Chapter 23 - Plans for Each

Only then did Ling come back to his senses.

Chu Zining, the dead girl, actually set a trap in her words, the purpose was nothing else, it was to obtain the right to find the person who was poisoned.

It's really a deep thought.

"Since this incident happened in Ning'er's house, it was for Ning'er." The old lady seemed to have made up her mind, and her eyes wandered between Chu Zining and the Ling family, "Ling family, you don't believe that someone poisoned it, and this matter will be investigated by Ning Er!" ”

She called the housekeeper and took out a sign in public and handed it to Chu Zining.

The brand is the size of a palm, with a small "Chu" character on the front and a fine carving on the back.

"You put away this sign, except for your father's study and inner library, you can enter every yard in the backyard with a sign." The old lady advised, "Maids, maids, handymen, etc. can be driven by this card, don't lose it." ”

Chu Zining knew that this was the token of the head of the Prime Minister's Mansion that the old lady had been holding in her hand, so she didn't dare to delay, so she immediately took it and put it away carefully.

Ling Shi stared at the sign tightly, his eyes were slightly cold, but he couldn't even hold a fake smile on his face.

Even if she has been in charge of the backyard for many years, the old lady has not let go of her mouth.

Now it was given to Chu Zining.

Although the sign will be returned to the old lady after the matter is finished, this breath is like a stone on Ling's chest, and he can't swallow it!

"Old lady, Ning'er is too young, and she has been practicing martial arts in the mountains, and she has never touched this backyard thing." Ling's eyes were worried, and he said timidly, "The concubine is afraid that she will make a mess in the backyard if she is not careful." The backyard is restless, and the lord must not rest well, what should he do if he delays his business in the court? ”

The old lady of the Ling family values Chu Jinshan's career the most, and this remark will definitely allow her to take back part of the rights given to Chu Zining.

Sure enough, after hearing this, the old lady thought for a moment, and then said, "Ning'er, this matter is limited to you within ten days." After 10 days, if you haven't identified the poisoner, you'll need to return the token. ”

"Yes." Chu Zining obediently agreed.

"Ning'er, then you have to investigate carefully." Ling's expression eased slightly, and there was a lot of triumph in his eyes, "If the time comes, you can't find out, you still practice martial arts with peace of mind in the future, and don't interfere in the backyard affairs anymore." ”

"It's not a bother, little girl." Chu Zining already had an idea in her heart, and said with a calm expression, "It's that the little lady is suspicious, and she left without permission during the grounding period, don't forget to accept the punishment that the old lady gave you." ”

"Chanting all night can not only make the little lady calm her mind, but also pray for the kitten who died in vain." Chu Zining looked at the wooden box containing the white cat's corpse in the old lady's hand, sighed in her heart, and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid that the little lady will hear the cat's meow every night." ”

"You!" Ling's face was pale, and these words almost poked her face and scolded her for being a murderer.

"Okay, the quiet place of the Buddha Hall, it's noisy enough today, let's go." The old lady's face was tired, and she turned the Buddha beads again, "Ling's stay." ”

Ling reluctantly knelt on the futon.

The rest bowed and withdrew.

Ling chanted the scriptures for half the night, and he was dizzy with his thoughts.

Thanks to this midnight meditation, she found out that she was tired.

The old lady saw that she was almost fainting, so she asked her to go back first today, and make up for the rest tomorrow.

Back in the courtyard, Ling gritted his teeth and said, "This hoof has only been in the mansion for a few days, and he has won over the old lady, which is really a good skill." ”

Although she fell for Chu Zining's strategy today, what she gave was only a one-sided statement, which was not enough to be believed.

But the old lady not only believed it, but also cooperated extremely much, if she hadn't been punished, she would really be dumb and couldn't say what she had suffered.

The more Ling thought about it, the more angry he became, and he immediately recruited his capable subordinates.

"In this way, you do as I command you!" She was angry, turned into a plan, and at this time all poured out.

"I don't believe it, Chu Zining still has such luck this time, he can escape again!"
