Chapter 27 Looking for the murderer with great fanfare

Everyone felt their skin tightening and quickly shook their heads.

"My subordinates dare not!"

Helian Mochuan sneered, did he dare or didn't want to!

It seemed that that woman was really capable. She only used a cold sword to capture the hearts of all his secret guards.

the other side.

Ning Wan returned to Duke Ning's Mansion in a carriage. The two female secret guards had already changed into ordinary coarse cloth clothes, pretending to have just bought them from the tooth shop. The other two male secret guards consciously hid in the dark.

at.

Baozhu asked: "Miss, we have been out for such a long time. What if someone goes to the east courtyard and finds that the slave's body cannot be found?"

Ning Wan curled her lips: "Before I went out, I poisoned the courtyard gate. Don't worry, no one can climb over the wall and get in."

The two female secret guards couldn't help but tense up when they heard this.

These are a pair of cousins. They have no names, only numbers. The eldest is thirteen, and is called Thirteen, and the younger is called Fourteen.

Ning Wan despised this lazy naming behavior.

"From now on, if you follow me, my elder sister will be called Zisu, my younger sister will be called Banxia, ​​and the other two will be called Baizhu and Angelica."

When the two secret guards heard this, they looked at each other and saluted Ning Wan in unison.

"Thank you, Miss, for the name."

The other two secret guards who were following in the dark naturally heard it, and the two of them immediately assigned names.

Returning to the east courtyard, the maid and woman in the courtyard immediately came to greet her. Ning Wan checked the courtyard door carefully and asked.

"Did anyone come here while I was away?"

The woman guarding the gate nodded.

"The maid from Tingxue Pavilion came here once, saying she came to see the orb, but I didn't dare to let her in. She wandered outside the courtyard for a while and then left."

Even though Ning Wandang sneered, he had never heard that Baozhu had a good relationship with the people in Tingxue Pavilion. Baozhu was assassinated last night, so someone came to visit, probably not to see if Baozhu was dead.

However, the hair tied to the door is missing. It seems that there is someone else's spy in her yard!

She glanced at the floor in the room, and then she said to the woman.

"Okay, this is my new maid. You take the three of them down first to change their clothes, and then come see me."

Mrs. Hua lowered her eyebrows and accepted the order.

The floor of the house had been sprinkled with some powder by Ning Wan in advance. If someone came in, they would immediately be able to see their footprints. Apparently the person who pushed the door also noticed this, so he did not dare to come in.

As soon as she sat down on the imperial concubine chair, the maid Lu Zhu came in to serve her tea, Ning Wan said calmly.

"Last night, someone came to the east courtyard to stab Baozhu. Baozhu was seriously injured. Go out and find out who was not in your room at midnight last night. If you do well, I will not treat you badly."

Luzhu responded and went out.

As a result, within the time of a cup of tea, the news that an assassin had entered the east courtyard spread throughout the Duke's mansion. Everyone knew that Baozhu, the maid next to Miss Ning, was injured. In addition to trying her best to treat her, Miss Ning also

The whole house is looking for the murderer.

In the corner, a man and a woman are meeting secretly.

The woman stuffed a bag of silver into the man's hand and lowered her voice.

"My master said that as long as that girl doesn't die, life will be difficult for everyone. This is your last chance. If you fail again, you won't have to come back."

After saying that, she looked around and then quietly turned around and left.

The man took the money, jumped up, and soon disappeared.

At night, the entire Duke's Mansion was quiet.

Ning Wan came out of the house, closed the door, called Zi Su, and deliberately explained loudly.

"Guard this door carefully. I will go to the side courtyard to prepare medicine. Don't let that thief break in again."

Zisu responded.

"Yes, don't worry, young lady, I will not leave even one step."

Ning Wan nodded, walked to the side courtyard next door.

As she walked forward, a head popped up from behind the courtyard wall. Zisu noticed it at a glance, but she calmly picked up a chair and sat down.

Suddenly, there was a flash of cold light, a hidden weapon struck, and Zi Su fell down.

The lips under the black shadow's scarf curled up, and a trace of pride flashed in his eyes. He quickly climbed down the wall, pushed the door open and entered the back room. He soon saw Baozhu lying on the bed with a pale face. He pulled out the dagger,

He raised the knife and stabbed her heart several times.

After pricking, he raised his hand and tried to breathe. When he found that there was no more breath, he left with satisfaction.

However, what he didn't know was that the moment he entered the house, he inhaled Ningwan's special incense. Before he could run far, he was already shaky. He held on to the wall and left the place quickly.

Ning Wan glanced here from the darkness, but did not step forward to arrest him directly. Instead, she pretended to be unaware and returned to the house with the medicine.

Soon, Ning Wan's roar resounded throughout the east courtyard.

"Who is it? Come here, there is an assassin! Catch the assassin quickly!"

After she finished shouting, she cried and shouted again.

"Baozhu, wake up, Baozhu! You can't die—"
