Chapter 044: Dark Shadow

Shen Yan pretended to be crazy and stupid, killing two birds with one stone, solving Jiao Huaiyu's framing of herself, and also solving the danger she brought to the Shen family. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info just thought that she would have to stay in the Hou Mansion for two days to play the back play, and she was really reluctant. However, for the sake of the long term, she agreed. She also asked Li Chengqi to say: "You have to remember to ask the doctor to see me, and the mouths of the people in the house must also be strictly controlled." ”

"I'll arrange it myself."

But Jiao Huaiqing, who said that he lost his wife and broke his army tonight, did not complain because of the defeat after sending back incense to the crown prince Liu Zhuo. When he saw Jiao Huaiyu, he said happily: "It's a blessing and not a curse." The prince said that as long as I find a few more bottles of Huihui incense for him, he will make me a big official. ”

"Really?" Jiao Huaiyu was overjoyed, "My brother is an official, so we don't need to live under the fence like this." ”

"I refused." Jiao Huaiqing said.

"Refused?" Jiao Huaiyu's face immediately changed color.

"Is it so good to return to the incense? Moreover, in exchange for the official, it is okay not to do it. Jiao Huaiqing's eyes were full of disdain, but there were many happy looks before, "It's just that the prince has something to ask for, if I need it in the future, I can ask him to help with a few bottles of Hui Hui incense, which is more beneficial to me." ”

"This time, because of me, I involved my brother." Jiao Huaiyu's expression suddenly became depressed, "Big cousin, have you figured out how to deal with it?" ”

Jiao Huaiqing didn't care, and snorted and said, "Anyway, in the eyes of my eldest cousin, I am not a credible person." I don't care what he thinks of me. Besides, as an elder brother, it is not too much for me to help my sister in matters of my sister's feelings. ”

Jiao Huaiyu nodded, and he was not so worried. She only gritted her teeth and hated Shen Yan to death.

"My sister has a good rest. I'm leaving. ”

"Brother walk slowly."

Jiao Huaiqing did not go back to his residence, but put on a black cloak and went out through the back door of the Hou Mansion - he promised the prince that he would get him a few more bottles of Hui Hui incense to take back to the palace.

And in the backyard of the Hou Mansion, which was shrouded in night, there was also a dark shadow active. This black shadow shuttled to the Fushou Hall where Jiao's lived, used the smoke to make the night watchman sleep, let the sleeping person sleep soundly, and then came to Jiao's house. In front of Jiao's couch, he tucked the quilt for Jiao's, then sat down, looked at the sleeping Jiao's without saying a word, and left after a long time.

Not long after, this black shadow came to Li Chengqi's main courtyard study again. He touched the shelves in the study, the four treasures of the study, the table, and the ancient books on the shelves, as if he was touching his lover......

"I saw a guy sneaking in here." A man's voice sounded in the distance.

"No, Huo Guard, isn't it wrong?" The night watchman asked.

The dark shadow in the study hurriedly escaped from the window, but unexpectedly made a sound, attracting Huo Qing to follow him. As he fled, he realized that wherever he went, there was no hiding place but a guest room. And this room is the room where Shen Yan lives.

He thought about it for a moment and hurriedly knocked on the door.

"Who's knocking on the door so late?" Wisteria, who could hear the voice, rubbed his eyes and opened the door by the moonlight, but after opening the door, there was no one to be seen. She was afraid that she had misheard, so she was about to go back to the house, but unexpectedly, her neck hurt, and her mind lost sensation.

The shadow brought her back to the house after she had fainted, and locked the door.

"Don't move!" Shen Yan used the tip of the hairpin to go straight to the neck of the uninvited guest.

The black shadow obviously didn't expect that his actions would startle the crazy guests in the house. However, he was not afraid of this weak woman. Instead, he quietly prepared a dagger for Shen Yan.

And when he reflexively wanted to give Shen Yan a knife, Shen Yan saw his appearance clearly, and unconsciously said the voice in her heart, "It's you", seeing that he was holding a knife in his hand, she hurriedly removed the hand holding the hairpin, "Don't worry, I won't shout and scream." ”

At this time, Huo Qing's knock sounded outside, and the man immediately put a knife on Shen Yan's neck to intimidate her.

Shen Yan was afraid that if she opened her mouth to shout for help, the white dagger would cut her throat, and she was busy pretending to be woken up, so she complained: "Who still knocks on the door in the middle of the night!" ”

"Miss Shen, it's me." Huo Qing was silent, but still said: "I just saw a figure running here, for the safety of Miss Shen, I also bothered Miss Shen to get up, let me go into the house to check." ”

Shen Yan learned the timbre of wisteria again and said in a low voice: "Huo Guardian has a heart." Miss Shen saw that the doctor drank the medicine but couldn't sleep, and she didn't fall asleep until just now, and I waited for it, but no one came in. Besides, if the door is bolted, no one will come in, so Huo Guard should go to the next place to check. ”

"Excuse me."

After Huo Qing left, Shen Yan said to the person who was holding the knife at him: "Don't mess around, I won't tell people that I have seen you." ”

"Why should I trust you?"

"Because...... Because I don't need to help the people of the Hou Mansion arrest you. Shen Yan smiled dryly.

"I ask you," the man said coldly, "did you pretend to be crazy when the prince came?" Otherwise, how could a madman write down my entourage with the crown prince? ”

Shen Yan knew that when she saw his face at the right time, a question of "it's you" would cause him to question like this, so she was prepared.

"I'm not pretending, I'm not crazy, they're saying I'm crazy." She said solemnly, "I just, sometimes I feel scared, I want to hide, and I don't see anyone...... Is that crazy? Otherwise, how would I remember that you are the person next to the prince? So I'm not crazy, it's they who say I'm crazy. ”

Going around in such a virtual and real circle makes people feel that there is something really wrong with her spirit. However, the person who came did not let her go, and said with a fierce face: "No matter whether you are really crazy or fake crazy, if you have this opportunity today, I will simply kill you to pay for my father's life!" With that, he raised his dagger at Shen Yan.

Shen Yan was frightened and wanted to flee. At this time, the door was finally kicked open! Huo Qing, who had been guarding the door all the time, was going to wait for the opportunity to catch this uninvited guest, and threw his long sword at the right time, but unfortunately, the man avoided it in a thrilling way.

"Wesley?" Huo Qing saw his face clearly and was stunned for a moment.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wesley fled quickly. Huo Qing didn't chase after him, but asked Shen Yan, who was so frightened that she slapped her chest: "Miss Shen is not injured, is she?" ”

"It's dangerous, but fortunately, you understand that what I said from Wisteria has an unspoken meaning."

Shen Yan saw Li Chengqi come back, Huo Qing knew it, and where did he see any doctor and what medicine he drank. Hearing "Wisteria" say this, Huo Qing naturally had a heart. He planned to capture him when he left, but unexpectedly he had murderous intentions against Shen Yan.

"I've never met Wesley, so how could he say he was going to kill me to pay for his father's life?" Shen Yan was puzzled. In her past life and in her life, she had never known any Weasley.

"This Weasley, that's weird." Huo Qing frowned, and he also felt that something was very strange.
