The maid who committed suicide must be an accomplice, and it is also important to understand her recent behavior. The secret guard protects the master and pays more attention to the people around the master.
The maid usually only works in the inner courtyard of Xuanyuan Wumu and has almost no contact with anyone outside the courtyard.
But every week she would go out to meet a cousin. The two of them were bought back by the Demon Cult at the same time, and her cousin was working as an errand in another place.
The two meet once a week to talk and have meals together.
It's been like this since she first came here a few years ago, so no one thinks there's anything wrong with it.
Moreover, she and her cousin were ordinary people who did not know martial arts. They could not read a single word. They had escaped from the countryside and there was no one at home.
It could be said that the Demon Cult was their home, and Xuanyuan Wumu was her direct superior, so she had no reason to harm him like that.
According to the secret guard, Xuanyuan Wumu and the maid have never had any conflicts. The maid is an honest person who works seriously and down-to-earth.
Xuanyuan Wumu is busy with work and doesn't have many opportunities to meet her in a day. As long as she completes her job well, he won't beat or scold her for no reason.
There was no such thing as salary theft. Xuanyuan Wumu liked extravagance and good looks, so he would only give his servants more wages than other companies. He wanted others to feel that there were more benefits to working with him.
Precisely because there was no enmity between the maid and Xuanyuan Wumu, her life was regular, and she was not a money-grubbing person, the secret guards did not expect that she would be the one to harm Xuanyuan Wumu.
The elders immediately sent someone to bring the maid's cousin. The cousin was brought here. She was so frightened that her whole body became stiff. She stumbled and needed help from people on the left and right to move.
Looking at her like this, she must know something.
She can be frightened like this, which shows that she is not a tough person.
There is no need to scare the elders, she will tell them.
She said that her cousin did not see her every week. They only met once a month. The other three opportunities for her to go out were reserved for her lover.
I haven't heard that people who work as servants in the Demon Sect are not allowed to get married. These people who are bought can marry at will, and the children they give birth to are the children of the Demon Sect's family.
But there is one thing. Once you get married and become a woman, jobs will be redistributed.
Married women have a position as a married woman, and they can definitely no longer do such work as being a personal maid next to their master.
After getting married, the salary of a woman in her new position will often be lower than the original one. Of course, this is not a general rule. For the maid next to Xuanyuan Wumu, the salary before and after marriage will be much different.
This was also the reason why the maid persuaded her cousin to help her cover up.
The maid wanted to enjoy a high salary and get out of her single life, so she started an underground love affair without telling anyone else.
This cousin said that it is not uncommon in the church for men and women to be weekend couples without getting married, so she didn't think there was any big problem.
She never expected that her cousin would poison her master. This matter had nothing to do with her.
She worked in the sewing department, making clothes and doing some mending.
She is usually very busy at work, and she has a sweetheart who is from within their department. They are in an office romance. Except for meeting her cousin once a month, she spends the rest of the time in the area where she lives and works. ….
Her life circle was simple, and the elders sent people to investigate, but nothing special about her was found.
She shouldn't have access to rare items like rest grass.
The elders also asked people to find out the maid's secret lover.
My cousin didn’t know who that person was. She never mentioned that person’s information, and she didn’t even know his name.
All they know is that the two of them had tokens of love: the lover gave her cousin a jade pendant, and her cousin gave the lover a purse.
The body of the maid was parked in the igloo, which is the morgue of the Demon Cult. They also pay attention to choosing a good day after death before holding the funeral. During the preparation for the funeral, the body is stored in the igloo.
After the maid committed suicide, someone searched the body to find evidence that she had harmed others.
Her belongings were stored in a small warehouse next to the meeting hall.
There is indeed one inside
A jade pendant. When everyone saw this jade pendant, their expressions were very surprised.
Because this jade pendant is extremely rare and cannot be bought for hundreds of thousands of silver.
The person who can give her a jade pendant has a great background.
The maid's cousin said that her cousin didn't know how valuable the jade pendant was, and thought she bought it for a few taels of silver. She was interested in the sentiment of the jade pendant, not its value.
After all, there are no such expensive things in the small town outside the teaching. Although the maid has followed Xuanyuan Wumu and seen many valuable things, she has never seen such a strange jade.
The jade pendant is pure black, and the surface is not smooth and shiny. It looks more like a black pebble, but the carving is exquisite.
The two sisters also discussed that if the jade was worth a few taels of silver, it would also be worth its carving skills.
Little do they know that there is a kind of jade unique to Tengxue Country. It is not very attractive in appearance, but it has strange effects. Long-term wearing can beautify the skin and reshape baby's skin. It does not require injections or medicines. It is a beauty artifact that many beauty lovers seek.
It's just because this thing is so hard to find, and it can only be found by luck. No new jade has been unearthed in decades, and the few pieces that were once lost due to various reasons, so not many people mention it now.
I'm afraid Xuanyuan Wumu has never seen it, so how can the maid next to him know how precious this thing is.
The maid came from the Demon Cult four years ago, the lover showed up two years ago, and the love token was given to each other a year and a half ago.
The maid is usually reluctant to wear it because she is afraid that others will discover her secret love, so most of the time the jade pendant is hidden in her cabinet.
If she didn't wear it, she wouldn't notice its magical effect, and she would just treat it as an ordinary beautiful stone.
So the question is, why did you wear something you don’t wear on a daily basis on the day of suicide?
The person who searched her body recalled that the jade pendant was hanging on her waist, not hidden in her clothes, hanging in plain sight and visible at a glance.
At the time, he thought it was a stone and didn't pay special attention to it.
The suspicious items they thought were things like daggers, needles, and poison.
Or something with obvious token characteristics, such as a token or something.
Knowing the value of the jade pendant, the expressions of everyone present became subtle.
There are many servants in the Demon Cult, but none of them are rich.
Had they not been too poor to live, they would not have been bought in.
Xuanyuan Wumu, who loves spending money so much, may not be willing to buy such an expensive thing. Who could... use such a valuable item to win over a maid?
People who earn a few taels of silver a month definitely don’t have the capital.
"Well, maybe someone from the outside bribed the people inside. I'm not sure about this identity." The elders stared at each other with suspicion, and someone came out to break the delicate atmosphere.
"Yes, it is possible to spend hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to bribe a handyman who grows grass and raises horses." I added.
Several people turned their eyes and glared at me because of these words. I innocently spread my hands and shrugged, indicating that I didn't understand why they were angry. .
The medicine is life-threatening
