369 The Ghosts 5

"No... Really... I love you... but please release her first!" The Han Emperor's eyes were darting around between his beloved concubine and also his Ce Fei's ghost. The even more laughable thing he was... he still dared to beg for the wicked concubine's life. He looked heartbroken when he saw her beloved concubine being strangled heartlessly. However, there was also a hint of desperate love in his eyes when he looked at his Ce Fei.

No matter what she was still his concubine. If he couldn't protect her, how would the people see him? It was actually only his ego talking. The man was selfish and he actually only loved himself --- it was also the reason for his downfall.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting.

In the end, what he did only made people feel more disgusted at him.

"Love?" Xiao Fang asked sarcastically. "What a beautiful love that you have! It's so beautiful that it makes me want to puke!" Xiao Fang didn't bother to cover up her disgust once more. When she saw that the choke had become harder, Xiao Fang followed along by pretending to clutch her gist harder.

If she could, she really wanted to strangle that woman for real --- using her own hands. Judging from the Han Emperor's current performance, it seemed like he was really biased towards the wicked concubine, no wonder her mother's fate ended up so bad under both of their ruthless hands.

The onlookers could only shake their heads at this muddleheaded Emperor. How could they let such a person govern a kingdom? Could such a man make a good judgment? He couldn't even manage his own backyard. This kind of Emperor was easy to become a puppet ah~!

No wonder there was a list that contained the name that he wanted to remove. If he wasn't muddleheaded, how could he think of something as outrageous as that? Wanting to become a sole Monarch? Was he that crazy?! The foundation of this kingdom had been planned by the founding Emperor carefully, but he wanted to abolish the system and become a sole ruler.

How could people accept the Emperor's selfishness? If he planned to do something crazy, no one would be able to stop him ah~! No matter they were the officials who were loyal to him or not, no one agreed to this type of decision.

They started to believe that it might not just be a rumor ah~! Look at how the Han Emperor behaved himself! He loudly said that he loved his Ce Fei and that was the image that made the people admire him all this time because they saw how the Emperor searched for the woman like a lunatic back then. But in the end... it looked like that it was only an act! It was only his pride talking.

The officials' heart towards the Han Emperor became even colder. What made the Emperor change so much? He used to be an upright and full of aspiration man... Otherwise, how could so many people be loyal to him if he was this useless before?

They wondered how could they not see his change back then? They only realized it at this moment.

Their eyes turned to the wicked concubine and wonder to themselves. Was it because of her? If yes, it was better if that woman was strangled to death by the ghost! They could even cheer the ghost up if they could. There was a surging fire inside their hearts.

"Help --- Help me...!" The wicked concubine felt like she almost died and she could only see white blank space in front of her. This was the first time she felt afraid after she became the Han Emperor's concubine --- she was usually the one who tortured people ah~!

Yao Ying was worried about what happened because he knew the reason why the wicked concubine was being choked by the unknown thing. He stood in the darkness, guarding his wife by her side. Thus, he could see her movements clearly. She had stopped playing the qujin a long time ago. From where he stood, he could see the moon birthmark at the back of her neck suddenly started to shine brighter and brighter. Fortunately... he saw it in time, so he was able to cover it up by arranging her hair.

However, it seemed like Yao Ling didn't even realize that he had touched her. When he looked at her, it seemed like she was in a trance. Her usually pure and shining eyes suddenly changed color --- into red ones, honestly, Yao Ying also found it scary. If he didn't know she was his wife, he would certainly think that she was a ghost that was coming for an act of vengeance.

'What happened to her?' Yao Ying asked to himself. Yao Ling's sudden change made him feel baffled as well. He knew that she had learned something from the scrolls, but he didn't really pay attention. Yao Ying already told her to pay attention to what she had learned, don't learn if it was dangerous ah~!

Was it the result of her diligent learning?

Yao Ying knew that Yao Ling would not have done this out of nowhere --- she must have been triggered by something. The most possible answer was because of Jiu Lan's matter. He knew that it was also because of the trash Emperor's words because he also wanted to punch that Emperor when he heard his disgusting words and looked at his behavior.

Yao Ying glanced at Yao Ling's hand and he could see that her right hand was making a gesture of choking someone. He was certain that this was because of her newfound power, however, he also could feel that there was a fluctuation once again after she used her power for quite some times. Her power wasn't stable but it was better than before.

He was contemplating whether he should stop her or not. If he stopped her and she regretted failing to kill her, he knew that Yao Ling would blame him. However, he was afraid that her power would be exposed. Fortunately, people still thought that this was Xiao Fang's doing ah~!

Otherwise, it would be bad!

Hopefully, all of them would still believe that those two were really ghosts.

Yao Ying decided to hold Yao Ling's hand, trying to give her comfort so she could gain back her sanity. He didn't dare to make a big and bold move, otherwise, people would be able to see him ah~!

"Ling-er, calm yourself down!"

Yao Ying didn't know whether his whisper would work or not, but he remembered that there was a connection between them, maybe... just maybe... he could affect her somehow.

Yao Ying guessed was right --- he had the power to affect Yao Ling.

Yao Ling started to calm down and her clutch started to loosen a little bit. It also affected her hold towards the wicked concubine's neck.

The wicked concubine could feel the loosened grip and she was finally able to breathe somehow and could finally sigh in relief. She looked at the Ce Fei with hatred and because of what had just happened, she lost her mind because of her anger. She was usually a calm woman but today... she was being rattled and her mood became so bad! She didn't even remember where she was.

In a banquet, with a lot of onlookers...

The wicked concubine pointed at the Ce Fei's ghost full of hatred like a shrew. Her previous gentle and delicate self was gone because she was blinded by her own hatred towards the Ce Fei's ghost! Her previous fear was gone in a heartbeat because she didn't think that the ghost would let her go anyway. Thus, she decided to go all out!

If the ghost wanted to fight, then she would fight. She had forgotten how she was being strangled. She became uncontrollable.

Why not let the ghost see her hatred? If she took her and became a ghost as well, she would fight her as a ghost as well. What was there to be afraid of?
