Chapter 1117

At night when the moon was dark and the wind was high, the guards of the Chen family were drowsy. They were exhausted from facing the people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty one by one during the day. At this moment, it was already late at night, and they couldn't stand it any longer. , but in a short while, all of them fell down and fell asleep.

A black figure flashed across the backyard, but in the blink of an eye, the person had disappeared in the backyard and went straight to the wing room, and in this moment, no one even noticed that someone had broken in.

The black figure came to one of the wing rooms familiarly, looked around, saw that no one had noticed, opened the window carefully, jumped in, and the window was closed again.

There was only the light of a candle flickering in the room. The man in black pulled out a dagger from his waist. The dagger looked even more eerie and strange under the light of the candle. The man in black approached the bed step by step. When he saw the sleeping face of the person on the bed, his eyes were full of smiles. He raised the gleaming dagger and moved towards the person on the bed. Seeing that the dagger was about to stab the person on the bed, the black clothes The man's backhand pointed the dagger at the neck of the sleeping man on the bed.

The coolness from the neck woke up the already asleep person immediately, and slowly opened his eyes. When he saw the man in black, a surprised expression flashed across his face. He looked down and saw the A shining dagger.

"As expected of the old lady of the Chen family, she doesn't change her expression when she puts the dagger on her neck." The man in black couldn't help but admire.

The person sleeping on the bed was none other than the old lady of the Chen family.

"If you wanted to kill me, you would have done it long ago, why wait for me to wake up."

The man in black withdrew his dagger, took advantage of the opportunity and sat down on the low stool next to him, crossing his legs, as if he didn't come here, but came here as a guest.

The old lady sat up, tightened the thin clothes on her body, and looked sharply at the man in black, "Aren't you afraid that I will call someone from outside?"

The man in black shrugged his shoulders, "If you want to scream, you did it just now, will you wait until now?"

The old lady lifted the quilt, put on her shoes, got up, and put on a dress for herself, then sat down on the low stool next to the child, and poured a cup of tea, which was brewed by the girl before going to bed. Just in case she got up to drink tea in the middle of the night, she touched the teacup, um, just right.

Pass it to the man in black, "Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"

In the middle of the night, a man in black broke into the Chen's house, which was currently full of disputes. If he didn't kill people for revenge, he was definitely trying to negotiate a deal with her.

The man in black picked up the teacup, only to realize that he was covering his face at the moment, and he put down the teacup in embarrassment, "The old lady is really smart, let me tell you the truth, this time I am here to represent my master to have a talk with the old lady. Business."

"Oh, let's hear it." The corner of the old lady's mouth was raised, but the expression on her face didn't look like she was smiling.

The man in black changed his foot and straightened his wrinkled clothes a little bit before he said slowly, "The current situation of the Chen family, the old lady understands better than anyone else, if you don't rely on the strength of others I'm afraid that the Chen family will not be able to gain a foothold in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The Taifu passed away early, and the old lady supported the Chen family with a woman's family. I am willing to cooperate with my master."
