Son of Heaven Assistance System

Chapter 223 The Night Comes
It was just dark, and the small courtyard, which had been silent for a whole day, was suddenly knocked.

At that time, Jing Wu was helping the beautiful woman clean up in the kitchen, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, he was startled suddenly, the porcelain bowl in his hand was suddenly lost, and it fell into four or five yuan with a "crack".

"Girl, what are you thinking? It's just the sound of knocking on the door, which scares you so much." The beauty joked, wiped her hands, and bent down to pick up the debris on the ground.

"Why don't you go back to your room first, it doesn't matter, I'm here."

While speaking, the beauty neatly put away the pieces on the ground, and when she was about to get up, the knock on the door sounded again.

Jing Wu was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned around and walked towards the door, "I'll open the door."

The sky became darker again, and the surrounding things became blurry, so that Jing Wu couldn't tell who it was the moment he opened the door.

"Miss Jing, she is a maidservant."

"Why did you come?" Jing Wu was a little puzzled when he heard the voice of the master.

But doubts were doubts, Jing Wu still turned sideways and said: "You come in first."

The figure outside the door bowed its knees.

"No, Miss Jing. The servant girl won't go in. Madam asked the servant girl to invite you to the Zhining Courtyard, saying that she has something to say to the girl."

The person outside the door is one of Da Furen's personal servant girls, Mo Yu who used to be in charge of Da Furen's study.

Hearing the word "big madam", Jing Wu hurriedly asked: "Did madam wake up? How's the situation now?"

"It should have woken up at noon, and the rest... the servant girl is not very clear."

Jing Wu asked again: "Then... there are still many visitors at Zhining Yuan?"

"No...no more, Miss Jing, you'd better go quickly with the maid." Mo Yu's voice suddenly trembled, as if the more Jing Wu asked, the more afraid she became.

Jing Wu remained silent, quietly looking at the black shadow in front of him.

She couldn't see Mo Yu's face clearly, but subconsciously felt that Mo Yu might be just like her, full of anxiety.

Forget it, why did she need to make Mo Yu more frightened.

"Okay, let's go now."

...

The Zhining Courtyard was no different from the usual ones, the same tranquility but also somewhat depressing.

Jingwu entered the eldest lady's room without any obstruction.

A row of lamps had already been lit in the room, which was dim and hazy.

There is no strong smell of medicine as imagined, and there is no "hey... ehhhh" panting.

For a moment, Jing Wu even wondered if it was a prank.

Until she was about to reach out to lift the curtain, but the curtain was lifted from the inside with a "shua...", and then Bai Jiyuan's increasingly tough face appeared in front of Jing Wu.

With the dim light pulling, it seemed that Bai Ji was much more mature than usual.

"You're here..."

"Ah."

"Then...then you go, mother is waiting for you."

"it is good."

Bai Jiyuan turned sideways, and kept the hand that opened the curtain still. It was not until Jing Wu also entered the inner room that he raised his feet again and walked slowly towards the outer room.

The lights in the inner room are much brighter than those in the outer room, and the floor is covered with thick carpet, so there is no sound at all when you step on it.

On the contrary, it was the sound of Bai Ji's footsteps going far away and the sound of closing the door at last, which came into his ears through the curtain.

Jing Wu came back to his senses, and was about to take a step forward when a piece of his wrist slowly stretched out of the bed curtain, crooked, pale and weak.

"Come here...", the voice sounded hoarse and decaying.
