Zheshu

Chapter 8 Kill
It was late at night, and Su Mu's mansion became extremely quiet.

Sang Rou looked at Ji Wuhuan, who was concentrating on reviewing military documents with a stern expression, and stopped her hand rubbing ink: "I'm afraid she won't be able to escape tonight."

Ji Wuhuan didn't lift her eyes: "Want to be the king's woman, this is her destiny."

Sang Rou gave him a distressed look: "Is that why they can't tolerate you?"

His hand paused slightly, but he put away the military book, and said indifferently, "It's getting late, go down and rest, if she lives until tomorrow, I'll report back."

Sang Rou still wanted to say something, but watched him leave, after all, she sighed.

At this moment in the Autumn Grass Garden, Shen Qing didn't sleep, remembering the poison sent by Yuan Ning'er and King Huainan who had left before, she knew that tonight was the most dangerous.

Ziyuan still didn't like to talk to her, so she made a small bedding and went to sleep. Shen Qing sat on the haystack, looking at the medicine bottle in her hand, until the sound of cautious footsteps came from outside the house.

She raised her eyes vigilantly, looked at the sleeping Ziyuan, held back the pain, and carefully hid in a corner.

Taking advantage of the weak light outside the house, she vaguely saw a misty smoke sticking in. After a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Princess, are you resting?"

Shen Qing looked at the bottle in her hand, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

The people outside waited for a while, but when there was no sound, they tentatively opened the door.They searched in the dark room and found someone sleeping soundly under the quilt. They thought it was Shen Qing, and said, "Here."

"Did you fall asleep?"

"Ah."

After confirming, they clapped their hands, and another person walked in outside, but this person seemed to be much stronger, and it was a man's voice when he spoke.

"Are you watching me do it here?" The man smiled lewdly.

The two women scolded 'shameless', then walked out with a smile, and even locked the door tightly.

Seeing that the man had left, he couldn't wait to take off his clothes, but he didn't know that there was a ghostly figure approaching behind him.

Shen Qing quietly walked to the door, and locked the door from the inside, while the man was excitedly picking Ziyuan's clothes on the ground, without hearing the slightest sound behind him.

Just when he was getting ready, a cold voice came from behind: "Do you want to die?"

Hearing this, he turned around abruptly, but before he could see the person behind him clearly, he hit him hard on the head with a stick.

The mother-in-law outside the house heard the noise and hurriedly opened the door to come in, but found that the door had been locked.

The two looked at each other, their eyes were slightly cruel, and they directly pulled out the fire pocket from their waists, and without thinking about it, they ignited the crumbling house.

The man in the room covered his forehead and wailed, he didn't notice the fire outside, he only wanted to kill Shen Qing, he slammed into him hard, Shen Qing narrowly escaped, and said coldly: "Who sent you here?"

"Don't you know who you offended?" The man raised his eyes to meet Shen Qing's fierce eyes, trembling, surprised how she could have such eyes at such a young age.But before he could recover, Shen Qing had already kicked him on the chin. After he closed his eyes in pain, he took a few steps forward, removed his chin neatly, and poured the whole bottle of medicine into it.

"Yuan Ning'er?" Shen Qing said lightly.

The man stared at Shen Qing viciously, and before he could raise his hand to pinch her, his hair was bleeding from all his orifices.

The fire outside spread with the cold wind.

Shen Qing originally thought that they just wanted to frame her, but she didn't want to directly burn herself to death. It seems that Dayan's gang miscalculated the courage of the people in Su Mu's mansion.

She looked at Zi Yuan who was sleeping in the corner, and then at the dead man, blood flashed in her eyes.

The fire ignited, and the Autumn Grass Courtyard became bustling immediately. The nurse in charge directly ordered to surround the Autumn Grass Courtyard and strictly investigate the arsonists instead of saving them.

Looking at this small dilapidated courtyard, she couldn't believe that Shen Qing could escape Miss Ning'er's tricks this time!
