The wife of the power minister's family

Chapter 207 Xu Jing’s Inference

Vice General Sun?
Xu Jing immediately remembered that this afternoon, Qingyun hurriedly went to find Mrs. Cen and accidentally bumped into her. Qingyun went to see Mrs. Cen at that time because of Vice General Sun.

If she guessed correctly, Liang Guogong came back at that time. After dealing with the matter of Lieutenant General Sun, Liang Guogong drank two large cups of herbal tea out of anger and was poisoned.

Mrs. Cen glanced at Feng Zhao with sharp eyes and said: "Don't worry, I have sent people to find Vice General Sun. Today, I will definitely find the cancer that poisoned the Duke!"

Feng Zhao trembled when Mrs. Cen saw him, but he still gritted his teeth and continued: "Except...in addition to Vice General Sun, there is also Manager Liao! Manager Liao also came this afternoon. He said he would come in to help Madam get something, but He came out quickly, and the villain saw that his hands were empty, and he didn’t look like he went in to get anything at all!”

Manager Liao is the chief steward of Duke Liang's mansion. He is tall and fat. He smiles all day like a Maitreya Buddha. Xu Jing can see him every time she comes to Zhao's house.

Mrs. Cen was startled, and her face immediately darkened again, "I never asked Liao Shangwen to pick up anything today!"

Liao Shangwen is the name of Manager Liao.

After saying that, he turned to Qing Yi and said, "Where's Liao Shangwen! Didn't I ask you to send people to find him just now? Such a big thing happened, but he hasn't even been seen yet!"

Qing Yi quickly said: "Madam, I have sent four maids one after another to find Manager Liao, but no news has been sent back so far."

Everyone immediately frowned.

As the chief steward of Liang Guogong's mansion, today should have been his busiest day. It was unreasonable for him not to come out when something happened to Liang Guogong. At this moment, no one could be found. Normal people immediately thought that this must be the reason. Something is fishy.

Mrs. Cen couldn't help but said sharply: "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Qing Yi said with a bitter look on her face: "My slave... I have never been able to find a chance to say that just now the situation of the Duke of Guo was so critical. Madam's mind was focused on him. Later, the Lady asked my slave to take care of today. Anyone who has entered this courtyard in the afternoon will come here..."

Zhao Shaohua on the side couldn't help but said: "I heard from my mother-in-law that something happened to Mr. Liao's family some time ago. His wife made a big fuss. My uncle and aunt both said a few words to him. Will he?" So I hold a grudge..."

Mrs. Cen pursed her lips and said: "Probably not, that's just a trivial matter. Besides, Mr. Liao is an old man in our house. He followed your grandfather when he was young. He wouldn't betray him just because of such a trivial matter. Our Duke Liang’s Mansion. Qingyu, go to Manager Liao’s room immediately to check the situation!”

Qingyu immediately said: "Yes!"

Manager Liao's room was not far from here. Qingyu came back soon and said: "Madam, Manager Liao is not in his room either, and several drawers in Manager Liao's room have been opened. Those drawers should be Manager Liao's room." The places where valuables are usually kept are now empty, and Mr. Liao’s wardrobe has also been rummaged through.”

Everyone's expression changed.

This... is clearly a sign of packing up and fleeing!
Feng Zhao immediately said: "The villain said that Mr. Liao's expression was very wrong today! I'm afraid that because of the Duke's scolding, he was resentful and impulsively poisoned the Duke today, and he was worried about the scandal, so he Run away quickly! We have always been loyal to the Duke's government, and we will never poison him. Madam, please be aware!"

Several other people quickly echoed Feng Zhao, fearing that they would be misunderstood as the poisoner.

Mrs. Cen secretly gritted her teeth, closed her eyes and said, "Come here, go immediately to track down Liao Shangwen's whereabouts! You must capture him!"

At this moment, Xu Jing, who had been silent on the side, suddenly said: "May I ask, when did Mr. Liao disappear?"

Everyone didn't expect her to speak suddenly, and they all looked at her in surprise.

Zhao Jingming suddenly seemed to have thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Who can answer Madam Xu's question? Come on, tell me roughly, when was the last time you saw Manager Liao!" He suddenly remembered Madam Xu is also an expert in solving crimes. Maybe she can help them find the murderer who poisoned his father!

To be honest, emotionally, he couldn't accept that the person who poisoned him would be General Manager Liao. Ever since he could remember, General Manager Liao had been by his side, like a brother and a father. He couldn't think of any reason for him to betray their Duke Liang's house. !

After Zhao Jingming said this, everyone thought for a while and began to tell the last time they saw Manager Liao. Among them, the one who saw Manager Liao the closest to now was Qing Yi. She said: "Slave Shen Shi is around seven o'clock ( 45:[-] pm) I also saw Manager Liao. At that time, the lady sent her slave to find Doctor Xu. The slave met Manager Liao on the way to find Doctor Xu. At that time, Manager Liao was hurriedly walking towards the backyard. The slave called He couldn't even hear him.

The slave girl knew that Manager Liao was very busy today, so she didn't take it to heart. "

Seven o'clock in Shenshi?

The time when Liang Guogong was poisoned was probably a quarter past five o'clock (five-fifteen), but there was only about two-quarters of an hour in between.

Xu Jing frowned slightly, looked at Feng Zhao and said, "Do you remember when Mr. Liao came to Mrs. Cen's yard?"

Feng Zhao was stunned and said: "I remember, when Manager Liao came over, it was not Shen Shi (three o'clock in the afternoon) yet."

If he was the one who poisoned her, he would have done it quite early.

Xu Jing thought for a moment and suddenly said: "Can I ask why Mrs. Cen and Liang Guogong reprimanded Mr. Liao before?"

Zhao Shaohua couldn't help but said: "Doctor Xu, why are you asking these questions? Could it be that you saw something?"

Xu Jing had easily exposed Mrs. Hua's conspiracy against Mrs. Jiang, but Zhao Shaohua still remembered it.

Xu Jing nodded and said, "I have an idea that I want to test."

Madam Cen was the only one present who knew why General Manager Liao was reprimanded. Mrs. Cen was silent for a moment before saying with a slightly green face: "That is Manager Liao's family matter. I didn't want to make it public. Manager Liao had a son who was about the same age as Jing Ming. Only five years ago, his son died in an accident. Since then, Manager Liao and his wife have been trying to have another child, but nothing has happened.

Manager Liao has not yet turned [-] this year. His old mother who lives in the countryside was extremely anxious when she saw that Mrs. Liao’s stomach had not moved. Some time ago, she brought a young woman to Xijing and asked Manager Liao to take care of her. After she took one and left one for the Liao family, Mr. Liao’s wife was very angry. She made trouble at home several times, even in front of Mr. Guo and I. Mr. Guo and I then called Mr. Liao over and reprimanded her. He said a few words and asked him to deal with his family affairs as soon as possible.

Manager Liao has always been serious and responsible in his work. This is the first time that Mr. Guo and I have reprimanded him in so many years. "

It was because of such a thing!

Zhao Jingming's face darkened and he said: "I didn't expect it to be because of this. I also remember Zian. He and I often played together when we were young. My father was very optimistic about him back then and said that when he gets older, he would be allowed to join the army for training. , who knew it would suddenly disappear... Manager Liao was depressed for a long time after that."

Zhao Shaohua hesitated and said: "But, just because of such a trivial matter, Mr. Liao will not poison the uncle!"

She also thought that her uncle and aunt scolded him because of something more serious.

Xu Jing glanced at them and said: "I agree with Mrs. Zhao's words. I think the real murderer is not Mr. Liao. Mr. Liao was only used by the real murderer. Mr. Liao is probably in trouble now."
