Man'er kept stroking Tingxue's back, Tingxue eased up after a while, she choked her throat and said: "The slave doesn't know, after the third girl woke up, Liao's mother told the slave to boil water to prepare a hot bath for the third girl, this is the second pot to boil, the slave and the maid came over with a copper kettle, and only then did she walk to the corner, and saw the snake drilling out of the window crack in the bathhouse, and spitting snake letters at the slave and maid, and the slave and maid were afraid...... Later, fortunately, it was Sister Man'er who came and stoned the snake to death. "Listening to Xue is already a little frightened and incoherent, if you know that this bamboo leaf green is highly poisonous, I'm afraid you will be so scared that you can't walk your legs.

"Okay, Tingxue is frightened today, go back and rest first, let others do your work first." Qin Yunuan sent Tingxue back, and let a few grandmothers and maids who rushed to hear the sound also disperse, leaving Tong'er Man'er and Liao's mother alone.

"Oh, third girl, don't get too close." Liao's mother saw Qin Yunuan pick up a wooden stick and went to check the dead snake with great interest, and nervously dragged Qin Yunuan back again and again, and even saw that the half-dead snake body was still writhing from side to side, and her heart was even more furious.

On one side is the bathing room for his own bathing, Qin Yunuan looked up at the one-person-high bath window, usually this window is closed, but this little girl named Tingxue is diligent in her work, every time she bathes herself, it is Tingxue's turn to boil water, Tingxue will open the window of the bath room in advance for ventilation, which will give this bamboo Yeqing a chance to run out, if you let this bamboo Yeqing stay in the bathhouse, she will wait for her to take a bath...... Oh, I really don't know who went to the trouble to give himself such a big gift.

Even if they couldn't ensure that Qin Yunuan would definitely be bitten and frightened, their wish would be fulfilled.

"Oh," Man'er suddenly came back to his senses, "I heard that Xue said that this came out of the bathhouse, I wonder if there will be snakes in this bathhouse?" ”

Tong'er immediately took over without a clue: "I'll go in and take a look." ”

"Come back to me," Liao's mother grabbed Tong'er angrily, "You are a simple girl, a girl's family, you dare to break in if you haven't caught a snake, I'll let Dashi come over to take a look later, he has caught snakes with an old housekeeper for a few years before, and he has skills." ”

"It's okay," Qin Yunuan agreed, "First block the corners of these doors and windows, and be careful when you do it." ”

Just do it, Qin Yunuan didn't want to publicize this matter too much, so only Liao's mother and Tong'er Man'er did it, and after a while, they sealed the bath room tightly with shredded paper and rags, not to mention the snakes inside, even mosquitoes can't fly out.

And the dead bamboo leaf was also burned out by Liao's mother in the brazier, Qin Yunuan looked at the gradually extinguishing flames, but the doubts in her heart swelled endlessly.

She looked at the bamboo leaf green very carefully, it looked like it was stoned to death by Man'er, but at the position of about a finger behind the snake's head, there was an inconspicuous needle eye, although it was small, but it killed with one move, and this needle eye was the real reason for the snake's death.

Qin Yunuan frowned, thinking of the flash of silver light she saw when Cui'e died, and an imperceptible crisp sound behind her, the situation was urgent at that time, she didn't have time to think about it, now that she thinks about it, the sound is like the sound of silver needles touching, recalling the scene at that time, it seems that there is a force behind her, straight to the back of her neck, and it seems to be rushed away by a straight force.

Thinking of this, Qin Yunuan was already soaked in a little cold sweat behind her, according to her speculation, it was not only Cui'e who wanted to start at the beginning, but also wanted to end herself, and the strength of the horizontal knife at that time, as well as the needle on this snake, could not be more obvious to tell her that someone was helping her, and the opponent who could be equal to Dou Qing'e's people was a master in terms of martial arts alone.

Who is it? Will you be helping her? What kind of scheme?

Just when Qin Yunuan was pondering, a black shadow had already passed quickly from the tiled house of the Taiwei Mansion, as fast as a gust of wind, running straight towards a white-walled and tiled, antique house in the west of the capital, and walked towards a courtyard very purposefully, turned over and fell, knelt on one knee, and arched his hand towards the person who was lighting the lamp in the house and reading at night: "Young Master, Leng Wu has already sent someone to protect the safety of Miss Qin San at all times after listening to your orders. ”

After speaking, Leng Wu said everything he saw in the Taiwei Mansion, including how he blocked the fatal needle for Qin Yunuan in the Furong Courtyard, and how he secretly killed the snake in the Fuxi Courtyard, he was very careful about the technique, and the force he used was very large, after the silver needle pierced the heart of the snake, it pierced straight into the ground, and no one would find out.

The room was so quiet that only the friction of the paper when turning the pages of the book was left, and the people behind the case did not seem to be enthusiastic about the news reported by their subordinates, but only tilted their heads slightly and looked carefully at the words on the scroll, as if they were thinking about the meaning between the lines, and seemed to be thinking about other things.

It's really strange, usually reading a book is reading a book, why these days when he picks up the page, all he thinks of is the little woman, her smile as bright as a sunflower, her detached and defensive eyes, the look of gratitude after she was helped.

This feeling is very strange, obviously she stole his heart from him and finally began to beat feverishly, but every time I see her, I always feel that the person who stole things is him.

His gaze rested on the scroll, but his mind kept wandering over every time he got along with her, every time he met.

"General?" Leng Wu knelt on the ground for a long time, but Leng Changxi still didn't move a few days later.

Leng Changxi slowly retracted his gaze: "This matter is better left to you personally." ”

Leng Wu was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand what Leng Changxi meant.

"I mean, you will personally protect that girl, you are the most powerful deputy by my side, and I am most relieved to hand it over to you."

"What about the general?" Leng Wu said bluntly, "Leng Wu has always been close to protecting the general, the last time he surrounded and suppressed the hiding place of the remnants of Eastern Qin, their leader Hei Xuan made an oath when he escaped, saying that he would definitely take the head of the general, and the general is now from his old injuries, and Leng Wu cannot leave the general's side without authorization." ”

Speaking of Hei Xuan, Leng Changxi's face only showed a disdain, Hei Xuan is first-class, scheming is quite deep, if he opens the scene to march and fight, it is a good opponent, but it is a pity that this person has too many bad moves, a while ago Leng Changxi secretly led people to prepare to wipe out the remnants of Dongqin, but only Hei Xuan, a big fish, was missing, at that time, Hei Xuan broke into the nearest village, and even took a baby from a peasant family who was still in swaddling clothes as a hostage, and then reversed himself after exchanging conditions, so he broke out of the encirclement.

Hei Xuan, he is an equal enemy, but he is not worthy of the word "opponent".

"Do you think he can still hurt me?" Leng Changxi's words were a little cold, but with twelve points of confidence.

Leng Wu was stunned for a moment, that's right, the general's martial arts are completely above him, even if he is injured now, with the general's means and scheming, Hei Xuan can't get close to the general within ten steps, his words are simply an axe, but what he doesn't understand is why the general is so concerned about such an inconspicuous concubine in the Taiwei's mansion, and that concubine doesn't seem to appreciate the general's kindness so much.

"My subordinates understand." Leng Wu retreated.

At night, the woody flowers in the courtyard bloomed just right, and the fragrance blended in this quiet moonlight, Leng Changxi paced back to the house along the corridor, the mask on his face reflected a cold and quiet light, he rubbed the corners of his tired eyes through the mask, he couldn't remember how long he had worn this mask, maybe it was the first time he realized that the human heart was sinister, maybe it was when the man in the palace told him how similar he looked to that woman.

Carefully changed the wound dressing, because he was too tired, Leng Changxi only put on a shirt, did not tie it tightly, lay on the bed upside down, looked at the soft cyan curtain on the top of the tent, raised his hand to untie the ribbon of the mask tied behind his hair, and let the mask cover his face but did not take it off, and he didn't know what kind of incense was used in the room today, which made him suddenly sleepy, and after a while, he narrowed his eyes.

With a charming fragrance coming from far and near, a pair of hands as soft as clouds slowly moved from Leng Changxi's coat to the muscular bronze chest, with a slight cool and good smell of grass.

With a hint of joy, the owner of the hand was about to continue to lift Leng Changxi's half-hidden coat, but Leng Changxi suddenly opened his eyes, almost like lightning in an instant, he turned the pair of white and tender hands like lotus roots with his backhand, and even kicked the person with the medicine bottle out of bed.

The beauty on the ground covered her wrists painfully, although it was a April day, the beauty's lilac flower smoke skirt still looked a little thin, before entering the house, she also deliberately pulled the bandeau on her chest down, half revealing the creamy jade breasts and deep furrows. And at this moment, there are only four words to describe her desolation.

"Third Young Master," the beauty said in a cold sweat wistfully, "Ruying is just here to give you medicine." ”

Xie Ruying came to the capital from the countryside of Jianzhou a while ago to look for relatives, and she should be a distant cousin and niece that Princess Ning can't beat, but this Xie Ruying has a well-behaved mouth, and she is also bright and colorful, so that Princess Ning, who has just recovered from a serious illness, has one more person to talk to, so she stays.

Xie Ruying is very good at being a person, although she is not a real lady in the palace, but over time, those maids and servants who have received her favor have begun to call her "Ruying girl" one by one instead of the original "Xie family girl". ”

And Princess Ning left Xie Ruying behind, on the one hand, there was one more person to talk to her, on the other hand, she was also thinking that Leng Changxi was almost a weak crown year, and there was not even a person around him, and he intended to match, although he did not say it explicitly, but his attitude was already clear, Ruying was cheerful and beautiful, although his status was low, he couldn't be a main room, but it was more than enough to be an aunt.

And Xie Ruying also firmly believes that there is never a shortage of women who climb the bed in large families, and the most important thing is to be successful and powerful.
