Traveling to the ancient harem

Changning Bofu.

After breakfast, Xu Rou lay on the couch with her hair loose. She had just washed her hair. The eldest girl Qiu Die stood behind the couch, holding a comb and slowly combing her hair. She squinted her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Miss, Nanny Li from the Madam's room is here to see you." The little maid outside stood at the door and reported.

"Come in." Xu Rou said with her eyes still closed, without raising her head. Li Ma Ma walked in and bowed respectfully: "Greetings, young lady."

"How's the progress of the investigation I asked you to send someone to do?" Xu Rou asked.

"I asked someone to inquire about it, and they said that the young master of the Huang family can no longer get out of bed, and it is only a matter of time before he loses his life." Nanny Li did not dare to be careless and answered respectfully.

"Haha." Xu Rou chuckled and said to herself, "Huang Zihong, Huang Zihong, please don't let me down. You have to endure for a few more days. You have to be worthy of the money... If you don't torture yourself to death, how can you be worthy of my calculations..."

Nanny Li wanted to lower her head to her feet. How could a servant like her hear such things? But since the young lady didn't ask her to leave, she didn't dare to leave. If she offended this young lady, it would really be fatal.

Xu Rou had said enough before she remembered her, "Go and ask around, it would be best if you can find out what miserable situation that person has. Also, ask someone to find out which nunnery that bitch Huang Ziye is in. She will be the next one to be killed." The people in the Huang family were very tight-lipped and they haven't found out anything yet.

"Yes, but we have to ask slowly. No one in the capital knows where she is." Nanny Li was afraid that she would urge her.

"That bitch." Xu Rou jumped up suddenly in anger. Qiu Die, who was combing her hair at the back, didn't expect her to jump up. Her long hair got tangled in the comb and several strands of hair were pulled out. Xu Rou screamed in pain and picked up the footstool beside her and hit Qiu Die on the head several times.

Qiu Die didn't dare to protect her head with her hands. She knew she couldn't move at this time. She would only stop after the young lady vented her anger.

Nanny Li watched the blood on Qiudie's head flowing down like a worm, and she trembled with fear. The blood quickly filled her eyes, and then flowed down again. Qiudie's body swayed, and slowly fell to the ground.

Xu Rou continued to hit him with the stool: "You bitch, you want to run away, run to the ends of the earth, I will find you, bitch, you are all bitches, Qiu Die, you bitch, why are you pretending." Seeing Qiu Die didn't move, she was even more furious: "Come here, drag her to the woodshed, and let her come in to serve you when she knows she is wrong."

Two servants ran in from outside, picked up Qiu Die, whose face was covered in blood and who was unconscious, without saying a word, and threw her into the woodshed.

Nanny Li looked at the blood on the ground and slowly retreated to the corner, trying hard to reduce her presence. If possible, she would have shrunk to the ground. The young lady was too scary.

"Get out." Seeing the ugly look on Li Ma's face, Xu Rou was so angry that she yelled viciously. This Li Ma was just like her own mother, timid and cowardly, neither of whom could be presentable.

Nanny Li crawled out of Xu Rou's yard and went to her room alone. She lay on the bed for a long time before she recovered. She didn't dare to tell the lady. If the young lady knew that she was talkative... She shuddered again. She couldn't think about it. It was too scary.

The Changning Earl's Mansion became quiet at night. Almost everyone had gone to sleep. Only a few dim lanterns were hung sporadically at several intersections. Huang Ye and Hong Dou covered their faces tightly with cloth, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed, and walked quickly through the mansion.

Suddenly, Huang Ye pulled Hong Dou to hide behind a nearby rockery. A team of four came from the front. They knew that they were the guards of Bo's mansion. When they walked away, two people came out from their hiding place.

"According to Qingyu'er, this should be the second room's place, and Tingfengju should be here." Huang Ye whispered to Hongdou. Qingyu'er found out that Xu Rou's courtyard was called Tingfengju.

"How about we catch someone and ask him?" Hongdou was also worried. It was pitch dark and there were so many courtyards that she didn't know which one was which.

"Idiot." Huang Ye knocked her head. "You're going to alert the enemy!" Hongdou touched her head and didn't dare to say anything.

The two of them searched from one courtyard to another. Fortunately, they had practiced in the nunnery at night, so they could still see the names of the courtyards clearly if they looked carefully.

The two of them searched for the main courtyard. Huang Ye guessed that given Xu Rou's status in the mansion, her courtyard should be nearby. Sure enough, after a while, the two of them saw a courtyard with the words "Tingfengju" written on the gate.

The two of them quietly climbed over the wall and went in. Tonight they were just exploring the way and were going to drug Xu Rou who was going to attend a literary gathering in a few days.

The yard was quiet. After determining the location of Xu Rou's dormitory and preparing to leave, Huang Ye suddenly stopped.

"Hongdou." She whispered in Hongdou's ear, "Did you hear that? There's a sound. It sounds like someone is humming." She had practiced internal energy earlier than Hongdou, so her hearing was exceptionally sharp.

Anko nodded, the voice was louder now so she could hear it.
