Chapter 172
Nian Youxi looked back at the direction of the back house, and said: "Because I don't know if it is safe to speak in your server, so there is no way to tell the truth. After all, there are many people in the City Lord's Mansion, and it is very likely that some unfavorable news will be spread. news."

The young master thought for a while and probably understood what Nianyouxi meant, and then asked cautiously: "Then...does it mean that my father was poisoned? Uh, it's just...someone wanted to harm him?"

Nian Youxi nodded slightly: "You guessed it right, it was indeed poisoned."

"So I couldn't tell you in the back house just now."

The young master was even more angry, he clenched his fists tightly: "How could this happen?"

"My father doesn't have any enemies in this city, why did someone poison him?"

"Have no enemies?" Nianyouxi raised an eyebrow, it stands to reason that it is impossible for a city lord to have no enemies.

The young master nodded and said: "It's true. Over the years, my father has led the people in this city to become rich, and he often gave them tax relief. Everyone thinks that my father is a very good city lord, so These people have always supported him."

"How could someone poison my father?"

Nianyouxi suddenly felt that this eldest young master was really a bit stupid...

"Even if the people in this city want to poison your father, it is not so easy. After all, there are so many guards guarding the city lord's mansion. What you should consider is not these people, but the people in your city lord's mansion. these people!"

Young and young Xi is helpless, talking to this young master is to spread out all the things, if it is to go to the end, this young master probably doesn't know what it means.

"People in the City Lord's Mansion?" The young master frowned.

Nian Youxi glanced back slightly, there were a few sneaky people.

She said calmly, "I don't know if there are other people living in your City Lord's Mansion besides your own family?"

"For example, relatives and friends?"

The eldest young master nodded: "Yes, there is the third aunt's family, her younger brother, and her mother."

"Could it be that they poisoned it?"

Resisting the urge to beat him up, Nian Youxi said patiently, "I'm just asking. There is no evidence now, and no one knows who did this."

"Are they the only ones in the house?" Nian Youxi asked again.

"Second aunt's family also lives in the mansion, but they have lived there for many years. Second aunt's brother is the butler of the mansion, and sister-in-law is the cook in the back kitchen... Could it be that she poisoned while cooking?"

At this time, the young master had another guess in his mind, thinking that it was the cook who poisoned the dishes.

Nianyouxi took a deep breath and told herself not to be angry...

"So, there are quite a lot of people living in your family. If this is the case, it will be a little troublesome to investigate."

There are two aunts' families living in the mansion, and it seems that the city lord is quite easy to talk to.

Moreover, not only did he support his wife and children, but he also had to support his natal family, so he was indeed rich.

"Xianggu, what should we do now?" The young master was anxious.

Nian Youxi glanced at the sky and said: "Early tomorrow morning, you send someone to watch over the girl who collected dew for your father, who has been in contact with and what has she said since then."

"Okay!" The young master nodded vigorously, he doesn't believe in anyone now, he only believes in Nianyouxi.

After leaving the city lord's mansion, Sheng Jinmo walked slowly beside her, looking down at her slightly: "How did you know that the city lord was poisoned?"

She pursed her red lips, she couldn't tell this man that she had already learned the spirit detection technique, and with a little bit of spiritual energy, she could see the structure of the human body, right?Is it too mysterious to say this?
So he said: "I know some medical skills, and the symptoms of this old city lord are very similar to poisoning, so I made a bold guess. And the people in the city lord's mansion will confirm my guess early tomorrow morning. not real."

"Oh?" Sheng Jinmo raised his eyebrows slightly: "How to confirm?"

"No matter who this person is, he poisoned the old city lord, and his ultimate goal is to hope that the old city lord will die. Whether it is for power or wealth, this person's purpose is very simple."

"But today I appeared in the city lord's mansion and told everyone that I can heal the old city lord. Then, just in case, this person will definitely do something in the dew. We just need to find out who is collecting the dew It’s time to get started.”

In fact, this question is very simple. If you want to poison, the old city lord will never let go of any chance. If the old city lord's body is really cured, it will be a waste of all previous efforts for this person.

So after he said that he could heal the old city lord, this person must be unable to sit still and show his flaws, and save them from investigating one by one. Everything will be known tomorrow.

Sheng Jinmo slightly raised his eyebrows and said, "Actually, there is another way to deduce who the poisoner is."

"Then tell me?" Nian Youxi turned to look at him.

"Whoever benefits the most from the death of the old city lord must be the most suspected person," he said.

Nian Youxi doesn't think so: "This is what you ordinary people think. You think that whoever hates the old city lord or who can get the most benefits is the most suspicious person, but you have ignored the most important point, that is Point of departure."

"The young master also said just now that the old city lord has no enemies in this city. Therefore, the possibility of outsiders doing something is very small, only these relatives in the mansion are left, but why do these people do this?"

"Is it for power? For money? Or something else unknown? This is the starting point."

"Just like what you said, I don't object. If the person who made the most profit after the death of the old city lord quickly took over the old city lord's current position and inherited all the property in the entire mansion. Then this person has suspicious."

"However, what if it's hatred? The person who poisoned him doesn't care who inherits the position of the old city lord and who gets his property. This person just wants the old city lord to die. It's as simple as that."

Young Youxi's analysis made Sheng Jinmo silent. There are indeed such people who would hurt a person only because of hatred, neither for rights nor for property. However, with so many people in the house, a single dew would Can you find out?
"Don't think about it, it's useless for us to think so much now, we will know tomorrow morning."

She smiled, then pointed to the busy main street not far ahead: "Let's go, let's go shopping."
