Dear Mr. Darcy [Pride and Prejudice]

Why did Emma appear here?This is a long story.

Time travels back in time.

George and Emma traveled all the way back to Yorkshire two days later.As in the past, the butler and the servants waited for the master to return in front of the gate of Manfel.George frowned after taking a look from a distance. "Why are there so many people?"

Emma opened the window of the carriage a little, squinted her eyes and looked carefully. "Probably Mr. Housekeeper is a little worried."

George frowned even tighter.The butler's actions are understandable, but leading someone to protect him with such a big fanfare at this time is likely to cause panic.The butler was loyal, but timid and not smart enough.After the old Mr. Kentra was killed, he didn't know whether George was the murderer, and he hesitated whether to go in person or stay in Yorkshire and send someone, and he was entangled in who to send.It took three days before several people were sent to Derbyshire to assist with the investigation.If it hadn't been for Emma's decisive decision, George would have been killed long ago.

Emma has always behaved like a standard lady in public, and she did not make any comments on the butler's behavior.Just smiled at George reassuringly.

George was appeased, now is not the time to be dissatisfied with the housekeeper.With this kind of mentality, he didn't show any impatience in the face of the sad and sighing housekeeper. "Where is John's body?"

The housekeeper paused for a moment to sigh, and replied: "His other relatives are not in Yorkshire, and he is not married. After the coroner's examination, the police officer asked us to temporarily put his body at home. Alas, what an unfortunate man. John I usually have no enemies, maybe the real target of the murderer is you, please be careful."

The butler was very kind, and George nodded to show that he would pay attention: "Thank you."

George didn't go out, and asked someone to bring all the information about this matter so far, and checked it with Emma.

Emma carefully checked the autopsy report of John's body. The wounds were all concentrated in the limbs and other non-fatal places. There was no head injury, and the only fatal injury was the throat.Emma sighed: "Brother, things may be troublesome." Why do you want to torture and then kill without hatred?Most likely to ask him to do something or press him for something.But John failed to meet the murderer's request out of his own will or objective conditions, so he was brutally killed.

After listening to Emma's analysis, George's expression turned ugly.This is the worst case scenario.

Emma murmured: "If you want him to do something, the most likely thing a family doctor can do is to harm people. No, it shouldn't be asking him to do something. John is the son of the old housekeeper, and he is also the son of the Kentra family. Very loyal, it is impossible to agree to harm us just because of a severe beating. If you want to press the situation, arrest the old butler's son instead of the current Mr. Butler to prove that the incident happened before the old butler died. It should be the father's The enemy, the Clark incident, the rumor incident, and this incident may all be done by a group of people."

The relationship between George and John is not very close, but after all, they grew up together. After seeing John's body, George has been in a violent state. "I will never let them go!"

Emma tapped on the table with her right hand like playing a piano. "If it is really a group of people who do these three things, some of their characteristics can already be inferred. They are good and well-trained; they may have connections with South America; they are ruthless and don't care about the lives of innocent people; although in London and Kozwo Elder also has some opportunities to attack, but they have never appeared, and the scope of action seems to be limited. They can hide behind the scenes and never appear directly. Their identities may not be visible."

George imagined it based on Emma's description. "Sounds like a gangster."

Emma still felt that something was wrong. Although the gangster met most of the characteristics, the revenge of the gangster should not be so technical.And what are they going to ask for by kidnapping John?But she didn't have a better guess for a while.

George has already believed his own conjecture, and what he doubts is: "What enmity does my father have against the bandits as an earl?"

The two looked at each other, and said in unison: "It happened to my mother back then."

Emma asked: "Brother, how much have you found out about what happened back then?"

George is a little embarrassed. Although a long time has passed, his investigation still hasn't made much progress. "Father's relationship with our uncle, Mr. Brown, was okay. Even after Mr. Brown changed his surname, he occasionally communicated. The refusal to get rid of him should be to leave a way for the Kentra family. After you and your mother were kidnapped, father In fact, I promised not to move Mr. Brown for the time being, but I couldn't let him go because of the Duke's face, and I don't know why my mother was killed later."

Emma suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "Are those people hired gangsters or guys pretending to be gangsters? Mr. Brown is an officer, how much money does he have to hire gangsters? It's better to use his soldiers to pretend to be gangsters."

George frowned: "It makes sense, but if you are a soldier, you won't be shamed."

In addition to the identity of the group of people, Emma has another doubt. "If the father took revenge on the gangsters immediately after the mother was killed, why didn't the fish who slipped through the net come to seek revenge immediately? Is it because of some reason that he couldn't go out or what did the father do after he didn't act at that time?"

George regretted it too much. "I wish I hadn't burned the study down then."

Emma shook her head. "If the father really chose to take revenge later, there must be some reasons. For example, he couldn't find anyone who attacked the mother, or their identities made him scruples. He needed to plan carefully and use roundabout means to retaliate. If it is later For one reason, there is nothing wrong with burning the study in time. And I think there should be no trace of what my father did, whether it was in Swan Manor or in Manfair."

Emma's words made sense, and George was relieved. "That's right. Then I'll start the investigation from what happened back then and what happened this time. Whether it's a soldier or a gangster, they definitely look different from ordinary people. No matter how careful they are, they will definitely leave clues."

This is the best way at present, Emma agreed, and at the same time told George: "Don't go out and investigate yourself."

George readily agreed, and went to find someone to arrange an investigation mission.

With the direction of investigation, Emma's tense nerves relaxed a little.Although she is not very assured of the ability of George's men to handle affairs, she can only wait.

Just when it was time for afternoon tea, Emma came to the dining room, leaned lazily on the chair, took a sip of black tea.Too many things have happened in the past few days, and I have been pressing them in my heart. I have no time to think until now.

To this day Emma was greatly surprised that Mr. Darcy should like her.Mr. Darcy is a very standard gentleman of this era. He will appreciate respect and treat his wife tenderly, but fundamentally speaking, his wife and his status are not equal. He is the center of his wife's entire life.Elizabeth is smart and humorous, but in general her views on marriage and family are in line with the mainstream values ​​of this era.There are only two problems that Mr. Darcy will face when he marries her: one is that people who cannot accept Elizabeth's identity will refuse to associate with Mr. Darcy, and his social circle level may decline;The three views of the two are consistent, and there is no great deviation in the planning of future married life.Emma was different.No matter who she marries, she is an individual.Marriage is a choice of future lifestyle, and living together with inconsistent views may be very painful.For example, Emma thinks it is very normal for her to have her own career, and it is a sacrifice to give up part of her career for the family, but Mr. Darcy does not recognize her contribution.Another example is that in Mr. Darcy's values, Emma's asking her to make decisions on her own is distrust of him, and even to a certain extent, he does not respect him enough. His compromise is out of love for her, but Emma can't realize it. His contribution.If things go on like this, marriage will definitely go wrong.

Emma shook her head, shaking all kinds of analysis out of her mind.She didn't have to think about this question any more. Mr. Darcy had long said that marriage was a choice of way of life, and she should have given up after she explained the situation.Mr. Darcy's pride does not come from his wealth, but his morality and thought.He is good and right, so he has the capital to be proud of.Alvin may also consider changing his mind, but it is difficult for Mr. Darcy to make such a choice.

By the way, Emma thought of another problem. After George came out of Pemberley, he had a weird attitude. He observed her quietly for two days, and every time he mentioned Mr. Darcy, George's attitude was very unnatural.Did George know of Mr. Darcy's confession?

"Miss."

Emma's thoughts were still immersed in George's affairs, and she didn't react for a while.

"Miss, Baker brought a person back and said that he had fulfilled your order and he was found."

Emma's eyes lit up. "Let them go to the living room."

Emma had just sat down on the sofa in the living room, when Baker walked in with a man in coarse cloth with a braid behind his head, bowed and saluted Emma: "Miss, this is the person you want." Then he fucked again Said to the man in a Chinese dialect that he didn't know where he didn't know: "Chen, this is Miss."

Emma didn't hear him at all, and stared straight at the man.

The man lowered his head, not daring to look at Emma, ​​and bowed stiffly.

Baker quickly explained: "Miss, people in their country are like this. Men and women can't meet and talk casually. Please don't blame him for being rude." The businessman communicated, and he also learned a few words during this time, but it was not enough to communicate.After finding Chen, in order to prevent Chen from being rude in front of Emma, ​​he deliberately asked the missionary to tell the man the etiquette when meeting a noble lady, but the man was obviously too nervous to forget.

Emma glanced at him. "I know." Explain the habits of Chinese Qing Dynasty people to her?She knew it from watching palace dramas in elementary school, okay?

Baker remembered. "Chinese businessmen who come to our country will bring a few skilled people, and some of them have special talents. This is what you told me. I'm sorry..."

Emma cut off his apology. "You did a very good job in this matter. I will definitely do what I promised. And I will give you a half-month vacation starting today."

Baker thanked Emma overjoyed, but he still objected to Emma's order to let him go out first. "He doesn't speak our language..."

"I will." Facing Baker's surprised eyes, Emma smiled and said: "The power of books is infinite."

Just in case, there are two male servants in the living room, but neither of them can speak Chinese.After Baker left, Emma said softly: "Master Chen." After changing her body and not speaking Chinese for a long time, Emma's tone of voice was a bit weird.Why can Emily speak Chinese fluently?This question flashed through Emma's mind.But she has more important things now:"

I have one thing I want to ask you. "

The author has something to say: (づ￣3￣)づ Thank you for the mine of the name little angel~
