reborn son

Chapter 73 Chatting
Alas, Lord Zhen let out a long sigh. There is an old saying that everything that has been done will leave traces. Lord Zhen believed this, so he has been investigating the matter of his son's assassination. Today, he finally found something. When people died.

Now what makes Zhen Guogong feel worried is that his son asked again, what did he say?Said that his subordinates were useless, finally made a breakthrough, and the clue was broken again!
"Hey, just looking at your black face, you can tell that there is no progress. Forget it, I don't expect you to do anything. If you can't find it, don't check it." Li Dongyang waved his hands generously, as if you are really incapable expression.

There is a stone in Duke Zhen's heart, and he really wants to tell his son that he is really capable. The problem is, the other party is too cunning, and it is difficult to make progress if all the clues are erased.

"Don't worry, let's have some wine and supper together." Li Dongyang is a good son, he can stop the bleeding after being stabbed, Duke Zhen didn't know what to do to react well.

"By the way, has the little maid caught in the morning been interrogated?" Li Dongyang asked suddenly, and the butler who came in with the food box slipped, with a troubled look on his face.

"My lord, I'm sorry, the servant girl committed suicide."

"Oh, in my judgment, Mrs. Xie has been in the mansion for so many years, so it's impossible for her to have no backup." Li Dongyang had a clear expression, and did not blame the big housekeeper for it.

This made the butler blame himself even more, feeling that Xie's hand was stretched too far. He had already guarded against Xie's hand, but he didn't expect that someone would get a loophole in the heavy defense.

"Who did the servant girl have contact with before she died?" Zhen Guogong asked. Originally, he didn't care about the affairs of the backyard, but his son wanted him to manage the backyard, so he naturally wanted to take care of it.

"No human contact, just crashed into a wall and died shortly after the guard changed. I suspect the problem is with the guards, but none of them have been near the cell."

The big steward's self-blame deepened, and Li Dongyang's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and said: "Since it appeared on the guards, it's easier to do it. Search the bodies of the guards to see if there is anything that doesn't belong to them."

The housekeeper was puzzled, and Li Dongyang continued: "To threaten a person, it is not only a verbal blow, but also the person he cares about the most. At this time, only one item can play a role."

"Well, my son's analysis is right, let's check it out." Duke Zhen nodded with pride, almost boasting that his son is the smartest child in the world.

The butler's eyes lit up, it was true, the maid must have been threatened by someone, the butler left in a hurry, Li Dongyang took the chopsticks and said: "Hurry up and eat, I have to go to say hello after eating."

Pfft, Lord Zhen raised his head to look at the sky, well, he went to pay his respects after eating, the time was just right, anyway, today is not over, everything is within the specified time frame.

"Don't rush, eat slowly."

Lord Zhen was happy, but someone was unhappy. Mrs. Xie sat in the hall waiting for Li Dongyang to come to pay his respects. Unexpectedly, the left waited and the right waited. It was getting late, and there was still no one.

Sending someone to inquire about Li Dongyang, the maid told Mrs. Xie that Li Dongyang was with Mr. Zhen Guo, which made Mrs. Xie dare not even urge him. If he dared to urge him, Mr. Zhen would definitely accuse him.

Originally asking Li Dongyang to ask for peace was to take the opportunity to poison her, but now it's good that Li Dongyang tortured her!Mrs. Xie became angry when she thought about it, she looked at Mama Wang and gritted her teeth and asked, "Is the poison ready?"

Mama Wang nodded, feeling a little uneasy, and asked, "Madam, is this okay? It's not good if it's discovered, Mingxinyuan will soon have results."

"I can't wait that long, I want him to die, I can't wait for a moment."

Mrs. Xie wrung her handkerchief, her face was distorted, and her unattractive face became even more ferocious. Mama Wang sighed in her heart and dared not persuade her any more.

Stepping into the night, Li Dongyang was full of alcohol, walked briskly, and walked towards the Peony Garden with a smile, followed by Shi Shi and Mo Zhu, silently lighting a stick of incense for Mrs. Xie.

In the Peony Courtyard, the maid at the door saw Li Dongyang approaching from a distance, and hurriedly withdrew her head and ran to the hall to tell Madam the good news.

After walking all the way, Li Dongyang came to the hall swayingly, looking at Mrs. Xie who was sitting upright, cupped his hands and said, "The stepmother is well, another little maid died today."

Xie Shi tightly pursed her lips, and took a deep breath. The knife still couldn't hurt her. The little girl should be ready to die after she was found. It wasn't because she was cruel, but because her life was worthless.

"Yang'er is here, sit down, since you came back, our mother and I haven't had a good chat." Xie squeezed out a smile, and spoke while clenching her molars.

Li Dongyang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, it was something to do, he sat down as he said, and said with a smile: "Is there anything we can talk about?"

Mama Wang came in with tea, the corners of her mouth twitched, she felt that Shi Zi was speaking in a rhythm that choked people to death, even if they didn't agree, she had to live with face, people like Shi Zi who wrote their dislikes on their faces were really rare La.

"Master, please drink tea." Mama Wang put down the cup and invited Li Dongyang to drink tea.

Li Dongyang smiled, suspected that there was knowledge in the cup, Xie didn't look like a kind person, it would be strange if she would kindly invite herself to drink tea, thinking of Li Dongyang picking up the cup and opening the lid to sniff, his brows raised slightly.

"Good tea." Li Dongyang blew on the tea leaves, looked at Mrs. Xie, and asked, "Stepmother, what do you want to talk to me about?"

The word "stepmother" really hits the ear, and Mrs. Xie doesn't like to hear it at all, but she can't help but listen to it, who knows that this is the heart of Duke Zhen.

"Yang'er is also sixteen, I wonder if we can get married?" Xie asked casually, seeing Li Dongyang opening his mouth to drink tea, he was overjoyed.

Li Dongyang snapped the lid on the cup, and put on a look of serious thought, until the tea in his mouth was not drunk, Xie regretted opening his mouth, he knew that he would have waited for the bastard to drink the tea before asking.

"Never married." Li Dongyang thought about it carefully, and thought he should answer honestly. Heard that Lord Jingguo had prepared a young daughter-in-law for him.

"Really?" Mrs. Xie replied lightly, seeing Li Dongyang pick up the cup again, his eyes flashed with anticipation, Baba waited for Li Dongyang to drink, but saw Li Dongyang put down the cup again.

"I have already told my father about my marriage, and I will decide this matter myself, so I won't bother my stepmother." Li Dongyang smiled, and quietly mended the knife.

Hehe, Xie gritted her teeth and sneered, she really thought she liked to worry, she just wanted this bastard to drink the water in the glass, okay!

After finishing speaking, Li Dongyang stared at Mrs. Xie with a cup in his hand, with an expression of I'll chat with you and you continue to talk, Mrs. Xie was heartbroken and didn't know what to talk to Mrs. Li Dongyang about.

After waiting for a long time, Li Dongyang did not drink tea, Xie said: "Have some tea."
