212. 211 - Crying in the middle of the night
After that, Lian Ziyan said goodbye to Concubine Xiao Shu and returned to Qing'an Palace.
Three days later, in the evening, Su Meiren suddenly heard a baby's cry in her catkins palace. She was stunned, and suddenly remembered what Mu Xiaoyu said in her ear that day.
'The man whom you have slain will come back to you and ask for his life. ’
Thinking of this, her heart trembled suddenly, did the baby eighteen years ago come to her to ask for her life?
Soon, she forced herself to calm down, and all this was just her own deception. She went back to bed and lay down, covering half of her face under the covers. Suddenly feeling a cold feeling in the back of her head, she suddenly seemed to think of something, and immediately sat up and looked at the pillow. There was a scarlet patch in between, and I don't know whose blood it was.
She immediately screamed, and almost crawled away from the edge of the bed, leaning on the table and looking at the bed, always feeling a baby sitting there and smiling at her.
The two personal palace maids trotted in one after another when they heard her screams, and even some of the palace maids behind them were now outside the door with their heads bowed and did not dare to enter.
One of the palace maids asked, "Beauty, is something wrong?" ”
Su Meiren glanced at her, grabbed her shoulders with both hands and said, "Did you hear it, did you all hear it, don't you all think it's strange that there is a child's cry?" ”
The palace maid looked at her stunned, shook her head and said, "The slave didn't hear anything." ”
The beauty fell silent all of a sudden, listening carefully to the sound outside the door. But now it's really as the palace maid said, there is no child's cry at all, is all this her hallucination?
At this time, the palace maid was surprised again: "Ah, beauty, you are injured." ”
Su Meiren's heart that she had just put down lifted again, "Where, where is there a wound?" ”
The palace maid pointed to her neck and said, "There seems to be blood on the back of the neck." ”
Su Meiren brushed her hair in front of her, touched her neck with her hand, and suddenly felt a burst of pain, she gasped, she didn't feel anything just now, but now she felt extremely painful. She looked at the red blood stains on her hands and concluded that none of this was a hallucination, including the child's cry just now. Someone is planning all this, someone is doing it on purpose.
After a simple bandage, she ordered the maid to arrange the sheets and quilts, which were stained with blood and could no longer be used. Soon, the palace maid put the things she had packed up in front of Su Meiren.
Sumito crouched down to carefully inspect the quilt and other items, and Zuihou noticed something unusual on the edge of the pillow. I saw that there was a raised piece of iron on the edge that should have been smooth, and the sharp edge was right at her. But this piece of iron does not reveal much, and the wound is not very deep, so there is no reason why there will be so much blood. This can only mean one thing, and some of the blood on it is not hers.
However, if this blood was not hers, it would have been prepared in the pillow a long time ago. She found a pair of scissors and cut the pillow in half. I saw that the iron piece was not just a little bit, but a little long, and the other end was connected to the oiled paper. This kind of paper water can't be thrown, and it's just right to put the blood that has been prepared for a long time.
It's just that she can't figure out how to make the blood ooze out at this time since it is oil paper that blood can't pass through.
