There were only three people in the room, Geng Xingshuang, Jin Bao and Zhan Pei, and even Hua Lian didn't know about it.
"I was planning to come over yesterday to report to the girl, but then I saw that the uncle's residence seemed to be in chaos. Thinking that Geng Cheng was so seriously injured, the girl should be busy visiting the doctor, so I came here today. I hope the girl can forgive me. "
Geng Xingshuang waved her hand to show that she understood, "Tell me what happened on the night of Duanyang and how Uncle Er was injured like that."
Zhan Pei cupped his hands and recounted what he saw, heard and did on that night of Duanyang, word for word.
"Please forgive me, girl. When we were about to take action, we found that Geng Cheng's right leg had been broken. But we all went there and couldn't return empty-handed, so we accidentally broke a pair of his hamstrings. And the right hand tendon, I deliberately left the left hand, so if you practice more, you can still eat and change clothes."
After Zhan Pei finished speaking, she waited for Geng Xingshuang to give the order. After all, they were doing something without authorization. Before coming, she was prepared to bear it all. After all, she was the one who did it, but Wu Juan and Zhu Jian repeatedly told them that if If she dared to carry it alone, she would break off the relationship with her, so she did not pick them both out.
The girl should punish them. As long as they don't drive them away, they will accept all other punishments.
"Do you see who those two people are in front of you?"
Zhan Pei hesitated for a moment and said: "Those two people were wearing black shorts, straw hats and face scarves. They couldn't even see their eyes or foreheads, but... judging from their body shapes and walking postures, one of them looked a bit like Third Master."
"What?"
Geng Xingshuang was shocked and stood up suddenly, "Are you sure?"
Zhan Pei shook his head, "I'm not sure, but there are some similarities. Wu Juan and Zhu Jian didn't see any signs at all, so I'm not sure."
Geng Xingshuang was shocked by Zhan Pei's guess. If even Zhan Pei could see that he looked a bit like his third uncle, how could Yao Gang, who was much more familiar with his third uncle than Zhan Pei, not see it.
But in Yinghe Courtyard, when Yao Gang was questioned by his uncle and his wife, he did not mention anything about his third uncle. Could it be that Zhan Pei was really mistaken.
If one of them is the third uncle, then the other person... the answer is almost obvious.
Geng Xingshuang thought about the fact that her father and third uncle were often absent from the house during the recent period, and last night, they didn't return home all night. Was it really that something happened at Mishan Villa?
Geng Xingshuang's mind was a little confused. Seeing that Zhan Pei was still waiting for him, he thought for a moment and said, "You broke my second uncle's hamstrings and hand tendons on your own initiative. Please tell me why."
"Girl, the day before the Dragon Boat Festival, we performed a play in front of the trusted servant next to Mr. Liu. He didn't see us, but could hear our voices. The bamboo sword imitated Zhang Lai beside the second master. , told people that the second master did not like the character of the second young master Liu at all. He was willing to give his daughter to Liu Shouyi as a concubine just because the fifth girl was a concubine that he did not like. If she was a legitimate daughter, let alone a legitimate daughter, Concubine, the second master is not willing to be his wife, just because Liu Shouyi has a father who is a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, otherwise the second master would not be friends with a despicable person like him.
On the night of Dragon Boat Festival, although Liu Shou had a bad attitude toward the second master, he did not refuse the second master's overtures. We thought that even if the second master Liu refused, as long as the second master wanted to be promoted, he could still think of other ways. The fifth girl is not safe, and you and the seventh girl are not safe either. A broken leg can grow back, so just... let it go once and for all. "
Geng Xingshuang really asked them to find a way to sow discord between Second Master Liu and Geng Cheng. It would be best if Second Master Liu could completely turn against Geng Cheng.
But now it seems that her thinking is too simple and her methods are too immature.
"Girl, we didn't do this..."
Geng Xingshuang waved his hand, "I understand what you are thinking. You are thinking that he is my second uncle after all. Even if you tell me your thoughts, I can't directly order you to use such cruel methods on him, so I will kill him first and then tell you." .”
Zhan Pei lowered his head, that's what they thought. Another thing was that they felt that the girl was only a fourteen-year-old girl after all. Although she was not like an ordinary noble girl, the adopted girl could only see one side of the high-level compound. Heaven and Earth, but even if Geng Cheng was not her second uncle, she would definitely not be able to handle such a thing as breaking off her hamstrings and hand tendons.
"I understand what you mean, because Brother Yang Liu has already paid your wages. I was originally going to give you another wage. But this time, after all, you did it without permission, so the additional wages for this month will not be paid. ”
Is this their punishment?
Until he left the uncle's house, Zhan Pei couldn't believe that the girl let them go so easily. The additional salary for one month was hardly considered a punishment.
"It seems that what we did is very suitable for the girl!" Zhu Jian shook his head and said.
"Who was against it in the first place?" Wu Juan curled her lips.
"Okay, the two heroines are still more courageous and able to make decisions on the spot than the younger ones."
Zhu Jian immediately begged for mercy.
"Next, we need to pay more attention to the Liu family and the government. Also, I told the girl my suspicions about the two people who took action before us. If it is really the eldest master and the third master, we should also pay more attention to it. , lest we don’t reveal the secret here and they leak it there.”
Zhanpei wanted to think things through as much as possible so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
"By the way, one more thing. Have you painted the second master's neck with rouge?"
Seeing the two men shaking their heads, Zhan Pei frowned and repeated what Geng Xingshuang told her in the uncle's house, about the scene before Geng Cheng and the others returned to the uncle's house.
"According to what the girl said, before the coachman woke up, the carriage had already arrived at the place where the second master and the others were unconscious, and the second master, Yao Gang, and Zhang Lai were all dragged along..."
"Has anyone else been there after us?" Wu Juan frowned.
They had a good day to choose from, and they just bumped into the eldest master and the third master. She thought the three of them were the oriole behind, could there be an eagle behind?
This feels so bad.
"No, the second master went to Xunxiang Tower yesterday afternoon. Who knows if Rouge got on it at that time. As for the carriage and the tow truck, it was all said by the coachman and Yao Gang. The truth or falsehood is not yet certain. Maybe it was them. Therefore, we are raising suspicions. As for what the purpose is, we still need to pay more attention to the government. They have not reported it to the government, but my uncle has secretly asked someone to investigate, and maybe the government will be alerted. We must be extremely careful in our actions recently. "
"Zhu Jian is right. The girl said that we shouldn't take the initiative to do anything recently. We just need to inquire about the news first."
Wu Juan asked: "Then do we still scare Liu Shouyi?"
Zhan Pei looked at her and said, "I've already reported this to the girl. The girl said it's just what she has already done, so I'll stop for the time being."
"Thankfully we took action last night, otherwise we would have no chance."
Last night, Zhan Pei, who was the most skilled in martial arts, used light kung fu to pass the Liu family's carriage after Mr. Liu was drunk. He left a message in Mr. Liu's ear: "This time it's Geng Cheng, and the next one is you." .
Before he finished speaking, the person had disappeared like a ghost.
However, being able to do this was not only due to Zhan Pei's strong martial arts, but also because few of the servants brought out by Mr. Liu were capable of fighting. Two of the guards with martial arts skills were pulled by Mr. Liu. We drank together and got drunk.
However, when Zhan Pei left, Mr. Liu was frightened and woke up, but the two guards were still walking beside the carriage in a daze.
Although it was not yet curfew time, the alley the Liu family's carriage took was relatively remote, so no one noticed it at all.
Both Zhu Jian and Wu Juan thought this was more fun, but now that the girl wouldn't let them do it, they had to stop.
