Black-bellied Xianggong: Cute wife is not easy to mess with

Chapter 145 The Savior ([-])

Soon, the lanterns under the eaves were all lit up, and finally the situation in the courtyard could be clearly seen. Mu Qingwan let out a breath, supported Jinyu's hand, and walked towards the courtyard.The doors of the east corner courtyard, the west corner courtyard, and the west wing are all closed, and even Tian Sanniang is silent. Presumably, everyone avoids assassins at home, and who would go up Come on.

A little servant girl ran out from the east corner courtyard, saw Mu Qingwan, breathed a sigh of relief, and said happily: "My wife is worried about the third girl and wants to come out to see it in person, but the master insists on letting her go to accompany Aunt Gu, so I have to let her go." Come out and see."

"I'm fine, please let my mother rest assured." Mu Qingwan nodded, expressing her understanding, "Aunt Gu is a distinguished guest, so naturally she has to guarantee her safety, and there are two young ladies, please ask the fourth girl to accompany you, don't be intimidated caught them."

The little maid said: "Miss Eleven is in Aunt Gu's room, it doesn't matter."

Didn't Wei Zhen come from the first line, and he actually lives with Aunt Gu?Their relationship is really good enough.Mu Qingwan was surprised for a moment, and said: "Then let Fourth Miss go and accompany Seventh Miss."

The little servant girl agreed, and ran towards the west corner courtyard, and after a while, she saw Mu Qinglian coming out with Xinghong, heading towards the east room in the east chamber.

Mu Qingwan stood at the door of the main room, looking towards the east chamber. After a while, Mu Changguang came out of her room first, looked around, found her, and immediately waved to her.Mu Qingwan hurried over and asked nervously, "Did the assassin catch it?"

Mu Changguang looked suspicious: "Is there really an assassin? What does it look like?"

How did you think she was lying at this point?Mu Qingwan felt strange, and asked back: "Could it be that Dad is in my room and didn't see those two assassins?"

"Where did the assassin come from, come and see for yourself!" Mu Changguang frowned, probably if Mu Qingwan was not usually calm, he would suspect that she was playing a prank.

Mu Qingwan was full of doubts, and after Mu Changguang entered the room, she was also stunned—everything in the room was as usual, except for Wang Guanshi and a few guards, where did the assassin come from?Even the person who had saved her just now was nowhere to be seen.

How is this going? !She had been staring at the East Wing just now, but she didn't see anyone coming out of the room!Could it be that those three people disappeared out of thin air?Mu Qingwan thought about it carefully, looked at the window, and then suddenly raised her head to look at the roof, but the window was closed tightly, and there was no hole in the roof, no matter where there was nothing unusual, it was really strange, even that The three left after fighting, so there must be a way out, right?
What exactly is going on? !
Mu Qingwan couldn't figure it out, and felt more and more frightened, she couldn't help but grabbed Mu Changguang's arm, and said, "Father, there really is an assassin, Jinyu also heard the movement, if you don't believe me, you can ask her."

Mu Changguang turned his head to look at Jinyu, Jinyu nodded repeatedly: "I heard something moving inside, and was about to go in to have a look, but saw the third girl running out of the house with a face full of horror, she dragged me and ran away."

Mu Changguang asked Mu Qingwan: "What does the assassin look like? How many people are there?"

Mu Qingwan replied: "There are two people in total. They were about to kill me with a knife, and suddenly another person came out and saved me. Otherwise, I might be dead right now. And the strange thing is that the three of them People were all dressed in black, with their faces covered, so they couldn't see who it was."

Mu Changguang thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of anything about Mu Qingwan that was worthy of being assassinated by the killer. It's true that their family had some money, but they were a small family, and they didn't have any family grievances. How could Mu Qingwan attract assassins from a girl's family?This must be too strange.

Steward Wang was in charge of guarding the house, and he was also helping to think about it. After thinking about it, he suddenly slapped his head: "Those two assassins, I'm afraid they didn't come after the third girl?!"

These words reminded Mu Changguang, and made him almost jump up on the spot: "Mostly, they are here for the nobles!" Those who can get the magistrate of Liang to greet him in person must have a high status. People like them, It's not uncommon to attract assassins.This master Wei is also true, since his status is precious, he should bring more guards out, how can everything be kept simple.

Forget it, it's useless to say these things now, if something happens to someone here, he might not just lose his job.Mu Changguang thought about it, covered in cold sweat, and hurriedly beckoned Wang Guanshi to come closer, and ordered: "Hurry up and send more people, and let all the guards be on duty to protect the entire courtyard, especially the residences of the nobles. If it’s not enough, I’ll go to Bai’s house for secondment.” As he spoke, he raised his leg and walked out the door, “This matter is unusual, I’ll report it to the Liang magistrate right away, and ask him to send more yamen guards to our house.”

Manager Wang also understood that this matter was unusual, so he quickly took the guards out and set up defenses everywhere.

Jinyu slightly opened the window, looked outside, and said with pouted lips: "Miss San, you see, all the guards have gone to the East Corner Courtyard and the East Chamber East Room, which is the place where we were murdered just now. , not a single person."

Mu Qingwan smiled wryly and said: "Although it's a bit chilling, there's nothing we can do about it. If something happens to the nobles in our house, none of us can escape." She didn't regard Mu Changguang as a loving father for a long time, so she fell Not very disappointed either.

Jinyu closed the window again, and the light outside the courtyard came in through the screen window, which was much brighter than before, but Mu Qingwan stood at the door of the room, daring not to enter the door for a long time, although the assassin came and left like a shadow, but just now The cold touch of the blade on her neck told her clearly that this was not a dream, but a real existence, and her life was indeed almost lost.

In addition to being afraid, she wanted to scold people very much. Nima, isn't this the direction of ordinary farming literature?Let me ask ordinary people, how can there be such a thing as an assassin?It's totally illogical, okay?

"Miss San, why don't you come in?" Jinyu asked again and again.

Mu Qingwan thought for a while, walked to the desk, and took out the manuscript, but she still didn't know how to write it—could this kind of Tianwen really have to change direction?Unexpectedly, she just got stuck in the text before going to bed, and now she is in trouble again.

"Miss San, have you rested yet?" Someone called outside the door. It was Wei Min, the seventh lady of the Wei family who lived in the east room. Mu Qingwan was about to answer when she heard a sound from the roof. She subconsciously Turning his head to look, he jumped up in fright, grabbed the hand of Jinyu who was grinding the ink, and ran out - a man fell from the roof, all in black, with a black scarf on his face!

Could it be another killer? ?Mu Qingwan didn't have time to think about it, she just ran out, wanting to escape quickly.

"Don't go...it's me..." The people on the ground called out to her.
