"Dead! Dead! ”

As soon as Ling Xiao's words fell, a scream sounded in the Zhuangzi. Although the sound is a little far from the warehouse, it is also very harsh.

- I don't know if the ears of people who are closer can stand it.

"Take it."

Just when Ling Xiao was about to go over with Zhou Yunxi to take a look, two long wooden boxes with gold trim were stuffed in his arms, and in terms of texture, they were not bargains.

Ling Xiao, who had followed Qin Fengyi for so many years, only knew that this box was a box specially used to hold medicinal materials, so he could probably guess what was inside.

"Miss! Miss! The steward hurriedly came over when he saw Zhou Yunxi's figure, of course he recognized Ling Xiao, but he also knew that the person in charge at this time was Zhou Yunxi, "Something happened!" The kid is dead! ”

"Mr. Bookkeeper's nephew?"

Hearing the steward say this, Zhou Yunxi was stunned for a moment, and then reacted. Suddenly, there was a little more stunned and disbelief on her face.

He's dead? How so?

"Yes." Seeing Zhou Yunxi, the steward only frowned, but he also settled down without panic, "I thought he was going out to wander again, but who knew that when a gang of workers passed by the pond, they found a strand of hair floating out of the lotus bush - and then they saw the child's body!" ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yunxi only felt that the scene in front of him seemed familiar.

By the way, when they hadn't entered Beijing yet, in the Zhuangzi where Zhou Yunxi and the others lived, there were one after another cases of maidservants drowning in the pond.

I didn't expect that when I arrived in the capital, there would be such a thing.

"There's really no other way to do it!" Zhou Yunxi was a little annoyed, "Where is the body?" ”

Seeing that Zhou Yunxi was angry, the person in charge didn't dare to say much, so he only obediently took Zhou Yunxi towards the edge of the pond, and at this time, there were already many people around that place.

"Report to the officer."

Zhou Yunxi only glanced at it and spit out this sentence directly, after all, this is not a town, and the officials in the capital are by no means the county lord's nest, if you hide it and don't report it, I'm afraid it will be more in line with some people's wishes.

Of course, whether there will be other troubles after the report, Zhou Yunxi did not consider it.

Because she knew there would be.

"But-" The steward hesitated, looked at Zhou Yunxi and didn't speak, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Miss, why don't you ask the master?" ”

As soon as he said this, Zhou Yunxi's eyes sank a little.

She didn't say that Ling Xiao was wrong, just because Ling Xiao was not assigned to her side by Qin Fengyi, but the steward in front of her was different from Ling Xiao. Since she came to her Zhuangzi to do things for her, naturally everything should listen to her.

Although he is Qin Fengyi's person, Zhou Yunxi should have been in charge of Zhuangzi's affairs.

"After all, I'm afraid that this matter will involve the one in the court, so be careful." Seeing Zhou Yunxi's slightly gloomy eyes, the steward also estimated what she was thinking, so he also seemed a little hesitant at this time, "If Miss doesn't want to, she will do exactly what Miss wants." ”

At this time, Zhou Yunxi suddenly knew why Qin Fengyi would put this person in the medicinal herb Zhuangzi to be a steward.

"Report to the officer." Zhou Yunxi looked at the steward and stared into his eyes, "How did you tell me, how did you tell the officials who came to investigate, what is the matter, come to the Qin Mansion, can you understand?" ”

"Understood."

As soon as the steward heard this, he immediately responded, knowing that there was no room for return to the matter. Wu Jiu Literature

As for Zhou Yunxi, after taking another look at the dumb corpse, he left straight away without the slightest discomfort on his face. It is true that after seeing the corpse several times, and each time it became more and more disgusting, Zhou Yunxi already had some immunity.

She didn't want to admit that she was a little more numb to the corpse, but it was already a fact.

"I'm afraid I'll also arrive at the Hou Mansion at this time, we-"

"Go straight to it."

Although Zhou Yunxi's sensitivity to corpses is not as high as before, seeing the corpse again, Zhou Yunxi's mood is definitely not beautiful.

"What people!"

At this moment, a dark shadow flashed behind the two of them. Ling Xiao's kung fu was not low, and he noticed it immediately, but the person's speed was too fast, even if Ling Xiao noticed it, when he looked back, he only saw a pale gray figure.

After that, I didn't see anything.

"Not Zhuangzi's people." After hearing Ling Xiao say the color of the man's clothes, Zhou Yunxi pondered for a moment, and then said firmly, "The people in the Zhuangzi are all white. ”

"What if he changes his clothes?" Ling Xiao frowned, a little incomprehensible.

"There's not enough time."

Zhou Yunxi's tone was light, and his face was determined. Seeing this, although Ling Xiao was still suspicious in his heart, he didn't ask after all. He always felt that what Zhou Yunxi said was right.

As for why Zhou Yunxi is so sure, it is nothing more than because after the golden pasture space is upgraded, not only the land and crops will be put into the system, but even the people who work in Zhuangzi will also be included in the system.

Of course, the people who are included in the system have signed a deed of sale or a contract of work with Zhou Yunxi, and these contracts are put into the warehouse of the system by Zhou Yunxi, so that they can be scanned into the system for induction.

At the same time, it can also provide a small map in the Zhuangzi.

Such a discovery made Zhou Yunxi ecstatic before, after all, in this way, it was very easy to screen by looking at the number of people in Zhuangzi under his name.

The most important thing is to make it easier for Zhou Yunxi to control who is in the Zhuangzi. When the person left, Zhou Yunxi checked his system and found that there were many people in Zhuangzi.

It is not difficult to judge whether that person is a person from Zhuangzi or not.

"Miss, why don't I go and investigate first?" Ling Xiao thought about it, but he was not at ease.

"Let's go to the Hou Mansion first." Zhou Yunxi replied simply, not giving Ling Xiao the slightest room to refuse, "Sending medicine is more important." Even if that person is a Zhuangzi person, he can't make waves. ”

This was a little comforting, and Ling Xiao suddenly realized that he was sent by Qin Fengyi to protect Zhou Yunxi, if he left at this time, it would be enough to leave his post without permission, if Zhou Yunxi was to blame for all deaths.

Although his reaction just now also had a tendency to ignore Zhou Yunxi's orders, after realizing his 'mission', Ling Xiao put himself in the right position.

Zhou Yunxi is not just a young lady, but also Qin Fengyi's future wife.

"Phew—"

"Miss, the master saw that you hadn't arrived for a long time, so he sent me to pick you up." The person who spoke was setting up a carriage, and at first glance he was dressed as a guard of the Hou Mansion, "Commander Ling." ”

"You know?"

"The guards beside Master Hou must be to reassure the young lady, so Master Hou and Master will let him come." Ling Xiao nodded slightly at the guards, "Tired." ”

Although Zhou Yunxi recognized the clothes of the Hou Mansion, he still asked Ling Xiao for the sake of insurance. After seeing Ling Xiao say this, he walked towards the carriage.
