Chapter 171: Questioning Failed
Wei Zheng looked at Ling Yi coldly, as if he wanted to see some flaw in her face.
Lan's face was displeased: "What does Lord Wei mean by this?" β
Wei Zheng picked up the teacup, blew the tea leaves on the water, and said with a smile: "The principle of the lower officials is that they can't let go of any clue, because the truth is often found from a small place." Many people tend to ignore the small things and miss the truth. β
The meaning of these words couldn't be more obvious, he even suspected that the tragedy of Luoxia Yuan was related to the Ling Mansion.
Lan said angrily: "Lord Wei, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense."
What is the fuss about a child having a little quarrel, Lord Wei should not take it for granted because the emperor is pressing, and when he hears a little trouble.
The Ling Mansion is a hundred-year-old clan, don't we even have this little belly, because of a child's dispute, we do that kind of heartbreaking thing? β
Ling Shandao also said angrily: "Lord Wei, this official respects you as an honest person who enforces the law impartially, but you can't talk nonsense, if Lord Wei doesn't give this official an explanation, then I can only go to the emperor to ask for an explanation." β
Wei Zheng hurriedly put on a smile and apologized: "Lord Ling, don't be angry, the lower official is a straight temper, he can say whatever he wants, this is much better than those who bend their bowels."
I'm not suspicious of the Ling Mansion, it's just a routine. It was indeed because we found the husband who played the guard last night, and he saw Liang Yi running out of the back door of the Ling Mansion with his own eyes.
Liang Kai is the only person alive in Luoxia Yuan, that is, the only clue, so Xia Guan has to seize this clue to track it down.
The Ling Mansion is a century-old family, and the amount of mind and belly can not be compared with ordinary people. If there is something offended, please don't blame it. β
He kept saying that it was just a routine, and he laughed and apologized casually. It seems that if you deal with him, it will make Ling Mansion lose a hundred years of signboard.
Lan and Ling Shandao were both depressed, but they really couldn't find anything to refute, and if they argued again, they would seem to be stingy.
Lan glanced at Ling Yi.
Ling Yi laughed, and the laughter sounded crisp and lovely, well-behaved and cute. The words that could be said made Wei Zheng blush.
"Lord Wei is really a bold person, he speaks and does things based on his feelings. never brainstorming; Looking at things only on the surface and never thinking deeply about them is much easier to get along with than those who have a lot of fancy intestines and think about things all day long. β
Wei Zheng understood the sarcasm in her words, annoyed and embarrassed.
But Ling Yi is not even fourteen after all. It's just a child. The so-called children's words are unscrupulous, what the child says, if he cares, then he really has a ** share.
Lan's eyes sparkled at Ling Yi, and then said to Wei Zheng: "Lord Wei is straightforward, and our Ling Mansion naturally doesn't care.
Since some people say that they saw Liang Yi enter my Ling Mansion, it is better to let that person come out to confront him, our Ling Mansion has never had anything to do with Luoxia Yuan. How could he come to our Ling Mansion as the steward of Luoxia Garden? β
Ling Yi didn't wait for Wei Zheng to speak. continued to add: "Although Lord Wei disdains to use his brains in the world, sometimes he can't be too reckless.
Rampage does not improve efficiency, since the emperor has strict requirements for this matter, then Lord Wei should use his brain more than blindly like a headless fly.
A one-sided remark of a husband also made Lord Wei so convinced, so if someone who had an enmity with the Ling Mansion said that the person was killed by the Ling Mansion, wouldn't Lord Wei immediately want to start the emperor and say that the case was solved? β
Lan couldn't wait to give Ling Yi a thumbs up and force down the smile in his heart.
Even Ling Shandao couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, it was really uncomfortable not to smile.
Wei Zheng was sarcastic again, his face was a little unbearable, and he sneered: "Miss Ling is straightforward and quick-"
"Wei Da is straightforward and fast-talking, and I still have a lot to learn compared with adults."
Wei Zheng was speechless for a while, and he couldn't find anything to say.
In fact, Ling Yi was right, he did come recklessly today, and rushed forward without thinking about anything.
But he was also confused by that clue. Why did Liang Kai go to Lingfu? He himself didn't say that he had been to the Ling Mansion, if the Ling Mansion and Liang Qi had concealed this matter, then why should they hide it?
He wanted to get answers to these questions through the Ling Mansion, but now it seemed that his trip was in vain, and if the husband was telling the truth, then his move would obviously have caught the strings.
Wei Zheng sat on pins and needles, hesitated for a moment, and finally got up and hugged his fists and said: "Wei Zheng came abruptly today, disturbed, farewell." β
Ling Yi was surprised: "Lord Wei won't sit for a while?" Don't you have something else to ask? I also happened to have fresh snacks prepared. β
Wei Zheng was now afraid to talk to this smiling woman, and waved his hand again and again: "No, no, there is still official business, so I don't dare to stay." β
Ling Shandao asked Ling Chang to send Wei Zheng out.
There were only three people left in the house.
The Lan family asked Ling Shandao to go to work on herself first, and she went back to Lan Yuan with Ling Yi.
"Fusheng, are you hiding something from me?" Lan asked softly.
Ling Yi said blankly, "Why did grandmother say that?" I don't hide anything from my grandmother except that I sneak out every time I go out. β
Lan didn't believe it, and looked at him with disgust: "You don't know, does this incident have anything to do with you?" β
Ling Yi shook her head affirmatively: "How could I know about this, grandmother must not listen to them." β
"I also believe that you are a good boy and will definitely not be involved in this matter, I wonder that you are not an eventful child, why did you run out to embarrass Wei Zheng this time?" Lan Fox said suspiciously.
Ling Yi pouted dissatisfied: "He said that our family, can I get by in my heart?"
It's all a high-sounding excuse to say that he is straight-tempered, and he doesn't know that he is a pig's brain, if I don't remind him, I'm afraid he will really have to drill into this matter. β
Lan Shi was provoked by her to laugh, and patted Ling Yi's hand: "Okay, well, I have to say, your few words have gone to my grandmother's heart." β
Ling Yi shook her head proudly, but sneered in her heart. It was also thanks to Wei Zheng who ran over to question like this, so that she knew what Man Jiangyan's idea was this time.
Wei Zheng was deflated by Ling Yi, he was very annoyed in his heart, and he just wanted to leave quickly.
As soon as he reached the door, he heard someone calling out to him.
When Wei Zheng turned around, he saw a woman with a big belly, supported by a pale-faced woman.
After thinking about it for a while, he knew that this person must be the Zou family, the mother of the Ling Mansion, so he stepped forward and saluted: "I've seen Madame." β
Zou smiled slightly: "The adults came and went in a hurry, you see that I am physically inconvenient, and I didn't come out to greet me, please forgive me." β
"Madame is serious, she should have bowed to Madame, but she had something important to do, so she had to be rude."
Zou asked Ling Hui to hand over a food box, and said with a smile: "This is made by the house, if the adults don't dislike it, you can bring it to eat." β
Wei Zheng was flattered, thanked him again and again, took the food box and handed it to his subordinates, "Thank you, madam, then the lower official will be respectful and obedient." β
Zou said politely, with a worried look on his face: "Since the adults came here in person, something must have happened." β
"It's not a big deal, it's just a few questions." Wei Zheng gave up his hand again and resigned.
Zou looked at his back and walked away, and then said to Cai Ju: "Find someone to inquire at the Jingzhao Yin Office to see if there is any important news." β
Picking chrysanthemums should be, hurry down and arrange.
After Ling Yi sent the Lan clan to the house, he was ready to leave.
Lan was helped by Cheng to lie down on the bed, showing exhaustion, and shouted to Ling Yi: "Fusheng, grandmother is old, and she has thought about a lot of things."
You have to pay more attention to the affairs of this house, your mother has not been easy for so many years, and she was also confused for a while before she made a big mistake, but fortunately, she has repented now, and you don't hold a grudge in your heart, and go to her yard more often on weekdays. β
Ling Yi replied respectfully, watching Lan close his eyes before leaving.
"Heyβthe old lady is going to sleep this time, I don't know when I'm going to sleep again." Cheng muttered to himself, tidying up the quilt for the latter.
Ling Yi paused and turned back to ask Cheng, "Grandmother often falls asleep?" β
Cheng nodded and shook his head: "It's not that I'm sleepy, it's just that recently, the old lady has been sleeping very deeply, and as long as she sleeps, she is rarely woken up." β
When he said this, he thought it was a good thing, and said with a smile: "In the past, the old lady always said that she couldn't sleep, but now it's better, and she can't wake up." β
Ling Yi thought for a moment, then turned back to the bed, and pressed her fingers on Lan's wrist.
Cheng was shocked: "Miss-"
"It's nothing, I'm just looking, I recently learned some fur medicine with Dr. Lu, I want to give it a try, my grandmother's pulse is calm, and there are no signs of harmless disease, maybe my body is getting better and better."
Ling Yi withdrew his hand, blinked at Cheng's eyes, and made a silence: "Cheng's mother can be told to others, and grandmother can't do it, otherwise her old man will definitely laugh at me, Cheng's mother will think that I want to show off, you know about it." β
Cheng couldn't help laughing: "The eldest lady didn't learn from Nu Hong, but learned medical skills, the old lady knows, I'm afraid she will be worried, don't worry, the old slave won't talk much about this matter." β
Ling Yi left with a smile.
After returning to the Lan Pavilion, the weaving fan breathed a sigh of relief, lying on the table with a feeling of the rest of his life: "How could Wei Zheng find us here, when he asked just now, my hands trembled with fright." β
Weaving Yu glanced at her angrily: "You didn't do anything wrong, what are you afraid of." β
"I'm afraid of revealing Tsuji's identity." Weaving fan explained.
Ling Yi smiled and persuaded: "Don't fight, this matter won't end like this." Man Jiangyan was sure that Luoxia Yuan had something to do with the Ling Mansion, and this time he did not hesitate to take such a vicious move.
You should be very careful in the future, and tell Liang Kai that as long as it is not a big event, do not come to Ling Mansion, let alone meet you. β
The two maids both nodded yes, and Zhi Yu remembered what Ling Yi had just done, and asked, "Does the eldest lady doubt the old lady's body-"
"It may be that I am suspicious, but my grandmother's pulse is stable and there is nothing unusual."
Ori Yu put his mind down and went down with the weaving fan to do things. (To be continued......)
