Chapter 43 Just One Wrong Move

Things cannot become ghosts after death, so why can only people become ghosts?

The story of the small table seems to explain why.

After going crazy, the small table was taken away, and no one knew where it was taken.

But Li Xuan believed that he would never come back.

The so-called "truth" began to spread in the harem, and the anxious people seemed to have received the best comfort.

There is nothing better than the story of evil being punished.

Later, the palace invited several Taoists to perform rituals in Yanqu Hall to comfort the spirit of Nangong Cairen in heaven.

Everyone participated in the ceremony that day, and it seemed that after this, Nangong Cairen had no reason to resent.

In fact, as they thought, the rumors of hauntings quickly subsided, and the palace returned to its former peace.

Everyone was no longer anxious and began to have the leisure to continue intrigue.

...

One day, Li Xuan came to Yanqu Hall to find Deng Weixian, but accidentally ran into the scene of bullying in the harem.

In a corner of the backyard, a maid was being bullied.

A group of maids were surrounding her, punching, kicking, stripping, pinching, and humiliating her.

The maid who was beaten up protected her head and knelt on the ground, her hair disheveled, making it difficult to see her face.

"I told you to be pretentious, arrogant, and unreasonable..."

"Talented, right? Miss Guan, right?"

"Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, have you heard of it?"

"This is called the turn of events, you are also a maid now, and you dare to be arrogant with us!"

"I can't beat you to death."

"Sister Feng is powerful and eloquent, this little bitch probably hasn't heard so many good words in her life."

"..."

The bullied maid held her head and sobbed softly, not even daring to cry loudly.

Li Xuan was no stranger to such scenes.

There were few people in the palace who were not mentally abnormal.

The powerful bully the weak, and the pressure is downward.

The powerless gather together and bully the lonesome.

Here, the darkness in everyone's heart is like a flame that will never go out, constantly engulfing one person after another, using them as fuel to make the flame burn more vigorously.

"Dad, save me..."

Li Xuan wanted to leave at this point, but he found the voice familiar.

"Your father has been banished from the capital and will never be an official. Are you still counting on him to save you?"

"Liang Chuchu, wake up!"

The strong palace maid known as Sister Feng stepped forward and grabbed Liang Chuchu's hair and lifted her up from the ground.

Li Xuan was shocked when he saw the face covered with bruises.

"It's really Liang Chuchu, what happened to her?"

"Didn't they say she was only punished to be a maid for one month?"

"How dare these maids bully her?"

"And what about her father being banished from the capital?"

"Why haven't I heard anything about it!"

Li Xuan's questions came one after another, and he even suspected that he had gotten too angry this morning.

"It hurts, it hurts..."

"Let me go."

Liang Chuchu had never been treated like this before, and she was in pain and fear, with tears streaming down her face, crying for mercy.

But the more pitiful she was, the more relieved the maids who bullied her were.

"Hmph, when you used to beat and scold us, we begged for mercy, did you listen?"

"Begging for mercy now, bah!"

Sister Feng spat a mouthful of thick phlegm on Liang Chuchu's face, and then threw her to the ground fiercely.

"You will always be a maid in the future, and we sisters will naturally treat you well."

"Go and get the chamber pot!"

Hearing this, Liang Chuchu's face suddenly flashed with panic, and she kept shouting: "No, no..."

She struggled to get up and run away, but Fengjie stepped on her back and couldn't move.

"What are you afraid of?"

Fengjie looked down at Liang Chuchu, her heart full of joy.

Just a few days ago, she was wantonly humiliated and beaten by Liang Chuchu because she was fat.

Now that God has given her the opportunity to vent her anger, she will naturally retaliate a thousand times.

"Today your job is to clean the chamber pot, just like what Wang Cairen said before, if you can't clean this chamber pot so that it can be used as a mirror, you can't think of eating."

Fengjie was obviously deliberately making things difficult for Liang Chuchu.

Their chamber pots are all made of wood, and no matter how they are cleaned, they can't be used as mirrors.

In the past few days, Li Xuan was in a bad mood, so he didn't come to Yanqu Hall to steal Liang Chuchu's food.

Unexpectedly, Liang Chuchu was really unlucky. Without Li Xuan, she couldn't even have a full meal.

Feng Jie and the others were not as dignified as Wang Suyue. After saying that, they stepped back and poured all the sewage in the toilet on Liang Chuchu.

"Let me give you some fertilizer, as your breakfast."

Liang Chuchu screamed in fear and almost fainted.

Feng Jie and the others were still not satisfied, so they smashed the empty chamber pot on Liang Chuchu's dirty body, laughed triumphantly and left.

"Clean the floor for me too, if anyone finds it, I will feed it to you in the future!"

"Hahaha, sisters, let's go!"

Li Xuan silently watched everything happening in front of him on the wall.

After everyone left, Liang Chuchu struggled and crawled out of the pool of sewage and filth with great effort.

But she had used up all her remaining strength just by crawling forward a short distance.

She crawled to a clean ground, lying there with lifeless eyes, tears flowing uncontrollably, leaving tiny clean lines on the dirt on her face.

In the end, the only thing that was still clean on her body was her tears.

There must be something hateful about pitiful people.

At this moment, Li Xuan understood the meaning of this sentence personally.

Looking at Liang Chuchu struggling out of the filth, he actually didn't want to be involved with Liang Chuchu anymore.

At first, Li Xuan hated this woman.

If he had a way to kill her silently without taking risks, Li Xuan would have done it long ago.

Liang Chuchu wanted to use Jingyang Palace as a stepping stone, and she didn't hesitate to harm Ankang and Yu'er, poor girls who had nothing to do with her.

In Li Xuan's opinion, Liang Chuchu's death was not a pity.

So during this period, as long as he found an opportunity, he would tease and make things difficult for Liang Chuchu.

But now...

Li Xuan suddenly lost all interest in revenge.

Or, in his opinion, Liang Chuchu was more painful than death now.

At this time, Wei Chengji, the seal room eunuch of Yanqu Hall, came here.

He inspected as usual, and saw a figure lying on the ground from a distance.

"Emperor, Emperor..."

Liang Chuchu saw Wei Chengji, hope flashed in her eyes, stretched out her hand, and called out urgently with a hoarse voice.

Wei Chengji was stunned for a moment, and looked at Liang Chuchu.

But the next moment, their eyes met.

Wei Chengji turned his head away, pretending not to see it.

His face was gloomy, and he didn't say anything, but just left silently with the eunuchs accompanying him.

Liang Chuchu's outstretched hand suddenly froze in mid-air, and the glimmer of light that had just lit up in her eyes was instantly extinguished.

Wei Chengji quickened his pace and left the place quickly.

When he was sure that there was no more burning sight behind him, he stopped, closed his eyes, and his breathing became heavier.

Even though he had just solved the big trouble in Yanqu Hall, there was no joy on the face of this eunuch in the seal room.

Instead, the wrinkles on his face made him look more vicissitudes.

"I'm old, and my heart is soft."

"I'm afraid this palace is no longer suitable for me."

Wei Chengji opened his eyes again, looking at the Yanqu Hall in front of him, where he had been patrolling for many years, but suddenly felt a sudden sense of strangeness.
