"I want to... do it."

Of course Liu Li couldn't follow Ning Zisheng directly, but she could take advantage of Ning Zisheng's absence to find out.

"[System] is this?"

"That's right." Liu Li took it for granted, "Is there something wrong?"

The system still maintains the same two words: "That's it?"

And Liu Li was noncommittal about this.

It is said that the moon is dark and the wind is high at night, when people are murdered and set on fire.

Now the moon is hidden behind the dark clouds, and there are only a few sparse stars left in the entire night sky. If you don't bring up the lamp, you can't illuminate the road in front of you, and you can barely see the outline of the mansion in front of you.

But this is not a problem for Liu Li, because the spirit body has its own night vision, and with just a glance, it can be seen that there are vigorous and powerful characters written on the plaque——

Meng.

"Tonight seems to be a good time to kill."

"[System] You don't know? Are you really going to kill people?!"

Liu Li was very perfunctory: "Yeah, kill them directly, and then lay their bodies on the ground. The enthusiastic people who passed by the next day reported directly to the authorities. Since there are no witnesses, who is the murderer? unsolved mystery."

"【system】……?"

Seeing that this fool actually believed it, Liu Li was overjoyed: "Excuse me, you have studied human psychology for so long, why can't you understand the change of tone?"

Not to mention that Ning Zisheng and the Meng family are not going to die forever, she, a person with modern values, naturally wouldn't? She would have the idea of ​​killing casually.

Besides, if Ning Zisheng really had such intentions, the Meng family would not live long.

The Meng Mansion occupies quite a large area and is very grand. There are two exquisite lanterns hanging at the door, and faint flames flicker in it.

Looking down from the sky, Liu Li could see the servants walking around in a small area.

There were several courtyards in the huge mansion, and there was no difference at a glance. She glanced back and forth several times, and finally got into one of the courtyards at random.

The night was so dark that even if the master was talking privately, it was time to stop by now, so Liu Li was not afraid of witnessing something that would make people blush and heartbeat.

The person lying on the couch was Mr. Meng, who was soundly asleep, snoring lightly from time to time.

"[System] You don't know? Are you looking for that 'tattoo' you haven't seen before?"

"Correct."

Liu Li approached cautiously, and gently opened the collar and cuffs of his inner jacket a little, but he didn't see anything.

That day, Meng Xiran searched for the driver's neck and wrist for a while, and recognized that it was her brother's man, so Liu Li couldn't help thinking in this direction.

However, it is normal to find no clues on Mr. Meng, because tattoos were a form of punishment in ancient times, and only those who were punished were tattooed and tattooed.It was a shame at the beginning, but it didn't become a special custom until later.

So even if they have any special marks, they will only stay on the slaves.

Therefore, Liu Li's eyes turned to the maids outside the night watch and the guards outside the courtyard, but after searching, it was still fruitless.

Their necks and wrists are clean and free of any marks.

The other courtyard belonged to Mrs. Meng and Master Meng. Liu Li didn't go in to take a closer look, but only preconceived that they should stay together.

There are quite a few domestic servants on watch outside, and the security is a little tighter than that in the previous yard, but it still can't hinder her.

The cool wind brought by the spirit body blew from a strange direction, blowing open the openings of the clothes of several people, exposing the skin.

Still nothing.

Liu Li was confused.

After delaying for about two sticks of incense, she became even more confused.

The Meng Mansion looked peaceful. There were no private soldiers or suspicious people waiting to come and go. Liu Li basically went around all the courtyards, big and small, and found nothing wrong.

Well, now only Prime Minister Meng's own yard is left.

The ancients used to go to bed early, and the prime minister was old. Liu Li thought about it now? The old man should have had a rest long ago.

But after floating into the courtyard, Fang found that the lights in the room were still dimly on, but it was covered by the shade of trees beside the courtyard, so it was not very obvious.

There are stone tables and chairs under the tree, Liu Li sat on it casually, and saw two faint shadows reflected in the window, and then, a thick and deep voice came to his ears, sounding like an old man?:

"I have decided on this matter, so there is no need to discuss it again."

Based on the vicissitudes of the voice, he also knew that this was Prime Minister Meng himself.

"Father, please think twice! If you just resign and return to your hometown, everything you have done before will be for naught."

This is a middle-aged male voice.

"This is Prime Minister Meng's son, Meng Xiran's father?" Liu Li frowned as he looked at the information given by the system, "I thought he had already fallen asleep, but I didn't expect to be talking at night while holding candles."

...Wait, it seems that the point is not here.

Master Meng said just now that the prime minister is going to resign and return home?

Ok? ? ?

"【system】?!"

Liu Li signaled it to keep quiet.

Prime Minister Meng said angrily: "Why do you still say this in the face of a catastrophe? It's what you, a bastard, committed, and now you've been caught, and the whole family will bear the consequences for you..."

There was a burst of reprimands after that. Old Prime Minister Meng was very eloquent. He scolded his son so bloody that he didn't dare to say a word.

"The [system] situation doesn't seem right."

"Does it need to be said?" Liu Li murmured, "I was cheated."

"[System] was deceived? Who was deceived?"

"...Of course it's Ning Zisheng."

Xiao Jiu has already quietly forced Prime Minister Meng to the point of resigning. In this battle between the monarch and his ministers, it is needless to say who will win and who will lose.

But what was Zhao Xiaorui talking about?She said that the matter of the Meng family was extremely difficult, and Ning Zisheng even had scars on his hands caused by it.

Now it seems that what they are doing has nothing to do with the Meng family.

"Xiaorui told Yan'er that way, I'm afraid it was Ning Zisheng's instruction. She had already guessed that I would eavesdrop in the form of a spirit body, so she told Xiaorui to say that in advance..." Liu Li thought more and more Makes sense, "And then he lied himself, just to lure me...out?"

Everything suddenly became clear.

The Meng family is not an important NPC, and if the Daughter of Destiny wants to solve it, it is logically a piece of cake? This is what Liu Liyi found strange at first, because with Ning Zisheng's luck and identity , it is completely impossible to be so busy that you even get hurt yourself.

"Now I'm out, but she and Zhao Xiaorui stayed in the palace." Liu Li floated up from the stone table with a "swish" and went straight out of the hospital, "Good guy, you deliberately diverted the tiger away from the mountain, and you just don't want me to find out? What are they doing?"

Under the spirit body's anger, the wind was howling, and the leaves beside it were shaking.

At the same time, Meng Xiran, who was being blown by the wind, was rushing towards his grandfather with a surprised expression on his face.

This feeling that is so familiar that it cannot be more familiar is...

She seemed to have a feeling, and looked up into the sky, but saw nothing. She didn't know whether it was her own illusion, or she really felt Miss Liu's breath.

Liu Li didn't want to talk to her, and just wanted to leave, when Meng Xiran fell to the ground tremblingly, and forced a sob out of her throat, saying:

"Did the Holy One send you here... to kill them all?"

...to kill them all? ? ?

It's only been a long time, and Ning Zisheng has already achieved this level. Liu Li now wonders if he, who was worried about her injury before, was deceived by lard.

How else could it be? Believe that little bastard's nonsense.

"Liu, Miss Liuli." Meng Xiran stared blankly at the sky, not knowing which direction to turn, and choked up, "Bao'er knows that he has no position to ask you to show mercy? But please be merciful, look at it For the sake of Bao'er's sincerity, spare my Meng family's life!"

Outside the courtyard wall, the girl cried extremely sadly.

"To do such things is indeed Father's sin..."

She was pear blossoms with rain, and while begging for mercy, she narrated the matter.

Liu Li listened for a while, and probably understood the whole story.

It could be considered that Meng Xiran was almost defiled by the coachman that day, and the reason why Meng Xiran was able to identify those who were her brother and stepmother was because she recognized the embroidery on the coachman's coat.

The servants of the Meng family have a strict hierarchy, and their clothes are also different. They were originally from her father's courtyard, and then transferred to the stepmother's courtyard.

This was an extremely small matter. Logically speaking, the clues ended here, but Zhao Xiaorui checked and found something different.

——The coachman has already married a wife, and his wife is a maidservant, and the wife's parents... don't know if it's because of their intuition, anyway, Zhao Xiaorui and the others went down layer by layer like this, and found out It's what Mr. Meng did a few years ago.

His father was a veteran of several dynasties and had a high position and authority. Naturally, Mr. Meng's official position is not that small; it's just that he is not as knowledgeable as his father, and he has always been suppressed.

Under such circumstances, he began to have some unruly thoughts, and even when Emperor Jiacheng was still in power, he turned his ideas on the court officials.

Mr. Meng thinks he has concealed it well, but in fact there are still traces to follow, under the mountain of iron evidence, it is irrefutable.

In order to save his son, the old Prime Minister Meng volunteered to resign his old age and return home, so he bowed his head to Ning Zisheng in a different direction.

"[The system] is a good method."

"Yes."

Liu Li was expressionless.

Right now, although Ms. Meng was crying, she explained the matter clearly.

About how Ning Zisheng's people visited the Meng Mansion, and how they "cut" some of Prime Minister Meng's disciples to make an example...

It has completely changed from a two-phase stalemate a few months ago to a unilateral suppression.

"So, who on earth has the ability to hurt her?"

Liu Li isn't in the mood either? Let Meng Xiran leave the Meng mansion without thinking, and let her feel lost at the same place, not knowing whether she really met Miss Liu or an illusion.

In short, Liu Li really couldn't wait to know what Ning Zisheng was doing?

What the hell is going on?... Dudu, can't tell her?

Inside the bedroom.

While the incense was burning, Ning Zisheng touched the round and bright pearl with his left hand, and gently put down something with his right hand.

The chirping of cicadas leaks in from outside from time to time, accompanied by the chirping of birds that have not yet fallen asleep, even though it is so light that it can almost be ignored, it is still disturbing in this quiet night.

However, it is only so for others.

This didn't affect Ning Zisheng, even in the slightest.

Because at that moment just now, she accomplished the most important thing.

It was something she had been waiting for for a long time.
