Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 59 - The Plan to Catch the Ghost



Chapter 59 The Plan to Catch the Ghost

There was nothing outside the door. He didn’t see anyone or any shadows.

The worker, who was swarthy, immediately turned deathly pale. He kept his eyes fixed on the deep and quiet alley as if he was attacked by the Petrification Curse in an instant.

“Who is knocking at the door?”

Companions standing behind him didn’t know what had happened. They thought it was the butler of Prince Yu’s Mansion.

“No… no one is knocking at the door… Ghost… Ghost…”

The man who opened the door shouted and disappeared into the alley in an instant. He was as fast as the good horse.

“Master, hahaha, he’s so fast.”

Baishao was hiding in the darkness. Looking at the man’s figure, she was joyful and laughed silently.

Each of them wore a big black cloak, leaving only their eyes exposed. So they hid in the darkness and no one could notice them.

“Yes. He’s quite fast. Well, please continue to frighten them. But be careful and avoid causing accidents.”

Lin Mengya brought a dozen of people with her. All of them were wearing the large black cloak and Lin Mengya also muffled herself up in the cloak.

Just now she went to the courtyard and checked those who had fainted.

Fortunately, they fainted because they smelled the pure and refined knockout drugs. They would probably wake up after sleeping for a night.

This provided further evidence that the “ghost” in the teahouse just didn’t want others to discover the secret of the gold.

Several skilled guards climbed the wall and carried the bright red lantern with a stick that was covered by a black cloth. Then they swung the lantern in the courtyard to frighten the workers.

At this time, the left several sober workers also fled immediately.

They were running and talking nonsense. They asked the ghost to spare their lives and promised that they would never enter this place anymore.

Lin Mengya couldn’t help but shook her head. These men had been poisoned by the superstition.

A dozen of them quietly entered the small courtyard of the teahouse at night.

The courtyard was still sepulchral and there were many fainted workers lying on the ground, which made it look like a mass grave.

Lin Mengya was hiding behind others and looking at the small building.

Oh! Qinghu was really in this place!

Lin Mengya rubbed her eyebrows. The poison on Qinghu was deadly. They were far away now, but the poison radar in her head kept delivering warnings.

Qinghu was an enemy agent and tried to elicit secrets from her. Moreover, he was involved in everything.

Lin Mengya immediately decided she must use something more powerful than croton to torture him the next time!

Everything went according to plan. Lin Mengya asked her men to walk around the small teahouse with the red lanterns in their hands.

Suddenly, there were strange red lanterns flying around the dark teahouse.

Fortunately, there were no living people in this yard. Otherwise, some of them might be scared to death.

After a while, someone suddenly appeared in the small building. He was holding a sharp dagger, which was flashing coldly in the moonlight, and rushing to the red lantern.

But the dagger passed through the lantern in the next second. The flame just flashed, but the lantern seemed to remain intact.

Lin Mengya sneered silently. These lanterns were made of resilient silk thread.

Ordinary sharp weapons could only cut a few lines of it.

Therefore, he had the illusion that this dagger passed through the lantern.

This time, the fake ‘ghost’ in the small building was going to be confused.

The lanterns continued to fly. There were scary shadows everywhere in the building and she could even feel the evil wind. The fake ghost in the building might also be puzzled.

After a while, a black figure looked out of the building furtively.

Lin Mengya immediately motioned them to get started. The fish had swallowed the bait and it was time to close the net!

Several bright red ghosts suddenly appeared beside the dark figure. Their hair was disheveled and the black figure couldn’t see their faces clearly.

The black figure was scared and suddenly gave a loud cry. Then he jumped and rushed back to the small building.

Lin Mengya almost laughed. But the bright red female ghosts did not follow the black figure and enter the building. Instead, they hid in the darkness once again.

Suddenly, there was nothing in the courtyard except for the bright red lanterns.

“Master, what if they escape?”

Baishao was bold and she looked at the building with great interest.

“We can pull down this teahouse if they run away. We can gain great benefits.”

But she didn’t think that those people would really abandon the building and escape.

The dark clouds dispersed and the moon shone. Immediately, they could clearly see everything in the courtyard.

The people in the small building plucked up their courage and came out in a group to see what had happened.

Lin Mengya noticed that five people had come out. It seemed that they were very terrified.

When they walked together to the middle of the courtyard, Lin Mengya waved her hands and all the guards hidden in the darkness rushed out at the same time.

Lin Mengya heard the rattling noises and the five men were tied up by the guards.

But Lin Mengya suddenly felt uneasy. No! Qinghu was not among the five men!

She was about to come forward and check when someone put a strong arm around her slender waist.

She suddenly smelled the cold fragrance. Lin Mengya realized that she made a mistake and sure enough, she heard the unique lazy voice of Qinghu.

“Hey! I was wondering who was playing tricks on me. It’s you! Since you’ve seen through my designs, you’d better come with me!”

Qinghu held Lin Mengya and was about to fly away. But Lin Mengya suddenly stretched out her hand to take off the black cloak on her head.

Qinghu suddenly saw a ghastly pale face and her bright red clothes. The visual impact was strong and Qinghu was scared.

“What the fuck is this?”

Qinghu unconsciously let her go. But after looking carefully at her features, he realized that this was Lin Mengya.

“You…”

But Lin Mengya waved her hands and sprinkled a small packet of powder before Qinghu realized what had happened.

Qinghu wanted to hold his breath but he suddenly felt his body growing numb and he couldn’t move his hands or feet.

He couldn’t even blink, let alone run away.

Lin Mengya and those men in black also inhaled the powder, but they were unaffected by it.

Lin Mengya proudly raised her chain and Qinghu gnashed his teeth in anger.

She waved her hands and gave orders triumphantly.

“Bring all of them away!”

The valiant action to catch the ghosts came to an end and finally, Lin Mengya won an outright victory.

A dozen guards in black cloaks carried the six fake ghosts and sneaked back to Prince Yu’s Mansion.

It was midnight but the servants received orders and opened the back door of the mansion secretly.

Lin Mengya asked the servants to put the six fake ghosts in the dungeon. Then she came back to the Qinglan Courtyard with Baishao.

“Sister Princess, what have you…”

Lin Zhongyu had been waiting at the door and he immediately saw Lin Mengya who was wearing a black cloak when they entered the courtyard.

“Hush, don’t ask anything. You and Baizhi need to guard the door and don’t let anyone come in. Baishao and Baiji, let’s first take off this dress.”

They entered the house and Baiji had already prepared two barrels of hot water.

Lin Mengya and Baishao took off their clothes and washed their faces. Then they soaked themselves in the tub and Baiji could only see their faces.

“Sister Baiji, master and I brought the guards and scared the hell out of those fake ghosts! It’s funny!”

Baishao could hardly wait to tell her experience at the teahouse to Baishao.

Lin Mengya was leaning against the wooden barrel and her fair face turned red because of the hot water.

Baiji was quiet and calm but she was still attracted to the story of Baishao.

But Lin Mengya was not so relaxed.

The Empress was still staring at her with hostility. She just let her go this time to protect the Crown Prince.

But she had poisoned the Crown Prince and the Empress might want to kill her now.

It seemed that Qinghu was not just the leader of the killers of the Peach Blossom Dock.

He had already colluded with the enemy agents in the mansion. He may also have ulterior motives in signing the agreement with her.

The trouble came one after another.

After the bath, Baishao walked out of the tub with a crashing sound. She put on simple clothes and stood behind Lin Mengya to serve her with Baiji.

“Master, I have a question. Why are those fake ghosts afraid of us?”

Baishao’s wet hair hung down her back and she scrubbed her master’s back and asked her with curiosity.

Lin Mengya smiled and gently brushed her delicate skin with the loofah.

“Those who pretend to be ghosts may also be afraid of the real ghosts. The fake ghosts are more afraid of the real ghosts than the normal people are. Besides, all of them were killers and must have killed many innocent people. We’re just a trigger and what really scares them is the fear in their hearts.”

“Oh, I see. As the saying goes, ‘A quiet conscience sleeps in thunder.’ They are afraid of us because they feel guilty.”

Baishao suddenly understood something. She was superstitious and believed stories about spirits before.

However, tonight, she suddenly realized that sometimes people were more horrible than ghosts.

“Yes, you’re right. Well, it’s midnight and you must be tired. You can leave and have a good rest now.”

“Master, I want to make the bed for you before leaving.”

Lin Mengya shook her head and patted their hands.

These two girls were loyal to her despite that they had just come to Prince Yu’s Mansion several days ago.

Now they were exhausted and their eyes turned red. But they still want to stay here to serve her.

“Well, master, please doesn’t wash for too long and don’t catch cold. We’re leaving.”

Baishao and Baiji left the main house and closed the door.

There was only Lin Mengya in this big main house. She leaned against the tub and her face finally became weary.

She didn’t expect that she would come to life in the bridal sedan chair and meet with so many difficulties.

But she had to admit that she didn’t want a quiet life and this intense and exciting life was her favorite.

It seemed that she was born to adapt to this life.

But she also clearly knew that it was very dangerous to deal with the members of the imperial house.
