The Queen's Engineering Army

Chapter 106 The real murderer behind the scenes
After a night of torment, the sky showed a white belly, and the roosters in the streets and alleys in the distance began to crow.

"Squeak."

Dai Li pushed the door out with a tired face, and wiped his hands with a cloth towel as he walked. The blood on his hands had been washed off, but there was still blood on his sleeves.

It can be seen that the work of dealing with the wound yesterday was not light.

"How's it going?"

Li Jinlong leaned against the pillar and closed his eyes to rest his mind. When he heard the sound, he opened his eyes and stepped forward to ask.

Su Lin had already gone back to his room to sleep, and he had been ordered to report immediately when there was news, so Li Jinlong had been waiting outside the door.

When you are tired, you can rest on the pillars.

"The bad leg has been sawed off and the wound has been wrapped. Whether he can survive depends on his luck." Dai Li sighed and said.

At the same time, he glanced at Li Jinlong again, leaned forward and asked, "Head Li, who is this person? How could he be injured so badly?"

After working all night, I still don't know who the person I saved was.

"I didn't know him either. I met him on the roadside and carried him back." Li Jinlong shrugged.

"Hey, I don't know who I offended, and I have suffered such a cruel hand."

Dai Li regretted that even if he survived, he would not be able to take care of himself for the rest of his life, so it would be better to die.

Li Jinlong did not speak, but stared at Dai Li, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, showing a smile that was not a smile.

Dai Li was terrified, not knowing what Li Jinlong was going to do.

"You have performed well. My lord appreciates you very much. The next step is to be promoted." Li Jinlong patted him on the shoulder.

"Really?" Dai Li was pleasantly surprised.

Dahan Village is a small society, as long as there are people, there will be classes and managers. Who doesn't want to work hard to climb up?

And the people in the village are also divided into several factions.

For example, the militia faction headed by Li Jinlong.

There are also the Shangyu faction headed by Wei Qi, the Orion faction headed by Chen Fu, and the villagers faction headed by Ma Yun.

Although they seem to coexist harmoniously, they all have their own small groups, and some small frictions are inevitable when they meet every day.

So they are all secretly competing, and some factions still have differences.

If Dai Li can be promoted to a good position, it will be good news for Li Jinlong.

"Can I still lie to you?" Li Jinlong scolded with a smile.

"Thank you for the promotion, Brother Long." Dai Li thanked him with hands in his hands.

On the scene, he was called Captain Li, but in private, he was called Brother Long, which seemed closer.

"You can help me when you come up, that guy Wei Qi is climbing too fast, we have to suppress his arrogance."

Li Jinlong killed Wei Qi's brother and made Liang Zi, everyone in Dahan Village knew this.

People from the two factions often had frictions, but because Su Lin was there, the frictions did not expand further.

But they secretly accumulate strength and seize the opportunity to step on each other.

So we can't just watch Wei Qi climb up to the top. If Wei Qi, a villain like Wei Qi, really gains power, maybe how to deal with him.

"Only the sycophant?"

Dai Li was very contemptuous, at least the people from Li Jinlong's faction were capable.

"Don't underestimate him, he will be our confidant's serious trouble in the future, especially his newly married wife is not a cheap lamp." Li Jinlong frowned.

"I don't know what kind of taste he is. I heard that his wife has been ruined by others, so it's like something precious."

Dai Li is Li Jinlong's right-hand man. Since he follows his eldest brother, he will stand in Li Jinlong's position and hate Wei Qi.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, let's go to rest after a busy night. After a while, the lord wakes up, and I will give you credit. If there is a vacancy for the battalion commander, it will probably be your turn." Li Jinlong waved his hand and smiled.

The regiment commander and battalion commander are appointed by Su Lin himself.

And the grassroots officers below, they have the right to propose outstanding talents.

Su Lin also had to delegate some of his powers. If he did everything by himself, he would be exhausted sooner or later.

It was also bright, and Su Lin came out after washing.

In the morning, I use a toothbrush produced in Dahan Village to wash up. I use a small piece of wood with pig hair inlaid on it. Although it is not very easy to use, it is better than using tree branches before.

When the guard with the broken leg treated his wound yesterday, in order to reduce his pain, he drank a lot of alcohol.

I haven't woken up yet.

In the morning, I made an appointment with Mi Yuan to visit Zheng Xiu in Zheng's mansion.

Who broke the guard's legs? I'll ask when I get back.

He never thought about Zheng Xiu. In Su Lin's heart, although he had some misunderstandings with Zheng Xiu, he always thought that Zheng Xiu was still that innocent and kind girl.

As long as the misunderstanding is cleared, everything will be as before,

But this is not the case.

Now Zheng Xiu has been reduced to a cruel demon, jealousy and viciousness are deeply rooted in her heart.

The inner demons are hard to dispel.

Yindu, Zhengfu.

With a painful face, Zheng Long limped back to his room.

On the road, a dog's leg stepped forward to support him, and asked with concern: "Chief Manager, what's wrong with you? Why did you suffer such a serious injury?"

Zheng Long's whole body was covered with welts, and there was hardly a piece of intact skin. It seemed that he had too much fun last night.

From excitement to pain to numbness.

Zheng Long was physically and mentally exhausted, waved his hands and said: "It's okay, go find someone to apply medicine to me."

Although he didn't say anything, the news of last night spread, and the dog leg wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

Just as he was about to get the medicine, Zheng Long stopped him again: "Also, Miss wants to invite Mr. Mi Huai to your house as a guest. I can't go. You can go when you finish your work."

"Here."

The dog leg nodded in response.He helped Zheng Long into the room, and then went to get the medicine.

His room is in the backyard of the Zheng Mansion, the location is not bad, and the interior is quite luxuriously decorated.

There has been a lot of corruption in Zheng's mansion these years. As a servant, as long as he is not disloyal to his master, even if he embezzles two small coins, it is no big deal.

Slowly walked to the bed, because the braid was kneeling, the welts were all on the back, but there were not many welts on the abdomen, so I could only lie on the bed and rest.

It's not easy to not rest for ten days and a half months for this injury.

Tired all night, just lying on the bed, fell asleep with heavy eyelids.

in sleep.

The surroundings were pitch black, with only a little light, and suddenly a white figure flew over in the distance.

Zheng Qian looked at Zheng Long with a gloomy face, his eyes were bleeding, his face was pale, and his body was like a ghost, slowly floating over.

"I died so badly."

"Why are you killing me?"

Zheng Gan chattered and sneered, staring at Zheng Long with great resentment.

"No, no, don't come looking for me, I was careless." Zheng Long hid in the corner, shaking his head constantly, scared the shit out of him.

"I want revenge!"

Zheng Qian suddenly opened his arms, his face became distorted, and his mouth turned into a bloody mouth, like a wild beast, he was about to pounce and bite Zheng Long.

"No!"

Zheng Long shouted for help, and his bloody mouth covered the entire scene, turning it dark.

"Ah, no."

Zheng Long suddenly opened his eyes, he was still in his room, it was just a dream.

His forehead was covered with sweat, and the shock just now made him ignore the pain on his body.

That's right.

He is the murderer who killed Zheng Gan.

That night, he was quietly outside Zheng Qian's room, and heard the conversation between Zheng Qian and the housekeeper.

Zheng Gan already knew everything, so he asked the housekeeper to call Zheng Xiu over.

So when the housekeeper went to call the lady, he slipped in and covered Zheng Gan with a wet cloth.

At the same time, the false impression that Zheng Qian died of illness was made.

If Zheng Qian does not die, Zheng Xiu will definitely be punished and even deprived of his right to inherit property. He, a lowly domestic slave, will have no good luck and will definitely be executed.

It's better not to do it, and to be Zheng Qian.

In the future, I will enjoy the glory and wealth with the young lady.

This matter, no one knows, and it is impossible for others to know.

The biggest beneficiary of Zheng Gan's death is Zheng Xiu, but if Zheng Xiu knows that he is the murderer, Zheng Xiu will execute Zheng Long mercilessly.

Although Zheng Xiu is vicious, she still has feelings for her father with sincerity.

Looking around for no one, Zheng Long breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hopefully no one ever finds out about this."

It can only be buried in my heart forever.
