Song Mingli didn't say much, but waved to the maid to bring it.

"I don't know much about wine, so please taste it yourself, Master." Song Mingli said modestly.

Yun Gu smelled the aroma of the wine, poured the wine, and looked at the color of the wine. The color of the wine was clear and the aroma of the wine was rich.

She picked up the glass and took a sip.

"Hmm?" Yun Gu's eyes lit up. "Aged! It must be at least fifty years old!"

Yun Gu said in surprise.

Song Mingli smiled slightly, "It seems that the restaurant didn't lie to me."

"Good wine, good wine!" Yun Gu was overjoyed.

Song Mingli waved his hand and called a first-rate maid to present pot after pot of fine wine.

"It seems that you are a person who understands wine. I have stored some wine, but I don't know whether it is good or bad. Please help me take a look." Song Mingli smiled gently.

Yun Gu felt relieved.

Look how good he is at talking!

When I invited her to drink, instead of saying I was treating her to a drink, I asked her to help me taste the quality of the wine!

She felt very happy when she heard it.

If she hadn't promised Madam Gu first, she would have wanted to make friends with the young lady!

But when I think about how I had already plotted against her for Old Madam Gu many years ago...I better forget it!

Yun Gu ate and drank her fill in Qichiyuan.

"The young lady is really nice! The wine is good! She is also a nice person!

"Don't worry, I will definitely get it done for you tonight!"

Yun Gu drank a lot of wine, and it was aged, so it didn’t irritate her throat and had a strong aftertaste.

She just felt like she was walking on the clouds, her steps were light and fluttery.

"Master, don't be in such a hurry to leave. My lady has prepared a gift for you!"

Zi Su brought a box.

Yun Gu opened it and saw... Wow! A box full of pearls, jade and gems!

Her slightly drunk eyes suddenly lit up!

"So generous! So refreshing!" Yun Gu hugged the box tightly.

She felt something was wrong...

But as soon as she thought about it, the alcohol started to sway in her head.

There's nothing wrong with that! This was given to her voluntarily and on her own initiative by the young lady!

There's nothing wrong with her eating and taking things at the same time!

"Stop, stay!" Yun Gu waved her hand and stopped the maids in Qichiyuan from seeing her off.

She hugged the treasure box tightly and staggered back to Chongming Hall.

She entered the room prepared for her by Nanny Shi. The altar and other items were already ready.

She looked at the time on the clepsydra again.

"It's not too early or too late. There's still a quarter of an hour left. It's the best time to do it."

Gu Yun took out the paper bag she had prepared and put Song Mingli's ruby ​​hairpin and Song Mingli's birth date into the paper bag.

"Master? Master? Are you back?"

The voice of Nanny Shi came from outside the door.

Yun Gu got up and opened the door.

But there was a "creak" sound and the window was blown open by the wind.

Yun Gu glanced at the window. The wind was not strong and she was too lazy to close it.

Nanny Shi knocked on the door again, "Master?"

Yun Gu ignored the window and walked straight to the door.

A breeze blew the window.

It seemed like a dark shadow fell into the room.

Yun Gu frowned and looked, only to see the swaying shadow of the osmanthus tree outside the window, reflected in the window and swaying slightly in the wind.

"What's the matter? I'm just about to start a ritual, don't disturb me!"

Aunt Yun opened the door and said to Nanny Shi unhappily.

"The old lady has something else to tell you, and would like to ask you to come over." Nanny Shi glanced into the room and said in a low voice.

Aunt Yun was a little impatient.

"There is less than a minute left before the best time. If we waste time, it will not be my responsibility!"

"It won't keep you long!" said Nanny Shi with a smile.

"Let's go then!"

Aunt Yun turned around, closed the door, and asked Nanny Shi to lead the way.

Nanny Shi took two steps and suddenly covered her stomach, as if she had to go to the bathroom urgently.

Nanny Shi called Xiangkui over and she hurried to the bathroom.

A thought suddenly flashed through Yun Gu's mind.

But the smell of alcohol on her breath slowed her reaction, and she failed to grasp the fleeting thought.

Yun Gu entered the old lady’s main room.

However, Nanny Shi quietly opened the door of the room where Yun Gu was performing the ritual.

There was an envelope on the altar.

There were symbols on the envelope that she couldn't understand.

Nanny Shi stepped forward cautiously and quickly opened the envelope.

"what!"

She was so startled that she almost dropped the thing in her hand.

In the envelope was the hairpin that the old lady had given to Yun Gu. The birth date and horoscope were not Song Mingli's - but the old lady's!

"She has indeed been... bribed by the young lady!" Nanny Shi gritted her teeth.

I heard footsteps outside.

Nanny Shi quickly stuffed the hairpin and the note with the birth date back into the envelope.

She placed the envelope on the altar.

He quickly retreated behind the curtain, held his breath and hid himself.

"Squeak" Yun Gu pushed the door open.

She shook her head and said, "You are such a nagging old man. You have already explained something to me, but you insist on asking me to come over and explain it again!

"If it weren't for the fact that business is so bad these days, I wouldn't even serve an old lady like this!

"Haha, but it's okay. One method, two businesses. That young lady is really generous!"

Aunt Yun didn't know that everything she said fell into the ears of Nanny Shi.

Nanny Shi hid behind the curtain and felt as if she was struck by lightning.

Fortunately, the old lady was careful and let her come and check it out!

Otherwise, if you get harmed by someone, you won’t even know how it happened!

Nanny Shi quietly poked her head out and saw Yun Gu holding a brass bell in one hand, making hand gestures with the other, with her eyes closed and shaking her head.

Nanny Shi held her breath and quietly approached her from behind.

Nanny Shi was very nervous... People who knew magic like this must be very vigilant, right?

She only has one chance! It's either success or death!

Nanny Shi tiptoed and came silently behind Yun Gu. She suddenly raised the heavy brass candlestick and smashed it down!

boom!

The candlestick hit Yun Gu's head hard.

Yun Gu shook her body.

She seemed to be turning back.

Granny Shi gritted her teeth and made up her mind——

Boom!

Two more hits, gritting teeth, and smashing down hard!

boom--

Yun Gu's body fell limply in front of the altar table.

Nanny Shi was also very frightened. She gasped, picked up the envelope on the table, and ran away.

She escaped from Yun Gu's house and ran back to the old lady's bedroom at the fastest speed in her life.

"Madam! Madam! You really guessed it right!"

Nanny Shi handed the envelope to the old lady for her review.

The old lady poured out her red gold hairpin and her birth date from the envelope.

Her face immediately turned pale.

"Yeah!"

Madam Gu slapped her thigh and gnashed her teeth, "She actually betrayed me and joined Song Mingli!"

Madam Gu was so angry that her chest heaved violently.

Nanny Shi was afraid that she would get hurt by anger, so she hurried forward to rub her back to help her calm down.

"Don't worry, old lady. I have already interrupted Yun-gu's practice."

But Old Madam Gu caught a glimpse of the corner of her sleeve.

"what……"

Old Madam Gu exclaimed and pushed away Nanny Shi's hand.

Nanny Shi lifted up the corner of her sleeve and took a look. "Ah, blood!"

It must have been from when she used the candlestick to kill Yun Gu.

"What...what should I do, old lady...

"In order to stop Yun Gu from doing this, I, this old slave, must kill her!"

Madam Gu's eyes widened. "You...what did you say? You, you killed someone?"

Madam Shi fell to her knees, "Madam, please save me! I was afraid she would harm you, so I attacked her from behind while she was doing this!"
