Jiang Bai focused his attention on the speaker, who was Mr. Huang's maid Ling'er.
It said displeasedly: "I'm talking to Huang Zhen, why do you, a servant, interrupt me?"
"You!" Ling'er has never been said like this. Who in the entire Huang family doesn't know that she has a close relationship with Mr. Huang, and who is not polite?
Impulsively, she wanted to rush forward to argue with Jiang Bai, but was held back by Mr. Huang.
At the same time, the activities in Mr. Huang's house attracted more and more busy people to watch, and many people whispered about it in private.
"Didn't Jiang Bai and Huang Zhen have a good relationship before? Why did they have a quarrel?"
"You just came here, don't you know? This Jiang Bai said that he was assassinated by Huang Qiu, and then killed the people, and now he comes to question Huang Zhen."
"Tsk tsk, it's a pity. I've seen Huang Qiu before, and he looks like a water spirit. Could it be that Jiang Bai got interested and played with people before killing them?"
"Look at your vulgar thinking. Jiang Bai is a high-level monster. Do you really want Huang Qiu to crawl into bed unhappy?"
Those who said these words were all crafty cultivators, many of whom had high status in the Huang family. The servants of the Huang family did not have the guts to discuss their master's affairs.
For those who live a long life, watching the excitement is a good way to kill time.
Xiao Bai, who followed Jiang Bai, opened his mouth and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he still didn't say anything.
Based on her many years of experience in the Huang family, she did not believe that Mr. Huang was such a duplicitous person. There must be a misunderstanding.
But after all, she is just a servant, so what qualifications do she have to say these things?
Since ancient times, it has been a taboo for servants to question their masters, and it is an act of transgression.
If it were Huang Yilai, he would probably beat someone to death.
Hearing the discussions of people around him, including many obscene remarks, even Huang Zhen could hardly bear it.
But he still took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Jiang, there must be some misunderstanding here."
Mr. Huang expressed his suspicion: "Could there be a thief who killed Qiu'er and then impersonated her to assassinate Mr. Jiang? Don't worry, Mr. Jiang, give me some time and I will get to the bottom of it."
He believed that Jiang Bai was not the kind of person who killed innocent people indiscriminately, and that there was nothing in Huang Qiu that Jiang Bai could covet.
Huang Qiu was one of the first group of old people to follow Mr. Huang. He always trusted Huang Qiu and entrusted Huang Qiu to handle many important matters.
Five days ago, Huang Qiu said that he wanted to go out for a walk, but he was worried about getting into trouble because he was unfamiliar with life outside.
Mr. Huang thought for a while and handed her his token. After all, few people in Dongyuan Kingdom dared to give face to the Huang family.
I didn't expect that he would cause such a big trouble just by doing this.
If Jiang Bai doesn't miss his old feelings and goes to complain to the head of the family, Huang Zhen will definitely be in trouble.
Jiang Bai is a disciple of the Red Dragon King and a distinguished guest of the Huang family.
It was assassinated by the Huang family. If he didn't give an explanation, what would happen if King Scarlet Dragon came to visit him personally?
However, Jiang Bai did not want to give Mr. Huang a chance.
I saw it throwing out another thing and saying: "There is no need to check. Do you know this person?"
"Ah! It's Sister Qiu!"
A head rolled on the ground towards Mr. Huang, frightening the originally aggressive Ling'er to hide behind Mr. Huang.
She was so well protected by Mr. Huang that she had never seen such a scene.
The good friends who were once close to each other now have only their heads left.
Seeing Huang Qiu's head, Mr. Huang was completely speechless this time.
Although the trick cultivator also has the ability to disguise himself, it is unheard of for him to be able to maintain his appearance after death.
Even though his face was blurred after being burned, Mr. Huang still recognized that this was Huang Qiu.
Jiang Bai ignored Mr. Huang, got on the sedan chair directly, and asked his servants to carry the sedan chair back to Jiang Mansion.
When he was about to leave, Jiang Bai's voice came from the sedan: "For the sake of our previous friendship, I will not care about this matter with you, and you should not come to me again in the future."
...
Huang Yi's Mansion.
"Miss, good news!"
Huang Yi's personal maid ran to Huang Yi excitedly and told her everything that had just happened in Mr. Huang's mansion.
"Hahaha!" Huang Yi laughed after hearing this, and kept slapping the armrest with her right hand, showing her inner happiness.
Huang Yi said proudly: "I thought the friendship between the two of them was so powerful, but I didn't expect it to be so vulnerable."
The maid also echoed: "Yes, no matter how good the relationship is, it can't compare to the intelligence of the young lady, but..."
She seemed to have doubts in her heart, but she didn't dare to ask directly.
Obviously Jiang Bai's assassination was planned by Huang Yi, and this maid was also an insider.
Huang Yi waved his hands proudly and said, "Just ask, I'm in a good mood today."
"Yes, Miss, you deliberately let Huang Qiu carry Huang Zhen's token. Isn't it too obvious? How can any assassin carry his master's token on himself?"
Upon hearing the maid's question, Huang Yi first played with his flowing hair with his fingers, and then explained.
"You don't understand this. My purpose is not to make Jiang Bai think that my brother is the murderer, but to make Jiang Bai doubt him."
Just listen to Huang Yi slowly say: "So Jiang Bai came from Nanshan, what kind of demons and ghosts has he not seen on his way to Dongyuan Kingdom? If he really wanted to believe in people, he wouldn't be alive now."
"This Jiang Bai and my brother became friends just because they have similar interests, but I know that Jiang Bai has never trusted my brother in his heart."
"Seeing the token is like seeing a person. My brother didn't say that his token was stolen before. If he took it out, Jiang Bai would definitely doubt him."
"And for a demon like Jiang Bai, a little suspicion is enough. Even if it doesn't think it was my brother who planned it, it will definitely become alienated. There's no harm in it anyway."
Huang Yi stopped when he said this, and the maid also said with a look of realization: "So, Miss, you asked Huang Qiu to show signs that everything was your instigation, completely remove himself, and become the target of being framed."
"After that, you can try to win over Jiang Bai again, and Jiang Bai will also consider joining the lady in order to avoid being attacked again."
"Haha, not bad." Huang Yi smiled and stretched out his hand to touch the maid's head.
The maid also accepted it very obediently, with an expression on her face like a kitten being stroked.
...
Three days later, Jiang Mansion.
Jiang Bai finished his day's practice, glanced at Xiaobai and Xiaoqing standing aside and asked, "What's wrong with you two? You've been so low on energy lately."
Xiaobai wanted to say something, but didn't say anything.
In the end, Xiao Qing, who had a relatively simple temper, gritted his teeth and said: "Sir, I think you have misunderstood Mr. Huang. Mr. Huang is not such a person."
Although Mr. Huang is not doing his job properly in the eyes of the crafty cultivators, he is really good in the eyes of servants like them. I don’t know how many servants want to be assigned to Mr. Huang.
Not only is he gentle with others, even if his servants make mistakes, as long as they are not intentional, he will not scold them, but will show some concern.
For servants like them who are not treated as human beings, they are simply great benefactors.
Xiaobai is mature and thinks a lot but dare not say anything.
But Xiaoqing is still young, and she will feel uncomfortable if she keeps things in her heart that she cannot see.
