In the ghost courtyard, the night is forested, and there are two locust trees in the courtyard, and the shade of the trees is even more dim. The shade and shadow cover the courtyard, the breeze sweeps, the branches and leaves dance, and the black shadow of the forest is sprinkled on the ground in the courtyard.

As soon as the black shadow swept away, a masked man appeared in front of Jiang Ruoning.

Jiang Ruoning said: "What I asked you to arrange is ready?" ”

It's been a month, and she can't do nothing anymore.

These days, the one who should inquire has been inquired.

Liu Ding's life in the Dingguo Mansion was not good, her husband got mixed with his widowed sister-in-law and younger siblings, and she was also squeezed and ridiculed by her two younger siblings.

Liu Sen gave his respect to Grandma Liu, and divided his love into dozens or hundreds, for him, all the beautiful and young women in the entire Dingguo Mansion could be his.

To be the wife of such a man shows how bitter it is.

The pig replied, "My subordinates have prepared it." ”

Jiang Ruoning exhaled, "That's good, act according to the plan at the fourth watch." ”

The Dingguo Mansion is like an iron bucket, especially after Liu Ding's murder came out, Liu Sen acted too cautiously and couldn't find any clues, she could only dig out the filthy things in the Dingguo Mansion, but these things can only be said to be morally moral, but not enough to convict them.

"Royal pig, abnormal is a demon, and the Dingguo Mansion is not simple. Grandpa Guo is old and sick, and he is bedridden all the year round, and he does not go out of the door. Liu Dagongzi died of illness more than three years ago. The reluctant Liu Sanye, the cowardly and incompetent Liu Siye, the strict Mrs. Liu, and the cold and touching Grandma Liu, tell me your opinion. ”

Ask him?

The royal pig was a little surprised.

The emperor sent him to protect Jiang Ruoning, this is the royal golden branch and jade leaf, as long as she is safe, he will complete the task.

"Pig, I'll let you say, you say yes. I don't blame you for being wrong. ”

"Back to the master!" Yu Zhu paused, "Mrs. Liu is strict and square." A mother gives birth to three sons, and ordinary mothers try to be impartial, but in many families, parents either prefer the eldest son. Either they prefer the younger son, but the second son is rarely favored by his parents. ”

Jiang Ruoning nodded slightly, "You're right, Mrs. Liu's preference for Liu Sen's second son is too much, and her preference is so much that it seems that Liu Sen is her own son." The others, whether they are the eldest son or the youngest son, are the same as other people's, and they ignore the bullying of the younger son, which is too incredible. ”

Yu Zhu groaned: "I have had a few encounters with Liu Xin, and my subordinates have seen Mrs. Liu at that time, she is the most fond of the eldest son, and she has great hopes for Liu Xin." Dingguo Gong poured all his efforts into Liu Xin......"

The families of the five military governors attach the most importance to the eldest son, especially the eldest son, because they will inherit the position of the governor in the future, and almost every family focuses on cultivating the head of the family. Earlier, Dingguo Gong also trained Liu Xin. But later, Liu Sen was suddenly cultivated, which was really strange, and as far as he knew, Liu Xin did not make a big mistake, and if there was no big mistake, the family would not have been replaced.

Jiang Ruoning asked: "How could Liu Xin suddenly lose the favor of his parents later?" ”

"I heard that Mrs. Liu wanted Liu Xin to marry her grandmother, but Liu Xin was unwilling, so the mother and son had a mustard."

Even if this is the case, there is no need to make a mother-son relationship.

Grandma Liu and Liu Sen got together, and Jiang Ruoning was in Dingguo Mansion for a month. has seen Liu Xin's two youngest sons, she once heard that Liu Sen and Liu Lei look six points similar, and the appearance of the two children is a little strange. Some look like Liu Sen, and some can't see who they are.

In other words: those two little young masters must be Liu Sen's blood and bones, not Liu Xin's children.

Jiang Ruoning moved the lotus step lightly, let his thoughts fly, and thought about these unreasonableness: "The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, since the most important thing is the cultivation of the eldest son. There is no reason for Dingguo and his wife to give up on Liu Xin when he marries. But...... Let's think boldly, if Liu Xin is not wrong, it is Mrs. Liu who is wrong? I suspect that Liu Sen is not from Dayan, you look at his appearance, and that ...... Cough...... Unlike the Central Plains men......"

Driving a few women in one night, not tired, and every time Grandma Liu San and Grandma Liu Si tossed once, they didn't go out for three days after they went back, and they stayed in bed all the time, such combat effectiveness is really impressive.

Jiang Ruoning closed her eyes slightly, "Mrs. Liu's face is expressionless, that face is just like the Bodhisattva in the temple, she is not annoyed when she is angry, she is not smiling when she is happy, she is just like Grandma Liu......"

A flash of inspiration flashed through her mind, and she abruptly stopped continuing.

She remembered that she was wearing a human skin mask and pretending to be Xiaoqiang, and she was not sad, happy or angry in the mirror.

"Pig!" Jiang Ruoning called, "Do you say that Mrs. Liu and Grandma Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are fake?" ”

"Fake?" The royal pig was stunned.

Jiang Ruoning said again: "I mean, they wore masks and dressed up as Grandma Liu and Mrs. Liu. ”

Yu Zhu quickly recalled the appearance of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the same expressionless, Grandma Liu is a cold beauty, but this cold arrogance is exuded from her bones.

"Pig, is that good? Tonight, you let the two of them go to the grandmother's courtyard to pretend to be Liu Ding's scary, and first try to see if Grandma Liu is wearing a human skin mask. Me and you, go to the courtyard of the Dingguo Mansion to test Mrs. Liu and Dingguo Gong? ”

"My subordinates will arrange it."

If Mrs. Liu is fake, it can explain why Mrs. Liu prefers Liu Sen and ignores the eldest son and younger son.

So, does Dingguo know the clues in the meantime?

*

At the fourth watch, the moon is in the west.

Jiang Ruoning dressed up as a small servant, dressed in a black night suit, and went to the courtyard where the Dingguo Duke and his wife lived with the royal pig.

After Dingguo Gong fell ill, he lived in the East House, and Mrs. Liu lived in the West House with her mother-in-law and maid.

Jiang Ruoning took the smoke and blew a few puffs into the house, and after a while, after making sure that the girls on duty at night were asleep, Fang entered the inner room of Dingguo Gong, and probed Ding Guogong's neck with his hand, not a mask.

Took out the antidote and sniffed it for him.

Ding Guogong opened his eyes, the person was too thin, almost skinny, and he looked at the capable little guy in front of him with a blank face. "You were sent by the son of a? Want to kill me? ”

Jiang Ruoning has been looking for an opportunity to get close to Dingguo Gong for more than a month, but Liu Sen has always said that Dingguo Gong needs to recuperate and refuse all the visiting guests, "Son? You mean Liu Sen? ”

"Can I trust you?"

Dingguo Gong was suspicious, he didn't know.

In the past few years, Liu Sen has taken him too closely.

All the people who served around him were replaced.

Jiang Ruoning took out a sign of Dali Temple catching fast from his arms, and gave Guogong a look at both sides, and said solemnly: "Last year, Liu **'s grandmother and twelve servants were killed in Guanyin Town, Qingxi County, and the body was not found until this spring. ”

"He killed my Xin'er, and he killed my wife, he ......"

Before Dingguo Gong finished speaking, there was a sound of suddenness outside, saying that it was too late, it was fast, and the royal pig came down from the beam, pushed Jiang Ruoning away, opened the sword, and blocked more than ten darts.

Ahh

Jiang Ruoning was shocked, and turned back suddenly, but saw a dart pierced into Dingguo's forehead, a stream of blood overflowing from the wound, and his eyes widened, as if he was sad and angry. Ding Guogong dragged a sachet in his hand, the color was faded, and the embroidery thread was hairy, which was often held in his hand.

Jiang Ruoning took the sachet, just earlier, Dingguo Gong had been holding this sachet in his hand, this sachet seemed to be what he had been holding, which must be an extremely important thing for him.

The royal pig hugged Jiang Ruoning, "Master, you can't stay any longer, someone is coming." ”

"I want to know if Mrs. Liu is real or not?"

Jiang Ruoning put away the sachet and went out of the east house and went straight to the west house, except for the girl on duty at night in the west room, Mrs. Liu was not seen on the big couch, and in the middle of the night, Mrs. Liu did not rest in her room.

Outside, the boots were rolling, and Liu Sen shouted: "Surround the main courtyard, and no assassin is allowed to escape!" ”

"So fast!" Jiang Ruoning entered here, and it was less than two minutes before and after Liu Sen appeared, and the Dingguo Mansion was heavily defended, she thought that she was cautious, but she still alarmed the Liu family's nursing home.

The royal pig hugged Jiang Ruoning's waist, revealing a little firmness through the mask's eyes, "Master, I'll take you out." As soon as he raised his arm, with a whoosh, an iron arrow erupted from his sleeve, and he hit the roof beam, then withdrew the iron arrow, and then shot it out of thin air into the tall building, and he hugged her towards the tall building.

Liu Sen looked at the two people flying out of the roof and shouted, "Shoot!" Shoot the assassin to death! Shoot fast! ”

The pig suddenly turned around and used his body to block the arrows.

His body trembled, and there was a smile in his eyes, gentle and doting.

In the past month, Jiang Ruoning has felt countless times that she knows the royal pig, even if he is wearing a mask, but the breath and body fragrance on his body always make her feel familiar.

He thought about everyone he knew, but he never got it right.

"Royal Pig!"

"Master, don't worry, this place is two hundred zhang away from the main courtyard, even if Liu Sen wants to run over, he won't be able to come for a while, this place is not suitable for a long time, he must leave immediately."

Jiang Ruoning nodded slightly.

The two quickly left the Dingguo Mansion and stopped in the alley in the lotus flower for a while, Jiang Ruoning walked in front, the royal pig followed, and the two ran quickly in the direction of Dali Temple.

In a deserted night street, a few bats flew under the moon.

Is he going to die?

He has no regrets about dying for her, and this is what he owes her.

It was he who calculated her, and it was he who ruined her good relationship.

He looked at the Dali Temple not far away, and she was still running fast in front, ten zhang, eight zhang......

She approached the side door of Dali Temple and knocked on the door cymbals.

On the back of his arm, there was a heart-rending pain, and he was hit by an arrow.

This is a poisonous arrow, and Liu Sen has a heart to kill.

"Pig, we're at Dali Temple. There is really a problem with the Dingguo Mansion! Mrs. Liu is fake, and Liu Xin is the ...... killed by Liu Sen and the fake Mrs. Liu."

The guard of Dali Temple opened the door.

Jiang Ruoning took out his identity card, "We're back!" ”

When she turned around, she found that the royal pig was missing, "Pig! Pig ......"

She immediately turned around and searched, and on the stone street twenty feet away, the royal pig was lying quietly on the ground, with a feather arrow stuck in his back.

"Stupid!" Jiang Ruoning scolded, she remembered, just when he took her to escape from the main courtyard of the Dingguo Mansion, Liu Sen ordered the arrow, he was injured at that time, from the Dingguo Mansion in the lotus to here, three or four miles away, but he has been enduring it.
