Shui Qingqing has a habit of racking her brains to find out anything she can't remember.

Therefore, the familiar back of Fang Cai Hu Xin Pavilion, she has been searching in her mind, where has she seen it before?

and those deep eyes that are exactly the same as Mei Zijin.

The same back, the same deep eyes, is that person really Mei Zijin?

However, intuitively, Shui Qingqing knew that the person was not him.

If it weren't for Mei Zijin, who would he be?

Shui Qingqing, who was very worried, couldn't fall asleep for a long time, and Bai Lingwei helped her talk about matchmaking, which made her sleepy, even if she closed her eyes, her mind was strangely awake.

And it was this sobriety that made her sensitive to the fact that someone had entered her yard and was coming towards her house.

Tingsheng Courtyard is located in the southwest corner of the Hou Mansion, which is close to the garden, and there are not many courtyards nearby, which is remote. And Shui Qingqing has not been in the house for a long time, except for going to Baiwei Courtyard to take care of Yun'er, she has little interaction with other people, and no one usually comes to her at all.

What's more, it's late at night - who will come to her house in the middle of the night?!

There was a dense panic in her heart, Shui Qingqing's whole body was cold, and her back was even more tired of cold sweat.

She was about to wake up Xiaoxi when the east window suddenly opened, and the cold wind poured in, blowing the charcoal fire in the charcoal basin into flames.

In the light of the fire, in the silent room, there was an extra long figure.

The blood in her whole body instantly coagulated, Shui Qingqing's eyes widened, and she looked at the tall figure approaching her in horror, so frightened that she even stopped breathing.

However, just at a glance, Shui Qingqing already recognized that the figure that appeared in her room was the person she saw by the Huxin Pavilion before.

Shui Qingqing was so frightened that her whole body trembled, she didn't dare to make a sound, she only dared to push Xiaoxi, hoping to wake her up.

No matter who the person is or what the purpose is, the two of them are better than her alone.

But even so, her small movements were discovered by someone who came.

Footsteps stopped beside her bed, and the man's low, cold voice sounded over her head with the breath of death.

"If you want her to die, you can wake her up."

Hearing this, Shui Qingqing's whole body was stagnant, and she no longer dared to wake up Xiaoxi, gritted her teeth against the fear in her heart and said tremblingly: "You...... Who is it? What are you doing in my house? ”

As she spoke, she smelled a faint smell of blood in her nose. And the snow light reflected outside the window illuminated the cold light of the sharp blade in the man's hand, making her tremble more and more.

"You don't know who I am, but I know who you are."

The man snorted coldly, and the next moment, he suddenly raised his hand and stabbed at Xiao Xi, which frightened Shui Qingqing and said in horror: "What are you going to do to her?" ”

Only two 'poofs' were heard, and the man withdrew his hand and said coldly: "Don't worry, I just ordered her sleeping hole - just help you keep it a secret." ”

After that, he walked straight to the square table opposite, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, as if everything was under his control, calm and composed, as if he had entered a no-man's land.

Shui Qingqing was scared and panicked at the beginning, but now she is completely in a trance, and her heart is scared and chaotic, and she is full of doubts.

On the face, she gritted her teeth and got up from the bed, put on her coat and said calmly: "Your Excellency broke in at night, and what you said was also in the clouds. But I would like to advise Your Excellency that the Hou Mansion is not a place where Your Excellency can break into it casually - it is better for Your Excellency to leave as soon as possible before being discovered! ”

"You are a little girl of an artist, a real ninth-rate, you dare to mix into the Hou Mansion to stir up a mess, how can I be afraid?! Heh, Shui Qingqing, you better take care of yourself first. ”

As soon as these words came out, Shui Qingqing's whole body trembled violently, and her legs were even weaker to stand unsteadily, and she sat on the edge of the bed.

The name Shui Qingqing has not been called for a long time.

And this person in front of him not only knows her true identity, but even knows the identity of her adoptive father!

There was a roar in her head, Shui Qingqing's body trembled, and her heart was flustered.

She stared wide to see the man's face, but in the unlit room, except for the light snow reflected outside the window and the glimmer of sparks flickering in the charcoal basin, she couldn't see the man's face clearly.

The nails dug deep into the flesh of the thighs, and with the sharp tingling sensation to calm down, Shui Qingqing gritted her teeth to suppress the tremor in her voice, and said coldly: "Your Excellency is only afraid that you will recognize the wrong person - I am Sheng Yu, the daughter of the Sheng family, not what you said Shui Qingqing......"

"Yes, that Wang Dingbao, that dumb and stupid idiot in Wangjiazhuang, I don't know if you remember?"

The man's cold voice seemed to come from hell, more like a rolling thunder blasting on Shui Qingqing's head, which made her whole body numb, her brain was blank, and her whole person was stiff.

And the mysterious man's next words made her even more devastated-

"Also, on the night of the Falling Moon Nunnery, I planted seeds and gave birth to children......"

"Say no more!!"

The mysterious man's words completely crushed Shui Qingqing's pretended strength, she roared, and could no longer restrain the huge panic in her heart, like a trapped beast that was injured and struggling, desperately rushed towards the man opposite, and the silver hairpin in her hand stabbed towards the man fiercely!

She's going to kill him, she's going to bury all those unbearable past......

Shui Qingqing's whole body quickly rushed towards the mysterious man, and the silver hairpin in his hand hit his heart directly.

However, no matter how fast she moved, she couldn't move faster than the mysterious man.

Seeing that the sharp hairpin was about to be inserted into the man's heart, her wrist was clamped heavily, her whole body was twisted uncontrollably, and her body fell into the man's arms, and the hairpin turned to her own heart.

"I'm not the only one who knows your secret, you-can you kill it?"

The man's indifferent and piercing voice, with the slightly cool breath exhaled from his mouth, gently brushed Shui Qingqing's ears, making her creepy.

Gritting her teeth and looking sideways, she saw a cold, cold silver mask.

The man's face was completely obscured by the mask, and only a pair of cold eyes stared coldly at her.

"You...... Who the hell is it? ”

Shui Qingqing couldn't wait to tear off the mask on his face immediately to see who he really was, why he knew everything about her so well, and even knew about that night......

However, her hands were firmly controlled, and her whole body was encircled in the man's arms.

The actions between the two are so ambiguous.

However, at this moment, for Shui Qingqing, in addition to panic and helplessness, there is only despair......

The deeply buried memories were cruelly pulled back, and it was as if she had returned to that terrible night, deceived into drinking chondrotens, and lying helplessly in a dark room in panic, waiting for the nightmare to come......

And everything that happened at this moment was so similar to the most desperate night of her life.

The cold breath on the man's body, mixed with the smell of blood, hit Shui Qingqing's collapsed nerves, making her stiff body tremble uncontrollably.

Hearing her ask who she was again, the man's cold eyes flashed coldly, and he sneered coldly: "You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know what you're going to do next." ”

Before Shui Qingqing came back to her senses from the man's words, his words below almost suffocated her breath in an instant!

"I know the purpose of your coming to the Hou Mansion. I also know that the prince of the Hou Mansion is your son - you say, if I tell Mei Zijin, or Bai Lingwei, or the old lady, tell them that you are pretending to be Sheng Yu to marry into the Hou Mansion, and your real purpose is to snatch children from them, what will happen to you-what will happen to your son? ”

The strength of the whole body was instantly drained, and Shui Qingqing had been holding the silver hairpin that she didn't dare to let go, and finally fell to the ground weakly, and her whole body was unstable on her feet, and she collapsed from the man's arms to the ground.

"What is your purpose? You want me...... Do what? ”

The ground was cold, and Shui Qingqing's whole body was as cold as falling into the abyss.

She looked back at the mysterious man and asked the question in her heart in a trembling voice.

Under the cold mask, the man's lips raised the most cruel sneer, and he said coldly: "I want you to be a chess piece in my hand!" ”

Her whole body trembled, Shui Qingqing couldn't believe what she heard, and said tremblingly: "Who are you going to deal with?" ”

"You don't need to know that."

The man's voice was cold and irrefutable, "What you have to do now is to cover me well and let me get out of the house smoothly!" ”

Hearing this, Shui Qingqing was shocked again. Then, she immediately thought of the smell of blood on the man's body, could it be ......

Sure enough, a moment later, there was a noisy footstep at the gate of the courtyard, and Sanshi knocked on the door in a hurry outside: "Miss Biao, the Hou Mansion has broken into the assassin, please open the door and let us search." ”

Hearing the shouting outside, before Shui Qingqing could react, the masked man had already flashed to the side of the bed, and the long sword in his hand was on Xiaoxi's neck.

"If you dare to play tricks, your slave will sleep forever, and you will never see the sun of tomorrow!"

At this moment, Shui Qingqing still has a way out, and the secrets of her in the hands of the masked man alone are enough to restrain her.

Gritted her teeth and got up from the ground, Shui Qingqing put on her coat, picked up the silver hairpin and loosened her hair, opened the door and went out.

Outside the house, the wind and snow were wanton, almost trying to blow Shui Qingqing's thin body out.

She closed the open window on the east side, lit the lantern placed under the porch against the wind, and followed the footprints of the man in black who had left in the snow when he came in to the gate of the courtyard, trampling the footprints he had left behind.

The courtyard door opened, and Sanshi, who was waiting outside the door in a hurry, suddenly saw Shui Qingqing in the bright light, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

He didn't expect that it was Shui Qingqing who opened the door, not the maid Xiaoxi.

But the matter was urgent, Sanshi didn't think too much, and after saying 'sorry', he asked the guards behind him to enter the hospital to search.

Shui Qingqing followed behind Sanshi, so she was scared and worried: "I heard that I entered the assassin, but who did you hurt?" ”

Sanshi's eyes sank, and he said angrily: "Who else can there be." This time the assassins are only afraid that they are the same people as the one on the mountain, taking advantage of the Hou Ye's ......"

Sanshi almost told the assassin to take advantage of the cold poison in Mei Zijin's body to attack again. But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back vividly, and he just said hatefully: "Everyone else has been killed, and only one escaped with serious injuries." Lord Hou has ordered the blockade of all exits of the Hou Mansion, and ordered that this person must be found! ”

After that, Sanshi commanded his guards to search the inner and backyard of the small Tingsheng Courtyard, but found nothing.

Seeing this, Sanshi said 'excuse me' to Shui Qingqing and retreated with the guards.

Seeing that Sanshi was about to leave, Shui Qingqing's heart couldn't help but relax. However, the next moment, looking at the people who slowly stepped in at the gate of the courtyard, the heart that had just been relieved instantly tightened, and the whole person stiffened.

When the door opened, Mei Zijin stepped over with a long body.

Shui Qingqing didn't expect him to come, her heart was tight, her face was pale, and cold sweat broke out on her back again.

Seeing Mei Zijin, Sanshi and the others, who had just walked to the gate of the courtyard, immediately greeted him.

Sanshi looked at his slightly pale face, and said with a worried expression: "Master, why did you come here in person...... It's better to hurry back and let Dr. Lu ......"

"No problem!"

The words of Leng Leng stopped Sanshi, Mei Zijin's deep eyes swept lightly in the Tingsheng courtyard, and when she saw Shui Qingqing standing under the porch with a wind lantern, she froze slightly, and finally her eyes finally fell on the bedroom behind her.

"Have you searched the bedroom?"

Without the three stones, looking at the way they were preparing to retreat, Mei Zijin already knew that they had found nothing in Tingsheng Courtyard.

But his instincts told him that the fleeing Assassin was nearby.

Hearing his inquiry, Shui Qingqing seemed to pour a basin of cold water on her head, and from head to foot, the whole person froze.

Sanshi looked at Shui Qingqing's bedroom with Mei Zijin's eyes, and said with a weak heart: "Miss Biao can come out of the bedroom, presumably there are no assassins in the bedroom, so ......"

In the final analysis, Sanshi is just a subordinate after all, no matter how low Shui Qingqing's position in the Hou Mansion is, she is still half a master, and she is still a girl's family, Sanshi can take someone to her boudoir in the middle of the night to search.

"I haven't searched it, how can you be sure that there is no one we are looking for?"

Interrupting Sanshi again, Mei Zijin raised his eyes to look at Shui Qingqing, who was pale, and his thin lips opened lightly: "Search!" ”

Without hesitation, Sanshi waved his hand, and his guards divided into two ways, all the way around the bedroom, but the other team kicked open the door of the bedroom with Sanshi, and Mei Zijin personally led people into the house to search.

Shui Qingqing was so desperate that she couldn't say a word, she stood stiffly under the porch, and watched in horror as Mei Zijin stepped into her bedroom step by step.

As soon as the assassin is caught, the secrets she has worked so hard to hide will be exposed, and everything will be over......

As if sensing Shui Qingqing's panic and despair, before entering the door, Mei Zijin paused slightly, and her sharp eyes crossed her face without a trace, and her expression was dark and uncertain.

Shui Qingqing was raising her eyes and looking at him nervously for a moment, so Mei Zijin's glance back met her eyes in the air, which made her heart skip a beat.

The indifference and detachment in his expression was exactly the same as when he first saw her in the mourning hall, and he didn't believe her.

Shui Qingqing's heart shook -

It was so difficult in the past, and she stood up strong several times by escaping death. Now that she has finally found her son and gradually gained a foothold in the Hou Mansion, how can she be willing to destroy everything she has worked so hard to plan because of a mysterious assassin who appeared out of thin air?!

When she thought of Yun'er, in an instant, her heart gave birth to great courage and determination, shook off the previous panic and despair, calmly followed Mei Zijin, and entered the house with them.

In the small bedroom, the bed, tables, and chairs are clear at a glance, except for Xiaoxi, who is sleeping quietly on the bed, but there is no second figure.

The west window was half-opened, and the cold wind leaked in, blowing a room with a faint mint fragrance.

Seeing that the assassin had left, Shui Qingqing's heart completely relaxed. She said coldly: "My house is so big, what is there to worry about Master Hou, just search it." ”

Sanshi and the guards searched all corners, but still found nothing.

Mei Zijin stood quietly at the door, her nose sensitively catching a trace of imperceptible blood covered by the scent of mint, her eyes falling on the half-open window in the west, and her expression was cold.

The next moment, his eyes turned to Xiao Xi, who had never woken up on the bed, and opened his lips coldly: "She, has she been sleeping so soundly?" ”

These words were naturally asked by Shui Qingqing.

Shui Qingqing's heart was shocked, and she reacted instantly-

There was such a disturbance in the yard, Xiaoxi didn't wake up, according to Mei Zijin's careful thoughts, he would definitely notice that something was wrong.

In a hurry, Shui Qingqing said in a deep voice: "No, Xiaoxi sleeps lightly on weekdays, but today she will not wake up temporarily because she drank the tranquilizing soup after being frightened." ”

Without waiting for Mei Zijin to speak, Sanshi on the side said strangely: "Scared? What was she scared of? ”

Shui Qingqing knew that they would ask, so she didn't hesitate to tell the strange figure they saw in the Huxin Pavilion, but she still concealed the fact that the man and Mei Zijin had similar backs.

“…… Xiaoxi has always been timid, and believes in ghosts and gods. Therefore, she thought that she had hit a ghost, and she was scared all the time when she came back, and she didn't even dare to sleep outside the room......"

Hearing Shui Qingqing's words, Sanshi looked shocked, but Mei Zijin narrowed his eyes dangerously, looked at Shui Qingqing with a calm face, hooked his lips and sneered: "Are you not afraid?" ”

Shui Qingqing calmly faced his inquiring eyes, and said slowly word by word: "Although the wind and snow blocked his face at that time, and he couldn't see it really, there were his footprints on the ground, which is enough to prove that he is a real person - since he is a human being, what is there to fear!" ”

Mei Zijin looked at her with heavy eyes, and looked at her scalp tingling.

After a long time, he finally withdrew his eyes and led Sanshi and the others to leave......

As soon as the person left, Shui Qingqing's tense nerves relaxed, closed the courtyard door and returned to the house, probed Xiaoxi's even breathing, and finally relaxed in her heart.

Although I don't know why the assassin suddenly left again in the end, she was overjoyed in the end, and she finally passed this level......

Lying down tiredly, Shui Qingqing's brain was dizzy, and countless questions surfaced in her mind-

Who is the mysterious masked man? Why does he know everything about himself?

Sanshi said that he was the assassin who assassinated him on the mountain last time, so he threatened her with her past secrets to be his pawn, and the person he had to deal with was Mei Zijin?!

Thinking of the last assassination in the Tomb Mountain, Shui Qingqing's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration, and she finally remembered when she had seen the back of the masked man before.

On that day, she was pushed down the mountain beam by Mei Zijin, and after escaping back to the city from the mountain alone, she saw a light horse passing in front of her at the city gate.

At that time, looking at the figure on horseback, she also admitted her mistake for a while, mistaking it for Mei Zijin.

And today by the Huxin Pavilion, if she hadn't seen the snow on his shoulders, she would have almost seen him as Mei Zijin.

Because of the backs of the two...... It's so similar......

Not only are the backs similar, but the eyes of the two are also the same.

The more she thought about it, the more confused Shui Qingqing became.

It may not be surprising that she believes that there are people in the world who look alike. But-why did this mysterious man who was similar to Mei Zijin assassinate Mei Zijin again and again?

Intuitively, Shui Qingqing felt that the relationship between the mysterious mask man and Mei Zijin was extraordinary.

Thinking about it, Shui Qingqing couldn't understand the relationship between the two, but what she was more worried about was what this terrible man who had mastered the secret of her life and used it to threaten her as a pawn, what would she do next?

Shui Qingqing, who was full of anxiety, didn't know that Mei Zijin had suspected her again.

After leaving Tingsheng Hospital, Sanshi was worried about Mei Zijin's body again, and wanted to ask Lu Lin, the first doctor in the capital, to enter the mansion to see the poison of cold paralysis for Mei Zijin, but was stopped by Mei Zijin.

He said in a deep voice: "Lu Lin told me a long time ago that he only has a temporary method of restraining the poison, but he does not have a complete detoxification technique...... If you go to him, you will only embarrass him. ”

Hearing this, the three stone gods were gloomy, thinking of Fang Cai's fight, and then said hatefully: "I really didn't expect them to be so rampant, not only did they attack the Hou Ye again and again, but also started to attack the old lady." Jane is so hateful! The subordinates have arranged for someone to guard the World Security Academy, and they will never let the old lady have anything to do. And the witch doctor of the Western Desert will be able to arrive in Beijing in less than half a month, and he will be able to relieve the poison on his body by then......"

Thinking of Shui Qingqing's words, Mei Zijin's heart was cold, and he said coldly: "The dignified Dingguo Hou's Mansion is actually letting the assassins enter and exit freely, as if exploring no one's land, it is simply a shame for the Hou Mansion - and they have assassinated me, but I am afraid that there are more than these two times." ”

Sanshi was stunned, and suddenly came to his senses, and said in disbelief: "Ye is saying that the previous time in the West Desert...... They did it too? ”

His eyes were as dark as the sea, and Mei Zijin gritted his teeth and said coldly: "The poison of cold paralysis comes from the Western Desert, so only the witch doctor of the Western Desert can solve it, so it is not difficult to infer that these killers are from the Western Desert." In this way, when I was assassinated in the Western Desert before, they also did it nine times out of ten - from the Western Desert to the capital, it seems that they are competing with Benhou! ”

"The order went down, the Hou Mansion imposed martial law, and sent people to the city privately to investigate the outsiders who came from the Western Desert. Also, arrange for Jingwei to secretly go out of Beijing to meet the witch doctor. Unsurprisingly, if they had known that we had found a witch doctor to detoxify us, the Assassins would not have allowed the witch doctor to reach the capital. ”

"In addition, let people strictly guard the Shengyuan day and night!"

Sanshi was stunned: "Master is ...... suspicion"

Thinking of what she found in Shui Qingqing's bedroom just now, Mei Zijin's heart was cold, and she was even more inexplicably empty.

"Just now, there was a smell of blood in her bedroom."

"Moreover, her maid is not like falling asleep after drinking tranquilizers, listening to her breath, it is more like falling asleep after being lit to sleep."

"So ......"

In the end, Mei Zijin's heart was cold, thinking about the possibility of his guess, and his mood instantly fell to the bottom.

If this Sheng Yu was really in league with the Assassins, then it might explain why she married into the Hou Mansion wearing linen and filial piety.

Thinking of the ruthless murderous aura on her body when she first saw her in the mourning hall, Mei Zijin's heart became more and more cold, and she believed her guess more and more......

Could it be that this is the real purpose of her entering the mansion?!

And before she was kind to Yun'er and flattered Ling Wei, was it all to confuse his sight?

However, her feelings for Yun'er are so real, he doesn't believe that he will be wrong......

The more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became, the chill in his heart and the poison of cold in his body made his body suffer, and the uncomfortable stiffness between his limbs became more and more obvious......

Early the next morning, all the rooms and courtyards of the Hou Mansion learned of the Hou Mansion's invasion of the assassins last night.

What Shui Qingqing didn't expect was that last night's assassin was not rushing to Mei Zijin, but actually wanted to assassinate the old lady.

Previously, Shui Qingqing had already decided that the person the mask assassin wanted to kill was Mei Zijin, so hearing the news at first glance made her confused.

As everyone came to the World Security Institute early, Shui Qingqing saw Mei Zijin again without surprise.

After the assassination of the World Security House yesterday, Mei Zijin did not return to the main courtyard and stayed by the old lady's side all night.

Mrs. Hou is worthy of being a person who has gone through strong winds and waves, even if the stone steps in the courtyard still have the knife marks and blood stains left by yesterday's fight, she sat on the warm couch with a dignified face, gossiping with the juniors who came to greet her like nothing, and there was no worry at all.

Seeing that the old lady was safe and sound, Shui Qingqing was also relieved.

Although she hated the Hou Mansion for stealing her child, she couldn't hate the old lady.

Because the snow was too thick last night, Bai Lingwei didn't come to the World Security Institute with Yun'er in her arms today. Therefore, without Yun'er's heart, after Shui Qingqing asked the old lady to say goodbye, she silently sat on the small pestle at the end, the farther away from Bai Lingwei the better.

Sitting beside her was Tang Wanqing, the most docile and responsible of the four aunts in the Hou Mansion, Lan Qin and Tang Qianqian, and Mei Zijin and Bai Lingwei were on the left and right of the old lady respectively.

Not long after sitting down, it seemed that she was suffocated by the incense on everyone in the room, and Tang Wanqing kept quietly pressing her temples with her hands.

Seeing Shui Qingqing looking at her, Tang Wanqing's face turned red, and she said with a smile: "To tell the truth, I like the mint fragrance on my cousin's body the most, it is fresh and refreshing." ”

Seeing her uncomfortable look, Shui Qingqing couldn't help but move in her heart, took out the white porcelain box from her body, handed it to Tang Wanqing, and said, "Auntie doesn't dislike it, you can wipe the temples on both sides, it may be a lot more comfortable." ”

Tang Wanqing was overjoyed, carefully took the box, thanked her, unscrewed the lid, and according to what Shui Qingqing said, picked out mint paste and smeared it on both temples.

The moment she handed the white porcelain box to Tang Wanqing, Shui Qingqing's eyes flashed across the faces of everyone in the room silently, leaving everyone's expressions in her mind to ponder.

Since receiving this white porcelain box anonymously, Shui Qingqing has been thinking in her heart who picked up her old rouge in the mourning hall that day, but changed the mint cream inside to a box and returned it to her, but did not return the rouge box related to her identity.

Just now that she heard Tang Wanqing mention mint cream, she suddenly thought that she could take advantage of this time to test it.

However, judging from the look on her face, there was no suspicious person.

Tang Qianqian, Lan Qin and Bai Lingwei were all talking to the old lady, while Mei Zijin lowered her head and drank tea silently, without looking at it.

Shui Qingqing thought dejectedly, if it wasn't for the people in this house, could it be those side relatives of the Mei family who were in the mourning hall at that time?!

As soon as this thought came out, Shui Qingqing had more and more headaches.

There are so many people in the Mei clan, how did she hide her rouge box?

However, just as Shui Qingqing was thinking about it, she didn't know that there was a person whose eyes were staring at her white porcelain box......

Half an hour later, seeing that the old lady was tired, the ladies all said goodbye to the old lady and went back to their own hospitals.

Unlike in the past, Bai Lingwei did not leave this time because Mei Zijin stayed in the Shi'an Academy, but looked like an arrow in her heart and was in a hurry to go back, deliberately in front of the old lady and Mei Zijin, saying that she was not at ease when she left Yun'er in the house, and she had to go back to guard him to feel at ease.

After hearing her words, the old lady looked relieved, and did not keep her anymore, urging her to go back to take care of the child as soon as possible.

Mei Zijin's expression has always been faint, even after listening to Bai Lingwei's words, he is indifferent. But when she heard Shui Qingqing say goodbye to the old lady, her long eyebrows tightened slightly......

And the old lady also made an exception to let the others go, leaving her alone, and withdrawing a room of maids and maids.

In the lively and harmonious room just now, it was clean in an instant, but only the old lady, Mei Zijin and Shui Qingqing were left.

Shui Qingqing probably guessed that the old lady had left her to ask about the assassin she had seen in the Huxin Pavilion last night, but she was still nervous.

Because, whenever there is Mei Zijin, she is always inexplicably flustered.

Especially when his cold eyes fell on her like nothing, it easily disturbed her mind......

Sure enough, after everyone retreated, the old lady's face instantly became solemn, and she opened her mouth to ask, "I heard Zijin say that after you returned from the Shi'an Courtyard yesterday, you saw the assassin in the Huxin Pavilion, did you see him clearly?" ”

Just like answering Mei Zijin last night, Shui Qingqing said: "At that time, the wind and snow were too big, and I couldn't see his appearance clearly from a distance. When I got closer, he suddenly disappeared—I saw that he seemed to be wearing a purple cloak, and he was ...... very large."

Speaking of the back, Shui Qingqing's eyes involuntarily secretly looked at Mei Zijin, who was sitting silently on the side, and the almost identical backs of the two appeared in her mind again.

After listening to her answer, the old lady's face became more and more heavy, and she turned to look at Mei Zijin, and said solemnly: "This person not only dares to openly enter the Hou Mansion to assassinate, but also dares to show himself in the Hou Mansion without scruples, it seems that he is bound to win." ”

After that, she sighed heavily, and said: "Fortunately, his target is our mother, and he did not kill innocents indiscriminately, otherwise, your master and servant would have died at his hands last night." ”

The old lady's seemingly unintentional words made Shui Qingqing's heart skip a beat, and her face turned pale instantly-

Yesterday, in order to cover up Xiaoxi's sleeping hole by the assassins, she had to tell the story of their encounter with the assassins in the Lake Heart Pavilion.

Originally, this could dispel Mei Zijin's suspicions about herself, but she didn't expect that she would take the trouble on herself.

Because, according to common sense, if the assassins are bumped into by them, they will only kill them, how can they spare their lives?!

The words Mei Zijin asked her last night flashed in her mind, "Are you not afraid?" ”

It turned out that he had doubted her from the beginning, and he had never believed her words......

In an instant, Shui Qingqing's whole body was like falling into an ice kiln.

At this moment, Mei Zijin lifted her eyes and looked at her coldly, her eyes were meaningful, making her whole body tremble violently.

Slowly put down the tea bowl in his hand, Mei Zijin's thin lips opened lightly, and said coldly: "You go......"
