After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 273 Dispelling Doubts

When the servant saw Li Siqi, he immediately replied respectfully, "My Lord, the person imprisoned in this courtyard is a Central Plains girl. The master snatched her from the street. The master treasures her very much, so he imprisoned her in this small courtyard and sent many people to watch her."

The servant explained to Li Siqi.

When Li Siqi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. Isn't this talking about Xu Yingying?

Isn't Xu Yingying imprisoned in here? It's easy to find after searching everywhere.

"Oh, so that's how it is! Okay, then you go down!" Li Siqi waved his hand.

"Yes, my lord."

Li Siqi pretended to be indifferent on the surface, but in fact he already had a bold idea in his mind.

night.

Li Siqi took advantage of the dead of night and quietly climbed into the yard where Xu Yingying was.

Xu Yingying was startled when she heard the noise and subconsciously wanted to scream.

But before she could cry for help, a pair of hands tightly covered her mouth. At the same time, a familiar voice sounded in her ears.

"It's me, Li Siqi."

"Shh, keep your noise down."

Xu Yingying, who was originally panic-stricken, suddenly calmed down when she heard Li Siqi's voice.

Seeing that Xu Yingying's emotions had stabilized, Li Siqi let go of her hand.

"Why are you here?" Xu Yingying asked in a low voice.

Her little face was full of surprise.

"I asked someone to disguise himself as a guard and sneak into Telemu's team, then I staged a scene to save him. Now he has appointed me as his personal guard and asked me to stay here to recuperate."

"During the day, I heard that a Han Chinese woman was imprisoned here. I guessed that it was you, so I found an opportunity to sneak in here at night to come and see you."

Li Siqi told Xu Yingying roughly what had happened during this period.

Xu Yingying was very surprised after hearing the whole story, especially when she learned that Li Siqi was injured.

"Ah? What? Are you injured? Is it serious?" Xu Yingying asked with concern.

"It's okay! It's just a minor scratch, nothing serious. It will heal after a while. It has almost scabbed over now." Li Siqi hurriedly explained.

Xu Yingying heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this, "That's fine."

At the same time, footsteps were heard outside the door.

Xu Yingying and Li Siqi looked at each other.

"Just stay here and I'll come to see you next time." After saying that, Li Siqi quickly jumped out of the window and ran away.

Seeing this, Xu Yingying quickly hid in the quilt and pretended to be asleep.

As soon as Li Siqi left, the door of Xu Yingying's room was pushed open with a creaky sound.

The maid looked around the room cautiously, then said to herself in a somewhat strange tone, "Why did I hear a man's voice just now? Could it be that I didn't get enough rest these days and heard it wrongly?"

She began to doubt herself greatly.

After saying that, she quietly closed the door and left.

Xu Yingying, who was lying on the bed, immediately breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.

After a few more days, Telemu's mansion was almost completed.

Taylormu also relaxed a lot about this. He no longer went to the construction site every day to keep an eye on it like before. Instead, he focused on Xu Yingying and began to hang around in front of Xu Yingying to make his presence felt.

Xu Yingying talked a lot more than before, but she spoke Chinese, and Tailemu was often confused.

Not only him, but even the maids and guards around him couldn't understand what Xu Yingying was saying.

At this critical moment, Li Siqi stepped forward.

He asked Tailemu, "Your Excellency, I have a suggestion. I have learned a little Chinese from the people of the Central Plains and can speak Chinese. If you are confident, I am willing to help you translate for Miss Xu."

"You can also teach adults Chinese, so that when they learn it, they can communicate with Miss Xu without any obstacles. When Miss Xu finds out that adults have learned Chinese for her, she will definitely be very touched."

Li Siqi hurriedly emphasized.

As soon as these words came out, Taylor Mu was immediately excited, “Is everything you said true?”

"Of course. How dare I lie to you, sir?" Li Siqi said, pretending to be docile.

"Okay, okay, then let's do as Guard Li says!" Taylormu made the decision with a wave of his hand.

In this way, under the guidance of Li Siqi, Tailemu not only learned a lot of Chinese, but also learned how to please Xu Yingying.

noon.

Taylormu entered Xu Yingying's small courtyard with joy.

But before he got close, he heard Xu Yingying's laughter coming from the room.

"really?"

At the same time, there was Li Siqi's voice.

"Of course it's true, how could I lie to you?"

When Taylormu heard the laughter coming from the room, he suddenly felt bad.

He rushed in angrily, only to see Xu Yingying, Li Siqi and a few maids chatting about something.

Seeing this, Taylor Mu's mood eased a little, but he still felt wary of Li Siqi in his heart, mainly because he was afraid that Li Siqi would develop feelings for Xu Yingying.

Maybe Li Siqi also noticed that Taylor's expression looked a little bad.

Li Siqi quickly knelt on the ground and saluted to Telemu, "I am honored to meet you, sir."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room noticed that Tailem had been standing at the door without them noticing.

The maids all bowed to Taiermu in fear, but Xu Yingying did not react at all. She sat calmly beside the table, as if she could not see Taiermu, and drank tea leisurely.

Taylor was very annoyed by Xu Yingying's attitude, so he took out his anger on Li Siqi.

"Why does she smile at you and not at me? Does she like you?" Taylor Mu questioned Li Siqi.

Upon hearing this, Li Siqi immediately showed a very panicked look and argued for himself: "My Lord, I just told everyone a joke, and not only Miss Xu laughed, but all the maids in this room were also amused by me."

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the maids in the house. They were also there, and it's impossible for them to lie for me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, several maids quickly echoed them.

"Your Excellency, I can prove that what Guard Li said is true. He and Miss Xu have not done anything excessive these days."

"Your Excellency, Guard Li did tell Miss Xu a joke just now because he saw that she was in a bad mood."

"Yes, sir, I can prove that what everyone just said is true."

……

When Telemu heard this, the expression on his face eased a little.

Li Siqi saw this and said quickly, "If you don't trust me, please transfer me away from the courtyard to help build the mansion with everyone. This way I can stay away from Miss Xu, and you can rest assured."

When Taylormu heard this, he immediately panicked. What if Li Siqi left to be his translator?

Taylor Mu quickly spoke to comfort Li Siqi: "You don't have to say anything, I believe in your character, you are not that kind of person."

After these words were spoken, Li Siqi and Xu Yingying felt relieved.

"Thank you for your trust in me, sir." Li Siqi said respectfully.

In this way, this farce was finally covered up perfectly, and Li Siqi successfully got rid of suspicion.
