Chapter 197: Wan Qixing's suspicions

In the garden of the Marquis's Palace, although it is now about to enter winter, the weather in Hanzhong is not as cold as in the north after all, and there are already two fat and cute giant pandas playing happily among the verdant bamboos in the garden. There weren't many people who could come to this garden on a normal day, so the two guys didn't care about it at all, maybe as long as they were still in the lush bamboo forest in the photo, they would be satisfied.

A continuous bamboo forest paints a corner of the garden into a green world, and the curling bamboos stretch out to the blue sky, like a pair of scissor-like bamboo leaves standing proudly in different directions, as if they don't care about the cold wind wreaking havoc on them.

Lin Feng was sitting on the stone bench under the garden pavilion at this time, there was a plate of desserts and a small pot of wine on the stone table in front of him, he looked at the two little guys who were playing in the bamboo forest with a calm face, and there was no expression on his face, but if he looked closely at his black eyes, he could faintly read a trace of longing and expectation, and even mixed with happiness and satisfaction.

Soon, this silence was broken by the footsteps behind him, although the footsteps were very soft, but they were still completely heard by Lin Feng, even the two little guys in the bamboo forest were sitting on the ground and turned their heads to look at Lin Feng's side, their eyes were clear, and their expressions were cute.

Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh slightly, held the wine jug on the stone table directly, raised his head and poured a few sips along the spout, and then slowly put the wine jug back on the table, letting out a long sound of satisfaction, and then changed to a face full of smiles and slowly turned over, when he saw the visitor, the curvature of the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bend wider.

The person who came was Wan Qixing, who had been cold and without the slightest change in expression all day, and Wan Qixing at this time was the same as before, as if someone owed him millions, an old man with a black face. With his appearance, if he walked down the street during the day, his cold face and unconcealable murderous aura would probably be enough to frighten passers-by to make way for him.

Lin Feng was naturally accustomed to Wan Qixing's face, so he just stood up, smiled faintly, and joked to him from the name in the previous letters between the two: "Lao Wan (Wan), the news is fast enough!" ”

What did Lin Feng refer to when he said the way of nature, he nodded slightly and responded: "Hou Ye already knew it when he first arrived at the Marquis's Mansion, but when he saw Hou Ye's deliberate disguise, it must be inconvenient to show up, so he didn't take the lead in disturbing Hou Ye!" After speaking, Wan Qixing's brows furrowed slightly, and then added: "Master Hou, my surname is Wan Qi (moqi), not Wan (Wan)." ”

"Yes, I know!" Lin Feng nodded in understanding, then raised his head to look at Wan Qixing, and continued with a smile: "Old Wan, tell me about the incident mentioned in the last letter." ”

When Wan Qixing heard that he was called Lao Wan again, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly unconsciously, and a wry smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, which also made the smile on Lin Feng's face, who saw this subtle change in his eyes, even thicker.

"Hmm." In the end, it was Wan Qixing who chose to compromise and decided not to entangle with Lin Feng more in terms of title, and nodded slightly and explained: "Recently, I found that Steward Hu often goes out, and every time he goes out and comes back, his expression is a little wrong. ”

"Well, what did you find?" Wan Qixing's words had already been explained in the previous letter with Lin Feng, so Lin Feng directly asked about the result.

"I'm not sure!" Wan Qixing's brows suddenly wrinkled tightly, and he explained with a somewhat ugly face: "At the beginning, I asked the people below to follow, and later it became me, but every time I feel that what Steward Hu does when he goes out of the mansion is very normal, even the people who come into contact with him outside the mansion are very ordinary, and I have also checked the background of those people, and they are all very clean and there are no problems." ”

Combined with the change in Wan Qixing's expression and the situation analyzed, Lin Feng also felt that this matter was extraordinary, and subconsciously thought that this would definitely not be some kind of accident or several kinds of accidents, which also reminded him that when he first entered Hanzhong Mansion, Uncle Li Huang reminded himself to be the main housekeeper.

When Wan Qixing saw Lin Feng also frowning and pondering, his face suddenly became a little ugly, after all, he had sworn to Lin Feng that there would be no accidents in the Marquis Mansion, although there were no accidents now, but this was just more serious than the accidents that had already occurred, as the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves.

"Master Hou, give me some more time, I'll find a few of those who have come into contact with Steward Hu!" Wan Qixing's face gradually became gloomy, and the words he said became more and more ruthless word by word, and the killing intent in his eyes was not concealed at all, as if he was also very angry about this matter now.

Lin Feng naturally understood what Wan Qixing meant by saying this to himself face-to-face, Wan Qixing just didn't dare to decide privately before he got the order, after all, this is Hanzhong Mansion, the capital of the entire Shannan Province, if he mistakenly caught and killed the people because of some unwarranted things, it would undoubtedly be causing trouble for his top boss Lin Feng.

Lin Feng couldn't make a decision at this time, if he agreed to Wan Qixing, then maybe he really couldn't avoid causing panic among the people in the city, and then he would have broken the current difficult peace with his own hands, and it was estimated that the people of Hanzhong Mansion would also criticize his actions.

But if you don't have a clue like this, it's like a time bomb is placed around the Marquis's Palace, and you don't know when it will explode, let alone how powerful this time bomb will be and how big the scope will be. After all, there are not only a few female dependents living in this marquis's mansion now, but also a little marquis and a little marquis who may not have been born yet.

"That's it! Wait and see! Finally, Lin Feng still couldn't make the decision that he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of one, waved his hand to stop Wan Qixing, then sighed, sat back on the stone bench, grabbed the wine jug on the table and poured it big, not caring about the wine stains flowing from the corners of his mouth, raised his hand and pointed to the stone bench opposite to signal Wan Qixing to sit down as well: "Sit, tell me about his contact with those people in the city, on what level?" ”

Wan Qixing nodded slightly, but he didn't go over to sit down, but stood in place and began to introduce: "Zhang Ji Shops, Yang Ji Shops in the center of the city, and some shops that can't be on the table. Among them, the most frequent exchanges with Cheung Kee Shops and Yang Kee Shops are the most frequent. ”

Zhang Ji and Yang Ji stores are the two largest stores in Hanzhong Mansion, operating a variety of commodities and goods, the reason why they are the most famous in Hanzhong Mansion is because the goods of the two are imported, although the imported goods are relatively expensive, but fortunately, there are not many powerful merchants in Hanzhong Mansion, so they will slowly fatten the two shops. Since the two families are so rich, it is natural that the taxes paid every quarter and each year are not a small share, and Lin Feng will naturally notice the two stores when he checks the account books, and he also learned some news from the people below.
