"Your Highness, look, these were all scratched by Xiao Yu. When her corpse crawled up from the ground, she grabbed this concubine's arm. Her fingernails were very long, like knives. This concubine couldn't move, much less dare to touch her. This concubine wanted to push her away, but her body was covered in minced flesh. As soon as this concubine touched her, her flesh began to fall from her body. Her fingernails scratched my flesh. She said she wanted to kill me. She said … She said … She wanted to dissect my body while I was still alive … "
Wu Zhaoyi's voice was hoarse from crying. "Your Highness, I swear, I really didn't do anything bad. I beg you, please save me. I beg you to chase me out of the palace. I want to go home, I want to go home … sob sob sob …"
Was there really such a strange thing in this world?
Shuang Xi Guang was listening at the side, imagining the scene she was talking about. Her hair stood on end.
She subconsciously looked at Shen Yueji beside her, only to find that her face was calm. There was nothing strange at all.
"Your Highness?"
"Where is Xiao Yu's body now?"
"It's … it's …"
Wu Zhaoyi's frail body trembled again. "I deserve to die. At that time, Xiao Yu's corpse wanted to kill me. I was scared … scared … so I rushed into the palace and used fire to burn her to death … Imperial Concubine … the imperial harem is really haunted. It must be the ghost of the late Empress who died unjustly."
She didn't want to stay here anymore. She really didn't want to stay here anymore. She wanted to go home. She wanted to go home!
"Wu Zhaoyi, calm down."
"No … No … There must be a ghost in this harem … There must be … No wonder I've been dreaming about some strange things ever since I entered the palace. I can always dream of a ghost face with nails sticking to my face, and every time I sleep, we'll stick to each other …"
"The late Empress is dead. That is a fact. How can a dead person become a malicious ghost? If anyone who died a wrongful death would become a vengeful ghost after death, then the world would have long been in chaos. The late Empress had no enmity with Wu Zhaoyi, so why did she bother you after she became a malicious spirit? "
Facing Shen Yueji's words, Wu Zhaoyi fiercely shook her head: "I … I don't know … I don't know anything … I really don't know anything … I don't know why she's pestering me … I want to go home, Imperial Concubine Shen, I want to leave the palace. Anyway, I'm not favored, my father's official position is dispensable in the court. I beg you, let me out of the palace … I don't want to stay in the palace anymore, I will die … sob sob … I will definitely die …"
"It's easier said than done for an imperial concubine to leave the palace."
Shen Yueji glanced at her. "Wu Zhaoyi, even I don't have the ability to let you leave the palace safely. If you want to leave the palace, you can only go out lying down!"
Seeing the tears on Wu Zhaoyi's face, Shen Yueji sighed.
After what happened last night, it seemed that the harem was destined to not be peaceful.
She believed what Wu Zhaoyi said. In the harem, she didn't offend any imperial concubine. However, the other party targeted her first, and she was just a victim.
Maybe she resisted too much last night, otherwise, the one who died would not only be Xiaoyu, but also herself.
It was also possible that the other party deliberately let her go. The purpose was to make her afraid that the Empress would be flustered and spread this matter in the harem. The more the better.
Wu Zhaoyi's experience reminded Shen Yueji of the two-headed monster she met in Diaoyang Palace.
