Chapter 300: Li Zheng is in Bikko

After that, Li and Nalan Jin clearly let everyone know that they had given up investigating the fire, but they were secretly re-investigating.

When Nalan Jin was investigating the fire, he accidentally found that Li Zheng was doing some shady things in Nalan Mansion.

Li Zheng deceived the upper and lower levels, fooled the people under the return mountain, and made those people in the mansion willing to take out the valuable things in their hands, and then let him take them out and sell them, and then make a profit from them.

And the little oil and water in the hands of these subordinates can't fill Li Zheng's greed at all. After a few turnovers, the valuable things in the hands of those subordinates were exchanged for fleeting silver.

"I have nothing of value in my hand, and I have spent all the money I have sold."

"Mine too, if I had known that this was the case, I wouldn't have sold that jade pendant, it was the only thing my mother left me."

"Me too, that's a token that my mother left for her future lady."

The subordinates chattered around Li Zheng for a long time, all of them were dissatisfied, and some even asked Li Zheng to redeem what he had sold before.

Of course, Li Zheng didn't want the silver in his hand to be taken away like this, so he tried to convince those people.

With blood in his mouth, he took out his silver to bribe those subordinates in Nalan Mansion, so that they could quietly steal some of the previous things from the master's house where he was and sell them.

Because he is a distant relative of Dongfang Yi, Li Zheng is sometimes more convenient than a housekeeper in the mansion.

Anyway, he is also the master of Nalan Mansion, and he still speaks with a little breeze.

The most important thing is that although Nalan Zhen is no longer in this Nalan Mansion, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and there are still some valuable things.

Li Zheng happened to take advantage of his convenience to find a suitable passage for those things to leave the mansion and leave the Nalan Mansion.

At first, Nalan Jin didn't notice it, but then slowly listened to some subordinates react that Li Zheng accepted bribes and filled his pockets.

"Miss, you really should be in charge, it's not that we do this and are too talkative, it's really Li Zheng who is too arrogant, relying on his aunt's relatives to bully us often."

"Yes, miss, Li Zheng has been even more terrible recently, and some people have even seen him take valuables from the house."

"That's right, miss, I've seen it several times."

Nalan Jin listened to the statement of his subordinates, and remembered that he had met Li Zheng sneakily before, and he was still holding something in his hand, and he thought that he had misunderstood Li Zheng.

The heart of a villain is the belly of a gentleman.

Now it seems that there is a nose and an eye.

"Have you ever mentioned this matter to your uncle?" Nalan Jin thought for a moment and asked.

"Not yet, we think it's better to talk to Miss first."

"yes."

It is necessary to change a few people who look at each other, although they are not used to Li Zheng's approach. But for the sake of Dongfang Yi's face, it is better to go first

It's a good idea to consider finding yourself a backer.

"You've done a very good job. Don't tell him about my uncle, I'll tell him about it myself. Nalan Jin thought about it seriously for a while, and then told the people who knew about it.

"Yes, miss."

Nalan Jin observed secretly for a long time and found that Li Zheng's courage was getting bigger and bigger. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in Nalan Zhen's house, he sold the antiques that he had collected for so many years and sold them bit by bit.

When Li Zheng was stealing valuables from the mansion, he happened to bump into Li who was investigating the fire.

Both of them bumped into each other in an embarrassing situation, Li Zheng looked at Li in fright, and Li stared at him suspiciously.

Li reacted subconsciously, thinking that Li Zheng was the person sent by the housekeeper to disturb the sight in the mansion, so he had an extra heart for him.

"Isn't this Li Zheng, a distant relative of the East? I heard that you are working in the workshop, but you are not in the workshop at this point, what are you doing in the backyard of this house? Li Shi looked at Li Zheng vigilantly.

Li Zheng saw that Li was staring at him, and knew that the person who came was not good, so he carefully handled the relationship between them.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, it was Dongfang who asked me to come back and get an account book, and I was about to send it to him." Li Zheng replied cautiously.

"Really? Jin'er's room seems to be 108,000 miles away from here, how did you get from that side to this side? Li looked at the houses on both sides, and they were completely at odds.

"Oh, no wonder I said that I couldn't find it after looking for a long time, it's all because this house is too big, and I don't know the way for a while." Li Zheng smiled and lengthened his tone, alleviating his guilt as a thief.

"Really?" Li Shi looked at Li Zheng and didn't believe what he said at all.

"Dongfang is still in a hurry to get the account book, so I will send it to him quickly, and come back another day to catch up."

Li Zheng hurriedly found an excuse to take the opportunity to get himself out. Sooner or later, Eri's sharp eyes would have to see a little bit of an eyebrow in his dodgy eyes.

Li looked at Li Zheng's back as he fled in a hurry, and felt that there must be something wrong with this person.

So he hurried to find Nalan Jin.

Nalan Jin is still sorting out some old account books, which are all left by Nalan Zhen before his death. This made her unconsciously think of Nalan Zhen again, and her eyes were red and swollen.

"Jin'er!" Li Shi walked into the room and shouted, interrupting Nalan Jin's melancholy thoughts.

"Ahh What's going on again? Nalan Jin shouted in fright.

"It's okay, it's not right, it's something, it's not, what's wrong with you, have you ever cried? Did you quarrel with the East? Li looked at Nalan Jin's expression a little wrong.

"No, don't think about it, little aunt, is there something wrong with coming over suddenly?" Nalan Jin rubbed her eyes and shook her head, her smile was rigid, without any emotion.

"I'm here to ......" Li Shi was afraid that the third person present would know, so he glanced outside vigilantly, "I found some evidence about the fire, although there is no direct evidence of this

All the clues pointed the finger at the butler. So he's by far the biggest suspect. ”

Li made a confession from the mouths of his subordinates and those who had contact with the housekeeper outside, and asked them to sign and draw them. Simple Nalan Jin's hand, let her see it for herself.

Nalan Jin took a look at the evidence you brought and said that it was almost not much different from what she found.

"The little aunt has worked hard, and I will handle the rest of the matter personally, so don't interfere with the little aunt." Nalan Jin was worried about the persecution of the Li family's toilet housekeeper and asked her to withdraw from the investigation.

"Why, I first put this evidence, just for the sake of my son, I will never quit. And I want you to help me when I need you. Li Shi stood up excitedly and looked at Nalan Jin.

"I will." Nalan Jin nodded.

Li Shi took two steps, stopped and hesitated for a long time before turning around, Nalan Jin looked at her suspiciously, thinking that what he had just said hurt her a little seriously.

"Little aunt, is there anything else?" Nalan Jin asked incomprehensibly.

"There is something I don't know, whether to say it or not, I found that Li Zheng has a big problem." Li frowned.

"Is there anything he can't do with his little aunt?" Nalan Jin looked at Li worriedly.

If Li Zheng really did something immoral, Nalan Jin would definitely be the first to not let him go.

"Just now I saw him sneaking over from the direction of the old man's house, I asked him, he is with you Dongfang to take the account book, originally I don't want to interfere in the affairs between your husband and wife, just give you a piece of advice, I still have something to do, so I will leave first" Li shrugged his shoulders and left helplessly.

Just as he was leaving, Li was still walking and wondering if he really managed too much, maybe the husband and wife just talked about each other.

The words of the previous subordinates made Nalan Jin hesitate, but Li Yes's words made Nalan Jin die.

In the evening, when Dongfang Yi came back, Nalan Jin told Dongfang Yi about Li Zheng, hoping to attract his attention.

"This can't be, Jin'er, is there any misunderstanding between you? Although Li Zheng is a little greedy, he is definitely not what you said. Dongfang Yi fundamentally believed Nalan Jin's words.

Nalan Jin gritted her teeth and took a deep breath, feeling that Dongfang Yi was really blinded by the word "relative".

"Do you think I need to frame him? What the next person said before, you can take it as slander, is what the little aunt said today also slander? Nalan Jin was a little excited, and her voice naturally rose a degree.

"But even then, not necessarily, right?" Dongfang Yi has no confidence in explaining.

"Dongfang, I'm awake, it's just to polish your eyes and see clearly, you know people and faces, you haven't seen Li Zheng for so long. Do you really know him? Nalan Jin held his chest and hinted.

Dongfang Yi still didn't make any reaction, and Nalan Jin turned angrily

Leaving Dongfang Yi alone to guard the empty room.

He thought about it for a long time, and the last purchase made Dongfang Yi's heart always have a vague feeling in the middle of the week, but he didn't want to believe it.

So Dongfang Yi planned to test Li Zheng again.

"This is the address, you go and collect the debt, and then go to the west of the city to settle the account, come back and give me a detailed list, and let Xiaosi go with you." Dongfang Yi used rent collection to cast a big net for Li Zheng.

"Okay, don't worry, I've been here for a long time. It doesn't matter if you know me and go alone. Li Zheng glanced at the debt and refused to go with him.

"Okay then, be careful to go early and return early on the road." Dongfang Yi secretly sweated to himself.

I really don't want Li Zheng to be the person Nalan Jin said.

As a result, the debts recovered were more than double the amount collected by Dongfang Yi before.

As a result, Dongfang Yi's mind began to slowly believe what Nalan Jin said.

Dongfang Yi wanted to kill two birds with one stone, so he called the housekeeper and told him about Li Zheng's embezzlement of the workshop.
