Chapter 1630 There are strange things at night
The night was dark. Although the sky was singing and dancing to the sky palace because of the birthday ceremony, Wuping Prefecture City had already quieted down. The high-ranking officials and gentry in the city had rushed to the Heaven Palace to celebrate the emperor's birthday. Although the streets and alleys in Wuping Prefecture City were decorated with lights and colorful colors, and it was a festive atmosphere, after dark, not many people actually celebrated the emperor's birthday on the street.
In the past few years, in order to build the Heavenly Palace, Hexi has mobilized more than 100,000 people, and the taxes have increased. It is undoubtedly a disaster for the people of Hexi to support the construction of such a huge palace. Although lights and colors are everywhere in the city under the order of the government, the people really have no joy in the emperor's birthday. Instead, many people secretly cursed the emperor for a disaster that has been ruined for thousands of years.
Of course, the merchants in Hexi also bleed a lot. When the emperor stayed in Hexi Tiangong, he was not as happy as the emperor stayed in Hexi, but was more and more distressed.
The news of many people is not lagging behind. The news of the fall of the capital has already spread everywhere. Many people in Hexi already know that the fall of the capital has been understood. The emperor may have to stay in Hexi for a long time. Without the capital, the emperor cannot return, so he can only stay in Hexi. The emperor stays in Hexi, of course, not good news for the upper and lower parts of Hexi. The royal cost has always been extremely luxurious. These expenses are not enough to be conquered from Hexi. Although the people of Hexi are of great harm, the wealthy and gentry in Wuping Prefecture must also have great bleeding.
There was also silence in the Governor's Mansion.
In the courtyard where Mei Niang was house arrested, it was silent at this time. The lights were lit in the house. When it was late at night, Ding A-san led a doctor to the outside of the courtyard in the dark. The main entrance was two soldiers guarding. Before he could speak, Ding A-san had already said, "The girl inside was sick. The master said that she could not be allowed to die, so he invited the doctor to see the doctor..." Speaking of this, looking at one of the soldiers, the soldier nodded slightly and was about to let him go, but the other soldier had already frowned and said, "The Governor has an order that no one is allowed to enter the yard except for letting you deliver food every day..."
Ding Asan said: "Of course I know, but the girl inside is very sick. Wouldn't you ignore it? If the master comes back and the person dies of illness by then, who should be responsible?"
The soldier was about to speak, and another soldier had already whispered: "It's okay to let him in and take a look. We will stay here, and we can't get away. If we die of illness, we will be affected by it."
The soldier hesitated for a moment, and finally waved his hand and signaled the two of them to go in.
Ding A-san led the doctor into the yard, and then he whispered to the doctor: "Take a good doctor to treat the girl, you have a lot of money, but when you go out, don't talk nonsense, otherwise you won't have any good results."
Although he was just a servant from the Governor's Office, the doctor was quite afraid and even claimed that he was.
The door of the house was closed, Ding A-san pushed the door open and saw the lights lit in the house. Mei Niang leaned on the bed, looking soft and weak, signaling the doctor to wait by the door, and stepped forward lightly. Seeing Mei Niang's back facing outward, she seemed to be asleep. She glanced at Mei Niang's curved figure from behind, and then shouted softly: "Miss, are you asleep?"
He saw Mei Niang's delicate body move slightly, and he turned around with difficulty. Under the light, Ding A San saw Mei Niang's face with half of the mask, which was extremely charming. Seeing that her beautiful eyes were tilting, Ding A San felt his heart swayed and said, "Girl, I'll invite you to the doctor. How do you feel at the moment?"
Mei Niang smiled sweetly and said, "Brother Ah, thank you...!" Seeing the doctor who was waiting outside the door with wide robes and big sleeves, she hurriedly said, "Brother Ah, please invite the doctor in..."
Ding A-san then turned around and waved, "Please come in and treat the girl quickly..."
The doctor walked into the house with the medicine box on his back. Ding A-san was very thoughtful. He went over to close the door, and then came over and smiled at Mei Niang, "Don't worry, this doctor Hu is a famous doctor in Wuping Mansion. As long as he takes action, the girl will definitely cure the disease...!"
The doctor hurriedly said, "I dare not!" He put down the medicine box, walked to the edge of the couch, and asked, "What makes the girl feel uncomfortable?"
Mei Niang whispered: "I just feel weak all over...!" She actually stretched out a jade arm that was so powerful that it was swollen and snowy. "Does the doctor want to help me take my pulse?"
Seeing this, the doctor pulled over a small round stool next to him and sat down. Of course, Ding A-san would not regard himself as an outsider at this time, so he came close and instructed: "Doctor Hu, just treat the girl, and say whatever you need!"
The doctor just nodded, rolled up his sleeves, stretched out his fingers, and then threw his hand toward Mei Niang's hand. As soon as he met, he saw Mei Niang suddenly tucked her backhand and actually grabbed the doctor's hand. The doctor and Ding A San didn't react at all, but he saw that Mei Niang, who was originally weak and weak, had already turned over from the couch like a colorful phoenix, and grabbed the doctor's hand with one hand, and two fingers with the other hand. There was a silver light between the two fingers, and it was still inserted into a hole on the doctor's neck.
The doctor didn't snort, and then he fell to the ground. Ding A-san was stunned and grew up, then felt his throat tightening. Mei Niang's hand had already pinched his throat.
Ding A San's soul was scattered, and his eyes were filled with horror and fear, but Mei Niang smiled charmingly and said softly: "Brother A San, as long as you don't yell, there will be nothing wrong. Are you obedient?"
Ding Asan nodded vigorously, and Mei Niang smiled and said, "That's good, I want to ask you a question. If you can tell your little sister, you will definitely be grateful for your great kindness..."
"Girl... What do girls want to know?" Ding A San didn't expect that a flower that was originally weak instantly turned into a pink Shura.
...
...
Xia Ye was quiet. The two soldiers guarding outside the door waited for a while and then saw two figures coming from the yard. Ding A-san was walking in front, and the doctor was following behind.
When he got closer, a soldier had already asked, "How is it? Isn't it a big deal?" As he spoke, Ding A-san and the doctor were already coming back.
Ding A-san and the doctor both lowered their heads. At this time, they had already walked to the door. A soldier suddenly frowned and said in a deep voice: "No, raise his head..." Before he could finish speaking, "Ding A-san" was bullied like a ghost. Before the soldier could speak more, he had inserted a silver needle into the man's neck with his fingers. Another soldier knew that something was wrong and was about to shout, but he saw that the doctor actually picked up the medicine box with both hands and smashed it hard on the soldier's head before the soldier could scream.
In the blink of an eye, the two soldiers were immediately put on the ground. "Ding A San" turned to look at the doctor and whispered: "Qi Hong, pull them into the yard..."
The "Doctor" nodded, and under the stars, it was Qi Hong.
Qi Hong quickly pulled the two of them into the yard, then went out and brought the yard gate, then asked softly: "Madam, what should we do next?"
"Madam" is naturally Mei Niang dressed as "Ding A San" and said softly: "I already know from Ding A San that soldiers are guarding all around the Governor's Office. It is not easy to break out with you and me..."
Qi Hong whispered: "I will definitely be a guard of the wife, and I will try my best to protect the wife and leave."
Mei Niang shook her head and chuckled, "The Governor's Mansion is surrounded by elite soldiers patrolling and guarding. When we go out like this, they can easily find out... Since this is the case, we naturally cannot force ourselves to break in. We can take us away..."
"What does Madam mean?"
Mei Niang looked around, her eyes turned to the east, and she whispered: "Feng Yuan broke through the Heavenly Palace and took away many masters in the mansion. There were not many truly powerful characters in the mansion... pack up the medicine box, and follow me..."
In the night, Mei Niang and Qi Hong moved to the east of the Governor's Mansion like ghosts. The Governor's Mansion was very quiet at night, and patrol guards appeared from time to time.
Not long after, Mei Niang saw a vermilion yard in front of her. A smile appeared in her charming eyes. She looked back and whispered: "It's this...!"
"here it is?"
"This is Feng Yuanpo's main residence. On weekdays, Feng Yuanpo is mostly resting here." Mei Niang whispered: "Others can't protect us, Feng Yuanpo's wife should have a way!"
Qi Hong understood, "Does the lady want to catch Feng Yuanpo's wife first and then use her to cover us out of here?"
Mei Niang smiled softly, without saying much, and walked around the courtyard and climbed over the wall. She had already learned about the geographical situation of this area from Ding A-san's mouth, and also knew the layout of the East Courtyard. When she entered the courtyard, she was silent. Without much effort, she touched outside a rather gorgeous residence. She confirmed that there was no one around, approaching like a ghost, and searched around the house carefully, then she approached the window of the main room, poked a hole in the window paper, and looked inside from the hole. The room was silent, and a large bed was placed in the middle, very dark, and she couldn't see the scene inside.
Mei Niang took off a silver hairpin from her head, stuffed it into the gap in the window, touched the window bolt, and gently picked it open the window bolt and gently pushed it open.
When Qi Hong saw this, he couldn't help but think that this lady is worthy of being from the world and is familiar with these slutty methods in the world.
Mei Niang didn't look back, but just whispered, "You're watching outside!" Without waiting for Qi Hong to say more, she floated into the room lightly and skillfully like a bird of swallows.
Qi Hong sighed secretly, but soon became full of vigilance and was careful. After all, this place was the Governor's Mansion, and no one knew whether the Governor's Mansion had eyes hidden in it.
Mei Niang entered the house and when she landed on the ground, she quietly said that her weapons had been taken away. There were only a few silver needles hidden on her body. She held a silver needle with her two fingers and walked lightly, approaching the big bed in the house.
In fact, she felt a little strange.
She sneaked in and checked outside. According to common sense, the living room of such a high-ranking official family is very particular. Generally speaking, even if she has a status like Mrs. Feng, even if she rests in the inner room, there will inevitably be maids on duty at night to facilitate serving at night. However, Mei Niang discovered that there were no servants in the outer room of Mrs. Feng’s living room, and there was only one bed in the inner room. It seemed that Mrs. Feng did not need servants to serve at night.
She walked lightly to the edge of the bed and found that the curtain was hanging, and there was no sleeper on the bed. Mrs. Feng didn't seem to be resting here. Mei Niang frowned and thought, "Ding A-san was so bold that she dared to deceive herself." Suddenly, she heard a slight movement from the corner. Mei Niang looked up and saw an ancient wooden screen slanted on the corner of the room. The screen made of ancient wood was extremely delicate, but not transparent, just like an exquisite partition.
Mei Niang heard the movement coming from behind the screen, and she was alert, her beautiful eyes turned cold, and she waited for a while but didn't hear any other movement, so she walked lightly closer to the past.
Bypassing the screen, Mei Niang discovered that behind the screen was a wall, but there was a huge landscape picture hanging on the wall. In the darkness, she could only vaguely see the mountain lake on the painting. What kind of picture was, but she couldn't see clearly. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
Mei Niang frowned and was a little confused. Then she fought with her eyebrows, and a sneer appeared on her red lips. She thought in an instant that if nothing unexpected happened, there would be something wrong with this wall.
The ancient wooden screen has obviously been placed here for a long time. If this exquisite and luxurious ancient wooden screen is used as a place to change clothes, it is understandable. However, there is only a wall behind the screen, which is obviously a bit strange. If Feng Yuan said that the luxurious and extravagant and just placed this screen here as a decoration, it would be explained. But since there is an exquisite ancient wooden screen here, why would a painting be hung on the wall behind the screen?
There is no doubt that with an ancient wooden screen, this painting cannot be seen at all. If it is said to be to decorate the wall, it is obviously a waste of time. If you wear the most gorgeous colorful dress in the world, you will have to wear a wide robe and big shirt outside.
Mei Niang walked lightly close to the wall, her eyes flashed. She was born in the world and saw many strange things. She understood something in her heart. She raised her hand and was about to hit the wall. She saw if there was another mystery on the wall. Suddenly she thought of something, put down her arm, her cheeks were close to the wall, and listened with her ears.
