"So you killed Green Ripple?"

If you talk about the most trusted subordinate in the Wei Mansion, Green Ripple is the first. Cheng Ye only loved her as her mother's sister, but she didn't know that she had served her mother for decades, and she was so vicious and ruthless, killing her master.

Hearing this, Cui Yi covered her face with her hands, fell on the ground and cried even louder, "I saw her poisoned in the second young master's room!" ”

The three people in the room looked stunned.

Wei Chengye took two steps back, slapped his palm on the table, and shouted: "Confused! At that time, the third brother Zheng also lived in my room, and he was injured......"

Suddenly, I thought that Yuan Zheng was the time when the Li clan forcibly wanted to take Yuan Zheng away from the Wei Mansion.

Is it because he didn't succeed in taking him away that he let Green Ripple kill him?

"It's the maid's fault, thinking that since she has died, she deserves it, and she didn't tell the truth to the old lady and the young master, the maid is guilty!"

Cui Yi couldn't help kowtowing, Lin Shifan sighed, and asked in a deep voice in the shadow of the candle flame, "Did she tell you who instructed it?" ”

"She only cried, and tried her best to make amends to me, saying that she was sorry for Mrs. and Young Master."

Cui Yi's eyes were stunned, as if she was trying to remember.

Lin Shifan glanced at Fei Minghe through the flickering candlelight, the latter coughed slightly, and the chill in the smile on his face made Cheng Ye cold for no reason, "You are meritorious in this Lu Lian's murder of the young master." The old lady has been complimenting you on your thoughtfulness and wants me to admit you into the room. If you don't think I'm old, sick or weak, choose a day to move in. ”

Cui Yi's face was full of astonishment, and then she showed a confused and excited look, and kowtowed on the ground, "The servant is only afraid that he is not worthy of Mr., and there is no unwillingness." ”

Cheng Ye personally carried the wind lantern, led Lin Shifan through the courtyard, and then chose a sandwich road in the house wall that no one walked, and sent him directly to the low courtyard wall adjacent to a lake.

Seeing him looking at himself dressed in casual clothes, Shi Fan patted Cheng Ye on the shoulder, "Even the green ripples ...... I'm afraid that there are a lot of unclean inside and outside the Wei Mansion, and I am so careful today to let you know that you will not be a child in the future, whether you are at home or outside, you must be extremely vigilant. ”

"Uncle, shouldn't Green Ripple belong to the Li family?" Cheng Ye asked eagerly.

"Third Brother Zheng has been living in the mansion for a few days, if you want to harm him, it is much easier to poison him through Green Ripple than it is for Wang An to come to the door to get someone in person, but, according to what Cui Yi said tonight, Green Ripple was poisoned after Wang An died."

Shi Fan smiled with relief, "It's naturally good that you learn to think about these things, but who knows if Cuiyi is also lying?" ”

"I have a piece of evidence here, after the first emperor had a stroke, your mother felt that something was wrong, and ordered Lu Lian to repair the book and report it to me. There was a suspicion in the letter, and she bluntly said that the Li clan had rebelled and asked me to intercept and kill Li Chongwei who was going south outside Beijing. ”

Cheng Ye was shocked, no wonder his uncle and Mr. Fei have been paying attention to Cuiyi and Cha Lulian, when his mother sent the letter, he only roughly guessed that the Li family was going to rebel, and he could also guess that Li Chongwei was going to be unfavorable to King Li and his father and brother on the front line of Tulun, but no one thought that Li Chongwei would dare to collude with Tulun to murder Zhongliang, the tragedy of King Lin and his father and brother must have been unthinkable by his mother, how could the 50,000 Huaiyuan elite let the Li Chongwei army retreat?

And the most important thing should be to notify his uncle to enter Beijing to rescue the driver, or to divide troops to rescue the driver before intercepting Li Chongwei, rather than letting him intercept and kill Li Chongwei with all his might.

"There are still many doubts about this matter, and we need to continue to investigate. She has lived in Weifu for decades, and she has been very close to whom, who she has seen before and after doing things, and what she has done may not be traceless. Cheng Ye nodded solemnly and said.

The royal ditch winds through the southeast of the imperial city, flows through the jagged 100,000 pavilions and pavilions of the powerful and nobles, and flows into the Dinglong River in the east of the city.

Jiaolan Lane, which is built along the Dinglong River, is the most prosperous and extravagant place in Kyoto.

Once it is night, Jiaolan Lane is the first to make noise, the lights are lit in the alley one after another, and the streets are full of cars and horses at the beginning of the lanterns, and the fragrance is fine. Kyoto's wealthy merchants gather here, or drink tea and sing poems, or lean on the red and green to be extremely elegant.

There is a very special place in the middle section of Jiaolan Lane, from the street to see that this is a three-storey pavilion, built very exquisitely, the high corridor of the pavilion, between the heavy hall of the tired platform, the mountains and rocks can be seen vaguely, and the strange flowers and plants are sparse and uneven. In the middle of the side of the golden silk nanmu plaque, the dragon flying phoenix dance is written with four big characters "jade belt old tour", but there is no entrance on the street, and there is no small beauty along the street to solicit.

This is the place where Kyoto's dignitaries and gentlemen gather, and can only be accessed by boat from the Dinglong River, and the boat lady in the store will ferry to the pier behind the store. And there is a rule for the old jade belt tour, which can only be brought in by regular customers, and before entering the store, you must wear a bronze mask prepared by the boat lady, and do not show your true face.

The gambling house in the store, the squires are all very rare in Kyoto elegant and luxurious, after entering the store, there are beautiful beauties waiting for each living and eating, and a hundred taels of gold can linger here for a month, which is the largest "gold cave" in Kyoto.

On this day and night, the store was noisy and noisy, but the doors and windows of the three-story C room were closed and quiet.

"The previous Li clan conspired against that move, these two old things went wrong one after another, which led to the collapse of the old master's layout for many years, which is a pity!"

A soap-robed man in a bronze tiger head mask snuggled up on a piece of pearl softness, bowing his head slightly to the amber wine in the white jade cup in his hand.

Sitting across from him was a man wearing a bronze unicorn mask and a royal blue robe, who didn't hear his complaints before he sighed lowly after a long time.

"Fortunately, the military strength in his hand was preserved, and the old master did not lose anything, but ...... Looking at it coldly these days, this little emperor has a tough heart and is very comparable, and these old ministers around him are not mediocre, so they need to be dealt with carefully. ”

"I said a long time ago that Lin Shifan should be eliminated, the old master is ......"

The Tiger Head Mask Man's complaint was rudely interrupted, and the Qilin Mask Man shouted: "Without Lin Shifan, who will resist the 200,000 Gyeonggi Guards?" Counting on you? ”

As he spoke, he breathed a sigh of relief and said earnestly: "Don't mention these useless things. I'm here to inform you of the old master's next steps. ”

"What did the old master say?" The Tiger Head Mask Man was not at all unhappy by being reprimanded, but instead sat up straight with great interest and asked.

The unicorn masked man dipped his index finger in the glass, tapped it three times on the table, put his thumb and index finger together, and slammed it on the table, "Use these forces outside to kill people with a knife!" ”

"You mean this mission...... Hey, hey, hey, I've got a plan in mind—"

The tiger head mask man approached the man and wanted to say what he was thinking, but was interrupted by the unicorn mask man: "The one in the west is in charge of everything, don't interfere!" ”

"It was this old guy who made a mistake before, and the old master still trusts him so much." Tiger head mask people are unwilling.

"This time the old master has his own arrangements, don't act rashly, and scare the snake and ruin the big thing!"

The unicorn masked man stood up and pressed his arm towards the bronze masked man, who was still sitting on the pearl stick, until he nodded in pain.
