The expert he had worked so hard to find turned out to be a fool. Li Shui felt very embarrassed.

Li Xin patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, Brother Huai, you are not a shameless person. Just laugh and let it pass."

Li Shui's mood became even worse.

Chunyu Yue said with a smile: "Master Huai, are you still looking for that non-existent master?"

Li Shui gritted his teeth and said, "Look, as long as Master Chunyu allows me, I will interrogate everyone in the house."

Chunyu Yue chuckled and said: "If I don't agree, you will find an excuse to come to my house to cause trouble. That's all. If you want to cross-examine, then do it."

So everyone was gathered in the courtyard, and Li Shui asked them one by one.

From the beginning, his direction was wrong. He and Li Xin were looking for a man, a young man, a young and smart man. They never thought that it would be a woman who could cause such harm to the room.

.

In the end, of course, nothing was found. In the end, Li Shui was exhausted and waved his hand to let people disperse.

Chunyu Yue asked proudly: "How?"

Li Shui said calmly: "An expert is an expert. The dragon can see its head but not its tail. It is quite hidden. But it doesn't matter. Sooner or later, the fox's tail will be exposed."

Later, Li Shui stood in the middle of the courtyard and said loudly: "Huai has no intention of harming Mr. Huai. He only hopes to meet Mr. and have a long talk. We can confirm each other's knowledge and create great achievements together."

No one paid any attention to him.

Li Shui sighed and muttered: "This expert is quite capable, but he is too timid."

The Qin soldiers found nothing in Chunyu Yue's mansion and had already left. After all, the emperor only gave them ten days to search other places.

However, Li Xin and Li Shui did not leave. They stayed in Chunyu Yue's mansion, eating and drinking.

An hour later, Li Shui stood up and said, "I'm going to make it easier." Then he walked outside.

Chunyu Yue winked at a servant, who followed him from a distance. He was relieved when he saw that Li Shui had actually entered the toilet.

As for Zhu'er, she was also a little excited. This guy was finally alone.

The toilet that Li Shui went to was relatively simple, just a space surrounded by four walls, without a roof, and completely open to the air. Behind the toilet was a pig house, and there was a fat pig lying in it.

In fact, this toilet was specially used for servants, not for guests. Chun Yuyue was also a bit shabby, so he deliberately didn't tell Li Shui and let him come here.

Li Shui didn't care at all. After all, in the Qin Dynasty, what could happen?

Zhu'er observed the area nearby, and then climbed up a big tree using her hands and feet. She sat on the trunk, covering her figure with leaves, and then looked down at Li Shui with a crossbow.

Just at this time, a strong wind blew, and the tree crown swayed, revealing the figure of Bamboo. She quickly grabbed the branch next to her to steady herself.

Then I heard Li Shui shouting: "Come here, someone is peeping, come here, someone is peeping."

Zhu'er turned around and saw that Li Shui was clearly pointing in his direction.

Zhu'er had no choice but to quickly jump off the tree and run away.

After a while, Li Shui came out of the toilet and said to Chunyu Yue: "There is a maid in your house who climbed up the tree to spy on me."

Chunyu Yue was a little unhappy: "Sir Huai, all the servants in my house are well-educated and understand the etiquette, justice and shame. If you pick anyone at random, I'm afraid they are more observant of etiquette and law than you. How could they spy on you? What's more, what do you have to see?

?”

Li Shui wanted to argue, but Chunyu Yue dropped one sentence: "Master Huai has insulted me many times today. I'm sorry that I can't accompany you anymore."

Then, Chunyu Yue flicked his sleeves and left.

Li Shui asked Li Xin: "Is your sister-in-law angry? I, the one being spied on, are not angry. Why is he angry?"

Li Xin said: "That's how he is. His face is more important than his life. Brother Huai, did someone really peek at you just now?"

Li Shui said: "Is that still false? It's just that the distance was too far and I couldn't see her face clearly."

Li Xin said: "Forget it, you won't lose a piece of meat after just looking at it. Let's go on to drink. Chun Yuyue's wine tastes a bit strange, but once you get used to it, it's not bad."

Li Shuiyou sat down with deep thoughts, thinking in his mind, how to find that expert?

Chunyu Yue did not show up again.

In a hidden hut, Chunyu Yue was looking at Zhu'er opposite: "Are you spying on Huaiguzi?"

Zhu'er asked a little unconvinced: "Why did you think it was me?"

Chunyu Yue said: "None of the maids in my house can climb trees. Only you, girl, have some incredible abilities."

Zhu'er sneered, and then said: "I won't hide it from you. I didn't want to spy on him, but I wanted to catch him."

Zhu'er shook the crossbow in his hand: "I suspect that Huai Guzi is the person who wants to kill me. I saw the crossbow in his hand. No one else can make such an exquisite crossbow."

Chunyu Yue was startled and said, "Absolutely not. If we kill him, Your Majesty will be furious and will definitely investigate to the end."

Zhu'er frowned: "But if I let him go, he will definitely invite help. By then, it is possible for those people to attack Chunyu Mansion."

Chunyu Yue pressed his hand down and said, "Please be patient. Why do you think he is the one who wants to kill you?"

Zhu'er said: "Just rely on the crossbow in his hand."

Chunyu Yue breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This crossbow is not his own. But a few days ago, a group of assassins wanted to kill him. As a result, the assassins were wiped out, and he got a few good crossbows. These crossbows are the assassins'

of."

Zhuer was stunned for a moment, and then said doubtfully: "It's weird, haven't those assassins been chasing me? Why did they suddenly go to kill Huaiguzi?"

Chunyu Yue said: "Huai Guzi is shameless, arrogant and domineering. There are too many people who want to kill him."

Zhu'er nodded: "That's it."

Then, she asked in confusion: "But he was shouting in the house just now that he was looking for some master, and he even entered my study. Wasn't he looking for me?"

Chunyu Yue didn't want to tell Zhu'er that Li Shui was the man who made convex lenses. He coughed and said, "This Huaiguzi, I heard that someone in my house can make immortal wine. I want to kidnap this person back and make immortal wine."

Liquor for profit.”

Zhu'er said: "I see. Now he already knows that I am in your house. Otherwise... I go out overnight and change places?"

Chunyu Yue said: "No, this man is extremely treacherous. At this time, I am afraid that he has secretly sent someone to keep an eye on me. If you go out at this time, he can determine who is the master in my house."

Zhu'er hummed, and suddenly his heart moved, and he said, "Perhaps, we can send an irrelevant old slave and let him sneak out to disturb Huaiguzi's sight."

Chunyu Yue's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "This is a very clever plan. Why not send Gou Sheng out? Huaiguzi must have become suspicious, thinking that Gou Sheng was pretending to be crazy. After he tried his best to steal Gou Sheng into his house,

It turns out that he is really crazy. When that happens, it will be wonderful, hehe..."

Zhu'er couldn't help but laugh.

On the other side, Li Xin and Li Shui had drunk enough wine and left Chunyu Yue's mansion arm in arm.

After leaving, Li Shui immediately asked Cang Fu to take several craftsmen to keep an eye on Chunyu Yue's mansion. He must find out who went out and where he went every day.

Cang Fu agreed and led his men to keep an eye on Chunyu Yue's house.

Li Shui and Li Xin wanted to go home. Suddenly a servant ran over and said respectfully: "My lords, be careful. I have been looking for you for a long time. I am the housekeeper of Lord Zhao Teng's house. Your Lord has asked me to come and invite you."

Sir, come into the house and have a chat."

This place was not far from Zhao Teng's residence, so Li Shui nodded.

On the way, Li Shui asked the servant: "Your Majesty, the envoy is looking for me. What's the matter?"

The housekeeper sighed and said, "Your Excellency, you have been very busy recently. According to Your Majesty's idea, it shouldn't be difficult to catch the assassin. Who knows that several days have passed, but there is no clue."

"The corpses of the assassins in Shangjun Courtyard are almost stinking, but they still cannot be identified."

"The crossbow used by the assassin is extremely exquisite, but after checking all the craftsmen nearby, they all said they had never seen it before."

"What's even more bizarre is that after Tian Quan heard the dagger a few days ago, he barked and rushed out to find someone. He seemed to have a clue. But in the past few days, he seemed to have lost his direction and just circled around the Neishi Mansion.

, unwilling to go out and search.”

Li Shui chuckled and said, "Actually, I already know who the mastermind behind the scenes is, but I'm just afraid that the emissary won't believe it."

While he was talking, Zhao Teng's mansion had already arrived.

Zhao Teng heard that Li Shui was coming and rushed out to welcome him.

After a few people sat down, Zhao Teng explained his troubles, which was not much different from what the housekeeper said.

Zhao Teng gave a bitter smile and said: "Now that my prestige has been established, who in Xianyang City doesn't know that Zhao Teng is so courageous and capable. Who doesn't feel jealous when my name is mentioned? But in ten days

There is not much time left. If the murderer cannot be found by then, I, Zhao Teng, will be completely defeated. Once Your Majesty is disappointed, today's majesty will turn into a reminder in the future."

"Master Huai, Zhao Teng offended half of the people in Xianyang today, all because he wanted to find the murderer for Brother Huai. If Brother Huai has any idea, please give me some advice."

Li Shui smiled and said: "Master Zhao, actually, I have always wanted to make friends with you."

Zhao Teng's face turned green and he thought to himself: "Is this taking advantage of the situation?"

He coughed dryly and said vaguely: "It's not impossible to make friends. It's just that I'm so worried now that I really have no other thoughts. If I can catch the real culprit and make a deal with His Majesty, other things can be done.

Think about it."

Li Shui was overjoyed and said: "Okay, then I will catch the murderer for Brother Zhao. Then we will become best friends."

Zhao Teng laughed dryly and said nothing, thinking to himself: "Have I promised you? No, I just said to think about it. You may make a mistake yourself, but don't blame me."

Li Shui stepped forward and said mysteriously: "Actually, Ma Lingshu had already recruited him before he was alive. The man behind him was Zhao Gao. As long as you start with Zhao Gao, it will not be difficult to find out.
