Chapter 97

Hua Ting sipped a few sips of tea to moisten her throat, then raised her head and said to Xiao Bei.

"The eldest sister said that Mr. Xiao suspects that Zicun is the little master you have been looking for for many years. Now that Mr. Xiao has followed him here, he will not give up unless he investigates. Well, we just want to go back to Jiuqu County, so we invite Mr. Xiao Let’s go together.”

Xiao Bei clasped his fists and said, "Thank you Miss Hua for understanding my difficulties. I have been looking for my little master for many years, and I will never give up even if there is a slightest clue. If the investigation proves that Brother Ouyang is not my little master, I am willing to donate a thousand taels Silver as compensation, but if so, please don't prevent the young master from reuniting with the family master."

"It's natural..." Hua Ting didn't object, Xue Ling wanted to refute but was stopped by Hua Ting's eyes.

Xiao Bei didn't ask Ouyang Ji's opinion at all, he just bowed to Hua Ting and said, "Thank you Miss Hua."

Hua Ting said calmly, "Young Master Xiao doesn't need to thank you, I haven't finished my words yet, this is Zicun's own business after all, if Zicun is willing to follow Young Master Xiao to meet your Patriarch after confirming his identity, that's fine, if not It cannot be forced."

"This..." Xiao Bei hesitated, and said, "I'm afraid it's not up to you and me to decide. After the young master disappeared, my uncle searched everywhere. He blamed himself and died within a few years of depression. After that, I will take over from my uncle and continue to search. , so, no matter what, I must fulfill Uncle Cheng's last wish."

The meaning in the words is obvious, as long as Ouyang Ji's identity is confirmed, Xiao Bei will desperately take Ouyang Ji away to meet the Patriarch.

Ouyang Ji glanced at Xiao Bei coolly, with an indistinct emotion in his eyes.

"Young Master Xiao, please be more polite. If you are disrespectful to your sister, be careful and die without knowing how."

Xiao Bei didn't care about Ouyang Ji's threat at all, but his obsession with finding the little master made him subconsciously maintain respect for Ouyang Ji, and nodded with a nonchalant smile.

"Yes, I will pay attention to it."

Hua Tingsao was upset when she saw the casual expression on Xiao Bei's face, just like Xue Ling said, if she wanted to influence Ouyang and Yeer, she had to ask them if they agreed.

"I wonder if Mr. Xiao can borrow the flowers to listen to the picture of the lying pine tree."

After Hua Ting came into contact with Xiao Bei and experienced the feeling of grievance like Zhang Po's, she made a bold guess based on what she found in Zhang Po's house. Maybe the person who searched Zhang Po's house to find the picture of Lying Song was Xiao Bei.

When Xiao Bei heard this, his pupils constricted in shock, staring at Hua Ting as if he had seen a ghost.

Observing Xiao Bei's reaction, Hua Ting confirmed her deduction even more, and sneered coldly.

"If you want people not to know unless you do nothing, Mr. Xiao doesn't have to look at Hua Ting like this..."

Xiao Bei looked at the swearing Hua Ting and sneered suddenly, "Miss Hua can not only detect that I am following you, but even know such unknown things, it seems that I underestimate Miss Hua."

As he spoke, Xiao Bei took out the picture of Lying Pine from his sleeve pocket and laid it out on the table, leaving only a piece of white Xuan paper.

"Three, please take a look."

Hua listened not to look at the painting, but fixed her eyes on Xiao Bei, said.

"Is Zhang Po's death related to your little master?"

Xiao Bei frowned and let out a sigh of relief, rather depressed.

"It seems that Miss Hua is not thoughtful enough. I found this painting when Granny Zhang was taken away. Granny Zhang was not dead at that time..."

"No..." Hua Ting interrupted Xiao Beidao, "As you said, you found this painting before Granny Zhang died, and when you questioned Granny Zhang, she refused to confess. That's why you killed her. The purpose is to lead out the person behind the scenes who is suspected to be your little master, that is, the person who planned to build the Dian'en Pavilion back then."

Xue Ling and Ouyang looked at Hua Ting in surprise at the same time, Xue Ling asked doubtfully, "How did the second sister know?"

Hua Tingdao, "I deduced it all from the recent events..."

After all, Hua Ting turned to Xiao Beidao, "Young Master Xiao, there is no need to rush to deny it, because some things can be denied without denying it. As for this painting, I can tell Young Master Xiao that it is just a piece of waste paper, and its only use is to prove You are the one who goes all over Mrs. Zhang's house."

Xiao Bei smiled wryly, "I really didn't realize that Miss Hua is so smart, Xiao is willing to bow down and admire her."

"So, who is your master?" Hua Ting was not in the mood to make anyone admire her, she just wanted to find out about Ouyang Ji's life experience as soon as possible, and didn't want to be kept in the dark and let others slaughter her.

Hua Ting pressed on at every step, directly hitting Xiao Bei's defense, Xiao Bei hesitated.

"You don't have to say it..." Hua Ting said, "But I want to remind you that the people in the Dian'en Pavilion have already set their sights on us. Once you get together with us, it is very likely that you will hurt your master."

A cold light flashed in Xiao Bei's eyes, and his voice was as cold as iron, "What is the Dian En Pavilion, it's just low-end goods, the reason why they are kept is just because..."

Speaking of this, Xiao Bei glanced at the silent Ouyang and changed his subject.

"It's not that Xiao is boasting. Before the identity of Brother Ouyang is confirmed, as long as Xiao is here, let alone Dian En Pavilion, even if the king of heaven comes, he will never touch Brother Ouyang."

This is what Hua Ting wanted, and he nodded when he heard the words, "Forgive Hua Ting for being unreasonable, if it is confirmed that Zicun is not the little master that Mr. Xiao said, can Hua Ting ask Mr. Xiao to help clear up the scum of Dian'en Pavilion, and return Jiuqu County?" peaceful."

Xiao Bei is full of confidence, which shows that the master behind him is definitely not an ordinary person, and it is easy to kill someone, which has to make Hua Ting think about it.

"You want to use my master to deal with Dian'en Pavilion?"

"Exactly. After all, in the eyes of your master, the Grace Pavilion is just a bunch of rabble, but in the eyes of us ordinary people, it is a huge monster, an existence that can swallow us silently."

Dian'en Pavilion is a thorn in Ouyang Ji's heart, and Hua Ting hopes to use Xiao Bei's hand to pull out this thorn. Ouyang Ji is moved by Hua Ting's good intentions, and quietly reaches under the table to hold Hua Ting hand.

Suddenly Ouyang Ji held the catkin, Hua Ting gave Ouyang Ji a sideways glance, Ouyang Ji smiled, squeezed Hua Ting's hand and took it back.

"I can inform the Patriarch, but I cannot decide whether the Patriarch agrees or not."

Xiao Bei obeys the orders of his master, of course Hua Ting can't force others to make things difficult, he expressed his understanding, "Young Master Xiao will do his best, as for taking Hua Ting, he doesn't force it."

After negotiating terms with Xiao Bei, Hua Ting ordered the servants to take Xiao Bei back to the guest room where they lived before, and the three of them continued to sit in the main hall to discuss matters, but at this time the servant came to report that someone begged to see Xue Ling.

Xue Ling's eyes lit up immediately, and he said, "It should be the person who was sent to the Jing Manor to investigate Shi Niang has returned."

Because of Xiao Bei's appearance, the three of them had doubts about Ouyang Ji's life experience, and immediately ordered his servant to bring someone to see him.

A young man who imitated Xue Ling came in and was slightly taken aback when he saw other people present besides Xue Ling.

Xue Ling always said humanely, "These two are my sworn brothers to Jinlan, so there is no need to shy away from it."
