Shen Tong is preparing to leave, the Protector Mansion is very large, and this is not the only place to hide, there is no need for her to let herself be in such a dirty place.

She turned to walk away when suddenly she heard a cough coming from the cave, or rather, only half-sound, because the second half of the sound was masked.

Shen Tong immediately held his breath, there was someone in the cave!

Just now she was eating buns behind the rockery, not far from this hole, and there were Taihu Lake stones piled up more than one person high in the middle.

If someone goes into the cave to take a break, they will see her, and she will hear the movement.

But she heard nothing.

So this person should be one step ahead of her, and he was already in the cave when she was eating the buns.

What are you doing in there? Reincarnation of grains? That's time to come out too, unless...... This man, like her, is hiding in this cave!

Shen Tong sighed in his heart, could it be that there was a second person in this mansion who sneaked in?

Is it an assassin?

No, this is a place for people, if it is an assassin, it is a bit far away, and it is not convenient to go out or come back.

She is a dead soldier, and she has done assassination many times, and if it were her, she would not choose this kind of place.

Could it be that this person, like her, is ready to hide for a few days, and find a relatively safe place to hide before finding out the situation in the mansion?

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Shen Tong's mind, she didn't alarm the people inside, and quietly retreated to the place where she had just eaten the buns.

Hiding her figure, she laughed silently.

The person inside can bear it better than her, and he can accommodate the stinky and noisy cave?

She retreated and was ready to change places.

This person is really not dirty, this is better than her.

Suddenly, the smile on Shen Tong's face froze.

Dirty and smelly beggars!

She finally knew why the six beggars were fighting and why they didn't make trouble.

Their purpose is not to make trouble in front of the Protector's Mansion, their purpose is the same as hers.

It's just that she's for herself, and they're for the other person, the one in the cave.

Six beggars fought with another group of beggars, and then angered the people watching from the outside of the house, from beggars fighting to many people fighting, she took advantage of the chaos to get in at that time, and the other person thought to come in at that time.

The more Shen Tong thought about it, the more she felt that it was like this, it must be like this, otherwise she couldn't think of any other possibility.

Who is this person hiding in the cave?

Since she woke up from Tao Shiyi's house, she has met many people along the way.

Tu Wei, Tao Songzhi, Mei Yingxue, Jiang Shuangliu, Xu An, Shrimp Head......

Some of them are face-to-face, some of them she will avoid, some of them want to cooperate with her, and some of them are that they want to cooperate with others.

So, what would happen to the man in the cave?

Shen Tong didn't stay long, she still had to take advantage of the night to familiarize herself with this Guogong Mansion, whether the woman who was brought back by Feiyuwei was her mother or not, she had to see it with her own eyes.

She had paid ten days of rent, and three days had passed, which meant that she had to do what she had to do in seven days, to see the people she wanted to see, and of course, if it was really her mother, she would have to take her out of here.

There are only seven days, and her time is only seven days, and she can't delay, not even one hour a day.

As for the people in the cave, whether they are friends or foes, she doesn't have much time to pay attention to, as long as they don't hinder her, she won't be enemies of them.

But if that person prevents her, don't blame her for being ruthless, that cave is good for hiding corpses.

Shen Tong didn't look for a place to live anymore, she took advantage of the night and began to explore the terrain in the Guogong Mansion.

Tomorrow is the day of Yang Jie's funeral, except for the place where the people live, the other courtyards are brightly lit, and the maids are preparing for tomorrow.

When she walked to a place where there were few people, Shen Tong hid in the shadow of the tree, and when she arrived in a place where there were many people, she walked out in a big way, and sometimes she would be stopped and sent like during the day, but no one was suspicious of her.

She's just an eight- or nine-year-old girl, and it's a big deal to be called unruly, but no one will treat her as an assassin.

She wandered around, was reprimanded twice, and learned to be obedient, and when she saw someone carrying something coming, she would go up and take a hand.

The house was busy, and in the middle of the night there was a big kitchen to deliver supper to the people who worked, and she also drank a bowl of hot porridge by the way.

When passing by the spirit shed, she saw Yang Jincheng and another teenager, the young man was full of filial piety, and he looked two or three years younger than Yang Jincheng, and it should be the fourth son of the Yang family, Yang Jie's eldest son Yang Jinting.

From Xu An, Shen Tong heard a lot about the Yang family.

Yang Min has three children, the eldest son Yang Jincheng and the eldest daughter Yang Lanshu are twin dragon and phoenix fetuses, and the second son, that is, Yang Jintang, the ninth master of the Yang family, is only seven years old this year, and is born of a concubine, Yang Jincheng and Yang Lanshu are not close to this cousin, but have a close relationship with their cousin Yang Jinting.

In his previous life, Yang Jincheng once took risks in order to rescue Yang Jinting, and their brotherly relationship was very good.

Yang Jincheng put incense in front of the coffin and said something to Yang Jinting.

Shen Tong stood far away, and there were small servants wearing filial piety clothes in front of and behind her. Most of these people were drawn from various yards to help, some knew each other, and some didn't know each other at all, so it was not abrupt to have one more than her.

At this time, a woman who looked like a nurse came with a child, and when she saw Yang Jincheng, the nurse hurriedly gave a salute and asked the child to follow suit.

The child seemed to be a little afraid of Yang Jincheng, and hid behind the nurse and refused to come out, Yang Jincheng didn't look at him, and together with Yang Jinting, he saluted in front of the coffin and turned to leave.

The nurse pulled the child and quickly knelt down in front of the coffin, and the child twisted around, looking very reluctant.

Shen Tong whispered to the little guy next to him: "The ninth master is guarding here tonight?" ”

The little guy said angrily: "The fourth master has been guarding the first half of the night, and he has to hurry tomorrow to let the ninth master come over to guard the spirit, this is the face given by the prince, is there anything wrong?" ”

Shen Tong hurriedly laughed: "No, no." ”

Of course not, what does this matter to her, she just wants to ask if this child is Yang Jiuye Yang Jintang.

It seems that Yang Jinting is really as cold as the legend is to this cousin.

If she saves her mother and escapes, it seems that she can't take Yang Jintang as a hostage, and no one will be taken into account by the ninth master, even if she is arrested, the Yang family will not take it seriously.

It's a pity that Yang Jinting will help Ling go south tomorrow, otherwise he would be a good hostage.

By the way, there is another person, which should not be difficult to catch.

Shen Tong thought of Yang Lanshu.

At this moment, Yang Lanshu will not come out casually, she will get married in the spring of next year, and there should already be people in the palace by her side at this time.
