Guide to the Empress becoming a God

Chapter 167

The eldest lady has always been straightforward, and never speaks so darkly.

Tan Qin glanced suspiciously into the room, her brows furrowed even tighter.

After dinner, Hao Ruisheng still let Tanqin burn an incense stick as usual, rested his books and leaned on the bedside to rummage.Tan Qin personally took the maid and the daughter-in-law who were watching the night in the outer courtyard to check everything carefully, and the courtyard door was bolted before turning back to Hao Ruisheng's bedroom.

Seeing Tan Qin coming in, Hao Ruisheng got up and lifted the gauze curtain and said, "You have worked so hard these two days, send someone else to watch tonight, you can sleep well when you go back, your eyes are red from the boil."

Tan Qin said: "Now the only old man left in this yard is the maidservant. This is the big day for the eldest lady. Even if the maidservant has worked hard these few days, the maidservant should go to bed early. The maidservant will stay outside."

Hao Ruisheng's face darkened: "I'm not a child, so I have to get up at night to nurse? You also said that you are the only old man left by my side. If you get tired again, who do you ask me to count on?" Go? Be obedient, go back to sleep quickly, you have to get enough energy, otherwise I really have no hope. Just leave Xiaohong outside."

Tanqin couldn't stand it these few days, and after hearing Hao Ruisheng's insistence, she didn't say anything more.

In a few days it will be the big day of the young lady's engagement. Originally, there was still Tanyin to alternate with her, but now she is the only maidservant left in the yard who has served her closely for many years. Tanqin also knows that she is the most ill at the moment.

For the eldest lady's engagement ceremony, she will have to work hard for a few days.

Talking about the qin and going down to the embroidery pavilion, she summoned Zhu Mei to explain in detail what she was on duty at night, and then went to the room where she lived in the back.

She lives next door to Tanyin, there are four servant rooms in total, she and Tanyin each have a small room, and the other two big rooms, one is for maids and the other is for wives and mothers-in-law.

When passing by the door of Tanyin's room, Tanqin glanced at the dark doors and windows, and sighed heavily.

Tan Yin suddenly disappeared, and she actually had a bad premonition in her heart.

After entering the room, Tanyin was extremely tired, lying on the bed without washing up and fell asleep quickly.

In Hao Ruisheng's embroidered pavilion in the front yard, Zhu Mei went upstairs to serve Hao Ruisheng to lie down, and then went downstairs to sleep on the warm cage where she usually sleeps at night when she is playing the piano and talking about music.

It was the first time that Zhu Mei was left with Hao Ruisheng on night duty, which meant that she would be reused, so Zhu Mei seemed extra cautious, and she made up her mind to serve carefully, and strive to leave a good life for the eldest lady and sister Tanqin. impression.

She also knew that something happened to Tanyin, and maybe she would be promoted to a big maid like Tanyin in the future.

Thinking this way in her heart, Zhu Mei secretly reminded herself not to fall asleep, and listen carefully to the call upstairs.But as soon as her head touched the pillow, her eyelids involuntarily began to sink.

Zhu Mei's heart was still bright, and she kept reminding herself not to sleep, not to sleep, but soon she felt that her eyelids were getting heavier and she fell into a deep sleep.

As soon as she fell asleep, the old willow tree in the flower gallery released scarlet light, and the scarlet blood turned and filled the whole body of the tree, and weird scarlet branches began to grow wildly, and went straight to Hao Ruisheng's window.

As soon as the scarlet and strange willow branches penetrated into the room, the little mirage lying in the Kunlun jade beside Hao Ruisheng immediately opened its tired eyes.

The little guy sees this monster every night, and he is no longer afraid, but his increasingly weak body makes him more and more unable to protect Hao Rui.

Staring viciously at the demon red wicker that was getting closer, the little guy clenched his fists and released the last energy. In an instant, a white and crystal-clear barrier spread from the Kunlun jade body, wrapping Hao Ruisheng's body little by little.

Since yesterday, the little mirage has felt that it has no way to support a qualified barrier. It feels like some evil spirits have penetrated into the barrier. I don't know if it will affect Hao Ruisheng.

Those wickers also seemed to feel that the little mirage was using a barrier to hide Hao Ruisheng's breath, and they stretched towards the bed at a frenzied speed.

The little mirage desperately clenched its small fists, trying its best to stretch the barrier bigger and bigger, and it was about to cover Hao Ruisheng's entire body. Those powerful demon branches were one step faster than the little guy.

One stretched to Hao Ruisheng's feet before the little mirage's enchantment was completely stretched, and stabbed into the sole of Hao Ruisheng's feet without hesitation.

Hao Rui, who was sleeping peacefully on the bed, opened her eyes abruptly. The originally dark eyes had turned into a coquettish scarlet like wicker.

The pure white barrier that the little mirage tried to prop up also shattered at this moment with a "pop".

The little mirage looked desperately at Hao Ruisheng who had a strange expression on the bed for the last time, and closed his eyes tiredly, his small body was almost transparent until it almost completely disappeared.

Willow branches frantically inserted into Hao Ruisheng's body from the soles of her feet.

But this time, these willow branches did not absorb, but injected something into her body. Hao Ruisheng's entire body, the blood vessels under the skin, had scarlet blood flowing visible to the naked eye.

At the same time, Tan Qin, who was sleeping in the backyard, suddenly woke up from her dream.

Tan Qin sat up abruptly, looked into the room, only to find that the room was empty.

She had just dreamed about Tanyin.

In her dream, Tanyin urgently called her to see the eldest lady, saying that the eldest lady was being hurt by a demon...

Tan Qin glanced at the dark night outside the window, recalling the dream that seemed real just now, she was still uneasy after all, got up, lifted her clothes, and walked to the front yard with a lantern.

At this time, those demon branches are still frantically injecting scarlet blood into Hao Ruisheng's body, Tan Qin walks into the embroidery pavilion with a lantern, and sees Zhu Mei who is sleeping on the warm cage, sleeping soundly.

She didn't disturb Zhu Mei, and walked upstairs with a lantern. Tanqin couldn't see the monster branches that penetrated from the window.

She walked up to the bedroom on the second floor, sniffed it, and felt that the smell in the room was not very good, so she went to the incense burner and lit a sandalwood.

The smoke of sandalwood spread into the room, and those coquettish willow branches felt the purifying and exorcising breath of sandalwood, twisted their bodies a few times in discomfort, and slowly pushed them out of Hao Ruisheng's body.

Reluctantly shrunk out of the window, and slowly retracted.

The willow branches withdrew from the body, and Hao Ruisheng, who was staring at the scarlet eyes on the bed, closed them slowly again.

When Tan Qin walked to the bed and opened the curtain to check on the bed, seeing Hao Ruisheng sleeping peacefully, she was completely relieved.

She glanced at the dark night outside the window, and knew that she would not be able to sleep even if she went back, so she simply dismantled the temporary bed and fell asleep by Hao Ruisheng's bed.

The sound of the watch from a distance knocked three times, it was the end of the ugly hour, and in the deep courtyard where everything was silent, only the leeward wind whistled.

Under the big willow tree, Yan Yan and Shen Yuyun arrived as scheduled.

Yanyan looked up at the big bare willow tree, and asked Shen Yuyun: "Can we do it at this hour?"

Shen Yuyun nodded: "It's only convenient for us at this time. As long as we seal it in time when we take out the beast's heart later, there won't be any problems. I brought the Xiezhi box. You just need to rest assured and follow my instructions." Just do it."

Yan Yan nodded, and took a lavender talisman from Shen Yuyun's hand.

This talisman is completely different from the ones she has seen before. The talisman painted at the door is not written with cinnabar, but a very complicated dark green ink, maybe it is ink made by some kind of spiritual plant, Yanyan vaguely smells flowers and plants on it taste, slightly bitter.
