It seems that Zhou Boyan didn't disturb the servant girl when she went out, but she herself disturbed the servant girl.Feeling confident, Qing Shu made up her mind, "It's nothing serious, I just want to see if the young master of the Winter Garden really fell asleep, and if he got up secretly to be mischievous."

"Miss, wait a moment, servant girl will go and see." Xiaoyu said, dragged Xiaojuan back who was about to go out barefoot, opened the door and went out.

Qingshu followed and stood in the courtyard.Xiao Yu knocked on Xiao Huan's door, asked Xiao Huan to open the gate of Qiu Yuan, and then went out with a lantern.The summer courtyard next door was quiet, without any movement.At this time, Qing Shu felt that Zhou Boyan should not have disturbed anyone when he left.It is estimated that they climbed over the wall again.

Xiao Yu came back immediately, "Miss, there are no lights in the young master's house. The oil lamps in each house were also turned off, only the lantern hanging on the courtyard door was on. The servant didn't want to wake people up, so he didn't call to open the courtyard door."

Qing Shu nodded, turned and entered the room.The water maid for washing has been prepared earlier and placed in the outer room.She began to wash up.

After putting on her shoes, Xiaojuan said that the water for washing her feet was cold, so she brought Qingshu another basin of hot water.

The lights in each room in the Qiuyuan were turned off.Du Huwei appeared dressed in black from head to toe.After he nodded to the Luo guards guarding outside the Qiu and Dong No. [-] courtyards, he quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Now that the security guard came to take over, after the last round of inspection, the guard Luo was going to go back to rest.On the way to leave, he met Hong Wei face to face.The two nodded to each other and quickly passed by.

In the summer courtyard, the oil lamps in the main house were still on.

Gu Shitou led Hong Wei into the door, "My lord, the chief guard has arrived."

Zhou Boyan put down the book in his hand, "Are you ready?"

Hong Wei replied with a serious face, "Master, everything has been arranged."

"Be careful and don't be careless."

"Yes."

Zhou Boyan specifically asked, "Don't keep alive." If you keep him, you can't ask anything.The assassins who came must be well-trained dead soldiers, and they would choose to commit suicide the first time they were caught.Furthermore, if they want to save lives, Hong Wei and the others will take care of it when they make a move. It is difficult to do things if they are tied up, but they give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of.

Hong Wei left.Gu Shitou stood there, hesitant to speak.

Zhou Boyan picked up the book, "What's the matter?"

"Young master, don't you assign tasks to the little one?"

Zhou Boyan didn't speak, just read a book.After a while, he looked at Gu Shitou out of the corner of his eye, but saw Gu Shitou scratching his ears and cheeks in distress.He closed the book in his hand and threw the book on the table, "You guard the mechanism. Be smart, if something slips through the net, you must activate the mechanism of the autumn and winter courtyards in time. If there is a slight difference, It disturbed the sound sleep of the young lady and the young master, I take you as a question."

Gu Shitou immediately grinned stupidly, "Yes." He was very happy, and said one thousand, said ten thousand, the son's most capable and trusted subordinate was Gu Shitou. "My lord, it's getting late, you should rest!"

Zhou Boyan didn't say anything, walked to the bed, closed his clothes and lay down.

Gu Shitou tidied up the table, "Master, can I blow out the oil lamp for you?"

Zhou Boyan closed his eyes, "Yes. Don't forget to guard the mechanism."

"Don't worry, my lord, the little ones must be guarded." Gu Shitou said, blew out the oil lamp, and went to the utility room to guard the mechanism.

There are not organs everywhere in Shuyuan, but there are hidden organs in important places.Zhou Boyan asked Qingshu and his brother to choose a residence from the four courtyards of spring, summer, autumn and winter. The reason is not only that the four courtyards are large and the living environment is good, but also an important reason, that is, institutions to deal with crises were added at the beginning of the construction here.

That night, some people slept peacefully and soundly, some opened their eyes vigilantly until dawn, some pretended to be calm but were restless in their hearts, and some were waiting for something unpredictable.

At dawn, Qing Shu woke up happily, and then had breakfast with Qingyang Qinghao.After dinner, Qingyang and Qinghao ran to play with the little yellow dog.Qing Shu asked Luo's guards to go to the Luo Mansion with the news that they would leave Beijing tomorrow. After that, she called Steward Ding to come over and gave orders to pack up and leave Beijing tomorrow.

While Qingshu was happily preparing for her upcoming departure from Beijing, the guards and others who were on duty in Shu Yuanzhong last night all went to catch up on sleep.What's more worth mentioning is that the servants in Shuyuan, including men and women, and Guanshi Luo, a total of seven people, all disappeared.Among them, one is the woman on duty in the winter courtyard, and the other is the sweeping girl on duty in the autumn courtyard.Qing Shu was only busy with her own affairs and didn't notice these things at all.

In the study, Steward Zhou reported to Zhou Boyan, "My lord, because of the assassin's intrusion last night, I have cleaned up all the eyeliners everywhere."

There was no expression of joy or anger on Zhou Boyan's face, "From now on, the butler will take more care of you. Both the Princess's Mansion and Shu Garden are under your management, and you must not allow people with evil intentions to come in."

Steward Zhou hurriedly said, "Don't worry, my lord, this old slave will pick people with wide eyes, and there will be no second Steward Luo."

In the palace, Aunt Zhen was by the side of the Empress Dowager, anxious like an ant on a hot pot.It's already this hour, whether what happened last night was successful or not, why no one came to send news?
Eunuch Hu told the Queen Mother jokes in a shrill voice.

The empress dowager was happy to hear that, and asked casually, "Mother Zhen, can you tell the jokes that Eunuch Hu made?"

Aunt Zhen didn't react in time, she knelt down in a panic, "This old servant is stupid, he doesn't know how to tell such jokes."

In the autumn courtyard, Xiaoyu and Xiaojuan sorted out the pieces with joy on their faces, and packed them one by one.Xiao Huan was also busy running around, helping the two of them.

Qing Shu was also not idle.She tidied up her jewellery, and also wrapped the jade ornaments that were easy to break and break with small pieces of silk separately, and then placed them in the jewelry box.When she came to Beijing, she only wore a small jewelry box.When she left Beijing, her jewelry boxes changed from one to five.

Of course, one inside is a set of jewelry that is going to be given to Miss Xiaozhi's family, and the other is a set of jewelry that is going to be given to the granddaughter of Chen Zhifu's family.Besides her own one, the other two boxes are bigger.One of them was filled with jewelry that Zhou Boyan gave her, all of which were first-class jewelry in Zhenbao Zhai.The remaining one contained the gifts from the ladies of various prefectures to her.From Luo Xiaorong's grandmother, from Gu Ruixing's mother, from Bu Yuyan's grandmother and mother, and from Vice General Xu's wife.In short, there are hairpins, pearls, emeralds, gold bracelets and jade bracelets, and everything you can give her as a gift.

Qing Shu tidied up her jewelry, and asked Chu Yi and Guan Mu to bring Qing Yang and Qing Hao's valuables over.Qingyang and Qinghao are not little girls, so the gifts they receive will naturally not be hairpins, pearls and emeralds, but basically jade pendants, high-quality pens, inks, papers and inkstones.Qing Shu sorted and put away these things, and put them together with her jewelry box, waiting to be loaded into the carriage tomorrow.
