Girls love to joke [Zhan Zhao colleagues]

Su Lin didn't care about losing the business of the Li Mansion, even if Zhan Zhao didn't say anything, she knew the business was over.Fortunately, her little mantou already has some regular customers, and the loss of one of them will not have much impact.Today she is going to visit Zhuo Wudong, he promised compensation before, and he really gave him bird's nest and ginseng, but there is nothing else for now, she will come to collect the debt.

Zhuo Wudong is bold and will not take advantage of the girl's family, he promised Su Lin to order small steamed buns from her during the holidays.Su Lin was very satisfied with the result and felt that this friend was right.Zhuo Wudong was a busy person, she still remembered Zhan Zhao's advice, she didn't stop there, and she had to leave after finalizing the business matters.But by such a coincidence, Zhuo Wuxia rushed in angrily at this moment.

Zhuo Wuxia broke into the study room, swung the whip at Zhuo Wudong without saying a word; Zhuo Wudong dodged and dodged, but the table was a mess, leaving deep whip marks on the table. Su Lin was startled.Zhuo Wudong calmed down, he was obviously used to this situation.His eyes were cold, and there was a mocking sneer on the corner of his mouth: "Who made the young lady angry again?"

Compared with Zhuo Wudong's calmness, Zhuo Wuxia was almost furious. She pointed at Zhuo Wudong with a whip and said angrily: "I will not marry into the Wu family in Guangnan!" Zhuo Wudong rubbed his fingers on the desk. He said: "The third son of the Wu family is a handsome man with a handsome demeanor. You have seen him when you were young. He is impeccable in terms of character and family background. The fly in the ointment is that Guangnan is far away from Bianjing."

"Bah!" Zhuo Wuxia kicked the chair over, "I won't marry anyone! You don't want to marry me far away to take over my Zhuo family's property!" Zhuo Wudong laughed lowly as if hearing some joke Lai: "Since ancient times, marriages have been ordered by parents. The matchmaker's words, how can there be a reason for a girl to decide by herself? My father and mother died early, so my brother naturally has to worry about this for my sister. You can prepare for marriage with peace of mind. The Zhuo family property will naturally be inherited by the male Zhuo family, and will never fall into the hands of others."

"Zhuo Wudong, just wait for me! One day I will kill you and take back the property!" Zhuo Wuxia's knuckles turned white.

Zhuo Wudong took a sip of the teacup that survived the disaster, and said coldly: "I'll wait."

Su Lin stuck to the corner, complaining secretly in her heart, is this brother and sister falling in love and killing each other?With Zhuo Wuxia's fiery temper, the future of the third son of the Wu family is in jeopardy.Is Zhuo Wudong sending the girl to the frontier, or plotting against Third Young Master Wu?Ms. Zhuo probably won't be able to find a good husband's family in Bianjing, please come home with this giant Buddha, can't she live a life?

Zhuo Wuxia has never been pleased with Zhuo Wudong, and this time is no different.She was full of anger and had nowhere to vent her anger. When she turned around, she saw Su Lin who was trying to reduce her sense of presence. She smiled meaningfully at Su Lin: "Miss Su is here?" Su Lin was stunned by her cruel eyes. Feeling uncomfortable all over, he couldn't help but think of Zhan Zhao's exhortations, and he felt a little troubled in his heart, that what he said was actually true.Although she was still brooding over the incident of falling from a horse last time, she really had nothing to do with Zhuo Wuxia, so she could only suppress her anger in her heart.Therefore, she subconsciously avoided Zhuo Wuxia, so as not to bring up unpleasant memories.

Zhuo Wudong said indifferently: "Miss Su is here to discuss business." Hearing these words that seemed to be explained, the smile on Zhuo Wuxia's lips became even colder, no matter what Miss Su came to do, as long as she was special to Zhuo Wudong just fine!She can't do anything to him, so use someone he cares about to deal with him!

"It's rare to have a female visitor. I'll take the girl for a stroll around the garden." Zhuo Wuxia grabbed Su Lin's hand and pulled it out. Shout out.Seeing this, Zhuo Wuxia not only did not let go, but secretly increased her strength, forcefully scratching open the scabbed wound.Zhuo Wudong took two steps forward, clasped Zhuo Wuxia's shoulders violently, forcing her to let go in pain. "My guests don't need your greetings."

Zhuo Wuxia wasn't angry this time, on the contrary, he was somewhat happy, before leaving, he left a gloomy sentence: "Miss Su, I remember you."

As the truth of the murder case gradually surfaced, there were many rumors in the Li family.Zhan Zhao's visit to Li's mansion this time is different from previous investigations. He is dressed in a bright red official uniform, with a serious expression on his face, and the yamen servants behind him are also serious.A group of people went straight to Li Changyi's courtyard, Li Changyi was slightly stunned seeing the battle, and asked: "Master Zhan, today is... Could it be that the real culprit has been found?"

Zhan Zhao glanced at Li Changyi's gauze-wrapped hands, stretched out his hand above the charcoal basin to warm his hands, and asked, "Is the eldest son's chilblain still healed?" Li Changyi's smile froze when he heard this, and he reluctantly said a few words.Zhan Zhao didn't take it seriously, walked to the desk, picked up the ink stick that he saw that night, turned it over and over in his hand: "This ink stick..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Changyi rushed to say: "This ink stick is a gift from Yun Xuan, I'll keep it for thought." Zhan Zhao nodded, paced back and forth in the room, and suddenly changed the subject: "Young Master It's quiet here, although there are few servants, but each of them is dexterous. The young master is a kind-hearted person, and he sends the servants to rest early in the afternoon, and even more at night. It is a blessing for the servants to have a master like the young master." The conversation changed, "In this way, even if the young master goes out, no one will know about it."

Li Changyi changed his face: "Master Zhan, why did you say that? Mr. Li has been bedridden for many days, and the soup and medicine are constantly incessant, so how can he go out with his sick body?" Zhan Zhao ordered someone to fetch the torn long gown, long gown Shake it away, and the hole is impressive. "If the young master has never gone out, why is there this thing under the rockery next to the lotus pond?" He said, spread the long gown on the table, and placed the cloth pieces he picked up on the damaged part, just matching.

Li Changyi stared at the long gown on the table without moving for a long time, he was careless and didn't deal with the gown in time, not wanting Zhan Zhao to find the clue.However, what can a gown mean?So what if he went to the lotus pond?Zhan Zhao ordered someone to put away his clothes, and said again: "Get a basin of water to wash the eldest son." Li Changyi was puzzled, and hurriedly said: "Master Zhan, what are you doing?"

The corners of Zhan Zhao's lips twitched slightly: "Wash away the sickness, son, so that you can recover soon." Soon, the yamen servant brought water, but Li Changyi couldn't get rid of it, so he could only wash his face carefully; all the makeup on his face was naturally washed off , I saw that his face was rosy, and there was no trace of illness to be found.Only then did Li Changyi inform him of being poisoned, and confessed that he pretended to be sick entirely out of self-preservation.Zhan Zhao nodded in agreement: "The poisoner has sinister intentions, so you should protect yourself. I see that there are ledgers on the desk of your bed, and when you are convalescing, you often lean over the desk to manage the family business." After a short pause, he fell I drank some water and started to grind the ink. "Is the ink stick that Ms. Zhang gave you satisfactory? It smells like ink."

Li Changyi breathed a sigh of relief, forced a smile and said: "As the eldest son, he should start the family business. The things Yun Xuan sent are naturally excellent, and every time I study ink, I will see things and think about it, and my heart will be heartbroken..."

"My lord, do you know that the poison is put in the ink stick?" Zhan Zhao smiled at him, and Li Changyi realized that he had fallen into his trap, and secretly clenched his fists, being such a cunning Zhan Zhao, he lured him into the trap step by step!Shaking his head stiffly, his throat was astringent: "How is it possible? Yunxuan and I are childhood sweethearts, and we have a very close relationship. How could she poison me?"

"Miss Zhang also never expected that she would die at the hands of her fiancé." Zhan Zhao met Li Changyi's guilty eyes, and every word was heartbroken.No longer dealing with Li Changyi, Zhan Zhao slowly expressed his deduction. "The thing is not what Qiubi said when she woke up and found that Ms. Zhang was gone, but that Qiubi and Ms. Zhang avoided people and came to you. You must know why she came, but you still hold a glimmer of hope. , I hope she will not be cruel to kill you, but she has disappointed you. This forced you to kill her. Presumably you beat her first, then poured her the poison she prepared, and then abandoned the body Lotus Pond."

Li Changyi laughed after hearing this: "Master Zhan, how do I know that she will poison me? How can Qiu Bi allow me to kill her lady? Besides, Yun Xuan is holding the tassel on the jade pendant of her second brother. How could the murderer do it?" it's me?"

"What if you were already in collusion with Qiu Bi? Miss Zhang visited Li's mansion three months ago and was deprived of her innocence by the second son. Since then, the second son has used this to blackmail Miss Zhang to give you the poisonous ink stick. Others may I don't know, as a personal servant girl, Qiu Bi must have noticed the clues. She knows that Miss Zhang's actions will not end well, and for the sake of her own future, she has taken refuge in you, presumably you have given her the title of aunt." Zhan Zhaorao The charcoal basin walked around twice, and then said: "That day, when you were disappointed, you beat Miss Zhang. You didn't want her to have a miscarriage and stain the carpet; It is said that his condition worsened and he vomited blood."

"It's so vivid, Master Zhan has any evidence?" Li Changyi's face was sombre, but he was all right.

Zhan Zhao walked to the bed and looked down at his gauze-wrapped hands, "The carpet has long been destroyed by you, so I'm afraid it will be hard to get it back. However, after all these days, the chilblains on the young master's hands should have healed, right?" ? Why don't you take it apart and have a look?" Seeing Li Changyi's pale face, he continued, "Oh, don't you dare? Miss Zhang has a pinch mark on her neck, and her nails are cracked; I think the young master's hand was injured at that time. Is that right?"

"If you still want evidence, Zhan can list it again! After killing Ms. Zhang, you wrapped the body in a quilt and threw it in the lotus pond with Qiubi. The quilt is too eye-catching, so you can't just throw it away casually, and repeat the old trick. Attempt to charcoal burn the blood-stained area in it. Claim that you accidentally dropped the quilt on the charcoal basin. The charcoal basin is so far away from the bed, how did you accidentally drop it on top of the charcoal basin? And the quilt was not Abandoned as you thought, do you want to see?"

Li Changyi couldn't sit still any longer, and got up from the bed: "How to explain the tassel that Yun Xuan is holding?"

Zhan Zhao placed Li Changsi's jade pendant on the table: "You probably don't know that this jade pendant is your biggest failure."

"What?!" Li Changyi stared wide-eyed, without a trace of his former elegance.

"The string on the jade pendant is tough and not easy to break, and the jade pendant fell into Ms. Zhang's room, which is unreasonable. First, it is easier to tear off the jade pendant than the tassel; In the room, the second son will not come back and kill Miss Zhang at the risk of being discovered by Qiubi; three, Miss Zhang is still useful to the second son, at least there is no motive to kill her; It's been swapped."

Li Changyi took a step back and sat down on the chair.Zhan Zhao continued: "The truth is - when you and Qiubi went to the lotus pond, you were caught by a rockery and tore your clothes, and even tore off the tassels on the jade pendant. Qiubi remembered that the second son sneaked back to the mansion for a private meeting at night on the Yuan Festival." Miss Zhang lost the jade pendant during a dispute, so she stuffed the tassel into Miss Zhang's hands; then Qiubi exchanged the strings of the two jade pendants in an attempt to put the blame on the second son. But you don't know, the second son pays attention Appearance, even the thread on the jade pendant has to be changed frequently, and the maids are even asked to weave the most fashionable patterns." Zhan Zhao lifted the jade pendant and shook it. "And the strings and patterns on this jade pendant are different from the original ones. Can you take out your jade pendant so that the servant girl next to the second young master can identify it?"

How could it be so!Li Changyi's face was pale, and his attempt to set the blame turned into fatal evidence!Zhan Zhao actually pried Li Changsi's mouth open in such a short period of time. He thought Li Changsi would not admit to poisoning and raping Zhang Yunxuan, but he didn't expect Zhan Zhao to be able to do so, and the investigation was so clear.

Zhan Zhao looked at Li Changyi's look of losing his anger, and thought, why bother if he knew what he was doing today?Chao Hou waved his hand at the yamen servant outside the door, and said coldly: "Come here, escort me back to Kaifeng Mansion."
