Eunuch He didn't understand Cao Xiwan's intention of entering the mansion. Did he really come to discuss visiting the imperial mausoleum with Xiliu?
"How could you not know? You can guess that there is an ambush." Liu Ruhai laughed, put down the cup on the stone table, raised his eyes, "She came to say hello to me."
Eunuch He was puzzled.
Liu Ruhai had just sat with her. After speculating for a while, he also figured it out: "She suddenly entered the palace just to let me know. Don't make personal enemies with her. It's best for her father's relatives to be safe and never see each other again."
That’s fine, but you have to live. Otherwise, she wouldn’t even dare to attack the feudal king.”
Eunuch He was startled: "Didn't she spot the fake prince? There are rumors in the capital that she got the clues about the fake prince case first."
"How is that possible?" Liu Ruhai stood up and laughed endlessly, "She has to deal with four demon lords, and she still has the time to find out whether it is the real prince or the fake prince? Kill all those who get in the way, no matter who they are, so that she can survive."
"..." It sounds a bit cruel. Isn't it because she is born rebellious that she can't do this? Eunuch He thought, she is quite suitable to win over. But he looked at Manager Liu quietly, and Manager Liu seemed to think that it was impossible to win over the Qingluo girl.
Ghost.
Liu Ruhai went back to his room to rest, but turned back and looked at the dark blue sky and night above the palace.
Her trip out here must not only be to enter Prince Zhou's Mansion.
She must have also gone to the nearby Prince Qin's Mansion in Shunyifang.
late at night.
The secret room in the inner palace of the Prince's Mansion.
Under the light of a lamp, Wen Ruo and Wen Sheng guarded the crown prince loyally. In the center of the secret room, Li Shuyu looked sick, but he was practicing cross-legged on the girdle.
At three o'clock in the morning, Li Shuyu closed his eyes tightly and his face glowed with greenness.
The moonlight was like mist, and there was a look of pain on his face.
Wen Ruo and Wen Sheng were extremely nervous. The prince Li Shuyu was practicing the Nine Transformations of the Netherworld.
This was Master Feng's advice. The prince's illness and injury could not be cured. Practicing the Nine Transformations of Netherworld might be of some use.
He said to the prince: "Shi Mingniang is my sister-in-law. She has a batch of secrets from the previous dynasty of Lord Feng Dao. It is written in it that there were injuries like this to the prince in the palace of the previous dynasty. He took the elixir.
It never got better after that. Later, the Mongolian master wrote the Nine Transformations of the Netherworld, and he was cured after practicing."
The prince's symptoms were stiffness in the limbs and paralysis of the whole body. Gu Yuanfang had never dared to reveal anything to the outside world.
There was nothing the Imperial Hospital could do. Wen Ruo and Wen Sheng had no choice but to let the prince give it a try, using the dead horse as a living doctor.
Your Majesty, after taking ten pills of longevity and longevity, I was able to sit cross-legged on my own for the time being and start practicing.
Li Shuyu gritted his teeth and thought, don't let him recover, he will never be able to spare Qingluo female ghost.
In the inner hall, the Crown Princess Song Jia Shu was meditating sadly, holding an exquisite rose gold wire earring in her hand.
In fact, when she got married, Xiaowan was her dowry girl, and she gave these pair of earrings to Xiaowan. Cao Xiwan once made an agreement with her: "For many years, Miss Chenger has always treated me with affection and kindness.
Xiao Wan is not a heartless person either."
This pair of earrings was a token of a secret agreement. When Xiaowan was injured and returned to the Marquis' Mansion, she told her privately that if the Crown Princess wanted to see her for something and it was not convenient for her to tell the inside story, she would give her a rose gold thread.
The earrings are back.
The meaning of this gold earring is: Please protect yourself. Neither your husband nor your natal brothers can be relied on.
At the same time, Nanzhi slipped out of Song Weiren's yard in the Lotus Courtyard of the second room and sneaked into the watch room outside the second door of Nankang Hou Mansion.
"Who?" Aunt Wu was still crying for her daughter. It was rare for her to be alone in the night watch room. The women on night watch knew that her daughter had entered the palace and became a female official and followed the eldest lady, so they did not dare to bully her. She suddenly heard the noise.
When I looked back, I saw a dark shadow.
The black shadow held a knife in his hand, and Aunt Wu trembled in fright, remembering her daughter's instructions, but she was really scared, and before the black shadow came closer, the green shadow in her sleeve shot out with a porcupine sound.
The shadow fell.
Aunt Wu herself was so frightened that she couldn't move. After a long while, she struggled to crawl over and found a dead person on the ground.
Her head was covered and she misremembered her daughter's words. She got up and ran to the duty room. She forgot that after killing someone, she should first find the company manager to bury the body. Fortunately, Qin Meng happened to be in the duty room.
Seeing Mrs. Wu running over in panic, she told her what had happened: "Yes... yes... I killed a person just now."
It was a spy. Qin Meng realized it instantly. Cao Xiwan's mother was a gentle and weak woman, and she would never kill anyone without reason. He knew it well.
When he arrived at the second-door night watch room, Liancheng had already arrived. It turned out that the woman who was watching the night came back and discovered the body.
"...Is this the spy that he has been trying to catch?" Liancheng looked at the body carefully and found that it was a middle-aged servant woman. He remembered that it should be someone from the sixth room. This was unexpected. No wonder they have not been found. I'm afraid the sixth master and his wife were
Do not know at all.
Qin Meng called Mama Luo and Granny Song over. After the autopsy, Mama Luo found that the body shape was correct, much like the figure of the spy she found in the house a while ago. Granny Song carefully looked at the fingers of the deceased, and there was a musician who was good at playing string instruments.
Traces of cocoons on musical instruments.
"It should be her."
The ladies in brocade clothes were discussing how to report to the Marquis. But Manager Lian Er was only suspicious of why this man wanted to attack Aunt Wu.
Anyone who stares at the Qingluo female ghost will know that her mother is not worth mentioning.
And Cao Xiwan was most afraid of making personal enemies with others. Anyone who had personal enemies with her would die in her hands. Of course, she was on guard against cutting the grass without eradicating the roots. The enemies would come back to avenge her family in the future. The spookiness of her Qingluo female ghost
The nickname doesn't come for nothing.
In the darkness, after watching this murder case, Nanzhi left quietly along the jagged rockery and stone shadows.
Returning to Heyuan, the second son, Song Weiren, now lives in the small courtyard at the south end of Heyuan. Since he was appointed as the Nanhe Hundred Household Office, he is too busy and has more social activities. He often comes back late at night and is so tired that he falls asleep. Naturally, he does not hear any sound.
Nanzhi went back to his room, closed the door and meditated. This shadowy middle-aged servant was arranged by Feng Xianshi, and she deliberately jumped out to die. Of course, it was to serve as a substitute for Nanzhi and prevent Jin Yiwei from continuing to inspect the Hou Mansion, so as not to reveal her identity.
, missed the important event of becoming Master Fengxian.
The only thing Nanzhi didn't expect was that Aunt Wu didn't look like a master.
But Nanzhi leaned on the pillow, always feeling that this Aunt Wu was hiding a secret. He once sneaked back to the Prince's Mansion for this matter and reported it to Master Feng Xian. Feng Junqing shook his head: "Impossible. I have seen her too, more than once.
She is a weak and timid woman."
This is indeed the case. Nanzhi thought. He calmed down, put down the tent and hurriedly fell asleep. Everything went well, didn't it? While the Qingluo female ghost was about to have a decisive battle with Shi Mingniang, and Mrs. Houfuli was about to give birth again, maybe he could finally get it.
The opportunity you've been waiting for.
At the second door, Granny Ma hid in the dark and saw the body being carried away, but she also saw another dark figure in the rockery near the night watch room. She guessed it was Nanzhi. This dark figure went back to the lotus courtyard of the second room.
. Lady Qing had told her to keep an eye on her: "I'm here, and the spies won't show up. When I enter the palace, you can keep an eye on me and investigate quietly."
One light and one dark is the agreement between Qin Meng and her.
Cao Xiwan was particularly familiar with the official road leading to the imperial mausoleum and the palace. She took Xiliu and Xiao Zhao out of the city as soon as it got dark, and then squatted on the roadside, lying in the grass and staring at the official road.
The moonlight is hazy, spring insects are chirping, Xiao Zhao and Xiliu secretly glance at each other, is the young lady waiting for her enemy?
Master Gray Thorn had said that in this duel between her and Shi Mingniang, someone would deliberately intervene and want to kill her.
Gray Thorn said: "She must strike first, so she has found you two as helpers. You might as well follow her, and you can also see the world and gain experience."
