The people in the mansion never thought that there were still people who dared to attack the Zhenguo General's Mansion at night, and they almost succeeded, if it weren't for their eldest lady's alertness, the consequences would be unimaginable.

General Ji also had a gloomy face at this time, and personally sat in the dark prison that the Ji family had never used, watching the same torture instrument greet the black-clothed assassin.

When the black-clothed assassin only had one breath left, he finally confided a Wu character.

Huang Ping left the black-clothed assassin, came to General Ji's side, and said angrily, "This Wu family is also too deceitful, and they actually do such a thing." ”

General Ji replied in a deep voice, "Go out first." ”

After leaving the dungeon, he spoke, "Huang Ping, you go and find out what the Wu family has been doing recently." ”

Li Zhi pushed his chair and answered, "General, my subordinates think that we should bring the assassin to the door and see how he Wu family explains." ”

General Ji shook his head, "Do you think it's the Wu family?"

Huang Ping responded, "Of course, the generals have returned to the Wu family like that, and the young master Wu has been making a fuss about marrying our eldest lady to the death, and the Wu family must have a bad heart and found an assassin to assassinate our young lady." ”

General Ji opened his mouth and continued to ask, "Then all the black-clothed assassins are dead soldiers, but this leader is the only one who left his mouth alive, carried it to the last breath, and spit out a Wu character, do you think it is credible? In addition, do you think the Wu family would do such a reckless thing?"

Li Zhi and Huang Ping were stunned, and after a while Huang Ping spoke, "My subordinates think that the Wu family will not, it is someone who wants to take this opportunity to provoke a conflict between us and the Wu family, so they deliberately did it, and this assassin confided in a Wu character, which is this*." That's not the Wu family, and the general still asked his subordinates to check on the Wu family?"

General Ji asked rhetorically, "Then do you have any new clues?"

Huang Ping shook his head, and then he heard General Ji speak, "Then you don't want to go?"

Huang Ping responded, then turned around and left Cha Wu's house.

Li Zhi pushed General Ji out of the dark prison, and General Ji said, "Go to the Lingering Pavilion and have a look." ”

At this time, the Lingering Pavilion is still a little chaotic, most of the guards in the house are here, and the slaves and maids of the Lingering Pavilion are almost all on the way, and they are woken up by the guards in the mansion, and they are still a little foggy.

When General Ji passed, Ji Ruhuan was sitting in the main hall, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, talking to his second brother Ji Chengmu.

Seeing his father coming, Ji Ruhuan hurriedly stood up and greeted him, personally pushed his father to the edge of the brazier, and asked, "But what did you ask?"

General Ji didn't hide it from Ji Ruhuan and Ji Chengmu, and after waving his hand to let the servants in the main hall go down, he told Ji Ruhuan what he asked and his analysis.

Ji Ruhuan was silent for a while, and then answered, "Maybe this is the handiwork of the fourth prince and Prime Minister Song?"

General Ji sighed, "There is no evidence, if the only living mouth is just to splash dirty water on the Wu family, we will have no clues to investigate." ”

Ji Ruhuan shook her head disapprovingly, and responded, "How can there be no clues?" Just from our house, Mother Qiu and I have never slept all the time, and we can quietly put down everyone in the Lingering Pavilion, without alarming me and Mother Qiu, we must clearly know the layout of my Lingering Pavilion, and there are thieves in our mansion. ”

At this time, Ji Chengmo came in from the outside, and when he entered the door, he said, "Father, second brother, the house has been inspected, and there is no problem, but there is a rough mother-in-law in the inner courtyard who hanged herself in the house." ”

Ji Chengmu sighed, "I'm afraid that the thief will be wiped out first, and we will be one step late." ”

General Ji's eyes narrowed slightly, "Since someone has killed someone, then I'm afraid there is still a black hand in our mansion." ”

Ji Chengmo heard it in a fog, and asked, "What thief?

The three people in the room looked at Ji Chengmo in unison, everyone had more or less disgust on their faces, and Ji Chengmo, who was watching, said angrily, "You don't make it clear, how do I know what you said?"

General Ji shook his head helplessly, and commanded, "You go and check and see if that mother-in-law was hanged by herself or by someone else." ”

Ji Chengmo scratched his head and said, "I just forgot to check on this, so I'll go first." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left again.

Watching Ji Chengmo leave, Ji Chengmu said uneasily, "I have to go with me to take a look, it's not too early, Huan'er should rest early, and my father will go back to rest early, these things will be talked about tomorrow." ”

General Ji opened his mouth and asked, "Can the surrounding area of the Lingering Pavilion be arranged?"

Ji Cheng Mu responded, "It has been arranged, and the thief will not be allowed to have another chance to get close to the Lingering Pavilion." ”

General Ji nodded with satisfaction, beckoned Ji Ruhuan to rest early, and left with Ji Chengmu.

followed Qiu's mother back to the inner courtyard, and saw Qingju and the others still trembling and sitting under the eaves together, watching a group of nurses clean up the blood stains on the ground in the yard.

Seeing Ji Ruhuan coming in, he still stood up with shaking legs and saluted Ji Ruhuan, Ji Ruhuan waved his hand sympathetically, "You don't need to stay here, let's go down and rest." ”

Xiao Jinzi is a man in the end, and he is also bold, and he is leading a group of guards to wash the yard, and when he saw Ji Ruhuan and Qiu's mother, he greeted him and said, "Miss, you go into the house to rest for a while, and this place will be washed immediately." ”

After speaking, he beckoned everyone, "Hurry up." ”

Ji Ruhuan gave everyone a hard work, and then copied the side and went back to the inner courtyard.

The other maids and mothers-in-law all went back to rest after listening to Ji Ruhuan's instructions, only Qingju Qingmei followed behind Ji Ruhuan with trembling legs.

Qingju hugged Qingmei's arm tightly, and said to Ji Ruhuan who was walking in front in a trembling voice, "Miss, aren't you, aren't you afraid? ”

Ji Ruhuan glanced at Qingju with disgust, "Look at your little bit of interest, you two don't need to wait, you should go back and rest early, it looks like it's almost dawn, and you can't sleep for a while." ”

Qingju hurriedly shook her head and said, "Where are you still sleeping, I, me and Qingmei are keeping vigil outside the young lady, and the two of them are squeezing the couch." ”

Ji Ruhuan glanced at the two of them, thinking that Mother Qiu hadn't slept all night, and then tossed until now, the fright was much bigger than that of these two fainted girls, plus she was old again, and she couldn't hold it anymore, so she said, "It's okay, Mother Qiu, you go back and rest, let them toss outside." ”

Qingju hurriedly smiled and responded, "Xie, Miss Xie." ”

Mother Qiu looked at Qingju Qingmei uneasily, "Can you two still serve Miss like this?"

Qingju didn't stutter anymore, patted her chest and promised, "Of course." ”

Mother Qiu stretched out her hand and nodded Qingju before she spoke, "That's okay, Miss have a good rest, and the slave and maid will retire." ”

When Qiu's mother turned to leave, Qingju stepped forward, but her hand was still tightly grasping Qingmei's arm, and she asked again, "Miss, so many people have died, and those who lack arms and legs are not afraid at all?"

Ji Ruhuan smiled and responded, "Don't be afraid." ”

In her past and present lives, she had seen and even experienced too many cruel and bloody scenes, and if she was afraid of this scene, she didn't know how many times she would have been scared to death.

Qingmei on the side finally opened her mouth, "Have you forgotten that our young lady has been on the northern battlefield and fought with the Northern Tartars?"
