When Lin Haoming arrived at the Su Mansion, Lin Haoming was a little surprised to find that the Su Mansion was actually near his home. The carriage arrived shortly after passing by his door. It was just because Lin Haoming would not go any further after returning home, so I don't know, and I don't even know that a little further on, it's the residence of Wu Jing, the deputy commander of his arrest department.
After getting off the carriage, several people immediately came up to say hello. Although Lin Haoming had just arrived, because he defeated Tian Cheng with one move as soon as he arrived, everyone in the entire arrest department knew him.
The person in charge here is Zhou Liangyun, one of Mou Xiang's squad leaders. After saying hello, Mou Xiang grabbed his shoulders and asked: "Liangyun, are there any of the people I asked you to take care of after I leave?" What's happening?"
"The cook was just scared. The maid kept crying, but the wife and concubine were scolding each other, each blaming the other for poisoning Su Changhai!" Zhou Liangyun reported.
"Is there any other discovery?" Mou Xiang asked.
"Not yet, but I have controlled all the people in the mansion, and also recorded the people who came to visit before, but these people should not be suspicious." Zhou Liangyun said.
"You did a good job, Brother Li. You are the most meticulous observer. I will take you to see it first. Maybe you will find something!" Mou Xiang said.
"Then go to the kitchen first!" Li Changsheng said.
"good!"
Led by Mou Xiang, several people headed towards the kitchen together. Lin Haoming discovered that Su Changhai's house was similar to his own. At most, it just had a bigger front yard and a few more side rooms. It seemed that his house was The best among the nine-rank officials are indeed right.
The kitchen of Su Changhai's house is not big. Because the master died, the place was sealed. Li Changsheng looked at the pot specially used to cook for Su Changhai. The pot had been cleaned long ago, and some of the ingredients were very ordinary. I carefully checked the pot and stove, but there was no trace of it.
"It seems that if the cook did it, she was either smart enough to wipe away all the traces, or she didn't do it here at all!" Li Changsheng said after looking around.
"Should we call the cook over?" Mou Xiang asked.
"Call her over!" Li Changsheng nodded.
Soon a woman who looked to be in her forties was brought. The woman looked quite young and looked ordinary. Seeing so many people in official robes, her face turned pale with fright. , when he arrived in front of Li Changsheng, he knelt down and cried: "Sir, it really has nothing to do with me. I have been cooking for you for more than a hundred years, and nothing has ever happened to you. It really is not me." It’s poisoned!”
The cook was crying, but Li Changsheng glared and shouted: "You didn't poison me, why are these poisonous powders next to the stove, and you still don't tell me the truth?"
"What kind of poisonous powder? I was wronged, I really was wronged, sir, I really didn't poison, I didn't know anything!" After Li Changsheng drank it, the cook was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground and could only scream Unjustly accused.
Lin Haoming knew that Li Changsheng was trying to scare the cook, but the cook showed no signs of anything strange except being scared. It seemed that she was not the one who had administered the poison.
But just when Li Changsheng wanted the cook to go down, he was already waving his hand. The cook suddenly lay down and grabbed Li Changsheng's feet and said: "I know, I know who killed him!"
"What, do you know who the murderer is?" After hearing this, several people looked happy.
"Yes...it's the eldest lady and Butler He!" said the cook.
"How did you know it was them?" Li Changsheng asked.
"Because...because the two of them were having an affair behind the master's back!" The cook said something that shocked everyone present. After she finished speaking, she seemed to be deflated and lay on the ground. pant.
Mou Xiang squatted down at this time, stared at the cook and said: "You just told us that Su He and Butler He had an affair, but does this confirm that they killed your master?"
"This... this is not an obvious thing. Their affairs must have been discovered by the master. The master originally wanted to establish Mrs. Su Zhen. The eldest lady knew that her position was not guaranteed, so she poisoned her!" The cook herself deduced. road.
Although this was what the cook thought of, there was nothing wrong with the whole idea, and if there was help from the housekeeper, Su He would have a lot of space and leeway to do this kind of thing. In the end, the master died at Su Zhen's place, plus She deliberately took out Bai Jing to offer a reward last time, which could indeed clear her of suspicion.
"How did you know what happened between Su He and the housekeeper?" Lin Haoming asked.
"I have always been in charge of the kitchen pantry. There are good things in the pantry. I...I will come and steal some for myself every once in a while. This is something I can't help. When I first entered the Su Mansion, I still look like I'm in my twenties, but I can't control my cultivation and continue to make breakthroughs. More and more time crystals are needed. I really can't help it. I've aged so much by this age. I don't want to die!" said the cook! Couldn't help but cry.
"Don't cry, how do you know this?" Lin Haoming shouted. Although he could feel her helplessness from the other party's words, this was the law of heaven. If she really had a great heart, she would not be like this at all.
When Lin Haoming shouted, the cook immediately stopped crying and said timidly: "Just three or four months ago, I secretly went to the kitchen to get the ingredients that I had saved for a long time. Who would have thought that everyone in the kitchen would be there in the middle of the night? I took my things and wanted to leave, but I heard someone making out in the dining room. Only the housekeeper and I had the key to the dining room. It was obvious that Housekeeper He was in there. At that time, I wanted to take advantage of Housekeeper He, so I wanted to see what he was doing. I did that to the little girl. Who would have thought that before I even entered, I heard the voice of the eldest lady. I was so frightened that I didn’t dare to move. After they finished making out, I vaguely heard them saying something. It turned out that The eldest lady and Butler He had an affair for a long time. It was just that the eldest lady's father wanted to please the master, so he married the eldest lady to the master. Originally, his parents' orders and the matchmaker's words could not help it, even if Butler He came later deliberately. In the mansion, the eldest lady still kept her duties until the real lady gave birth to a son for the master, and the master ignored her even more, so the eldest lady rekindled the old relationship with Butler He. They have been together for several years, and I have no idea. If they can find out, it is normal for the master to find out, so it is not impossible for them to strike first. Moreover, once the master dies, the eldest lady will still be the dowager, and it is not impossible for her and Butler He to work together to seize the family property and live happily together! "
The cook finished speaking in one breath, and by the end, she became even more certain that it was them.
Li Changsheng did not judge what the cook said. He just waved his hand and said to Zhou Liangyun: "Liangyun, keep her under guard. What she just said will be heard by others!"
"Yes!" Zhou Liangyun immediately took the cook away personally. The cook was being held up, but she still couldn't help shouting: "It's unfair. It wasn't until Zhou Liangyun threatened that she was too frightened to speak.
