Chapter 8 Stained Half the Sky Red
Probably because of the nervousness, the pain of the physical injury is much weaker now.
From the fight just now, he was now in a mess, and the blue coarse cloth robe he was wearing was also mottled with blood, and the whole house was in a mess.
He took off the clothes he was wearing and put on the black robe and black hat on Li De's body, put the coarse cloth robe on Li De's body, and took off Li De's body to the door, with his head facing inward and his body facing outward, and then slowly walked out of the house.
......
Xu Feng walked through several small mansions in the women's area in the dark before finding the room where Li Ning'er was tonight.
In order to find Li Ning'er, it really took him a lot of brains.
As soon as Xu Feng came out of the room, he was stunned, and thought of a very serious question, there are so many houses in the Li Mansion Women's District, can't everyone go in and take a look......
Later, he sneakily observed several houses that were relatively close, and found that there were obvious people living here for a long time in the small courtyards of these houses, which should be Li Wanjin's partial concubines or the residences of the maids.
And the house where Li Ning'er lived must have been empty before she moved in.
Fortunately, the sky paid off, and then searched for a few surrounding houses, and finally found a place, this yard is almost spotless, the whole yard is only a long broom in the corner, and there is no extra debris.
From the outside, the candlelight in the room was faint, and there was a little maid at the door who was napping with her back against the door.
Xu Feng had seen this little maid, and it was Li Ning'er she came to find during the day.
At this time, it was already certain that the person in the house was Li Ning'er.
Xu Feng was dressed in a bloodstained black robe, a black hat, and a sword tied around his waist, slowly approaching the courtyard in a small flower garden in front of the courtyard.
Fortunately, the little maid who kept vigil in front of the door was sleepy and had no energy, otherwise it would be easy to notice the subtle rustle of footsteps passing by the flowers and plants.
Xu Feng walked not far from the little girl's side, accelerated suddenly when he was approaching, covered her mouth with his left hand, and slapped his right palm to the back of his neck.
She didn't realize that danger was coming, and fainted in her sleepiness.
Xu Feng held the little girl's body that was about to fall down, and gently placed her by the door.
Li Ning'er's door was not locked, after all, there was a night guard maid at the door, and the security measures of the Li Mansion have always been good, and there are not a few people who don't know each other in the Yanzhou realm who dare to come to the Li Mansion to steal incense and steal jade, after all, Li Wanjin's momentum is getting higher and higher, and he has always been sleek, and he has never set up any mortal enemies, which is also a major reason why his business can become bigger and bigger.
Of course, this has added a lot of convenience to Xu Fengping, who has been living in the women's area recently, otherwise it will take some effort if the door is locked, so he gently pushed open the door and walked in gently.
The facilities in the house are simple, at first glance it is the style that Li Ninger likes, in addition to the common measures of tables and chairs in the house, there is also a dressing table, the table is full of all kinds of precious rouge gouache, and there are two pots of Yanzhou peony behind the screen, which is also one of Li Ninger's favorite flowers, and there is still a thin layer of white light yarn in front of the bed.
Probably Li Ning'er thought that she would have to stay here for a few days, so she was so well prepared.
He walked over to the dresser and looked at himself in the bronze mirror, the first time he had taken a good look at the new face.
The facial features are angular, the skin is slightly yellow, under a pair of sword eyebrows is a pair of Danfeng eyes, the bridge of the nose is straight, and the lips are pale and a little chapped because of the injury.
Xu Feng picked up a chair and sat on the edge of Li Ning'er's bed, covering the tulle in front of the bed, revealing Li Ning'er who was sleeping on the bed.
Since entering this room, his heart has calmed down, and this is probably the calmest moment for Xu Feng since he crossed into this world.
Looking at Li Ning'er's delicate facial features, like a person in a painting, even in her sleep, she felt a sense of pity for me.
But Xu Feng can't be interested in her at all now, because this girl who is only seventeen years old has hurt him too hard.
Li Ning'er slept very deeply, but she didn't know that the danger was only a stone's throw away from her now.
Xu Feng stood up, adjusted his hat, pulled out the long sword at his waist, and gently stroked the blade with his fingers.
Hesitated for a moment.
A sword slashed down.
......
About half an hour later, a fire broke out in Li Ning'er's boudoir, and the fire was spreading around.
The firelight shone directly into the sky, casting a layer of red on the black sky.
The female relatives who lived around were all supported by their subordinates and ran to the periphery, and Zhang Meiqing, who lived in Li Wanjin's side room not far from Li Ning'er's house, was even more frightened with tears in her eyes, but with such a big fire, she did not forget to bring out all the valuable things in the house, and a few personal maids ran tremblingly with large bags of things.
The people in the mansion rushed through the streets one after another with buckets to extinguish the fire, and the Li Mansion suddenly became a pot of porridge.
At the same time, there was a dark shadow walking slowly outside the house, because everyone was busy putting out the fire, so no one noticed him, and it was obvious that his steps were not natural, and the fingers that were about to dig into the flesh showed that he was in some pain now.
......
Shangguan Peiyu was looking at a book of internal exercises in the city lord's mansion at this time, which was rumored to be stolen from the Pure Yang Palace by a famous thief in the rivers and lakes, and he recently spent a lot of money on the black market to buy it.
After turning a few pages, he suddenly felt bored and threw it aside, he cultivated the Tao of Rapid Success, and the Pure Yang Palace Gong Law focused on building the foundation, paying attention to gradual progress, he regretted that he spent a thousand taels of silver to buy this good book at that time.
walked to the window and looked at the night outside, and suddenly thought that Li De had not come back at this time, and was dissatisfied, but he didn't think much about it, thinking that he would go to Yanfeng Tower to find his concubine after dealing with Xu Feng.
Suddenly, he saw Han Fei, the commander of the city guards, hurriedly walking towards his father's room, his dark fat face was covered with sweat, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange, because it was already late at night, could it be that something big had happened in the city?
As soon as Han Fei turned around, he happened to see Shangguan Peiyu, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Young Master, can the city lord be in the mansion?"
"Commander Han, what happened to you when you came late at night to make you so anxious?"
Han Fei wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "The Li Mansion is on fire! Now that the fire is out of control, I have come to report to the city lord." ”
Shangguan Peiyu was taken aback: "Li Mansion, which Li Mansion?"
Han Fei's rough voice sounded: "Of course it's Li Wanjin's Li Mansion, otherwise I wouldn't have come to greet the city lord so late." He saw the panicked look on Shangguan Peiyu's face, and couldn't help but think to himself, it seems that the recent rumors in the city that the boiling young master hooked up with Li Wanjin's daughter is true, I didn't expect this kid to practice well, and there is still a set of hooking up with little girls, and he has to ask for advice when he has time...
"You go to the lobby and wait first, and I'll go and report to my father now, and ask him to send wind, rain, thunder and lightning to put out the fire. ”
