Chapter 86
86 Ghosted Room
Meanwhile in the Dragon Palace,
In the Jade Pavilion of the Queen’s residence, which was visited by a very important guest that afternoon. Officials FuYa from the Logistics department who had been kneeling before the Queen who was sitting enjoying her tea, ChaiMa was already standing behind her. The Logistics Officer FuYa had been kneeling since this afternoon and now it’s getting late, even though the Queen said she would throw him out but the fat old man with some gray hair on his head still didn’t move from his place.
The Queen is tired of persuading him, although official Fu is one of the most important officials in the palace, he plays a very important role in reporting food stocks to clothe for residents and state officials at every opportunity. Officials Fu has worked for decades very well without any problems.
“Officials Fu, the Queen has said that this matter has been handled by His Majesty the Crown Prince, and all the evidence has been found, for this time, even Her Majesty the Queen also cannot do anything, no matter what injuring a fellow concubine is a crime, and Her Majesty the Queen or even the Emperor can’t help her, despite the rules, it all depends on the Crown Prince’s generosity,” said ChaiMa.
But the old man FuYa shook his head.
“But Lan’er is a good girl, she is a bit stubborn, but in her life, she has never dared to do anything that stupid, if not persuaded by others she could not dare, I dare to guarantee if it is not Lan’er who did it, Your Majesty please investigate again, my daughter is really innocent”
klek.
The Queen put her teacup on the saucer, glanced at the officials FuYa who had made her time stop since they had to serve him, where it’s supposed to be the time when she was about to continue her facial treatment, the man really annoyed her.
“Then what does Officials Fu think this old madam can do? Concubine Fu has been handed over to the court with all available evidence and witnesses, even the Gods are now having a hard time helping her, official Fu better go home and prepare a funeral for your daughter, who’d told her to so dare to disturb the Crown Prince’s favorite concubine? I don’t know what would happen if Yen ‘er was dead, the Crown Prince could have beheaded one of your family, you are still lucky old man because now Concubine Hua is okay,” said the Queen.
.....
Official Fu raised his face.
“Concubine Hua?”
ChaiMa nodded.
“Yeah, your daughter injured concubine Hua hence she was unconscious for three days, I think right now she the only one who can persuade the Crown Prince”
Official Fu widened his eyes, then he must find a way, he must be able to save his daughter no matter what.
“Th-then I will try to persuade her by myself Your Majesty, please excuse me”
The Queen and ChaiMa still stuttered when they saw the old man slowly get up and back away towards the door, saluted for a while, and disappear in an instant.
“Eh old man..”
Both looked at each other.
“What happened to the old man? Is it because he’s been kneeling too long and his brain might have problems?” The Queen said, ChaiMa shrugged her shoulders.
“Servant also don’t know Your Majesty.”
The Queen seemed don’t want to think more about it, she asked ChaiMa’s hand to help her stand up, for a moment straightened her sore waist from sitting for so long.
“That old man, come on ChaiMa help me wear my facial mask, according to Yen’er I have to apply it at least once every three days to reduce fine wrinkles, it’s already the third day, I can’t miss it, oh the facial mask is really comfortable, that child it’s indeed very clever.”
ChaiMa nodded, several young maids, followed her towards the room.
“Yes Your Majesty”
“My legs are also a bit sore ChaiMa, later please give me a massage, oh I’m so old”
ChaiMa nodded back while helping the Queen to go to her room, between Queen and ChaiMa of course ChaiMa was much older than her, but Queen always felt she was older.
“Yes Your Highness”
....
Click click.
The sound of a lock being opened from outside.
In a dark room, where long black curtains without a pattern are waved by the wind which flows from between the walls. Several small to medium-sized spiders can be seen sliding down from their nests on roof pegs to crawl onto the cold floor, if lucky they can find prey ranging from small mosquitoes to ants which are rarely to be found as if no other life there, the room is sealed and so cold, that even the ants didn’t want to enter the house.
Even because the large room was too sealed, the smell of the damp room couldn’t escape and made the air around it not fresh, anyone could be crazy for being there for too long.
Best
Someone looked like FuLan, because at that time she was not dressed up as she used to be, wearing ordinary clothes that were far from luxurious, messy hair without styled up, a dull face, she sat curled up in the corner of the bed, frightened by all the noises that appeared around her, under her eyes blackened because she couldn’t sleep for the time she was there, of course, how could she? The room resembled a haunted house even though there was nothing there but her.
She pulled her leg quickly when she saw a streak of light emerging from a door that had not been open for a while if it was not for the waiter who had come to deliver the food.
“No, don’t come any closer, I don’t want to eat, I’d rather die than stay here!”
FuLan’s screaming voice tried to cover herself with his bed curtain, they placed the food as usual on the table, and didn’t take long for a hand to appear, to part the curtain to see FuLan’s face.
“Go! Get out of here, I don’t want to eat, let me die!”
But the person who was none other than BaiYing didn’t give up, he held onto FuLan’s two hands and tried to calm her down.
“Sis, Lan’er Sister, this is Yen’er”
FuLan was quiet for a while, her eyes widened when she saw who was in front of her holding her two hands, she couldn’t control herself to cry and screamed loudly.
“Whoa, Yen’er! Huksss Yen’er” without thinking twice FuLan pulled BaiYing and hugged him tightly, she burst into tears, her body trembled with thin arms wrapped around BaiYing’s neck, the young man tried to hold his tears, he stroked FuLan’s back which was much thinner and he could feel her shoulder blade clearly.
“Sister Lan, forgive Ying’er for being so late, Ying’er is here sis”
FuLan’s cry even made Yan and Bi who also accompanied BaiYing into the pavilion’s room try to hold back their tears but couldn’t, both of them were crying and could not bear to see the beautiful concubine Fu who in just a few days turned like a ghost.
“Huaaaa Yen’er, get me out of here, I’m scared, huaaaaa”
BaiYing kept stroking Lan’er’s back, a body that was actually shaking with fear, she’s not made it up.
“Ying’er will try, Sis, please calm down first.”
