Chapter 186: The cousin who listened to the play

What the housekeeper said is also leaky, at present, Zhen Chutian can't find any flaws, these words, these things are not too reasonable, but there is only one thing that caught her attention, "You said that the prime minister's temperament has changed greatly, what's going on?" ”

Gu Chenghan looked at Zhen Chutian appreciatively, it seemed that she was there, so she didn't have to worry about missing the case, her mind was turning fast enough.

Now that the butler had not come to his senses, she asked again.

Seeing that Zhen Chutian had forced the housekeeper to a dead end, Gu Chenghan nodded slightly, "A person will not change his temperament for no reason, if you want to prove your innocence, butler, it is best to tell us all the details." ”

"This ......" The housekeeper hesitated for a while, and didn't speak, just when Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan were a little anxious, he seemed to suddenly remember something, "I remember, just before the old man was about to return to his hometown, he had seen a person, but I had never seen that person."

After that day, the lord began to be irritable, and it didn't take long for him to resign from the emperor, originally my wife and I thought that the lord would be better when he returned to his hometown, but no, the lord went out to a banquet every day to invite friends to eat and drink, and after coming back, he was still very angry.

The old slave didn't dare to ask, and the lady didn't dare to ask, who would have thought that the old man would die in a few days. After that, the butler's eyes were full of tears.

I don't know, do you really think that the housekeeper cares about the prime minister?

But Zhen Chutian doesn't believe that how can a person who is eyeing other people's wives really care about his life and death?

But knowing that he couldn't ask anything today, Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan glanced at each other, and the two of them tacitly thought of one place again, "Okay, if you think of anything again, remember to tell us, and is there anything good with that maid?" ”

If it weren't for the housekeeper and his wife killing people, the only cause of death that could be thought of might be love killing!

"Nice?" The housekeeper frowned and thought for a while, "Xiaoli should know that the relationship between the two of them was the closest in the past. ”

It's Xiaoli again, it seems that this maid knows a lot.

Zhen Chutian became more and more interested in Xiaoli in his heart, and without hesitation, he left the housekeeper's yard and went straight to the firewood room.

As soon as he arrived at the firewood room, he heard Xiao Li's cry, and Zhen Chutian frowned slightly and looked at Gu Chenghan.

"Don't look at me, the official didn't let Yu Linglong bully her."

"But it seems that Yu Linglong's method was also learned from adults?" Zhen Chutian couldn't help rolling his eyes, lifted his skirt and quickly entered the firewood room.

Pushing the door, he saw Yu Linglong, the long sword in his hand was against Xiao Li's neck, although the sword was not against Zhen Chutian's body, but she took a sip and subconsciously touched her neck.

"Ahem......"

"Your Excellency." Gu Chenghan coughed, causing Yu Linglong to turn to look at him.

He turned around and was fine, but his hand moved slightly, and the long sword also moved, Xiao Li's little face turned pale, and as the sword moved, she began to cry, "You, you are a careless person's life, even if you are Tiandu Mansion, what then?" ”

Xiao Li cried silently and rebuked Yu Linglong.

"Xiaoli, if you talk this nonsense now, you might as well tell us the truth directly, otherwise I won't be able to save you." Zhen Chutian looked at Xiao Li with a sad face, he really looked helpless like that.

But the frightened half-dead woman in front of her still gritted her teeth, and said that her master was the prime minister, and she had something to do when she left the house, and she didn't know anything about the murder.

In fact, Xiao Li insisted like this, Zhen Chutian also understood, after all, if she was really related to the murder, it would be a dead end for her to say it now, but she was not in a hurry, there was a lot of time, and she was slowly consuming it.

"Okay, then let me ask you, are you familiar with the maid who is waiting in front of your lady?" Zhen Chutian changed the topic, since you don't admit that the prime minister's death is related, then you can't say that you don't know this girl.

"Not familiar."

"It's better for you to just say you don't know each other." Zhen Chutian angrily threw Xiao Li a look, and then prepared to go out.

Xiaoli saw that Zhen Chutian was angry, his heart tightened, and he opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, he still shut up.

"Lord Jade, your sword just needs to be practiced, so she will give you practice." Zhen Chutian, who had just walked to the door, suddenly stopped and said such a sentence without beginning or end.

Yu Linglong reacted quickly, and a smug smile instantly appeared on her face, "Yes, it's just right." ”

"Wait, I say, I just say." Xiao Li saw that Zhen Chutian and Yu Linglong were not joking, she didn't want to die in the firewood room.

As long as he can get out alive, what to say and what not to say, Xiaoli seems to have his own measure.

Zhen Chutian is not in a hurry, she knows that sooner or later Xiaoli will tell the truth.

Zhen Chutian bluffed people, Gu Chenghan was ashamed, seeing that Xiaoli didn't recruit himself, and he still had a posture of catching up, how could he not admire.

Zhen Chutian turned around and came to Xiaoli without being in a hurry, and motioned for her to continue.

Xiao Li sniffed and glanced at Yu Linglong again.

In this way, Yu Linglong looked at Gu Chenghan.

Gu Chenghan didn't speak, but just made the same movements as Zhen Chutian.

Yu Linglong willingly put away the sword.

At that moment, Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief.

"And what the hell do you want to know?" Although Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief, she really didn't know what Zhen Chutian wanted to know.

"Let's just talk about the dead maid, if there is any good match, or any enemy, aren't you the closest to her!"

knew that Xiao Li was not happy, but as soon as Zhen Chutian said this, he saw her eyes unconsciously tilt to the left, and it was obvious that she was planning to lie.

Without waiting for Xiaoli to say anything, Zhen Chutian coughed, "If you want to lie, you don't have to, the people of Tiandu Mansion are not fools, you can know the truth and falsehood after a check, do you know that misleading Lord Gu to judge the case is a dead end." ”

opened his mouth slightly, and when he heard Zhen Chutian's words, he immediately closed obediently, for fear that he would say something heinous.

Bowed his head and didn't dare to look directly into Zhen Chutian's eyes.

Zhen Chutian was still not in a hurry, just staring at Xiao Li, rubbing her hands back and forth, her body subconsciously shrunk together, everything showed that she couldn't hold it anymore, and what she was going to say next must be true.

"I don't know if she has any good matches, I just know that she always likes to be alarmist, if she catches something, you will not be able to escape being talked about, even if I am sisters with her, but she still doesn't treat me sincerely.

If she has any enemies, that's a lot, and recently she offended Mrs. Lan's cousin. ”

When Xiao Li was talking, Zhen Chutian kept staring at her, but now that she talked about Mrs. Lan's cousin, she suddenly paused, and then began to deliberately avoid this person when she said it.

Xing Xiaoli felt that she was covering up very well, but she didn't know that Zhen Chutian she was facing was a woman who attacked people's hearts, and these subtle changes may not be easy for others to notice, but she can always grasp them in detail.

"Where is Mrs. Lan's cousin?" A smile flashed across Zhen Chutian's face.

She was born amazing, but she didn't like to laugh before, and there are only a handful of times when others see her laughing, Xiaoli has only seen her a few times, every time she meets, she gives people a very mysterious feeling, and her smart black eyes seem to be able to penetrate her heart every time.

Zhen Chutian, who was smiling like this, Xiaoli was really a little flustered, thinking that she had seen it wrong, rubbing her eyes, she still didn't believe it when it was still Zhen Chutian's smiling face.

"Just, right there...... This slave doesn't know very well, but he just knows that he used to love to listen to dramas. ”

"Okay." After getting the answer he wanted, Zhen Chutian got up and walked out of the firewood room.

"Yu Linglong is optimistic about Miss Xiaoli, if she still wants to say something, remember to reply." Before going out, Gu Chenghan looked at Yu Linglong thoughtfully.

"Yes, sir."

Xiao Li didn't know what Gu Chenghan meant by this, but Yu Linglong's eyes were full of excitement, which made her back cold.

"My lord, you can't torture me, I, I really don't know anything, you can't do this to me!" Xiao Li roared like crazy.

Yu Linglong, who originally didn't plan to do anything, was tricked by her like this, but she was playful, and the sinister smile on her face began to retreat until there was no way out.

The two of them, who had already left the firewood room, heard screams and unbridled laughter coming from inside the house, and a smile appeared on their faces.

"How can you be sure that what Xiaoli said is the truth?" Gu Chenghan naturally saw the changes on Fang Cai Xiaoli's face, but he knew that Zhen Chutian had an ability that he didn't have, so at this time he still wanted to hear her analysis.

"It's very simple, if a person wants to lie, even if she is determined, she will behave it, whether it is her eyes or body language, it will show her psychological state at this time......" Zhen Chutian did not hide it at all, and told Gu Chenghan all his analysis endlessly.

"What's that body language?"

Looking at Gu Chenghan with a puzzled expression, Zhen Chutian's mouth seemed to have more and more new words that he didn't know.

"It's the body's reaction, for example, if you want to be close to the same person, you will get close to her unnaturally." Zhen Chutian explained lightly.

Gu Chenghan nodded knowingly.

knew that Xiao Li was not lying when she was talking about her cousin, and her dodgy eyes happened to show that she also knew Mrs. Lan's cousin.

It is not known whether this person has anything to do with the maid's death, but there must be something between him and Xiaoli.

This rumored cousin who loves to listen to dramas is not easy to find, Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan went around the theaters in Lizhou, but they didn't find a man who matched the characteristics that Xiaoli said.

Returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion again, Xiaoli was already stunned by Yu Linglong, yes, it was a little difficult to ask her about her cousin now.

Seeing that it was not early, Gu Chenghan proposed to go to dinner first.

His stomach rumbled, and Zhen Chutian didn't argue, so he responded directly to Gu Chenghan.

When the words fell, Yu Linglong and the others also appeared, and Han Shuangyi came to Zhen Chutian with small steps, "Sister Chu Tian, today I went to see the corpse with Brother Song Jiang, I learned a lot of things." ”
