The night was dark, and a few residual lamps on the street flickered lightly, casting a gloomy shadow on the wet bluestone.

A figure lightly jumped over several rooftops, eventually stopping above the gates of a mansion.

At this time, the door of the mansion was wide open, and the sound of footsteps and laughter in the conversation between the guests and the hosts slowly approached the figure on the door.

Shang Shuyoucheng's carriage was already waiting outside the mansion. The horses noticed something strange and snorted lowly, but the man was sluggish, and the groom simply pulled the bridles hard.

The guest of honor walked to the front of the house, and two large lanterns illuminated the open place, and Shang Shu Youcheng turned around and saluted by the light.

At the same time, the black shadow in the high place descended silently like a night bat.

The master looked at Shang Shu Youcheng and said to himself: "You don't have to send it anymore, ...... tonight"

Halfway through the words, the master's eyes suddenly darkened, and he subconsciously leaned back to try to break free, but found that he couldn't break free at all, so he panicked and said, "Right Cheng? ”

He let out his mouth, masking the subtle "click" in the night.

Immediately after that, the black shadow in front of him left, and the owner looked at it fixedly, and was immediately frightened.

A short knife came down from top to bottom, straight into the neck of the right man, and the blood spurted at the feet of the master. Right Cheng fell to the ground with his eyes wide open, and he was out of breath.

With just two words, a living person died in front of the owner of the mansion. The Assassins came and went silently, like ghosts, and their movements were so small that they didn't even alarm the horses!

"Come on......" The master came back to his senses, he opened his mouth in panic to shout, but suddenly stopped. For in the tweed curtain of the carriage opposite, suddenly someone reached out and lifted the curtain by a corner.

Under the interweaving of the moonlight and the lights, the finger knuckles were slender and the skin was cold and white, and the owner looked in astonishment, only to see a small half of a vague face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling behind the curtain.

And the groom who was driving didn't seem to care that his master was dying in front of him, and still didn't squint, pulling the horse steadily, without even looking at him more.

The master understood in an instant.

I don't know when...... It's just a cup of tea, and the carriage outside the mansion has changed hands, even if there are no assassins, it is someone else's car that you are in tonight!

So he stammered and stuck the words in his throat.

The man behind the curtain smiled and withdrew his hand.

The carriage drove smoothly, and the master only then weakened his legs and shouted weakly: "Someone is coming, ......

"Come on!"

In the middle of the night, there was a sudden rush of knocking on the door and shouting from the side room of the Chen Mansion.

The woman outside the door shouted, "Kiryu, are you awake?" ”

There was silence, and everyone only heard the chirping of autumn insects. At such a late hour, the woman who knocked on the door was still dressed in gold and silver, which showed that she had woken up in the middle of the night and dressed up purposely. Behind her, in addition to the little maid and maidservant girl with lanterns, there was also a young and beautiful woman, who was also painted with fat and white, and almost made people forget that it was a silent night.

Seeing that there was no response from inside the door, the woman said angrily to the subordinates on the side: "Didn't you let you call her early in the morning, why didn't you come out now and died inside?" ”

This morning, about a quarter of an hour ago.

A quarter of an hour ago, Yang and the Hou Mansion suddenly sent someone to visit and asked to take the fifth lady of the Chen family into the mansion by name.

Who is Yang Hehou, that is the son of the eldest princess, the nephew of the current empress, the power is unspeakable, it is said that he is still handsome and very handsome, how many nobles of the Kyoto family want to marry him. The Chen family may not even be able to send a sticker in the past, but what kind of luck did they hit today, and they were able to get the love of Yang and Hou?

As soon as the old man of the Chen family heard that Yang and the Hou Mansion were coming, he ran out in a panic to greet him, and then when he heard the name of the fifth lady, the whole person was stunned.

Master Chen has a lot of wives and concubines, and his children are born in rows, especially in this old-fashioned family, a young lady whose mother's family is not prominent and strong, and who is a concubine, is really not ranked in Mr. Chen's heart.

At this time, Mrs. Chen, who dressed herself properly and rushed out, laughed with her, and whispered to her master: "That little stammer, Kiryu." ”

Only then did Master Chen remember that he had indeed forgotten about this cheap daughter. Chen Tongsheng has no mother at all, so firstly, no one helps her blow the wind on the pillow, and secondly, she has a gentle temper and stutters when she speaks. It's really unflattering.

When I was a child, adults saw that the Yuxue she gave birth to was cute, and allowed her to settle down in the morning and dusk. Later, Chen Tongsheng was old, and his words were still not good, and the Chen family's wife and concubine gave birth to several cute and sticky little daughters, Chen Tongsheng's life was not as good as day by day, and his residence was moving more and more partially, and gradually, even his father forgot about this young lady.

At the beginning of Mrs. Chen's arrival in the Hou Mansion, she was afraid that Chen Tongsheng, who had no mother's upbringing, would lose her manners in front of the Hou Mansion, so she asked someone to call someone early, and thought about teaching a few words first.

Who knew that Master Chen and the envoy had a lot of words, and even Mrs. Chen's own daughter heard the news, but Chen Tongsheng was still shrunk in the side room, and he shouldn't say a word.

Mrs. Chen got angry and said, "Chen Tongsheng! The people of Yang and Hou Mansion are waiting for you outside, don't let others see jokes, saying that a daughter of our Chen family is so arrogant and does not know how to be polite, and her mother can't move! ”

Chen Die pouted and whispered: "I don't know what kind of incense she burned, and she was able to enter the Yang and Hou Mansion." Last Lantern Festival, I pinched the time to squeeze on the bridge all night, and I didn't look at Hou Ye......"

"Butterfly, watch out for what you say." Mrs. Chen turned around and said, "Knock her door open for me!" She's dead! ”

The two men immediately stepped forward and banged on the door. Chen Tongsheng did not live in a good wing, the first two years of the main wing room was renovated, when Chen Tongsheng came here, Mrs. Chen said that the money was not enough, and the work was stopped.

As a result, Chen Tongsheng's doors and windows were old, and the old wooden shafts made a strange creaking sound on the impact.

Chen Die said: "I'm afraid I didn't sneak out in the middle of the night to fool around, I wasn't there at all." It was so loud that she couldn't hear it. ”

Mrs. Chen's face sank, and the deep boudoir woman went out in the middle of the night, which was the face of the entire Chen family, and she shouted: "Bang hard, haven't you eaten!" ”

The door was heavy, and there were a few strange noises, and with a click, the rusty copper inside fell to the ground, and the door slammed open.

Chen Die grabbed it in a few steps and said, "I don't think she ...... Chen Tongsheng, why don't you talk in the house? ”

When they rushed into the door, Chen Tongsheng was only wearing plain clothes, and he was slowly putting on his shoes, and he didn't look up, and when he heard the words, he sped up the movements of his hands.

Mrs. Chen is a big-tempered person, and when she saw this, she walked up and slapped Chen Tongsheng on the back, and scolded: "Cheap hooves give me gas at this time!" Not yet! ”

Chen Tongsheng bowed his head, quickly wiped the blood on his face with the back of his hand, and said slowly: "Oh......" When she got up, she pulled the futon and covered the night clothes on the bed tightly, and then began to wear her outer clothes.

After Chen Tongsheng finished cleaning up, when he arrived in the lobby, the tea in the hands of the people from the Hou Mansion was almost finished. Seeing her come over loosely with her breast, she stood up and teased: "Miss Chen, you sleep deeply." ”

Chen Die was still looking at Hou Ye's personal guard, and said in his heart that a guard can also have such a self-esteem, which shows what kind of character Hou Ye is. She was in a hurry, and suddenly heard the guard's name like this, and her face suddenly became displeased.

What kind of person is she, Chen Tongsheng, who quietly hooked up with the Hou Mansion!
