"How long did it take from the time you heard the screams and ran into the West Wing to find out that the young master was missing?"

"Time is very short, that is, the time of a pillar of incense," Du Linquan said after thinking about it.

"When you were taking care of the little master, did you see someone passing by?"

"Yes, it's Miss Du, she walked through the courtyard and entered the West Wing, thinking she was going to pick up something, right?"

"Do you have any enemies?"

"Enemies? That's too much to count! Du Linquan shook his head, "Maybe it was the enemy who kidnapped the little young master!" ”

"Oh?" , Nie Xiaohu suddenly became interested, "How do you say this?" ”

"As a subordinate, you shouldn't be talking about the rights and wrongs of your master, you know. But the young master disappeared under my care, and I have an unshirkable responsibility. ”

Du Linquan seemed to be very remorseful, and bit his lower lip tightly and said: "My master is a miser, he is very mean, and there are more people who have suffered his losses in business, and he treats our subordinates the same.

He recorded every expense of the family in his account, and without his approval, no one would want to withdraw a penny from the account, not even the money used by his wife. If our subordinates do something wrong, or accidentally damage something, he wants us to compensate according to the price, and deduct our monthly money at every turn, and the lotus is forced to death by him! ”

Du Linquan shook his head, sighed lightly, and then said: "I think it's reasonable for this kind of thing to happen now, who knows which god kidnapped the little master, now I will inevitably be unlucky, but now the master can't spare time!" ”

Nie Xiaohu nodded, "I'll tell Master Du, it's not your fault." ”

"Then I'll thank you first!" , Du Linquan hurriedly bowed and bowed.

"You go out first, and call Miss Du Liqin Du in."

The woman in front of Nie Xiaohu is very beautiful, with a lock of wavy hair hanging down her back, beautiful willow eyebrows like a crescent moon, a pair of beautiful eyes that are intimidating, a warped Yao nose, peach cheeks with anger, dotted cherry lips, goose eggs and delicate faces, quiet and natural like orchids, smooth skin and tender honey, and a graceful and slim body. But he looked very arrogant, his jaw was raised high, and there was a sense of arrogance in his eyebrows.

"Your name is Du Liqin?"

"Yes."

"What is your relationship with Du Hongxuan?"

"I am his relative, and my father is the eldest cousin of his second uncle's third aunt!"

"What the hell is this mess? This really corresponds to the old saying, called 'the poor in the downtown no one asks, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains'! Nie Xiaohu pursed his lips, and there was a burst of amusement in his heart.

"Tell me about it!"

"This morning I went to the living room for breakfast, as soon as I sat down, I found that my jade bracelet was not on my hand, I thought it was forgotten on the dresser, so I went back to the room to get it, just when I returned to the room on the second floor, just put the bracelet on, I heard the scream of Binglan outside, I was startled, quickly out of the door, in the corridor I looked down, saw Binglan was standing at the corner of the stairs, as if frightened, the housekeeper Du Linquan was standing at the mouth of the stairs, and after a while, Master Du also ran in."

"What is the matter with you coming to the Du family?"

"This?" , Du Liqin frowned slightly, "Does this have anything to do with the kidnapping of the young master of the Du family?" ”

"Absolutely!" , Nie Xiaohu's face was straight, and he said seriously, "I don't know the origin of each of you, what intentions you have, how can I exclude you from the object of suspicion?" I can only start investigating whether it is possible for outsiders to commit the crime until I have cleared all the suspicions here, do you understand? ”

"That's... Alright then", Du Liqin finally lowered her haughty head and whispered, "That... My lord, can you keep it a secret for me? ”

"Hmm", Nie Xiaohu nodded.

"My husband is working in the yamen, is a bookkeeper, not long ago a steward in the yamen committed a crime, stained the silver in the yamen, my husband because he is an account, was also arrested with him, I asked people everywhere to intercede, almost spent the family's savings, it was easy to get through the joint, and now I still need a sum of money, my husband can release it, but where do I go to find silver, relatives and friends around me, I can borrow everything."

As she spoke, Du Liqin nodded on her nose with a handkerchief, and said with a little choked up: "Thinking about it, in order for my husband to come out early, I had to come here with a cheeky face. ”

"I know, you go out, go and call that servant from Binglan and Feng Junzhe in."

"I've seen adults, I've seen two officials", after the maid Binglan and a teenager came in, the two hurriedly bowed to Nie Xiaohu and the three of them.

"Your name is Binglan, right?" , Nie Xiaohu looked at the pretty little girl in front of him and asked with a smile.

"Yes," Binglan said timidly.

"What's your name?" , Nie Xiaohu turned to look at the young man.

"My name is Mingqi."

"Hmm", Nie Xiaohu nodded.

"Mingqi, let me ask you, where were you this morning?"

"My lord, I was in the east wing this morning until I heard someone making noise outside."

Nie Xiaohu ignored Mingqi and turned to look at Binglan.

"Binglan, why did you scream this morning?"

"Lord Hui, I was about to go downstairs this morning, and I just walked to the corner of the stairs when I suddenly saw a white ...... in the air."

"Smack!" With a bang, Nie Xiaohu slapped the table hard, making the two of them tremble.

"Tell the truth!"

"My lord, everything I said is the truth!" Binglan lowered her head and muttered quietly.

"I still want to lie!"

Nie Xiaohu glared, "Believe it or not, I'll arrest both of you as accomplices to the kidnappers!" ”

"Your Excellency, be gracious!"

Binglan and Mingqi knelt down almost at the same time.

Nie Xiaohu smiled, "Mingqi, did you hide in the dark and try to scare Binglan, and kissed her?" ”
