It was too dark last night for him to see clearly, nor did he think of this possibility. It was only after Xue Zhan's reminder today that it dawned on him.
"I saw it when I was a kid. I was quite amazed at that time, so I remembered it."
There were few people born with six fingers in this world. So although he had only seen it once, he remembered it especially clearly.
Liu Rumei couldn't help frowning slightly, with a bit of confusion in her eyes. "If this person is not the one, then where is that man?"
Could it be that someone had used the trick of substituting the fake for the real?
At this thought, a chill flashed through Liu Rumei's heart.
Xue Zhan, however, pondered for a moment. "If this person is still alive and has used this trick of substituting the fake for the real, then this person must still be in the Grand Marshal's Mansion! I'll go back to the mansion right away!"
Since the person had six fingers, all he had to do was to gather everyone in the mansion and let them show their right feet to find out.
A Nan raised his eyebrows but didn't say a word. He always felt that this matter was not that simple.
However, this method was worth a try.
Mo Liandi frowned slightly. "You should take Aunt Qiao out of the Marshal's Mansion first."
If this person was really still alive, he might bear a grudge against Aunt Qiao. Aunt Qiao would be in danger if she stayed in the Grand Marshal's Mansion.
Xue Zhan nodded. "Yes."
This was exactly what he had in mind. This time, no matter whether the old man agreed or not, he would take his mother out of the Grand Marshal's Mansion.
Seeing this, Mo Liandi asked again, "What about the two people you brought back to the yamen yesterday?"
Xue Zhan curled his lips. "It's just that these two were having an affair in the abandoned yard of the Marshal's Mansion and were seen by Qian San, so he took this cruel action!"
Liu Rumei frowned. "An abandoned yard?"
Heng Niang couldn't help smiling. "This person is really unlucky. What was he doing in that dilapidated yard in the middle of the night?"
Xue Zhan's heart tightened instantly. That's right. That yard had been abandoned for many years and no one usually went there. Why did Qian San go to that abandoned yard in the middle of the night?
Was it someone's deliberate plan?
A cold light flashed in Liu Rumei's eyes. "Maybe he knew something he shouldn't have!"
For example, he saw the man's right leg. The man was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he deliberately lured him to the dilapidated yard and resorted to the trick of killing with a borrowed knife.
The Yun Xi and Yun Li brothers were standing there leisurely, their eyes full of curiosity.
Yun Li hesitated for a moment and tentatively said, "Since this person was seriously injured at that time and would not have the strength to do these things in the future, maybe he had an accomplice in the Grand Marshal's Mansion!"
Being injured so badly and still being able to set up such a situation, there must be an accomplice.
Yun Xi also nodded seriously. "The accomplice may have a very special relationship with that man!"
Otherwise, why would he take such a big risk to cover for him?
Hearing this, Xue Zhan couldn't help raising his eyebrows. His eyes looking at the two brothers were full of amusement. "Not bad, Miss Liu. You've really taught these two kids well!"
Hearing this, Yun Li blushed slightly. He couldn't help holding Liu Rumei's hand, his voice a bit nervous. "Sister, is it really so?"
Yun Xi, however, raised his eyebrows and laughed. "We must be right!"
Then he also moved closer to Liu Rumei and unconsciously separated Mo Liandi from her. "Sister, are we right?"
Liu Rumei's eyes were full of smiles. "Yes."
The Yun Xi and Yun Li brothers were very smart. They could understand things with just a little hint!
Seeing Yun Xi suddenly appearing between them, Mo Liandi's face darkened instantly. This stinky kid must have done it on purpose.
Seeing this, Heng Niang couldn't help nodding repeatedly. Looking at the two identical faces, she felt extremely fond of them. They really suited her more and more. She wondered how many girls' hearts they would break when they grew up.
A Nan followed Heng Niang's line of sight and instantly felt alarm bells ringing in his heart. Just dealing with Liu Liu was already giving him a headache. If these two little brats were added, he would only feel that his future was bleak!
Liu Liu was a girl, and he could still tolerate her. But these two...
At this thought, he quickly dragged Heng Niang away. It was better for them to come to the Prince Guo'an's Mansion less often in the future.
"Heng Niang, the inn hasn't been opened for a long time, and this matter has nothing to do with us. Let's go back first!"
Yun Xi was always a smart kid. He immediately saw through A Nan's thoughts and couldn't help curling his lips. Only he would treasure such a woman!
Xue Zhan, however, leisurely walked up to Liu Rumei, with a bright smile on his face. "Miss Liu, can we discuss something?"
A look of confusion flashed in Liu Rumei's eyes. "What is it?"
Xue Zhan rubbed his hands secretly. Looking at Yun Xi and Yun Li beside Liu Rumei, his eyes were full of eagerness. "Miss Liu, you see my yamen is always so busy. Zhang Yan has left, and Xiao Heyuan is useless. Why don't you lend them to me?"
Mo Liandi glanced at Yun Xi standing beside him and couldn't help nodding secretly. This was indeed a good idea. It could kill three birds with one stone! Not bad!
Yun Xi gave him a disdainful look. "We're still kids. How could you bear to make us work? Shameless!"
Yun Li glanced at Mo Liandi beside him, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded seriously. He bowed politely. "We'd better not trouble Lord Xue!"
Liu Rumei couldn't help reaching out and stroking Yun Li's head. She said with a gentle smile, "Lord Xue is dedicated to his duties and knows his place. I believe that Lord Xue will surely do a good job. When they grow up, if they are willing to help Lord Xue, I will never stop them!"
For now, it's better not to.
Thinking of what Xue Zhan had done before, Liu Rumei couldn't help shaking her head. This was not helping at all. If she really agreed, she was afraid that Yun Xi and the other would become coolies once they went there!
Xue Zhan couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed, but he still asked reluctantly, "Really not possible?"
Liu Rumei shook her head. "Lord Xue, you'd better go and pick up Aunt Qiao quickly!"
It was said that a cornered dog would jump over a wall. If they alerted the enemy, this person might be even more harmful to Aunt Qiao!
Seeing this, Xue Zhan couldn't help sighing deeply. He turned around and left dejectedly. Why didn't they trust him? He was clearly doing this for the good growth of these two brothers!
After Xue Zhan left, Mo Liandi reached out and stroked his chin. He said seriously, "Liu Liu, I think what Xue Zhan said is not a bad idea!"
It was an eyesore to keep these two in the mansion. It would be better to send them for some training. On the one hand, it could save Xue Zhan a lot of trouble. On the other hand, it could also train their abilities.
Yun Xi didn't need to think much to understand his intention. He quickly grabbed Liu Rumei's hand and said aggrievedly, "Liu Liu, I don't want to go!"
