"Bao'er, are you still going shopping?" Chun Niang asked her daughter.

Sakura Po looked at the street lights, and then at the happy maidservants, "Mother, if you are tired, go back first, and I'll take a few of them for a walk."

Chun Niang walked all the way and was really tired, so she nodded: "Then you go home early."

The girl is protected by so many people, and there are guards around, it is difficult for pedestrians on the road to get close to her, and she is not worried that someone will be unfavorable to her daughter.

Moreover, the two sons and Wei Zhan Huzi were walking not far away, and if there was a little abnormality, they could all rush over.

"Okay." Sakura asked four guards to escort A-Niang home, Amber and Pearl had to follow back, Wei Xiuxiu saw that it was not early, and the child was easy to fall asleep, and also accompanied Anren to get into the carriage.

At this time, Sakura Bao wandered around the market with four palace maids, two maidservants, and two guards, and when she came across something interesting, she bought it.

The market is full of brightly dressed young girls and handsome boys, many of whom wear masks, including cute fox or rabbit masks, as well as black and red ghost masks, which look particularly mysterious in the lively street market.

Seeing that the maidservants were all envious, Sakura stopped in front of a ghost noodle stall and bought one for each of them.

She herself put on a golden fox mask and took a picture in front of the stall owner's mirror.

The bronze mirror was clear, almost invisible, and she saw someone wearing a goose-faced beauty mask with red lips and white face, flashing behind the crowd.

Sakura even caught the cold gaze in this person's eyes, as well as a hint of murderous intent.

As soon as she turned around, there was only a handmaiden wearing a ghost mask and a rabbit butterfly mask, and no one else.

And all around is wandering fragrant clothes and gorgeous clothes, or carrying lanterns, or holding sugar gourds to eat.

"County Lord, where are we going?" Wearing a ghost mask with a black and red face, Mei Xiang approached Sakura and whispered.

Sakura looked around and said, "Go back."

She doesn't want to have conflicts with people in the downtown area, and it will not be good to hurt the people and her own family when the time comes.

"Yes."

Mei Xiang turned around and told the sisters to go back.

Although the little girls had regrets, they still hugged the county lord and walked back.

On the way, I happened to meet Wei Zhan and Jiang Jie and Jiang Wu, they were standing in front of a stall of kebabs, one of them was holding a large handful of lamb skewers in his hand, and he was eating energetically.

Wei Zhan saw Yingbao at a glance, and hurriedly ran over and stuffed the mutton skewers in his hand to her, "Here, it's just baked, I'm about to send it to you."

He also brought a basket from the little girl's hand, "Here are all your favorite snacks and pastries, but fried chestnuts should be eaten sparingly, it hurts the spleen and stomach."

Sakura took it and took a look, and saw that there were dragon whisker candy, sesame pine nut candy, chestnut cake, fried chestnuts, fried chicken head rice, sugar gourd and fried milk cake.

Some of these things are still hot and fragrant.

Sakura Bao took it, handed it to Mu Dan to hold, took off the mask and ate the lamb skewers.

Jiang Wu and Jiang Jie also came over and asked, "Sister, why don't you go shopping?"

"It's too late, let's go back early while there's a light now." Not every street is lively on the night of the Lantern Festival, and those in the middle of nowhere, once the lantern hanging under the eaves of the house owner is extinguished, the road is dark and unsafe.

In order not to bother, it is better for her to go back early.

Wei Zhan nodded: "It's really not early, let's go, let's go back together."

So, a group of people walked back with lanterns.

Nothing happened along the way, Sakura kept an eye on her surroundings, and no one followed.

But she didn't think that the sight was just unintentional, because she met the sight, and the man quickly dodged away and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

This is unusual.

In the early hours of the morning, everyone in Jiang's Mansion was asleep, and Sakura heard a few people entering her yard and walked towards her house with light steps.

Then she saw a bamboo pipe piercing the window paper and blowing smoke into her house.

Sakura covered her mouth and nose with a cloth towel and stood behind the window,

Enter the cave in an instant.

After a pause, the window was pried open and someone climbed in.

And they all came to the bed, all masked and dressed in black, and when they lifted the tent, they saw that the bedding was bulging from the bed, as if someone were sleeping in it.

As soon as he lifted the futon, the man in black whispered, "Not good!"

Because inside the futon is a long, soft pillow, and nothing else.

The two were about to withdraw when Sakura suddenly appeared, holding a long knife in his hand, and slashed at them.

"Ahh The man in black screamed and fell.

The other tried to meet the enemy, but before he could swing his sword, he was knocked to the ground.

The two black-clothed men who were guarding outside had already sensed that something was wrong, and when they saw that the situation was not good, they quickly fled.

Sakura climbed out of the window and chased, but only one person was injured, and the other fled from the other direction.

The movement in the courtyard here had already alarmed the servants and guards in the house, Wei Zhan and Jiang Wu came quickly, and saw Mu Dan and Xinghua pouring medicine on Mei Xiang.

In the room, Sakura grabbed a man by the neck, trying to pull the poison out of his mouth.

"What's going on?" Wei Zhan took the man in black from Ying Bao's hand, but he couldn't stop him from dying.

Sakura Po blackened his face and wiped the blood on his hands on the man in black: "They are all dead soldiers, they probably want to kidnap me, and they all have poison hidden in their mouths."

It's really infuriating that I wasted two bottles of Wuding Zhiye liquid and failed to revive them.

Wei Zhan frowned, "Did they hurt you?"

Sakura shook her head, "No." It's a pity that none of them are alive, otherwise they would have to be interrogated properly.

Chunniang also hurried over, and when she saw several dead people in the yard, she was almost stunned. "Bo'er, did they hurt you?"

"No, Auntie, you hurry back, just a few thieves, it's nothing." Sakura asked the maid to send Ah Niang back to the house, and called the servants herself, asking them to wait for dawn to report to the official.

Wei Zhan, Jiang Jie, and Jiang Wu checked the bodies of the men in black, but they couldn't find anything to prove their identity.

"Who is so bold as to dare to commit murder in the capital?" Jiang Wu was afraid for a while.

If it weren't for my sister's martial arts, I'm afraid I would have really fallen into their way.

Wei Zhan twisted his eyebrows: "Could it be that their master has a grudge against Ying Bao?"

Those who can use the dead must be from the big families, and they may also be military generals.

However, even if it is a family, it is impossible to train many dead soldiers, after all, dead soldiers are also human beings, and human beings have seven emotions and six desires, and it is impossible for all of them to be stupid enough to sacrifice their lives to their employers, unless there are enough benefits or coercion.

"What's the grudge? My sister has not offended anyone in the capital, why did they send someone to assassinate her?" Jiang Wu angrily slammed the table: "If I find out which dog offal it is!" I can't spare him!"

Sakura had a guess in her heart.

This matter must have nothing to do with Xiao Chengjun and Chen Tiantian.

"I guess, it's the Xiao family." Ying Bao said, "Tomorrow I will go to the Longevity Marquis Mansion."

Wei Zhan frowned slightly, the housewife of the Xiao Mansion was his cousin, what if she was innocently implicated?

But after thinking about it, if this matter is not clarified earlier, it will be a matter of time before my aunt is implicated, so it is better to go and see for yourself. "Sakura, I'll go with you!"

Jiang Jie shook his head: "No, I went to the Hou Mansion for no reason, just to give people a handle, sister, let's report to the official first, just say that they are sent by the Hou Mansion of Changshou."

Since you have doubts, you have to sit him down, and ambiguity will be detrimental to yourself.
