Li Yi and Xiang Sheng became more and more interested, and the two played until it was about to get dark, and then they reluctantly stopped. Fastest update

Li Junhou shouted that he wanted to take Ma Zhong to drink with them, Ma Zhong was afraid that he would lose his words after drinking, so he hurriedly said, "The younger brother still has some chores to do, so I can't accompany the two soldiers to have fun." ”

Li Junhou was a little unhappy, wrinkled his brows and said, "Brother Ma, what is your identity now?!" It looks like it's about to have a name in the army. And a few of us military marquis also called brothers and sisters, and played together. If we take care of those cheap industries again, won't we make the Jingzhou army lose face? ”

Ma Zhong excused himself and said, "Since the junior brother is in his position, he must be loyal to his duties, and there will naturally be rules and regulations in the future." ”

Li Junhou gave a thumbs up when he heard this, "Okay!" Then wait for Zhao Dudu's reward to come down, and let's drink again. ”

Li Yi and Xiang Sheng took care of themselves and let their men go to the wine and banquet, and Ma Zhong left slowly alone and returned to his courtyard.

Although I didn't have the opportunity to discuss the next plan with Xiang Sheng this time, after all, I had already met, and I had dealt with the general military in the prince's mansion through Ma's Hammer Pill, and even if I had frequent contact with Xiang Sheng, no one would feel abrupt.

Ma Zhong is quite satisfied with this result.

He went back to his courtyard, first checked the mark on the door to make sure that no one had entered, then opened the door and went back to his room.

Ma Zhong slept more soundly this night.

Early the next morning, Ma Zhong heard someone banging on the door outside.

Ma Zhongzai's yard was very small, originally stacked with sundries, and his residence was just a simple thatched house.

He heard the commotion outside in bed, rubbed his face, got dressed and went to open the door.

It was a crony next to Li Wen who knocked on the door, and when he saw Ma Zhong coming out, he hurried over and whispered hurriedly, "The third steward died last night, and now the garden is in trouble, what the second master means, let you take the time to go over as soon as possible." ”

Ma Zhong was overjoyed, and couldn't help but clench his fists, Zhang Pan finally died!

Then they don't have to worry about being exposed too early, and they can try to let Wang Zhou take over the dungeon, and they can arrange it more calmly.

Ma Zhong suppressed the excitement on his face, nodded and said, "I know." ”

After Li Wen's cronies finished delivering the news, Ma Zhong was about to turn around and go back to the house, but who expected that the cronies remembered something and seemed to have to turn around and admonish, "By the way, the second master said, avoid people." ”

Ma Zhongxin said that this is not nonsense, don't I know to pay attention to secrecy.

Ma Zhong replied, "Got it." ”

Ma Zhong closed the courtyard door and went back to the house to sleep.

This time it was a good time to sit back and relax.

Near noon, Ma Zhong got up to freshen up. Now his status in the Shizi's Mansion is very high, and Su Tou, the original gardener's steward, smiled when he saw him.

After Ma Zhong woke up, he went to the room to find food by himself.

It took Ma Zhong a long time to figure out the doorway.

It turned out that people with some status in the mansion would not dine together with those ordinary family members.

They tend to have their own cottages in the back kitchen compound.

You can choose some of the meals used by the prince and the subordinate officials by yourself and eat them to your heart's content.

Of course, like the chief steward, the second steward and other powerful people, there are close servants who come to receive food.

Ma Zhong is a single person, although he has the momentum of rising now, he can only come over for a good meal by himself.

The horse walked to the room, and was in a good mood to check whether the meat was fresh or not.

The people in the room are a little mysterious. When acquaintances get together, there are some quiet topics.

Ma Zhong knew that this was the aftermath of the death of the third steward Zhang Pan, and he didn't care about it.

After Ma Zhong had a full meal, he went directly to the courtyard of the second steward Li Wen.

After inquiring in the past, Li Wen was still discussing things with others and did not come back.

Ma Zhong was not in a hurry, sat down in the hall, closed his eyes and waited.

After about half an hour, I heard some noise outside the courtyard.

As soon as Ma Zhong raised his eyelids, he saw Li Wen, the second steward, and Wang Zhou, the seventh steward, discussing something in a low voice, and walked in with a heavy face.

When the two saw Ma Zhong, they turned around and signaled, and his cronies immediately walked away with interest.

Li Wen took Wang Zhou into the hall, and then closed the door casually.

Ma Zhong stood up with a smile and said, "The two of you are really resolute, and we will have seven or eight points of certainty as soon as Zhang Pan dies." ”

Li Wen and Wang Zhou glanced at each other, their faces full of bitterness.

"Otherwise, people are dead, but unfortunately we didn't kill them."

Ma Zhong was taken aback, and his face became a little serious, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Wen said, "Lao Qi and I were about to arrange for someone to be his vote, but I didn't expect that after Steward Zhang returned to the house from Yan's house last night, he was killed in the back garden." By the time someone found out, the whole person was already cold. ”

Ma Zhong realized that something was unusual, and he exclaimed, "Dead in the back garden? ”

The nature of this matter is completely different.

Zhang Pan died in the back garden of the Shizi Mansion, which proves one thing, the murderer is likely to be in the Shizi Mansion.

Ma Zhong thought quickly, who else wanted to put Zhang Pan to death?!

It is estimated that there are many people who want to die in Zhang Pan, but there are definitely not many people who dare to do such a vote in the Shizi Mansion.

Ma Zhong was silent for a while, and then said to the two of them in a deep voice, "This thing is a little unusual!" ”

Wang Zhou smiled bitterly, "Not really." Next, it is estimated that we will have to go to the Shizi Mansion to track down the real murderer, and we will be unlucky now, and we will not dare to do any action. ”

When Ma Zhong heard Wang Zhou say this, his good mood in the morning was ruined.

Searching for the Shizi Mansion will definitely make a fuss.

They really didn't dare to make any surprise moves when they were so suspicious.

The two of them glanced at Ma Zhong with some sorrow, "It's just that bastard died outside the mansion, but now, Lao Qi and I have a few other objects, all of whom are the key objects of suspicion,"

These two guys themselves are secret spies, and they are in a suspicious place, so they have already messed up.

Ma Zhong shook his head, not expecting much from the two of them.

He asked, "What did you come up with all morning?" ”

Li Wen said, "I have quickly reported this matter to the Governor's Mansion, and it is estimated that at most in the afternoon, Zhao Lei will personally bring troops over to sit in the town and investigate the people in the Shizi's Mansion one by one." ”

Ma Zhong had a headache, the situation in front of him was already troublesome, why did he provoke him?

But it's not strange to think about it, for Zhao Lei, who has nothing to do, he has to come to the door, such a big matter as the murder case in the prince's mansion must be solved in person.
