Chapter 43

At this point, everyone reacted.

On weekdays, she looked at an ordinary maid, but she knew martial arts, and she was not bad at all.

Otherwise, how could it be possible to overwhelm the enemy with one move and still reveal such killing intent.

The speed was so fast that no one expected it.

By the time he reacted, the fifth old man's wailing had already spread throughout the flower hall.

Shang Yu'an, Shang Wulang and his son turned pale with fright, and ran over immediately.

Said anxiously.

"What do you want to do? Why don't you let my grandfather go quickly?"

"It's against the sky, a little girl dares to make trouble in the Duke's mansion, beating the fifth old man is a capital crime, are you tired of living?"

The two said they were about to come forward to pull Lizhu's hand, but they were surrounded by the Dongyuan boys who rushed in from outside.

Seeing that the good situation was suddenly like a turtle in a urn, no matter how loud Shang Yu'an's voice was, it died down at this moment.

Pulling his son, Shang Wulang, he took a step back, looked at Du Jingyi rather apprehensively, and said.

"What do you want to do?"

Du Jingyi smiled, sat down at this moment, and then said calmly.

"Look at what Uncle Fourth said, didn't you come to talk to me early in the morning? Why did it become what I want to do again?"

"Speak as you speak, why are you moving your hands?"

Wulang's daughter-in-law was also terribly frightened, but the one who lost the battle still sternly replied.

Unexpectedly, Du Jingyi smiled, and when he looked at her, he was more threatening.

"Sister-in-law Wu is right. Talk as soon as you speak. Why do you move? But just now I saw my uncle Wu rushing over and trying to beat me up. I'm afraid that's why I'm going to succeed, right?"

"You! Whoever said that grandfather was going to beat you, he obviously wanted to get closer to talk to you."

Shang Goro opened his mouth and began to argue.

Today, I don't want to talk about Qi Er's matter, but I have to settle the fact that Du Jingyi connived at his servants and injured his master.

In this way, they can be regarded as holding the handle in their own hands, so that they can get the job they want.

It's a pity that he had good thoughts in his mind, but Du Jingyi was the one who couldn't hold back his opponent.

She picked up a cup of tea in her hand and smelled it, then said with disgust.

"This tea is not good, why does it smell musty?"

He didn't take Shang Goro's words.

Seeing that she ignored him, Shang Wulang was very angry.

But the grandfather on the ground was still screaming, and there were servants and women standing all around.

Given that these few people want to be hostile to so many people, they are afraid that the sheep will fall into the tiger's mouth.

Therefore, it is not easy to provoke a war again.

Seeing Shang Wulang, he only dared to hum and chirp to say something, but he didn't dare to make any substantive actions.

Du Jingyi already had an idea in his heart.

It seems that the five old masters are not very important to them.

Since it is a mess, why bother to act as if they are united.

So, after thinking about it, I decided to break it one by one.

The hardest bone to bite is naturally the lunatic Fifth Old Master.

But the lunatic also has weaknesses. For example, what he cares most about is probably the current Shanggoro.

After all, this is the only child and grandchild of their fifth family.

Even if Wulang's wife is pregnant, who can tell whether it is a son or a daughter before she lands?
Therefore, Du Jingyi aimed all his spearheads at Shang Wulang.

Then he said slowly.

"In Xiande's 12th year, the second steward of Qi relied on his distant relationship with the fifth uncle and grandmother to work as an errand in the Duke's mansion. At first, he was just a servant in the second door, running errands."

"But in just three years, he turned from a servant to a steward. It is said that he was recommended for the position because he was well-rounded and won the attention of the fifth cousin. Between 12 and 15 years, even when my mother-in-law, Mrs. Gu, was in charge of the house, I never heard of the great ability of this Qi Er steward?"

She spoke calmly, but Shang Goro's heart tightened.

Qi Er was able to become a manager from a young servant, naturally because he participated in some shady things and made great contributions to Wufang.

I thought that after so many years, this matter has long been forgotten.

But I didn't expect that Du Jingyi would find out today.

She has only been in the mansion for three years, how could she know about that!
Could it be that someone has informed you?
Du Jingyi could clearly see the panic that flashed in Wufangren's eyes.

There was a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, and she continued to speak with a hint of sarcasm.

"Nurse Dou, I remember you mentioned to me that it was Xiande's 16th year when Mrs. Wei took over as the Mrs. of the Duke's Mansion, right?"

"Mrs. Hui, yes."

"Then the person in charge of Qi Er is really talented. He stepped on my mother-in-law to delegate power. In the spare days when Mrs. Wei took over, he was promoted very fast. I don't have to let outsiders know. I thought he did something to be seen. What is the fate of people?"

When Du Jingyi spoke, it was like the judges in the playbook were judging the case.

Every sentence fell into Wufangren's heart like a case-by-case shooting.

They were so frightened and frightened.

Especially the fourth wife, Mrs. Ni, who was visibly flustered with the naked eye.

If you look carefully, the beads of sweat are almost sent to the bun.

One look and you can tell there must be something tricky inside.

Not long after Du Jingyi finished speaking, even the fifth old man who was struggling on the ground didn't dare to say anything.

It's easier to talk about other things, if that matter is really dug out, then it would be impossible for the people in the fifth room to gain a foothold in the Duke's mansion.

Therefore, he also felt guilty.

Steward He and Aunt Dou have such sharp eyes that they can see the flaw all at once.

He quickly thought back to what happened back then, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of any flaws.

Even those who have personally experienced it don't know about it, so how did the young lady know the secret?

The two were even more puzzled.

Shang Yu'an is the most suspicious.

Seeing Du Jingyi saying a few sentences, everyone in the room fell silent.

He also felt very scared.

But the more this kind of time, the more calm you have to be.

It happened ten years ago, not to mention the evidence, even the only person who witnessed it, Manager Qi Er, was completely dead.

So, so what if it was found out?
Can they all be sent to the authorities for investigation?

He didn't believe it.

So, that's the tone of the bet, Shang Yu'an stood up and said calmly.

"I don't understand what Liulang's daughter-in-law said. Today we came here just to ask why Liulang struck so hard that he would kill someone. After all, we are officials and have laws. Yes, killing a servant indiscriminately like this is a bit too vicious."

He opened his mouth to turn the situation around.
