Chapter 728 There is a ghost in Li's house
Jiang Fengze frowned, his feeling is usually not wrong!
Xiao Lanyi was surprised, "What, someone is following me?"
He subconsciously looked back.
However, the East Market was bustling with people coming and going.
Although there were many men, women, young and old, and vendors behind him, it was difficult to find suspicious people at the moment.
"This can't be, now that Gu Jun has cleaned up, who can still stare at us." Xiao Lanyi muttered in confusion.
Jiang Fengze narrowed his eyes, only looked around once, and his eyes were fixed on a cloth stall.
Next to the stall, there was a cloth curtain hanging as a partition, which was shaking inexplicably at this time.
But now the sun is bright and there is not a trace of wind, and the shaking of the curtain is obviously a bit dazzling.
Jiang Fengze thought about it, then coughed twice, deliberately loudly, "Well, nothing, it seems that I saw it wrong, then let's go back first."
As he said, he pretended that nothing happened, and turned around and walked away.
But after only a few steps, Jiang Fengze suddenly leaped up, rushed towards the cloth stall, and pressed the figure behind the curtain.
"Ah!"
The next moment, a cry of pain came, with a bit of panic.
Xiao Lanyi widened her eyes, picked up Xiao Nuobao and followed.
There really is someone hiding there!
When the two of them rushed over, Jiang Fengze had already pulled out the person hiding behind the curtain with a cold face.
Xiao Nuobao took a look and immediately recognized that the sneaky girl was Cui'er, the maid of Li's mansion!
She was surprised and widened her eyes, "Why is it you? Aren't you the head maid of Li's mansion, the Cui'er who always followed your young lady? Why are you squatting here?"
The girl who was recognized was even more panicked.
She subconsciously wanted to get up, but her shoulders were grabbed fiercely, and she was so uncomfortable that she could only "crouch" on the ground.
"Reply, reply to the princess, I just wanted to pick some cloth here, I don't know how, I was held down by the uncle like a prisoner..." Cui'er hung her head and stammered.
Xiao Lanyi glanced at the cloth stall, but she was not easy to fool. "You Li Mansion bought cloth, but didn't go to the shop to buy those satins. Instead, you picked some cheap fabrics from this street stall. Can your father wear this?"
Cui'er shook her head hurriedly, "No, it's not bought for the mansion. I picked it for my mother in the countryside. It's good enough that they can use these coarse cloths."
Seeing her smooth over the words, Xiao Nuobao narrowed his eyes slightly, guessing that it was useless to ask further questions.
If this maid really has something wrong.
Right now, the best thing is to let the "ghost" go back to avoid making a fuss.
Originally, Jiang Fengze was still unwilling to let go and planned to interrogate Cui'er, this thief girl.
But Xiao Nuobao suddenly smiled and said, "Oh, it was just a misunderstanding! Third brother, have you been too nervous recently? You are suspicious of everything. Now that everything is fine, let's go buy clothes."
The brother and sister have a tacit understanding. Hearing this, Jiang Fengze immediately understood and let go of Cui'er.
"Okay, let's go, let's continue to spend money. Maybe, third brother is really overthinking."
Jiang Fengze hid the coldness in his eyes, picked up his sister, held her tightly in his arms, and walked forward.
After the three of them walked away, Cui'er touched her chest and walked to the corner of the wall.
"Miss, Boss Ping, they have left, you can come out."
Li Qingping looked pale and poked her head out.
What a close call.
If she and Gu Pingzhi hadn't dodged quickly, they would have been discovered...
Li Qingping had been holding onto the corner of her clothes, leaving deep scratches on her tea-green clothes, showing that she was really scared.
Gu Pingzhi raised his eagle eyes and stared at the distant figure of Xiao Nuobao, "She? She is Mu Yihan's little bastard?"
Li Qingping came back to her senses and spoke with hatred, "Yes, it's her. I don't know why, no matter if they are from the Jiang Mansion or the palace, everyone dotes on her. I don't know what tricks she used."
Gu Pingzhi found it funny.
"She's just a little girl. Killing her is as easy as crushing an ant. Is it worth getting angry about this?"
Thinking of the time when she wanted to harm Xiao Nuobao but ended up losing more than she gained, Li Qingping felt a sense of fear in her heart.
She shook her head quickly, "Don't look at her young age, but she has a lot of tricks."
"If we want to take action against her, we must hit her in one go, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with later."
Having said that, Li Qingping calmed down and revealed her intentions, "By the way, my father has been invited to teach again. In a few days, it will be my father's birthday. He doesn't make many friends, so on his birthday, Jiang Nuobao must be present to celebrate."
"Then, we will find an opportunity to take action in the mansion, tie her up, take her out, and then cut off her hands and feet, and hang her on the city wall for public display. We should also let the world see that Mu Yihan can't even protect his own daughter, so how can he protect the people!"
Li Qingping said, with a vicious look in her eyes. This plan has been played out countless times in her mind.
Gu Pingzhi narrowed his eyes, seeing the hatred and thoughts of the woman in front of him.
It just so happened that they all had the same goal.
Then he could just sit back and reap the benefits, and just listen to Li Qingping's arrangements for the time being.
...
Back at the Jiang Mansion, after returning home, Jiang Fengze tossed and turned in his bed, but he felt more and more uneasy.
He felt something was wrong.
As someone who had been on the battlefield countless times, Jiang Fengze never made mistakes in predicting danger.
So he turned over, put on his boots, and ran towards the palace.
The maids at the Li Mansion were surprised...
Li Hutu suddenly got better...
and there was Li Qingping who refused to show his body...
He couldn't figure out whether there was any relationship between these people, so he wanted to find the national teacher to report it first.
Just in case.
However, what Jiang Fengze didn't expect was that Mu Yihan had been on guard against Li Hutu's family for a long time...
Mu Yihan didn't doubt Li Hutu's character.
However, Mu Yihan heard about Li Qingping's mess and learned that Li Hutu, who had been depressed for many days, suddenly got better.
As the saying goes, there must be something wrong when things are abnormal.
After all, it concerns the safety of the young lady, so he would take it to heart even if there is something wrong.
So after returning to the palace from Jiang's house, Mu Yihan asked Ali to check it out.
At this moment, Ali had just come back from outside.
As soon as he arrived in the Qinzheng Hall and drank a big bowl of tea, he started to report.
"Master Imperial Master, you really guessed it right, you are simply a prophet!"
"There is something wrong with the Li Mansion, guess what I found." Ali got to the point and kept the audience in suspense.
