The fifth lady against the sky

Chapter 179 To the Fox (2)
The man in black glared at Ouyang Yanniang angrily, but it was a pity that the room was too dark, and the expression on the man in black's face that he wanted to eat Ouyang Yanniang was naturally not seen by Ouyang Yanniang.

Wuyou moved the sword in his hand closer to the man in black's neck, and said coldly: "Who is your master? I told you that I can let you die quickly."

The man in black stiffened, and when he heard Wuyou's words, he sneered and said, "I'm going to die anyway, I won't betray my master. If you want to find out who is my master from me, it's a dream!"

Wuyou slightly moved the sword in his hand, and a small gash was instantly cut on the neck of the man in black, blood flowed out from the knife edge, "I have always admired those who protect the Lord loyally, but you shouldn't, you shouldn't!" It's time to attack the young lady again and again."

At this time, Ouyang Yanniang had already lit the coal lamp in the house.Just as Wuyou was about to give acupuncture to the man in black, the man in black threw a mist bomb in the room while the candle was on, and escaped through the window.

Feng Muxie and Wuyou, who were lurking in the grass, saw the man in black flying out of the window, and used lightness skills to escape all the way.Wuyou in the house also flew out of the window, ready to chase the man in black.

Feng Muxie saw Wuyou flying out with a sword in hand, and shouted: "Wuyou, don't chase after."

Wuyou stopped and said in surprise, "Miss, why didn't you chase after?"

Feng Muxie stretched her waist, and said with a thief smile: "The man in black has been discovered, and he will definitely not go to see his master directly. He will definitely find a place to hide for a while and see his master only after making sure no one is following him. Let's Why stay awake in the middle of the night and let the cat catch the mouse."

Ouyang Yanniang also came out of the house at this time, knelt down in front of Feng Muxie with a pale face, and said sincerely: "Thank you for saving my life, Miss Wu. I used to be deceived by the lard of my concubine and committed something wrong. Miss Fifth saved my concubine regardless of past suspicions, and I will eat fast and chant Buddha in the future, and pray for Miss Fifth every day." At this time, Ouyang Yanniang did not want to hide the reason for poisoning Feng Muxie, and repented from the bottom of her heart own fault.

Feng Muxie looked at the stars in the night sky, squinted her eyes, and said in a deep voice: "My aunt is finally willing to tell the truth. I didn't pursue your lies yesterday because of my aunt's willingness to surrender. Today, my aunt has this Awareness is willing to tell the truth, it seems that my aunt really knows her mistake. As my aunt said, you can eat fast and chant Buddha in the yard in the future, and you don’t need to pray for me and pray for third brother.”

Ouyang Yanniang was shocked. It turned out that Fifth Miss had already seen that she was flustered yesterday, and now she didn't know how to describe the feeling in her heart. Seeing Feng Muxie was about to leave, Ouyang Yanniang said anxiously: "Fifth Miss, tell me The concubine wiped the self-immolation powder on that person, and the concubine has already wiped it on." In fact, Ouyang Yanniang wanted to ask why she didn't continue to chase that person.

Feng Muxie smiled, and said with an undisguised smile: "Sister Wuyou, tomorrow I will find out whose house caught fire and burned someone to death. Maybe there will be unexpected surprises. Let's go, go to bed."

When Wuyou thought that the man in black would be burned alive, most of the sullenness in his heart disappeared.

In other words, the escaped man in black did not go directly to the prime minister's mansion as Feng Muxie said, but hid in a small courtyard in a remote section of the capital.The owner of the yard is an old couple who are nearly fifty years old, and the yard is only a half-new and not old three-entry yard, and there are only a few servants in the whole yard.

There are more than a dozen rooms in the three-entry courtyard, and people come to clean them every day, but the owner of each room does not come to live very often.Of course, these rooms belonged exclusively to the prime minister’s subordinates. The high-level leaders had single rooms, the middle-level leaders had double rooms, and the lowest-level leaders had quadruple rooms. Of course, those without leadership titles lived in the warehouse at the back of the building.

And the man in black tonight is considered a high-ranking person under the prime minister's leadership, and was directly ordered by the prime minister himself. The prime minister handed over the poisoning of Feng Muxie to a senior person in charge, which shows how much this old man attaches importance to Feng Muxie.

The man in black walked into his exclusive room, lit the oil lamp, spread the quilt and prepared to rest. Before he took off his night clothes, suddenly a line of fire was formed between his back and the fire, and his back was ignited like an explosion. fire.Before the man in black understood what was going on, he felt a crackling sound coming from his back, and the air smelled of scorching.

Because the man in black came in the middle of the night, he didn't notify the people in the yard at all, so there was no water in the house, so he had to roll on the ground to put out the fire on his back.But he didn't see that he could vaguely see the bones inside his back.The man in black couldn't stand the piercing pain in his back, and passed out as soon as he hit the ground in a circle. It is conceivable that the man in black was burned to death.The room was also set on fire. When the house was found on fire, it was useless to put out the fire with water, and it burned down with several surrounding rooms.

After the fire was extinguished, people found the body of the man in black in the room, but the face of the body was beyond recognition.When moving the corpse to clear the ruins, the token was found from the ruins not far from the corpse of the man in black.The token is the identity symbol of the man in black in the prime minister's dark guard, and the man in black is in his own exclusive room.The identity of the burnt man in black was confirmed by the people in the yard.

In other words, the Prime Minister woke up in the morning and did not see An Qi, the man in black, coming to report the news of the investigation, so he went to the court full of doubts.After the morning court, he still hadn't waited for An Qi to come, and he had a vague premonition in his heart.Just about to send someone to look for An Qi, when I received the news from An Qi that An Qi was burned to death in another courtyard last night, I was very surprised, this fire must be man-made, otherwise how could I be burned with the help of An Qi die.The prime minister was sure that it was man-made, and it was likely that the people from the General Zhen Guo's mansion discovered his whereabouts.However, what puzzled the prime minister was that since his whereabouts were discovered, he would naturally find out that the yard was not an ordinary yard, so why didn't the people in the general's mansion check that yard.

In other words, although this yard is in a sparsely populated area.However, the fire that lasted for two hours last night was still seen by some people.Although this seemingly ordinary incident has no value for discussion among people above the middle class, this kind of low-level gossip will also be regarded as low-style gossip by the middle and upper classes, and they will not bother to discuss it. .And this kind of gossip without value content is a hot topic among the lower classes.The fire incident has become the main topic of the low-class people's chatting today to pass the time.
