The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 253

Two people missing?
Everyone in the room looked at Cui Yonglin in unison, their eyes full of suspicion and anger.

Mrs. Cui couldn't bear it any longer, and she took the lead in attacking Cui Yonglin: "Fourth, a son kills his father, it is against the law of heaven.

"The Duke treats you well, why do you want to assassinate the Duke?"

Treat him well?

Cui Yonglin sneered in his heart: "It's just that there are two missing people in the fourth room, so it's too far-fetched to say that I'm an assassin based on this alone?
"What's more, our fourth bedroom has been imprisoned here for ten years, and we can't even get out of the courtyard, how can we assassinate father?

"Mother and father are deeply in love as husband and wife, and want to find the murderer who assassinated father. I can understand your feelings, but you can't frame people at will, right?"

Mrs. Cui only felt that Cui Yonglin was mocking her by using the term "the deep love between husband and wife", and she suddenly became angry: "You don't admit it?
"Okay, then tell me, why are there two people missing from Sifang? Where did those two people go? What did they do?"

This series of questions will inevitably make people dizzy, but Cui Yonglin is very calm: "The servants guarding the fourth room are either father's people or mother's people.

"There are two people missing from the fourth room, shouldn't you ask your father and mother?"

"You..." Mrs. Cui's face was livid with anger, and she was speechless for a moment.

Inadvertently seeing Cui Quan's suspicious gaze, Mrs. Cui almost vomited blood in anger, stood up and pointed at Cui Yonglin and cursed: "Nizi, don't sow discord here.

"They are your people, but they disappeared after entering the assassin in the mansion. If this is not a guilty conscience, what is it?
"Say, where did they go?"

Cui Yonglin didn't want to get entangled with her, looked at Cui Quan and said: "Father, people in the fourth room have always kept their own law and order, and have never left the yard.

"I dare to assure you with my head that I have no grudge against you, and I will not do anything to harm you or the Yasukuni government."

Seeing that Cui Quan's expression softened, Cui Yonglin continued: "Father, just after the assassin incident happened in the mansion, there are two fewer people in my fourth house, so it's hard to guarantee that someone with a heart will take this opportunity to frame the fourth house.

"I also ask my father to find out about this matter and give me justice."

Someone with a heart?

This brat is talking about her, right?

Mrs. Cui was very angry, she pointed at Cui Yonglin and cursed angrily: "Nizi, how dare you!"

"Mother calm down."

Cui Yongzong spoke out in time, interrupting Mrs. Cui's inappropriate words and deeds: "There is not enough evidence now, let's not speculate."

Then he said to Cui Quan: "Father, the mansion has been searched, and now only the fourth room is missing two people, they must have left the mansion among the guards.

"I think it's better to thoroughly investigate the guards who left the mansion first."

Being interrupted by her son, Mrs. Cui calmed down, she glared at Cui Yonglin, then said to Cui Quan in a slow voice: "Master, A Zong is right.

"These two people must have left the mansion with the guards. When you catch them and ask them, you will know who is the murderer behind the scenes."

Cui Quan thought for a while, and told Bai Qi: "You are injured and you should not act. Go tell Liu Yang, call all the guards who are out of the mansion, and see if anyone from the fourth room is among them."

"Yes." Bai Qi took the order and left.

The investigation will take time, so Cui Quan, Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Cui left the fourth room.

Before leaving, Cui Quan sent additional people to guard the fourth room.
-
The Yasukuni Mansion has a rule that those who leave the mansion must be reported and recorded in the register, but this time the situation is urgent, only the number of people has been reported, and the identity has not been checked carefully.

Bai Qi expected that something would go wrong, and his worries kept lingering in his heart.

Sure enough, Liu Yang returned to the study of Fuhai Courtyard after investigating, and reported to Cui Quan: "Master Guo, there are two less guards sent to intercept the man in black.

"I checked, they disappeared after leaving the city, and they are not on the guard list."

Sure enough, it was the two servants who disappeared from Sifang.

Cui Quan was furious, and slapped his palm on the armrest: "It's unreasonable!"

Everyone in the room hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty: "We are incompetent and failed to catch the assassin, please forgive me."

Cui Quan glared angrily: "The Yasukuni Mansion has always been heavily guarded, and there has never been a mistake. I didn't expect the assassin to escape today. How can I gain a foothold in the capital when word spreads?
"You are so lax and careless, how can I rest assured that the safety of the Yasukuni Mansion is in your hands?

"what--"

Everyone fell on the ground, not daring to breathe.

At this time, Cui Yongzong came in, knelt in front of the crowd, looked at Cui Quan and said, "Father, the responsibility for such a big incident in the mansion lies with me, I did not strengthen the defense and let the assassin sneak into the mansion.

"My son is careless, and I ask my father to punish me."

Cui Quan's anger froze.

The elder son has always been responsible for the defense of the mansion. Speaking of which, the elder son should be responsible for what happened, but the elder son is his most important son and the eldest son of the Cui family. How could he punish the elder son in public and let the elder son Lost face in front of subordinates?
Thinking of this, Cui Quan said with a stern face: "Today's matter will be pursued after the assassin is caught. Whether you can make atonement is up to you."

Everyone was overjoyed: "Master Xie Guo, we will definitely do our best to catch the assassin."

"Get up."

Cui Quan also ordered: "Continue to track down the assassin, remember, don't leak the news and investigate secretly.

"Also, go and bring the fourth child here."

Everyone took orders and acted independently.

Bai Qi stood still and didn't move until everyone else had left the study before he walked up to Cui Quan: "Master Guo, I have something to report.

"At that time in the study room in the front yard, when we surrounded the man in black who assassinated you, another man in black came from behind.

"He said something to me at the time, which made me unsteady and let them take the opportunity to escape."

Bai Qi has always been steady, it must be something unusual to make him unsteady.

Cui Yongzong came over and asked for his father: "What did he say?"

Bai Qi glanced outside, and after confirming that it was safe, he lowered his voice and said, "He said 'the secret of the Cui Mansion has been leaked'."

Hearing this, Cui Quan and Cui Yongzong's expressions changed drastically.

After recovering, Cui Quan asked eagerly, "What else did he say?"

"Then they escaped and didn't say anything else." Bai Qi paused, and continued to report: "I asked other people, and those men in black didn't say anything wrong to them.

"I thought about it later, the reason why the man in black said this to me was probably to disturb my mind, so as to take the opportunity to save my companion from leaving.

"Otherwise, if he grasps the secret of the Cui Mansion, he can use this secret to blackmail you and save all his companions from the Yasukuni Mansion.

"However, instead of doing this, he took Yuan Niang hostage, which means that they don't know the secret of the Cui Mansion."

Cui Yongzong slightly nodded: "You are right, this person probably doesn't know the secrets of the Cui Mansion."

However, Cui Quan said: "It is better to believe what is there than not to believe what is not. This matter is related to the survival of the Yasukuni government. It is better to be cautious."

Then, Cui Quan ordered Bai Qi: "Send more people out, pay attention to the movements of the various prefectures in the capital, and report any changes to me in time."
