Chapter 369 The thirty-fourth bowl of soup (1 & 2)
Do you know what is in the Wangchuan River?
Apart from countless ghosts, the Forgetful River is filled with all the dark sides that are suffocated in all conscious souls. Betrayal, hurt, sadness, pain, despair, tears, separation... Here, there are always only negative emotions.
Day after day after year, you can only stay in the river for endless time, eroded by darkness. This is the gift Qinghuan left to Leng Jue, which allows him to hear the real voice in the heart of human beings - but only malice, no kindness. This is what the female ghost Song Xing is bearing. What Leng Jue feels is just a drop in the bull. The female ghost Song Xing has to stay in this river for no reason, but Leng Jue only needs to last for a few decades. In the end, it is still a cheaper one.
Because the female ghost Song Xingheng made a kick, the ghost who should have arrived has been waiting on the Naihe Bridge. When Qinghuan came back, she saw the female ghost sitting at the table with a worried look on her face. She walked over and asked, "Why is the girl full of sorrow?"
The female ghost was slightly startled when she heard Qinghuan's voice, and then she was blessed with a blessing, "I have seen Miss Qinghuan."
"Please get up quickly, don't be polite." Qinghuan helped the female ghost up. "How do you know my name?"
"It was told by the young master Mo Ze." The female ghost answered slowly. Qinghuan went to see Mo Ze, but she didn't know when the little guy had already hidden. The female ghost looked at Qinghuan's face, afraid that she would blame Mo Ze, so she quickly explained: "Miss, please don't blame Mo Ze for the young master Mo Ze. It was me who took the initiative to ask, and he was--"
"It's okay, I don't mean to blame him." Qinghuan saw that the female ghost was timid, and she didn't want to scare her.
Hearing this, the female ghost was relieved. Then she looked at Qinghuan and asked, "I know that the ghosts who came here had obsessions that had not been fulfilled during their lifetime, and the girl could satisfy my wish, right?"
Qinghuan nodded: "Yes."
"Then, please help me, please save my brother!" The female ghost fell to the ground with a pounce and kowtowed to Qinghuan desperately. "I beg my girl to save my brother, please save him!"
"Get up first, I will naturally fulfill your wish, but what happened is that, and you still need to tell me slowly." Qinghuan was always soft-hearted. She helped the female ghost up. The two of them sat down at the table. Mo Ze appeared secretly next to her. Seeing that Qinghuan had no intention of getting angry, she stepped on her short legs and climbed up Qinghuan's thighs and sat in her arms. Her big watery eyes were also staring at the female ghost curiously. He had spoken to the female ghost, but only a few words, so he was always very curious.
Qinghuan looked down at Mo Ze helplessly, and the little guy also raised his little head, his big eyes full of desire. Qinghuan looked at him for a few seconds, pinched his soft little face, and agreed.
The female ghost bit her lip and said, "My name is Nanyan, I have an older brother named Nanshuang. Fifteen years ago, my father was falsely accused of treason in the enemy and treason. The emperor ordered the killing of nine clans and hanged his head to the public. The housekeeper and the wet nurse fought to the death to bring me and my brother out. The situation was urgent at that time, and we only had half a jade pendant on each other for future recognition. After the housekeeper took me away, he died of illness a few years later. I couldn't stay in his house, so I became a beggar and wanted to find my brother. By chance, I heard that my brother entered the palace and became a eunuch, so I thought to see him, afraid that he would assassinate the emperor with an impulse. But... But after I entered the palace, I found that my brother changed his temperament and he was no longer the older brother!"
"It is understandable that he has a deep hatred for blood and is forced to be a slave, his temperament has changed drastically," said Qinghuan.
The female ghost Nanyan smiled reluctantly: "I think so too, but I am just an ordinary little palace maid and I can't see him at all. My brother is now a celebrity around the emperor. He has great martial arts skills, but his personality is extremely eccentric and weird, and he kills people like a numb. I didn't know how he could make the emperor trust him at first, but later..." The female ghost Nanyan said this, and her blood and tears slowly slid down the corners of her eyes. "Later, I was attracted by Concubine Zhen and wanted to be a palace maid next to me. I thought I would have the opportunity to meet my brother in this way, but who knew, I accidentally heard Concubine Zhen talk to her confidant palace maid. They said that the emperor was a manly person, and my brother was very beautiful, so, so the brother could survive in the palace because of the emperor."
The female ghost Nanyan bit his lips tightly, and kept tears of blood and tears: "When I was very young, my brother said that he would join the army in the future, but now - now he is in such pain, I can't help him at all! Because he is too cruel and domineering, Concubine Zhen holds a grudge and asks him for his life. I wanted to tell him to be careful, but the guards found out that Concubine Zhen found a reason and killed me."
"Girl!" She grabbed Qinghuan's hand suddenly. "Please save my brother! He shouldn't be treated like this! My father's loyalty to the emperor and patriotism all his life, but his family was destroyed and the emperor harmed our family. I know that my brother was very sinful and killed many people, but he was not like this! Please, girl, save him, please!"
Qinghuan thought for a while and asked, "Do you want me to save his life or his soul?"
The female ghost Nanyan didn't understand the difference between the two, "I don't understand..."
"...Forget it." Qing Huan laughed and said, "I understand, don't worry."
After the two said a few more words, Xie Bi'an emerged from the bridge deck and led the female ghost Nanyan to Liwangtai.
Qinghuan stood up and looked at the calm and quiet Wangchuan River, then turned around and said to Mo Ze, "Stay obediently at home and don't mess around, otherwise you should be careful with your butt." He shouldn't have appeared in front of the ghost, and he shouldn't have talked privately even if he appeared. This was the first time, Qinghuan turned a blind eye, but if there was a second time, she had to consider whether to teach this little guy she was spoiled by her.
Mo Ze nodded like pounding garlic: "Don't worry, master, I will be good, very good!"
Qinghuan looked at him with a smile, not seemingly confident.
Soon, she left Naihe Bridge.
Because Nanyan is dead, and Qinghuan arrives after her death, Nanyan's body must be unusable. Coincidentally, she just appeared in the palace and learned that a palace maid had ended and would accidentally drown when she got up tomorrow night. Qinghuan waited until that time, and when the ghost left, she attached it to the palace maid.
What's more coincidental is that this little palace maid is a rough palace maid in the imperial kitchen. She was born with a pretty face. She only entered the palace for half a month and was taciturn by nature. After working in the imperial kitchen for half a month, no one knew what her name was.
What she has to do every day is to wash vegetables, wash vegetables, wash vegetables. Besides that, she doesn't have to do anything, but washing vegetables alone is very hard. The water in winter is cold and ice. When you put your hands in for a moment, it will be red and swollen. Qinghuan hasn't suffered this for many years. After passing through Song Xing's world, Qinghuan discovered that if she didn't use her power, that person would not chase after her. At the same time, if she did not choose a man to spend her life together, his soul would not awaken even if she followed her, and would only sleep quietly. So Qinghuan decided to - care about him, let it go, and she would let it go, and she didn't want to be wronged for others.
So, she directly made everyone think that her name was Qinghuan because she really didn't want to be Cuihua.
Then she will be lazy every time she washes vegetables - it is best not to work hard.
About three days later, Qinghuan finally got a chance to go to Zhenfei's palace. The female ghost Nanyan told her that because she was afraid that the half of the jade pendant would be seen, she did not dare to carry it with her, so she buried it in the room where Zhenfei's palace lived. There was also a palace maid living with her, but the palace maid was sleeping very hard.
Early in the morning, Zhenfei sent someone to stew a cup of snow-eared lotus seed soup. Since Zhenfei is now favored, the people in the imperial kitchen did not dare to neglect it. The stewed stove was already done, but no one came to pick it up in the palace of Zhenfei, and the imperial kitchen could not be sent out at this moment. The great imperial kitchen looked around and saw Qinghuan who was working hard to wash radishes, and quickly called her over. The little girl was usually timid, although she didn't speak much and was introverted, but their imperial kitchen was always harmonious, and most of them were elderly palace maids and eunuchs, so she was very good to Qinghuan.
But now there is no trick. If you don’t send it, the snow-eared lotus seed soup will be stewed in vain. The imperial chef asked Qinghuan to send it out for himself. First, as long as you send it over, someone will take over it. Second, the most important thing is that Qinghuan is just born with a straight facial features and beautiful appearance, not beautiful, and even if Concubine Zhen sees it, she will not feel resentful.
Qinghuan happily accepted the task. She walked towards the palace of Concubine Zhen with a tray. Along the way, she met many palace maids, and everyone was in a hurry. Here, the favored concubines were enjoying the glory and wealth. It would be great if these palace maids and eunuchs could save their lives and avoid being implicated.
The palace of Zhenfei was very quiet. Qinghuan first handed the snow-eared lotus seed soup to the palace maid in front of the palace, and then suddenly pretended to have a stomachache and asked the palace maid where the toilet was. The palace maid looked disgusted and told her that only the small room where the palace maid lived had a toilet. She pointed out the way and warned her to leave soon after the end, so she took the snow-eared lotus seed soup in.
Qinghuan thanked him and ran over quickly, looking very anxious.
The door was not locked. According to the female ghost Nanyan, Qinghuan quickly found the place where she hid the jade pendant, and took it out and put it in her arms.
Although she hasn't talked to people in the palace these days, Qinghuan roughly understood how cruel Eunuch Nan is from the intermittent conversations of the crowd. He heard that he was beautiful than a woman and was so charming that the emperor loved him very much and asked him to accompany him day and night. Qinghuan didn't know how many things were inappropriate to children in this, but the people in the palace just lamented that Eunuch Nan was trusted by the emperor and did not say that there were strange relationships between him and the emperor. So not many people might know.
Yes, if everyone knows, how can you survive? An emperor will not allow himself to break his sleeves and share his peaches and be known to everyone.
But it may be because of this that Eunuch Nan became particularly violent and bloodthirsty. I heard that once, a little eunuch washed his feet, but the water temperature was a little hot, so he ordered someone to water the eunuch to death with boiling water. Another time, a little palace maid accidentally hit him and was dragged out to death with a stick. The emperor knew about these things, but the emperor never said that, and he really regarded Eunuch Nan as his confidant. So even the ministers in the previous dynasty had worried that eunuchs would harm the country.
After Qinghuan hid the jade pendant, he heard a burst of weapons colliding and a woman's screams. One of the women's voice was extremely sharp, cursing the words "eagle dog" and calling himself the palace. Qinghuan thought that it should be the Queen Zhen Concubine.
What's going on? Should she go out?
Just as she was hesitating, someone heard her footsteps and shouted coldly: "Who is it? Let's get out!"
Although the voice was a little cold, it was clearly a man's voice, and he was very young, so he must be no longer the emperor.
Without hesitation, Qinghuan immediately jogged up and knelt on the stone slab in front of the hall, and was so confused that he didn't even dare to raise his head.
Concubine Zhen was still cursing loudly: "I don't believe it! The emperor wouldn't treat me like this! The eunuch! You are the successful villain! If you hadn't slandered me above the emperor, how could the emperor give me a cup of poisoned wine? You were you who harmed me! You were you who harmed me!"
The man smiled lightly, with an unknown meaning: "Empress, if you hadn't made the decision to attack me first, how could I attack you? You have to know that I, Nanshuang, have never been a person who repays me with grudges."
When Zhenfei heard this, she gasped. She thought she had already done the matter of discussing the attack on Nanshuang before, but she failed. Instead, she was killed by Nanshuang when she found out.
Nan Shuang walked slowly a few steps and stopped in front of Qinghuan. Qinghuan only saw the faint blue robe he was wearing, which was different from the ordinary eunuchs. It seemed that his position in the emperor's heart was definitely extraordinary. But he stopped in front of Qinghuan and asked, "There are 113 eunuchs and palace maids serving in the palace of Concubine Zhen. I have never heard of you. Who are you?"
Qinghuan didn't dare to raise his head and said, "I just came to the imperial kitchen to deliver snow-eared lotus seed soup to the empress."
"Snow Ear Lotus Seed Soup." Nan Shuang pondered for a moment and praised. "It's a good thing, but it's a pity that Concubine Zhen will never have the blessing to endure it again."
Qinghuan lay on the ground and did not dare to answer the conversation until Nanshuang asked her to raise her head. When she raised her head, she was shocked. Nanshuang had extremely beautiful phoenix eyes, and the dark eyes were deep and distant, but what was terrifying was that he actually had double pupils! Qinghuan was frightened by it, but she did not divert her gaze because she could see it.
Nanshuang is a blind man.
This big inner supervisor, the famous person around the emperor, and the powerful person who everyone is terrified of, turned out to be a blind man with double pupils!
At this point, Qinghuan can probably guess a little bit. Legend has it that people with double pupils are born with the will of an emperor. It would be fine if they were born in the royal family, but Nan Shuang was a minister. What does it mean if a minister had double pupils? Is this country going to be with the Nan family? The emperor is naturally very suspicious of them and cannot keep them alive.
But... even Qinghuan should praise Nan Shuang's rare beauty in the world. He was so beautiful that he was born with a very beautiful woman. That kind of beauty was not purely a woman's delicacy, but also had the heroic spirit and pride of a man. He was also outstanding in temperament. Such a beauty, let alone the emperor, could not even bear to hurt Qinghuan, who was used to being stunning.
There are really some people in this world who can be proud of the world just by relying on their beauty.
Qinghuan is, and Nanshuang is the same. If the two of them stand together, Qinghuan doesn't think the other party will lose a few points to him. However, such beauty is not a good thing for Nanshuang.
Nanshuang first praised the snow-eared lotus seed soup, and then said to the person behind him indifferently: "Send Concubine Zhen to the road."
The person behind immediately responded, Qinghuan knelt on the ground and heard the crazy roar and curse of Concubine Zhen: "Nan Shuang! You should be a castrated dog that should be killed by a thousand swords! I curse you! Sooner or later, you will beg the same as me and will not be able to do it! Go to hell! N will definitely go to hell! You beast! ** the castrated dog in the harem!"
Nan Yan didn't care about this. Qinghuan even raised a smile when he saw his mouth, as if he could force the noble concubine Zhen to this way.
Concubine Zhen cursed a few times, was filled with poisoned wine, kicked her legs a few times, and twitched a few times, and then she never moved again. No matter how much she was favored during her lifetime, she had no chance of winning against Nan Shuang.
Nan Shuang sighed as if compassionately and said to Qinghuan: "You said, what should I do with you?"
After hearing the words of Concubine Zhen, she naturally could not keep a living. Qinghuan watched the people around Nanshuang drag the palace maids and eunuchs one by one, and thought that they would be silenced.
There is nothing short of this palace, especially the palace maids and eunuchs. The lives of these people are not that valuable, especially in front of Nanshuang, who is covered with one hand.
Soon, someone came to catch Qinghuan. Qinghuan struggled hard to beg for mercy. After "accidentally", the half of the jade pendant in her arms fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Nanshuang narrowed her eyes and asked, "What's the matter? Take it to show me."
He did not look, but touched. When a eunuch respectfully brought the half of the jade pendant to his hand, Nan Yan touched it twice and shouted in dismay: "Bring her back!"
So Qinghuan was taken back again. The little palace maid was very petite and thin, so she really used it to carry it. And the guard who carried her was useless at all. Qinghuan was brought up by him like a little chicken, which was so relaxed.
She knelt in front of Nanshuang again. She raised her face and looked at the man who was changing his expression. At this moment, he reached out and came to touch her in a bit embarrassing way. First, she touched her hair, then her face, and her facial features finally slid down to her shoulders and pushed away the clothes on her shoulders. Qinghuan let him do this. Long before she got Cuihua's body, she changed her body to Nanyan's appearance.
However, he didn't expect that Nanyan asked her to save Nan Shuang's life, but in the end, Nan Shuang didn't need to save him. He was so powerful that he could protect himself, but he could save his life, but he could not save his heart.
"Xiaoyan...is it Xiaoyan? Are you Xiaoyan?!" Nan Shuang touched the slightly raised scar on Qinghuan's shoulder, her hands trembled, and even her voice was not as good as a sound.
He was already high above, with a calm cloud and a gentle wind, but his eyes were filled with tears. Qinghuan looked at him, and the beauty even looked very beautiful when she cried. The tears slid down from the corners of his eyes, which was so beautiful that it was impossible to breathe.
The emperor should have wiped out the Nan family, but he showed mercy to Nanshuang. Why? He said that he could not recognize Nanshuang and came to Qinghuan but did not believe it. Without saying anything else, he said that these double pupils were unique in the world, not to mention that Nanshuang had not even changed his name, and he was still called Nanshuang.
It can be seen from this that beauty is abusive.
Qinghuan tilted his head and looked at him: "Brother."
When Nan Shuang heard Qinghuan call him that, she quickly stood up and turned her back to Qinghuan, as if she didn't dare to let her see her like this. She didn't dare to talk to Qinghuan for a while. No one knew who he was, and he did all the bad things, and killed countless people, and always did whatever he wanted. Now the emperor thought he could not move in his palm, but he didn't know what raising a tiger was a disaster. Nan Shuang never forgot his sister for a moment. After he trained the group of secret guards at his hand, he ordered people to search everywhere among the people.
Their parents' appearance is just average, but Nanshuang and Nanyan are extremely beautiful. This is the root of disaster, not God's reward. Nanshuang wakes up from dreams countless times and thinks of her sister. He doesn't know that she has experienced this, so what about her sister? How will she live in wandering among the people?
She is his responsibility, he must find her, take care of her, and then take revenge.
But Nanshuang never thought that she would meet her sister on such an occasion. He had already thought about it. If she found her sister and her sister was not in good condition, he would let her live a good life. If her sister lived a good condition, he would not disturb her. In any case, he would not let her know her current identity, a toy, a child, and such a self... how can she face her sister who admired her since childhood?
Nan Shuang will never forget that when she was young, she said to her sister that when she was young, she would become a general. But now... what's ridiculous is that he was blinded and was cut off from the incense of the Nan family. He became a eunuch, notorious and notorious, but he met his sister!
Seeing that Nan Shuang seemed to be afraid to turn around and escape, Qinghuan stood up and grabbed Nan Shuang's robe from behind: "Brother!"
Nanshuang breathed gently.
"I went to the palace to find my brother." Qinghuan said, these were all things Nan Yan wanted to say, but she had no chance to say it again. The brother and sister were actually separated forever. "I heard that my brother was in the palace and couldn't feel at ease no matter how he was, so I thought that I must come in and see if my brother was doing well."
Chapter completed!
