Mrs. Shizi, she is both wise and brave

Chapter 1 We will all cooperate

Chapter 1 We will all cooperate

The cold dew has passed, and the days are getting shorter and shorter. At about [-]:[-], the sky darkens, and there is only a ray of sunset in the sky struggling to be swallowed up by the darkness.

Under the gradually dimming sky, there are many sails and masts at the port of Zhiguzhai, and the boats are connected.At a glance, the boat is bustling with people ashore, a busy scene.Not far away, there are constantly ships waiting in line to berth in the port.

On a big ship with the flag of "Meng" at the port, the maids and servants are coming and going, busy with their work.

In the room, Su Jingning was standing in front of a mahogany boxer table with a pale face, with a gleaming dagger firmly resting on her neck.

A series of goosebumps formed on her delicate skin due to the cold touch, but she just froze, not daring to move.

Su Jingning swallowed unconsciously.

Diagonally opposite, her bloodless face and a pair of indifferent and deep eyes are reflected in the Shuangluan Linghua bronze mirror.

And the owner of the eyes was wrapped tightly in black clothes from top to bottom, holding the dagger in one hand, and holding a delicate pearl hairpin in the other hand, firmly pressing against Mrs. Meng's hand next to her. Throat.

Seeing Mrs. Meng's face as white as paper and about to faint, remorse, fear, depression, and unwillingness occupied Su Jingning's heart.

Who would have thought that she ran into a thief just by going inside with Mrs. Meng to get an embroidered screen!
The strong bloody smell and strong killing intent from the other party made Su Jingning's scalp tingle instantly.

I just felt like I was going to die on the spot.

But she doesn't want to die!
She just came back from rebirth, and her blood and blood have not been avenged, and her flesh and blood relatives have not been rescued, so how could she die here so uselessly?

Thinking of the tragic ending of her grandmother's family in the previous life, and her father's face of vicissitudes and decline, Su Jingning seemed to have infinite courage.

To change the tragedy that will happen in the future, one must live first!

Su Jingning regained her composure, suppressed the trembling in her heart and said in a low voice: "A knight should not be impulsive!"

"We will do our best to cooperate with whatever request you have."

Hearing her words, the man in black looked down.Su Jingning instantly felt the cold gaze of the other party.

She maintained her composure against the pressure, and let the other party look at her without moving to show her sincerity.

After a while, the man in black looked away.

Although there were no words, the killing intent that had been condensed before had obviously faded a lot.

Su Jingning breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and said tentatively, "A chivalrous man is looking for money? Although my daughter is not rich, she can still contribute a little bit."

Mrs. Meng finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and hurriedly said in a trembling voice: "If this is the case, the lady is also willing to help."

The man in black didn't speak, but moved his dagger slightly to signal her to shut up.

The tension in Su Jingning's heart was slightly loosened.

As long as they are not killed immediately, it means there is room for relaxation.

She couldn't help but secretly smiled wryly, she really didn't expect that she would fall into such a dangerous situation just after being resurrected.

Originally, she was taken to live with her ancestral home in Taixing Mansion since her mother died when she was seven years old.

This time, the ship of Meng Yushi's family went to Beijing together after receiving the letter from the Su family asking her to go back.

But in her previous life, she directly tore up the letter because of her resistance to the Su Mansion, and dragged her return until the next summer, so she didn't encounter this matter.

Su Jingning's thoughts changed sharply.

The man in black didn't look like he was begging for money, let alone begging for sex, but he hid here with all his blood, so there was only one possibility left.

He is hiding from people.

Avoid being chased or hunted down by others!
Thinking of this, Su Jingning was determined.

This kind of person is the least willing to increase the risk of exposure by causing incidents, so that she and Mrs. Meng will be much safer.

Su Jingning couldn't help but relax a little bit, and her face also recovered a little rosy.

Since the man in black didn't make any next move, she should just wait patiently.

But things changed too fast, just as Su Jingning thought about it, the curtain connecting the inner and outer rooms was lifted with a "swish".

"Ma'am!" Madam Meng's personal nurse yelled out in fright, and slumped down on the ground.

Su Jingning's heart tightened, for fear that the man in black would take her life with trembling hands.

Fortunately, the other party seemed to have no such intentions for the time being, and still held the two murder weapons firmly.

The people outside noticed that there was a swarm of movement coming in.

The first one was a handsome young man of fifteen or sixteen, Meng He, the son of Mrs. Meng.

Su Jingning's maid, Nianqing, followed closely behind.

After that, there were a few maidservants.

When several people saw the situation in the room, they suddenly became chaotic.

Su Jingning was in a hurry, she was afraid that some of them would go out in a daze and make a fuss, and then recruit the man in black's opponent.

The man in black is desperate, so she and Mrs. Meng may also be dragged behind!
Regardless of being held hostage, she hurriedly shouted: "Nianqing, hurry up and guard the door so that no one can go out!"

Nian Qing was taken aback, although she didn't understand Su Jingning's intention, she obediently stood at the door.

The man in black, who was about to make a move, flickered his eyes when he heard this, and then stopped moving.

Only then did Su Jingning let out a sigh of relief and let go of her heart.

Meng He also calmed down at this time.

Enduring his anxiety, he cupped his hands and said: "I also ask the chivalrous men to be merciful. If you ask for something, I will offer it with both hands."

The man in black didn't pay any attention, his exposed eyes were calm and indifferent, seeming to be a little dismissive.

Meng He was still waiting to talk, but Su Jingning interrupted him: "Young Master Meng, knights will not harm us, everyone, please wait patiently for a while!"

A trace of satisfaction flashed in the eyes of the man in black.

Meng He was taken aback for a moment, and was about to say something, when there was a sudden commotion outside.

The man in black moved his head and turned his eyes to the door.

Su Jingning immediately understood the meaning.

She looked at the pale and shivering Mrs. Meng and the unaware Meng He, sighed in her heart, and reminded: "Young Master Meng, quickly find someone to go quietly and see what's going on outside?"

Meng He just woke up and wanted to tell someone.

"Miss, I'll go!" Nian Qing who was standing at the door hurriedly said.

Seeing that the man in black had no intention of objecting, she lifted the curtain and went out.

The room fell into a strange silence again.

Fortunately, Nianqing turned back soon.

"A group of officers and soldiers came, saying that there are thieves hiding on the boat, and they want to come up and search." Nian Qing looked at the "thief" in front of her, and couldn't help swallowing.

At this time, everyone also understood that the men in black were officers and soldiers hiding outside.

"Don't arouse suspicion, send them away."

The man in black finally spoke the first sentence, with a dark and hoarse voice.

"Okay." Meng He quickly responded.

"It's just, can you let them go first?" Meng He continued, "Don't worry, we will never betray you."

"No." The man in black immediately refused, but he gave in after thinking about it: "Or you can replace them."

"no!"

This time it was Mrs. Meng who spoke, and before Meng He could agree, she refused with a look of panic.

"If my son were to replace me, I would rather die!"

As she spoke, she slammed into the hairpin.
