Chapter 440: Surrender
Zhi Ling looked at Liu Xiaoyun and did not hide the fact that he knew martial arts, "Mama Liu also saw that I have some martial arts background, I just left the Lu Mansion with my front foot, and before I touched the door of the British Mansion, I found that I was being followed." ”
Liu Xiaoyun gasped, "You, when did you arrive in the capital?" ”
"The first day of the second month of the sixth year of Xianfeng." Zhi Ling replied.
"At that time, Guizhi had only been gone for half a month, no wonder it would follow you." Liu Xiaoyun muttered to himself.
"I hid, then I found a beggar, asked her to pick up a little, stuffed some money, and let her go to the British Mansion, and said that it was a distant relative of my mother-in-law, and I was watching it myself, and sure enough, someone was eyeing it."
"People in the British government said that my mother-in-law and her granddaughter left a few years ago, and I knew that something must have happened." Zhi Ling said sadly, "And the beggar I was looking for was killed not long after he left the British Mansion, I know, something is wrong." ”
"But I just arrived in the capital, and my ability is limited, so I can only investigate incognito." Zhi Ling said eloquently, "I entered the Lu Mansion with my idea, gained the trust of Lu Ge Lao, and slowly investigated the truth clearly. ”
"But I only know part of it, and I haven't found out the reason why Elder Lu Ge must kill my mother-in-law." Zhi Ling sighed.
"Actually, within a year of entering the Lu Mansion, I found out that Caiju was at Mama Liu's house, but she became your granddaughter Cao'er, I think there must be a reason, and I don't dare to look for you rashly, and I can't recognize Caiju, I don't want her to be in danger again." Zhi Ling said.
"I was able to come to the British Mansion this time because I wanted to find out the truth that I didn't know yet, and the fifth lady of the British Mansion was deeply related to the events of that year." Zhi Ling said, "Since I am no longer in the Lu Mansion now, I think I have to thank Mama Liu, and I also ask Mama Liu to tell me what I know." ”
"I can recognize Caiju because she has a brown birthmark on her ankle and a silver lock on her body, which I put on her personally." Zhi Ling's words made Mama Liu completely lose her suspicion.
Knowing that Zhiling was on her side, Mama Liu was shocked into a cold sweat and took it back, and said everything that she didn't hide from Guizhi back then.
After Zhi Ling knew that Mama Liu's granddaughter Cao'er was killed as her own Caiju, she apologized even more to Mama Liu, and was stopped by her when she was about to kneel down again.
"Hey, I regretted it at the beginning, but I didn't expect it to be just caring about Guizhi, and even my granddaughter lost her life." Liu Xiaoyun lamented, "But compared with Gui Zhi, our family is much happier, Gui Zhi herself was implicated, she died for the sake of the young grandmother." ”
"Gui Zhi didn't say much back then, in addition to knowing that it was Lu Ge who harmed him, he also harmed the eldest young grandmother and the fifth lady of the British Mansion, thinking that there must be some big secret that was discovered before he was killed." Liu Xiaoyun said, "We don't have the ability, and we haven't thought about investigating, you are a powerful person, but you must be careful, you must pay more attention to the Shiyu Academy, the people inside are all from the Lu Mansion, and we don't know if they are people or ghosts." ”
Liu Xiaoyun's advice made Zhi Ling's heart warm, and it was also a blessing for her daughter to be in such a family.
"Mama Liu, you go to sleep quickly, I'll go back first, Mama Tu, the servant woman who does the sprinkling and sweeping in the Poetry Academy, is from Lu Mansion, you talked to me today, you pay more attention to yourself." After Zhi Ling finished speaking, he took advantage of the night and went back with the thunder.
Seeing Zhi Ling's neat movements, Liu Xiaoyun secretly sighed that Gui Zhi's daughter-in-law was a powerful one, and let go of her heart, knowing that it was her own person, this night, Liu Xiaoyun slept exceptionally well.
The next day, Liu Xiaoyun woke up, and saw that Zhi Ling was still as cold as ever in the Poetry Academy, and he ignored the greetings of others.
Liu Xiaoyun's appearance made Zhi Ling feel relieved, and sure enough, he didn't see the wrong person, he was a person who could hide things.
Zhi Ling didn't do it for a long time, Lu Ge Lao couldn't bear it anymore, and asked Zhi Ling to leave the British Mansion through Mama Tu, and the two met in the tea shop.
"Why don't you do it yet?" Lu Ge Lao looked at Zhi Ling and asked.
Zhi Ling's expression didn't change much, and the light smile that had been on his lips made Lu Ge Lao ease his mood a little.
"Back to the old pavilion, there is no chance yet." Zhi Ling replied, "The slave maid now enters the inner courtyard from the front yard, and is on an errand in the poetry courtyard, Qingchen Zhai is a certain distance away from the poetry courtyard, the slave and maid have to bypass, the fifth lady of the British Mansion is protected by a master, and in secret, the three maids around him are practicing the family at a glance, so they come hard, the slave and maid have no success, so they can only find opportunities." ”
"Do you think the people around Hua Qinghe can fight against the Che brothers?" Elder Lu Ge asked.
Zhi Ling smiled, "How is it possible, the kung fu of the Che brothers is what ordinary people are against, those who hide in the shadows, the slaves and maids can find out, and they will definitely not be the opponents of the Che brothers." ”
Lu Ge Lao was half relieved when he heard this.
"Elder Ge, don't you have any news yet?" Zhi Ling asked in a low voice.
Lu Ge Lao shook his head, "Forget it, even if you find it, it's useless." ”
Zhi Ling was sarcastic in his heart, and his face was not obvious, "The slave went back." ”
"Well, go ahead." Elder Lu Ge waved his hand and advised, "As soon as possible, don't make me wait too long." ”
"Yes."
Zhi Ling's current purpose is to investigate the things that make Lu Ge Lao jealous, and if she wants to investigate well in the British Mansion, she must first surrender to them.
However, before taking action, Zhi Ling first found Mama Liu, after all, if she wanted to tell the story of the year, she had to get the consent of the parties.
"Mama Liu, we will explain the truth to the prince of England and investigate the events of the year, do you think it is feasible?" Zhi Ling asked.
"Do you want to say it?" Liu Xiaoyun panicked, "If Elder Lu Ge knows, we will die." ”
"Don't worry, Lu Ge Lao has fewer people to use now, and this is our opportunity." Zhi Ling said, "At that time, as long as I avoid the eyes and ears of the Poetry Academy, I plan to start with the fifth miss." ”
"It's most appropriate for me to get close to her, and it's easy to make a deal with Lu Gelao, and to be able to explain it openly." Zhi Ling said with a smile.
Liu Xiaoyun can't deny that this method is the safest at present, but his heart just can't relax, and what he thinks of in his mind is what happened back then.
Zhi Ling knew Liu Xiaoyun's scruples, "Mama Liu, you have to think about it, if my mother could have surrendered to the British Mansion, she would not have died in vain, of course she has no ability to fight against the Lu Mansion, but the British Mansion has, what the Lv Mansion wants to harm now is the fifth lady of the British Mansion, the two families are hostile, and small people like us are not a big target in it, of course, our own safety has to be protected." ”
"I have the ability to protect myself, Mama Liu, you don't have to, you don't need to come forward, I will say it together, of course, if the fifth lady wants to ask or ask you to prove it, Mama Liu has to testify, after all, I came into the house like this, there is no trust at all." Zhi Ling said.
