Chapter 435 The evildoer is here
Emperor Hongde smiled and continued, "Lord Leng, the marriage between my son Prince Yu and your daughter has been decided. I will discuss with the Queen and prepare the betrothal gifts as soon as possible and send them to the Marquis of Qinxing's Mansion as soon as possible.
As for the betrothal gifts... let Leng Aiqing, as a father, keep them for my future daughter-in-law!"
To Leng Xian, what Emperor Hong De said was equivalent to saying: Lord Leng, you can use the betrothal gift as you wish!"
Leng Xian feels happy!
So beautiful that it’s bubbling!
Leng Xian kept bowing and expressing his gratitude to Emperor Hong De.
He seemed to have seen his future glory and wealth;
See his bright future!
Prince Yu's father-in-law Taishan;
The emperor’s children and relatives;
Lots of gold, silver and treasures...
So what if Fu Baozhen’s dowry was stolen?
So what if all the money in the mansion was stolen?
You will still enjoy wealth and honor, right?
This is my fate!
My life is so good!
Leng Xian knelt down again in fear and trepidation to express his gratitude before he stood up and returned to the class of civil officials.
Several young eunuchs holding trays stepped aside along with Leng Xian and stood silently behind him.
Leng Xian felt as if a naughty little hand was gently scratching his heart, making him feel itchy all the time...
Leng Xian secretly guessed...what were on those trays?
Leng Xian kept guessing and thinking like this, and finally waited until the court was dismissed.
Leng Xian walked out of the palace.
Several young eunuchs followed him with trays in their hands and walked out of the palace with him.
When they arrived at the carriage that Leng Xian was riding in, several young eunuchs placed the trays in their hands on Leng Xian's carriage one by one, then bowed to him and turned back to the palace.
Leng Xian couldn't wait any longer.
He quickly climbed onto the carriage, lowered the curtain, and reached out to lift up the pieces of red silk...
Gold...Silver...Jewelry...
"Hahaha...hahaha..."
This is great!
This is great!
The hard days of drinking thin porridge and eating pickles are finally over!
Leng Xian was happy and proud!
I said it myself, there is no way the Emperor could possibly watch his children and in-laws living in such poverty and hardship!
The emperor would also feel embarrassed and ashamed, wouldn’t he?
Leng Xian laughed happily...
Laughing...laughing...laughing...
Suddenly, the carriage stopped abruptly and Leng Xian almost hit the door of the carriage.
Leng Xian felt unhappy and asked in a cold voice, "What's going on?"
No one answered.
Leng Xian reached out and lifted the car curtain in anger...
He saw his father-in-law, Duke Anguo Fu Peng, standing in front of the carriage with his hands behind his back and an angry look on his face.
Leng Xian felt a chill in his heart!
Moreover, as the curtain of the car opened, Leng Xian clearly felt a damp and cold air coming towards him...
chilly!
It's so cold!
It was so cold that Leng Xian shivered immediately.
Leng Xian, who was half asleep and half awake, shrank his neck and wiped his face with his hand...
My face is covered with cold water...
Leng Xian suddenly woke up, opened his hazy eyes, and looked at the sky outside the window...
It's still dark!
Leng Xian touched his face again...
My face is really wet.
I touched it again, and the quilt and pillow were also wet...
Where does water come from?
Leng Xian was just feeling puzzled when suddenly, a dim light appeared in the center of the room...
Leng Xian turned around and saw a beautiful figure standing there in the light.
That figure made him feel extremely familiar.
Leng Xian was startled, and he closed his eyes tightly, then looked again...
Fu... Bao... Zhen...
"what!"
Leng Xian screamed.
However, Leng Xian only uttered this scream.
Leng Xian felt that when he opened his mouth to scream, a small, round object flew straight into his wide-open mouth;
The thing melted in my mouth and I couldn't spit it out in time.
Before Leng Xian understood what was happening, he discovered...
He couldn't speak...
He couldn't make any sound...
Leng Xian was so panicked that he clutched his throat with both hands.
He tried hard to speak...
But it was no use.
Leng Xian was forced to come to a realization—he had become mute!
How come he became mute?
Leng Xian looked up in horror, then looked at the slender figure in the hazy space opposite him...
That's Fu Baozhen!
Leng Xian blinked hard, raised his hand to rub his eyes, and then looked...
That’s right, that was his legitimate wife Fu Baozhen!
But...but...Fu Baozhen has been dead for many years!
How could he?
Thinking of this, Leng Xian’s confused mind finally became completely clear!
Leng Xian's eyes suddenly widened...
Hell!
It's a ghost!
Leng Xian was screaming madly in his heart...
But no sound came out of his mouth.
Fu Baozhen opposite him said nothing, just stood there, looking at him quietly and coldly.
The less Fu Baozhen spoke, the more frightened Leng Xian became;
The more I couldn't make a sound, the more panicked I became!
Leng Xian exerted his strength several times and finally confirmed that he really couldn't speak.
As the saying goes: If you don’t do anything wrong, you don’t have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door!
It's a shame to be so cold!
He cheated on his wife, robbed her of her wealth, allowed his concubine and mother to poison his wife, and even treated her only bloodline harshly...
It's a shame to be so cold!
He is afraid of ghosts knocking on the door!
Now the ghost was standing in front of him...
Is Fu Baozhen here to seek revenge?
Leng Xian was extremely frightened at this moment, but he had become mute and could not utter any words to beg for mercy. He could only roll off the bed, kneel on the ground, and kowtowed several times to Fu Baozhen's ghost.
Then, he clenched his hands into fists and bowed repeatedly, with an urgent expression on his face, as if he was begging for help.
Leng Rongyue used her wide sleeves to cover the night-shining pearl in her hand, allowing the light of the night-shining pearl to shine only on her face, which was covered with several layers of white powder.
The surrounding darkness and this tiny patch of faint light created an extremely strange atmosphere...
Leng Xian only felt the chilling wind around him, and felt a chill down his spine!
