In her memory, all along, she was in charge of the affairs of the big house, but this time it landed on her out of thin air, this subtle feeling was very exciting, so excited that she forgot about it.

Since the eldest lady has agreed to let herself go, why not leave now, Bai Cui came out of the front hall, and her mind was thinking about leaving.

Seeing that the lights were already in place, and several mothers-in-law on the stove were still busy, Bai Cui hesitated for a while, and did not come forward to help, but went back to the room and began to pack up his things, preparing to leave tomorrow.

In the front hall, Sixi pulled out the wick and wondered: "Since Miss is suspicious of her, why do you want to let her go?" ”

Lin Mei rubbed her temples and whispered: "Today's events are too strange, first the gangsters kidnapped the second sister, then the firewood room caught fire, and finally Brother Huai was lost, it seems to be carefully planned, but if you think about it carefully, it seems to be done by the same group." ”

Sixi paused slightly, only to feel that his back was cold little by little: "It's strange to say, I was standing with the second miss, and the villain could recognize the second miss as the master at a glance and I was a slave." The second lady doesn't go out often, if there is no ghost in the house, how can the wicked know?! I think even if she hadn't betrayed the master's family, she shouldn't have been so cheap, she couldn't even guard the door well, why should she be put out again, look at where her old face goes! ”

Lin Mei's face turned cold, "I will definitely not let her go in vain, tomorrow you will find a way to drag her for a few days, if this matter is related to her, if she is willing to stay, I don't want to be that wicked person, if she insists on leaving...... Don't blame me for not being emotional. ”

"That's no problem, she's such a money-greedy person, she should also give out a monthly amount of silver in three days, unless she doesn't even want it." After Sixi finished speaking, he fully understood the master's intentions, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and asked, "Do you want to send someone to keep an eye on her?" ”

"Naturally, I have to keep an eye on it, and I've already arranged it at this time, counting the hours, the nighthawk should be back soon."

Sixi's face was slightly red, but he was a little regretful: "If he is here today, how dare those villains be so rampant, Miss will let him guard the courtyard in the future." ”

Lin Mei didn't say anything, just looked at her in silence.

……

The next day, Father Lin dragged back to Lin's house with heavy steps, saw Lin Mei's pale face, and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" Can Brother Huai find it? ”

Lin Mei shook her head: "What is the result of the interrogation, there are clues." ”

Daddy Lin's face sank, and he stopped talking.

Lin Mei's heart jumped, and she preemptively said: "What can't be said between our father and daughter, you don't often say that you don't have anything to do, don't be afraid of trouble, and don't do bad things." ”

"This matter is more tricky, and I don't know if what the man said is true or not, but it's good that you know it in your heart, Lao Qin Tou used some means, and that person confided that it was the Liu family who spent five hundred taels of silver to let him put medicine in the well, and then took you away while you were unconscious, but unfortunately it was broken by Xi Yatou, and you know what happened later."

The Liu family?

Lin Mei fell into deep thought after hearing this.

Father Lin was bitter in his heart, don't say that the Liu family is now ascending to the sky, but the Lin family is not bad now, if his Liu family is not happy, it is better to directly explain to the emperor that the family affairs are withdrawn, why bother to take every step of the way, and the organs are exhausted.

His own girl doesn't have to marry his Liu family.

Daddy Lin had a quick temper, paced a few steps, looked at his daughter bowed her head and was silent, her face was even more pale, and finally squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "No, let's quit!" ”

Lin Mei let out an absent-hearted "um", she couldn't see any expression, and Daddy Lin was even more iron-hearted.

"I'll go to Beijing now and find the Liu family to retreat, I don't believe that there is no royal law in this world."

Daddy Lin is a man of his word, and as soon as his words fell, he raised his feet and walked out.

Lin Mei came back to her senses at this time, dragged him in time, looked at him seriously and said: "Daddy, don't worry, I think about going to the Liu family and have no motive to attack the Lin family at present, my daughter thinks that the person is lying, or you accompany me to the guard station first, I want to ask him a few words." ”

Father Lin frowned: "The guard is full of old men, and the dungeon is not a good place, so you can go, if you have anything to say, let me help you ask." ”

"For some words, it's better for my daughter to ask in person, maybe I can find clues about Brother Huai."

Father Lin thought for a while, nodded and agreed, but he had to let her change into men's clothes.

After a pillar of incense, Father Lin took Lin Mei to find Old Qin.

Old Qin Tou, who was the leader of the guards yesterday, saw his father and daughter coming to the door, and exclaimed: "Why did you get here, but what happened?" ”

Father Lin looked helpless, arched his hand, and said ashamedly: "Disaster fell from the sky, the Lin family doesn't know who to offend, yesterday I set a fire in the Lin family, and almost didn't burn the entire Lin family. ”

Old Qin Tou gasped when he heard this, and his eyes flashed: "Is there any royal law here, and the person surnamed Liu dares to cover the sky with one hand?" If it doesn't work, let's go to Dali Temple to sue him, your house is also out of Beijing, so I'm afraid that he won't succeed! ”

Father Lin waved his hand and said embarrassedly: "There is no evidence, we can't talk nonsense, let's wait until we figure it out." ”

These words have another meaning in the ears of Lao Qintou, the Lin family is a civil official, the Liu family is a martial family, and it is unreasonable to meet soldiers since ancient times, not to mention that the two families have to get married......

Lao Qintou was soft in receiving the silver ticket yesterday, and it was not easy to refuse today, so he nodded, and said: "Okay, I'll take you there, it's better to come early than to come soon, this person will be sent to the Yamen prison in the afternoon." If you have any questions, it's best to finish them all at once, if you still want to ask questions in the prison in the yamen, I can't help you. ”

I only heard that the yamen handled the case, how could there be guards handling the case? Yesterday was just a coincidence, when Lao Qin and the others saw that there was money to collect, they made up a rebel's hat and fastened it on the head of the gangster. Now that it has been found out that it is not true, according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, it has been reported to the yamen, and it is waiting for the yamen to send someone to receive it in the afternoon.

The prison of the guard is very simple, not so much a prison as a basement, the location is under the city wall, it is not usually used, several cells are vacant, and Yuan Ji alone occupies one.

Old Qin Tou was only responsible for bringing people to him, and he didn't care about anything else, and after telling him not to kill people, he retreated alone.

Lin Mei took a closer look, there were no torture instruments on the four walls of the prison, and she couldn't help frowning when she saw that there was only a slight injury on his face.

"What else do you want to do, I've said everything you need to say." Motoyoshi said as he hid in the corner.

Father Lin stepped forward and dragged the person up, punched him in the abdomen a few times, and let out his breath first.

Lin Mei saw that the fight was almost over, so she stepped forward and asked, "You said that the Liu family hired you, then let me ask you, who hired you from the Liu family?" ”

Yuan Ji knew the Liu family, but he just obeyed the master's will to blame the Liu family. At this time, he insisted that it was hired by the Liu family, and he didn't know who the Liu family was.

Lin Mei sneered: "You keep saying that it is the Liu family, but you don't even know the surname and name, who knows if you deliberately planted it for the Liu family!" Hmph, I have sent someone to Liu's Mansion to investigate, if it is confirmed that it was not Liu's Mansion, do you know what will happen to you? Do you think General Liu will easily let go of the person who framed Liu's mansion? ”
