"A few palace maids are killing people in Diaoyang Palace. They look like ghosts and some of them don't even have legs. Diaoyang Palace is filled with ghostly wails and howls all night long. This makes people suspect that it's the ghost of the late Empress?"
Hearing this, Shuang Xi nodded and then said: "But the late Empress is dead, the Regent can't live with a dead person. Also, Your Highness, haven't you noticed that the Regent has changed a lot? Not only does he listen to you, but he also takes advantage of you occasionally. "
“....”
Not getting a response, Shuang Xi looked at Shen Yueji who was quickly dressing up and couldn't help but speak again.
"Your Highness, are you planning to go to Diaoyang Palace?"
Shen Yueji said faintly: "Yes …"
"Let's go and see."
...
Late at night, the cold wind howled, accompanied by countless torches in the dark night.
The pungent smell of blood seeped into the heart and nose, accompanied by the sound of vomiting.
The three palace maids were like corpses, biting anyone they saw.
In the time that Feng Jiuqing arrived, more than a dozen eunuchs and palace maids in Diaoyang Palace had died in their mouths.
"Your Majesty!"
Li Huaisheng didn't expect things to develop to this point. When he saw Feng Jiuqing's dragon carriage coming, his fat face trembled as he rushed to the front of the Emperor's dragon carriage.
"Your Majesty … Diaoyang Palace … Diaoyang Palace is haunted … I don't know what happened to these missing palace maids, they bite anyone they see …"
The Emperor's cold eyes fell on him, and he raised his hand slightly.
Then, dozens of black-clothed secret guards rushed out from behind him, and in a short time, they subdued the three palace maids who kept biting people.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh —"
Between the flashes of swords.
The sound of a head rolling on the ground was especially clear in this dark night.
"Ugh —"
Someone in the crowd retched. Following this retching sound, even more sounds of vomiting could be heard in the cold and gloomy night.
The head of the palace maid who had been beheaded was separated from her neck, and a large number of black worms crawled out.
Apart from the black worms, there was nothing else in the palace maid's body. It was empty, pitch-black.
Countless black worms wriggled out of their bodies, and their originally inflated bodies, which were no different from ordinary people, quickly turned into a layer of dry skin at a speed visible to the naked eye.
A gust of cold wind blew.
Not even his bones were left. Even his skin and tattered clothes had been blown away by the wind.
The black worm crawled on the ground, but it couldn't find its destination. It slowly merged with the ground and turned into a puddle of black water. It sank into the ground and disappeared.
The cold night was quiet.
Everyone looked at the scene in front of them.
If they hadn't seen it with their own two eyes, and if the Marten Sun Palace didn't still have the mess from before, they would have almost suspected that the scene from before was an illusion.
A palace maid who had been missing for a long time and was still able to crawl without legs.
Even with its head chopped off, its body was still squirming on the ground.
Drinking human blood and eating human flesh. A black bug that had left its body and disappeared on the ground.
"When did these palace maids disappear?"
Feng Jiuqing's indifferent voice became calm again.
Li Huaisheng had long been scared out of his wits by the scene in front of him. His lips trembled as if he could not hear the Emperor's question.
Gao Dezhong fiercely kicked him, "The emperor is asking you a question, are you mute!?"
