Then Li Da squeezed out a stiff smile at the big butler, and said tremblingly:

"Failed, 5 of the 6 people in the ambush died, Zhao Xiong retreated to the Zhao Mansion with his whole body, I went up and squatted until the third watch, he never came out, I rushed back to report the news!"

The chief butler Gao Qiqian said: "Alas, this Lehi has scared the snake, it seems that it is impossible to kill Zhao Xiongba by his hand, and let them live a few more days!" ”

Li Da is very afraid of the big housekeeper from the Wenxiang Sect.

He said cautiously: "I asked Li Er to kill the escaped king rat wolf, the big housekeeper, did my brother come back to report?" ”

The chief housekeeper snorted and said: "Your brother Li Er is also a waste, he came back from injury and reported that he stabbed the king rat wolf in the stomach, and the king rat wolf jumped into the Grand Canal and sank."

In such a cold weather, your brother kept watch for half an hour, and the king rat wolf did not show his head, so he saw that he had no way to live.

I see that your brother is not lightly wounded, so I told him to rest! ”

Li Dawen finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seemed that his younger brother had killed the king rat wolf.

The great butler, who was hiding in the dark, continued to preach:

"It seems that Li Hai has made a big deal out of this matter, the Zhao clan is still very strong in Yi County, and he will definitely find out.

After all, Li Hai is an outsider, and he can't make any big waves against the Zhao family. ”

The chief butler sighed and said: "The money raised in the past few years has been enough, and if it goes on like this, sooner or later there will be flaws, if someone comes to investigate, you find someone to confess Li Hai!"

If no one comes to check, before the Grand Canal is closed, you notify the second owner of Baishui Village, and you should set fire to the Li Mansion with one fire! ”

At this time, Li Da, who was kneeling on the ground, heard that he was going to burn the Li Mansion, he felt the tendons in his head jump a few times, forced to calm down, thought about it for a while, and replied euphemistically:

"Baishuizhai is now led by the three masters, Tian Sanniang, but in the past three years, Baishuizhai's strength has been seriously damaged, and they can't even deal with Heishuizhai.

This time in Baishui Village, two more masters died in the assassination of Zhao Xiong, and his strength was even weaker.

Xie Liang, the big boss of Heishui Village, found me yesterday and wanted to take refuge in our Smelling Fragrance Sect, this is their roster of Heishui Village! ”

After speaking, he took out a fold from his arms, raised his hands respectfully above his head, and found that his hand was light, and the roster flew into the hands of the chief butler.

The miraculous technique frightened Li Da so much that he didn't dare to make a sound, and the time passed minute by minute, and it was freezing outside, and suddenly he felt that it was very hot inside the house.

Raising his head and secretly looking at the desk, there was a large copper brazier full of silver charcoal burning in the middle of the desk.

Only an eleven or twelve-year-old maid knelt on the edge of the desk, holding her breath and pinching his feet.

Then the charcoal fire was stirred, and the fire burned brightly.

The brazier and the butler were close by, and he sat behind his desk like no one else, and he didn't think it was too hot.

The darkness and the arm-thick candles in the room shone up and down, warm red.

Gao Qiqian was silent after reading the roster, and after a while, he picked up the roster and looked at it, and put his right hand on the table.

The fingers are constantly tapping "tick-tock", as if thinking about something.

After a moment of silence, the chief butler raised his voice and said:

"Very good, wait a minute, you go with me to see Li Hai, he will definitely ask you about the specific situation, you said that Zhao Xiong was injured last night, but he has returned to Zhao Mansion and has not come out!"

"Ah, Zhao Xiongba is not injured!" Li Da raised his head and looked at the big butler in surprise.

"You just said that she was injured in the arm, and I have my own plans when the time comes, do you understand?"

"Listen,...... Got it! ”

Li Da stammered in reply.

The chief butler was very dissatisfied, and Li Da replied, but after all, he was teaching people to lie and do things, so he slowed down his tone and said: "You two brothers and I are both members of the church, of course, your mother's sick helper will pray for her!" ”

Li Da was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Gang Leader Hongfu Qitian, I will swear to join the church for Li Er and our two brothers!" ”

Gao Qiqian was very satisfied with his attitude and continued: "Remember, someone must be watching at the gate of the Zhao Mansion in the past two days, if something urgent happens, you know what to do!"

Alright, you step aside! ”

Li Da agreed, got up and walked backwards out of the study, his body was wet with sweat, and the cold wind blew, shivering.

He took out a snow-white silk handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the fine sweat from the corners of his forehead, and cautiously walked to the door before taking a breath.

I smelled the silk handkerchief again, and the fragrance was fragrant, which was a token of love given to him by Wanhualou Qing'er.

Thinking of Qing'er, Li Da was intoxicated again, but it cost a few taels of silver to go to Wanhualou.

Since the assassination failed, and the hundred taels of silver that Li Hai gave to the king rat wolf were still on the king rat wolf's body, I don't know if Li Er snatched it back, he still has to ask Li Er.

So he walked to the front yard, to the housekeeper's room.

At this time, the chief butler leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and pondered, he had been lurking in Li Hai's house for three years on the orders of the master of the Muxiang Hall.

Taking advantage of Lehi's convenience in managing the locks of the canal, he made a business for the sect, so as to provide funds for the rebellion launched by the Smelling Fragrance Sect in the future.

But the chief butler Gao Qiqian had other ideas, he and Lehi's wife had a personal relationship three years ago, and after becoming a housekeeper, he secretly wanted to seek all of Lehi's net worth.

Now Li Hai has three sons, the eldest son was born to Li Hai's personal maid, he has no status in the mansion, he can't inherit it, and now he has returned to his hometown in Shanxi.

The second son, Li Chao, is the proper son-in-law born to the deceased original wife, and together with Zhao Xiong, he is known as the two tyrants on the canal.

The third son-in-law is now more than three years old when he is born to this lady, and he can be regarded as a son-in-law, but the father of this son-in-law is not Lehi, but him.

With the failure of this assassination attempt, Lehi must have died down.

He wanted to encourage Li Hai's second son, Li Chao, to go to Zhao's mansion to prepare for trouble, and if the second son killed Zhao Xiong, then he would get revenge.

If the second son can't kill Zhao Xiong, and Zhao Xiong is killed by the second son, then it will be a good show, as long as he silently adds fuel to the fire on the side.

Then the Zhao Mansion and the Li Mansion are incompatible, and in the end, Li Hai will be finished.

Then my son will be able to inherit the family business of the Li Mansion.

Thinking of this big butler, he sneered like a night owl.

As soon as the tall butler's pale face thought of this, he was immediately excited, but when he looked down at himself, he immediately shuddered.

remembered how Zhao Xiongba abolished himself in the past, so now he has become a eunuch, which is hateful.

In the end, under the coercion of Lao Zhao Tong, his wife was scattered on the streets, and he had to ask someone to castrate and enter the palace as a eunuch.

The thought of that thing not being able to hold its head up made me frustrated.
