Chapter 16: Breaking the Curse
The night is like paint.
The moon doesn't know when it will be obscured by dark clouds.
Pei Shaofen slept on a calm bed and let out a slight snoring sound.
Calmly sat in his chair and stared at her in the dark with wide eyes.
A girl is a girl, she has loved, she has been hurt, and she still sleeps soundly.
Isn't it that when the sun rises tomorrow, she will be back to her original state and stop thinking about that negative person?
Calm and envious, I hope that the sky will soon dawn and the sun will rise soon.
There was a subtle sound of window paper breaking from the window next to the door.
Calmly passed by, and saw a bamboo tube sticking in, and then a puff of green smoke floated out of the bamboo tube.
Calm sighed slightly.
In the end, they still refused to let her go, and they still wanted to plot against her.
She has a special physique, and she is not afraid of any smoke poison at all, so she sniffed a few times, but it was only smoke, so she put her mind at ease, pulled out the scalpel in her sleeve, and held it in her hand.
About half a cup of tea, the door was gently knocked open, and four thin figures crept in, and one of them knocked down the copper spittoon by the door in a panic, making a "tom" sound.
Calmly sighed, retracted the scalpel into his sleeve, and felt the fire sickle on the table to light the candles on the candlestick.
The four men hid their faces and exclaimed, almost running away from the door.
"Since your master wants you to kill people, he didn't mention training your courage first?" Calmly sighed and said regretfully.
"Sisters, Hugh is going to talk to her, come forward together, and kill her." Leng Yue tore off the mask on her face, shouted angrily, raised the dagger in her hand and rushed towards Calm.
Calm was thinking about how to deal with it, but the window at the back of the house was suddenly knocked open, and the two masked men rushed in, the sword light flashed, and the four of them didn't even have time to shout, and they fell to the ground and died.
Calm was about to open his mouth to ask who they were, but they carried the corpse on the ground with lightning speed, and jumped out of the window in the blink of an eye.
The window snapped down, and silence returned.
The ground was as clean as ever, and there was not a trace of a killing.
I have always been calm and calm, and I can't help but set off huge waves in my heart.
Such a killer is simply terrifying.
The neatness of the technique and the speed are astonishing.
I just don't know why I got into trouble with such a killer.
Although she was relieved of the siege today, it may not be a good thing.
At this time, Sima Nan was still rubbing the two brocade handkerchiefs in the copper basin.
Jiang Ming had already asked Feng Bao, Feng Bao explained the situation at night in detail, and Jiang Ming already understood in his heart why Sima Nan acted like this.
He didn't know how to persuade him.
He hadn't loved a woman yet, and he didn't know what it would be like to fall in love with a woman, but Jiang Ming was almost certain that he would never become Sima Nan's stupidity.
Fenghua Xueyue's corpse was placed in front of Sima Nan by the secret guards.
Sima Nan didn't even look at it.
"Okay, you don't have to follow Miss Leng in the future, just do your business." Jiang Mingwu made an advocacy for him.
The Dark Guard didn't move, still standing motionless with his hands down.
Jiang Ming spread his hands helplessly and looked at Sima Nan.
"You're not their master, and of course they won't listen to you." Sima Nan lowered his head and rubbed his handkerchief, and said something slowly.
"I don't know how you trained them to be like this, good people, but like marionettes." Jiang Ming muttered dissatisfiedly:
"Say to them quickly, go and kill that woman, to relieve the hatred in your heart."
Sima Nan waved his hand, the two secret guards nodded, and disappeared without a trace in an instant like a ghost.
"Sima Nan, as long as you want, the women in the world, from eighty-year-old women to eight-year-old children, can do anything, why do you want a woman who wants to put you to death? Is your brain watering? Did you get caught in the door? Could it be that the martial arts practice has gone mad? ”
Jiang Ming jumped to his feet and scolded.
Sima Nan held up the handkerchief that had been rubbed all night in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, the blood stains were finally washed away, and the handkerchief was as white as new, as if it had not been stained at all.
"Look, am I very good, is it very clean?" Sima Nan held up the handkerchief to Jiang Ming and asked him.
Jiang Ming sighed and shook his head: "Don't lie to yourself, no matter how clean it is, it is still old, and the stains that were once stained, even if it is clean, it is still old." There will also be pimples in my heart when I use it. ”
Sima Nan didn't speak, and hung the handkerchief on the shelf.
"Don't be sentimental, you treat them like treasures, but what about her? Clearly trying to threaten you with these two handkerchiefs, make you compromise, and let her friend go.
She doesn't have you in her heart, so why should you? ”
Jiang Ming was not discouraged, he had to pull this donkey back.
"Jiang Ming, we have been brothers for more than ten years, did I tell you that I was afraid of death?" Sima Nan suddenly turned around and asked him.
Jiang Ming shook his head: "When have you ever been afraid of death?" If you are afraid of death, you will not be able to achieve today's status, the reason why the old general chose you as his successor back then, isn't it because you are not afraid of death and have the confidence to move forward bravely? ”
"I'm suddenly scared of death now, I'm afraid I'm going to die and I won't see her again.
I used to live without worries, but now I seem to have a lot more worries, and I no longer have the intention to sit on the eaves and look at the scenery, always thinking, why has she kept a straight face today, and why has she been smiling today? Or what will she do next to let me take care of the aftermath for her?
I'm looking forward to it every day, really, Jiang Ming, I've never looked forward to something happening like this. ”
Sima Nan said seriously.
Jiang Ming covered his ears and walked out.
He didn't want to hear it anymore, he was going to meet this woman who called her calm.
This woman dares to love a monster? How could he be fascinated by his brother like this?
His brother is a contemporary hero, Sima Nan, the general of the inner guard who makes Xiao Erlang cry at night!
Even the queen mother and the emperor are in awe of a person who is in awe, and would let a woman be at the mercy of this virtue?
This woman must have cast a spell on him!
He, Jiang Ming, is going to undo this spell she laid today!
Jiang Mingxiong stepped into the Huanyi Bureau with high spirits.
Father-in-law Shi was familiar with him, and when he saw him come in, he hurriedly greeted him, made a long series, and made a smile: "Lord Zhangyuan, what are you doing today?" Sit down under the shade of the tree, and the old slave pours tea for you to eat? ”
Jiang Ming sat down on the stone bench under the shade of the tree with a grin, furrowed his brows, and said in a displeased voice: "I said Lao Shi, what's wrong with me not being an official enough?" I've been here for a long time, and I haven't seen your steward come, dare to love you Huanyi Bureau and watch people put down dishes? ”
"Look at what you always say, we are just a bunch of slaves, how dare you do that, you always drink iced tea to cool off, I will call the cold steward immediately."
Father-in-law Shi poured him a cup of iced tea, explained with a smile, beckoned a palace maid to come, and asked her to hurry up and call the cold steward to come out.
The palace maid answered.
Jiang Ming had just taken a sip of tea, and a loud sneer sounded outside the palace gate.
Jiang Ming almost choked himself to death with this sip of tea he drank.
The person who made the sneer, he was all too familiar.
The people he is familiar with are not only relatives, brothers and friends, but also enemies.
This enemy is his most troublesome enemy, but at this time, let him meet her, it is really a fool.
"Jiang Zhangyuan, aren't you sick and recuperating at home? Why did you come here for fun? Could it be that she dislikes the Queen Mother, her old man is old, and her symptoms are too miscellaneous, so she is afraid that she will not see it well and mislead your reputation? ”
The person who sneered, like a proud peacock, dragged his beautiful feathers, staggered up to Jiang Ming, and asked indignantly.
"Xia Guan has seen Aunt Guan." Jiang Ming got up and said respectfully.
Aunt Guan sat on the stool he had just sat on, and pretended to sigh: "Call me Aunt Guan?" I don't know who set the rules, I'm obviously a yellow flower girl, but when I was twenty years old, I let my aunt, my aunt's call, like a forty or fifty-year-old woman, it's really enough.
Jiang Ming, you say, am I still young and beautiful? ”
Aunt Guan stretched out her hand to fiddle with the hairpin on her head, scratching her head and talking with a gesture.
"Guan Yong, you are only eighteen this year, and you are as beautiful as a flower, are you so satisfied? I still have something to do, so I can't accompany me and say goodbye. Jiang Ming arched her hand and turned her head to leave.
Guan Yong stopped him and sneered: "Who let you go?" Father-in-law Shi, he has a high ability and a big face, he is a good person, and he is used to being favored, he may forget the rules, you come and tell her, if I don't let him go, will he dare to go? ”
Gonggong Shi glanced at Jiang Ming, sighed in embarrassment, and said cautiously: "Jiang Zhangyuan, Aunt Guan is the aunt in charge of Renshou Palace, although Mama Jiang is more in charge than her, but in terms of position, she is not as high as Aunt Guan."
She, don't be afraid to be higher than you. ”
"She is a harem, I am a former dynasty, how can our level be the same?" Jiang Ming retorted with a stiff neck.
Guan Yong sneered: "Don't think you're very smart, you want to gossip about me, let me forget that it's wrong to see you here, you are the head of an imperial hospital, what are you doing in the Huanyi Bureau?"
Do you want me to call him or guide him to see if he is really sick? ”
"Aunt Guan appeases her anger, Jiang Zhangyuan is really sick." Calmly walked over from there, and said hoarsely, Bian Shili had seen Guan Yong.
Guan Yongxia looked at her with dead eyes, nodded and said, "He is sick, do you have medicine?" Why else did they come to you? ”
"Back to my aunt's words, it is precisely because the slave maid has medicine that Jiang Zhangyuan came to me." Calm down.
Guan Yong choked on her, rolled his eyes, and lowered his head to drink tea.
"Although Jiang Zhangyuan is sick, he is still worried about the illness of the Queen Mother and her old man, and he came to find the slave maid, not for his own illness, but for the old illness of the Queen Mother and her old man." Calm down.
"Count him as having a conscience." When Guan Yong heard this, he smiled and looked at Jiang Ming: You are well-informed, and you have found the palace maid of the Huanyi Bureau when you are looking for a prescription, if the Queen Mother knows, she should be happy.
Her old man has been trapped by an old illness for the past two days, and her heart is irritable, if there is medicine to cure it, it is not impossible to reward you with a four-grade clothes. ”
Jiang Ming was about to speak, but he listened calmly and said:
"Aunt Guan, although the slave maid's prescription is a family heirloom, specializing in the treatment of cough disease, but after all, it is a folk earthwork, although it can cure diseases, but it can also harm the patient's body.
