Chapter 146: A Nightmare of Cutting Skin


Shen Yinqiu planned to let Wan Qiyan carry him for a while, but it was much more comfortable to be carried than walking by himself.

He yawned, his eyelids were heavy, and when he woke up, he was already in the courtyard of the Hou Mansion.

She was suddenly woken up from her sleep by the loud sound of an iron basin falling to the ground, and slowly came back to her senses while looking at the bed tent she was used to.

When she was wrapped in quilt and sitting up, Qianyun had already come in quickly from the door.

He was very annoyed when he saw her and said: "Master, you were woken up because we were not very good at handling the water basin. ” Shen Yinqiu looked at her for a while before sorting out the thoughts in her mind.

She was carried on Wan Qiyan's back, and then she probably fell asleep without any hope.

The room was filled with candlelight, and she couldn't tell how much time had passed. .

Qianyun knew that her master was quite confused when he just woke up, so he let her watch and quickly stepped forward to serve him.

Sure enough, after putting on his clothes and going to the ground, Shen Yinqiu replied: "I didn't wake him up, I was scared to wake him up."

Qianyun: "" "The prince carried me back."

Shen Yinqiu walked around the table.

Qianyun nodded sharply, "Yeah, the prince said that the master is tired and tired from playing outside, so he asked the slave to take good care of him."

"Don't make this kind of noise next time."

Shen Yinqiu felt upset when he thought of that clanging sound, so Qianyun naturally agreed: "I will teach the maids below to learn to be more careful."

Shen Yinqiu walked around the table three or four times.

Qianyun was so dizzy that she turned to go around the treasure shelf.

This shelf was filled with porcelain.

She had no research on these, so it didn't hinder her.

Watch.

"Where is the Crown Prince now?"

Qian Yun thought for a while and then said: "Master, after the prince sent you back, he went to the study in the West Pavilion."

Finally, he asked: "Master, are you hungry?

The kitchen has prepared food.

If you are hungry, you can eat it right away.

Serve it up.”

"I'm not hungry."

Shen Yinqiu felt irritated as he left, then walked to the painting screen and stood still, "What time is it now?

How long have I been back?"

"Master, it's Haishi now.

You've only slept for less than half an hour when you came back."

Qianyun said.

Hearing this, Shen Yinqiu hummed and walked straight towards the door.

But when she saw the water stains at the door, she thought of the lake on Fenghua Road, and then thought of the corpse.

Shen Yinqiu froze.

She raised her sleeves and sniffed.

It seemed that I could still smell the smell of corpses, and I couldn't bear it anymore.

She turned around and looked at Qianyun, and said with a serious face: "I want to take a bath."

Qian Yun just wanted to persuade her that bathing late at night was harmful to her health due to the cold weather, but she gave in within a second after seeing her firm eyes.

"Master, please wait for a moment.

I will ask the boy to boil the water first."

Shen Yinqiu thought deeply and asked in a low voice: "I heard last time that there is a hot spring pool in this mansion."

"Master, it's not a hot spring pool, it's a bathing pool."

Qianyun looked around and estimated, "That bathing pool can probably hold thirty or forty people."

Shen Yinqiu thought about it and found that it was not particularly spacious.

"I have to carry the water myself and put it in."

"It seems like that, so few people use that bathtub in winter."

Qianyun knew what his master wanted to do by looking at his expression, and tried his best to dispel her thoughts.

Taking a bath in that bathhouse so late, with her master’s body and bones, he would definitely be infected with the wind and cold, okay?

Shen Yinqiu hummed, "Then move to the room and take a bath, so you don't have to worry about them."

Of course they were referring to such young men.

Qianyun agreed with a sigh, and recruited two maids to come in to accompany her master, while she went down to do some work.

Shen Yinqiu sat back on the chair, and the two maids were smart enough to serve him tea immediately.

There was a smile on his face, and he was inexplicably attentive.

Shen Yinqiu held the tea instead of drinking it, and looked at these two maids.

They were beautiful and slim.

Naturally, she took a second look.

At this sight, the two maids lowered their heads shyly. she:"" The beauty trap was used in the wrong place.

It would be better to show this expression towards the prince.

But then I thought about it, it was useless for them to smile at the prince.

Seeing their faces turn red without using blush.

Shen Yinqiu then said: "What do you want to say?"

"Prince Princess, you are so beautiful."

"Yeah, it looks beautiful from a distance, but it's even more beautiful up close.

Thank you Sister Qianyun for giving me two slaves a chance to get close to the Crown Princess."

Shen Yinqiu almost spilled the tea.

Seeing the heat in their eyes, she was speechless.

What had she done?

Under these fanatical eyes, Shen Yinqiu decided to pretend not to see it.

Who knew what conspiracy they had.

Putting down the tea cup, she walked straight to the imperial concubine's bed, half-lyed down, picked up the storybook neatly placed on the chair, and slowly read through it with the light of the candlestick next to it.

It's still the book "Who's Behind You" that has a lot of mysteries.

Shen Yinqiu picked it up and immersed herself in it.

If the surroundings were usually too quiet, she would still be a little uncomfortable.

She wished that someone would chat with her and create some popularity.

Today, these two maids are too weird.

They always stare at her with secretly creepy eyes.

Every time she reads the script, it says, "There is a sound of dripping water, who is watching you from behind."

She would look up at the two maids who were five or six steps away from her, and her eyebrows would twitch unconsciously.

Shen Yinqiu took a deep breath and said, "You are not allowed to look at me.

Turn your back."

"Yes, Crown Princess."

You can already hear the grievances in their voices just by looking at the expressions on their faces.

Shen Yinqiu sighed, thinking that these two maids must have been beheaded.

Without being stared at, she picked up the book and continued reading.

Within a few breaths, she heard "The prince's concubine looks so elegant when she reads.

When she lowers her eyes, her eyelashes are so long and cast a shadow."

A maid whispered.

Shen Yinqiu Ren, don't look at it now.

It's night.

Can there be no shadows when lighting a candlestick?

Another maid echoed: "The look in her eyes when she looked over just now was so cute.

It's exactly what Sister Qingyan said.

She is a very gentle master who doesn't scold us."

You wanted to scold her, but you found her head.

Shen Yinqiu seemed to be reading the storybook, but in fact, he was listening to their words and felt thunder rolling from the sky.

She closed the storybook.

According to Qing Yan's generation, Qingye Qingzhu Qingyan should also be the person next to Wan Qiyan.

Very good.

Shen Yinqiu asked in a soft voice: "Who is the Qingyan you are talking about?"

The two maids turned around as soon as they heard Shen Yinqiu speak, their eyes sparkling and they said, "My dearest concubine, Qing Yan is the steward responsible for purchasing your daily belongings."

Shen Yinqiu thought that all her things were not purchased by Qianguang.

Thinking that she still had to go through the Qingyan layer, she glanced at the two maids who were standing upright.

"What did she say?"

"Sister Qingyan said that the prince's concubine is as gentle, elegant and beautiful as a fairy, and the bodhisattva has a heart that is good at helping others."

Shen Yinqiu: "Thank you."

It seems that giving those boys timely help can gain such a false reputation.

The two maids seemed to want to say something else, when they saw the door open, and Qianyun came in with a group of slaves from outside and settled behind the screen.

Shen Yinqiu waved to the two very enthusiastic maids to go down.

Her mind was not on this right now.

She dismissed the others, leaving only the familiar Qianyun waiting by her side.

After a quarter of an hour, Shen Yinqiu felt comfortable after taking a bath, and lay wrapped on the bed.

Quilt, she pushed back her previous plans to go out to find Wan Qiyan.

Qian Yun was embroidering a red girl on the side, paying attention to her master from time to time.

She suddenly remembered that every time the master went out, he would tell her about what happened outside.

Today was the Qian Lantern Festival, it was so lively but there was nothing to say.

She then thought about it, the master was brought back by the prince on his back, so she was very tired.

Shen Yinqiu closed his eyes and recalled what happened when he left the house tonight one by one in order.

The focus was on the young man selling lanterns.

He had an unremarkable appearance, but he had been looking at her for a long time since she appeared.

It felt like he knew her, but how could he recognize her while wearing a mask?

Because she had slept for a while before, even though it was already Haishi, she was not sleepy at all.

If she thought carefully about peeling off human skin, why would she only peel off the front, and wouldn't the back be more complete?

If it was for the evil purpose of making a lantern, the front Human skin has no advantage at all.

Shen Yinqiu really couldn't recognize whether the female corpse in the lake was Lian Xinyi's because she didn't have enough contact with her, so she looked like that.

The most important thing is that she doesn't even know the murderer's motive.

The night got darker and quieter, and Shen Yinqiu's head was about to explode.

When she opened her eyes again in a daze, she found that she was back in the village in the countryside.

It was the same dark night, the same swords and swords, but there was no Liu beside her anymore.

She wanted to run away but couldn't move.

She watched helplessly as the men in black walked towards her with blades in hand.

Anyway, the silver dagger made a long mark under her eyes and then went down her face.

Stinging pain swept through her, and blood flowed down her face.

She saw her miserable state in the pupils of the masked man in black, and a dense pain like snake and ant bites spread from her face.

Then she watched as her face slowly peeled off, turning into a bloody person.

"No, no, no, no," Shen Yinqiu suddenly opened his eyes.

Before she even opened her eyes, she was held in a cool embrace.

Shen Yinqiu smelled his unique smell, and her rapid heartbeat began to slow down.

"Why are you having nightmares?

Are you afraid?"

A slightly hoarse voice came from above her head.

Shen Yinqiu suddenly pushed the person in front of him away.

When he looked up, he saw that it was Wan Qiyan.

Wan Qiyan didn't feel any anger after being pushed away.

He looked at her with a pair of deep eyes and said, "It's okay."

Shen Yinqiu said in a dull voice, "It's okay, it's just a dream."

"I dreamed about last night's corpse."

Wan Qiyan raised his eyebrows with a hint of smile in his eyes.

"Huh, no, I dreamed of being chased by a man in black.

It really hurt when the knife hit me."

Shen Yinqiu saw the ridicule in his eyes and tried to separate the dream from the skinning case.

Sure enough, he must have hugged her just now to take advantage.

He was not really worried about her at all.

Even if he is not good down there, men can take advantage if they can.

She decided to keep a distance from him from today on:
