But if people are forcibly taken away like this now, not only Zhang Yuanwai will not agree, but even other subordinates may also criticize their approach, so that everyone has no way to convince them, so there is no need.

Besides, they still have one of the biggest pieces of evidence in their hands, but now this evidence has not returned, and when it appears in front of them when they return, the steward will have no way to quibble.

Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, Shen Jingde, who had been sitting on the side without saying a word, suddenly spoke.

Originally, Shen Lian thought that he was speaking towards his side, but she never expected that he would help the housekeeper, so angry that she was speechless for a while, she didn't expect him to be so stupid to this extent.

"Maybe there is some misunderstanding and it is possible, I think this housekeeper is loyal and honest, and it is unlikely that he will do such a thing, it should be that something went wrong in the middle, which led to some misunderstandings."

Qi Shi also echoed very unassertively and said, "Yes, there must be a misunderstanding, how can this thing be done by the housekeeper, we have also been here before, what kind of person is the housekeeper, we also have a good idea in our hearts, it should be our family Li'er who is mistaken." ”

never thought that their two stupid donkeys would be able to say such a thing, Shen Lian was speechless for a while, and he didn't know what to say.

At this time, Yin Chen spoke, "There is no misunderstanding, the two of us saw him stuff this letter outside the crack of the door, what do you think there will be any misunderstanding?" Being asked like this, Shen Jingde and Qi were also embarrassed, and they didn't know what to say.

In fact, just now, the two of them just felt that it was a little useless to sit upright like this and say nothing, but they didn't expect that this opening would say the wrong thing.

The two of them were silent before Shen Lian spoke, she glanced at the butler who was kneeling on the ground, and her eyes fell on the others again.

"This matter is what he did, if he can explain clearly, what the letter is about, then maybe I can consider whether there is any misunderstanding in this matter, if he can't explain it clearly, then, he is the black hand behind this matter!" Seeing that she said this, Zhang Yuanwai said directly to the housekeeper, "It's already this time, you quickly explain clearly, if you don't say it well, I can't help you, you think about it yourself." ”

The housekeeper understood that this was Zhang Yuan's last chance to give him, and if he couldn't give a satisfactory answer, then he might also agree with Shen Lian's statement.

When the time comes, he will directly take himself away and put him in prison, what kind of situation will he face, he knows very well in his heart, when the time comes, it will be a vicious torture, and in terms of his ability to bear, he will definitely put everything out of the tray.

At this moment, the butler quickly turned his little brain, thinking about how he should explain all this.

In this situation, he knew very well that if there was no reasonable reason, then he would face the most severe punishment.

In a hurry, he thought of a particularly good idea, but he didn't wait to say it, but waited for their next question.

If he took the initiative to say it, it would seem a little too deliberate, and it would also be a little suspicious.

Seeing that he didn't explain for a long time, Zhang Yuanwai was a little anxious.

"Did you really throw that letter out?" The butler who was kneeling on the ground nodded, "It was indeed I who threw it out, but the disappearance of the young master really has nothing to do with me, and I have no choice but to do this, I love the young master so much, how could I do such a thing?" I was really wronged! ”

"Then you can explain what the hell is going on with that letter and why you threw it out!" In this case, the housekeeper knew that it was time for him to explain clearly, and if he didn't say it now, then he really wouldn't have a chance again, so he began to take the initiative to say it.

"That's the case, because the young master has never heard from me, I'm very worried, the person who kidnapped him obviously did it for the silver, and now they are here to investigate this matter, I'm very worried that the person who kidnapped the young master will know, once they do something to hurt the young master, it is really too much regret, so I did it, I know it's not right to do this, but there is no way, I hope that after they leave, they will be able to release the young master back after giving the silver."

After hearing his story, Zhang Yuanwai was very moved, he didn't expect him to have such good intentions, and instantly felt that his previous suspicions about him really shouldn't be.

Originally, Shen Jingde and Qi Shi, who were helping the housekeeper to speak just now, were a little embarrassed by Yin Chen's words, but now it seems that their thoughts are not wrong at all, and what they said just now is also right, and there is no big problem.

Shen Jingde deliberately glanced at Zhang Yuanwai, and found that his face softened, so he knew that he should have believed the housekeeper's words.

In that case, it would be a bit inappropriate to continue to believe that this matter was done by the housekeeper, and it would be most appropriate to change the direction of the wind at this time.

In this way, Shen Jingde spoke again.

"I just said that this is a misunderstanding, and now it seems that this is really the case, and there is no big problem in explaining it clearly, but the housekeeper is also a little responsible for this matter, after all, if you say it in the morning, you will not be wronged, and Li'er and Yin Chen did see it, and they didn't say it at all."

"yes."

Zhang Yuanwai sighed and took the words.

"If you had said it earlier, there would have been no such things later, so all the responsibility is on you, you have done this misleading thing, and you have not explained it clearly in time, you will naturally be suspected like this, your starting point is good, but you have to tell me in advance if you do this kind of thing in the future, you know?" After hearing his words, the butler nodded hurriedly.

"This time, I was too negligent and too worried about the young master's safety, so I was like this, otherwise, I would never have done such a thing."

After a pause, he continued, "Actually, if you investigate like this, you can't find anything, and besides, they have been here for two days, and they haven't done anything, they just stayed, and they didn't go out to find the young master at all, if they directly handed over the silver to the person who kidnapped the young master, maybe they would let the young master come back directly, it is also possible." ”

The meaning of the words is already very obvious, that is, the silver is given directly, and then the matter is thoroughly understood.

The fox's tail was finally revealed, and Shen Lian couldn't help but sneer.

"Do you think there is no problem if you really give the money? If the money is given out, the young master is not young, and he already remembers the appearance of the person who kidnapped him, do you think he will be allowed to come back alive? If you do give the money, you will wait to collect the body. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, especially Zhang Yuanwai's face, which was extremely ugly.

Seeing that no one spoke, Shen Lian continued, "Now we can only catch the kidnappers to ensure the safety of the young master, otherwise, as soon as the silver is in hand, I will directly tear up the ticket." ”

"Rip the ticket? What does it mean to tear up a ticket? Qi asked curiously.

"The promissory note is to kill the person directly, and the person will not be put back at all, you should think about what I just said, and think about whether it makes sense."

There was silence again, no one spoke, not even the butler.

He is very smart, since he has not turned all his attention to himself now, then he should talk as little as possible, and lower his sense of existence as much as possible, so that no one notices his words, and he will not be involved in this matter again.

I have to say that his trick just now was indeed quite clever, obviously he was about to be cornered, but he turned himself into a saint, so that everyone eliminated suspicion of him.

Of course, Shen Lian and Yin Chen still had doubts about him, they didn't believe what he said at all, and insisted that this matter was done by him, which he couldn't explain at all.
