Chapter 147
This night is destined to be uneven.

Although the old lady was reluctant, she still left Bai Xiantong in Yanhe Hall for the time being.At the same time, she also learned of the strange events that happened in Manxiangyuan, but she was slightly relieved after hearing that Jing Xin took over, but her fear of Bai Xiantong was a little deeper in her heart.

In the end, instead of arranging Bai Xiantong to her previous room, she found another reasonably suitable room for her.

After sending off his daughter, Uncle Bai went straight back to his residence in the front yard, without even remembering that he still had a son waiting to be comforted by him.

At the same time, Jing Wu didn't sleep at all that night.

After returning from the eldest lady, she had been looking for her father, but her father seemed to have known that she would look for him and avoided him.Even when I asked Lu Wu, Lu Wu just shook his head and said he didn't know. Not to mention that she suddenly changed her gender and became an extremely quiet beauty.

Finally, Jing Wu, who stayed up all night, found out that her father hadn't returned all night!

But what she didn't know was that the Luwu next door to her also didn't sleep all night, and probably only the smug beauty could sleep well.

In the early morning, after Jingwu greeted Luwu, he planned to take the initiative to go to Zhiningyuan. At that time, Luwu just nodded to express his understanding, but the beauty looked hesitant. In the end, it was Jingwu who took the initiative to leave her. Got off.

...

Looking at the three big characters "Zhi Ning Yuan" clearly in sight, Jing Wu's mood was extremely complicated.

The whole night of waiting made her somewhat understand that her father had probably known about the Da Furen's request yesterday and agreed to it in advance.It's just that this feeling of being clearly arranged made her a little resistant and a little guilty.

Soon, Jing Wu who was outside the gate of the courtyard was greeted by the servants of Zhining Court in front of the eldest lady. This process was so smooth that Jing Wu felt a little unreal.

At that time, the eldest lady was eating breakfast alone.Bai Xianyou will never wake up at this point.

"Jing Wu, can you have breakfast? Do you want to eat some with me?" The lady invited Jing Wu.

It was only then that Jing Wu realized that he didn't even eat breakfast, he just washed up hastily before coming to Zhining Courtyard, but facing the invitation of the eldest lady, Jing Wu shook his head.

"I didn't come here until after breakfast. It's a bit early. Please forgive me, Da Furen."

As Jing Wu said, the eldest lady did not insist, and continued to eat breakfast on her own.

It wasn't until another half-quarter of an hour later, after the eldest lady had finished her breakfast, that she said, "Jingwu, just follow me today. It's a pity that Diancui is dead. There are a lot of things that will make you tired."

Jing Wu's face was full of astonishment, she had seen Diancui yesterday, how could this good-looking person die suddenly?

Seeing Jing Wu's surprised face, the eldest lady was somewhat puzzled in her heart, wondering why Jing Xin didn't tell Jing Wu what happened last night?Could it be that there was some other difficult situation in Manxiangyuan, Jing Xin didn't have time to tell?
But the lady's face did not show any doubts in her heart.

"Jing Wu, from now on you have to learn not to be surprised by favor or humiliation. Diancui is a human being, and if he is a human being, he will die. There is nothing to be surprised about. Even...even if you feel surprised, you must not show it in the face Your face, too many people will stare at your face in the future, I know it's not easy, including myself often can't do it, but we can't afford to lose, Jing Wu, do you understand?"

Jing Wu stopped his expression for a moment, and blessed the eldest lady again, expressing that he was educated.

"Jing Wu understands, but dare to ask Da Furen, how did Diancui disappear?", for no reason, she suddenly thought of her father who hadn't returned all night, and she didn't know if there was any connection between the two.

The eldest lady nodded first, satisfied with Jing Wu's obedient behavior at the moment, then she waved her hand and drove out all the maids and wives who were waiting in the room.

After a while, she opened her mouth and said: "Not only Diancui, but also the red sandalwood beside the old lady. Do you think it's a coincidence? The two people who were sent to Manxiang Garden died. But, it's not just this Two people, except for one Bai Xiantong in Manxiang Garden yesterday, none of the other 19 people were alive, all of them died."

"The nineteen corpses are all neatly arranged, and I don't seem to have any external injuries, and there is no trace of fighting in the room. Everything is so weird that it seems that inhumans can do it."

"However, this incident happened after Bai Xiantong's accident. Jingwu, do you think there is any connection between them?"

The lady's words were obviously still suspicious of Bai Xiantong.

Jing Wu's heart at the moment was already turbulent, but she kept in mind what the eldest lady said just now, so she worked very hard to restrain her expression, and she couldn't see any joy or sorrow for a while.

Hearing Da Furen asked her, she shook her head expressionlessly, "Jing Wu doesn't know, but... I guess Miss Seven, a weak woman with no power to restrain a chicken, should not have this ability."

In fact, she was very sure it wasn't Bai Xiantong!After all, she saw Bai Xiantong's past and present with her own eyes. If she had this ability, that Bai Xiantong who came from another time and space would not have died tragically in a deserted courtyard.And that Bai Xiantong's golden finger has already been in her hands, so what can she use to kill someone?
"Really? Maybe I was thinking too much. Also, there will never be only one enemy."

The eldest lady has a calm face.

"Okay, none of this is important. How about Manxiang Garden? Your father will investigate it. I believe he will give everyone a satisfactory answer."

Jing Wu thought to himself that it was true.

But the eldest lady changed the subject and said: "Jingwu, please help me identify something first. I am old and I am really a little insensitive to this."

...

Jing Wu followed the eldest lady, and after a while went directly to the eldest lady's room. At this moment, there were still only the two of them, and the eldest lady did not have anyone to serve her.

Carefully looking around, I have been to Zhining Courtyard so many times since I was a child, this is the first time Jing Wu has entered the room of the eldest lady, and it is slightly different from the luxury she imagined. The room of the eldest lady is indeed "luxury". ", but the overall feeling is not "hua".

At first glance, it seems very plain and not ostentatious at all, but at a second glance, you will find that every decoration and every curtain in the room is extremely elegant.The quality of everything is almost the highest in this era.

"Come on, Jing Wu, help me look at this. I'm more sensitive to smell, and I can't smell this too strong smell."

As the eldest lady said, she handed a wooden box to Jing Wu.

Jing Wu subconsciously reached out to take it, and the oily box was engraved with the shape of a seal, with the word "Stealing Fragrance" on it.

"Stealing Incense... Stealing Incense Pavilion? The one who sells perfume?" she couldn't help but murmured.
