The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

But it was said that the fifth girl of the Tan family accused the seventh girl of killing her sister, and the seventh girl cried for injustice in tears.Mrs. Tan looked at Seventh Girl and said, "Have you and Sixth Girl really visited Mr. Li?"

Seventh girl bowed her head and said nothing, but blushed.

A grandmother who didn't know how many times spat on her: "How shameless!"

Suddenly a servant girl said, "I saw Miss Seven in the back garden last night!"

Seventh girl hurriedly said: "Nonsense! I didn't leave the house last night."

Another girl said: "Seventh Sister, I went to look for you last night to beg for flowers, and you didn't look like you were here."

Madam Tan asked, "Where did you go last night?" Miss Seven blushed even more, but Daiyu saw that she was not guilty, but rather embarrassed.Mrs. Tan ordered: "All the maids and women in her room were interrogated carefully. I don't believe they are all iron teeth."

Miss Seven hurriedly said, "Ma'am, my daughter was really wronged."

Mrs. Tan stared at her and said, "Empty mouth and white teeth, I can't convince everyone. Do you have evidence?"

Seventh Miss hesitated for a long time, gritted her teeth and said, "There is no evidence, my daughter has witnesses."

"Who?"

She pursed her lips again: "Daughter beg...beg..." She couldn't speak again.

The fifth girl screamed viciously: "She has no witnesses, and she killed the sixth sister!"

Daiyu stared coldly at the side for a long time, then said, "I look at Seventh Miss as if I have something hard to say. I don't know if Seventh Miss can trust me?"

Seventh Girl nodded again and again: "Of course I can trust Junshi Lin!"

Daiyu said to Mrs. Tan: "I'm not from Zhangzhou, and I'll be leaving in a few days. Since Miss Seven has something to say, it's inconvenient to say it in public, so let her tell me."

Mrs. Tan quickly said: "Jiu Yanglin's military advisor is Zhuge, the daughter of the world, so please entrust the military advisor!"

Then they found a quiet room, and Daiyu and Miss Tan Qi sat in it, with a circle of soldiers from the Taiwan government guarding outside the door and windows.

Miss Tan Qi knew that it was difficult for her to pick it off, so she hurriedly said, "Mr. Lin, I will definitely not harm Sixth Sister because of that." Daiyu glanced at her indifferently.She hesitated for a long time, and finally said shyly, "Mr. Li and I have already made a decision for life. He was the one who invited me to meet last night, but he didn't come for some reason." Lin Daiyu couldn't help taking a breath.Miss Tan Qi proudly said, "Mr. Li is mine, why bother with her?"

The girl is only 15 years old.If she didn't know Li Qizhi's true identity, Lin Daiyu would be ashamed that he seduced the official's young girl; but she knew that Li Qizhi couldn't see the concubine daughter of a mere magistrate's family.If Lin Daiyu hadn't heard Jia Cong's many nonsense stories when she was a child, she would not have guessed the whole story.She closed her eyes and thought for a long time, then asked Miss Tan Qi: "Didn't the two of you know each other recently?"

Miss Tan Qi said shyly: "During the Chinese New Year, our family members went to offer incense together, and we ran into him on the mountain behind the temple."

"Whose idea was it that you and Miss Six went to spy on him a few days ago?"

"Mine." Miss Tan Qi lowered her head and fiddled with her skirt, "He sent someone to tell me that he was coming to our house. I haven't seen him for more than ten days, it's weird."

"Why did you pull Miss Six?"

"I'm afraid it will be seen by others, so it's good to have a cover. I also pulled other sisters, but she is the only one who is willing to go."

How silly!It's all down to the bone.Daiyu sighed secretly in her heart, and had a general idea, but it is not clear at this moment, and there is no evidence.She comforted Miss Tan Qi and asked her to sit down and wait for a while; then she got up and went out by herself.Mrs. Tan sat in the next room and waited.Dai Yunai saluted and said: "In my opinion, Miss Six is ​​probably not caused by Miss Seven. My daughter made a rough guess and needs to verify it. I hope Madam can help me."

Mrs. Tan hurriedly recited the Buddha, and said, "It's fine if it's not! If it were her, we would lose all the names of our family. Thanks to the military adviser for helping our family manage these messy accounts, please tell me if you have anything to do."

Daiyu said: "My little girl wants to borrow a set of ordinary servant's clothes from your mansion." She pointed to a soldier and said, "Let him change it, go to Mr. Li's residence and ask him a word. It's not that my little girl can't trust your mansion." Your servant. It's about the reputation and life of your lady, so don't let your servants know about it. They," she rolled her eyes, "are going to leave soon."

Mrs. Tan nodded and said: "Mr. Lin is thoughtful." Then she called a servant and asked him to fetch clean clothes.The soldier changed his clothes, and Daiyu quietly ordered him a few words; but he paid a military salute and walked away quickly.

Daiyu said again: "The dead Sixth Miss also has a personal maid? My little girl wants to ask her maid a few words."

Mrs. Tan hurriedly ordered someone to go to the mourning hall to call the sixth girl's personal servant girl over.Daiyu led the servant girl to another quiet room, and asked, "Are you six girls having an affair with Mr. Li Qizhi?" As soon as the servant girl's face changed, Daiyu knew she had guessed right. "When did the two of them meet?"

The servant girl said tremblingly: "During the Chinese New Year, my wife led the family members of the family to offer incense..."

Daiyu sneered and said, "It's easy." Then she asked, "A few days ago when he came to your house, your girl was dragged by Miss Seven to spy on him. Did your girl know in advance that he was coming?"

The maid said in a low voice: "I know, Mr. Li sent a boy to report. Our girl has not seen him for eight or nine days, and I miss him a little."

Daiyu nodded and said, "I roughly know what's going on. Your girl died without injustice, I'm afraid it's preordained."

She then came out to Mrs. Tan, without asking any questions, just waiting for the letter in peace.When the soldiers came back, they whispered a few words in her ear, Daiyu smiled and said, "That's true." She knew that the only second girl in the Tan family who had left the court was a direct descendant, so she asked Mrs. Tan, "Your family would like to choose Who are the girls who married Mr. Li?"

Mrs. Tan said: "The fourth girl and the fifth girl are sixteen this year, and the sixth girl and the seventh girl are fifteen. I plan to choose one of these."

Daiyu asked, "What kind of temperament is the fourth girl? How about the mother?"

Mrs. Tan said: "Her mother is from the mine in our hometown. She is honest and looks more ordinary. Mr. Li is an important staff member of the master, so he doesn't want the fourth girl to marry her."

Daiyu asked again: "Dare to ask your family's hometown?"

Mrs. Tan said: "Our family is from Fujian, and our hometown is Longyan in the north."

Daiyu's heart moved: there is a huge iron mine in Longyan, and although there are many mines in Jin State, there is no iron mine.After thinking about it for a long time, he asked: "Miss Si, the aunt's family, does it look good in the mine?"

"Her aunt's father and brother are all old mines, and now their family is in charge of the mine."

Lin Daiyu nodded, then called a soldier to come and whisper something, and the soldier led away.

Not long after, he came back and said, "Uncle Tan said that the military division's guess was good. He is skeptical about the other words."

Daiyu then told Mrs. Tan: "I have a general idea in my mind, but I need to think about it more carefully and straighten it out. I can't tell the cause and effect at this moment. And there is one more thing, which I just told Mr. Tan I went to investigate. I hope Madam will wait for a day or two, and the truth will come to light." Madam Tan said repeatedly, "I dare not."Daiyu said again, "Sixth girl's death is absolutely irrelevant to Seventh girl, and Seventh girl was pushed by others to take the blame."

Mrs. Tan was shocked: "Could it be the fourth girl?!"

Daiyu hurriedly waved her hands and said, "No. If I'm not mistaken, this matter has nothing to do with the Fourth Miss." She stood up and said goodbye.

Mrs. Tan personally sent her to the gate of the mansion, watched her walk away, turned around and sighed to her confidant wife who followed: "It's a pity that my son is not blessed, this Miss Lin is so rare."

Daiyu led the people back to the camp, but it happened that everyone was discussing matters, so she pretended to be calm and said: "The fifth uncle has disappeared since he got married, and the S.H.I.E.L.D. I know." Everyone hurriedly asked what was going on.She said, "At first we thought that King Jin and Li Qizhi were looking for sea merchants to buy firearms, but we were wrong. They are going to sell firearms themselves."

Jarvis was surprised: "Where did they get the blueprint?"

Daiyu said: "We have our own methods, and others have other methods. The Ministry of Industry in Central Beijing also makes firearms." Nai said he was thirsty.Jarvis hurried forward to pour tea for her.She drank a few sips and said with a smile, "Li Qizhi's plan is not bad, but it is still the king's way. He beat around the bush, concealed it, and dare not be upright." She then told what she had heard and seen in the Tan family. I said it once.

Everyone understands what they understand and what they don't.Jarvis sighed: "Li Qizhi did it too harshly."

Daiyu sneered and said, "Hard? It's clearly incompetent. It's all right if they fight Dafangfang with Hongguji." Then she told Li Qizhi's plan that she had guessed.

Jin has no iron mines, and the nearby iron mines are in the hands of other princes.Li Qizhi originally came here for the Tan family's iron mine in Longyan, and he had already made plans to murder the fourth girl of the Tan family.Just now Uncle Tan said that because of their outstanding looks, the fifth girl was indeed Li Qizhi's idea for Tan Mo and sent them to Jarvis' bed.Regardless of success or failure, the fifth girl will definitely not be able to marry him.The other end hooked up with Six Girls and Seven Girls at the same time.The sixth girl probably got him to have a private meeting, died at the hands of his lover, and then tried to push it to the seventh girl.Although there is no proof, Miss Seven cannot marry him.In this way, only four girls are left.He could also say that he was tired of the two young ladies and was ashamed to stay in Zhangzhou, and went back to Longyan's hometown with the fourth young lady to take charge of the affairs of the Tan family.Even if the mines of the Tan family in Longyan had not been transported away by the King of Jin for nothing, they would probably be sold several times for the price of one piece.

Jarvis shook his head and said, "Why bother to come here, a handsome seven-foot man who spends his days plotting against his wife."

Daiyu glanced at him: "Isn't it because there are many men in the world who don't believe in anyone except their relatives? They believe in it immediately after getting married. If Li Qizhi is just an aide, no matter how loyal and talented he is, Tan Mo may not believe him. He is married to the fourth girl, and when he arrives at the mine, he happens to cover the sky with one hand."

The next day, the Tan family's uncle and the second grandfather visited Jarvis's camp in person, saying that they wanted to see Junshi Lin.The soldiers led them into the tent of the Chinese army.When the two of them sat down, Lin Daiyu asked with a smile, "How is it?"

Uncle Tan smiled bitterly and said, "It's the same as what the military adviser guessed. The rumor that the sixth younger sister was hooked because of her father's lingering ghost was indeed the result of Mr. Li. I discussed this matter with him just now, and he really said that now my father is dead. , our family in Zhangzhou is no longer justifiable, so someone wants to scare us back to our hometown, so as to take advantage of our family in Zhangzhou." Nai tsk said, "It's not bad! Can the military master really be able to pinch and count? I have already admired him so much gone."

Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "My guess is as good as it gets. If he says that, Uncle Tan will definitely not leave."

"That's right." Uncle Tan said, "I want to force my subordinates to leave, but my subordinates are more and more unwilling to leave."

Daiyu then recounted what happened yesterday to the two of them, and they were so angry that they patted the table several times.At the end she said: "Yesterday I ordered the first brother to meet him pretending to be a servant from your mansion. The brother claimed to be sent by Mrs. Tan, and asked him if he had arranged for Miss Seven to meet the night before yesterday. He denied it , and said that he has never met the ladies of the Tan family. He is so cruel. Even if Miss Seven doesn’t let him kill him, at least half of this life will be ruined.”

Uncle Tan said: "What is he doing? Does he have any enmity with us?"

Daiyu shook her head and said, "No. It's about trying to get something from your family. You two only think about the grandfather and uncle other than the fourth girl, and you will understand."

Er Tan looked at each other for a while, and said in unison: "Iron mine!"

Lin Daiyu smiled slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip, said: "Nowadays, the princes of all families are determined to go overseas to fight. Weapons and armor are indispensable. And some princes have no iron mines in the territory under their jurisdiction."

Tan Erye hurriedly asked, "Which one?"

Lin Daiyu said: "I'm not familiar with iron ore mines. The prince only has so much. Please ask experts to check them one by one. I'm sure I can guess a rough idea."

Er Tan looked at each other again, stood up and bowed deeply to Lin Daiyu: "Thanks to Junshi Lin's ingenious calculation, he revealed the face of this thief."

Daiyu hurriedly returned the gift, and said: "He is not bad at calculating. If I were not a woman, I might not be able to see that Miss Seven's demeanor is not like a murderer who killed her sister, but like a daughter who loves her. Seventh Miss knew that she had hurt her. Fame, you may not dare to tell the truth to others - she is willing to tell me because I will leave in a few days. Don't let the women's family know about this, and you can keep Seventh Miss's reputation." You are looking for a new brother-in-law.

Second Master Tan suddenly asked: "After listening to what Seventh Sister said, why did Master Lin guess that Sixth Sister also fell for him?"

Daiyu said: "There was once a dude in Beijing who secretly seduced his second daughter." Nai sighed again, "Besides, if Mr. Dong hadn't been assassinated suddenly, we would have gone back to the island by now."

Uncle Tan clenched his fist and said, "Second brother, people are looking down on us."

Second Master Tan hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "Master Dong is in trouble, and the security is to prevent the disaster for our family. The Tan family will do their best to hunt down the assassin."

Daiyu hurriedly saluted: "Thank you both."

There was a sudden silence in the room.For a while Tan Erye said with regret: "Mr. Li is really a talent."

Daiyu said: "If he is so cruel to the sixth and seventh girls, how can he be expected to be loyal to the lord?"

Uncle Tan clapped the table and said, "I'll kill him!"

Tan Erye hurriedly stopped him and said: "No! Find out his details before we talk. I think he has an extraordinary bearing, and Bao Buqi is the most important person around any prince. We can't afford to offend many princes."

Daiyu suddenly felt tears welling up in her eyes, and pretended to cough a few times.Er Tan, on the other hand, was able to observe words and expressions, hurriedly said a few polite words, and left.

The two of them had just left the big tent, and the guards standing beside him couldn't help but said: "The guy surnamed Li killed their sister, they don't want to take revenge?"

Daiyu said indifferently: "Didn't you also forget the assassin who assassinated his father?"
