Chapter 24 Who is it!

She thought that the maid who took care of her hid her and Yuan'er here, and said that someone would come to look for them after a while, and told them not to go out——

Thinking of that handsome, only 16-year-old maid in her prime who was chased by the killer and fled in a panic, and finally died tragically under the knife, Chen Zhi hated her so much.

When the father was young, he indulged too much. Although there were three thousand beauties in the harem, he didn't have many children, and some of them died before they grew up. Therefore, the total number of princes and daughters in the palace is only five fingers.

Therefore, the emperor attached great importance to his children.

But now it has been two months since she and Yuan'er disappeared, and no one came to look for her after disappearing for such a long time, something must have happened.

But she wasn't sure if she was thinking too much.

She could see how messy it was here, and it was possible that those who were looking for them were blocked halfway.

"Yuan'er, do you think we should go by ourselves, or obediently wait here."

Chen Zhi held his younger brother's soft little hand and shook it, her beautiful eyes were bottomless.

Chen Yuan didn't know what his sister was talking about. Seeing her shaking his little hand, he thought she was playing with him, and a happy smile appeared on her white and tender cheeks.

And here, Mu Zhixu returned home after wandering around outside, but found some small accidents.

She keenly noticed that the nails placed in the corner had been moved, there were a few footprints on the wall, and there were a few bloody nails around.

Mu Zhixu's face turned cold, seeing that he would not be able to sleep well tonight.

Back in the house, Mu Zhixu asked Li Sanniang to take her two younger sisters to another room.

"Why do you want to change it? Is it okay to live?"

Regarding Li Sanniang's question, Mu Zhixu just said that she has something to do at night, so don't disturb them.

Although Li Sanniang was puzzled, seeing Mu Zhixu's serious face, she didn't ask any further questions, and obediently took her two daughters to change rooms.

Taking advantage of the fact that it was still some time before night, Mu Zhixu took the remaining nails from before and sprinkled a lot of nails in places where the gangsters might appear. There are so many empty houses around, not to mention anything else, enough nails.

After finishing all this, she took a hoe and dug a few big holes in the yard.

Li Sanniang and her two younger sisters saw Mu Zhixu's behavior inexplicably, but they still didn't ask any more questions, and came forward to help.

The speed is much faster when several people work together, and several large holes are quickly dug.

In the middle of the night, Li Sanniang took Mu Zhilan and Mu Zhiliu to sleep in another room.

Mu Zhixu went to bed when she wasn't there. She stood in the shadow of a corner of the yard and waited quietly. This place was a blind spot.

The ugly time in ancient times is from 1:3 am to [-]:[-] am. It is the time when people sleep most deeply, and it is also the time period that thieves and gangsters like most.

Sure enough, not long after, she heard a strange male voice coming from outside the courtyard,
"You guys, be careful. I accidentally stepped on a nail when I brought the idiot here in the morning. He is still in so much pain that he can't get out of bed."

The man's voice was obviously lowered on purpose, but it was still very loud in this silent night, and Mu Zhixu could hear it clearly with his ear pressed against the wall.

Immediately afterwards, a male voice responded, "Understood, don't worry, we are not as stupid as him. But are you sure there is food in this house?"

"There must be food. I checked it out. There is only one woman with two young girls in this family, and there is not even a man."
