Chapter 431 Do You Think Too Much?
Xiao Huai shook her back and said, "I know."

Since there are women among the killers, it means that it is very unlikely that there is more than one diva.

However, there are also female arresters in the Dazhou yamen, and there are also women in the Lingyun Pavilion. It is not uncommon for the Taifu's mansion to have a few female guards.

"Look at it first."

With her in his arms, he retreated the same way and exited the garden gate.

I've never heard of anyone breaking into the Taifu's residence at night—of course, there may be some, but judging from the posture, it is reckoned that even if they break through, they will die.

This time is no longer suitable for adventure.

Shen Xi didn't ask much, followed him back to the garden, and then chose a secluded place to walk.

Just after they hid, two servant girls walked over to the gate of the garden where they stayed, and if they looked carefully, they happened to be the same group they had seen earlier.

The servant girl was striding forward, seeing that her mannerisms were becoming more and more humble, she walked to the corner of the corridor, and another servant girl came in front of her, and the two met and talked under the shade of the tree.

Xiao Huai took her to hide behind the camellia tree, only heard some homely things, and then one of them left, and the other was going to the front yard.

There was a cricket chirping in the grass, and then someone called out, "Sister Yue!"

The maid turned her head: "Who called me?"

A person hurriedly came over from the fork here, and before she could see clearly, the person raised his hand, and immediately pulled out a long whip and wrapped it around her neck!

Shen Xi raised it in his heart, and looked at the person who made the attack, it vaguely seemed to be Wu Teng!

But before she could react, the servant girl calmly grabbed the whip and swung it forward! ——Sure enough, he is a Lianjiazi!

But she didn't struggle a few times, and then another figure descended from the sky, and in a flash, a cold blade was already pressed against her neck!

The maid turned pale with fright, and opened her mouth to scream, but someone pressed down on the tip of the knife, and she immediately fell silent, and became more honest!

"It's Su Yan." Xiao Huai said.

Shen Xi nodded, and only then put down his worry.

Xiao Huai listened carefully to the surroundings, then took her to Su Yan's side quietly.

Then, with a wink, Su Yan nodded, and quickly took the maid with him to the low wall of a tree covered with ivy. Next to it was a dry well blocked by a headboard, which should be a place rarely seen by ordinary people.

"Who are you?!" The servant girl glanced at their faces.

"Is the Taifu from Helian or from Tuoba?"

This is what Xiao Huai asked.He didn't seem to hear her question at all.

She swallowed, and fixed her eyes on his exposed eyes: "Tuoba people. Or Helian people...the blood is impure and cannot be identified."

She also lowered her voice very low, most of her attention was on Su Yan's hand holding the handle of the knife.

Xiao Huai paused for a moment, then said again: "What disease does Tai Tuo have?"

"Wind, rheumatism, when it rains, hands and feet hurt!"

"What was the master doing the night the accident happened on the pier?"

"I didn't do anything, I rested on time!"

"Did you rest on time?" Xiao Huai suddenly sneered, "I didn't say which night it was, nor did I say anything, how do you know he didn't do anything?"

The servant girl trembled, and her face turned pale again: "Because, because of the Taifu, I rest on time every day, no matter what day it is!"

Xiao Huai hooked the corners of his lips again, and asked, "Has the Grand Tutor mentioned anything about Da Qin recently?"

"No!" The servant girl made a timid voice: "The servant girl is just a second-class maidservant, not close to the Taifu, and he is entrusted to strict management to handle the external affairs—"

"Strict management?"

"It's a personal follower who has followed the Taifu for many years! His name is Yan Zhong!"

When Shen Xi heard the words "following for many years", his eyes flickered slightly, and he remembered the housekeeper who followed Bi Shangyun earlier.

Xiao Huai took out a dagger from nowhere, and stroked it against her ear: "What about 'Young Master'?"

Hearing this, the servant girl raised her head suddenly: "What young master?... There is no young master in the house!"

The dagger paused, Xiao Huai's eyes turned cold instantly, and then the tip of the knife pressed down, directly piercing her flesh: "If you dare to lie, I will kill you!"

"The servant did not lie! I don't know what kind of young master! The Taifu has never had a child!"

Shen Xihan looked at her, except for the fear in her eyes, there was no other emotion.

Does that mean really no?

Since there is no such thing, then what does Bi Shangyun mean by the young master?
Could it be that she was thinking too much?

This is impossible……

The maid under the knife was still trembling, but suddenly a golden light flashed, and a golden hairpin stuck on her head suddenly came into view...

How could a second-class maid have such expensive jewelry? !

Thinking of the movement of her footsteps here, how could the servant girl take advantage of Xiao Huai's thoughtful mouth, suddenly raised her elbows and hit Su Yan's jaw!

There was a finger-width gap between the knife and her body, and she immediately yelled, "Come here—"

With a muffled groan, Xiao Huai's eyes turned cold, and the dagger in his hand had already been pierced into her back involuntarily!

Shen Xi swallowed fiercely, and hearing the sound of gradual footsteps, he tightly grasped Xiao Huai's sleeve...

As soon as the body stood up and landed on the tree, many people had already rushed over from below. Looking through the shadows of the flowers, the one standing first was the Grand Tutor Bi Shangyun.

Shen Xi clenched the two thunderbolts tightly, and then quickly tied the veil that he had previously covered up on his face from his arms.

In front of them was a row of more than a dozen guards with knives, and behind the guards, Bi Shangyun stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the motionless servant girl on the ground without saying a word.

Then he squatted down, rolled up his sleeves, and slowly came to inspect the wound on the servant girl's back.

"Teacher, be careful!"

The accompanying steward hurriedly stopped him, "Dirty hands carefully!"

Mrs. Bi didn't pay attention to it, and after reading it leisurely, she washed her hands in the sink brought by her servant, and sighed: "It's a good burial."

There is always the brightest light in the place where Master Tai Tuo is. As he rolled up his sleeves and washed his hands, Shen Xi frowned at a dark scar on the inside of his left wrist...

On his left forearm, a deeply sunken hexagonal scar stood out against his fair skin.

Hexagonal scars...

"What's wrong?" Xiao Huai whispered in her ear.

He was so dangerous just now, but his tone was still calm at the moment.

She shook her head and said, "Go back."

This is not a place to talk, if someone died, this is the only place to end tonight.

"Teacher! Eunuch Li in Qianqing Palace is here to ask to see you!"

Just at this time, a voice suddenly sounded from the gate of the garden, which suddenly cut through the solemnity of the garden.

Bi Shangyun stared at the night sky for a moment, then subconsciously turned his face towards the gate of the garden.

The author's IQ is limited, and he can't write a smart, cute and lovable heroine. I know, everyone is taking it too seriously. As for words like "fucking", please don't use them in book reviews for me, because they are really Not very cute either.
