Then Li Da smiled stiffly at the butler and said tremblingly:

"It failed. Five of the six people in the ambush died. Zhao Xiong returned to the Zhao Mansion intact. I went up and stayed until the middle of the night, but he never came out again, so I rushed back to report the news!"

The chief steward Gao Qiqian said: "Oh, this Li Hai has frightened the snake. It seems that it is impossible to kill Zhao Xiongba with his hands. Let's let them live for a few more days!"

Li Da is very afraid of Gao Qiqian, the great steward from Wenxiang Sect.

He said cautiously: "I asked Li Er to kill the escaped king rat wolf, butler, has my brother come back to report?"

The chief steward got up and dived, snorted and said: "Your brother Li Er is also a loser. He came back injured and reported that he stabbed the king rat in the stomach, and the king rat jumped into the Grand Canal and sank.

In such a cold weather, your brother kept watch for half an hour, but the king rat didn't show his head. It seems that he has no way to survive.

I see that your brother is seriously injured, so I told him to rest!"

Li Da Wenyan finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that his brother had killed the King Rat Wolf.

Gao Qiqian, the great butler hiding in the darkness, continued to preach:

"It seems that Li Hai made this matter a big deal. The Zhao family is still very powerful in Yixian County, and they will definitely get to the bottom of it.

After all, Li Hai is a foreigner, and he can't make any big waves by going against the Zhao family."

The chief steward Gao Qiqian sighed and said: "I have raised enough money in the past few years. If this continues, sooner or later there will be flaws. If someone comes to investigate, find someone to confess Li Hai!

If no one comes to check, before the Grand Canal is closed, you notify the second head of Baishui Village and work together to burn down the Li Mansion!"

At this time, Li Dayi, who was kneeling on the ground, heard that the Li Mansion was going to be burned down. He felt his head throbbing a few times and forced himself to calm down. After thinking about it, he replied tactfully:

"Baishui Village is now led by Tian Sanniang, the third leader. However, the strength of Baishui Village has been seriously damaged in the past three years. They can't even deal with Blackwater Village.

This time in Baishui Village, two more masters were killed in the assassination of Zhao Xiong, and his strength became even weaker.

The leader of Heishui Village, Xie Liang, came to me yesterday and wanted to join our Wenxiang Sect. This is their roster in Heishui Village!"

After speaking, he took out a book from his arms, raised his hands respectfully above his head, and felt that with a light touch on his hands, the roster flew into the hands of the butler.

The miraculous technique scared Li Da so much that he didn't dare to say anything. Time passed by minute by second. It was freezing cold outside, and suddenly he felt very hot inside the room.

He raised his head and secretly looked at the desk. In the middle of the desk was a large dolomitic copper brazier filled with inch-long silver charcoal.

There was only an eleven or twelve-year-old maid kneeling beside the desk, holding her breath and squeezing his feet.

Then he fiddled with the charcoal fire, and the fire was burning brightly.

The brazier and the butler were close at hand, and he was actually sitting behind the desk as if nothing had happened, and he didn't mind the heat.

The darkness and the arm-thick candles in the room glowed up and down, forming a warm red color.

Gao Qiqian was silent after reading the roster. After a while, he picked up the roster and looked at it again, putting his right hand on the table.

The fingers kept tapping "tick-tick-tick-tick", as if they were thinking about something.

After another moment of silence, the butler Gao Qiqian made a voice:

"Very good, you will come with me to see Li Hai later. He will definitely ask you about the specific situation. You said that Zhao Xiong was injured about what happened last night, but he has returned to the Zhao Mansion and is staying behind closed doors!"

"Ah, Zhao Xiongba is not injured!" Li Da raised his head and looked at the butler in surprise.

"Just say her arm is injured. I will have my own plan then. Do you understand me?"

"Listen...I understand!"

Li Da stammered in reply.

The chief steward was very dissatisfied with Li Da's answer, but after all, he was teaching people to lie to get things done, so he softened his tone and said: "You two brothers and I are both members of the church. Of course, the leader of your mother's sick group will pray for her."

Of!"

Li Da was overjoyed when he heard that, and said quickly: "The leader of the gang, Hong Fu Qitian, I swear to join the church on behalf of Li Er and our two brothers!"

Gao Qiqian was very satisfied with his attitude and continued: "Remember, someone must be watching at the door of Zhao's house these two days. If something urgent happens, you know what to do!

Okay, please step back!"

Li Da agreed, got up and walked out of the study backwards. His body was soaked with sweat, and he shivered when the cold wind blew.

He took out a snow-white silk handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the sweat from his forehead carelessly, and walked carefully to the door before taking a deep breath.

He smelled the silk handkerchief again, and the fragrance was fragrant. This was a token of love given to him by Wanhualou Qing'er.

Thinking of Qing'er, Li Da was intoxicated again, but a trip to Wanhua Tower would cost several taels of silver.

Since the assassination failed, the hundred taels of silver that Li Hai gave to Wang Rat Wolf was still on Wang Rat Wolf's body. I wonder if Li Er snatched it back. He still had to ask Li Er.

So I walked to the front yard and the servant's room.

At this time, the chief steward stood up and leaned on his chair, closing his eyes and meditating. He had been lurking in Li Hai's house for three years on the orders of the master of Muxiang Hall.

Taking advantage of the convenience of Li Hai managing the gate of the canal, he did simplistic business within the church to provide funds for the Wenxiang Sect to launch riots in the future.

But Gao Qiqian, the chief steward, had other ideas. He had an affair with Li Hai's wife three years ago. After becoming a steward, he secretly wanted to obtain all of Li Hai's wealth.

Li Hai now has three sons. The eldest son was born to Li Hai's personal maid. He has no status in the government and cannot inherit. Now he has returned to his hometown in Shanxi.

The second son, Li Chao, is the legitimate son of his deceased first wife, and together with Zhao Xiong, they are known as the two tyrants on the canal.

The third son is now more than three years old and is born to this wife. He is also considered the legitimate son, but the father of this legitimate son is not Li Hai, but him.

With the failure of this assassination, Le Hai must have died down.

He wants to encourage Li Hai's second son, Li Chao, to go to Zhao's house to prepare for trouble. If the second son kills Zhao Xiong, then his great revenge will be avenged.

If the second young master cannot kill Zhao Xiong, and Zhao Xiong is killed by the second young master, it will be a lot of fun, as long as he silently adds fuel to the fire.

Then the Zhao Mansion and the Li Mansion are incompatible, and Li Hai will be doomed in the end.

That way my son can inherit the Li family business.

Thinking of this great butler, he sneered like a night owl.

Thinking of this, the tall butler Gao Qiqian's pale face immediately became excited, but when he looked down at himself, he immediately trembled.

I remembered how the former Zhao Xiongba crippled me, so now I have become a eunuch, which is hateful.
