Chapter Thirty-Six: When the Enemy Sees Each Other, Their Eyes Are Red
Seeing that Su Xinyan's face was not good, Gu Fengjin smiled, "It's not early now, if you want to eat, go and talk to the housekeeper, and it's not too late to deal with these things in the afternoon." ”
After he finished speaking, he stood up and took General Pei behind him out of the room, with a chic and comfortable appearance, it didn't look like he was here to solve the case, but like he was coming to have fun.
Su Xinyan gritted her teeth, the booklet in her hand squealed, and she took a deep breath before suppressing her anger.
suffered a loss on the prince, she rubbed her chin, and thought a little unwillingly.
The other party has to pay back this account, and he can't always be the fun of being a prince!
Su Xinyan took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and then walked out of the door. Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the door, I saw a surprising scene.
In the corner of the courtyard, there were three or four sturdy servants beating a stray dog.
The hair on the stray dog's body was all sticky together, dirty, gray-headed and almost indistinguishable, only a piece of hair on his forehead was slightly convex, and he could vaguely see the majesty before, but now there was only a skinny like this.
The dog only whined and howled under the round-up of everyone, and lay on its stomach with its front paws on the ground, without the slightest intention of fighting back.
Su Xinyan couldn't help frowning when he saw this scene.
At this time, the housekeeper of the Lu Mansion passed by, and Su Xinyan hurriedly grabbed him and asked, "Butler, what's going on?" Why were these people chasing the dog? ”
The housekeeper glanced at it, and said helplessly: "We have no choice, and I don't know where this dog sneaked into Lu Mansion."
You see its dirty appearance, it really frightened a lot of young ladies and maids, I sent someone to drive it out of the past once, but it didn't work, it just sneaked back again!
In order to prevent it from hurting people, I had to order it to be killed. ”
At this time, there was a sudden wail, and it was the dog who couldn't dodge and was shot in the head.
The next moment, its body fell to the ground, blood streaming down its head, gluing its left eye together.
Su Xinyan was shocked, and hurriedly said, "Stop!" ”
Ignoring the other people's obstacles, she hurriedly ran over and squatted on the ground, trying to pick up the stray dog to heal. But he was blocked by one hand, and the man said: "Father-in-law Su, this dog is still fierce, don't be bitten by it!" ”
Su Xinyan shook his head, pushed his hand away, squatted down an arm's width away from the dog and asked, "Do you have something on your mind that is why you have always wanted to go home?" ”
The stray dog could not speak, but could only whimper in a low voice, as if begging, and fell to his knees on the ground.
It lowered its head to Su Xinyan and whined twice, and then pointed its head to a dark bush in the northwest corner of the courtyard, and then turned its head to look at Su Xinyan with those wet eyes, and his eyes were full of pleading.
Su Xinyan followed its gaze and didn't see anything except a weed, but she still said, "There's something there?" ”
The stray dog fell to the ground and barked twice with the last of its strength before closing its eyes.
Su Xinyan sighed, reached out and closed the eyes of the stray dog, and then stood up and walked to the grass he saw before.
There are a lot of plants planted by florists, and it is a small artificial flower bed, so few people go in.
As soon as Su Xinyan stepped in, she stepped on the dirt full of shoes, she bent down, brushed away the plants up to her knees, and saw a dirt pit from a damp and narrow place, and there was a puppy that had not yet been weaned in the dirt pit
She squatted down and picked up the little milk dog out of the pit, only to find that at this time, the puppy was so hungry that his chest was close to his back, and even his voice was very subtle.
Seeing this, Su Xinyan hurriedly sent someone to prepare some milk and pour it into the plate, feeding the puppy to eat it little by little.
When she had done all this, she found that the butler and the servants before her were still on the side.
The housekeeper said: "Duke Su's mansion is kind-hearted, and the old slave is very ashamed. However, the previous incident is indeed the duty, please don't blame the father-in-law. ”
Su Xinyan lowered his head, looked at the little milk dog who was gradually regaining his strength, and said in a voice without the slightest fluctuation: "I know, you don't have to explain this to me." Now I'm just a guest in the house, and you don't have to be taboo about me in this house. But I still want to persuade that all things have spirits, and the stewards should be better for these animals within their duties. ”
The butler nodded again and again, and paused for a while before he said, "Before, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that you have something to ask the slave, I don't know what the matter is?" ”
Su Xinyan took the handkerchief handed over by the maid, wiped off the milk stains on her fingers little by little, and handed the little milk dog back to the maid to take her to take a bath, and then turned her head to look at the housekeeper.
"Actually, it's not a big deal, I just want to ask about something. Think about it now, how your young lady is doing, who she got too close to, or which servants behaved particularly unusually before the accident. You have to do everything in detail, tell me 1510, it may be helpful to solve your young lady's case. ”
When she said this, she suddenly thought of the stray dog incident just now, and couldn't help frowning, "If the stray dogs really came in from an unknowing place before, there should be a lot of neglect in the house." You send someone to find out as soon as possible, otherwise it will be more troublesome to let the thieves escape. ”
After hearing this, the housekeeper hurriedly responded, and sent a few servants behind him to retreat to look for it, and when everyone else left, the housekeeper frowned and said.
"The master has always been cautious, and he doesn't like strangers to wander around the house, so every time he recruits newcomers, he is quite careful, and even if he recruits, he will not let them enter the inner courtyard. But about three months ago, because there were too many things in the house and there were not enough people, I could only scatter the people I had recruited in various parts of the house, and I don't know if there was a mistake here. ”
Su Xinyan said: "Is there any information about those people?" ”
The butler said, "Yes, the slave will bring it to you." ”
Su Xinyan raised his hand to interrupt him: "Don't worry, do you think about it again, has anyone ever inquired about Miss's residence, or is it Miss's news?" ”
The butler thought about it, but still shook his head, "It's really not." ”
"Then you go and get the information of those people first." Su Xinyan rubbed his eyebrows with a little headache, feeling that things were like a mess.
It seems that she can only go to see the second lady of the Lu family first.
The second lady of the Lu family is famous and is indeed a rare beauty. When Su Xinyan entered her boudoir, what she saw was a scene of a sick beauty. Although the other party is haggard, it is difficult to hide the bewildering appearance.
Su Xinyan found a place by the window and sat down, looking at each other with his arms crossed.
Yan Ran smiled bitterly, and said with some sadness in his voice: "Father-in-law Su can ask whatever he wants, anyway, the matter has come to this, and I have nothing to say." ”
Su Xinyan nodded clearly, although she didn't want to reveal her scars, she still stubbornly said, "Who was the man in gray you saw in the back garden before?" ”
After listening to her question, Yanran's face instantly turned pale, she clenched her hands a little nervously, her eyes flashed twice before she said hesitantly: "I don't know how Gonggong Su knew about him, but this matter has nothing to do with him at all." He's just a victim of it, and I hope he doesn't get involved in it anymore. ”
Su Xinyan shook his head after hearing this: "Miss's words are not right, whether he is innocent or not needs me to judge for myself, you just need to answer the previous question." ”
The other party shook his head, lowered his head and bit his lower lip, looking determined not to speak.
Su Xinyan frowned, "If you don't cooperate like this, how can I find out about this matter, return Feng Zheng's innocence, and give you justice?" ”
"Feng Zheng!" Yan Ran clenched his fists, and his eyes revealed boundless hatred, "It's not wrong, it must be him!" I personally ripped that jade pendant off his waist, how could I admit my mistake? ”
"You can't logically hold up like this," Su Xinyan spread his hands and said helplessly, "Even if the thing is his, the person is not necessarily him." ”
Yan Ran closed her mouth, tilted her head to the side, and then no matter what Su Xinyan said, she didn't speak again.
Su Xinyan was really a little surprised by this, although she was a little apprehensive about this question at first, but it was only because the other party would remember the sad things, and she didn't want the second young lady to be hurt again.
But she didn't expect that the other party would deliberately hide these things from her.
After all, according to common sense, the parties must want to catch the real murderer as soon as possible, but the attitude of this second lady doesn't seem to want them to catch the real murderer?
Or who is she shielding, but her reputation has been ruined, who else is worthy of her protection?
Su Xinyan was both soft and hard, coercion and temptation did not let the other party say anything about the man in gray, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Just then, the door opened, and a man dressed in white walked in from outside.
"Feng Zheng!" Seeing the visitor get up from his seat in a hurry, his eyes were red with anger, as if he was restraining something.
Su Xinyan hurriedly stood in front of the two of them, and looked at Feng Zheng in surprise, "Who are you?" ”
Feng Zheng glanced at the person behind Su Xinyan expressionlessly, closed the door, sat down on the seat, and said unhurriedly: "This young lady doesn't have to show such malice to me, I haven't seen you before, and I don't have much grudge against you." If you insist that I am the one who ruined your reputation before, I have nothing else to say, but now that I am here, it is better to confront you on the spot, what happened on the night you said? ”
Feeling the somewhat tense atmosphere in the room, Su Xinyan rubbed his chin twice with some irritability.
How did the development of this matter in the heart be like a wild horse that has escaped from the reins, galloping in the worst direction.
But fortunately, the two parties are people with status and status, and they can still talk calmly, and they didn't fight as soon as they met.
Otherwise, she may not be able to control this kind of scene.
