5. Mad And Vengeful Ghost
The Mad Consort's Second Life
Right now as Jia Hui Liang sips his lotus tea he can't see humans, all he sees are animals and creatures. Ahead him sitting was a slithering snake waiting to bite someone with her venomous fangs, down at the table on the other end is a is nothing but a cowardly sheep waiting to be hunted by wolves. But there is a creature amongst the many table of animals he has yet to be define it shifts with each animal it faces it appears as predator or prey depending on situation and environment it can never underestimated that thing is the concubine Fan.
Looking down he saw the petite male who slightly raises his hand waving saying hi, one would find the innocent actions of this ger cute but Jia Hui Liang is already Oh so use to that friendly and innocent tactic.
He wants to rage, he wants to kill him he is going to kill him, Jia Hui Liang begins to squeeze on to the cup tightlyas he tries to control the hatred in his heart. He'll return a favor to them he'll hurt them all, unable to stand the pressure of the Honorable Consort Jia's strength the cup breaks as he squeezes tightly soon cutting his palm.
"Honorable Master," Ling bows taking his palm and releasing his hand.
Ling is worried it seems like his illness struck again, he is worried.
"Go get the imperial physician," the Noble Consort orders.
"Yes, Madame Chi!"
The spouses felt uneasy with the dampened look in the Honorable Consort Jia's eyes as he doesn't even flinch at the blood running down his palms, was something wrong.
Jia Hui Liang is planning, how can he get his revenge his spirit is angry. He is a vicious ghost he can't rest unless he gets the blood and vengeance he is owed, he is mad he can feel at peace knowing these people are at peace and so the Mad Consort is is plotting.
Upon the Honorable Consort Jia face a soft innocent smile awoken mimicking the foreign innocence of the other spouses that sat at their table.
Jia Hui Liang will now join the den of animals and creatures and this palace will know no peace and the emperor he will love him, his beloved husband he shall love til death, he shall love that man until he hates him. He promises this Mad ghost shall rage on in this palace.
After morning greetings were over Jia Hui Liang was now walking on the pathway, "Ling,"
Ling looks towards the master who was very calm now, but this calmness also worries Ling alot.
"Yes, Honorable master?"
"I'm going to walk down the path of utter ruin, the wicked path that the heavens might not accept me, so before I drag you down with me... leave."
Ling is confused, she looks a her master's back and it seems so lonely and painful she didn't dare abandon such a person even in the midst of going mad.
"I'm sorry honorable master, but I cannot, if it's to 7th depths of the underworld I shall join you with no hesitation."
Jia Hui Liang didn't say anything, soon he slightly turns to Xia, "Xia?"
"I shall do the same Honorable Master if not for you I'd never be able to live fulfilling until now so if it's to the depths I shall join you," she spoke firmly.
Jia Hui Liang nods, "I see, good, very good. Then to the depths we shall go for you two are now my family."
"You honors master," the two bows.
"No need for that, I have many plans in store so let's begin the servants figure out who is loyal to us and who are spies. Understand?"
"Yes master!"
Jia Hui Liang already have a couple suspicions on some of them but he wants Xia and Ling to find them, he will turn the harem upside down and leave Fan Weimin for last after all he and the emperor cost him the most pain they shouldn't have to go first.
"If I'm not mistaken, his imperial majesty is visiting Beauty Shu," Jia Hui Liang mumbles.
If he going to scheme and reap havoc he must do it very carefully after all how good of a mad ghost would he be if he gets catch before he can cause any trouble?
He is thinking, he is planning, he is scheming all at once.
"Ah yes, I know." If he is gonna scheme he must scheme well and he must do it carefully.
Yes, the mad Consort has an idea and soon he must set his action into motion but starting with the doctor and this illness of his. He can bet by now that a spy has already loose their lips about his madness.
