Since Sheng Zi'an learned that Sheng Hong'an had suffered due retribution, he slept a lot more comfortably at night.

Who knows, at midnight that day, Sheng Zi'an faintly heard the woman's crying voice, Sheng Zi'an has always slept very lightly, so he felt that he was dreaming, turned over, frowned, and wanted to fall asleep again.

Unexpectedly, after turning over, the crying that came into the house became louder and louder.

His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has something to do today, he is not in the house, Sheng Zi'an is sleeping alone in the main house, at this time there is not a single candle in the house, and there is no light, Sheng Zi'an feels that something is wrong, and in the dark, he opened his eyes.

The crying did not come from inside the house, nor did it come from outside the door, Sheng Zi'an lay motionless on the bed, keeping his original breathing, and listened carefully, the crying sound actually seemed to come from outside the window.

This courtyard was originally the house of the prince alone, and the prince liked to be quiet, so behind this courtyard, was the garden of the prince's house, and there was no one else living outside the window.

Sheng Zi'an doesn't believe in gods, ghosts, or anything, but when she encounters such a thing in the middle of the night, she will inevitably have hair on her back, and she can't help but miss the night when the son is also in the house.

Sheng Zi'an listened for a while, the cry was intermittent, sounding very sad, Sheng Zi'an carefully sat up from the bed.

When Sheng Zi'an was sleeping, she always didn't want others to wait and serve by her side, so even Aoyagi was resting in the side, waiting for Sheng Zi'an to call her if she had something.

Sheng Zi'an didn't dare to make a loud noise, got off the bed, stepped on the ground barefoot, and slowly moved towards the door.

It was too dark in the room, Sheng Zi'an accidentally hit the corner of the table with the position of his waist and hips, and opened his mouth in pain, but he didn't make a sound.

When he arrived at the door, Sheng Zi'an pushed the door open.

The night was still bright tonight, and the moment Sheng Zi'an pushed the door open, he only felt that his eyes were much clearer, and he could see his shadow dragging on the ground.

The maid who kept vigil at the door for the princess was also drowsy at this time, and suddenly heard the sound of the door opening, and turned her head to see that the princess and concubine were standing there with her hair scattered, and she was also startled!

"The princess and concubine! How did you get up! A maid hurriedly came over, helped Sheng Zi'an open the door wider, and helped Sheng Zi'an.

I only feel that the hands of the princess and concubine are cold, which is very different from usual.

"Mother, what's wrong with you! If you have any commandment, call your slaves and maidservants. ”

Someone saw that something was wrong with Sheng Zi'an, so they hurriedly went to the next room and called Qingliu up.

Aoyagi heard that something had happened to his mother-in-law in a daze, and hurriedly ran out of the house, only to see his mother-in-law in the moonlight, her face was pale, and her eyes were not quite right.

"Madame! What's wrong with you, ma'am! Something's wrong! ”

Aoyagi hurriedly came over to help Sheng Zi'an.

Sheng Zi'an was indeed frightened just now, but at this time, he just eased up a little, and said softly: Outside the window, someone is crying, I heard the crying! ”

"What a cry! What are you talking about, ma'am? Are you having a nightmare? Aoyagi didn't understand what Sheng Zi'an said, and wiped the cold sweat from Sheng Zi'an's forehead with a handkerchief.

"There was crying outside the window." Sheng Zi'an said again, and Aoyagi understood this time.

"Madam, don't be afraid, the slave maid will take a look...."Aoyagi frowned, did not light a candle, and walked into Sheng Zi'an's room.

When I first walked in, the room was very quiet, Sheng Zi'an and Qingliu held their breath and listened for a while, then they heard the intermittent cry sounding again, gloomy, cautious in the night, and a few little maids who followed Sheng Zi'an and Qingliu in also changed their faces and lowered their voices: "Niangniang, is the garden haunted!" ”

"What the hell! Don't talk nonsense, scare the mother! Aoyagi scolded, escorted Sheng Zi'an out of the house, and then ordered the little guy outside.

"Quietly go to the back garden and see who is pretending to be a ghost! Bring me someone! ”

"I want to see what it is, dare to pretend to be a ghost in front of Madame's eyes!" A few of the servants followed the companions, and from the side, they touched the courtyard behind the house.

Aoyagi took Sheng Zi'an's shoes from the house, squatted on the ground, and served Sheng Zi'an to put them on.

"Madam, go to the house to rest for a while, wait a while and soak your feet again, the ground is cold, don't freeze..."

After sitting in the dark room for a while, I heard the sound of a woman screaming from the garden behind me.

"What are you doing! Let me go! Let me go! Who are you! ”

"Shut up! Pretending to be a ghost outside the mother's house? Get up! ”

The little servant scolded a few times, and Aoyagi heard that the person had been caught, so he lit the oil lamp in the room.

Sheng Zi'an's eyes couldn't adapt to this light for a while, and he squinted his eyes for a while, and heard a voice coming from the door.

"Mother, someone has caught it!"

"Bring it in!"

The little guy outside grabbed such a young woman, and walked in from outside the house, the woman may have been in the garden for a long time, and there were dead branches and leaves in her sleeves and hair, and she looked very embarrassed.

"Niangniang, this is the person who pretends to be a ghost in the garden!"

"I'm not pretending! You guys are talking nonsense! Let me go! The woman struggled and turned her head to Sheng Zi'an: "Niangniang, the slave doesn't know that it is outside your house!" The slave just doesn't want to be uncomfortable inside the house, so that the young lady can see that the slave really didn't mean to cry outside your house! Forgive your sins! ”

Sheng Zi'an heard the name in her mouth, and carefully distinguished, Sheng Zi'an's memory was very good, and she quickly remembered that this was the maid beside He Sirui, called Xiaoshui.

Sheng Zi'an frowned, she hadn't seen He Sirui for a long time, since the last time He Sirui found a way to ask Sheng Zi'an's face, Sheng Zi'an let her live in the side courtyard next to her, and then He Sirui annoyed the people in the courtyard, Sheng Zi'an also heard a little, but He Sirui asked for the matter in front of Xiao Jue, and no one mentioned it to Sheng Zi'an.

Sheng Zi'an thought that she would stop in the yard, but she didn't expect that the maid next to her began to behave like a demon, who was scared like this in the middle of the night, and her heart would not be comfortable, Sheng Zi'an was a little angry, and her expression was not very good-looking at this time.

Xiaoshui raised his head and glanced at Sheng Zi'an, beating a drum in his heart, for fear that the princess and concubine would be in a bad mood, so she punished herself.

"You cry in the garden in the middle of the night, what do you mean?"

Sheng Zi'an asked.

"Hui Niangniang..." Xiao Shui stopped struggling, and choked up again in his voice: "Hui Niangniang, the slave is because of our young lady." ”

"Oh? What's the matter with Miss Ho? Sheng Zixin sensed a sense of disobedience in her heart, but before she could think about it carefully, she cried when she heard a "wow".

"Hui Niangniang, our young lady, may not work!"

"The slave and maid feel uncomfortable in their hearts! But I didn't dare to show it in front of the young lady, so I could only wait for the young lady to sleep in the middle of the night, and hide out and cry secretly, otherwise the young lady saw it, and she would be more hearty again, disturbing the mother, and asking the mother to forgive her sins! The slave really didn't mean it! ”

"No more?" Sheng Zi'an's brows furrowed a little, grasping the point in her words.

"Yes, our young lady is dying, getting depressed day by day, the wound on the young lady's body has not been good, a few days ago, the young lady began to have a fever, and today she talked nonsense for a day, and finally sobered up for a while at night, the young lady herself is not clear in her heart, the slave is very uncomfortable, and she is afraid of arousing the suspicion of the young lady, so she can only hide out...."

"What the hell is going on? The last time I saw Miss Ho, wasn't she okay? ”

"Back to Niangniang, a few days ago, the white god doctor found a medicine primer that can replace Miss, so I feel more and more that Miss is not at the mercy of her, our Miss was originally the daughter of a good family, but because the family was too poor, she was sold, and since then she has been displaced, and the slave maid has been by Miss's side since she was very young, and she has seen how sad Miss has been over the years."

"A few days ago, thanks to your pity, Miss has only been a few days old, but since Doctor Bai found someone who can replace Miss, he wants to kill Miss all day long!"

"Doctor Bai also said that he didn't want to waste the blood in Miss's body, and said that before Miss died, he must release all the blood in her body, anyway, Miss was bought back by him, whether it is life or death, it is all up to him, and he will toss Miss hard!"

"Miss can't resist, she is tortured like this!"

Xiao Shui wiped her tears and said sincerely.

It is true that Bai Cheng found a new medicine man to replace He Sirui, Bai Cheng has his back against Tianquan Tower, and there is no shortage of connections and silver, although it is not easy, he still found it.

Bai Cheng had long been tired of He Sirui's assertions, and his heart was big, and he really didn't leave He Sirui in mind at this time.

He Sirui also knew that if he didn't act again, he would really die in the hands of Bai Cheng!

Only then did he take a risk and let Xiaoshui do what he did today.

Xiaoshui is young and loyal to He Sirui, although he is scared in his heart, he still follows He Sirui's instructions, comes to He Sirui's position that he has already found, cried for half a night, and finally cried out the princess and concubine!

Xiaoshui cried and cried, and he was also very sincere, if He Sirui was really dead, then what should he do, even if Bai Cheng let him go, where would he go?

Xiao Shui had fear in his heart, and the more he talked, the more sad he became.

Sheng Zi'an is very good at analyzing people's emotions, and he can't even see Xiao Shui's flaws at this time, He Sirui naturally didn't tell Xiao Shui about his true purpose, Xiao Shui was also in the dark, and he didn't know that he was being treated as a chess piece.

"! You are the most generous and kind! Please, go see Miss! Please, madam, save Miss's life! ”

Sheng Zi'an looked up at the outside of the house, at this time, the sky was already white, tossing and turning, and the night had passed.

"Let's go and have a look..."Sheng Zi'an commanded lightly.
