Chapter 349 Teddy Who Has Been Staying in the Study

It is not difficult to clean up the special tobacco before dawn with more than a dozen people entering the plantation farm.

Even the people in the underground plantation farm may have already started preparing today, or a few days ago.

At this time, it is only necessary to have someone drive over, pack all the special tobacco and leave, even if someone discovers the farm afterwards.

It's just some equipment, but there is no way to prove that it is used to engage in illegal activities.

Li Changheng snorted coldly in his heart. Perhaps the only thing Mitch didn't expect was that Scotland Yard was also a member of the Metropolitan Police Service, and evidence was needed to arrest him.

But for MI5 or Kingsman, any sentence that involves state secrets, or threatens the safety of members of the royal family, is suspected of murdering royal relatives, the Earl of England, can throw him into a special prison.

The various methods used to deal with spies and agents are not something ordinary people can bear.

When the authorities are playing rogues, there are ways to investigate him, even if he threatens with evidence that other nobles have also grown special tobacco.

Once he is kept in a prison where no one knows, those nobles will be panicked, will they die for him?

Maybe he will clean up the underground farm in the manor by himself.

So, the only question Li Changheng is facing now is, what benefit can he get from this matter?

Hereditary title?

Get rid of Mickey and cover up the scandal of nobles growing special tobacco.

Whether it is those nobles who grow tobacco or not, they will definitely agree with Philip to protect Andrew and Mountbatten, two members of the royal family.

There is also the Grand Duke Grosvenor, the eldest son and marquis of the two Grand Dukes Perelin and Iter.

Li Changheng was awarded the hereditary title on the grounds of the three nobles of Bell, Jeffrey and Fred.

Moreover, these nobles don't want everyone to be unlucky, so they can only use their connections to influence Downing Street.

Even if the current public party does not agree, Wilson has stepped down, and the public party has long been unpopular these years.

The probability of conservatives staying in Downing Street is actually not small. It may not be possible for the nobles to work together secretly to keep the conservatives in power.

But it's absolutely fine to give it a push.

When the owner of Downing Street changes, Li Changheng's hereditary title will be easily proposed by the new first item, and then handed over to Philip and even the House of Lords for approval.

Everything is in compliance with the rules and laws.

But do you really need a hereditary title?

But the only thing Li Changheng can be sure of at this time is that he hopes that old Gosford will die, and now he has indeed died.

But if you don't find out who killed the old man, you will always have suspicions on yourself.

It's okay at this time, maybe in the future, someone will use it as a weapon to slander him.

Because in many cases, there is no need for empirical evidence to slander a person, as long as the murderer is found directly, and the other party pleads guilty, then he can disregard his relationship.

Force Andrew to stay in the living room honestly, and then give his bodyguards and death orders, if they can't see Andrew, they will leave immediately.

She winked at Lorraine Theron, making her look at Andrew as well.

Li Changheng led Hart out of the living room and went to the old Gosford's study.

When he entered the study, he frowned and watched Lavinia unconscious in the middle of the study.

Her husband Anthony held her and tried to wake his wife.

Sylvia ordered the housekeeper and servants to take away the barking Teddy.

"Wait," Li Changheng immediately called to the butler Condela.

"Is this dog alone in the study?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but no one spoke for a while.

Li Changheng snorted coldly in his heart, "Who was the first to enter the study?"

The Countess of Terence, Sylvia's aunt, suddenly said, "Henry, the police will be here soon."

Li Changheng smiled, this old woman is really stupid, or she kindly reminded herself not to be implicated by others.

"Okay, wait for the police to come, but before that, this is a murder scene, everyone get out."

After finishing speaking, he said to the butler Condela, "Have someone stay outside the study, lest someone destroy the clues at the scene."

"Ming, understand, SIR."

Everyone left the study with different expressions, and Li Changheng took the Teddy from the maid's hand before leaving.

Only to find that the dog's gaze was actually on Anthony.

He whispered to the maid, "Does this dog like to bark?"

"me,,".

While the maid faltered, she glanced at the back of Sylvia who was leaving from time to time.

"Are you Countess Silvia's personal maid?"

"Yes, yes, Sir."

"Then let me remind you that collusion and non-reporting are sinful, and the crimes are not small.

Moreover, this involves a hereditary earl who is also the cousin of Queen Mary. This case will definitely be thoroughly investigated.

If someone finds out that you have concealed something, not only will you be guilty, but your family will be able to hold their heads up in the future? "

Hart rolled his eyes when he heard that.

It's hard to be sure about things like knowing and not reporting, but it's okay to scare uninformed maids.

After all, the people in Gosford Manor were from small places, not the citizens of London who jumped out to protest and make trouble at every turn.

They are not necessarily full of awe of the royal family, but they will definitely be bluffed by the royal family's name.

After all, the kingdom has no rights anymore, and Philip is also the nominal monarch of England. For ordinary people, the royal family is an existence that they can't compete with at all.

Not to mention that this kind of question can also be asked by others.

As long as she is not stupid, she dare not say nothing, let alone lie.

"Teddy will yell a few times except when he is hungry, and basically won't yell at other times, and, and,,".

The maid looked around.

Seeing that there was no one else but Hart, he reassured and whispered, "Besides, the Earl is holding Teddy every day, so it will take the initiative to find him as soon as it leaves the Earl."

Will you take the initiative to find it?

Dog nose is not a random description, perhaps this is an important clue.

Li Changheng smiled, and Hart quickly reacted.

A dog that doesn't bark or bark at all, and is held in the arms of old Gosford all day long, and will go to look for the owner when he doesn't see him.

So under what circumstances does it bark non-stop?

Dogs can protect the owner, so Anthony's suspicion is already high enough, as long as evidence is found that he has been in, he can be convicted.

But the question is, how did he sneak away from the billiard room.

Secret door?

Li Changheng instantly thought of most castles, but they all have secret passages.

It's a pity that the old Gosford's body couldn't be moved just now, causing the body to lie on the desk, making it difficult to see many clues.

However, Li Changheng also noticed the antique musket on the desk.

Even noticed a powder bottle on the table, and what should be a box with lead bullets.

Under what circumstances would Old Gosford take out the powder bottles and lead bullets while cleaning up the antique guns?
