Chapter 158: Riding Together
Huo Xiaoting heard this whistle and quickly glanced out the window.
Li Cha knew that this whistle was a signal for him to contact his subordinates.
"You wait here for me first, and I'll come back to pick you up right away."
"I'm not in a hurry." Li Qia sat on the small pestle with his legs crossed and waited for him.
His subordinates came to look for him at this time, and they must have heard some news, and it should be related to Lord Zhang.
Huo Xiaoting quickly flashed out of the door, there was no light in the courtyard, and Li Qia had no way of knowing if he had walked far.
However, she has just eaten enough, and the aroma of hand-rolled noodles with bacon and capers in the kitchen has not yet dissipated, and the smell is endless.
In less than a cup of tea, Huo Xiaoting reappeared in Li Cha's field of vision.
Unlike the satisfied look on his face just after eating noodles, his eyebrows seemed to be stained with a layer of frost, which instantly dispelled the relaxed atmosphere when he had just eaten noodles in the house.
Li Cha also immediately stood up from the pestle and asked, "Did something happen?" ”
"I asked Qiu Ze to pay attention to the news from the Criminal Department, just now he came to tell me......"
"Is it Lord Zhang?" Li Qia frowned, and had a very bad premonition.
Huo Xiaoting's expression was also very solemn, "Master Zhang committed suicide in prison. ”
Li Cha's mind immediately remembered that day in Liangshan, Master Zhang recorded in his small notebook with a radiant look.
Master Zhang has always been a pillar of the country who is not afraid of the powerful......
Although he was mentally prepared, Li Cha staggered back and kicked over the small pestle behind him.
In his previous life, Li Jiuye also found his own short sword after being imprisoned, but that was a few days after he was arrested.
I didn't expect Lord Zhang to be taken away during the day, and he ...... at night Li Cha only felt a buzzing sound in his head, and his thoughts became confused.
She quickly withdrew a trace of clarity in the confusion and asked, "How did Master Zhang kill himself?" ”
"There were guards patrolling, and Lord Zhang suddenly pulled out the knife on the guard's body and inserted it into his chest."
Li Cha was so shocked again that he was almost speechless, Master Zhang was almost the same as Li Jiuye's death in his previous life.
"Are you okay?" Huo Xiaoting saw that Li Cha's face was pale, so he stretched out his hand to probe her forehead.
Li Cha was already in a bad mood, so he slapped his hand away, "I'm fine." ”
She took another step back from her uninjured foot and leaned her weight against the side of the board, calming her shocked and panicked mind.
Just like Li Jiuye in his previous life, now that Master Zhang is dead, the Criminal Department will not investigate his case further, and the questioning from above is just the result of committing suicide in fear of crime.
But what about the big invisible hand behind his back?
It was the hand of darkness that had not been pulled out in a previous life.
This also has a lot to do with Master Zhang's suicide.
"You're going to do an autopsy, right?" She couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, but the autopsy papers shouldn't have come out so soon. I don't believe that Master Zhang will kill himself. He also has his own judgment.
Li Qia bowed his head, and did not disagree with him this time.
"Do you remember Master Zhang's left hand?" He snapped again.
She also suddenly remembered that that day in Liangshan, Master Zhang did write with a pen in his left hand.
Li Cha quickly thought of something, "You mean that you can tell whether Master Zhang committed suicide by the wound?" ”
Huo Xiaoting bowed his head, then he had to see Lord Zhang's body with his own eyes.
"Then go check it out." Li Cha immediately chimed in.
Huo Xiaoting: "......" If it is a little lady from another family, she has to show a little horror when she hears a corpse or something, why does this person from his family have a fine light in his eyes when he hears this?
However, his Xiaojiu has always taken the route of an ordinary little lady, which he knows deeply.
Huo Xiaoting quickly retracted his thoughts, "If you want to know, I will definitely find out." What she wanted to know was not what he was thinking.
"You give me the address of Mrs. Zhang's maiden house."
"How you do it yourself, or I'll take you there tomorrow." He said.
The two discussed when and where they would meet tomorrow, and Huo Xiaoting urged her to hurry back to the house to rest.
Then he took her out of Zhangfu in the same way as when she came in, and Li Cha was able to fly again under his "clamping".
Huanhuan was still under the tree, flicking her tail and circling around the tree, and when she heard their voices, she hurriedly accelerated the speed of sweeping her tail and ran to her feet, whining to express her worries and dissatisfaction.
After Li Cha stabilized, he bent down and rubbed its snow-white long hair, and picked up the crutch standing by the tree.
"Now I can go by myself, you can go back." Li Cha waved his hand and tried to send Huo Xiaoting away.
"You want to turn back like this?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.
Only then did Li Cha realize that she did not have a carriage back to the Li Mansion.
If she really turns back as Huo Xiaoting said, I'm afraid she won't be able to go home after dawn.
He had already led the horse, "For the sake of you ordering me a bowl of noodles tonight, I can send you back." ”
"So I have to thank you?" Li Cha raised an eyebrow and looked at him.
His eyes as bright as stars flashed slightly, "That's not necessary, after all, I didn't say thank you when I ate noodles." ”
As he spoke, he walked up to her side, and without saying a word, he put the man on horseback.
And Huanhuan flattered him with his tail at his feet, screaming.
Huanhuan always looks like he is obsessed with flowers, what is this?
Li Cha supported his forehead, it was really embarrassing to throw it home.
"It's okay." Huo Xiaoting instructed her, and then bent over and picked up Huanhuan and sent him to her arms, and then he was about to get on the horse.
"You're going to get on the horse too?" Li Cha stared at the big apricot eyes.
"Or will you ride?" He asked with an oath.
This stopped her.
She could climb trees and go to the house, but she didn't have time to learn to ride a horse.
"Want me to lead you back?"
What do you mean to lead her back, shouldn't you lead the horse?
Li Cha gave him a displeased look.
But if you really lead it back, I'm afraid it will take an hour or two.
Calculate that she has been out for two hours, if the jade pendant really wakes up and finds that she is gone, the third room of the Li family will not be able to turn the sky upside down.
As she was thinking, he had jumped on his horse and took the reins from behind her.
"Why are you sitting behind me?" The two are now next to each other, and this posture makes Li Cha very cramped and uneasy.
The picture of her previous life suddenly crossed in her mind, and it turned out that after Li Qia married Huo Xiaoting, she had asked the latter to teach her to ride a horse.
At that time, Li Cha tried his best to let Huo Xiaoting ride with her.
But he always put on a serious face and said to her: "How can you learn to ride a horse by riding together?" ”
As everyone knows, she just wants to create opportunities to get close to him, so what does it matter if she can learn to ride a horse or not?
In this life, he has changed his personality?
