The silence ended slightly, and Bai Ling'er broke the awkward atmosphere.

"Childe, you take refuge here first, and I have to go over immediately, otherwise others will be suspicious. I'll take a chance to sneak out and see if there's any danger in the secret passage. ”

Bai Ling'er looked at Mu Chen, took out a sachet from his belt in his hand, handed it to Mu Chen, and said.

"This is..."Mu Chen looked at Bai Ling'er suspiciously.

"Childe, this is my private money over the years, and you need some money to carry on when you go out. Bai Ling'er lowered her head and handed the sachet to Mu Chen's hand, and said drippingly.

"No... I don't need to be rich, I slaughtered the third young master of your family and found a lot of silver tickets from him. ”

Mu Chen felt a burst of gratitude and shame in his heart, his nose couldn't help but be sour, he hurriedly excused himself, turned over his hand and took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, and casually divided a stack and stuffed it towards Bai Ling'er.

"I accept your sachet to inherit your love, but you also have to accept my heart, although it is to borrow flowers to offer Buddha ....... ”

Mu Chen slowly put away the sachet and said sincerely.

"Childe... By all means, if you don't say that I am a maid, how can there be so many silver tickets. In addition, all the forces, industries, and money houses in this border city have a deep relationship with the city lord's mansion! If I take these large silver bills, I will be killing myself if I go out to use them or exchange them for silver. ”

Bai Ling'er hurriedly waved his hand and excused himself.

"It's me who is abrupt, it seems that I am really a little white who is not deeply involved in the world, and I have to hone a lot of practice in this river and lake. “

Mu Chen scratched his head in embarrassment and said.

"Ling'er.... , Thank you, plain taste, you only rely on a word from an old grandfather, and the first feeling for me, you risked death to help me, I still have all kinds of suspicions about you, it really makes me landless. ”

Mu Chen was ashamed to take back the stack of silver tickets, handed the sachet back to Bai Ling'er and said.

"Childe... You keep the sachet and keep it for a thought, and I'll keep the silver taels. ”

Bai Ling'er shook the silver taels in the sachet into her slender hand and said.

"Well, aren't you really going with me?"

Mu Chen took the sachet in Bai Ling'er's hand and asked.

"No, even if Childe doesn't have his mother and younger brother here, I don't want to be a burden to Childe in the future, and now that the third young master is dead, I am just an ordinary maid. “

Bai Ling'er put the broken silver into her belt, then picked up a package and said.

"By the way, I've got to get over, it's been a long time. ”

"Okay, you have to be careful, I'm not in a hurry, you have to pay attention to safety. Mu Chen said with concern.

"Well..."

In other words... Bai Ling'er walked to the door, gently opened the door through a crack, looked out through the gap, turned around and said softly.

"Childe, you find a safe place to hide first, I'll go first!"

Mu Chen nodded, there was no interface, and he watched Bai Ling'er quietly walk out of the door, and then gently closed the door.

Bai Ling'er sorted out her mood and strode towards the direction of the mourning hall.

......

"Why has it been so long...?" a cold voice sounded in Bai Ling'er's ears.

Bai Ling'er trotted a few steps, hurriedly ran forward and knelt on her knees, and said timidly.

"Mrs. Qiyu, I have been looking for that jade pendant for a long time to find it, so it has been delayed for a while. ”

"Forget it... Never mind... I'll bypass you this time, go and tie the jade pendant to Kuang'er, and those things Kuang'er likes in front of him, put them in with him, let him take them. ”

The eldest lady held a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, her eyes slowly closed again, and her tone softened and said.

"Madame. ”

"I said, sister, it's dark and cold here, and there are rats and cockroaches, so you should go back and rest early, and let the next person guard the door." ”

At this moment, the gauze hanging on the left side was suddenly lifted open, and a charming and graceful woman walked in, with a gauze skirt setting off the perfect proud curves, and the lotus walked lightly.

"Why are you here, are you here to see the joke?" asked the eldest lady calmly.

"Sister... I am surprised by this, Kuang'er is also my son, and those who are mothers don't come to see the truth of their sons. Mrs. Ann said with a sweep of her sleeves and a flick of her eyelids.

"When my sister said these words, did she feel a little against her heart, and her duplicity was clearly revealed, Ling'er, your mind is more delicate than mine, according to your opinion, what does she mean by this, is it to mock me?"

The eldest lady suddenly stopped and moved her fingers of the Buddha beads, looked at Mrs. An with a deep gaze and asked.

Bai Ling'er was excited, bursts of cold sweat broke out all over her body, looking at Mrs. An at a loss, and the other maids shrank in fright.

"Hmph...!Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, the dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know the hearts of good people. I came to mourn Kuang'er with good intentions, you have the heart of a villain to see the belly of a gentleman. ”

Mrs. Ann swung her sleeves violently and turned to leave.

The eldest lady looked at it, continued to close her eyes and chanted Buddhist scriptures, and when Mrs. An walked away, she saw two lines of tears left in the corners of the eldest lady's eyes, shining in the candlelight.

"Son, Master Guangmu has long said that you must have a section to let you keep a low profile, but why don't you listen to your mother, you have behaved more obediently over the years. ”

.....

"I know that Wu Niang is instigating you, but you are not confused, why can't you see her sinister intentions. “

A light sigh....

"Alas... Son, you can rest in peace, my mother has found a murderer and will kill him, thousands of corpses, thousands of knives, and that little slut, I will also let him go to your burial immediately. ”

The eldest lady clenched her teeth, her whole body trembled slightly and muttered to herself.

"Ling'er..."

"Mrs. here~~~" Ling'er replied quickly.

"Help me back to the room..."The eldest lady opened her eyes and looked at Bai Ling'er and said.

"Yes, ma'am. Bai Ling'er hurriedly stepped forward to help the eldest lady.

After a short time, the eldest lady and Bai Ling'er were about to arrive at the eldest lady's bedroom.

"Ling'er, can I treat you well?" the eldest lady suddenly asked inexplicably.

"Madame treats me like her own daughter, and Ling'er always remembers it. Bai Ling'er hurriedly took a step back, knelt on her legs and bowed her head and said.

"Well... I'll ask you now, are you willing to die for the young master?" The eldest lady sat down at a round table and asked.

Bai Ling'er's heart sank to the abyss, and she sat down on the ground.

"You don't want to?" said the eldest lady who took out a paper bag from her sleeve and threw it in front of Bai Ling'er.

"Slave... The slave is willing. Bai Linger knelt up again and replied helplessly.

"Very good, this is a pack of five poison powder, colorless and tasteless, I want it to appear in the stomach of the fifth lady, no matter what method you use, do you understand what I mean?"

The eldest lady picked up the tea bowl and took a sip gently, and said coldly.

"Of course I'll take care of your mother and brother. ”

The eldest lady took care of herself and picked up the string of Buddhist beads again.

"Madame obeys....... Bai Ling'er replied with a pale face.

"Then go down, and hope that the good news will come to me soon. The eldest lady waved her hand and motioned for Bai Ling'er to retreat.

After exiting the eldest lady's room, Bai Ling'er cleaned up her mood and secretly checked the secret passage, but the secret passage was not guarded.

Bai Ling'er explored it for a short time to make sure that there was no danger, so she came out and rushed to Kuang Wenbo's room.

After a short time, Bai Ling'er returned to the third young master's room, slumped on the stool of the tea table in the room, and lay on the table and cried in a low voice.

"What's wrong... Sister Ling'er. Mu Chen emerged from the darkness, walked up to Bai Ling'er and asked in a low voice.

"No... Not... Nothing, just scolded. Bai Ling'er hurriedly wiped away the tears on her face and replied softly.

"Childe, I have a way, you can leave here tonight, I went to check the secret passage just now and there is no problem, it should be safe."

"But I'm going to grieve you, I'll wait to find a set of lenient women's clothes for you to change into, and put a headscarf on the old lady who pretends to be a handyman's room. ”

"Sister Ling'er, what did you say, now I am embattled, if I am not careful, I will not have a small life, and now I am still wronged, not wronged. Mu Chen smiled and said in a low voice.

"That's... Childe, I'll go and prepare, you better hide. With that, Bai Ling'er got up and prepared to go out.

Mu Chen grabbed Bai Ling'er's clothes.

"Sister Ling'er, you must pay attention to safety, I always feel that you have something to hide from me, if something happens to you for me, I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life. ”

"Don't worry, I said that the secret passage is very safe, as long as we can reach the secret passage safely, we will be fine, okay, I'll go and come back quickly, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”

Bai Linger said with a slight smile....
