Chapter 432: Letters
Situ Ye has suddenly been quiet recently, has he begun to doubt you? Be careful. ”
A clueless sentence was not even signed, but what was written on this note made Situ Ye clench the note in his hand, and the anger in his eyes seemed to be about to come out, as if he wanted to crush it.
If it was placed in normal times, this pigeon would at most be Xiao Chumo's conversation with a hidden force, and he would not be so angry. But right now, he was already suspecting that there was a traitor in his mansion, but now such a reminder note suddenly appeared, which naturally made Situ Ye full of anger and had nowhere to vent, and he was even more convinced that the traitor was in his mansion.
Of course, even if Situ Ye was suspicious by nature, he would not suspect Xingtian for the time being. After all, in his eyes, this "Little Douding" is under the surveillance of his guards all the time, not to mention that he doesn't have that scheming, even if he does, he has no chance to report to Xiao Chumo.
And he had already seen it, and this kid clearly wouldn't hide his emotions, so it would be so easy for him to snatch the pigeon. Therefore, Situ Ye could almost conclude that it should be Xiaodouding who wanted to come here for fun, but accidentally bumped into his father's dealings with people in his mansion. As the little prince of the Regent's Palace, he recognized the origin of the carrier pigeon at a glance, so he tried to hide it by all means. Unexpectedly, it was discovered by the guards who came with him.
Of course, the above is just Situ Ye's own conjecture. And the current situation, anyone who looks at it can't help but think the same as him. It's just that no one would guess that in fact, this seemingly innocent and harmless child is not Xiao Douding himself at all, but a sword spirit who has lived for thousands of years. What's more, he originally came to carry out his master's plan.
"Go find out which way this pigeon was going to fly!"
Situ Ye's tone was full of anger, which provoked the guards on the side to all lower their heads, for fear of being affected by this anger. And as soon as he gave the order, someone rushed to investigate.
Although the entire Situ Mansion is heavily guarded, there are still many people who do not know martial arts and carefully stay in the mansion to do miscellaneous labor. They didn't know how important a small pigeon could be, so the guards sent by Situ Ye made a little inquiry, and soon someone recalled the direction in which it had flown when they saw it.
"Master, I found it."
The guards knelt in front of Situ Ye and brought the results of the investigation. It's just that I don't know why, the guard, who has always been clean and neat, suddenly became a little hesitant at this moment, as if he was hesitating whether to tell the truth.
Obviously, Situ Ye was in a very bad mood now, and when he saw this guard looking so embarrassed, he was even more angry, and couldn't help but roar: "If you find out, say that you are so twisted and pinched, do you want to wait for me to ask in person!" ”
The guard below was obviously very in awe of him, and he couldn't help but tremble when he roared, and then he was even more shocked into a cold sweat when he thought of the latter's terrible methods on weekdays, where could he take care of others?
I saw that he hurriedly lowered his head deeper, and then hurriedly replied: "Back to the master, according to the confession of the people in the house, the carrier pigeon was originally going to fly in the direction of the south courtyard. Someone had even seen it try to land that way, but for some reason it suddenly turned around in the air and flew towards it. ”
The southern courtyard is where the guards in the Situ Mansion rest. This place is different from the ordinary subordinate room, which is specially for Situ Ye's henchmen to live in. Although the yard is not as exquisite as the others, it is not comparable to the lower rooms. Because of this, this place has become the most popular place for the people and guards in the house, and any slightest disturbance can be easily discovered.
The news brought by this guard, somehow, happened to match Situ Ye's previous guess. This made the latter even more angry.
Because although the South Courtyard was only for his henchmen to live in, in fact, ordinary subordinates could not enter it at all. And now, although almost half of the rooms over there have been occupied, there are actually only three people in the house.
"You! Immediately bring someone over and search the South Courtyard thoroughly! ”
Situ Ye casually pointed to the guard who was still kneeling on the ground, obviously believing his guess and vowing to find out the evidence. And his move can be regarded as making the guard below a little crying.
He is just an ordinary little guard, and he has been cared for by those two henchmen a few times on weekdays, and he still remembers this kindness in his heart, which is why he is not very willing to tell the truth. But at the moment, this order of his own master was not left for him to refuse.
"The subordinates obey the order, so let's investigate."
People are selfish, and compared with that kindness, it is obvious that their lives are more precious.
When the guards received the order, they no longer dared to hesitate at all, and hurriedly summoned the other guards who were guarding around and rushed towards the southern courtyard together. The only thing he could do right now was to pray in his heart that this matter had nothing to do with those two henchmen. After all, there is a Bo Ji who lives there, but there is also a Bo Ji who suddenly appeared!
Xing Tian had been standing by the side and watching this scene happen coldly, and the expression on his face did not fluctuate except for the panic he pretended to be at the beginning. Of course, whether it was the sudden appearance of the carrier pigeon or Situ Ye's reaction, it was actually in his and Xiao Chumo's plan.
It was because they knew that this person was suspicious that they did so much on purpose, and let several subordinates see this pigeon, so as to form a unified confession.
I have to say that Xiao Chumo's plan is really scary, and those subordinates in Situ's mansion have become a pawn in his plan without even seeing him.
Of course, the most important place is not here, but on the side of those two henchmen. Since Xiao Chumo's plan this time was originally prepared for them, it was natural that he had already instructed Xingtian to make all the preparations. Situ Ye sent someone to search this time, and naturally he would find out what he wanted to see.
"Uncle, can I, can I go back?"
Seeing that Situ Ye's gaze suddenly looked at him, Xing Tian hurriedly put away the look of watching the show in his eyes, and then pretended to be pitiful. Of course, Xingtian's acting skills are not exquisite, but his nervousness is more like he is afraid that he will be punished in the eyes of Situ Ye.
Although the latter didn't treat this kid very well, he still remembered that he was the little prince of the Regent's Mansion and the only hostage he used to threaten Xiao Chumo, so he nodded and asked the guards to take him back to the room.
