Chapter 262 The back garden

Li Rizhi was already ready to argue, but he didn't expect that Helan Minzhi would leave and had a very bad temper, which was quite unexpected.

But after thinking about it, he realized that Helan Minzhi must have encountered trouble, and this trouble is related to men and women, so he didn't want to be more troublesome, so he just left.

As a relative, Helan Minzhi could come to Helan Anwen's mansion to take a look and show his care. Even if he had feelings and righteousness, it would be an exaggeration to say that he would not stand up for a group of concubines and servants.

Li Rizhi sat back and said to the servants outside the hall: "Don't be stunned anymore, come in and talk one by one."

The servants lined up and came in to reply. Because it was a public question, everyone's answers were almost the same. Li Rizhi didn't ask any private questions, just a rough question.

It is easy to mess with unified questions and unified answers. In a short while, Li Rizhi finished asking dozens of servants in the mansion.

Li Rizhi didn't want to ask anything through this method, and it was impossible to ask anything. He was just observing everyone's reaction. After observing, he found that the servants in the mansion had no special reactions. They basically acted as servants everywhere, and it didn't matter. They left the Helan family, and He Hong, Green, He Qing and He Zi family!

On the contrary, those concubines didn't have very natural expressions, including the second wife, Juxiang.

Li Rizhi stood up and said, "Where is the head of Helan who was poisoned? Take my official there to see!"

Fu Guibao said: "I want to go and see it too!"

Cheng Zizai said, "Yeah, go together!"

Juxiang thought to herself: "How come these three people give people the feeling that one City God is with two Hum and Ha generals!"

She said, "Then the civilian woman will take three officials to the back garden. Where is my master poisoned? What a poor master!" When she spoke, her eyes turned red, and she took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

Li Ri knew: "Where is your master's son, why is he not in the mansion? But he lets you, a woman, show up in public?"

Juxiang said: "Several young men were originally sent by the master to patrol the roads, and they were not in Chang'an. After the master passed away, he sent someone to deliver letters to them, but none of them came back. I really don't understand that no matter how important business matters, it can be more important than their own parents!"

Li Rizhi said in his heart: "It's right that he dare not come back. His father was killed and his mother was regarded as a scapegoat. This is obviously a move by his enemies. If those young men come back, they will probably suffer. If Empress Wu fails to protect their father, she may not be able to protect them!"

Li Ri knew: "The young man just now is Helan Minzhi. He always comes to the mansion during this period, and you will be welcomed by you?"

Juxiang hurriedly said, "The civilian woman did not expect that the officials would not recognize the Duke. Well, the Duke has been to the mansion several times during this period, and they are all received by the civilian woman."

Li Rizhi smiled and said, "The butler Helanfu is so relaxed. Duke Helan prefers to take care of you!"

This was a clear implicit meaning, but it scared Juxiang. She suddenly became anxious: "No, the Duke of the State has never taken care of the civilian women! Oh, the official is so bad, how can he scare Nunu? Nunu is so brave!"

When she was anxious, she stopped calling herself a civilian woman, but called Nu Nu. The smell of wind and dust came over her face. Without asking, she knew what she used to do!

Li Rizhi nodded at her and said, "I still believe in you, after all, you look so beautiful!"

Fu Guibao continued: "Wipe the sweat quickly, there is too much water!"

Juxiang was stunned and didn't understand what this said. Is this official Li teasing herself? It doesn't look like it. If it were this minor official, it would be possible. Well, this minor official looks okay!

Unable to bear it, Juxiang gave Fu Guibao a charming look, and immediately smiled at him. He knew to Li Ri: "Brother, this case must have nothing to do with Juxiang Nunu, this matter is settled!"

Li Rizhi nodded and said, "It's up to you!" As he said that, he glanced at the concubines following him.

Although Juxiang is coquettish, because of this, Helan Minzhi will not like her, and will never take the risk of running here to find her at this time. If Juxiang wants to mingle with others, she should have very good methods and will not let Helan Anwen know about her. Helan Anwen has so many concubines, but she may not take her to heart.

So this Juxiang should basically be a bystander, so it will have something to do with whom among the concubines. I didn’t notice that Helan Minzhi paid more attention to anyone.

While speaking, he arrived in the garden. Li Rizhi watched everywhere. Cheng Zizai approached him and asked in a low voice: "Senior Brother, I have been watching for a long time. I feel that if someone is suspected, it must be among those concubines. The blonde beard is the most suspected. After all, he is a daughter of a foreign country and is not my race!"

Li Rizhi whispered: "Helan Anwen's death is only two situations. Either the person who opposes Empress Wu killed him, he must send someone to harm him. The sent people must be close to him. Those concubines are very suspicious, or those who are not opposing Empress Wu killed him. Then this is easy to judge. Whoever dances the most happily will be the most suspicious!"

"Helan Minzhi?"

Li Ri knew: "Let's doubt him for now, not necessarily!"

Li Rizhi turned his head and looked at the blonde beard. Seeing her standing at the moon gate in the garden, she looked around but did not come in. She happened to see Li Rizhi looking at her. She was shocked and panicked like a little rabbit, as if she wanted to escape but didn't dare to escape.

After Fu Guibao finished talking to Juxiang, he talked to other concubines, but the concubines were hiding from him, and no one wanted to chat with him. Fu Guibao walked to Li Rizhi's face with a look of disappointment.

Fu Guibao whispered: "Brother, among these concubines, the most suspected blond beard is the blonde girl. I don't know whether she is pretending or real. Anyway, I can't explain it clearly, and I still dodge it. Other concubines are not like her."

Li Rizhi nodded slightly and said, "I know it in my heart."

He waved to Juxiang not far away and said, "Where is the poison in the head of Helan? Please point me to see!"

Helan Anwen's house is big and the garden is big. Not only does it have a small pond, but it also has many woods. There is also a large area of ​​grape trellis near the wall on one side of the yard. I guess Helan Anwen likes to eat grapes very much!

Ju Xiang pointed to the grape trellis by the wall and said, "My master is the dinner under the grape trellis, and then he was poisoned to death. The master likes to sit there and think about things, and often eat and drink there."

When Li Rizhi looked over the grape trellis, he saw that the rack was full of greenery. The rack was built into a huge pergola, and a corridor was set up around it. This garden is a very unique view. There is a set of low couches under the pergola, and there is a small table on it. When the weather is good, the owner can enjoy the cool and drink tea here, or lie on the couch for a nap. It is a great enjoyment. No wonder Helan Anwen likes this place.
