Chapter 64: A Thousand Miles to Meet
The eldest sister's words had dissipated the dullness in the room a lot, and she had already slept soundly at this hour; Red Sleeves ordered someone to invite the ink doctor to come over, and at the same time took the eldest sister into his arms and coaxed her to sleep.
But the thunder exploded on the roof one after another, and it was too noisy; It's just something like this, and no one can stop it.
It took a lot of effort for Red Sleeves to make the eldest sister understand that her parents are not omnipotent: the parents in the child's mind are of course very tall, but they can't make the child think that the parents are omnipotent, which is not good for the child.
It's not that Red Sleeves doesn't 'care' about other things, it's just that there is nothing to do now except wait for the ink doctor; Besides, the eldest sister can't sleep, and she has no other way.
Finally, the eldest sister fell asleep, and Red Sleeves left Yingshu and Cha Xiang to watch: they were injured, and Red Sleeves was always worried that they were not good enough; Guarding the eldest sister is just so that they can go to bed earlier - it is necessary to let them go to sleep at night, otherwise they will not go to rest.
Doctor Mo came soaking wet, but instead of changing his clothes, he first checked the assassin's pulse, and then prescribed some "medicine" ointment to Linghe, and told her how to use it before changing her clothes - this is what he admires the most, and he will always remember that he is a doctor who saves lives and helps the wounded.
The Assassin's poison is troublesome, not as easy to solve as the poison in the original Yunxiang: it seems that the heart of the man in black is much more ruthless than the assassin in front of him.
Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge were not worried about the assassin's life, because when the ink doctor went to change his clothes, he said, "His 'sexual' life is fine." "The couple knew that the assassin who saved their family tonight was Aunt Guo's people; Who is the man in black in the other room?
Although the man in black is not yet dead, he is not far from death; Doctor Mo took a look, shook his head and came out: there was no help at all.
Moreover, the silver needle puncture did not make him sober up, and it was impossible to know who the messenger was from his mouth.
Doctor Mo and Linghe both went to sleep, but Shen Miaoge and Red Sleeves were still standing in front of the window: they couldn't sleep. The wind and rain are so strong tonight, but if you want to hide from the eyes and ears of the guards and sneak into your yard from outside the house, it is not impossible: if the kung fu is high, it will naturally be successful.
It's just that the man in black's kung fu is good, but it is impossible to sneak into the house without alarming someone; Moreover, if it was the first time he entered the Shen Mansion, how could he find the courtyard with red sleeves in the wind and rain?
Red Sleeves muttered, "This time, was it done by the people in the house?" Shen Miaoge didn't speak, he looked at the storm outside the window.
When Red Sleeves thought that he might not have heard his words, Shen Miaoge said: "Since I started to be sensible, except for the two assassinations before and after, there has never been a brother or the ladies and aunts in the mansion who have died in the assassination - no one has entered the Shen Mansion to assassinate. And the assassination of the old mansion is different from these two times. ”
Red Sleeves sighed lightly and leaned on Shen Miaoge's body: "The eldest sister is only a little more than a year old, and I am not pregnant; Who in Fuchu can't wait? ”
Shen Miaoge glanced at the wind and rain outside the window again, and closed the window: "Under such wind and rain, assassination is no longer a foolish method, and it is a very good method; Of course, there is still a certain amount of danger. ”
When assassinating, no matter how loud the noise is, it will be drowned in the sound of wind and rain, and will not be heard by other people in the Shen Mansion; And after the assassination, whether it is successful or not, it will not leave any traces for people to trace: with such a strong wind and rain, there will be no trace left at all.
The Lord is very scheming.
In the more than ten years since Shen Miaoge was a child, no one came to assassinate him, because he had been poisoned, and there was more than one: of course, there was no need to assassinate him, which aroused the suspicion and anger of Shen Laohou and others.
Shen Miaoge and Red Sleeves glanced at each other: "It's unlikely to be ......" They both stretched out four fingers. Although Shen Sishao's "milk" and "milk" are rich and have some scheming cities, they do not have such deep calculations.
Besides, this black-clothed assassin was by no means prepared on a temporary basis, otherwise where would he be able to enter the mansion and assassinate him so appropriately when there is a strong storm today.
If it wasn't for Shen Sishao's "milk" and "milk" on the impromptu idea, if he happened to encounter a strong wind and rain when he wanted to pierce the red sleeves, then who would it be in the house?
Shen Miaoge and Red Sleeves thought about the people in the mansion carefully, but they didn't find anything.
In addition to the long room, the Shen Mansion now has two rooms, three rooms, five rooms, six rooms, and seven rooms: and the fifth master Shen was widowed in his early years and never married, and he had no heirs; Six rooms are impossible, and two, three, and seven rooms are not like people with such thoughts.
It wasn't until the sky was about to dawn that the rain was a little lighter: it was a little smaller, and although the thunder was thin, the sound of the wind and rain was still loud.
After the sky is bright, the wind and rain are still there; After Shen Miaoge told his grandfather and father about the assassination, he went back to the room: the wind and rain are so strong today, he doesn't have to go out of the house to be busy.
The man in black is dead, but inside his black garment is the middle coat of a woman! It was determined by the man himself that he was a man who had been faked.
Shen Miaoge and Red Sleeves' eyes flashed: Could it be that this person has been pretending to be a "woman" in the mansion and waiting for an opportunity? Red Sleeves called Lai Wang's daughter-in-law and asked her to take someone to find out who in the mansion had disappeared for no reason last night.
Because of the wind and rain, it was not until lunch time that the "wife" came back and forth: no one was missing, and the servants in every room and courtyard in the house were there, and there was nothing unusual.
After hearing this, Red Sleeves sighed and asked Yingcao to take out some silver and a lot of money to give to Laiwang's daughter-in-law: "Although the weather is not cold, it is always cold on rainy days, so you can take it and exchange it for some wine to eat to drive away the cold." ”
Laiwang's daughter-in-law knew that Red Sleeves was in a bad mood, so she didn't make much excuses, took the silver and retreated with someone.
Shen Miaoge didn't speak, and the couple felt a chill for the first time: someone was originally plotting against their husband and wife, but they were just on guard and just visiting, but they didn't have the slightest fear; They thought they would be able to find those who wanted to harm their husbands and wives.
But last night's assassination had shown them that the man was not only ruthless but also more thoughtful than his wife: the slightest negligence on the part of his husband and wife would have cost him his life.
Nowadays, the people in the house can't wait, just because the eldest sister is older, which means that Red Sleeves is likely to get pregnant again: Red Sleeves is already like this before she is pregnant, if there is joy again......
Shen Miaoge shivered smartly, and couldn't help but hug the red sleeves into his arms: "Let's think about it and rearrange it." ”
Redsleeves nodded slightly: It's not the way to always be beaten passively, and the best way is to think of a counterattack, or to lure that person into revealing himself - as long as you can know who it is, the next thing will be much easier.
After a violent storm, the atmosphere in the Shen Mansion suddenly became much more tense; Each house and courtyard stayed in their own yard when they had nothing to do, and there was a lot less movement between each other.
There weren't many people in the courtyard of Red Sleeves: although each room sent people to send things to frighten Red Sleeves and the eldest sister, no one came to inquire about anything; Only the second lady and the sixth lady do not avoid suspicion, and in addition to the girls of the Shen family, only the Jiang family often comes and goes, which is no different from the original.
The corpse of the man in black had already been sent to the official, and the old marquis Shen selected some people with excellent kung fu from the army to come to the mansion to train the guards: the three assassinations in a row made the old marquis really angry.
After a storm, the sun was shining, and the temperature rose so high for several days that everyone almost forgot about the storm a few days ago.
Early in the morning, there was not a single cloud in the blue sky, and there was not a trace of wind; Soon after waking up in the morning, Yingcao'er had a thin layer of sweat on the tip of her nose: it was too hot this day.
The hot weather is more likely to make people angry, and the courtyards of the Shen Mansion are becoming quieter and quieter; Only in the third room is still a little lively: Shen Sishao's "milk", "milk" and aunts have to fight one or two times every day, and this day can be passed.
When the old marquis Shen came back from the court, he saw two carriages in front of the door, and he didn't have the heart to look at himself and walked towards the mansion; Lai Wang had already greeted him, and he bowed: "Old marquis, someone has come to propose to our eldest girl." ”
Old Marquis Shen was a little surprised: "Propose? "Since the end of the year because of the arrangement of the return of the show girl, and someone came to Mengxi to propose marriage, no one has come.
"Where's the people?" Old Marquis Shen was not happy, if it was something to fill the house or something to come out, it would be impossible for him to see or see it today, so he would drive people out.
"The people of the Feng clan in the south;" Lai Wang has always known the thoughts of Old Marquis Shen best, and immediately added: "The slave has just probed, and it is the head of the Feng family who came." ”
Fung family? Old Marquis Shen put away all his thoughts and straightened up; The Feng family was one of the prominent families of the dynasty, and at the beginning of the founding of the Celestial Empire, he had the merit of following the dragon, so he got a hereditary position of the county king: there was no fief or salary.
But the Feng family has produced four queens: the current queen is from the Feng family; Among the families, the Feng family is not the first, but also the second; It has been prominent for hundreds of years, and its reputation has not fallen because it has never interfered in politics with foreign relatives, and it is extremely loyal to the royal family.
When such a family member comes, how can Old Marquis Shen be lazy? If it weren't for the fact that the Feng family has always been low-key, the Feng character logo on the carriage was too inconspicuous, and the carriage was too popular, and the old Marquis Shen would not have heard Lai Wang say that he knew that it was the Feng family who came.
Old Marquis Shen hurried towards the hall, but he thought in his heart: Even if you give us enough face, if you are not a descendant, don't think about begging the girl of my family.
And there were two people sitting and standing in the hall, and at a glance they knew that they were father and son; The young one was the son who saw Mengxi and said, "It turned out to be her" when Red Sleeves and Mengxi went to the teahouse.
