Mrs. Shizi, she is both wise and brave

Chapter 49 Stop pretending to be asleep

Su Jingning waited until the third watch, but no one came. Dan Yun, who was in the same room, was already fast asleep.

She couldn't help doubting her own judgment when she heard the howling of the cold wind outside the house.

Are you really thinking too much?

After another moment of silence, she was about to move her sleepy arm when she heard a very light thud.

It's over there in the study window.

Su Jingning's heart froze, she didn't dare to move, but quickly chewed the licorice that had been in her mouth.

She found out that this substance can be used as an antidote, but she doesn't know how effective it is.

After a few breaths, a strange fragrance came from the study, it should be drugged.She was afraid that the licorice would not work, and immediately held her breath.

Fortunately, the smell gradually dissipated after a while, and she didn't notice anything unusual about her body.

The person who put the drug on the room did not enter the room for a long time, obviously waiting for the people in the room to be completely stunned with extreme caution.

It wasn't until Su Jingning lost her composure that she heard the sound of the window being opened, and then a strong cold wind came in, and the heat in the room quickly flowed out.

She was so blown that she couldn't help shivering, her heart beating uncontrollably and fast.

The window was closed very quickly again, and the sound of thin footsteps was getting closer and closer.

Swish!
The gauze apron on Su Jingning's bed was lifted violently.

A figure stood in front of the bed and stared at her closely.

Su Jingning held the dagger hidden under the quilt, but her breathing was steady and she looked like she was asleep.

But the man still didn't relax and stared at her for half a stick of incense before he put down the curtain and walked towards Dan Yun who was sleeping by the window.

Dan Yun didn't know the truth, he really fell asleep, and with the addition of Mixiang, he fell asleep even more unconsciously.

That person really felt relieved.

He first took out a thick cloth from his arms to cover the windows and the cracks in the door, and then lit the candle he brought with him and went all the way to the study.

Soon there were some small movements of rummaging for things.

Su Jingning quietly opened her eyes when she heard the voice, and looked through the gauze curtain. A man in black with a medium build and flexible hands and feet was holding books and examining them carefully.

But he didn't look at the contents, but rubbed the cover of the book repeatedly, as if to make sure there was no interlayer.

With a thought in her heart, the cover of the book is only a little thicker, so it can hide the next piece of paper. He is probably looking for a letter or something!

Sure enough, he then used the same method to check the pictures in the room, and opened all the boxes to see if there were hidden compartments or anything.

After working like this for an hour, he checked everything, but obviously found nothing.

Two consecutive nights of useless work seemed to make him a little irritable, and he muttered something in a low voice.

It was like a thunderbolt to Su Jingning's ears.

Her eyes were wide open, but her pupils were slightly constricted, and her heart was shaken.

This man actually speaks Mongolian!

Because the Qin family in Wu Xuanhou's mansion guarded the frontier all the year round and often fought against the Tartars in the north, the Qin family had to learn Mongolian.

Su Jingning often went to the Qin Mansion since she was a child, so she naturally learned a little bit along with her. She was sure that what this man said was a foul word in Mongolian.

But now the relationship between the Tatars and the dynasty is bad, and there will be conflicts from time to time. The two sides have hated each other for a long time. If the Tatars dare to enter the country, they will be driven and hunted down.

Then how did this person sneak into Kyoto?How could he come to her room to find something?
Thinking of the fact that the Mu family was slandered for collaborating with the enemy and treason in her previous life, her heart was completely disturbed.

At this time, the man in black was already walking towards this side with a candle.

She couldn't think about it any longer, and immediately closed her eyes and tried her best to calm down her breathing.

After a few breaths, the curtain on her bed was lifted again.

Under the light, she only felt a cold and greasy gaze fell on her face, which made people want to avoid it uncontrollably.

At this time, the man spoke Mongolian softly.

It probably means that the girls in the Central Plains are more juicy.

Su Jingning felt extremely disgusted when she heard this, but she could only lie there motionless.

Unexpectedly, the man didn't leave, and after standing for a while, he reached out to touch her face out of curiosity.

Su Jingning's hairs stood on end, and she tightly held the dagger.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of branches falling outside the house.

The man woke up suddenly, immediately withdrew his hand and blew out the candle, and quickly moved to the window.

Su Jingning's beating heart gradually slowed down.

At this time, the man quietly opened a slit of the thick cloth to look out, and he was relieved when he saw that the branch was broken by the wind.

But in the end he was shocked, he no longer had the mood to take advantage of the girl, and started to pack his things neatly, and only after confirming that there were no traces of himself left in the house did he open the window and leave.

Su Jingning didn't move and waited for another stick of incense before opening her eyes and taking a deep breath.

It took her a while to calm down, but she suddenly found that the pajamas on her body had been completely soaked in sweat.

She couldn't help smiling wryly, allowing the thief to sneak into the house without making a sound, and pretending to be asleep while facing the other party's scrutiny, this kind of psychological pressure is really too great, not to mention that she was almost treated lightly.

Fortunately, I got some useful news.

At least I know what the other party is looking for, and I know his identity.

Her body was really sticky, so she got ready to get up and change clothes.

Just as he raised his hand, there was another knock from the window of the study.

Su Jingning's body froze, she quickly closed her eyes and pretended to fall asleep.

There was another gust of cold wind blowing, and the windows were quickly closed.

Hearing the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, she suddenly rejoiced. Fortunately, she hadn't gotten up to change her clothes yet, otherwise she would have bumped into it!

Who would have expected that this man could turn his back on his carbine?
The curtain was raised again, and someone stood in front of the bed again.

Su Jingning tried her best to relax her body, but her mind was on high alert.

It's just that the man just stood there quietly, not moving for a long time.

The more Su Jingning lay down, the more she felt something was wrong, and gradually became uneasy.

"Since Miss Su is awake, stop pretending to be asleep."

A chuckle suddenly sounded, and her scalp went numb for an instant.

It's not the same person as before!

Seeing that she had been exposed, Su Jingning didn't pretend anymore, she simply opened her eyes.

The target was a black shadow that was completely different from the previous one, but the sky was weak, so it could only be seen that the figure was very tall, and no more useful clues could be obtained.

Su Jingning hugged the quilt and sat up, forced herself to be calm and said, "I don't know why the chivalrous man came late at night?"

But the black shadow let out a muffled laugh again, his night vision was extremely strong, and his vision was much clearer than Su Jingning's.

At this moment, the little girl in front of her spoke calmly but her expression was tense, she was staring at herself with her lips tightly pursed, and her hands hidden under the quilt were unnaturally crossed, obviously ready to draw out the murder weapon at any time. He comes on.

It's really a little wild cat!

"Has Miss Su always called others chivalrous?" He asked with a smile.

Su Jingning was taken aback when she heard the words, what does this mean?
She looked at the black figure in front of her calmly, the outline was somewhat familiar, and her voice was also hoarse and deep...

With a flash of inspiration, she suddenly realized: "It's you!"
