Chapter 55 The Secret of Qingmang

I was taken aback, and subconsciously felt a little uneasy.After struggling for a moment, unable to resist the curiosity in his heart, Qingmang squeezed out the note and slowly unfolded it.

Seeing clearly what was written on it, she suddenly opened her eyes wide and let out a low "Ah!", holding the note tremblingly, her face turned pale with fright!
There are only two simple sentences on the note, one is "the penultimate courtyard house in Mahjong Hutong", and the other is "see you under the wisteria trellis on Lion Mountain on the south bank of Taiye Pool at midnight tonight".

These two sentences were ordinary, but it was as if a hand had grabbed her throat, making her shudder and feel out of breath!

From the queen's palace to the noble concubine's side, although Qingmang racked his brains and tried his best to work for Lin Guifei, it was difficult for him to be as wholehearted as he used to be for the queen.

So, she left a way out for herself.

She quietly bought a two-entry house in Mahjong Hutong behind her back, and the location was the penultimate house in Mahjong Hutong.The courtyard is neither big nor small, but the houses and courtyards are very brand new and tidy.It is also very suitable to find a quiet place amidst the hustle and bustle.

But it is not cheap to buy such a courtyard house in the capital, she spent [-] silver to buy it!

She is a court lady, even a favored court lady, only three taels of silver a month, even if it is the New Year's Day or the master's happy reward, a month's time together with the monthly fee is no more than a few dozen taels at most, it is difficult to buy such a house!
Because the Lin family often needs to send silver notes to Concubine Lin Gui, and the person who handles this is Qingmang.

Qingmang put his mind on this, and quietly extracted from it, saving a total of nearly 4 taels of silver.

In addition to buying the house, I also bought a small shop selling sewing and groceries, and "kindly" rescued a mother and daughter, who coaxed them to be grateful with a few words and signed a contract of sale to help her manage the shop.

In this way, as long as she thinks about the property outside the palace, her life in the palace will be stable.

She did this matter very secretly, not to mention that Concubine Lin Gui knew nothing, even with her best sister, she did not reveal a word, because she knew this matter better than anyone else. What will happen!
The palace rules do not allow the maids and eunuchs who are still serving in the palace to own property outside.Second, if the imperial concubine finds out about this, she will have no choice but to die!
The more Qingmang thought about it, the more frightened she became, with cold sweat running down her back, holding the note as if holding a deadly poisonous snake that would bite her anytime!

She wanted to get rid of it, to ignore it, but she didn't dare!
She was startled and frightened, no matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't figure it out, who is this person?How did you know your own secret!
She can assure you that she never told anyone about it.The mother and daughter and the person who bought the house, absolutely no one knows her identity!

"Who the hell! Who could it be!" Qingmang couldn't use the white fungus, red dates and lotus seed soup, his heart was extremely agitated, and he looked at the beating candle, as if it was the light from hell.

"Whether you are a human or a ghost, only the dead will keep secrets! Hmph, if you want to blackmail me with this, you underestimate me too!" Qingmang punched the table, clenched her fist tightly, and her eyes across the cold.

Having made up her mind, she quickly got up and changed her clothes, pulled up her bun, and picked out the sharpest jewel-encrusted hibiscus gold hairpin from the dressing box.

Facing the light, the tip of the hairpin shone coldly, imposing determination.Qingmang smiled with satisfied lips, inserted the gold hairpin into her bun, and closed the door to go out quietly.

No wonder she is cruel, she has nothing to do!
At this time, it was still early in the middle of Haishi, Qingmang took a shortcut and quickened his pace.

She wanted to arrive before the middle of the day, so she could find a hidden place to hide, and then wait for the opportunity to act.

It just so happens that the place is right next to the Taiye Pool, and the person who solved it was pushed directly into the Taiye Pool, destroying the corpse and eradicating traces, clean and tidy!

Qingmang sneered: You can't blame me for the burial place you found yourself!

Lion Rock is not a mountain, but a rugged rockery piled with strange rocks.

There is a wisteria trellis on the side of the Taiye Pond under the rockery, and the purple flowers in summer are hanging densely in clusters. Looking from a distance, it looks like a purple cloud, very beautiful.

At this time, the wisteria flowers were about to wither, and there were only a few scattered flowers left, which looked bleak.At this night, there is no good scene.

Qingmang arrived quietly, looked around, but no one came.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and hid herself in the dark place.

No, Qingmang just squatted in the darkness holding his breath, and before he had time to calm down completely, as a gust of wind passed by, something hit the back of his head hard, and he became dizzy with a "hum!" in his head.

She tried hard to turn around and see who it was, she opened her mouth to make a sound, but the back of her head was hit hard again, the world spun, her eyes closed, and her body fell limply to the ground.

Pei Minglan chuckled disdainfully, how could she not know what kind of temperament the person she had trained by herself?

Glancing at the particularly conspicuous golden hairpin on her bun that didn't match her clothes at all, Pei Minglan understood it, and sneered in her heart: Very good!You sure as fuck!
Pei Minglan pulled her into the water pavilion beside her, tied her up with the rope prepared in advance, gagged her, and poured cold water on her to wake her up.

The icy cold lake water stimulated Qingmang to open his eyes fiercely. His face, eyes, and collar were wet, and there were still water droplets falling. Qingmang frowned uncomfortably, and wanted to call out, but found that his mouth was covered with tears. Something was blocked and I couldn't make a sound. I wanted to stand up urgently, but I was shocked to find that my hands and feet were tightly bound and I couldn't move!
Qingmang was shocked, opened his eyes wide and looked up at Pei Minglan in front of him, seeing her face clearly, Qingmang was angry, anxious and angry, and struggled crazily with a whining sound.

Pei Minglan!The second young lady of Pei Ge's old mansion!How could it be her!how is this possible!

Qingmang's heart is in a mess, there are too many questions that she can't figure out!
But her heart gradually settled down, her eyes gradually softened, and she looked at Pei Minglan pleadingly.

She secretly swore in her heart that as long as she didn't die today, she and Pei Minglan would be incompatible in the future!

Pei Minglan smiled faintly, stretched out her hand and pulled out the gold hairpin from her bun, and said with a smile: "This gold hairpin is pretty good, very sharp, you want to use this to kill me, right? Hongwei, what is your heart?" Time has become so vicious!"

Qingmang's complexion changed drastically, his eyes showed horror, and his expression suddenly became agitated.She was panting heavily, struggling and whimpering.

Hongwei, Hongwei!She hasn't thought of this name for a long, long time, maybe it's been a long time since she heard it aroused!It's been so long that she almost forgot that she used to be called Hongwei, and she was the eldest maid next to the Empress of Fengyi Palace!
