Chapter 159: Thieves
Pan Jie couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw the prince's thoughtful look, could it be that Li Siyu's purpose of going to Ouyang Chengming's house was not simple?
He said, "What is the master worried about? ”
His master had always been very clever and could think of many things he could not have imagined.
The prince said: "I just think it's strange why she went to Ouyang Chengming's house at this time." ”
He would never believe what she said, she was going there to accompany Cao Xiuling, because her current focus was not on Cao Xiuling at all. He knew that she had always wanted to avenge the Cao family. When she went to Ouyang Chengming's house at this time, she must have felt that the Ouyang family had something to do with the Cao family.
The prince had a bad premonition in his heart, and he always had a feeling of being calculated.
He said to Pan Jie: "Check the matter of Cao Mansion again, and then check Ouyang Chengming to see if he has anything to do with this matter." ”
When he first intercepted Cao Hou's letters to the generals in the outer city, the prince still thought it was strange, how could Cao Hou rebel? But anyway, this is a good opportunity to deal with quarrels, the prince has always wanted to deal with the Cao family, but there has never been such an opportunity. Now that the opportunity is in front of him, how could he miss it? So even though he knew that the authenticity of this matter needed to be investigated, he still quickly attacked and launched an investigation of the Cao family along that line, and then searched for evidence of the Cao family's rebellion in the Cao family. Although he felt that this matter was full of loopholes, the Cao family was obviously framed. But how could he let go of the opportunity to cut off King Heng's arm? So he didn't hesitate to serve the Cao family.
Afterwards, he felt that the matter was very smooth, of course, it was possible that it was because of his quick action. Even King Heng only appeared at the last moment, although he saved Cao Xue, he couldn't save the Cao family.
However, he didn't quite understand who had such a deep hatred with the Cao family. He framed them in this way. He is an understanding person, so he understands that it is impossible for Cao Hou to unite with the generals outside the city to launch a mutiny to support King Heng on the throne. The Cao family must have been framed.
Pan Jie frowned, "Could it be that the master suspects that Ouyang Chengming did this matter?" ”
Pan Jie said this naturally because he thought of going together with the crown prince, and he also knew that it was impossible for Cao Hou to launch a mutiny and rebel. There is something wrong with this matter in itself.
The prince said: "Anyone can be the object of suspicion before the matter is clarified. However, this Ouyang Chengming is more suspicious, because he has been a bit abnormal recently. ”
Pan Jie understood what the prince meant by the abnormality, Ouyang Chengming's relationship with the prince was not very good before, but now he took the initiative to get close to the prince and became the prince's party. How do you think about it, how do you think this thing is weird. Of course, it can't be said to be weird, but it is too sudden.
The prince remembered the last time he met Ouyang Chengming and Xiaoyu in Qiushui Pavilion, and there seemed to be some dispute between them at that time. Finally, there is the problem solved by the game of guò. But he remembered that they didn't know each other very well at the campfire dinner, and it stands to reason that there would be no disputes between them, so how could they meet alone to solve the problem by winning or losing the chess game?
He said to Pan Jie again: "Check the matter between Ouyang Chengming and Xiaoyu, the more detailed the better." ”
Pan Jie thought for a moment and nodded.
For the arrival of Li Siyu. Cao Xiuling was still happy on the surface. However, she was a little worried in her heart, because Li Siyu was impeccable in terms of beauty and IQ, and she knew that Ouyang Chengming liked such a woman. He already had a heart for her, in fact, she understood that the reason why he accompanied her to the prince's mansion was to see her, but she had been numbing herself, saying that he would go to accompany her.
She knew that Ouyang Chengming hadn't forgotten about Xiaoyu, otherwise he wouldn't have stopped pampering her because Mu Xiangling was in trouble with Xiaoyu. even ignored her.
In the dead of night, Li Siyu changed into a night suit. Quietly walked out of his room. During the day, she found out the layout of Ouyang's house clearly. So there was no detour, and I went directly to Ouyang Chengming's study.
Ouyang Chengming's study was actually locked, which made her feel a little surprised. I didn't expect this Ouyang Chengming to be such a careful person. However, the study is locked, which shows that there are important things in Ouyang Chengming's study.
Li Siyu didn't have the ability to pick locks with her bare hands, so she planned to find another opportunity to enter the study to find out.
"There are thieves! Catch the thief! ”
A shout broke the silence of the night. Li Siyu thought that his whereabouts had been discovered, but he could tell that the sound was coming from somewhere else, as if it was Ouyang Shangshu's courtyard. She secretly screamed in her heart that she was unlucky, and now she probably had to be affected by this thief.
Li Siyu didn't have time to think about it, and ran back to her room as fast as she could, but fortunately, everyone was attracted to Ouyang Shangshu's courtyard, so she didn't meet anyone along the way. When she got back to her room, she changed her clothes as quickly as she could.
As soon as he changed his clothes, he heard a knock on the door, Li Siyu put down his hair, put a coat on his body, and went to open the door with sleepy eyes.
"Who, it's a big night, can't you find me tomorrow if you have something?"
Ouyang Chengming felt that her lazy appearance was very charming, and her eyes were shining, "I'm sorry to disturb your rest." ”
Li Siyu frowned and half-leaned against the door, "Ouyang Gongzi came to visit late at night, is there something wrong?" ”
Ouyang Chengming said: "There are thieves in the house, I'm worried about you, so come and take a look." He gasped, apparently in a hurry.
"Thief?" Li Siyu was completely sleepy, "Where is it?" Who would dare to come to Shangshufu to steal something? "This thief came by coincidence.
Ouyang Chengming said: "It should be on my father's side, I'll go over and take a look now." You close the doors and windows, but never open them. ”
As soon as he heard that there was a thief in the house, he didn't have time to think about it, the first thought was to come and see her, and when he saw that she was okay, he thought about catching the thief.
Li Siyu looked outside cautiously, as if he was afraid that the thief would suddenly come out, "Don't worry, I will close the doors and windows." Go and see Xiuling, she's pregnant, and she can't be frightened. ”
Li Siyu didn't expect him to come to see her as soon as possible, she was secretly glad that she came back in time. She didn't think that Ouyang Chengming came to see her because he cared about her, she thought that he suspected that the thief was her, so he rushed over as soon as possible.
She understood that if the matter of Cao Mansion was really related to Ouyang Chengming, he would definitely guard against her. She suddenly came to Ouyang Mansion, and as soon as she came to Ouyang Mansion, she was a thief, he didn't doubt it.
Ouyang Chengming was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Okay." ”
He said this good word very reluctantly. Obviously, he didn't plan to see Cao Xiuling.
After Ouyang Chengming left, Li Siyu did not close the door, but thought at the door that this person who came to Ouyang Mansion was really a thief? Then he was so bold. (To be continued.) )
