I'm a detective for Dongchang

Chapter 121
Lu Ziyi strode out and asked his family to wait in the house.

Lu Xizhi heard his brother's voice: "Lian Shaoqing."

"Master Lu." Lian Shen's slightly cold voice sounded.

"I don't know what your lord Shaoqing is doing."

"I also invite Mrs. Li of the Lu Mansion to go to Dali Temple for questioning."

Lu Ziyi was startled, please mother?
"Mr. Lu, please don't make things difficult for us." Seeing that Lu Ziyi didn't move, Lian Shen's tone was impatient.

Lu Ziyi tentatively said: "My mother has always been weak, I wonder if my lord can ask questions here."

Lian Shen snorted coldly: "Young master Lu, you are also a scholar, so I don't need to explain the truth. Madam Lu had better come with me."

"Ziyi, come here." Li Wenjun walked over steadily, leaving aside the hands supported by the two aunts, and patted his son's hand to reassure him.

"The Lu family behaved righteously and stood upright. They were unfairly wronged and charged with serious crimes. Naturally, they have to reason. My lord will lead the way."

"lady"

"Mother"

Li Wenjun took a deep breath, turned around, and comforted his family and said: "What we have never done, we will never let others slaughter us. Dali Temple is a place for reasoning. I will go and reason now. I believe Mr. Cao will return me. The mansion is innocent, you are waiting at home for my master and me to come back."

She looked at everyone one by one, and finally, her eyes stayed on Lu Xizhi's anxious face, she smiled at her comfortingly, held her hand tightly, and said meaningfully: "When I'm not at home, you should take good care of the family. Usually, Lily is in charge of the arrangements in the courtyard, so you should ask her more."

"Madam Lu, please."

Li Wenjun tidied up his appearance, gave Lian Shen a disdainful look, and walked forward with air.

"Mother." Lu Ziyi chased after a few steps, but was stopped by officers and soldiers. He only hated himself as a scholar, and now he is useless.

After Lian Shen and his group left, the two aunts couldn't sit still anymore, and their panic reached its peak. Aunt Bai and her daughter hugged each other and cried, while Lu Ziyi stood in the yard with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance and wondering what he was thinking.

Only Lu Xizhi remained calm and composed. She carefully recalled what her mother said just now: Lily is responsible for the arrangements in the courtyard... In this way, my mother also has doubts.

Will it be Lily?
After she wore it, she didn't have many memories of this body, so she didn't know the origins of the maids in the family.

Lu Xizhi silently looked at Lily, only to see that there was a bulge between her brows, and her whole body was in a state of panic. I don't know if she was frightened by the scene just now, and her eyes were dull and dull.

Trying to suppress her restlessness, she decided to make a breakthrough from Uncle Chen first.

She walked into the courtyard and tugged on Lu Ziyi's sleeve: "Brother..."

Lu Ziyi patted his younger sister's head, "Unfortunately, for my brother, I understood the phrase 'a scholar with nothing to use', just now, I really hated myself, I couldn't even protect my family."

"Brother, you are still so young. With your grades, you will definitely be able to gain fame, and then you will definitely be a great official, benefiting the people, benefiting the country, and protecting your family."

"Xizhi, do you know how much that painting is worth?"

Lu Xizhi lowered his head and murmured, "If it is indeed the real work, it will definitely be priceless."

Lu Ziyi looked at her, "Are you afraid?"

"I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid of dying unjustly like this. I will definitely find evidence to prove the Lu family's innocence!"

"Brother, how long has Uncle Chen been at our house?"

Lu Ziyi thought for a while, "He is my father's servant, and he has been with my father since he was very young. Later, my father married my mother, made him a housekeeper, and arranged for a wife for him. My mother's real name is Ma Chunxiu, and she was originally a maid on the mother's side."

"What do you think of their character?"

"They are all old people who have stayed in Lu's family all their lives. They are loyal and loyal, so there is no problem."

"What about their son, Chen Erpang?"

"Second Fatty?" Lu Ziyi tilted his head: "He's quite a simple boy, he has great strength, eats a lot, and doesn't seem to have any bad habits. But..."

"But what?" asked quickly.

"Er Fatty's real name is Ma Ronggui."

"Ma Ronggui? Why is your surname Ma?" Lu Xizhi called out strangely.

"Uncle Chen and Mama Chen have been married for a long time, but they couldn't conceive a child. Later, the doctor diagnosed that Mama Chen had some physical problems. Uncle Chen's family was long gone, so they spent some money to adopt Mama Chen's family. The child of a distant relative came here, and this child is Ma Ronggui, also known as Er Fatty."

Lu Xizhi snorted, "If that's the case, the key...is more likely to be stolen or used."

"Why? Are you suspicious of Uncle Chen's family?"

"Brother, think about it, if Er Fatty knew about his life experience, and knew that he had a biological parent who was closer to him, would it be possible to steal something with the key to help his relatives, and this happened to be Someone with a heart took advantage of it." Lu Xizhi pondered.

Then she shook her head again, she also had a lot of contact with Uncle Chen and the three of them, they didn't look like petty thieves.

For a long time, neither of them spoke, and both felt an invisible huge pressure.

Bei Xue came over to remind her that it was time to go back to the East Factory, maybe the factory supervisor was already waiting for her.

Yes, the news from Yuan Yanxi is more important now.

"Brother, you take care of your aunt and sister at home, I'll go to Dongchang to see the situation."

Before leaving, he whispered to his elder brother. The other party was slightly surprised after hearing this, but nodded in cooperation.

East Factory
Before he could enter the gate, he was stopped by Nanyang who was at the gate.

"Miss Lu, please change into your clothes and follow me into the palace immediately."

"Enter the palace??!"

"Yes! Miss, please don't ask too many questions." Nanyang handed her the prepared clothes.

Lu Xizhi's heart tightened, and he looked at the maid's clothes in his hand, "Emperor, what does he mean by this?"
"Where's Factory Superintendent Yuan?"

"The factory supervisor is also in the palace, he told you to come with me at ease."

Lu Xizhi no longer hesitated now, feeling that it would be safe with him around, she rushed into the carriage and changed clothes, then followed Nanyang into another carriage, and hurried to the palace.

Royal Palace
"Hmph, you brat, you remember me as an old man when you have something to do! Cough cough cough..."

Lu Shun hurriedly handed over a cup of hot tea, walked behind Qi Tianyin, patted his back, and helped him calm down: "The emperor calms down, you see, Director Yuan is busy with his affairs, and he brought a lot of medicinal materials this time. With you, don't blame him by mistake."

"You are with him." Qi Tianyin pretended to be annoyed, but he couldn't hide his smile when he caught sight of the best ginseng on the table.

"Let that stubborn old man of yours come into the palace to play chess with me tomorrow, my hands are itching again."

"Yes, I will tell my father when I get back."

Hearing the word "father", Qi Tianyin was stunned for a moment, then smiled wryly, and couldn't help shaking his head... Yes, this is not his child after all, it just resembles her, that's all, every time he thinks of this, he still has endless regrets , if she is still alive, the children of the two should be so old...

Qi Tianyin nodded.

"Your Majesty, Lu Xizhi is coming soon. She is just a 15-year-old girl, innocent and kind. If there is any disrespect, please ask the Emperor Haihan. Yanxi is willing to take the punishment on her behalf."

"Look and see, this has been said for the third time, I'm so scary?" Qi Tianyin scolded him.

"The matter of the Lu family really surprised her a lot. I dared to let her enter the palace, fearing that she would lose her manners for a while."

"I still have the impression of that girl. She is calm and calm in times of danger. She must be quite courageous."

Qi Tianyin changed the subject: "I'm not a fool, I only care about evidence. The stolen goods found in Dali Temple are convincing, and Lu Zhonglian can't tell the origin of the things. If you are me, what should you do?"

Yuan Yanxi knelt down with a thud: "I dare not question the emperor's decision, but the secret letter to Dali Temple is really suspicious, and there may be other changes. I also ask the emperor to hand over this matter to Dongchang for a thorough investigation."

Qi Tianyin's eyes changed slightly, and he knocked on the table with his hands, making stomp stomp... sound.

"However, someone told me that you and Lu Xizhi have a relationship between men and women. Is this true?"
