Chapter 338
In front of Zhu Di, Dao Yan once described Xu Ruyi's behavior as an old turtle. It did not contain any derogatory meaning, it was just an objective fact.

Stable and win, step by step.

But there is no such thing as a sure thing in the world. The correct decision is only a relatively safe judgment based on the careful analysis of the existing information.

Li Fei died.

The moment Xu Ruyi entered the gate of Dongchang, Ye Yuze told all the known information and gave a vague judgment-the murderer came from Peiping.

Based on his understanding of Dao Yan, Xu Ruyi felt that this was very likely, but he didn't care.In the final analysis, death is like a lamp being extinguished, and the important thing is the impact on the living.

Li Fei is dead, who will reap the benefits?
Xu Ruyi couldn't think of an accurate answer for a while, but with a flash of inspiration, he came to the Changxing Marquis Mansion and decided to meet Geng Bingwen.

In front of the Hou Mansion, Guo Ying and Xu Ruyi met each other, and then passed each other.

In response to Guo Ying's angry glare, Xu Ruyi just smiled modestly.

Geng Xuan was led into Geng Bingwen's bedroom all the way. On the hospital bed, Geng Bingwen, who looked haggard, had fallen into a deep sleep. Xu Ruyi frowned and looked at Geng Xuan aside: "Is the illness so serious? Don't you mean you feel cold occasionally?"

"Return to the father-in-law." Geng Xuan lowered his head, his eyes wandering: "The imperial doctor said that it will be better after a few days. It's just that my father has lost his appetite and spirit recently. For some reason, his condition has become more and more serious."

Xu Ruyi nodded, her eyes swept across the room, and finally fixed on the round table in the middle, where there seemed to be a trace of blood.

Because of this trace of blood, he also began to notice the faint smell of blood in the room that had not dissipated.

"Young Lord." Xu Ruyi smiled and cupped his hands slightly: "The first emperor set up Dongchang, and ordered our family to supervise the secret spies in the world to detect hundreds of officials. There are some children arranged in the house. But there is no intention to offend, I believe the young master understands. If this makes the young master feel unhappy, our family hereby apologizes to the prince, and I hope that Haihan will accept it."

Geng Xuan cupped her fists and clasped her hands: "My father-in-law's duty is to be loyal to the emperor, my father and my subordinates have nothing to say."

"Some things are done in the dark, but some things should be said in the open, so as not to cause misunderstandings." Xu Ruyi nodded, and then said loudly to the outside: "Come in, our family has something to ask you!"

Outside the door, an old housekeeper in a blue cloth robe came in lightly, knelt down in front of Xu Ruyi, and called him the governor.

Xu Ruyi glanced at Geng Xuan without any trace, and saw the right amount of surprise on his face. She smiled slightly and asked the old man on the ground, "Who has come to visit Mr. Hou today?"

"Returning to the governor, apart from Zuo Ruijin, the former governor's counselor of the military governor's mansion, only Old Hou Guo has been here today."

"What did the two Marquis say?"

"It's just chatting." The old housekeeper's voice was calm, as if that was the truth.

"Oh." Xu Ruyi nodded, her voice playful: "Master Guo came empty-handed?"

"No." The old housekeeper replied, "I have an old ginseng, two high-quality ganoderma, and some nourishing medicines."

"Gone?"

"Others, the subordinates did not see."

did not see?This answer is somewhat interesting.

"Okay, you can go down." Xu Ruyi waved his hand: "You did a good job. You will come back to Dongchang with our family later, and we will give you some rewards."

"Thank you, Lord Governor, I will take my leave."

The old housekeeper got up and retreated, and closed the door again, Xu Ruyi laughed loudly: "Old Hou is so clever, he actually bought all the spies from our East Factory, admire, admire."

Geng Xuan looked horrified and asked: "My father-in-law, why did my father-in-law say this?"

Xu Ruyi didn't answer, but looked at Geng Bingwen on the bed: "The trick has leaked, do you still have to pretend to be sick?"

After a while, Geng Bingwen opened his eyes, sat up slowly with the support of his son, and looked up at Xu Ruyi: "Grandpa Xu, what do you mean by this? I don't quite understand, so please speak up."

Xu Ruyi shook her head, and went directly to the round stool beside the table to sit down: "Old Lord, our family is an eunuch who serves the emperor. You are the general who followed the late emperor all the way to kill the dead. Our family knows You look down on our family in your heart, and our family can understand.

It's just that there are some things that can't be vague at all, and it's better to make it clear.

The enemy of the imperial court is not in the imperial court, but in the north, I believe the old Hou Ye also understands.The first emperor had great talent, but some things were overdone.As our family, it is not easy to comment, but I believe that the old Hou Ye knows it well.

The King of Yan has always had objections, and there will be a battle between the imperial court and Peiping, maybe this year, or next year at the latest.There are no generals in the court, and when that day comes, thousands of troops are easy to get, but the job of leading the army must fall on the shoulders of the old marquis. "

Geng Bingwen coughed weakly twice, shook his head and said: "The old man is old and frail, he can't ride a horse, he can't hold a knife, I'm afraid he won't be able to take on a big job..."

"The old Marquis deserves it, and he must deserve it." Xu Ruyi looked at Geng Bingwen firmly, and said in a deep voice, "Marquis Wu Ding can be outstanding, but the emperor doesn't trust him even if the Ming people don't speak secretly."

"The emperor can trust the old man?"

"Our family trusts the old Marquis, so the emperor must also trust the old Marquis." Xu Ruyi paused, and then said: "So Li Fei, the son of Duke Han, is dead. Does the old Marquis know?"

"I don't know." Geng Bingwen shook his head naturally.

"Then I don't know the old Hou Ye." Xu Ruyi didn't delve into it, and said: "Our family just wants to tell the old Hou Ye that when Han Hangong died, Li Fei was able to live because our family and the emperor tried their best to protect him in front of the late emperor. The result. For so many years, although Li Fei has been imprisoned in the Jinyiwei Prison, our family has always provided fine clothes and food, and never treated him badly.

A lunatic, our family can afford to raise him. Killing him will not do our family any good. On the contrary, it will annoy Lord Wuding and anger all the nobles.Although our family is arrogant, we are not people who are overwhelmed. Please also ask the old Hou Ye to learn from us. "

"A wise man will make mistakes after thinking a lot, and a smart man may not make mistakes." Geng Bingwen said without comment: "If Li Fei's death was not caused by Dongchang, then who does your father-in-law think is the murderer?"

"Peking."

"evidence?"

"It's just a guess." Xu Ruyi stood up and lightly brushed her sleeves: "Today's evening, our family took the liberty to come here just to clarify this unnecessary misunderstanding. Maybe someone said something to Master Hou these days, maybe not. Our family just hopes that Mr. Hou can think twice before taking action.

Li Fei's death, our family will definitely give Hou Ye an explanation.No matter what, if such evil things happen in Beijing, our family and Dongchang will also lose face, and the emperor will not look good. "

"Then there will be Mr. Lao."
