After Bai Lan went out, Huaxi wanted to take a nap, but when she lay on the couch and closed her eyes, the sentence that Xun Rou wrote on the table flashed in her mind, and her mind became more and more uncalm, and she couldn't sleep well when she tossed and turned.

Half an hour later, Bai Lan returned. Entering the outer room, Cui Ming is holding the soles of her shoes.

Bai Lan asked in a low voice, "What about the county lord?" ”

Cui Ming pointed inside, "I said I wanted to sleep for a while, I listened to the movement outside, and it didn't seem to be asleep...... If there's something urgent, just go in......"

Bai Lan pondered for a moment, "It's raining today, so let her rest for a while." ”

"Speaking of which, I do remember." Cui Ming stopped what she was doing and asked, "How did she get rained, county lord?" ”

Bai Lan's pale face was slightly pink, and her expression was a little unnatural, "I'm a maid, and I can't criticize the master." If you want to ask about this, you should ask the county lord directly."

Cui Ming couldn't help muttering in her heart, how could Bai Lan, who was usually wooden and straight, show such a shy look? After thinking about it, he seemed to have an understanding, "I know, have you met Ouyang Shi?" ”

Bai Lan didn't speak, and nodded stiffly. Cui Ming suddenly understood, smiled at the moment, and stopped talking.

"Is Bai Lan back?" Suddenly, the voice of Huaxi came from the back room.

Bai Lan hurriedly replied: "It's the slave maid"

"Come in"

Huaxi sat up from the couch, "How?" ”

Bai Lan took the clothes and put them on to Huaxi, "Don't worry, don't worry, put on your clothes first, it's raining by the lake today, don't catch a cold again." ”

Seeing Huaxi put on her clothes, Bai Lancai said: "Miss Xun went to Shuying Hall first, came out in about a moment, and then went to Tinglan Garden, and then went back to her own courtyard." I didn't see anyone else, and I didn't do anything out of the ordinary. ”

Huaxi always felt that something was wrong, and asked Bai Lan twice, but she didn't find anything wrong. After thinking about it, Huaxi called Cui Ming in.

"What is the matter with the county lord looking for slaves?"

Huaxi instructed: "You take that box of balm to the Shuying Pavilion, and say that this balm has a special effect on skin care, and give it to the princess to try." In addition, ask Xun Rou what she said and did on the princess's side. ”

"Yes," Cui Ming promised and went to the Shuying Museum.

"Why don't you go to Miss Mulan and have a look?" Although Bai Lan didn't know what was wrong with Xun Rou, Huaxi must have a reason for being so cautious, and secretly wondered if there was something wrong with her.

"No need, I'm not familiar with her, but it seems abrupt to rush over." Huaxi waved his hand, "It's better that I think too much......"

Cui Ming came back after a short time, "Miss Xun went to ask the princess for calendula sesame oil, and the princess gave her some of it, and after a few words of chat, she took her leave." ”

Huaxi asked again: "She didn't tell the princess to go to Tinglan Courtyard, right?" ”

"No, the maids in the princess's courtyard don't know where she went." Cui Ming was puzzled, "But what happened?" ”

Huaxi shook her head, "No, it's just my secret speculation." All right, go down, all of you. It's been a busy afternoon, so let's prepare a meal. Anyway, I will return to Tiandu tomorrow, and this other people's place is not as good as my own. ”

"Yes, slave and maid will go"

Cui Ming retreated to the outside, and Bai Lan combed her hair with Huaxi.

Huaxi sat in front of the Linghua bronze mirror, her eyes fell on a row of balsam rouge boxes on the dressing table, and carefully recalled what had happened from the beginning of this morning to the present, first Mulan came to ask for the party, and then Xun Rou came to ask for essential oil, and Xun Rou also went to Tinglan Courtyard afterwards, could it be that she sent the calendula essential oil to Mulan? This goes around and around, all around the incense recipe and the essential oil.

Huaxi suddenly regretted giving the essential oil to Yizhen, although it was not her own hands, but after a while, it still came to Xun Rou's hands, and I don't know what is wrong with it? Did Susukino Zongqi and Xun Rou have other ideas?

Huaxi's mind flew elsewhere, and Ren Bailan called a few times, wanting to ask her what kind of hair ornament she wanted to comb, but she didn't hear.

"County Lord, County Lord......"

"If you don't worry, the slave will go to Miss Xunrou to keep an eye on it later."

"No, don't go." Huaxi disagreed, "This villa is more heavily guarded at night, so you better not walk around outside, lest there be other troubles." Besides, although I have secret guards here, those people are all guarding outside, and they can't get close to me. With you by my side, I can be more sure. ”

Bai Lan put down Huaxi's hair and replied, "Yes, the slave obeys"

Huaxi nodded, "Just tie your hair casually, and eat in your own house, you don't have to be so particular." I work hard during the day, and I have to rest early after eating. ”

After finishing dinner, Huaxi stood in the house for a while, then washed up and went to bed.

The rain outside the window was still falling, Huaxi asked people to withdraw the incense, leaned on the side of the bed and read a book for a while, and after a while of sleepiness came up, Huaxi turned over and lay down to sleep.

In the middle of the night, Huaxi was woken up by Bai Lan from her sleep, "What's wrong?" ”

Bai Lan said with a serious expression: "County Lord, there is an accident over there in the Yilin Pavilion. The Dark Guard probe came back and said......"

As soon as he heard the Yilin Pavilion, Huaxi's expression was grim, that was where Xun Rou lived.

"What did you say?"

Bai Lan whispered, "Xun Rou is dead." ”

"What?" Huaxi thought she was hallucinating, "Xun Rou ...... her"

Bai Lan nodded and insisted, "It's true."

"Do you know when? How did he die? ”

"When the guards went, they were found dead in the house. The guards patrolling the courtyard arrived soon, and the secret guards were inconvenient to move, so there was no way to know about the others now. ”

Huaxi's face sank, although she was hostile to Xun Rou, when she heard that she was dead, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, she thought that Xun Rou would secretly play some tricks, but she didn't expect that she would die in a blink of an eye. It came too suddenly......

"County Lord, County Lord, no, something is wrong" Mu Xi knocked on the door from outside the house and came in.

Huaxi got up from the bed and pulled a piece of clothing and draped it over her shoulders, "Panicked, what's wrong?" ”

Mu Xi still had raindrops on his face, and said softly: "Just now, the three kings sent someone to report that Miss Xun who lived in the Yilin Pavilion had died...... And ......"

Mu Xi's voice trembled, obviously frightened, and halfway through his words, he didn't catch his breath and coughed violently twice.

"What else?" Huaxi knew that Xun Rou was dead first, and her emotions were buffered, and she didn't show too much shock, but her doubts were deeper, and her uneasiness was also magnified, "Say slowly." ”

Mu Xi said with a crying voice: "Also, there is also an accident on Yu Henggong's side...... Yu Henggong suddenly went crazy, and later let the attendant faint before he quieted down, but he was unconscious. The princess fainted when she got the letter. ”

"What?" Huaxi's eyes widened, and he was shocked, how could so many things happen in one night, Xun Rou died strangely, why did Yu Heng also come out, who is behind this?
