Chapter 41

When Wang Yanqing heard this, he sat upright slightly: "As long as I can help the second brother, I will do anything. Is it a matter of the palace?"

Lu Heng nodded: "Yes. Maybe you don't know, some time ago, there were rumors of ghosts in the palace."

Wang Yanqing raised her eyebrows when she heard those two words, and asked in surprise, "Haunted?"

When Lu Heng went out late at night, she thought that something major happened in the military. She really didn't expect it to be haunted.

Lu Heng also felt outrageous. At this time, Lingxi came back with the cloak. Lu Heng took the cloak and put it on Wang Yanqing, saying, "You put it on first. These things can't be finished in a while. You are already cold, so don't catch a cold."

Lingxi brought a lotus-colored dark flower gauze cape. Although the color is simple, it is embroidered with flowers in various stitches, and the details are very particular. Wang Yanqing got up and put on the cape, and was about to sit down after closing the placket, but Lu Heng leaned over and tied the ties on the cape one by one.

Standing in front of Wang Yanqing, he blocked the lights behind him when he bent over, and a long shadow cast down, like a mountain, completely covering Wang Yanqing in an instant.

The cloak is different from the cloak. The cloak is wrapped around the body, but the cloak is like an enlarged coat, reaching the ankle, with wide sleeves and a straight collar, the left and right slits of the body, and the lace on both sides of the placket. Lu Heng's fingers are slender, with well-proportioned knuckles. Because he has practiced martial arts all the time, his hands appear to be thin and strong, but now those hands are shuttled through the women's belts, and the thin belts embroidered with dark flowers are knotted around his fingers, soft and soft. Dexterity, there is an indescribable fragrance.

Wang Yanqing was a little embarrassed and said, "Second brother, it doesn't matter."

Lu Heng seemed very patient at this time, he slowly tightened the last tie, because leaning over, his voice seemed to be ringing in Wang Yanqing's ear, especially clear and low: "I often go out in the middle of the night, You can sleep in peace in the future, don't wait for me."

"How can this be possible?" Wang Yanqing was as stubborn as Lu Heng in this regard. She was all about the affairs in the palace, and didn't bother with other things, she quickly asked, "Second brother, what's going on in the palace?"

Lu Heng sat next to Wang Yanqing and sighed in a low voice: "It's a long story. On the 29th of last month, when Empress Dowager Zhang woke up at night, she bumped into some unclean things in her bedroom. Empress Dowager Zhang was so frightened that she fell into a coma. She lay on the ground in the middle of the night, and was not discovered until the maid came in the next day. After the queen mother woke up, she fell ill. The imperial doctor prescribed medicine, but it was of no use. The queen mother felt suspicious when she saw everyone. She was scolded by her as a 'mean maid'. Since Empress Dowager Zhang met a ghost, the lights in Ciqing Palace were not turned off at night, and there were always people in the dormitory. On the fifth day of the second lunar month, five palace maids were on duty in the dormitory, and they heard outside the door in the middle of the night. Some people cried, but no one went out. Ciqing Palace panicked because of these things, rumors spread to the emperor's ears, the emperor was afraid of affecting the empress dowager Jiang's recuperation, and ordered me to find out the truth as soon as possible. "

Wang Yanqing pondered while listening, and asked, "The second brother entered the palace today for this reason?"

"Yes." Lu Heng sighed, resting his arms on the table, pressing his head against his eyebrows, "Today I spent the whole day in the Ciqing Palace. I asked for the specific details of that night on the 29th, but the Queen Mother Zhang was very I resisted and refused to recall. I went to check the traces and found that the haunted place was washed clean with water, not to mention the traces, not even a root dander. After all, Ciqing Palace is the Queen Mother's palace, and it is not convenient for us to stay for a long time. After dark, I locked the door and came out. I left people to patrol outside the Ciqing Palace, but tonight, I bumped into a ghost again. Jin Yiwei heard the screams inside and immediately opened the door, but when he rushed in, he found nothing. Outsiders approached Ciqing Palace, and no suspicious person was found in Ciqing Palace."
