully about the key, but couldn't figure it out.

She walked to the bed and quietly focused her spiritual power on her eyes, scanning the color of Harutoki's energy. Although it did not turn into a deathly yellow, most of the energy around her body was not a healthy dark green.

"No, this state is wrong."

She is a thousand-year-old ginseng, and even if it is not intentional, a faint spiritual energy emanates from her body.

Chun Shi has been with her for so long, and they are basically together every day, there is no reason for him to be like this now.

Since something was unusual, there must be something wrong, she decided to go directly to Chunshi's room to take a look.

"Mammy and Qiu Xu, come with me."

Xiyu stood up, walked hurriedly to Chunshi's room, and looked around.

If it is not a natural cause, then Chunshi's daily nightmares and poor mental state must be man-made.
