"Hahahahahahahaha... Miss, come here quickly and take a look. The apricot tree we planted three years ago is in bloom!" Fenhe clapped her hands happily and happily directed at Xia Ling inside the wing door.

Yue shouted.

"Really? Let me take a look too!" With that, she put down the embroidery bandage in her hand and walked out quickly.

"Miss, didn't Aunt Sun, the lady who sold the saplings to us, say that it will take at least five years for this fruit tree to bloom?"

"Yes! Could it be that the soil in our yard is good?" Xia Lingyue said thoughtfully.

"Maybe it's because of the recent rain?" Fen He bent over and quietly pulled up weeds on the ground.

"Hey...Miss, why is the soil under this tree so new? Could it be that someone came to dig it up?" Fenhe fiddled with the mud at the foot of the tree.

"Yes! What's going on?" Xia Lingyue couldn't help but squat down and start playing with Fen He.

"Look, this seems to be..." Fenhe's muddy fingertips brought out a looming piece of rag.

"Oh! Miss, look there are rags here!" Fenhe shouted in surprise.

"Where is it? Let me see! Let me see!" While Xia Lingyue was still talking, Fen He could see that Fen He had already gently pulled the piece of cloth out of the mud.

"Miss, look! This piece of cloth is quite long."

Seeing the cloth mixed with mud in Fen He's hands getting longer and longer, she could only stand up. Xia Lingyue could see the faint patterns on part of the cloth, which felt very familiar.

"Eh? Fenhe, why do I feel like I've seen this piece of cloth somewhere before?" Xia Lingyue frowned and thought hard.

"Oh! Miss, look, this is a long coat!" Fenhe pulled out all the cloth from the mud and spread it on the ground. Only then did she see the true appearance of the cloth.

"Ah? Look, isn't this the one that Jin's concubine often wears?" Xia Lingyue finally had a flash of inspiration in her head, and she remembered the reason for the familiarity.

"Little... miss... but... but it wasn't the Jin concubine who already... two years ago..." Fenhe

He began to tremble and became tongue-tied.

"Yes! Who else but Jin Concubine could wear such exquisite clothes?" Xia Lingyue scratched her head in confusion.

"Miss, more than that, who would bury this thing under the tree in our courtyard? Didn't Lady Jin have already..."

"Pink He! I said we should go get a hoe and dig around! See what is buried under this ground?"

"Miss, you go wash your hands first! Just leave it to me and Chunying." With that said, Fenhe had already stepped out of the wing door and gradually ran away.

"What's going on? Could it be that someone sneaked into my house quietly? What actions were taken?" A faint feeling of uneasiness surged into the back of her head.

She couldn't help but recall that two years ago, Concubine Jin passed away, saying she was seriously ill.

I remember that Aunt Peng and many maids and women gathered together to collect her belongings, saying that they were going to be put into the coffin and buried together with her! Why did her clothes appear under the ground in my courtyard? Besides, Jin

During her lifetime, the concubine had an aloof temperament and did not like to be like others in terms of food and clothing.

She was born into a wealthy family that has been proud of the textile industry for generations. I remember the day she first entered the gate of the Prince's Palace. Under her pink face as charming as a silver plate, she was tall and tall, as soft as a water snake, and as smooth as a porcelain vase.

With such an exquisite figure, one model is constantly changing every day, and the dazzlingly beautiful clothes are not only eye-catching in color, but also unique in workmanship!

With this capital alone, she stood out among the concubines and was extremely eye-catching.

Now that I think about it, I had thought about it for a long time back then for a set of exquisite and gorgeous clothes like the Jin concubines.

For this reason, she came to her door several times to request her. I remember that she originally asked the maid to measure her body, and she agreed to her request.

Unexpectedly, within a few days, the sad news came out that she was seriously ill and passed away suddenly.

Hey! What a twist of fate! Madam Jin! You still owe me a set of beautiful clothes! Hahaha! She thought of this silently and couldn't help but shook her head with regret and sighed.

Therefore, her clothes are exquisite and exquisite clothes with a unique style! At present, it seems that no one has ever imitated her.

So, could it be that...could it be said that the clothes of Empress Jin were buried in the coffin and could automatically swim underground?

Thinking of this, she looked around. Except for the long gown that was solidified by mud and spread out on the ground, there was no one around.

The courtyard of the wing was empty, and even the chirping of birds had echoes. The cold wind that drifted from the bamboo forest from time to time gradually made her feel chilly. She couldn't help but cross her arms and shiver. There were dense and low-pressure trees outside the wall.

The bamboo forest was swept by the wind, making strange whistling sounds.

She stared fearfully at the dark bamboo forest outside the wall. The more she looked, the more she felt that the dark bamboo forest seemed to be a strange human face, looking at her with an open mouth and a strange smile.

Thinking of this, her heart suddenly jumped into her throat, and her thin body trembled. She hurriedly turned around and fled into the side room, slamming the door shut, and tightened the door bolt.

....

"Miss! We are back! Miss! Where are you? Miss..." At this time, shouts came one after another outside the door.

Xia Lingyue, who was lying on the bed with her head covered and shivering, heard Fen He's shouting and hurriedly got up and ran to the door. Through the gap beside the door, she saw Fen He and Chun Ying each holding a handful of small sticks.

Hoe stood under the tree, facing the door of her wing.

"Oh! I...I'm in the room! You guys should be busy! I'm tired and I want to take a rest. Just tell me if you have anything to do. Just go and do whatever you need to do!"

"Oh! Okay then!"

........................................

She then quickly turned around and lay down on the bed, tossing and turning in boredom, and then drifted into sleep...

In the dream, she continued her previous actions, quietly leaning against the door frame of her wing.

Through the crack in the door, she saw Chunying turning sideways and hunching over, saying something to Fenhe. She pressed her ear against the crack in the door, but she could not hear their conversation clearly.

She felt a sense of curiosity in her heart that she couldn't hold back, like a group of lively carp in her arms. She turned back and looked at the closed window on the right side of the wing, and suddenly thought of something.

He walked over quietly and slowly opened the window that had not been opened all year round, because the window was located closest to the almond tree.

She quietly peered through the slowly opening gap under the window, holding her breath and peering in the direction of the almond tree.

She saw that Fenhe and Chunying had their backs to her at this moment, and they were both hunched over and digging at the soil under the apricot tree.

"Fenghe! You serve your master so hard and without complaint, haven't you thought about your future?" Chunying asked Fenhe boredly.

"Hey! I think I have thought about it, but what can I do? Haha! Who told us to be born bad?" Fenhe sighed.

"Do you want to change your destiny?" Chunying mysteriously moved closer to Fenhe.

"Change your destiny?" Fen He became confused: "How to change it?"

I saw Chunying looking around for a while, mysteriously taking out a package of something from her arms, and looking at Fenhe cautiously.

"I have a medicine here. You just need to use your fingernails like this every day..." As she said that, Chunying lightly brushed the ground with her fingertips.

"It doesn't have to be too much. You just need to sweep it with your fingernails every time and then shake it into her food like this! In less than a year, she will be covered in rot like a dead fish.

Die from the stench! Hehe... you know!"

At this time, Xia Lingyue, who was hiding under the window, suddenly heard a loud "bang" in her head. She was stunned and she covered her mouth tightly with her hands. She stared at the two slaves outside the window with wide, frightened eyes.

.

"But...this..." Fen He was a little nervous: "But, even if she dies, I will still be a maid! At the worst, I will have to change my master to serve her, maybe someone else will be replaced.

He is not as easy to serve as my old master!"

"It's okay! If you do as I say, I will teach you and make you look like your master, hehe! Then you will have endless wealth and glory! Your life will be better in the future, but

Don't forget me!" Chunying's voice suddenly changed at this moment, becoming ethereal and hollow, as if it was coming from the bamboo forest outside the wall.

"But...I...how can I become like my master?" The muscles on Fenhe's face jumped with excitement. She was both excited and trembling, and asked in a low voice.

.

"For example, like me! Hehehehehehe..."

Chunying suddenly raised her hand and tore off half of her face with a "swish". Her flesh and blood suddenly became bloody, and the plasma splashed all over Fenhe's face.

"ah!!!....................."

Xia Lingyue screamed and suddenly escaped from her dream to reality again. She was covered in cold sweat, panting heavily, and sat up with lingering fear.

"Oh my God! Fortunately it was a dream..."

"Miss! Miss! What's wrong with you? Open the door! Miss! Open the door quickly!..." At this time, there were rapid knocks on the door.

"Oh! I...I'm fine!" She looked out the paper window. It seemed that it was getting dark. Afraid of the dark, she hurriedly rolled over and climbed off the high bed, pulled on her shoes, and hurried over to open the door.

"Feng He! I..." She was halfway pushing the door bolt open when suddenly the hand opening the door froze.

Can I open the door so easily? What if...

Thinking of this, her uneasy heart suddenly began to pound.

Why not, let me explore the situation outside the door first!

She pushed the half-pushed door latch back in place.

She tiptoed and carefully reached under the window on the right, gently pushed the window open a crack, and fearfully peeked out.

"Hey! Fenhe! How about we go to dinner first? Don't disturb the lady now."

"Hmm! Okay! Maybe the lady has another nightmare!"

"Um......"

Xia Lingyue stared at the door of the outer wall nervously. After a while, she saw Fenhe and Chunying opening the door and going out. Her heart suddenly thumped and her lips suddenly moved, wanting to say something. After all,

No sound was made.

At this time, she saw Chunying turning around and closing the door, casting a strange look at her and smiling mysteriously.

"ah!......"

She was so frightened that she fell to the ground with a thud.
