Chapter 452: The Imperial Concubine Is Pure and Elegant (202)

In fact, the group had almost finished their meal, and soon they paid the bill and left the restaurant.

Before leaving the restaurant, Cui Li lit a palm-sized green incense stick and inserted it into the calamus pot. It was covered by the broad leaves, so if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't find the incense. It was non-toxic and had a light smell, but it would only leave a vague impression on people of strangers they had met within half an hour.

After the two parties agreed on a meeting place, Xuan Wen took another route, preparing to divert those who were looking for his whereabouts.

In the carriage, Han Zhao sighed, "That young master Feng wasn't possessed by an evil spirit, but someone used his body to do something evil. This was a man-made disaster, not the work of a ghost. Do people really become ghosts after death?"

Cui Li thought about the setting of this world, where Ji Wei turned into a ghost after death. Gradually, she realized how stupid she was in her previous life, and then she woke up. After starting over again, she no longer trusted her elder sister Ji Mingyue.

Seeing Han Zhao's interest in ghosts, she shook her head and said, "Zhao'er, humans and ghosts are different. Even if a person really turns into a ghost after death, you won't be able to see ghosts. And if a ghost doesn't have a particularly deep obsession, it won't stay in the world of the living for too long. It will be reincarnated. After reincarnation, how can it remember its past?"

Han Zhao listened eagerly to Cui Li's discussion of ghosts and asked, "So ghosts with obsessions can't reincarnate? Will anyone help them fulfill their wishes?"

"Ordinary people, after they die, should return to the underworld according to common sense. If their obsessions are too deep, or they stay in the world of the living for too long, they may slowly dissipate between heaven and earth. As for fulfilling the wishes of ghosts, they have to meet their destined person to do so."

Han Zhao couldn't quite understand what the lady said, but he didn't interrupt her.

"Those like Master who practice Taoism rarely see ghosts with their naked eyes. To cast spells that allow them to see and communicate with ghosts requires a price. Ordinary people can't even see ghosts unless they have opened their third eye. Similarly, ghosts rarely harm us, unless they are someone with a weak destiny or too much Yin energy. Of course, there are some special cases, and those who are favored are always different, but ordinary people won't encounter them, at least that's the way it is in this world."

Han Zhao didn't understand what "at least that's how it is in this world" meant, nor did she understand who was "favored." She simply felt that the knowledge displayed by the Madam was far beyond the understanding of an ordinary concubine, and she thought she must have been taught by the Grand Master.

Cui Li stopped there and didn't say anything more.

Han Tong was driving the carriage outside and could probably hear the conversation between the two, but he was not too curious and did not try to find out the lady's secret.

He carefully planned the route, arranged people to go ahead to inquire, and quietly escorted Cui Li to the new city, where the lord's men were there and could better protect his wife.

It is a county town surrounded by mountains on one side, facing the river on the other, and plains on both sides. Although the county town is not large in area, it has developed transportation, frequent trade, outstanding people, and simple customs.

Cui Li gave birth to her child in the suburbs of the county town where the temperature was suitable and the flowers were in full bloom.

"Great joy! My wife gave birth! It's a little boy!"

The midwife smiled and congratulated, carrying the child out of the inner room and into the hall.

Han Tong was so happy that he jumped onto the beam and then jumped down quickly.

Xuan Wen, who had just arrived, patted his sleeves, kindly took the child from the midwife's hands, and put a jade pendant around the child's neck.

The newborn baby's face was still slightly red, but his eyes were wide open, he didn't cry, and he smiled with his cute little tongue showing.

Xuan Wen understood that the child could not see his appearance at the moment, but he was still very happy.

The midwife didn't know Cui Li and Xuan Wen's true identities, but she knew Xuan Wen was Madam's master. "Master Wen, our young master is really worried about Madam. Madam has only been in there for less than two hours, and the young master is already out."

"How is Li'er?"

"Madam, nothing is wrong. She is just tired. She drank a bowl of ginseng soup and fell asleep."

Xuan Wen looked at the baby with a smile, "Master, hold it, Master, hold it! Our little Tuantuan is so good! Mommy is asleep, and when she wakes up, little Tuantuan will be able to see Mommy!"

The little cutie waved his soft arms, as if responding to Xuan Wen.

"Good boy! Master likes you, Tuantuan! From now on, you should take Master's last name!"

Xuan Wen laughed out loud, completely forgetting who the child's biological father was.

Of course, after waking up, Cui Li said that Xiaotuantuan would naturally have her surname.
