Chapter 146. Distinguish incense
This night is destined to be unpeaceful.
Although the old lady was reluctant, she still left Bai Xiantong in Yanhe Hall for the time being. At the same time, she also learned about the strange events that happened in Manxiangyuan, but after hearing that Jing Xin took over, she was slightly relieved, but the fear of Bai Xiantong in her heart was a little deeper.
In the end, instead of arranging Bai Xiantong to her previous room, she found another room that was quite suitable for her.
After Uncle Bai sent off his daughter, he went directly back to his residence in the front yard, without remembering that he still had a son waiting for him to appease.
At the same time, Jing Wu stayed awake all night.
She had been looking for her father since she had returned from the eldest lady, but her father had avoided her as if he had known that she would be looking for him. Even when asked Luwu, Luwu just shook his head and said he didn't know, not to mention the beautiful woman who suddenly changed her sex and became extremely quiet, she didn't know anything at all.
In the end, Jing Wu, who stayed awake all night, found that her father had not returned all night!
And what she didn't know was that the green wuwu next door to her had not slept all night, and the only one who slept well was probably the aspiring beauty.
Early in the morning, after Jing Wu greeted Lu Wu, he planned to take the initiative to go to Zhining Courtyard, at that time Lu Wu just nodded, indicating that he knew, but the beauty hesitated, and finally Jing Wu took the initiative to leave her.
…
Looking at the three big words "Zhining Courtyard" that were clearly in sight, Jing Wu was in a very complicated mood.
After a night of waiting, she somewhat understood that the eldest lady's request yesterday was probably known to her father in advance and agreed. It's just that this feeling of being arranged clearly makes her a little resistant and a little guilty.
Soon, Jing Wu outside the gate of the courtyard was greeted in front of the eldest lady by the subordinates of Zhining Courtyard, and the process was so smooth that Jing Wu felt a little unreal.
At that time, the eldest lady was having breakfast alone. This point of white grapefruit will never wake up.
"Jing Wu, have you had breakfast? Would you like to use some with me? ", the eldest lady invited Jing Wu.
Jing Wu realized that he hadn't even eaten breakfast, but just came to Zhining Courtyard after a hurried wash, but in the face of the invitation of the eldest lady, Jing Wu shook his head.
"I came here after breakfast, I came a little early, and I ask the eldest lady to forgive me."
Jing Wu said so, the eldest lady did not insist, and continued to eat breakfast by herself.
It wasn't until another quarter of an hour later, after the eldest lady finished breakfast, "Jing Wu, you can follow me today, it's a pity that Diancui is dead, and you will be tired after a lot of things." ”
Jing Wu's face was full of astonishment, she had seen Dian Cui yesterday, how could this good person suddenly die?
The eldest lady saw Jing Wu's surprise, and she was a little puzzled in her heart, secretly wondering why Jing Xin didn't tell Jing Wu about last night's incident? Could it be that there is another tricky situation in Man Xiangyuan, and Jing Xin has no time to tell him?
But the eldest lady's face did not show the slightest doubt in her heart.
"Jing Wu, from now on, you have to slowly learn not to be surprised, Diancui is a human being, and if you are a human being, you will die, there is nothing surprising about this. Even if...... Even if you feel surprised, don't show it on your face, too many people will stare at your face in the future, I know it's not easy, including myself many times I can't do it, but we can't afford to lose, Jingwu, do you understand? ”
Jing Wu instantly restrained his expression, and blessed the eldest lady again, indicating that he was taught.
"Jing Wu understands, but dare to ask the eldest lady, how did Diancui not exist?" For no reason, she suddenly thought of her father, who had not returned all night, and she didn't know if there would be any connection between the two.
The eldest lady first bowed her head, satisfied with Jingwu's well-behaved feeling at the moment, and then she waved her hand and drove out all the maids and mothers-in-law who were waiting in the house.
After a while, she spoke: "It's not just the emerald, it's also the red sandalwood next to the old lady who died." Doesn't that seem like a coincidence? The two men who had been sent to the garden of Manxiang died. However, not only these two people, except for one Bai Xiantong in Manxiangyuan yesterday, none of the other 19 people were alive, and all of them died. ”
"Nineteen corpses were all neatly arranged, and I didn't seem to have any external injuries, and there were no signs of a fight in the room, everything was as strange as if no one could do it."
"It's just that this incident happened after Bai Xiantong's accident, Jing Wu, do you think there is anything related to this?"
The eldest lady's words were obviously still suspicious of Bai Xiantong.
Jing Wu's heart was already turbulent at the moment, but she remembered what the eldest lady had just said, so she tried very hard to restrain her expression, and she couldn't see any joy or sorrow for a while.
Hearing the eldest lady ask her, she shook her head expressionlessly, "Jing Wu doesn't know, but ...... It is expected that Miss Seven, a weak woman who is powerless, should not have this ability. ”
In fact, she was pretty sure it wasn't Bai Xiantong! After all, she saw Bai Xiantong's past and present life with her own eyes, if she had this ability, Bai Xiantong who came from another time and space would not have died tragically in a deserted courtyard. And that white silk tong's golden finger has already been in her hands, what can she use to kill?
"Really? Maybe I'm thinking too much. Also, there will never be only one of our enemies. ”
The eldest lady's face was flat.
"Okay, none of this matters, how about Manxiangyuan, your father will investigate, I believe he will give everyone a satisfactory answer."
Jing Wu said in his heart, sure enough.
The eldest lady diverted the topic and said: "Jing Wu, you help me identify something first, I'm old, and I'm really a little insensitive to this." ”
…
Jing Wu followed the eldest lady to move, and after a while, he went directly to the eldest lady's room, at this moment, it was still only the two of them, and the eldest lady did not let people serve with him.
Carefully looking around, I have been to Zhining Courtyard so many times since I was a child, this is the first time Jing Wu has entered the eldest lady's room, and it is slightly different from the luxury she imagined, the eldest lady's room is indeed "luxury", but the overall feeling is not "Hua".
At first glance, it may seem very plain and unassuming, but at a glance, you will find that every ornament and curtain in the room is very elegant. The quality of everything is almost the highest in this era.
"Come, Jing Wu, you can help me take a look at this, I'm more sensitive to smells, and I can't smell this too strong smell."
The eldest lady said, and handed a wooden box to Jing Wu in her hand.
Jing Wu subconsciously stretched out his hand to take it, and the oily box was carved with the style of a seal, with the word "stealing incense" on it.
"Stealing incense...... Stealing incense? The one who sells perfumes? She couldn't help but mutter.
