Not long after, Steward Du went back and forth, and asked respectfully to everyone again: "What do you want me to do, my lords?"
Hengbo stood up with a smile, and said, "Old man, let me ask you, does Mr. Gu, the teacher, have beautiful features, red lips and white teeth?"
Butler Du was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't expect the other party to ask such a question, he stared blankly at Hengbo for a while, and then said, "What do you want to ask, my lord?"
"I want to ask if your young lady and this Mr. Gu are in love with each other, are they in love with each other, and even have a secret relationship?" Hengbo smiled sweetly, and stretched out his two index fingers as a pair.
Steward Du shook his head immediately, and said seriously: "There is absolutely no such thing, my lord is not good at guessing."
Hengbo patted Butler Du on the shoulder, parted his red lips lightly, and said angrily, "Old man, I think it's because you don't understand style."
Xie Zaiyue: Sister Hengbo, isn't the old man letting go now?
Seeing Hengbo turning a gray-haired old man into a blushing face, Yan Han, who was watching the show, finally said calmly, "Butler Du, can you take us to Tao Tao's bedroom?"
Steward Du, as if he had been pardoned, quickly turned around and bowed his waist, making a gesture of invitation.
Xie Zaiyue passed behind Butler Du, and clearly heard him let out a long sigh of relief as if he had passed through a catastrophe. It can be seen that Hengbo's beauty is not something everyone can bear.
Butler Du introduced to everyone as he walked: "After Tao Tao's body was discovered, the Ministry of Criminal Justice has come to investigate, and asked them to take away any suspicious things in her room. Well, it must have been handed over to the police at this time." In the hands of Dali Temple."
Butler Du's words are true. The materials handed over by Zhang Buxun indeed contained a lot of things found in Tao Tao's house, such as hairpins, clothes, and melon seeds. I faintly feel that something is wrong, so I have to search it myself before I can rest assured.
In fact, to put it bluntly, under the influence of Duan Qiankun day and night, all the staff of Dali Temple subconsciously regarded the Ministry of Punishment as one of the most unreliable yamen in this dynasty.In Duan Qiankun's words, it is: "The Ministry of Criminal Justice, the place where so many unjust, false and wrong cases were born, and the paradise that many real murderers yearn for. The Ministry of Criminal Justice is the biggest stumbling block to zero crime rate in Biancheng!"
After meditating all the way, he soon came to the door of Tao Tao's room.
Tao Tao is Zhang Mengyao's personal servant girl. The two grew up together, and their relationship is unusual. Therefore, her residence is much better than that of ordinary servants. Not only can she sleep in a hut alone, but the furnishings are not inferior to In the living room of the senior nuns in the mansion, there are tables, chairs, bed cabinets, and a lot of furniture that should be there. Judging from the materials used in the workmanship, it is obviously not an ordinary thing for ordinary people.
However, as Housekeeper Du said, the inside of the house had already been turned into a mess, and there was nowhere to go.
In this situation, even Xie Zaiyue couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The punishment department is very rough."
Probably because his master is the boss of the Criminal Department, Steward Du blushed when he heard this, and said embarrassedly: "I'm a little impatient."
Xie Zaiyue picked up a few pieces of paper in front of him, barely made room for his feet, stood in and looked around carefully.It's a pity that the house has experienced the rough overturning of walls and cabinets by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and there is no trace of the owner's original living conditions.
Just wondering where to start, suddenly there was a lot of movement in the courtyard, Xie Zaiyue looked around, and saw the nurse in Zhang Mengyao's courtyard was blocking a middle-aged lady, this lady was tall, With a strong attitude, Mammy is old and weak, and lost after several confrontations.
No one stopped the tall and strong lady, she came straight to the people of Dali Temple with an angry face.
Xie Zaiyue wondered, "What's the situation?"
Steward Du didn't bother to explain to Xie Zaiyue, he trotted forward all the way, bowed to the woman, and asked, "Why is Second Madam here?"
The second lady raised her brows upside down and said sharply: "I haven't asked you yet, why don't you let me know when a guest comes?"
It turned out that the second wife came for Steward Du, and the four of them in Dali Temple cleverly chose to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
Steward Du's attitude was respectful, but his tone was very firm: "The master has ordered that this matter should be decided by the old slave."
The second lady hummed: "I am the hostess of the mansion, the master is not at home, how could it be your turn to be the master?"
Zhang Buxun has always loved work and not beautiful women. He would rather face the bloody storm in the court than watch the chickens fly around in the house. Therefore, his wife died and he did not continue to take concubines. He only brought his wife's dowry maid into the house. Taking care of her young daughter.
Zhang Buxun thought it was well arranged, and put all his thoughts on the officialdom, but he didn't expect that the second wife of Houzhai was the only one, and gradually became domineering. .
The second wife has big dreams, but her level is limited. Zhang Buxun has always refused to delegate power to her. This so-called "Madame" has always been famous and worthless, so she has to add drama to herself, finding faults from time to time, and brushing up her sense of existence.
Jiang is still old and spicy, but Steward Du is not afraid of provocations, and only replied solemnly and politely: "If Madam doesn't believe it, you can ask the master."
When the second lady heard the name of the master, she was indeed a little afraid, but after all she didn't want to show timidity in front of outsiders, she shook her handkerchief and said, "Of course I will ask, so you don't need to talk too much. First, tell me who are these guests at home? "
Butler Du leaned over and said, "Second Madam, there is no need to worry. If you don't come, I believe several adults will visit you."
Xie Zaiyue Xin said, butler Du is a good football player.
"My lord? Looking for me?" The second lady looked astonished, "Old Du, what happened?"
As he spoke, he took a glimpse, and saw four people standing behind Steward Du, all of whom were of superior demeanor and appearance, especially the white-clothed man at the front, just like the paintings collected in the master's study room, at first glance they were bright and elegant, and they looked like they were out of the dust. The meaning of the group, but if you look closely, it also hides the imposing aura of wind, sea and rain, which makes people have to look up at it.
Immediately afterwards, the beauty who looked like an ancient painting spoke.
Yan Han looked at the dazed second lady, frowned slightly, and said coldly: "I am the young minister of Dali Temple, and this visit is for Tao Tao's case."
The second lady suddenly came back to her senses, and quickly said: "It turns out to be Sir Shaoqing."
All of a sudden, the aggressive energy was gone, and he was as docile as a little sheep.
Butler Du hurriedly said: "My lords, you can ask Madam about the back house. Madam knows a lot about this."
The second lady smiled first, then said suddenly displeased: "Old Du, what do you mean, I'm the only one gossiping?"
Butler Du said sternly: "Don't dare, the old slave praises Mrs. Kua for her meticulous observation, and likes to trace everything back to the source. Only in this way can she grasp all the affairs of the back house."
The second lady covered her mouth and smiled, and said with satisfaction: "It's more or less the same."
Xie Zaiyue: "..." Is the second emotional lady a fool?
Hengbo had already burst out laughing, and said with emotion: "Second Madam, I like your character very much. When you go to my side in the future, I will definitely take care of you."
"Your side? Why am I going to Dali Temple." The second lady frowned in disgust.
Hengbo didn't speak any more, just smiled mysteriously.
Xie Zaiyue took a step forward and asked, "Second Madam, do you know what kind of conflict Missy and Tao Tao have?"
The second lady smiled when she heard the words, then rolled her eyes and said, "What conflicts can there be between the two of them? Okay, I'm going to wear a pair of pants soon."
Xie Zaiyue was a little puzzled, judging from Zhang Mengyao's performance just now, it was clear that he had some dispute with Tao Tao, but why did the second wife say there was no conflict?Logically speaking, the second wife and Zhang Mengyao's master and servant are not of the same mind, so there is no need to hide it for them. Such an answer only shows that she does not know.
Seeing that Xie Zaiyue bowed her head and said nothing, the second lady said again: "Don't you believe me, sir? You might as well ask the nuns and girls in the yard to see if it's what I said."
Xie Zaiyue raised her head and smiled, and said: "Of course I trust the second lady." After a pause, he continued: "I don't know if Tao Tao has any good friends in the house?"
The second lady thought for a while, and said: "The little girl is usually in Zhang Mengyao's courtyard. If we say we are friends, we are all from the courtyard." Day and night, I don’t know who I am embroidering purses for.”
The old mammy just got up and caught up, when she heard this sentence, she immediately asked with a dark face: "Second madam, you know about this kind of thing? You said that no one is arranged in the eldest lady's courtyard?"
The second lady didn't change her face and her heart didn't beat, she said: "I'm the lady in the mansion, isn't it my job to arrange servants?"
Xie Zaiyue waved his hand to signal the two to stop arguing.We are here to solve crimes, not to watch house fights.
Although the two didn't speak any more, you stared at me and I looked at you, still in a real fighting state.
Xie Zaiyue said helplessly: "Second Madam, Nanny, can you see me succeed?"
The old mammy then turned her gaze away and said, "My lord, don't listen to her nonsense. Tao Tao is only 14 years old and still a child. How could she stay up late to embroider purses for men?"
The second lady said coolly: "Could it be that Zhang Mengyao asked her to embroider?"
The old mother said: "It's about Miss Qingyu, madam, don't just talk about it."
The second lady spread her hands: "That's Tao Tao's own spring."
"You! Cough, cough, cough..." The old nanny coughed angrily.
Xie Zaiyue glanced at the two of them, and did not interrupt again, but lowered her head thoughtfully.After a while, he suddenly asked, "Where are those purses?"
Old mother: "There is no purse."
Second lady: "I'll take you to find it."
Butler Du gave the Second Madam a light look, and reminded: "Second Madam, if something is created out of nothing, and people are turned upside down, the old slave can only report back to the master, and the matter will not be resolved by then."
The second lady snorted, "I'll let the evidence shut your mouths in a moment."
After finishing speaking, she turned and entered Tao Tao's room, no matter whether it was jewelry bedding or paper books scattered on the floor, the second lady strode forward, stepping forward without hesitation, and went straight to a small basswood cabinet.
As soon as I opened the cabinet, three or four purses rolled out.
The second lady picked up an unfinished one, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's still there. I don't think the big men in the Ministry of Punishment will pay much attention to this."
Dali Temple and others sighed together in their hearts: The people in the Ministry of Punishment are really careless!
The second lady stood up holding the cabinet, handed the purse to Xie Zaiyue, and said: "Look at it, adults, there are mandarin ducks embroidered on it, and the sentence 'May you pick more, this thing is the most lovesick', And you said it wasn't for your lover?" While talking, he glanced at the old mother from the corner of his eye.
As expected, the old mammy was also shocked, obviously not aware of the matter, she stammered and said, "This... what's going on here."
Hengbo stood up with a smile, and said, "Old man, let me ask you, does Mr. Gu, the teacher, have beautiful features, red lips and white teeth?"
Butler Du was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't expect the other party to ask such a question, he stared blankly at Hengbo for a while, and then said, "What do you want to ask, my lord?"
"I want to ask if your young lady and this Mr. Gu are in love with each other, are they in love with each other, and even have a secret relationship?" Hengbo smiled sweetly, and stretched out his two index fingers as a pair.
Steward Du shook his head immediately, and said seriously: "There is absolutely no such thing, my lord is not good at guessing."
Hengbo patted Butler Du on the shoulder, parted his red lips lightly, and said angrily, "Old man, I think it's because you don't understand style."
Xie Zaiyue: Sister Hengbo, isn't the old man letting go now?
Seeing Hengbo turning a gray-haired old man into a blushing face, Yan Han, who was watching the show, finally said calmly, "Butler Du, can you take us to Tao Tao's bedroom?"
