This thought flashed through Yun Shang's mind, and she hugged herself with her hands in horror. As if this could resist the terrifying female ghost!
The woman in palace clothes huddled in the corner and made the same move as her.
There was no mirror in front of her. Otherwise, Yun Shang would really think that she was looking in the mirror. She was dominated by extreme fear, and her teeth kept chattering: "You, don't come over."
"I'm just an ordinary palace servant. Why did you come to me?"
"Do you want money? I have accumulated five hundred taels of personal money for several years. I will give it all to you. Please let me go!"
Yun Shang was crying as she spoke, two lines of tears falling from the corners of her eyes. Her hands were already tightly wrapped around herself.
The woman in palace attire opposite did not make the same move again, her eyes were fixed on Yun Shang's movements and subtle changes in her expression.
Yun Shang cried for a while before she came to her senses.
No, this person is not a ghost.
Ghosts have no shadows. The person opposite has a shadow on the ground. Moreover, from the moment she cried and begged for mercy, the woman opposite became silent and looked at her with creepy eyes.
An indescribable chill surged from the bottom of my heart.
Yun Shang asked tremblingly: "Who are you? Why did you come to me?"
The person opposite finally opened his mouth and said something different: "You must answer every question I ask you. If you tell a lie, I will kill you immediately."
The voice is still the same as hers.
Yun Shang swallowed, her throat tight: "What do you want to ask?"
"what's your name?"
"My name is Yun Shang."
"how old are you?"
"Twenty-two years old."
"Who is your master?"
"It's Yu Mei from Luomei Palace."
The question was very simple. Yun Shang almost blurted it out, and her tense nerves relaxed a little. The next questions were all related to Yun Shang herself. Such as what she likes to eat, what color she likes, and what clothes she wears.
Yun Shang answered them one by one, feeling confused and puzzled.
What is this person trying to do? What's the point of trying so hard to get her into this strange room and asking these innocuous things?
"How long have Yu Mei and Han Wang been together?" the woman opposite asked naturally.
Yun Shang reflexively replied: "More than two years..."
As soon as the words came out, he realized something was wrong and hurriedly changed his words: "What nonsense are you talking about! Yu Mei and His Highness the King of Han have only met each other a few times, how could they be lovers? OK. You are framing the Queen's innocence!"
The woman in palace clothes stared at Yun Shang and continued to ask unhurriedly: "Yumei has been taking medicine, not to regulate her body. In that medicine, there is a medicinal material that, if taken for a long time, has the effect of avoiding children. Is it true or not?"
Yun Shang felt as if she had been stabbed in the temple by a golden needle, with a look of shock and fear on her face.
The woman in palace clothes continued: "Meng Taiyi is a member of the Han Dynasty, and he has been treating Yumei. Today, Meng Taiyi went to Luomei Palace and prescribed a prescription to dispel wind and cold. In fact, he did not diagnose Yumei's pulse at all. Because
, Beauty Yu is not suffering from cold, but her menstrual period is more than ten days late and she is pregnant."
"The child in Yu Mei's belly must be His Highness the King of Han's!"
Yun Shang's mind went blank, and she vaguely heard a hysterical cry for help: "Come on, come on, come on, save me! There's a ghost!"
This was the last sound she made.
…
In the evening, the sky is getting dark.
The palace maids from each palace in the harem went to the imperial dining room to receive dinner for their lord and son. The concubines in the harem had different grades, and the specifications of the dinner were also different.
The servant in the imperial dining room had the sharpest eyes. When he saw a fair and charming palace servant, he hurriedly smiled and came forward: "Aunt Yunshang, Lady Yumei's dinner has been prepared a long time ago."
Yun Shang nodded slightly, said nothing more, and left carrying a three-tiered food box.
The chamberlain looked at Yun Shang's enchanting figure and couldn't bear to look away for a long time.
The chamberlain on the side laughed mockingly: "It's useless to be greedy. This Yun Shang is the personal maid of the master of Luomei Palace. Even if I want to find the right food, I won't look down on you."
"I just watched it to satisfy my craving."
"Bah! If you don't have descendants, how can you satisfy your cravings?"
When the chamberlains are together, they talk nonsense so there is no need to elaborate.
Yun Shang heard something vaguely, but didn't take it to heart at all. Carrying the food box, she returned to Luomei Palace unhurriedly.
The palace guard guarding the palace gate called Aunt Yunshang diligently.
Yun Shang nodded reservedly and walked over proudly.
It is normal for the master's most trusted confidant to have her eyes raised to the sky. The palace guards guarding the palace gate continued to laugh with her and watched Yun Shang go away.
The bedrooms in the harem were different in size, but the regulations were similar. Yun Shang slowed down quietly, glanced at it, and then stepped forward, arriving exactly outside Yu Meiren's bedroom.
Yun Shang knocked on the door and said softly: "Madam, it's time for dinner."
After a long while, a nasally voice came from the door: "Come in."
Yun Shang pushed the door open, closed it, and bolted the door. Then she placed the food box on the table. At this time, the light in the bedroom was quite dim.
Fortunately, she had very good eyesight, and after a few glances without revealing any trace, she understood clearly. She walked to the palace lantern in the corner, fumbled for a fire stick and lit it, and the palace lantern quickly lit up.
The gauze moved, and one hand lifted it up, revealing a face that was crying: "Yun Shang, where have you been? Why haven't you come back?"
She is still so beautiful in such an embarrassing state. No wonder she was able to charm the King of Han so much that he even dared to touch his own father's woman.
"Yun Shang" was stunned in her heart. She stepped forward lightly and helped Yu Mei to sit upright on the bed. She replied in a low voice: "I sent Doctor Meng back to the Tai Hospital. When I came back, I met a man from Cining Palace.
The palace servants were chatting with the slaves. The slaves had to make excuses, which wasted time."
The palace servants around Empress Dowager Cao had to be flattered and perfunctory.
Yu Meiren cried intermittently all afternoon, her eyes were as red and swollen as peaches, and her voice was hoarse: "From now on, you stay with me and don't go anywhere."
"Yun Shang"'s eyes also turned red, and she shouted "Empress".
This affectionate cry made Yu Mei feel sour and desolate, and she couldn't help crying again. Yun Shang cried with her master.
Yu Meiren was not in the mood to eat, so she was persuaded by Yun Shang and reluctantly took a few mouthfuls. Her stomach turned again, and she retched for a few mouthfuls, and then vomited it all.
Yun Shang had no choice but to help Yu Meiren, who looked miserable, to lie down.
Beauty Yu stared blankly at the ceiling of the tent, raised her right hand and placed it on her lower abdomen, unable to cry anymore.
Yun Shang whispered: "The medicine prescribed by Imperial Doctor Meng has to be fake. I will go and boil the medicine for you."
Yu Meiren responded slowly, and after a moment, she hummed. When Yun Shang stood up, she suddenly said: "Yun Shang, a month ago, you also served the King of Han. Is there anything strange about your body?"
