The queen was so frightened that she asked, "little, how did you do all this?"

Sitting in front of the empress, Jin Xiaoxiao could not help but slightly raise the corner of her mouth and pulled up a playful smile: "the reason is very simple. Phosphate powder can not only be used as fertilizer, but also as raw material for fireworks."

"If you light it with cotton stained with phosphor powder, you will see the ghost fire. If you pull it up and down through the fish thread, it will look more real, as if the fire has come to life."

Empress Wen Yan not only breathed a sigh of relief, she patted her chest, some weak said: "actually there is such a way, so to say, all this is intentional?"

Jin Xiaoxiao nodded in affirmation: "yes, the reason why I show you all this is to let you know that there are no ghosts in the world. It's just to scare yourself."

The queen closed her eyes thoughtfully, looked at Jin Xiaoxiao very seriously, and asked, "Xiaoxiao, do you think there will be nothing after death?"

"Then people often go to sacrifice. Can those who have died feel it?"

Jin Xiaoxiao was stunned. She never thought that the queen would ask such a question.

"Empress, your question is a little more profound. I just said that there are no ghosts in the world, brother Zeng. It's my personal opinion. Didn't I say it before? If you believe it, there will be none."

"As for whether people still exist after death, this question is too profound. I have no such experience, so I really can't answer you."

Queen smell speech some embarrassed smile, scene once embarrassed.

"By the way, our palace has not only seen these things recently, but also seen many fantasies. Last night, we saw Princess Li appear in the bedroom of our palace."

"I can even see the folds of her clothes clearly. It's very clear. Whether it's fantasy or not is sometimes unclear to my palace."

Jin Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly. After pondering for a moment, he said, "in that case, I think the empress must have had an illusion."

"You have just asked me whether people still exist after death. I can't answer your question, but I can tell you that Princess Li is dead."

"It's good to live as a ghost, but it won't be seen by us, and it has nothing to do with you, and she won't come to you."

"And if what you see is the ghost of Princess Li, she won't disappear in front of you."

Empress Dai Mei frowned slightly and thought for a while. She thought that what Jin Xiaoxiao said was very reasonable: "that's true. If you really want to take the life of our palace, you won't wait until now."

Jin Xiaoxiao asked the maid beside the queen, "do you know what the queen used to eat on this day?"

The maid closed her eyes and said, "there are many kinds of food that are sent to the empress's bedroom every day. If you want to count them all, it's hard to answer."

Jin Xiaoxiao suspected that someone put hallucinogenic drugs into the Queen's food, otherwise there would never be such a real illusion.

When people are jealous and afraid, they are easy to have some illusions, but they can't reach such a real level.

"So where does all this food come from? The imperial dining room? Or

Empress Wen Yan said in person: "the meals used in this palace are all from the kitchens in the bedroom of this palace. Although the things in the imperial dining room are exquisite, since so many things happened, we seldom use the food in the imperial dining room."

"Why do you suddenly ask this, little boy?"

Jin Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and said cautiously: "I doubt that the queen is just taking the hallucinogenic drug to see her."

"But if all the food comes from your little kitchen, there won't be any problem."

At this time, a maid in waiting with wormwood came to the censer in the Queen's bedroom to light it. Wormwood can not only refresh people, but also repel mosquitoes in hot summer.

Every concubine in the palace has this kind of thing. In recent days, the empress has been frightened frequently, so she naturally wants to smoke AI to refresh her.

Not only that, the benefits of smoked wormwood are far more than these, but Jin Xiaoxiao can smell a different taste from this wormwood.

Her eyebrows frowned slightly, and her eyes were full of doubts: "queen, don't you realize what's wrong with the smell of wormwood?"

The queen looked puzzled and shook her head: "what's the matter? This wormwood palace has been smoked every night since it became Queen. It's good for your health. "

"Is there anything wrong with this wormwood?"

Jin Xiaoxiao's eyes narrowed slightly: "it's not that there's something wrong with wormwood itself, it's just that the wormwood in your palace seems to taste a little wrong."

"Once I lived in Princess Chang's house for some time, and I tried to see my mother Xun AI, but it was not like this."

So she got up slowly, came to the censer, took the wormwood in the maid's hand and looked at it. She was surprised.

"Quick, put out the wormwood in the censer." Jin Xiaoxiao covered his nose and told the maid of honor.

At the beginning, the maid of honor did not dare to do it easily. Finally, she got the Queen's nod, which put out the wormwood.

Naturally, the queen could see that Jin Xiaoxiao had picked some clues and asked, "Xiaoxiao, is there anything wrong with this wormwood?"

Jin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath. Fortunately, the moxa grass was not lit for a long time, otherwise even she would fall into the illusion.

"Empress, it's really good to smoke wormwood. I also encourage you to do so, but this wormwood is not the kind used in daily life, but a lot of things called wormwood."

"Although wormwood looks the same as wormwood and smells the same, it has a bitter taste, which is hard to find if it is not carefully identified."

"The only difference between the two is that the former is poisonous, while the latter is nontoxic. After aromatherapy, absinthe will make people hallucinate, and it is very real."

"That's why you have seen illusions for a long time in recent days. I think these maids have naturally seen them?"

All the maids nodded when they heard the words. Although they saw it, no one would care about it. It would naturally be considered that they had seen a ghost. Who would care about whether there was a problem with wormwood in the Queen's palace.

The empress smelled that Daimei was frowning. She looked at the maid who had just come in with wormwood and asked, "where did you get this wormwood?"
