Without bothering to talk to them, Chen Youyi walked towards the forest, and saw that the ground was full of peach branches dug from the trees, and the places where the trees on the hill were originally grafted had been cut and cut off a large piece, leaving the trunk exposed.

"Who did this?" Chen Youyi roared angrily, she had never lost her temper like this, which startled everyone around her.

Wang Da took the initiative to step forward and said, "We got off work yesterday and were fine, but as soon as we came over this morning, we saw this situation, and I don't know who did it, so I asked these people who went to work to stop first and hurry back to tell you." ”

"Go to the official and call Master Xu over. I'm going to have to find out who did it. Chen Youyi held Xue'er's hand tightly and gritted her teeth with hatred, her scarlet eyes looked at the peach branches that were cut off one by one on the ground, and she was extremely distressed.

This is more than two months of hard work, running around every day early and returning late, not only have I invested too much in these, but there are people who use such means behind their backs.

Her mind was a little messy, if it was usually at this time, she would definitely call Qin Ziheng over, ask him to support herself, and let him help her solve these problems.

But now he is not here at all, and everything can only be done on his own.

She paced back and forth in the peach grove, and instructed the people who went to work, "Go and count them, and see how many grafted branches have been cut off in this way, and tell me all of them in a moment." ”

The workers hurriedly ran to check, and Chen Youyi kept telling herself in her heart that she must calm down, there must be a murderer in this matter. Now it's time to find out who did this behind the scenes.

She began to look around along the edgeless edge of the Peach Grove, and found a few unfamiliar footprints, still fresh, and she ordered people not to go near them.

"Sister-in-law, sit down and rest for a while, your face is ugly now." Cher helped her to persuade.

Chen Youyi also felt a little physically and mentally exhausted, but she couldn't leave here yet, so she sat down on the grass on the side.

It wasn't until she saw Xu Linfeng coming here with someone from a distance that she stood up again, and when Xu Linfeng's sedan chair landed, she hurried over, "Lord Xu is here ......"

Xu Linfeng raised his hand to stop her words, his face looked a little worried, "Your people on the road have already told me about the situation, now let's see if there are any clues to solve the case." ”

Later, Xu Linfeng and Chen Youyi took a few officials around the dense peach forest, and indeed found a lot of fresh footprints, and he asked the painter to draw those footprints.

"Judging from these footprints, they should have come on foot, which means that these people should be people from the vicinity of the village, and the farthest away is the town." Xu Linfeng analyzed, glanced back at Chen Youyi, and now her face has calmed down, but it is the same as usual.

This made him a little admired, if it was an ordinary woman's family, she was afraid of sitting on the ground and crying at a loss when she encountered such a thing, she could be so calm, Princess Chen Guo is indeed different from ordinary people.

"Have you ever had a conflict with someone recently, or was it a conflict? No matter how big or small, tell me in detail. ”

She thought about it seriously, her brows were tightly locked, but she couldn't think of anything, "Recently, I have been busy with the affairs of the Dense Peach Forest, and I have only met with Master Yuanjue in the mountains a few times, and then I went to the town to collect the accounts in the restaurant, and I have seen few others, let alone any contradictions." ”

Chen Youyi was the first to think of He Miaomiao, after all, she had done similar things to herself before, but now that she and Miao Miao are going to marry into the Liu family in the town, where do they still have the heart to take revenge on themselves.

I'm afraid she won't be able to hide from herself, in case the matter between her and Qin Ziheng reached the ears of the young master of the Liu family, I am afraid that she, the young lady, will not be able to do it.

"If you think about it again, haven't you really offended anyone?"

After a moment of silence, she shook her head, "I really haven't offended anyone, and what I've seen recently is only from the village or the temple. It's all familiar with each other on weekdays, and if you have a grudge, you won't wait until this time to make a move. ”

"But when I was recruiting, I had some quarrels with several ladies in the village, but they were all women's families, and the men and sons of the family were either disabled or joined the army, so they would never do such a thing."

Xu Linfeng also recognized this, he looked around again, climbed a high slope to check the surrounding environment, and Chen Youyi also followed, "What clues do you have, adult?" ”

"Judging from those footprints, it should be a few men, if a woman can't do these things overnight, but if it's a man, who in this town and village will deliberately come here to make trouble for you?" His gaze finally fell on her.

She just shook her head, not having the slightest clue.

"I'll investigate this matter, and if you think of something, you must come and tell me. Also, be careful about this situation, and if you need any help, just ask. ”

After that, Xu Linfeng left here with his subordinates, and when he got on the sedan chair, he instructed the officials around him, "Investigate in several surrounding villages to see if there are any men who have not joined the army. ”

Chen Youyi has been staying in the peach forest, and Xue'er has been persuading her to go back, but she has never left.

"I'm going to stay here at this time and know the final result." Her face was pale, she no longer had the panic she had before, and she seriously checked the victimization.

The other workers followed her, and after a while, Wang Da reported the statistics and said, "Qin Niangzi, about half of our grafted peach branches have been dug up." ”

As if she hadn't heard him, Chen Youyi continued to inspect the bark of a tree that had been dug up.

Wang Da was stunned, leaned forward curiously, and said, "Qin Niangzi!"

"I see!" Chen Youyi said in a low voice, "These people just dug up the bark and dug up the peach branches directly, but they didn't damage the peach branches, so they just need to find another grafting opening." As long as there are peach branches, grafting is okay. ”

Wang Dazheng was stunned, thinking about what she meant, Chen Youyi had already turned around and instructed the workers to start work, "You collect all the peach branches that fell on the ground, and you must put away all the peach branches today." ”

Those people heard it but didn't seem to understand what Chen Youyi meant, but fortunately, Wang Da reacted quickly and hurriedly instructed them to collect the peach branches scattered on the ground.
