Under the leadership of the general manager, Liu Yidou came to the cabinet immediately.
At this time, the victim's body has not yet been disposed of.
As soon as Liu Yidou crossed the threshold, he smelled a strong smell of blood.
Liu Yidou stepped forward, squatted down, and checked every part of his body.
Then, when he stood up, Liu Yidou's brows were already furrowed.
According to Liu Yidou's judgment, the body showed no signs of being moved.
And this time, the signs of death on the body were particularly obvious.
There was a small wound on the deceased's chest. In Liu Yidou's opinion, someone should have struck a fatal blow with a long sword, breaking the father-in-law's heart.
Before thinking of the scene left by Li Shishi when he killed someone.
Liu Yidou immediately judged that this matter was probably not done by Li Shishi!
In the past, when Li Shishi committed murder, in order to avoid being exposed, he would often use various conditions to lure the victim outside the Tongque Terrace.
With Master Li's cautious character, it stands to reason that he would never kill anyone in Tongque Terrace.
In this case, could it be said that the killer is someone else?
"Eunuch Huang, do you see anything?"
Facing the general manager's inquiry, Liu Yidou shook his head lightly.
However, regarding the matter of the killer, Liu Yidou had a different opinion: "Don't make any noise about this matter for the time being. Remember, except for the manager, no one must know about it!"
The deceased had just won the contest and was about to be promoted to steward, but in the end he suffered such bad luck.
If such news spreads, it will definitely cause a lot of panic, and the confidence that Liu Yidou finally aroused through the martial arts competition will definitely disappear as this matter spreads.
"Send the body to my attic and I will examine it carefully when I get back."
"In addition, from now on, I will give you a task... Send someone to keep an eye on the other managers. No one can be let go, by the way, except Eunuch Li!"
After hearing Liu Yidou's arrangement, the manager couldn't help but feel curious.
"Eunuch Huang, why are Eunuch Li excluded?"
"Eunuch Li and I have been together this morning. Before you came to find me, I had just returned. Eunuch Li didn't have time to kill people at all. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
The biggest reason why Liu Yidou told the other party not to investigate Li Shishi was that he was afraid that Li Shishi would reveal his flaws at such a juncture.
Guessing Li Shishi's safety, Liu Yidou casually made up a reason.
Nowadays, Liu Yidou's power in the cabinet is unparalleled. When the manager heard this statement, he naturally nodded and agreed with Liu Yidou's meaning.
In an instant, the manager left immediately and started arranging the matter.
Liu Yidou looked back at the corpse behind him, and his brows became tangled.
"Although Master Li did not do this, with his strength, he may not have noticed anything."
"I originally thought about confronting him, but now it seems that confrontation is not necessary, but I'm afraid it's inevitable to ask for advice!"
Thinking of the strong strength Li Shishi had shown before, Liu Yidou only hoped to find an answer in him.
At that moment, Liu Yidou left the murder scene and walked straight towards the courtyard where Li Shishi was.
Unexpectedly, when Liu Yidou came to the courtyard, Master Li was already waiting in the courtyard, as if he already knew everything.
"You came to me because of the body today, right?"
Seeing Liu Yidou appear, Li Shishi went straight to the point. After hearing this, Liu Yidou shook his head lightly, and then, he did not hide his thoughts.
"Mother, in fact, I did doubt you at the beginning, but after seeing the crime scene, I taught you to rule it out immediately. With your character, you will never take such a risk, so I think this matter may It was done by someone else!”
"Then who do you think is most likely to do this?"
"I suspect that it is very likely that other father-in-laws are secretly fighting for power. I just don't know. Does Li Niangniang know more?"
At the end of his speech, Liu Yidou directly put the question on Li Shishi.
Faced with Liu Yidou's statement, Li Shishi smiled faintly.
"Liu Yidou, I suddenly realized that you are quite smart. After not seeing each other for a few days, you actually learned to follow the clues... If you really want to ask me for advice, you should at least say a few nice words, right?"
"Don't think I'm one of those idiots who can be fooled by you with just a few words!"
Seeing that his little thoughts were revealed, Liu Yidou touched his nose angrily.
However, through this statement, Liu Yidou also heard another meaning.
It is very possible that Master Li in front of him really knows something.
Otherwise, I would definitely not go any further on this topic.
"Empress, let's do this. If you can help me this time, how about I give you a surprise another day?"
Thinking of his previous arrangements, Liu Yidou spoke in a mysterious tone at this moment. Seeing Liu Yidou being so showy, Li Shishi smiled and nodded.
"One more time, for the sake of saving that girl Daji, I might as well help you this time!"
"To be honest, you would never guess the identity of the person who did it... Last night, your adoptive father secretly left prison without anyone knowing."
"That corpse was the work of your adoptive father. Can you understand my explanation?"
"But...why did he do this?" When he heard that Cao Ying was clearly behind the arrangement of the father-in-law's death, Liu Yidou frowned slightly, and a question arose in his mind.
In his opinion, Cao Ying is now obsessed with cultivation, so how can he still care about the general situation of Tongque Terrace?
You know, even the management of the Tongquetai Cabinet was handed over to Liu Yidou by Cao Ying.
Based on the other party's previous performance, it is obvious that he does not seem to be such a leisurely person.
More importantly, why did Cao Ying secretly kill a father-in-law?
"Boy, don't you understand yet?"
"Please ask your Majesty to clear up the confusion!"
"In my opinion, that old boy Cao Ying may not have 100% trust in you. I'm afraid your previous methods of deceiving him have been exposed by him long ago. It was because of suspicion that Cao Ying attacked that father-in-law!"
"To be honest, before the deaths in the cabinet, many members of the public in the outer cabinet were brutally murdered, and all of this was inseparable from Cao Ying's arrangements. I suspect that he thought there was a black hand hidden in the Tongque Tower, so he took action secretly. , murdering the object of his suspicion."
Li Shishi was shocked at this moment, and what he said made Liu Yidou stunned on the spot.
Thinking of Cao Ying's attitude towards him before, Liu Yidou still found it difficult to accept this statement.
At the same time, Liu Yidou felt a little scared in his heart.
If what Li Shishi said is true, once Cao Ying doubts himself, will he attack his adopted son?
