Chapter 294 A Little Stupid Today

After Mo Zhu finished talking about the affairs of the Duke of Zhen, he talked about the news about Longcheng. Li Dongyang had been listening silently. Mo Zhu seemed to be eager to show his value, and he spoke very seriously.

Li Dongyang knows most of what happened in Dragon City. Li Dongyang still has eyes and ears in Dragon City. Although he didn't enter the city, he might as well let his eyes and ears go out of the city to report the situation.

Therefore, Li Dongyang can tell the truth from what Mo Zhu said, and listen to what is useful, and wave it to his ears if it is useless.

During the period, Bixia came in to deliver a cup of tea, and Zhang Sanniang came in to deliver pastries. Only then did Li Dongyang remember that there was another person like Zhang Sanniang, and almost forgot about this card.

While Li Dongyang was listening to Mo Zhu's story, Duke Zhen was also busy. He first went to Lu's yard to see the comatose Lu, and at the same time called the maid who came to take care of her to interrogate her one by one.

It was like opening a court trial, and the maidservants with livid faces were all terrified. They didn't expect Duke Zhen to attach so much importance to this child.

These maids hadn't been in court yet, so they lost their confidence first, so Lord Zhen quickly caught the clue, that is, the target was the No. 30 fifth-bedroom concubine Ruan Shi. As for why, it must be an old enemy.

Before the Lu family came in, the Ruan family was the most favored, but when the Lu family came, the Ruan family fell out of favor, and the Ruan family's children were also lost. Why can't I be born by the Lu family, so the Ruan family hated it .

Everything sounded so reasonable, and Duke Zhen also thought it might be so, so he sent someone to fetch Ruan, but when he arrived, he found that Ruan had hanged himself.

Duke Zhen went to see the scene in person. It was probably Ruan's guilty suicide. Duke Zhen found a reasonable explanation, so he reported the news to Mingxinyuan.

Li Dongyang listened to this series of coincidences, how strange it sounds, and since the Ruan family dared to kill, why did they commit suicide? Why didn't they have the courage to defend themselves?

Besides, Mo Zhu suspected that it was the Xie family who did it before, so Li Dongyang got up and left Mingxin Garden, and came to the Ruan family's courtyard, and saw that the Ruan family had been put down, and Zhen Guogong was standing in the courtyard in a daze.

Li Dongyang circled Ruan's family twice, picked up Ruan's neck with a folding fan and sneered, looked at Zhen Guogong and shouted angrily: "My dear father, come and see why the neck of the hanged person has different shades." Two strangle marks in one?"

What?Lord Zhen Guo quickly came over to watch, and sure enough, he saw strangle marks of different shades, and his whole body became ill immediately. Li Dongyang did not let him go, but continued to talk.

"Father, look at Ruan's hair. It's messy. How can anyone hang himself with his hair? There's also a crease on his neck. She's about to die. Why is she still struggling?"

The more Li Dongyang said, the more doubts there were, and the darker the town's face became. Thinking that this was the answer he gave his son, why did he feel his face hurt.

Li Dongyang got up and walked around Ruan's room, pointed to the ground next to the embroidery frame and said, "Why is it wet here? Could it be that the cup was dropped on the ground? What about the fragments of the cup?

Also, why is there a piece of paint missing from this table? Could it be that the chair smashed it? Who helped the chair up? "

After asking this question, everyone's eyes immediately turned to Bai Zhi, the little maid beside Ruan Shi. Bai Zhi's face changed color at that time, and Duke Zhen frowned. This is the most powerful big maid beside Ruan Shi.

"Tell me, if you dare to lie to me, hum!" Li Dongyang pointed at Bai Zhi and sneered, and Bai Zhi's legs trembled when he laughed. The prince is too scary, why did the careful planning end up full of flaws.

"Tell me, who ordered you to murder the Ruan family." Duke Zhen roared angrily.

Li Dongyang cast a sideways glance at Zhen Guogong and said nothing, but he was thinking in his heart that there was another room missing, wondering if the old man would make up for two more, it really hurts.

Bai Zhi collapsed on the ground in fright, with cold sweat streaming down her cheeks, she said after a long while, "No, it's not me, it's not me."

"Of course it's not you. You don't have the strength to strangle Ruan Shi to death. I'm asking who is the killer. You must know this person. Don't try to hide it from my eyes." Li Dongyang clicked his tongue and didn't look at Zhen Guogong. .

Well, Duke Zhen realized that he was acting a little stupid today. Why did his IQ drop when he met his eldest son? He was never so stupid before.

Bai Zhi shivered for a long time, and finally named a person, that is the gardener, ah, this circle is a bit big, unexpectedly involving the gardener, such an inconspicuous little person.

To be honest, Li Dongyang passed by the garden many times, and he really didn't notice the gardener, so he took his men and horses to find the gardener, not to mention, when he found it, the gardener was talking to the guard guarding the gate.

Seeing Li Dongyang and Zhen Guogong appear, his expression turned cold. He pushed away the guards and wanted to rush out the door, but naturally he didn't rush over.

Seeing that he couldn't escape, this gardener was also a ruthless man, and he committed suicide by taking poison directly. Li Dongyang was overwhelmed.

"Is this man a dead man?" Li Dongyang pointed to the gardener and asked.

Duke Zhen didn't know what to reply, he said he was a dead man, this man is a gardener of Duke Zhen's mansion, how embarrassing it would be to spread the word.

"Investigate, you continue to investigate." Li Dongyang waved his hand and left, knowing that the investigation of this matter is over here, unless he can find out who the gardener is.

But for such an ordinary character, who would notice it? Li Dongyang didn't bother to investigate further, but wondered if he would be in such a mess if he built a harem in the future.

If this is the case, hehe, we still have to be cautious about this harem, whether it can be built or not, it's too messy and tiring.

Duke Zhen didn't know that the eldest son had thought so much, and now he would start to face this matter squarely. This is not a matter of the death of a concubine, but that there is someone else's dead man in his mansion, but he hasn't found out yet.

This kind of person is too harmful. One day he kills a concubine, tomorrow he may kill the master of the house, and maybe one day he will suddenly explode and assassinate his eldest son.

Well, Duke Zhen never thought that the dead would assassinate him. In Duke Zhen's heart, the eldest son is the most important.

Therefore, the Zhen Guo government ushered in a new round of big investigations, and people were panicked, for fear that if something bad happened, it would cause them to fall into the pit and not be able to climb up.

When the news spread to Peony Court, Xie smashed several cups angrily. Xie really felt that it was not worth it for a concubine to get a dead man who had been lying in wait for many years, but who would have thought that the Zhen Guo Guild would investigate thoroughly.

It's not like they haven't done this kind of thing before, none of those concubine's children fell all over the place accidentally, but why did Lu's children attract attention.

No, it's the master who has a heart for the Lu family, that little vixen!
