Chapter 267 Exposure
"Doctor Cui, how's it going? The body still has temperature. It's obviously just dead. Can you find out something?"

Chen Tan asked in a hurry.

There is no other way. The case has been going on for so long, and there has been no clue. Now that they have finally found a clue, they must not stop it.

Dr. Cui pursed his lips and saw that Xiao Cui'er's mouth was slightly open. There was still something in his throat that he hadn't swallowed, so he stretched out his hand and took it out. He said with a serious face, "The poison in this maid is the same as the poison in the second young lady and that maid. Now it seems that the murderer is already obvious."

Chen Tan was overjoyed, with a flash of killing intent in his eyes, and said loudly, "Then I will take someone to tie up that young lady right now."

Dr. Cui nodded, and Chen Tan walked out quickly.

Ning Xiaoqi looked at the corpse, and sighed softly, she was fine during the day, but now there is only a cold corpse left.

I'm afraid that they were looking for this maid during the day, making the young miss suspicious, so they killed her.

Pity.

Ning Xiaoqi picked up the bag on the side and wanted to cover her, but when she picked it up, she found that there was still something inside.

Ning Xiaoqi was a little puzzled, and she was still heavy. After pouring out the things, she and Dr. Cui were both stunned.

Dr. Cui was the first to react, staring at the flower with his eyes straight, a little surprised on his face, "This is that flower, why is it here."

Ning Xiaoqi shook her head slowly, seeing that the flower had broken off, but the yellow flower bloomed extremely coquettishly, with no branches and leaves, only rhizomes. This was the flower Chen Tan saw in the second lady's room. It is one of the indispensable ones that make people poisoned.

Ning Xiaoqi hurriedly took the flowers and said to Dr. Cui, "Master, I'll go and send the flowers over, so that the eldest lady won't admit it."

Dr. Cui nodded, looked at the corpse on the ground, sighed softly, and asked the government to take the corpse with him.

Now all the evidence points to the eldest lady, even if the eldest lady denies it, it is useless.In the middle of the night, Chen Qin led the officers and soldiers and rushed in directly from the main entrance of Peng's residence.

A group of people went directly to the courtyard of the eldest lady. Such a big commotion woke up Master Peng and other people in the mansion.

Master Peng was displeased. When he heard the report from the servants that Chen Tan led the officers and soldiers directly to the eldest lady's courtyard, he felt something bad in his heart. Helped go.

Missy's courtyard.

The eldest lady was sleeping soundly, but her boudoir was kicked away vigorously, and then a group of officers and soldiers broke in one after another.

The eldest lady was woken up, and when she saw this scene in her room, her whole body exploded.

He quickly pulled off the quilt to wrap himself tightly, and shouted loudly, "What are you doing! How dare you break into my boudoir in the middle of the night."

The officers and soldiers stood respectfully on both sides without saying a word. The next moment, Chen Tan walked in slowly.

Seeing the angry look on the young lady's face, she said coldly, "Missy, the county government found that Lingmei's death was related to you, so please come with us."

When the eldest lady heard this, her face immediately changed. "Master Chen, you said that my sister's death has something to do with me. Is there any evidence? If there is no evidence, please go out!"

Miss Peng had a tough face, but she was a little puzzled in her heart. Could it be that they really found something?
Impossible, that person said, even in the capital, few people would know about this kind of poison, let alone here, and she had already thrown the flower and Xiao Cui'er's body into the well at night. With a depth of more than ten meters, it is impossible for them to find anything abnormal there.

The eldest lady looked a little embarrassed.

Chen Qin snorted coldly, "Of course there is evidence, please ask Missy to come down now, don't you want Chen to ask someone to drag you down?"

"you"

Miss Peng's complexion changed, seeing so many people in the room, her arrogance suddenly faded, and she whispered, "Master Chen, it's okay to go, can you let them all go out?"

Chen Tan pursed her lips, her face became colder and colder, "It's not like she's not wearing clothes, why are you dawdling? Could it be that Miss Peng wants to destroy some evidence?"

"I!!"

She is a woman, and she is still a woman who has not been out of the cabinet. It is enough to lose face being looked at by so many people here, and she is required to wear clothes in front of these people!

If this spreads, who will dare to marry her in the future!

The eldest lady was so angry that she was dying.

Chen Tan was unmoved in the slightest. The woman in front of him was not pure and thoughtful. If they went out and asked her to destroy some clues, who would he turn to?

Miss Peng didn't move, and Chen Tan didn't move. The group remained in a stalemate. After a while, Master Peng hurried over, looked at the situation in the room, and rushed in immediately, protecting Miss Peng by himself. Behind him, his face was very embarrassed, and he looked at Chen Tan and asked word by word, "Master Chen, what are you doing! Why did you bring someone into the little girl's boudoir in the middle of the night?"

Chen Qin glanced at Mr. Peng, with a calm expression on his face, "Naturally, he found some clues. Mr. Peng, the death of the second lady of the Lingfu seems to have something to do with this young lady."

"Impossible! My lord must have some misunderstanding!"

As soon as Chen Tan finished speaking, Master Peng immediately retorted, his face was very bad.

Obviously, he believed that the eldest lady would not do that.

In the final analysis, the eldest lady has no reason to kill an unfavored daughter, but it is a pity that this is the case.

"Is that the case? I'll ask the eldest lady. As for the county government handling the case now, Mr. Peng should not stop him. Otherwise, please invite Mr. Peng to the county government."

"You..." Mr. Peng gritted his teeth, seeing his daughter bursting into tears, his heart ached terribly.

He respected and feared Chen Tan.

In the end, I had no choice but to say, "My lord, if this matter is related to the little girl, we will obediently go to the county government with the lord, but now, can we let everyone else go out? In the face of this, if this is told by someone with a heart in the future, the little girl's reputation will be completely ruined."

Chen Tan raised his eyebrows and glanced at the officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers clasped their fists at Chen Tan and obediently went out to wait.

There were only three of them left in the room, so Miss Peng got out of bed crying and put on her clothes.

After they were dressed, the two father and daughter leaned together and cried softly. Chen Tan glanced at them, turned around and asked someone to take them all to the county government.

Mr. Peng mingled with Miss Peng all the way, comforting him softly, and he was also a little apprehensive. He wanted to ask, but he couldn't open his mouth even though there were so many people around.

I couldn't believe it, how could a young lady of the Peng family think of killing an unfavored second daughter.

A group of people went directly to the county government office, and as soon as they reached the door, they bumped into Ning Xiaoqi, who walked past Miss Peng with a potted plant in his hand.

When Miss Peng saw the flower, her whole body froze, and she looked at Ning Xiaoqi in disbelief.

At this moment, her mind suddenly exploded. Why did the flower appear here? Didn't it have been thrown into the dry well with Xiao Cui'er's body?
