365 The Ghosts 1 (2/2)
He had so many women but no one would be able to make his heart beat faster --- he just enjoyed their body, no more and no less. In a sense, he was only loyal to his Ce Fei ah~! The Han Emperor was really sick in his mind.
Because she had never reciprocated his love, the Han Emperor had made a lot of mistakes and bad decisions that he had regretted. He really had pushed her away. The Han Emperor didn't realize that there were tears in his eyes.
The Empress Dowager was a Budha believer and no matter how strong her mentality was, she was already old --- thus, she was among the first batch of fainted people. Fortunately, she was helped by her personal Mo Mo or else, she might have fallen down from her seat. This was really a birthday to remember for her.
The wicked concubine's face went paler and she was trembling in fear. If... If the Ce Fei really had turned into a ghost, she knew that she would be her number one target. No... Maybe number two, after the main culprit --- the Emperor. After all, she was the mastermind behind her demise. She had done all that just to strengthen her position in the harem. She shook her head... No... No... She didn't believe in ghost!
She wouldn't let anyone ruin her plan, her life, and her revenge --- even if her enemy was a ghost!
”Your... Your Majesty... I don't believe that she's really a ghost!” The wicked concubine quickly said. When the ghost heard what she said, the ghost turned her attention to her. The ghost smirked while showing her bloody teeth.
”You... don't believe me...? Good! I will bring you along to the afterlife, so you can enjoy hell!” The ghost said slowly with a maniacal laugh. The music turned louder and scarier when the ghost started to talk. The ghost walked again within the smoke, thus, no one could see the ghost's feet.
Yao Ling who played the qujin saw her from behind. She couldn't believe how clever the effect that they made, however, it involved a lot of people to make it this believable. The stage was quite high and some people were hiding under the stage while letting out smoke slowly so that the fog would look more real.
The wicked concubine fell down from her seat and Xiao Fang knew that she shouldn't push her too hard. She needed to let the Han Emperor admit what had really happened to her mother with his mouth before she dragged this wicked concubine down along with the Emperor!
The Empress also felt scared at first but she could see how agitated the wicked concubine was. The woman was always so calm and it was hard to make her show any other expression --- except smug and taunting. Did she see the fear in her expression?
The Empress gripped her handkerchief tighter, trying to stop her tremble by hurting herself so that the pain could defeat her fear. She didn't care whether she would be hurt in the process, but she needed to regain her sanity and use this chance.
She squinted her eyes and knew that something wasn't right. Did she do something to the Ce Fei that made her look so scared? 'Interesting!' The Empress thought inwardly. She smirked without realizing it. She had lost her mind a long time ago because of this woman and she didn't even care about anything because this woman had ruined her family.
An Empress without a powerful background... she became nothing!
If the ghost was that woman's enemy, then she could even become friends with a ghost! That was how much she hated the wicked concubine!
The Empress quickly said, ”No... No... That is really a ghost! Your Majesty... she... she has no feet!”
