Princess Consort Is No Pushover

Soon it was evening.

In the winter night, the sky is dark, and the cold wind howls, rolling up the dead branches and leaves on the ground, making a "swish, swish" sound.

Suddenly, there was a "bang", and the door was blown open by the wind, and Shanshan stood up suddenly in fright.

Seeing that Shanshan was so timid, the maid in the same room hurriedly asked, "Shanshan, what's wrong with you?"

"The wind, the wind blows the door open!" Shanshan said nervously.

The maid said: "Isn't it just the wind that blows the door open? Just close it, why are you so nervous?"

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door, and Shanshan's nerves tensed again, "Who is it?"

She had just finished speaking when she saw Mother Xue leading two maids in the palace.

As soon as Mother Xue saw Shanshan, she said in a deep voice, "Shanshan, have you cleaned up the cold palace you are in charge of?"

Shanshan hurriedly said: "Go back to Mommy, it's been cleaned!"

"It's been cleaned? How dare you lie to others, go and see for yourself, the courtyard of the cold palace is full of dead branches and rotten leaves, and it hasn't been cleaned at all, why don't you hurry up and clean it again?" Mother Xue said coldly.

Shanshan quickly shook her head: "Mother Xue, I really cleaned it up. Those dead branches may have been blown over by the wind, and it's dark now, and there is no one there, so I dare not go alone."

At this time, a maid next to Madam Xue said: "Mom, it's dark and cold outside this night, and the Leng Palace is often haunted by ghosts, why don't you let Shanshan go?"

As soon as Shanshan heard the word "haunted", her body trembled suddenly.

Mother Xue said: "If she didn't do anything wrong, what is she afraid of? Is she afraid that ghosts will come to her?"

"That's true, Shanshan, don't be afraid, go and sweep it!" said the maid.

"But I already cleaned it this afternoon!" Shanshan thought of the haunted palace, so she didn't dare to go there!

Mother Xue shouted coldly, "So what if you sweep it again? We looked at it just now, and the ground was still dirty after you swept it. You can clean it up as soon as possible. If you haven't cleaned it after two hours, I will press the Palace rules deal with you!"

As Mother Xue said, she took the people away!

Seeing Xuemao's cold back, the maid hurriedly picked up the broom and handed it to Shanshan, "Shanshan, Xuemao is our steward, you have to listen to her words. Go and clean it again, clean the cold palace Clean, or be careful to hit the board!"

Shanshan was afraid of being hit by a board, so she had no choice but to take the broom, picked up a small lantern, and walked slowly towards the cold palace.

-

There were very few people outside on a winter night, and there was no one on the road leading to the cold palace.

It was pitch black all around, and Shanshan walked tremblingly on the palace road alone, her heart pounding with fright.

Soon, she walked to the door of the cold palace, hung the lantern on the tree, then she looked around and quickly started sweeping the floor.

At this time, the wind was blowing more and more strongly, making the lantern sway.

Suddenly, there was a "pop", the wind blew the lantern to the ground, and the candles in the lantern went out instantly!

"Ah!" Seeing that the lantern was off, Shanshan hugged the broom tightly in fright. She raised her head and looked around, only to find that it was dark and quiet.

There was no light in the sky, the palace walls in the distance were dark, and the surroundings were so dark that you couldn't see your fingers.

Thinking of the ghosts in the cold palace, she dared not stay here, so scared she picked up the broom and ran outside.

Suddenly, the cold wind was mixed with the panting sound of evil ghosts, and the sound of heavy footsteps, and then, an unkempt white shadow floated past her.
