Chapter 502: Tell the Truth
When the maid heard this, she hesitated a little, how to answer this matter, if the answer is not good, the master and the eldest lady will definitely be unhappy.
Hou Zhongyi looked at the maid.
"You just tell the truth, I won't blame you if you say something wrong."
When the maid heard this, she pondered for a moment and spoke cautiously.
"Zhou Xinzhi is still very attentive to Miss, he will send Miss some small things every day, I like Miss very much, Zhou Xinzhi likes Miss's things, we all know it as maids, but Miss doesn't allow us to say more, and I usually have no contact with Zhou Xinzhi."
"Miss and Zhou Xinzhi haven't met a few times, and they have almost no contact."
What the maid said is true, her own lady really has no contact with Zhou Xinzhi, that is, they are all moved by Zhou Xinzhi, but her own young lady is not rare at all Zhou Xinzhi's things.
In front of him, Zhou Xinzhi had just sent something, and when he turned around, the eldest lady either threw the thing away, or rewarded them with these subordinates.
There are also things that I like to eat, but the eldest lady never looks at it, and she doesn't pay attention to it at all.
But when she came back this time, when the eldest lady heard about Zhou Xinzhi's matter, her attitude suddenly changed, making the maid wonder if she was thinking too much, but the eldest lady's attitude now is the same as before, and she doesn't seem to care about Zhou Xinzhi's matter at all, and the maid doesn't know what's going on.
The maid didn't have much to say about this matter.
Hou Zhongyi nodded when he heard this.
"You've been in the room with Miss? Did you leave the eldest lady halfway. ”
The maid hurriedly shook her head.
"No, Miss is a little scared, the slave has always been by Miss's side, and has never left half a step."
When the maid arrived at Zhou Xinzhi's room, she was very scared, knowing that several people had died here, she was scared to death, and she always felt that there was something unclean in the yard, and she was always furious in her heart, not to mention that the young lady didn't let her leave.
Even if she was really asked to leave, the maid didn't dare, so when she was in the room, she never left the young lady at all.
Hou Zhongyi nodded and looked at the maid with majesty in his eyes.
"If I ask you now, you have to answer honestly."
"When you were with the eldest lady, something strange happened, or something unusual."
"You think about this matter, you must think it through, do you hear?"
When the maid heard this, she hurriedly nodded, and recalled carefully, except for asking herself to find evidence, nothing seemed to have happened, and Miss had been crying since she entered Zhou Xinzhi's room.
After thinking about it for a while, the maid didn't think of anything strange, so she spoke immediately.
"The slave maid didn't find anything, the young lady asked the slave and the maid to find evidence, and the slave and maid searched Zhou Xinzhi's entire room, but found nothing, as for the young lady, she kept crying, and the slave didn't find anything abnormal."
Hou Zhongyi asked again.
"Have you really not left your house for a while?"
The maid hurriedly assured.
"The slave maid really never left Miss, not for a while, the slave maid has always been by Miss's side, and she has not gone anywhere."
Hou Zhongyi saw that the maid's appearance was extremely sincere, and it didn't look like he was lying at all, so he slowly spoke at the moment.
"Okay, I'm just worried about the safety of the eldest lady, since nothing happened, then you can go back and serve your young lady! As for this matter, remember not to tell your young lady, have you heard it? ”
The maid didn't dare not agree, and nodded directly and left.
Regarding the maid's sudden departure, Hou Xinxin didn't ask much at all, just looked at the night outside and muttered.
"You say, where will Zhou Xinzhi be now!"
"My father has been looking for so many days and has not found it, this Zhou Xinzhi can hide so deeply, where should he be able to hide!"
When the maid heard this, she didn't dare to say anything, after all, she didn't understand anything, and she didn't know Zhou Xinzhi, where did she know where Zhou Xinzhi would hide, but there was one thing, the maid knew.
"No matter where Zhou Xinzhi is hiding, he wants to eat, as long as we send people to look around, we will definitely find out."
"And Zhou Xinzhi should have a lot of enemies outside, we just need to spread the news and leave, and we don't need to make a move when the time comes, those people who Zhou Xinzhi offended will naturally go back to find Zhou Xinzhi."
The maid felt that her young lady's face was not good, and she probably didn't want to see Zhou Xinzhi, so she cautiously said such an idea, but after finishing speaking, she found that her young lady didn't speak, and she couldn't help but feel worried.
She really can't guess what her young lady is thinking now, whether she likes Zhou Xinzhi or hates Zhou Xinzhi, whether she wants Zhou Xinzhi to die or Zhou Xinzhi to prove her innocence.
After a while, Hou Xinxin suddenly smiled.
"You're right, as long as you release this news, you don't need us to do anything, Zhou Xinzhi will be found, you are really too smart, it is not in vain that Miss Ben will keep you by her side."
Among so many maids at the beginning, Hou Xinxin chose this maid, which was nothing more than a fancy for this maid's cleverness, and now it seems that it is really like this.
It's still a little clever.
The maid suddenly didn't understand, what kind of attitude was this of the young lady, and hesitated to speak.
"Miss, you are ......"
Hou Xinxin also knew that her attitude made the maid not know what to do, she looked up at the maid and chuckled.
"Usually you don't always say that Zhou Xinzhi is good in my ear, I just want to see who my maid's mind is towards, but you didn't disappoint me, although you helped Zhou Xinzhi say good things, but you also know what Zhou Xinzhi's identity is, and he is not worthy of Miss Ben at all."
When the maid heard this, she was shocked, she couldn't imagine that her young lady did so many things, just to test herself, fortunately, she didn't help Zhou Xinzhi speak, and she didn't even help the young lady to come up with ideas to help Zhou Xinzhi, otherwise, she wouldn't have a good end now.
Hou Xinxin looked at the maid with a frightened look on her face, and immediately smiled.
"Okay, Miss Ben already knows that you are sincere, you only have Miss Ben as the master in your heart, you have to remember in the future, Miss Ben's status is noble, how can a subordinate be worthy."
"Don't look at what Zhou Xinzhi's identity is, just you little maids, will be moved by those little favors, Miss Ben herself has no silver? Buy it for me with him. ”
If it is changed to sending clothes and jewelry every day, Hou Xinxin will really be moved, but unfortunately, every day only to send some things that cannot be put on the table, Hou Xinxin can see it, such a man is destined to be unproductive for a lifetime, how can a woman be willing to marry such a man.
Today I went to the place where Zhou Xinzhi lived, Hou Xinxin definitely followed a little bit more and more, look at the place where he lives, she has lived a life of fine clothes and food since she was a child, if she marries such a man and lives such a life, she will definitely have to suffer in the future.
Thinking that she might live that kind of hard life in the future, Hou Xinxin knew that her choice was not wrong.
Look, it's only been a long time before he gets into a life lawsuit, and if he gets into a bigger disaster in the future, it's hard to count on his father to help.
Men have no ability at all, so they can only deceive those girls who have never seen the world, thinking that a woman like her can only be worthy of those with noble status.
The maid was extremely happy in her heart, she was still wondering in her heart before, why did the young lady punish several maids who were serving around her in a row, she didn't understand what was going on before, but now the maid still completely understood, it must have been those maids who said good things about Zhou Xinzhi in front of the young lady.
Hou Xinxin looked at the maid with satisfaction in her eyes, this maid was the maid she valued the most, fortunately she didn't follow the confusion, otherwise, she really didn't know if she could trust the maid around her in the future.
"This thing is well done, this jewelry is for you, by the way, tomorrow morning, help me do something."
When the maid heard this, she immediately looked at Hou Xinxin.
"Miss, what should I do?"
Hou Xinxin chuckled and whispered a few times in the maid's ear, and the maid nodded again and again.
The next day, the people on the rivers and lakes began to look for Zhou Xinzhi's whereabouts, not only that, but there were people from all walks of life, including Zhou Xinzhi's enemies, and those who didn't know Zhou Xinzhi, all looking for Zhou Xinzhi, Ning An came back from the vegetable market, and went straight to Chi Yue's room and told Chi Yue about it.
When Chi Yue heard this, she was puzzled.
"What the hell is going on?"
"You said it in detail, why did the forces on the rivers and lakes start to look for the eldest brother, what does this matter have to do with the rivers and lakes?"
Since ancient times, the affairs of the imperial court have nothing to do with the rivers and lakes, and the rivers and lakes have never cared about the affairs of the officers and soldiers.
Hearing this, Ning An frowned and spoke.
"I don't know what's going on, it seems that there is a mysterious person, saying that he wants to offer a reward of 100,000 taels of silver to Zhou Xinzhi, as long as he can find Zhou Xinzhi, he can get 100,000 taels of silver."
100,000 taels of silver, how many people have never seen so much silver in their lives, after everyone heard this reward, they naturally didn't say a word, and helped find someone.
Chi Yue got up from the stool.
Mystery man?
It is very likely to be Zhou Xinzhi's enemy, after all, when Zhou Xinzhi helped Hou Zhongyi do things, he offended a lot of people, maybe it was those people who came to find Zhou Xinzhi's trouble.
It's just that no one knows about Zhou Xinzhi's news here at all, so she came up with such a solution.
But in this way, it will be troublesome, Zhou Xinzhi is only temporarily undiscovered, but it is difficult to ensure that no one in her house will find out.
If it gets out, it's going to be in trouble.
"Ning An, I can't let the old man know about today's matter, I want to go to the eldest brother and discuss how to deal with it, by the way, you go to His Royal Highness King Rong's mansion and tell His Royal Highness King Rong about this matter."
Hearing this, Ning An nodded, and left directly.
In the mansion of His Royal Highness King Rong, there is only the news that Zhou Xinzhi is here, and there are only a few people, and the subordinates don't know about it, and they are afraid of leaking the news.
