"Why is it so noisy outside?"

Huo Weilou had just returned from the palace and was changing into casual clothes in the house. Suddenly he heard the bustle of people outside and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and ask.

Personal bodyguard Huo Xing was waiting outside the door with his sword in hand. Hearing the displeasure in the prince's voice, he immediately responded: "I'll go outside and have a look."

"No need to look. I know what's going on. Prince, can I go in?"

Huo Weilou inside the house recognized that this was Shen Xinyue's voice.

"Miss Shen, you can't go in." Huo Xing refused Shen Xinyue directly outside the door.

I haven't heard this voice in a few days, and I miss it a little bit?

Huo Weilou was a little annoyed by the sudden thought that came into his mind. Of course, he couldn't tell whether he was a little annoyed by this idea or whether he was a little annoyed by Huo Xing's decision-making without letting Shen Xinyue come in.

Slender fingers vigorously smoothed the clothes on his body. Huo Wei frowned, turned around and said, "Come in!"

The door creaked open. Huo Weilou wanted to wait for Shen Xinyue to come in and ask what was going on outside, but the moment he saw her, his words suddenly changed to, "What are you doing?" What were you going to do?"

I saw Shen Xinyue in front of me. She completely lost the elegant posture and dress of the young lady from a wealthy businessman in the south of the Yangtze River. She was only wearing a coarse cloth cross-collar skirt, and a coarse cloth robe was tied to her belt. There was something unknown inside. Heavy; both feet were covered with weeds and mud, one hand was holding a handful of unknown weeds, the other was holding a sickle, and was wiping the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand.

By the way, she was also carrying a bamboo basket on her back. She was actually carrying a basket on her back!

For a moment, the two people in the room stared at each other!

Huo Xing, who came in just after Shen Xinyue, stretched out his hand to stop her, "Your Majesty, she has in her hand——"

Before he finished speaking, after seeing Huo Weilou's look that seemed to be murderous, he wisely withdrew and closed the door.

It was Shen Xinyue who spoke up first, interrupting the momentary embarrassment in the room, "My lord, your jaw is about to drop to the floor."

Is she so shocking? She looked so frightened that he looked like he had seen a ghost.

Huo Weilou put away his uncontrollable expression for a moment and repeated his question, "What are you doing? Why are you dressed like this? How decent are you!"

Shen Xinyue curled her lips and did not answer. Instead, she walked to the Eight Immortals table, put down the unknown pile of grass and sickles in her hands, then turned around and motioned to Huo Weilou to help her take off the basket.

The picture is a little weird.

The regent, who had always been majestic and dignified, actually helped Shen Xinyue take off the backpack behind her so naturally and gently.

Shen Xinyue felt relieved after shedding her burden. She poured herself a glass of water and drank it down before answering Huo Weilou's question, "I went to the mountains to collect herbs. You don't know, I gained a lot today. Look, this But there is a superior detoxifying herb that is rarer than Millennium Ginseng, and its name is Blood Green Grass. Despite its ordinary name, its efficacy is many times that of other herbs."

Huo Weilou looked in the direction she pointed. It was the unknown handful of grass she was holding in her hand just now. This thing was indeed something he had never seen before.

"What are you carrying in that bag?" Huo Weilou gestured towards her waist.

"Ye Ming Sha." Shen Xinyue had an expression that you know.

Huo Weilou really regretted asking this question, and his expression was extremely ugly. However, he softened his attitude when he thought that she took such pains to collect the herbs to detoxify herself, "You collected these herbs to detoxify me." ?”

"It depends on the situation. It's just for emergencies." Shen Xinyue didn't care. Anyway, she had nothing else to do. She would be bored to death staying in this house every day, so she had to do something related to her major. Something happened.

The corners of Huo Weilou's mouth twitched fiercely, is it so difficult for you and other women to learn to please me?

"Let's get down to business. Didn't you ask why it was so busy outside?" Shen Xinyue didn't notice Huo Weilou's expression and started to pack the herbs in the basket.

"Why?"

"When I came back just now, I happened to see your old princess bringing back a Buddha statue and mobilizing troops." Shen Xinyue thought of the grand occasion she just saw at the door and burst into laughter.

"Invited a Buddha statue?" Huo Weilou was indeed a little surprised.

"Yes. I guess you don't know that the mansion is very busy these days when you are not here."

Shen Xinyue kept busy with her hands, and then raised her head from time to time to see Huo Weilou's reaction. Seeing that he was seriously waiting for her answer, she continued: "It is said that some weird things have happened in the palace in the past few days. It made those people panic."

"It is rumored?" Huo Weilou is very obedient.

Shen Xinyue, "Yes! According to rumors, because I didn't see it with my own eyes, since you entered the palace, I have gone out to collect medicine every day. These so-called weird things were all told by the servants when I came back. For example, the old man All the koi in the princess's pond suddenly died. For example, the outside of the ancestral hall was crawling with ants, and these ants even displayed the word "disaster". For example, one of the servants on duty in the middle of the night bumped into a cat without a tail. Things like that. So they were all very afraid, and then the old princess invited a Buddha statue to sit in the mansion, probably to suppress the evil spirits."

"Them? Aren't you afraid?" Huo Weilou raised his eyebrows.

"What's so scary? It's either a coincidence or a trick." Shen Xinyue shook her head. In these days, people only scare themselves, and they have too little scientific knowledge.

"I advise you to be more careful. This kind of thing has never happened in the house before. Now that it is happening one after another, I guess there may be some conspiracy behind it."

Although the words did not sound emotional, Shen Xinyue seemed to see a worried look in Huo Weilou's eyes, and she suddenly wanted to tease this cold guy, staring at Huo Weilou with her big eyes flickering, and asked in a low voice Said: "Are you concerned about me?"

Huo Weilou: "..."

This woman is too bold to speak out so bluntly, isn't she shy?

"What kind of expression is this? If you care, then admit it. Why are you staring at me?" Huo Weilou was getting more and more embarrassed, but Shen Xinyue refused to let him go. She was so angry that Huo Weilou fluttered his sleeves and seemed to run away. The ground went out.

The next morning.

As usual, Lan Qingruo brought her maid Zhuer to the old princess's courtyard to pay her respects.

When the old princess saw Lan Qingruo, she smiled brightly and kept praising her: "Let me tell you, she is indeed a rich young lady trained by the Taifu's family. Ever since she entered the palace, she has been coming to my courtyard every day to pay her respects. All the rules are followed. It’s not like that little guy from a small family who doesn’t have any etiquette. He hasn’t shown his face since the last time, so it won’t be on the table.”

Hearing the old princess scolding Shen Xinyue again, Lan Qingruo felt happy from the bottom of her heart, poured a cup of tea, gently handed it into the old princess's hand, and whispered slowly, "Now that I have entered the palace, I followed Zi Yao. , Qingruo is the daughter-in-law of the princess. It is the duty of the daughter-in-law to serve tea to her parents-in-law every day. This is not only a etiquette that wealthy families like us should know, but is also indispensable even for ordinary people's families, otherwise wouldn't it be an eyesore? There are no in-laws here anymore.”

The implication is that Shen Xinyue, who is also the daughter-in-law, if you don't come, you just don't take the old princess seriously.

What kind of person the old princess is, she can naturally hear the implication behind these words, "Humph, sooner or later she will know who should be in her eyes and who should be ignored."

The old princess drank all the tea in the cup. As soon as the tea cup was handed over to the nanny next to her, a person hurried from outside. Seeing her panic, she immediately became unhappy and said, "You unruly thing, run away." What? Is there something chasing you?"

The man came and knelt down in front of the old princess with a plop, his eyes full of fear, "I'm reporting to you, princess, today I went to clean the Buddha statue room. When I was cleaning, I saw that the Buddha statue turned out to be..."

"What happened?" the old princess asked impatiently.

The man almost burst into tears, "A lot of blood and tears flowed from the eyes of the Buddha statue!"

This is really unheard of. The servants looked at each other, with horrified expressions on their faces.

"This is strange. The house has been really uneasy recently. Not only are there horrible incidents happening one after another, but today even the Buddha statue invited by the princess is rarely spared. Princess, I think it is better to invite a master to give it to you. Let's do some divination. If there is any trouble in the house, it's better to know it as soon as possible and make arrangements as soon as possible." Lan Qingruo waited for the people to stop whispering and took the initiative to advise.

Lan Qingruo's expression was natural, but the expression of the maid Zhu'er behind her did not escape the old princess's eyes. The old princess was sure that this matter had something to do with Lan Qingruo, and it would be nice to have her instigating something behind her back. But it would be better to use her hands to get rid of the people you want to get rid of.

The old princess then approached Lan Qingruo and said, "The master Qingruo said is 100% sure to accomplish this? Get rid of the trouble?"

The bad guys also have the same intentions. How could Lan Qingruo fail to hear what the old princess said? She is not stupid, "Actually, Qingruo doesn't understand this either. But recently I heard the maid Zhu'er talk about a master, This is what I just thought of.”

Maid Zhu'er listened to the opportunity and immediately stepped forward to take over the words, "Reporting to the old princess, in the past few days, when Zhu'er went out to offer incense, she met a master in the temple. This master can be said to have great magical powers. Not only The Yin and Yang Mansion is very good at seeing people, and it is said that it is also very effective in exorcising ghosts and breaking curses. Many people can’t hire him even if they want to.”

"Okay, then I will send Grandma Li to follow Miss Zhu'er to invite this master with great magical powers to come to the mansion to perform some rituals and make the house clean." The old princess motioned to Grandma Li, Aunt Li nodded and accepted the order.

Seeing that her goal was achieved, Lan Qingruo let out a breath and calmly picked up the tea in front of her and took a sip.

The old princess remained silent and smiled, thinking that the rich daughter of the Tutor's family was indeed very shrewd. She knew everything in advance so that she would not do stupid things and get into trouble in the future.

The main courtyard of the palace.

Shen Xinyue crossed her arms across her chest and watched the servants coming in and out of the mansion. She was very busy and fell into deep thought.

Please master!?

What kind of nonsense is this?!

I just invited a Buddha statue yesterday, and the Buddha’s eyes were filled with blood and tears. Today I started to invite the master!

It seems that as Huo Weilou said, there might be some conspiracy behind it.

No, you can't be beaten passively.

Shen Xinyue turned her bright eyes and had an idea in her mind.

Midnight time.

Dressed in black, he walked through the ancestral hall to investigate, and then entered the old princess's courtyard. Just as he walked to the edge of the pool, he suddenly heard footsteps in the distance, but there was no obstruction around the pool...
