The princess who loves to "cry" has candy to eat

Chapter 363
Lizhou Mansion glanced at the person covered by the white cloth, and his expression was startled: "Master Hou, what... what's going on?"

There are so many things going on in Sui Dinghou's mansion all day long.One person died just now, and another one came today.

Bai Shutang's eyes darkened, Zhao Zhong saw this, stepped forward and said: "Lord Li, she is the servant girl of the third lady, she must have committed suicide by hanging herself in the hall yesterday. When the body was found today, she was holding a confession letter in her hand. "

After finishing speaking, Zhao Zhong took out the confession letter from his sleeve and handed it to Lizhou Mansion.Lizhou Mansion looked solemn, the words on the paper were crooked, presumably this person seemed to be afraid of something when he wrote.

"Master Hou thinks she is the murderer?" Lizhou Mansion accepted the confession and asked solemnly.

Bai Shutang sighed: "Master Li wants to be brought to justice, and this marquis wants the well-being of the mansion. You and I have the same purpose. As for whether this person is a murderer, it depends on what the Lizhou government thinks. If Li Zhou The government thinks she is, she is. If the Lizhou government thinks she is not the murderer, then she is not."

Bai Shutang's answer was ambiguous.Li Zhoufu gritted his teeth, and his eyes suddenly flashed a trace of complexity and embarrassment.He is not ignorant of Bai Shutang's meaning.All he wanted was to settle the case quickly.Judging from the death of the third wife, Bai Shutang did not feel sad, presumably the third wife was not important to Bai Shutang.

"The officer understands."

After a long while, I left the state capital.

"What do you plan to do with the maidservants brought by the Lizhou Mansion?" Bai Shutang asked.

Lizhou Mansion lowered his eyes: "How does Hou Ye think it should be dealt with?"

"Send them away directly, and don't let them come back."

Bai Shutang took a sip of tea, without any fluctuation in his speech.This maidservant died strangely, if the investigation is carried out, it may be bad for the family's reputation.The day before yesterday when Lizhou Mansion came, there was an uproar in the mansion, and the people onlookers had already spread the word.

If it continues like this, I don't know how prosperous the rumors will be.

"Xiaguan understands, as Lord Hou wished, I will not get involved in this matter anymore, and I hope Lord Hou can feel at ease."

Lizhou Mansion cupped his hands.

Now the Zhenxihou Mansion has handed over a dead man, although this man's death is strange, but it can stop Youyou's mouth.Although Lizhou Mansion is a just person, Wu Shi's death is after all a family matter of the Hou Men's Deep Court, if it is true, he will have no way to control it.

"However, there is one thing. I want to talk to Hou Ye alone. I wonder if Hou Ye can let everyone in the mansion retreat?"

Lizhou Mansion asked.

Bai Shutang pondered for a moment, nodded, and called everyone in the mansion to retreat.Li Zhoufu walked up to Bai Shutang, cupped his hands and said, "Master, there is a sentence that I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"you please."

"Yesterday, the government doctor was poisoned to death." Lizhou Fu said.

"Poison killing? Is it really poison killing?" Bai Shutang asked after a slight pause.

"Yes," Lizhou Mansion nodded, "Originally, the official came to inform Lord Hou of this matter. I didn't expect such a thing to happen in the Hou's mansion today. It seems that the official came too early..."

After Lizhou Mansion finished speaking, he paused slightly, his eyes drifted away from Bai Shutang: "Although Lord Hou said that the matter is over like this, but what should be said, I still have to explain clearly to you, Lord Hou."

"Master Li, please speak." Bai Shutang bowed his hands and asked to make way.

"Master Hou, have you ever heard the story of the farmer and the snake?" Li Zhoufu asked.

Bai Shutang was stunned: "What does Master Li mean by this?"
