Liang Zhi dragged Cheng Chili to a place where no one was, and then asked his servants to guard the entrances and exits on all sides. Then he put Cheng Chili down and said, "What were you yelling about just now?"
Cheng Zhili clapped his hands on his thighs: "Tell me quickly, what's going on with Miss Fu?!"
"What do you think is going on?" Liang Zhi crossed his arms.
Cheng Zhili was stunned for a moment and said, "Boss, she's not dead, right? She wasn't the one who died in the fire, right?"
"Smart!" Liang Zhi slapped him hard on the shoulder, "Everyone says you are a fool, but I never believe it! I knew I was right!"
Cheng Zhili scratched his head: "Then what happened back then? Who died?"
"It was a strange girl who was killed. There was a big conspiracy involved."
Cheng Chili's eyes immediately widened: "What conspiracy?! Could it be that someone deliberately set that fire?"
"That's right!" Liang Zhi took his hand back, "When everyone thought the fire was an accident, it was actually someone's deliberate plan! His purpose was to kill my little aunt!"
"What the fuck!" Cheng Zhili clenched his fists and cursed angrily, "Who is that person?! I'm going to chop him up right now! Skin him and make a banner on my aunt's grave!"
"Don't get excited yet. The murderer hasn't shown up yet, but my aunt may have clues. I'll have to ask her later."
This idiot has a temper like a firecracker, and Liang Zhi doesn't want to reveal too much to him at once, lest he can't hold back and reveal his flaws.
But just these things made Cheng Chili's blood boil! "Then what happened to my little aunt? Where has she been in the past few years?"
Liang Zhi hugged his chest again: "The fire was originally aimed at my little aunt, but my little aunt noticed it in advance and escaped from the fire at the critical moment and survived the disaster.
"It's just that the murderer was so vicious that he poured down lamp oil all over the room, and the flames engulfed my little aunt all over.
"So even though she escaped, she was still seriously injured, her face and body were ruined, and she almost died on the roadside!"
"Then what happened next?!" Cheng Zhili was so worried that his heart rose to his throat, "Who saved her?!"
Liang Zhi looked at him: "You should have heard of Miss Fu's grandfather, right?"
"I know, Mr. Ning was an imperial merchant from the previous dynasty, and he was also a very ambitious righteous man!" Speaking of this mileage, he hit his palm with a salute, "Could it be Mr. Ning who saved my little aunt, right?!"
"You guessed it right!" Liang Zhi's eyes flashed, "Mr. Ning is very heroic, he has friends all over the world, and knows many strange people!
"It happened that the original Miss Fu had poor health and everyone said she couldn't survive. After Mr. Ning rescued my little aunt, he found a doctor he knew and changed her appearance into Miss Fu. Look!
“So he has been recuperating outside the capital these years.
"No one knows about this except Mrs. Ning. A few days ago, Miss Fu passed away at the end of her life span. Our little aunt took her place in the Fu family and became Mrs. Ning's daughter."
Cheng Chili was dumbfounded. He was half stunned and half glad, and he was struggling and wallowing in turns. "No wonder! When I saw Miss Fu for the first time, I thought she didn't look like a lady from a civil servant's family!...It turns out it's really her!...Then why did he have to wait until six years to see us?"
Liang Zhi clicked his tongue: "I just said you were smart, why did you suddenly become stupid again? If there are two Miss Fu who look exactly the same in the capital, what will happen? Of course, one must disappear before the other can appear!"
"Besides, the murderer is very powerful. Even the people in Dali Temple didn't find any suspicion in the fire. This shows how powerful his methods are! Of course she has to lie dormant!"
Cheng Zhili was persuaded, but he added: "But my aunt was never this thin before! Can she also change her figure by changing her appearance?"
"Thanks to the fact that you have been on the battlefield for so many years, you have never seen a broken bone reattached?" Liang Zhi looked at him, "She was burning to death at the time, and she was suffering from pain that we could not imagine. What you saw Everything that is abnormal is the witness of my little aunt gritting her teeth and getting through it! As one of her right-hand men, not only do you not feel sorry for her, you even question her! Don't you feel ashamed?!"
After saying this, Cheng Chili felt so guilty that he almost cried!
"I'm going to kowtow to my little aunt! I'm sorry for her!"
"Forget it if you kowtow!" Liang Zhi said, "I only told you about this, and no one else, including Lao Wu!
"Don't say anything! If you still recognize her as the boss in your heart, then from now on, shut your mouth and open your eyes!"
"Then I can't go find her?"
"Of course you can find her. After today, you can find another opportunity to see her. For now, just pretend that there is no such thing!"
Cheng Zhili clenched his fists and gritted his teeth until the veins on his forehead popped out: "When she comes out of the house, I will follow her! I must know who the murderer is, and I must help her get revenge! I must repay what she did to me back then. So good, he has done so many tanks for me!
"I can't wait to see her right now. No, even if I can't kowtow, I still have to offer her a cup of tea!
Liang Zhi patted his shoulder again: "My little aunt will be very pleased to know that you are protecting her like this. - Let's go!"
Halfway through, he warned again: "That guy Lao Wu has not liked my little aunt since he was a child. To avoid causing trouble, remember to be strict with your mouth in front of him..."
…
Pei Zhan asked the servants who led the way and came to Yangxinzhai where Ning Jia was.
When he saw that the yard was empty except for the tea and snacks that had been placed on the desk earlier, he asked, "Where are General Liang and your second master?"
The servant bowed and said, "Little General Liang has been waiting for the second master for a long time, so he went out to look for him."
Pei Zhan glanced at him and asked, "What about Mr. Ning?"
"Mr. Ning is in the house. Before he left, General Liang found a lot of books to relieve his boredom. Now Mr. Ning is reading books in the house."
Pei Zhan glanced at the half-open door and walked over.
There were several boxes of books piled up in the room, and an undersized young man in white clothes was standing sideways in front of the window holding a book, reading through it in the skylight.
There are several open books on the desk in front of him. They all seem to be of interest to him and have bookmarks on them.
Pei Zhanqing coughed, but the young man didn't respond.
When he coughed again, the other person looked up blankly, and then looked over subconsciously.
His eyes paused on Pei Zhan. He paused, immediately put down the book, stepped back half a step, cupped his hands and bowed deeply.
"Xiaosheng Ning Jia, I'm sorry."
Pei Zhan walked in and picked up the book he put down and read: "Do you understand Shen Shiyao and Shen Xueshi's book?"
