094 Start with the dead
The second watch's bangzi had just sounded, and in the pitch-black Qinglan courtyard without a single candlelight, three ghostly figures flashed in. In the dark night, only the rhythmic breathing of the maids and women sounded from time to time, but Qinglan Courtyard welcomed a few uninvited guests at this moment.
As if she had been on guard, Chi Linglong put on her clothes completely, and when she heard the sound of shallow footsteps coming from the room, she sat up from the bed in a hurry. casually asked, "Coming?" ”
Mo Yi: "......"
Mowu: "......"
Aren: "......"
Such a calm and natural attitude as if to entertain a guest is not surprised at all, not shocked at all, and must not be surprised, what is this making trouble?
No matter how thick-skinned Mo Wu was, under the pressure of the sight of the neatly dressed girl in front of him, he seemed to suddenly feel a little weak and short of breath.
This girl's deep and dark eyes were as black as obsidian, and he looked at him with a lack of confidence, as if he had done something heinous.
Mo Wu was a little embarrassed. opened his mouth to speak, and there was an unprecedented stammer, "Come, come." ”
Kao, what's coming? They didn't come to spy on other girls' baths, and they didn't come to do any ugly and dirty things, but they came to uphold justice and justice for this girl, why do they feel so sorry for others?
Mo Wu's face turned black and dark, and he felt, well, his mentality was wrong, and he needed to adjust decisively!
At this moment, Ah Ren had already sat down on the round bench beside Chi Linglong. Curiously glanced at the well-dressed clothes on Chi Linglong's body, Ah Ren's small eyes were bright and shiny, and asked, "Alas, I said, do you know that we are coming?" Are you waiting for us? ”
Chi Linglong: "......" Can she sue them, is she just waiting for the assassin?
Forget it, when I say this, I am afraid that not only will it not scare this child who doesn't know the height of the sky, but it will make this person even more excited and unwilling to go back.
Chi Linglong raised her eyebrows slightly, and said indifferently: "Well, I guessed." ”
When Ah Ren heard Chi Linglong's words, his little eyes brightened. If it weren't for Mo Yi, who was sitting beside him, to hold him in time, this person would no longer be able to remember the purpose of their coming here tonight, and instead began to have a long talk with the girl in front of him.
Ah Ren and Mo Yi were not talking, so Chi Linglong also followed their gaze and cast her gaze on Mo Wu, who had a "boss-like" face.
Seeing that Mo Wu really coughed twice pretendedly, and then said to her, "The girl knows what we are doing here today?" ”
Chi Linglong shook her head and said with a very cooperative attitude, "You say." ”
Mo Wu: Is the feeling of "......" always deflated by his delusion? The corners of Mo Wu's mouth began to twitch uncontrollably.
Simply he is also a generous person, so he also straightened his face at the moment, and said to Chi Linglong: "We came here to discuss with the girl last night, I don't know what the girl thought about?" ”
"Go to Beijing?" Chi Linglong asked.
The three men nodded in unison.
Chi Linglong sneered, "Is my opinion important?" If I really don't want to go to the capital, are you sure you are willing to respect my opinion? ”
Mo Wu's face stiffened, Mo Yi's brows wrinkled into the word "Chuan", Ah Ren's temperament was the most jumpy, and when he heard that Chi Linglong meant that he didn't want to go, he couldn't help but stand up and wanted to ask, "What do you mean by this?" "Simply, in the end, he was suppressed by Mo Yi.
Chi Linglong saw that the faces of the three men in front of her were a little ugly, and some pleasure after revenge inevitably flashed in her heart. However, she also knew in her heart that the matter of going to Beijing was not something she would not go to if she wanted to, and she could not be the master of this matter.
Therefore, no longer provoke the three of them at the moment, but Chi Linglong said slowly: "Say, what do you want to say when you come here?" ”
Several people were silent again, and after a moment, Mo Wu, who was still the representative, spoke, "We hope that the girl can enter Beijing with us." As soon as the words stopped here, in Chi Linglong's raised eyebrows, Mo Wu continued to say, "The time is about five days later." ”
"Five days later?" Chi Linglong was completely shocked at this time.
"What? The girl thinks this time is inappropriate? Mo Wu asked negotiably.
Chi Linglong shook her head and nodded, "This time is too rushed." ”
In five days, it was indeed too hurried for her to persuade Zhou and the old lady to agree to her going to Beijing, plus packing up. The matter of saluting can be put aside, but if she wants to convince Zhou and the old lady, she can't be sure if these five days are enough.
Without hesitation, Chi Linglong repeated what she had just said again, and deliberately accentuated her tone, "Five days is indeed too rushed." ”
Seeing that the other three people looked disapprehensive and knew that they would be like this, Chi Linglong's heart couldn't help jumping, and almost without thinking about it, she blurted out a sentence, "Have you figured out a way to let me get out?" ”
Mo Wu and Mo Yi were at the same time for this girl's keen intuition, and their eyebrows jumped irrepressibly a few times. On the contrary, it was Ah Ren, who didn't seem to have guessed that Chi Linglong would be so smart. Therefore, his mouth grew up in shock, and it took a long time to say a sentence aggrieved and complaining, "Aren't you so stupid?" ”
“……”
Chi Linglong glanced at Ah Ren, and then turned her head to look at Mo Wu. His face sank, and he asked, "What have you thought of?" ”
Her eyes were a little cold at this moment, and the tone of her voice said that she was asking, but rather questioning. In other words, she didn't trust them, and she didn't think they could come up with any good ideas.
Chi Linglong looked at Mo Wu with a defensive and vigilant expression.
Sure enough, I saw Mo Wu cough twice more, and then covered his mouth with his hand and muttered softly, "We found out, uh, your mother became pregnant with your brother soon after returning from the capital......"
Mo Wu's voice was too low, if it weren't for the silence in the dark night at this moment, Chi Linglong was listening to him with all his heart, and he almost couldn't hear what Mo Wu said.
However, Chi Linglong heard it clearly.
Therefore, it was only in an instant, and her face, which was originally only vigilant, instantly became cold and cold.
Her gaze turned sharp, and her dark eyes shot out a sharp light that could almost cut people with a thousand knives, this eye light was too sharp and too cold, even Mo Wu, the three big men who licked blood on the knife all the year round, had to admit that when they were swept away by this little girl's eyes, their bodies froze uncontrollably.
They were intimidated by the deterrence of a twelve-year-old girl, and directly ...... Cowardly?
Mo Wu's face also darkened at this moment. He couldn't bear the fact that he was frightened by a little girl who didn't even have a good match, so his face was even more ugly than Chi Linglong at this moment.
And Chi Linglong thought of the possible plans of this group of people almost when Mo Wu said Fang Cai's words.
Her aunt Ning Shi was indeed pregnant again shortly after returning from accompanying Chi Zhongyuan to Beijing for work.
Before this, when the Ning family was in the capital, she went to Yingmei Nunnery on the outskirts of Beijing twice, and on the way back from where she rescued the old lady of the original Anguo Mansion, and therefore decided on her relationship with Mu Changyao.
Of course, none of this is the point.
The point is that although the Shadow Plum Nunnery is a place for the imperial family to detain the women who have made mistakes in the house, but because the Shadow Plum Nunnery was built by the founding queen of the Great Wei Dynasty at the beginning, the later Empress Dowager Jingmin Xiaoci, and it is also the place where she cultivated in her later years, therefore, in addition to being famous for its strict rules, it has always been considered by the world to be under the royal shade, in which most of the wishes and prayers for the Buddha can be achieved.
The child in Ning's womb who was later conceived, whether it was the master or the slave of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, all believed that it was Ning's dedication to praying in Yingmei Nunnery that he was blessed by Guanyin Niangniang.
However, Ning later died of a hemorrhage in childbirth, and the son she gave birth to was a stillborn child?!!
Naturally, there are not a few filths in the big family, and Chi Linglong once suspected Ning's death, and there are some other secrets that cannot be said. Either the old lady did something in it, or the Zhou family also mixed in it......
However, when she doesn't have the ability to find out what is wrong without alarming others, she won't do it lightly.
The three people in front of them are already ...... Know anything else?
They wanted to take advantage of the Ning family and her younger brother, who couldn't even enter the tooth order, as an opportunity to let the old lady and the Zhou family ...... Be a thief with a weak heart, so that she can successfully go to Beijing?
Chi Linglong had probably cleared up her thoughts in her heart, so the look on her face was even colder.
Mo Yi and Ah Ren don't speak, and Mo Wu may also feel that talking about the deceased biological mother and younger brother of the little girl is a little inhumane and a little cruel. But that's the best they can think of right now. Moreover, although this method is a little damaged, it is not useless?
At the very least, in his opinion, it would be quite good for the little girl in front of him.
Although he hadn't known this little girl for a few days, he also knew that it wasn't a worry-free thing.
Don't look at the appearance of being well-behaved and clever, I don't know how many curves there are in my heart. Hmph, if he wants him to say, that is, he can calculate this girl, otherwise, if Ah Ren and Mo Yi are on the field, these two people will definitely not be able to walk twice in the hands of this girl, and they will be fooled into not being able to distinguish between the southeast and the northwest.
Mo Wu straightened his face again, and tempted Chi Linglong and said, "I think that if you really want to find out the murderer of your biological mother and brother, you might as well give it a try according to our plan." The trick of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger sometimes works very well. ”
Although Mo Wu intuitively felt that the death of this little girl's aunt must have something to do with the Zhou family, or the old lady in this mansion, they did investigate in this direction.
However, it is a pity that the midwife, doctor, maid, and mother-in-law used by the Ning family on the day of delivery have all died a few years ago...... RS
