Rebirth from Nirvana: Poisonous Concubine

Chapter 86 Calculation
"Mrs. Hui, according to what you said, I put a rope by the lake. When the third girl and the major general arrived at the lake, I pulled the rope, and the rope tripped the third girl. Then, the third girl fell into the lake." In the lake, and the third girl is really like what you said, Madam, she can't swim, after a few splashes, she disappears."

Hearing this, Mrs. Chen was overjoyed, she really thought that Xiaoling was dead, and she was very excited, "In this way, the three girls have already died, so you are my daughter." No, you are the great benefactor of the entire Xiaofu." Chen said with a sinister smile.

"But..." When these two words came out, Chen frowned again, "But the young general can swim, and finally rescued the third girl from the lake." Chen thought carefully, He continued to ask, "Are the three girls dead?" The boy shook his head, saying he didn't know.

"What about the rope?" Chen was worried about the rope, she was afraid that the rope would reveal her identity. "Ma'am, the rope is covered with mud from the bottom of the third girl's feet. If it's worse, I've already thrown it away." Hearing this, Mrs. Chen nodded in satisfaction.

It was already very late when I left Xiaoling’s house. When I returned to my room, the sky was already dark. Ling Chu raised his head. The night sky was exceptionally clear tonight, but the moon was gray. It's a sunny day, Ling Chu said, he went in to take a shower, changed his clothes, it was already completely silent outside, he didn't want to go out anymore, instead of this, why not go tomorrow
The next morning, as Ling Chu said, it was a sunny day.Ling Chu took the rope and returned to the lake. He walked around the lake and found nothing unusual. It seemed that the incident of Xiaoling falling into the water just now had never happened. The lake was calm, and occasionally there was a breeze. , there were microwaves rippling on the lake, blowing Ling Chu's messy hair.

Ling Chu remembered the rope he saw yesterday, he walked to the place where he was standing yesterday, and put the rope where it was yesterday. Ling's man was squatting behind that big rock at that time.

Ling Chu also squatted behind the rock, and he pulled the rope from the rock, just enough to restore the scene yesterday. It seems that this business appeared here is not accidental, someone must have placed it in advance. Here, waiting for Xiao Ling to fall into this trap, but the question is, how did they know Xiao Ling would come here.

Ling Chu walked over and looked at the rope carefully. There was nothing on the rope except the soil with the soles of Xiaoling's shoes. It seemed that this rope was a new one. At most, it was just bought not long ago. If you look for the selling place of the rope, there should be some breakthroughs.

Thinking this way, Ling Chu nodded for himself. At this time, the maid beside Chen passed by the lake, she didn't see Xiaoling standing by the lake, but kept walking forward. "You, come here." Ling Chu called out to the maid, who recognized that it was Ling Chu, and her heart tightened.

She timidly walked over, seeing Ling Chu frowning, she was very worried. "My servant has seen the young general." The servant girl saluted Ling Chu respectfully, Ling Chu nodded slightly, and the servant girl raised her head.She accidentally saw the rope Ling Chu was holding, and her face turned pale with fright.

Ling Chu looked at the strangeness on her face, and then at the rope in his hand, as if he understood something, he looked over carefully and realized that it was Chen's personal maid. "What's the matter with you?" Ling Chu asked softly, the maid didn't speak, Ling Chu fed her, and the maid trembled violently as if awakened from a nightmare.

"Slave is fine." Ling Chu didn't believe it, and lowered his head, trying to see the expression on her face and the strange light in her eyes. "If it's okay, why don't you talk when I call you? If it's okay, why do you get scared by me? I'm already the uncle of your Xiaofu. Am I that scary?"

After Ling Chu finished speaking, the servant girl shook her head again and again, "I don't dare to dare, even if I have the guts to accept the servant girl, I dare not not understand the general's words." Ling Chu nodded, how terrifying he is, look at the maidservant His face was pale with fright, as if his whole body was not feeling well.

"Okay, let me ask you, whose maid are you?" The maid suddenly felt a little relieved when she heard Ling Chu's question. In this way, Ling Chu didn't know that she was Chen's personal maid, but She just wanted to ask something, she let out a breath, a little thankful, fortunately, she didn't stop calling herself out of breath.

"If you go back to the general, the maidservant is the person next to the eldest lady." Ling Chu remembered that there would always be a girl in blue clothes by Chen's side. He had only seen a touch of light blue, but he had never looked at it carefully. Who was it before, so naturally I didn't recognize it today.

When the maid said this, Ling Chu suddenly realized.It turned out that she was Chen's personal maid. "Are you the lady's personal maid?" Ling Chu asked back, the maid nodded, Ling Chu smiled lightly, no wonder she had such an expression when she saw the rope just now, it seems that the rope is really real It belonged to the Chen family, so I had to find evidence to prove it.

The maid did not hesitate, and nodded her head readily. Ling Chu said, and lifted the rope in her hand, "Then, do you recognize this rope?" The maid was very experienced, she looked carefully Looking at the rope, he smiled softly, "The major general is really humorous. There are dozens of these ropes in Xiaofu, and they all look exactly the same. I'm not a housekeeper, so how could I remember?"

housekeeper?Her words reminded Ling Chu, yes, the whole Xiaofu is so big, how many things does that girl have, what is in the house is nothing, what is lost is not lost, it is not easy to find the housekeeper?Ling Chu smiled happily as if relieved.

"Okay, it's okay, you go." Ling Chu said, and the maid ran away happily, and went to Mrs. Chen's room. Ling Chu looked at the rope, which was left by Xiao Ling yesterday. The soil imprints were shining brightly, Ling Chu glanced behind him, "The scenery is really nice."

The maid had already run away, Ling Chu also patted the dirt on his body, walked eastward, looked for the butler, and found out whose house this rope belonged to, but it was really difficult, the rope They looked exactly the same, and the housekeeper didn't know whose house this belonged to.

The maid returned to Mrs. Chen's house. She brought Mrs. Chen some tea and told her about meeting Ling Chu just now, but she just concealed the panic she felt when she saw the rope. Calmly, Mrs. Chen listened, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Ma'am, I don't understand why you left that rope for Ling Chu. In this case, wouldn't it expose us? If Ling Chu followed the vine, we would be found out. At that time, it would be really troublesome." Ah." The maid said, frowning with confusion.

Mrs. Chen nodded slightly, and put down the cup of tea that she was taking a sip of lightly, "Then, what do you think we should do with that rope, so that it won't expose us and disturb Ling Chu's attention, So Ling Chu's thoughts fall into an endless loop?"

When Mrs. Chen said this, the maid still didn't understand. She thought about it carefully for a while, then shook her head. Mrs. Chen raised her head and saw the maid's innocent questioning face. She couldn't help sighing, why had she followed her for so many years? He doesn't understand his methods at all.

"The purpose of leaving that rope is to give Ling Chu this clue. As long as Ling Chu keeps looking down this rope, he will run farther and farther. On the surface, it seems that he is getting closer to the truth, but in fact, But the farther and farther you run, in the end, you will fall into a dead end and be in a dilemma."

When Mrs. Chen said this, the maidservant understood, and she groaned, and suddenly realized.Then he asked again, "But if we follow the clues of that rope, Ling Chu will immediately find out that the rope belongs to us. In that case, how can Ling Chu run farther and farther?"

Mrs. Chen rolled her eyes at the maidservant, "Why are you so stupid? That rope is not from the Xiaofu at all. Ling Chu will only return in vain if he goes to the housekeeper. He can't ask anything. That rope is I bought it from outside, it was new, and the person who bought the rope was a poor relative far away."

Only then did the maid completely understand, then Chen continued, "That relative is already dead. I didn't let her die. I also kindly took care of a carriage for her. Something happened to that carriage halfway. , Said that it was raining and the road was slippery, so the whole person including the carriage fell into the river."

In this way, when Ling Chu found this place, it was a dead end. At most, he could find that this rope was bought by a relative of the Chen family, but he had no way to prove that the relative bought the rope for the Chen family. It will take a lot of time to find where this rope goes. By this time, Mrs. Chen may have killed them.

The maid smiled knowingly and said that she understood. Mrs. Chen nodded, looked at the maid, and taught, "In the future, be smart, and you have to remember that the clues that are deliberately exposed are often not really valuable. Clue, follow this clue, it can only be in vain in the end."

After Chen finished speaking, she remembered Xiaoling's situation again, "By the way, didn't that girl Xiaoling fall into the lake last night? I heard that she was rescued by Ling Chu. I don't know what happened now. If I didn't die, it would be such a pity to waste my feelings."

The maid just went to Xiao Mansion to inquire about news, and just came from Xiaoling's house a few years ago, she met Ling Chu by the lake, and was stopped by Ling Chu. "Ma'am, you know that in the house of the third girl, the servants are the most secretive. If you want to find out something, it will be really hard."
