Mother Chen didn't want her to ask any more questions, so Cao Xiwan gave her old mother a face and sneaked in in the middle of the night.
"who?"
Nanzhi pushed the window.
Cao Xiwan flashed away like a night crow, leaving the pear courtyard where the musicians lived.
After all, her Biying Mental Technique cannot last long.
But the next day, Cao Xiwan was attacked. As soon as she stepped onto the steps in the Chunbo Corridor, she suddenly stepped onto a trap, and a sharp bamboo branch swept toward her face with a whoosh.
Qin Meng reached out and grabbed the tips of four bamboo branches.
"What's going on?" Shun Bao'er also passed by and was shocked.
"It doesn't look like an assassination?" Qin Meng frowned and broke the delicate bamboo branch.
Green bamboo leaves are falling.
"As if you want to scratch my face?" She looked at the angle of the bamboo forest outside the corridor, "Are you jealous of my beauty?"
"..." Qin Meng was speechless.
Shun Baoer quickly ran into the study and reported to the Marquis. The Marquis of Nankang's face changed: "Call Xiliu!"
Huh? Did the Marquis suspect that Xiliu was plotting against her? She was surprised when she heard this order, which seemed reasonable? And Shunbao reported that his wife complained about Xiliu's illness and said that she was being raised in the room and had not gone out.
It turned out that Su Jintian, an unreliable master, asked Chen Ming to find Granny Ma and stuff the willow back into the inner courtyard, so that no one was aware of it.
The Marquis of Nankang said displeased: "Go and tell your wife that I will ignore the dowry girl and let your wife control Wenxue and Xiliu. They will not be allowed to leave the main house for these ten days!"
Cao Xiwan thought deeply. It was not wrong for the Marquis to be so suspicious. Not everyone could walk on this Chunbo Corridor, especially women. But this was because the Marquis did not know that Xiliu was on the verge of going crazy and confused.
This girl would chase her with a knife, but she would never have such careful thoughts to set a trap.
It was Nanzhi. Nanzhi even expected that she would come to the outer study to look for Qin Meng and would definitely pass by Chunbo Corridor.
"What's wrong?" Qin Meng saw something strange in her expression, "Who is it? Do you know what it is?"
"Last night, I went to peek at a woman taking a bath." She suddenly said. Qin Meng looked at her, and she mused: "I thought it would be a man, but it was completely a woman."
So was it retaliated against?
Nanzhi is a musician, but he dares to openly retaliate against her in the Hou Mansion?
"A cruel and bold spy has come to the house." She discussed with Qin Meng, "She will also blame Lou Xiliu." Because Nanzhi knew that Cao Xiwan and Lou Xiliu had always been at odds with each other.
.Lou Xiliu wanted to take the Qingluo female ghost instead.
"How could such a trivial thing be taken advantage of?" Cao Xiwan smiled as she sat in her wife's yard, helping Chen's mother with her needlework. That night, she didn't leave until the second watch.
Nanzhi saw Cao Xiwan. The Qingluo female ghost held a lamp and closed the door of the main room with several girls. She turned and walked towards the corridor. Nanzhi leaned gently against the pine trees in the courtyard.
Her figure is like green bamboo, and the moonlight is all over the courtyard.
She saw Cao Xiwan.
She came to kill Qingluo female ghost tonight.
It's like killing the cow eunuch in the secret passage.
"Mother Chen, I have something to discuss with you today." Cao Xiwan whispered to her old mother solemnly. Mother Chen thought it was either Wenxue or Nanzhi, so she sighed and nodded in agreement: "Come and sleep in my room."
Cao Xiwan was secretly happy and glanced at the dim moonlight in the yard. In the main room, Yanzhi, Yunzhu and the others were all delicate beauties.
Xiliu, maybe he will chop her with a knife in the middle of the night.
Only Mother Chen could make that vicious and meticulous spy retreat. When Mother Chen entered the room, she was still pouring tea. When she looked back and saw her crawling on the bed, Mother Chen was shocked: "What's wrong?"
"Let's talk about it?" She turned around, "I just took the time to go back to the room and washed everything."
"Didn't you always tell me to be cautious? Lest others find out that I am like that?"
Nanzhi stayed until midnight. The lamp was turned on in Mama Chen's room, but Cao Xiwan did not come out. She must have slept in Mama Chen's room.
Nanzhi sneered. Sure enough, as the elders speculated, even if she recovered, she would not be able to completely recover.
At most it is the power of a sword.
"With the temperament of Qingluo female ghost, how can she be forbearing? I thought that if she really practiced in seclusion and practiced the Netherworld and Biying mind methods, how could she not kill people to sacrifice the flag? There must be a deceit. You can see that she does have this
Weaknesses, you can act according to circumstances!"
Cao Xiwan felt that she should just pretend to be cowardly.
Although Nan Zhi flew away, Cao Xiwan felt as if he heard the arrogant laughter of a spy in the night wind.
——If the Qingluo female ghost is not afraid, wouldn't it be easy for Nanzhi to kill Song Chengming?
Nanzhi returned to the room, danced lightly in the room, hugged Ruan Qin as usual, and played a piece of music. The music sounded joyful. She remembered that this was the case for Eunuch Niu. This old eunuch sneaked back from Xi'an and knew too much.
. She was ordered to stop Niu Lu when he was walking back to the palace wall.
The Nine Transformations of the Netherworld? Nanzhi remembered that Eunuch Niu really surprised him. It seemed like he had taken pills to practice the Netherworld Technique.
He should be considered a master on the sixth level. Niu Lu still died at his hands. She deliberately forced Niu Lu from near and far, forcing him to take too many pills.
There shouldn't be much difference between this eunuch and the Qingluo female ghost.
In this way, in the Hou Mansion, the only thing to do is to be on guard against Qin Meng.
Then, he assassinated Song Chengming with another blow.
Cao Xiwan suddenly remembered something in the middle of the night.
The next day, she went to the study room outside the second door, stopped Chen Ming and asked, "Does Xiuyun like to play Ruan Qin?"
"...How do you think she got into the palace?"
"???" Didn't he drug her because he was mean and shameless? She asked. Chen Ming despised her: "You don't know what your best friend is capable of?"
"I only know that she is very fierce and often beats me because of our previous friendship. I swallow my anger."
"..." Chen Ming was speechless. She thought again: "My queen liked to play the Ruan Qin when she was in the boudoir. I remember that Xiuyun also seemed to be able to play it? She wasn't very good at playing it."
"...because she can't play better than my empress. Are you stupid?"
Cao Xiwan was surprised and felt that it was expected.
She herself has always felt that it was pitiful that her mother-in-law had no parents, so she did not argue with her mother-in-law or beat her.
But Xiuyun is the other way around. The empress is so pitiful, and she must serve her loyally.
Chen Ming glanced at her sideways. He already knew that she had a weird temperament, and he didn't know what was going on in her mind. He smiled and said: "You haven't thought much about Xiuyun? You are obviously insidious and despicable to us."
"She will hit me." She thought carefully, "You don't dare. I know she will tell me directly if something happens. So I am with her and never think too much about it. Well, just a few days ago she
He pinched me and called me stupid."
"...Her courage, I think she has no brains, so she is very courageous. It is similar to what you are now." Chen Ming reached out and touched the top of her head, "Poor child, because she was not with her parents when she was a child, and she had no friends?
You are still silly now, and you particularly cherish the silly and bold Xiao Yun'er, do you think she is the best friend in a child's dream?"
"..." She stared at him silently, poking her scar.
"...Don't kill me." Chen Ming quickly apologized.
Cao Xiwan ignored him and scolded Huai. She remembered that Lu Xiuyun had several Ruanqins at home: "She said that one of them was given to her by her adoptive father, Eunuch Niu, on her birthday."
This was what she thought of in the middle of the night.
She checked for marks on the bamboo branches outside the Chunbo Gallery. The spies had cut off part of the middle of the bamboo branches when setting up a trap. Qin Meng also saw that it was not cut with a sword.
