Serendipitous discovery
After listening for a while, there was only the sound of whirring wind outside the door, and there was no other sound, I looked at Chun Tao, quietly shook my head, and motioned for her not to speak yet, Chun Tao immediately understood what I meant, and nodded.
I took off my cloak to prevent it from hindering my movements, and slumped over to the window, where the moonlight was dazzling, and I adjusted an angle to look outside, which frightened me into sitting on the ground.
The window next to the door was not lowered, and a one-foot-wide opening was opened, and I squatted by the window, and looked up at the door, where a dark figure was standing, motionless.
I sat on the ground, the sweat on my back was running down, and I crawled back to Chun Tao from the window on my knees, my body trembling uncontrollably. What the hell is going on, my mind is a mess right now.
The two of us leaned against each other, and the whole room could only hear the sound of shallow breathing, and if we listened carefully, there was a slight trembling. In this way, Chun Tao and I sat stiff all night, and no one dared to speak.
The sky was slightly bright, and someone in the courtyard began to move, and I heard movement on Murong's side in a daze, so I had to force my body to get up and look.
"Miss, where are you going?"
I just heard that, and then the world went around and I didn't know what was going on.
Chun Tao panicked, she cried and crawled out the door, shouting for help. Chun Tao's mournful cry attracted Aunt Cai, the kitchen mother who got up early in the morning to cook, she was frightened by Chun Tao's sudden cry, at first she thought it was haunted, and Aunt Cai was very frightened, until she heard Chun Tao's cry for help clearly, she reacted and walked over to Chun Tao's side, because she was in a hurry, her hair was scattered.
"Oops, what's wrong with this?"
"The eldest lady fainted...... Quick, go and call someone! ”
"Good, good." Aunt Cai looked at this scene and hurriedly called someone to invite Lang Zhong.
After that, Chun Tao helped me to the bed with her own strength, and I scared her and my grandmother who came to hear the wind.
"Chun Tao, what's wrong with Miss Muxi?"
"Old lady, it's not good to be a spring peach, she didn't take good care of Miss, she contracted the wind cold last night, and she didn't have a good rest, so she fainted this morning......"
"What about Lang Zhong? Did you see it? After that, I heard Chun Tao say that my grandmother was so anxious that she spun around in place and stomped her feet.
"Old lady, Lang Zhong has already gone to grab medicine."
"Oh, you guys don't let me worry about it one by one! This Murong hasn't woken up yet, and this Qian girl has been sick again. "Grandma is really busy.
Although I was confused, I could hear the sounds outside, grandma, Chun Tao, I could hear them all, but I was really tired and wanted to sleep again.
In Wanfuzhong, Zhe Xuan was reporting to Wan Yang about last night's situation and changes, and after Wan Yang heard it, he hooked his lips and smiled coldly, holding a dart in his hand repeatedly.
"Zhexuan, look at this dart, is it familiar?" Seeing this, Zhe Xuan immediately reached out and took it and took a closer look.
"This ...... Isn't this what the killer of the assassin used to do so? Zhi Xuan looked incredulous.
"yes, I'm afraid it was for me yesterday." Wan Yang smiled and opened the folding fan in his hand and paced back and forth in the room.
"So, yesterday Mufu was affected by us and suffered an unwarranted disaster?" Zhenxuan's eyes widened.
"Perhaps." Wan Yang is still understandable.
"Master, then how do we deal with it this time?"
"Hold still, do what you should do, tighten inside and loosen outside."
"Whoa." Zhe Xuan led the order to retreat.
Wan Yang in the room was bored, remembering that he used his secret guard yesterday, and he just used his beauty to tempt Xia Mei's stupid girl.
"Women are wrong, women are wrong!" Wan Yang slapped his forehead with a fan, blaming himself for being too emotional.
"Second brother, what woman made a mistake?" A tall figure entered Wan Yang's room.
Wan Yang immediately came back to his senses when he heard the voice: "Big brother, it's okay, it's just emotional."
"A romantic character like the second brother is still afraid that a woman will make a mistake?"
This eldest son of the Wan family is the eldest son, although he is the son-in-law, but this Wanda has a bad reputation in the city, and he visits the Qinglou every day, and flirts with the women of good families, but because this Wanda is the son of a powerful man, he has to swallow his anger.
"The eldest brother laughed, no matter how romantic the second brother is, how can he compare to a character like the eldest brother."
"Hey, it's not right for the second brother to say that, the eldest brother has something to look for you today, it's a good thing!" Wanda mysteriously leaned into Wan Yang's ear and whispered.
"Oh? Is it? Wan Yang was quite interested after hearing this.
"Big brother told you, that dancing girl is really graceful!" Wanda looked intoxicated.
"Okay, let's accompany my eldest brother to meet this graceful dancer in the famous city today." Wan Yang shook the fan in his hand, his eyes blazing.
"Hahahahahaha Wanda Junlang's face was full of smiles, "Then the big brother will go shopping elsewhere first, and call you to go with me at night!" ”
"Thank you for your care." Wan Yang clenched his hands into fists.
Wanda laughed and walked away.
"Come out." Wan Yang restrained the expression on his face and said in a deep voice to the empty room.
A man in black jumped down from the beam of the house and knelt on one knee to accept Wan Yang's instructions.
"You talked to that girl Xia Mei yesterday, do you think she is a dangerous person?"
"Master, my subordinates think that this girl is not in danger, just a scheming maid in the compound." The man in black replied honestly.
"Well, you don't have to protect me during this time, find out the situation in Mufu, by the way, protect Muxi."
"Whoa." In the blink of an eye, there was only one afterimage of the people on the ground.
Headache, headache about to explode, like there were countless dense needles piercing my head, it hurt......
I heard the sound of water in my ears, and then a cool thing was attached to my forehead, and slowly the pain subsided, and the coolness of my forehead became more and more obvious.
I barely opened my eyes, I always felt that there were thousands of pounds on my eyelids, my eyes were sore, and my eyes were white, and I shook my head vigorously to make myself sober and sober.
"Miss? Miss, are you awake? "Chun Tao is calling me in my ears, and there is still a roar in my ears, which makes people unable to hear clearly.
"Huh?" I struggled to raise my arm to rub my eyes, and the pain was unbearable. Chun Tao put down the cloth in her hand and slowly helped me sit up on the bed.
"Chun Tao, what time is it?"
"Miss, it's noon. I'm going to get you food, you've slept all morning, and you're definitely hungry. ”
"Okay." My stomach was so empty that I must have been hungry.
Chun Tao turned out of the screen and took several plates of snacks from the bookcase.
"Miss, it's all what you like to eat, look, osmanthus cake, and this pastry, red date cake, eat it. I'll pour water again. ”
"Chun Tao, does grandma know I'm sick?"
"I know, grandma came early in the morning when she heard it." Chun Tao talked to me while pouring water.
"Well, don't be busy, sit down and we'll talk about last night."
Chun Tao didn't hold the cup steady for a while, crackling and shattering to the ground, and then she panicked and wanted to pick it up.
"Spring Peach! You put it down, let the others clean it up later, you come here. I called out to Chun Tao and told her not to move, only to see her trembling withdraw her hand, slowly get up and move to my side, straight and straight next to my bed.
"Miss, I'm really scared......" Chun Tao's hand twisted uneasily in front of her lower abdomen.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay, I'm here, you say, what did my mother do last night?" I sat up straight again.
"Last night I saw Madame talking to a man, and she said to the man...... Say, say help her kill the woman outside the master...... Then I accidentally stepped on a dead branch of a tree on the ground, and when they heard it, I ran back as quickly as I could. The more Chun Tao spoke, the quieter her voice became, but I still understood.
Mother was looking for someone to do it, but it happened that Chun Tao listened to it, and Chun Tao was afraid that she would also be killed, no wonder she was afraid of being like that.
But is the mother really so ruthless? My hand in the quilt clenched hard, my nails were deeply embedded in the palm of my hand, the man who yesterday probably already knew about us, and my heart shivered at the thought of the figure at the door last night. Whether he'll do the same to us, I don't dare to think about it.
"Chun Tao, only the two of us know about yesterday's incident, don't tell anyone, no one can, you know?" I tried my best to calm my voice and try not to speak out of the ordinary.
"Mm-hmm, miss, I see."
"Alright, you've been busy for so long, let's sit down and eat some together." I closed my eyes and gathered my emotions.
"Okay." After eating with a heavy heart, I decided to take a look at the situation, and then told Chun Tao to help me prepare my clothes and prepare to go out.
Chun Tao was worried that my body would not be able to bear it, so she specially prepared thick clothes for me, and after I put them on, I took Chun Tao to Murong's residence first.
"Hello eldest lady, my second lady is not feeling well, and I don't want to see anyone for the time being." When he arrived at the door, he was stopped by Xia Mei.
"Okay, then if your young lady can see someone, remember to inform me, I'll come to visit."
"Whoa."
There must be a ghost here, and although the voice inside is not very loud, I can hear it clearly, and my mother is inside! But as soon as I spoke, they became quieter.
"Chun Tao, let's go visit my mother." I turned around and said to Chun Tao with a smile, my eyes secretly looked at Xia Mei's face, and sure enough, she heard that I was going to my mother's place, and hurriedly went into the room.
"Chun Tao, let's go slowly, give my mother some time, and let her go back." I whispered to Chun Tao.
"Good. Miss, shall I take you to see where they spoke last night? ”
I originally had this intention, since Chun Tao mentioned it, then I will go with her to see it now, nod in agreement with her proposal, and then pretend to walk around casually, and take a walk to the place that Chun Tao said.
After walking for a while, we made a detour, and when we arrived at the place, Chun Tao pulled my sleeve at the bottom: "Miss, this is it."
