Chapter 6
Hong'er is a loyal servant girl, she must go there to save her!
Thinking of this, Sheng Wan didn't care about being afraid, and found a stick for hanging the bed curtain from the cabinet next to the bed, took it and carefully opened the door.

The small courtyard was quiet at this time, but fortunately there was still some moonlight, allowing her to see the outline of the courtyard wall.

Sheng Houmao walked out of the courtyard gate quickly, and there was a weeping willow diagonally opposite the courtyard gate, and to the right of the weeping willow was a large expanse of shiny water surface illuminated by the moon.

Sheng Hou was taken aback. Since there is a pond outside the small courtyard, it should be connected to the pond behind her house. She immediately looked to the end of the courtyard wall on the right, and she saw a small garden in the distance. The outline of the bridge, she hurried across.

The end of the courtyard wall does not reach the edge of the pond, but forms a circular arch on the water surface across it, and the courtyard wall extends forward for tens of meters, which feels like the pond is deliberately introduced into the courtyard Seems like.

No wonder the corridor in her small courtyard seemed to be blocked up later.When the courtyard was first built, the corridor should have led to the pond at the back, but for some unknown reason, the corridor was blocked to separate the pond.

Sheng Yu guessed in her mind that she had already passed the small bridge, and saw a door appearing on the wall one or two meters away, but she walked over and saw that the door was half open.

She walked in cautiously, and as soon as she entered, she saw a nearly circular pond. In the quiet night, the water surface was glowing with silver light, and the wooden corridor around the pond, she saw standing in the water from a long distance. Two black humanoid silhouettes opposite her!
They didn't seem to notice her coming in.

After a burst of whimpering, the girl's terrified voice suddenly sounded, "My lord, spare my life! I beg my lord...forgive me! I will never dare to frame my side concubine again!"

"Whoever hurts her deserves to die, regardless of her in the past or the current Shenghou!" An indifferent female voice sounded next!

Sheng Wan couldn't react immediately, the voices of these two girls clearly belonged to Xiao Lu and Hong'er!

Why is Hong'er here?Prince Rui is also here? !

She was so curious by the information she discovered!

"My lord, how should I deal with it?" Hong'er asked coldly.

The figure that had been in the darkness stood there motionless, calmly looking at the woman lying on the ground with her hands and feet bound, and whispered two words, "As you wish."

"Thank you, my lord." Hong'er thanked inexplicably.

Just as Sheng Wan stretched his neck to look at the scene inside, there was only a 'plop' sound, and there was a slight ripple in the calm pool!
Goosebumps suddenly appeared on Sheng Wan's back!They are collaborating to kill people!

She took a step back nervously, but there were two crisp 'creaks' from her feet!
She accidentally stepped on some dry leaves!

She hurriedly prepared to run away, but at this moment, there was a cold and indifferent whisper from the opposite side!

"Who?"

Sheng Wan wanted to escape, but just turned around and trotted to the door, and then suddenly felt cold!
She trembled and said slowly, "This strong man, I came here by accident and didn't see anything..." As she spoke, her neck slowly turned back.

Just when she saw the outline of the man's face behind her, she opened her eyes wide in horror, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her neck, and then passed out!

When she woke up and before she fainted, Prince Rui's face was calm and unpredictable.

She had goosebumps all over her body.

"Ma'am, are you awake?"

The girl's crisp voice sounded, Sheng Wan turned his eyes and saw a red figure slowly approaching.

Sheng Wan reluctantly sat up from the bed. Seeing this, Hong'er rushed forward to help her, but she had already sat up leaning against the head of the bed, the corners of her mouth turned white, and she felt as weak as if her body had been hollowed out!
Hong'er hurried back, brought the wet towel in front of her, and said concernedly, "Niang Niang, wipe your face."

Sheng Wan secretly looked at Hong'er's every word and deed, and there was a hint of temptation in his eyes.

A person can pretend, but his voice cannot be changed.The people next to the pool last night were obviously Hong'er and Prince Rui!She didn't expect that the loyal Hong'er beside her secretly looked different.

"Hong'er, why am I here?" Sheng Wan took the towel, the temperature of the towel was just right, she asked while wiping her face with it.

The movement was soft and elegant.

A flash of pity flashed in Hong'er's eyes, and she said calmly, "This servant found your empress at the gate of the courtyard behind the pond. Why did you appear there in the middle of the night, empress?"

Sheng Yu was taken aback, this Hong'er actually lied in front of her, didn't she notice that she was peeping over there last night?

Thinking about this, she observed Hong'er's expression while talking, "I also heard some movement outside, and when I got up, I found you were not there, so I went to the pond behind to look for you... Hong'er, what did you do last night?"

Hong'er was also unambiguous, and said carefully, "The servant heard some noises outside last night and went out to have a look, and found that it was a cat. Thinking that it might disturb the empress to rest, she took some dried fish and lured it away. When I came back, I found that your mother was gone, so I searched everywhere, and finally found you fainted at the gate of the pond."

"You haven't seen other people?" Sheng Wan asked in surprise.

Hong'er shook her head, "No."

Sheng Wan lowered his eyes and said quietly, "I feel like I was knocked out by someone, and I don't know if it belongs to the princess."

When Hong'er heard this, a gloomy look flashed in her eyes. She knew what happened last night was broken by her, and she wanted to test it out, but she didn't want to, but she threw the topic out first, and blocked Hong'er's mouth.

This Tai Chi fight is false and real, making it difficult to distinguish between true and false!

"Ma'am, Xiaolu is dead."

Hong'er looked at Sheng Hou, and said slowly and quietly.

Sheng Yu was taken aback for a moment, and the corners of his lips curled up indifferently, "Didn't she have been killed by a stick long ago?"

Hong'er looked at Sheng Wan, and said in a mysterious and terrifying tone, "But this morning the housekeeper found her in the pond behind, and she was drowned."

"What!" Sheng Wan's eyes widened in shock, a little in disbelief.

In terms of acting skills, she was very good at fooling grandpa all those years ago.

Seeing her shocked face, Hong'er couldn't help comforting her in a low voice, "Your Majesty, you don't have to be afraid, this is karma! I heard that she did a lot of evil things for the princess! This is what God gave her. retribution!"

"Can you change the yard? It's unlucky to die in the backyard." She didn't ask this question on purpose, but she really felt very unlucky.

"Your Majesty, you have to ask the lord about this matter, you should rest first, and leave this matter to the servants." Hong'er hugged the washbasin in her arms again, and smiled at Sheng Hou.

Sheng Wan handed the towel to Hong'er and said calmly.

"It doesn't need a nice yard, as long as it's clean."

Xiaolu hurried out with the washbasin in her hand.

Sheng Wan leaned against the head of the bed, looked away, and fell into deep thought.

Although Xiaolu deserved what she deserved, she realized a problem: in ancient times, women had no status, and she could see that the princess wanted to get rid of her!Although she is not afraid of her, she doesn't like intrigue and being restricted by others!It's time to find a way to escape!

But recently, she always felt that something was wrong. It was as if a big net had surrounded her, making her feel oppressed wherever she went!
