Chapter 54: The Visitation of the Deceased
Fang Jinyi returned to the courtyard, and Fang Zihuai also found it, and now he can finally rest with peace of mind.
After sending off Sheng Sheng and Ziyi, Fang Jinyi turned off the light and went to bed, lay down for a while, and suddenly got up and turned on the lamp.
In the study, Su Muqiu listened to Li Jia's narration, his brows furrowed, did the assassin who suddenly appeared tonight have been planning for a long time, or did he come while he was not in the village?
"Owner, this person is very good at martial arts, but he didn't attack me at first, and he didn't make a move until I called someone later."
Su Muqiu pondered for a moment and asked, "Is there a suspicious object?" ”
Li Jia thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No." This man's martial arts are unique, and the weapons he uses have never been seen before, and I have never heard of anyone using this kind of weapon in the rivers and lakes. ”
"What kind of weapon?"
Li Jia thought about it carefully, and after a moment, he shook his head, "I can't say it." It was a dagger at first, a dagger at first, a dagger at the beginning, and then a dart again, and I doubt I'm mistaken. ”
Su Muqiu's index finger tapped on the tabletop, for a long time, he looked up at Li Jia, and said, "Strengthen your defense, especially near the pharmacy." Also, no matter what goes wrong in the villa in the future, the guards of the forbidden land must not be negligent. ”
"Yes, my subordinates will definitely order it to go down."
The door of the study was slammed, and Ziyi walked in and bowed to Su Muqiu.
"Where was Madame when the Assassin appeared today?"
"In the room."
Su Muqiu frowned and asked, "Is there a problem?" ”
"Madame insisted on going up the mountain to find it because she was worried about Fang Gongzi, and Shengsheng and I gave Madame a tranquilizer, and then we have been guarding the door." Sheng Sheng shook his head, then glanced at Li Jia, and said, "After the assassin appeared, I also went in to take a look, and I didn't find anything abnormal. ”
Su Muqiu held his chin with one hand and tapped the table with the other, and after a long time, he said, "Go down." ”
"Yes."
Ziyi turned around and left with Li Jia, and as soon as he arrived at the door, Su Muqiu's voice came again.
After a pause, Ziyi turned around and walked back, then knelt on the ground.
Su Muqiu looked at her indifferently, and said in a cold tone: "You are abrupt about the tranquilizer." ”
"The slave knows what is wrong."
Ziyi looked down at the ground, in fact, she didn't need Su Muqiu to say it, she knew it in her heart.
Su Muqiu got up and walked in front of her, and was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Keep in mind your identity, what to do and what not to do, you must be clear in your heart." ”
"Yes, the slave must keep it in mind."
"Let's go down."
Fang Jinyi lay down for a long time and didn't feel sleepy, just thinking about getting up to read a book or something, when he heard a sound at the door, and immediately closed his eyes and went to sleep.
The door opened and closed again, and then, Fang Jinyi heard footsteps, very soft, but not like a deliberately light footstep.
"It's late at night, and the lady is still asleep, is she waiting for her husband?"
Pretending to be asleep was recognized, Fang Jinyi simply got up and sat on the bed, Su Muqiu looked at her with a smile on her face, looking like she was in a good mood.
"Thank you for today's Zihuai."
Su Muqiu walked to the screen and took off her coat, then walked to the bed and sat down, and said, "Why does the family still talk about two families, the lady is like this, but it hurts the heart of the husband." ”
Fang Jinyi looked at him helplessly, then lay back on the bed, and turned her back to him.
Seeing Fang Jinyi's childish appearance, Su Muqiu chuckled lightly and said, "I heard Ziyi say about the tranquilizer, and I have already punished her." ”
When Fang Jinyi heard this, he immediately sat up and looked at him and said, "Although Ziyi is also at fault in this matter, it is at most an accomplice, and the mastermind is Shengsheng's girl." ”
"Oh, really?" Su Muqiu asked with a smile.
Fang Jinyi nodded, and said helplessly: "That girl can come up with this ridiculous method." When I was in the General's Mansion before, there was a time when I couldn't sleep all night, and she just put calming medicine in my meals. But she told me afterwards, and I knew she was doing it for my good, but I still scolded her. Later, she didn't dare anymore, but she didn't expect that she would commit it again today and implicate Ziyi. ”
Su Muqiu's eyes looked at her fixedly, and for a long time, she suddenly asked, "Why can't you sleep?" ”
Fang Jinyi was slightly stunned, then smiled and replied, "People always have times of loss, don't they?" ”
"It's late at night, go to sleep." Su Muqiu said softly, then withdrew his gaze, got up and turned off the light and went to the bed.
The two were back to back, neither of them asleep, but they did not speak again.
On the second day, Su Muqiu got up early, saying that he had something to go out for a few days, so he left the villa after breakfast, and only brought a few people with him, except for Lin Lang.
Fang Zihuai's attitude towards Su Muqiu is no longer like yesterday, but it is not much better.
On the contrary, it was Lin Lang, who suddenly became a lot more interested in his son, not only accompanied him to practice swords, but also taught him martial arts in person.
Accompanying Fang Jinyi today is Ziyi, although Shengsheng is also beside her, but as soon as Fang Jinyi sees her, she remembers the tranquilizer yesterday, and can't help but say a few words to her. After one or two times, Fang Jinyi didn't bother to talk about her anymore, so she simply asked her to stay away.
Fang Jinyi has nothing to do all day, occasionally watching Fang Zihuai practice swords, or just going to the pharmacy for a turn.
In the evening, Fang Jinyi was talking to Ziyi and the others in the pavilion in the courtyard, and someone hurriedly walked towards them.
"Madam, there is a son at the gate of the village, who says that he is an old friend of Madame and wants to see Madame."
Fang Jinyi frowned slightly and asked, "Did he say anything else?" ”
"The boy said that he and his wife had not seen each other for a long time, and he was worried about his wife, so he came without sending a message."
Fang Jinyi couldn't guess who it was after thinking about it, after all, there were only a handful of men who knew her, and there were no people among them who could say such things.
"I'll take a look."
When he came to the gate of the village, Fang Jinyi saw the person at a glance, walked over with a quick pace, and was about to salute, but was stopped.
"Jinyi, don't come unharmed."
Fang Jinyi chuckled lightly and said, "Long time no see." ”
Yan Yumo looked at her dotingly, then looked at Sheng Sheng next to him, and asked, "Have you taken good care of your young lady?" ”
"If you go back to your son, Sheng Sheng has been waiting for Miss with all her heart."
Yan Yumo nodded, then looked at Fang Jinyi and said, "I just heard from the people in the villa that Master Su Zhuang went down the mountain, I don't know when he will come back?" ”
"It's going to take two or three days."
"Then if I stay here for a few days, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"When did you talk like that?" Fang Jinyi chuckled, then looked to the side and said, "Prepare a room for your son, so that you can serve your life." ”
"Yes, ma'am."
Fang Jinyi looked at Yan Yumo and said softly, "Let's go in." ”
"Okay."
Ziyi walked next to Sheng Sheng, glanced ahead, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Sheng Sheng, who is this son?" ”
"Yan Gongzi grew up with Miss, and the two have similar temperaments, so they can be regarded as confidants." Sheng Sheng replied in a low voice, then looked around, leaned into her ear and said, "Also, he is the current crown prince." ”
"Prince!"
