Chapter 103: The Falcon's Suspicion
Ouyang Qi was burying his head in dealing with things, and when he saw that the person who came in was Ouyang Jing, he raised his eyes and smiled: "Jing'er is here." Didn't you come to check if my brother had taken his medicine on time? ”
In the morning, the falcon came back and confessed his mistake vigorously, he felt strange, and after asking a few more words, he knew what was going on, but this girl was happy, and he didn't expose her.
"Of course not. I'm here to find something to eat here. ”
"Oh?" Ouyang Qi stopped the pen in his hand and said with a smile: "How do I remember that the best food in the entire Ouyang Mansion is in your Yijing Garden now, brother, is there anything you can see here?" ”
"Hehe~" Ouyang Jing walked up to him with a smile, pulled his arm and said coquettishly: "I'm not looking for an excuse to come to see my brother." ”
"You're poor."
"Miss, young master, you talk first, and then I'll go prepare some pastries." Ningxia always remembered that Ouyang Jing didn't eat much.
Ouyang Jing nodded, very satisfied with Ningxia's intimacy. When only the two of them were left in the house, she asked, "Brother, I heard that you haven't seen your father yet?" What the hell is going on? ”
"I think it's weird too." Ouyang Qi's face was much more serious, "The falcon kept watch all night last night, even if Daddy really fell asleep, there is no reason why he didn't notify me to see him this morning." ”
"Maybe it's really delayed." Ouyang Jing could only guess like this, and when he saw that Ouyang Qi's face was not very good, he said, "Wait a minute, I'll take a look, and ask my father by the way." Anyway, I used to be known for being rude and willful, and if he didn't see him, I'd just break in. ”
"Thank you Jing'er." Although this girl is sometimes naughty, she is really caring. Ouyang Qi smiled with satisfaction, and then reminded with some unease: "Don't be too impulsive." I always feel a little weird when Daddy comes back this time, so you have to be careful. ”
"I see." It's his own father, Ouyang Jing doesn't think anything will happen.
"By the way, what about the falcon? I have something to ask him. ”
"Outside the door." Ouyang Qi called the falcon in.
Under the inquiring gazes of the two, Ouyang Jing repeated what happened in the morning.
"When I think about it, I'm sure that the poison must have been done through a falcon. I was guarded by secret guards, and it was basically impossible for strangers to get close to me, and the only thing that had ever come close to me in the morning was a falcon. ”
"Young Master--"
"I know it's not you." Ouyang Qi interrupted him coldly. Falcon has been with him for many years, and the most basic trust is certainly there. "Jing'er, what do you want to ask?"
"I would like to ask where the Falcon has been and who he has seen since last night before meeting me this morning. This shouldn't be a secret, right? ”
At least in her opinion, there is no need to keep it secret.
"Of course." Falcon replied truthfully: "After serving the young master to bed last night, I went to the door of the master's room to guard and stood there all night.
In the morning, the housekeeper said that the master had something to get back in a hurry, and asked me to help, so I went out. The place to pick up the goods is a pharmacy of the Ouyang family in Shuicheng, if the princess wants to check it, I can take you there later.
When I came back, I handed over the things to the housekeeper, and went to get medicine for the young master, which was when I met the princess. ”
"Then apart from the people you have come into contact with outside the mansion, the only person you have come into contact with in the mansion is the housekeeper?" Sitting down on the chair next to him, Ouyang Jing said lazily.
Falcon thought for a moment, nodded and replied, "Yes." ”
Ouyang Jing lowered his eyes in contemplation.
There is a high probability of coming into contact with anyone outside the house, and there is also the most chance of being targeted. But she decided to go to the kitchen because she had a sudden idea in the morning, and even if the people outside the house had the intention to poison, it was impossible for them to know the news so quickly, and find the falcon in time to put the poison on him.
Therefore, the person who poisoned must be in the house. The most capable is ......
She glanced at Ouyang Qi, and saw the same answer in his eyes: this housekeeper had a problem.
"How long has this butler been in the house?"
"He's new here." Ouyang Qi replied: "The previous housekeeper watched you grow up, and he couldn't stand you getting married, so he went home to care for the elderly." ”
Forehead...... What a faithful steward, but unfortunately I didn't get a chance to meet him.
"Then has this housekeeper brother been in contact with it now?"
"Nope." Ouyang Qi lowered his eyes, "When you got married, my brother was still fighting outside. ”
By the time he returned home, Ouyang Zhen had already taken the housekeeper out to inspect the store, so he had never seen this housekeeper, let alone made contact.
"Then let me try it, it's a mule or a horse, and I'll give him the original shape right away."
Dare to fool around in her house, she can still do it if she doesn't exert her power.
"Be careful."
"I know, brother, don't worry, there are secret guards, I'm afraid that whoever can move me won't be able to. Moreover, don't you still say that I am rude, I still have this trick as a last resort. Hey~"
Ouyang Jing really thinks that this brutal willfulness is really very easy to use, you can do whatever you want, no one doubts it, hahaha.
Ouyang Qi felt that this method was worth trying, and before his body recovered, he asked the falcon to send Ouyang Jing out.
Walking outside the courtyard, Ouyang Jing raised his head and thought...... Pondering...... Suddenly, he looked at the falcon and asked, "You said that you stood all night last night, are you sure that the butler went in to report?" ”
Falcon was stunned for a moment, recalled for a moment, and replied with a little uncertainty: "There should be." ”
"What do you mean?" Ouyang Jing was dissatisfied.
"I saw him approach the house a few times, and then came out again after a while, probably to make sure that the old man had woken up." Falcon explained.
"Is there a light in the house?"
"Not really."
"You're stupid!" Ouyang Jing really wanted to take a sip of salt soda and spray him to death, "How can I confirm that people are awake or asleep without lighting the lights." I heard that you are very good at fighting, why are you so stupid at this time? ”
"Yes." Falcon's face turned red, "Subordinates pay more attention in the future, they must be smarter." ”
"Ouch!" Ouyang Jing held his forehead.
I can't talk, I can't continue to talk, I'm too obedient and tired.
"You go back, I'll go over by myself, and wait for Ningxia by the way."
Afraid that Ningxia wouldn't find her, she didn't go far, just wandered on the side of the path, by the way, she lowered her head to think about things, smelled the fragrance of food, and then raised her head, and quickly grabbed one and put it in her mouth.
"Ningxia, have you had any contact with the new housekeeper? Have you ever heard anything from the maid in the house? ”
Nine and a half of the ten women gossip, inquire about the news, and sometimes it is very useful to find Ningxia.
"I haven't touched it." She's basically staying in the Quiet Garden. "However, I heard the maid in the house say that this housekeeper is cold, doesn't like to talk, and doesn't match the master at all."
"Ahem!" Ouyang Jing's forehead slid down three black lines, "We are the housekeeper and not the mistress of Ouyang Mansion, why do you want to match with your father!" ”
