Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!

  Chapter 88 County prison storm

Just when Chu Nanzhi was at a loss, Xiaofen suddenly looked at her, and replied firmly: "It is true that I have never seen Taoist Ximen in the past few days, but I heard that it is indeed because of Taoist Ximen's sudden visit. Mistress That's why I rushed back to the mansion early."

   Then, half-closed her eyes, she began to carefully recall what happened that day:

   "My servant remembers that I was picking tea with my mother in the back mountain that day. The mistress came over and thought she was picking tea too slowly, so she helped her pick a handful, and then hurried back to the mansion."

   "Have you ever seen Taoist Ximen?"

  Chu Nanzhi looked at her closely and asked anxiously.

  Xiaofen pursed her lips, and shook her head resentfully: "No, Taoist Ximen didn't show up after that, and later I heard that he was sent to prison for the tax bank case and died in prison."

  Chu Nanzhi saw that her answer was not ambiguous, combined with the date before and after, I am afraid that the Han family will indeed never have the chance to see Taoist Ximen again.

  After much deliberation, the answer to the poison can only be found by going to Nanhua Temple.

   Just when she was about to end the questioning, she suddenly thought of Wei Ziqing again, and looked over meaningfully: "Your lady and Mr. Wei"

   "This slave dares to swear to the sky, and the lives of the whole family of slaves are guaranteed. Mr. Wei and Xiaoniang have nothing to do with each other."

As she said, Xiaofen raised her hand swearingly, and stared at Chu Nanzhi with firm eyes: "Mr. Wei has met with Xiaoniang twice since he came to the Shen family's mansion. This servant remembers it very clearly. The first time It was at the beginning of last year, when Mr. Wei first entered the mansion, and again at the end of the year, he was invited by the mistress to thank Mr. Wei for his kindness."

  The answer is exactly the same as that of Shen Yang.

   And one of the two stayed at Shen's house all day, and the other was trapped in the prison, so there was no possibility of collusion.

   It can be seen that the adultery is pure nonsense.

  Eliminating this possibility, Chu Nanzhi could no longer think of a reason why Shen Yang could murder her husband.

  Raising her eyebrows, looking at Xiaofen deliberatively, Chu Nanzhi asked in a tentative tone: "Tomorrow I will go to Nanhua Temple in person, I wonder if sister Xiaofen would like to go with me?"

   "As long as I can avenge the grievance for the young lady, the servant will not be afraid even if she dies."

   "It's not that serious."

  Chu Nanzhi was a little moved.

  I thought she would shy away when mentioning Nanhua Temple, but she never thought it would be so straightforward.

  It seems that there is really a deep relationship between her and Shen Yang.

  Nodding in relief, she softly yelled at the groom: "Go back to the county office first."

  It was not yet noon, and it took only half a day to go back home. Li Sanmu and Guan Erbai were a little puzzled.

  The two looked at each other in dismay. Although Li Sanmu had a good temper, he couldn't understand the woman's operation at all, and asked rather puzzled: "Sister-in-law, do you have any clues?"

"No."

Chu Nanzhi didn't lie to them, and said bluntly: "Although I inspected the half bag of scented tea yesterday, I didn't have time to compare it carefully. It just so happened that today I took the same tea from the Han lady's courtyard, and then I went to compare and compare them. Can you find some new clues?"

  Although she is somewhat suspicious of the Han family right now, she doesn't have enough evidence to support her hypothesis.

  She also encountered this kind of situation when she was a criminal policeman in her previous life. She was obviously very sensitive to the suspect, but in the end all the evidence pointed to it was not this person.

  So, sometimes the conclusions that are completely judged by the senses cannot stand scrutiny.

  Besides, she has never thought of the reason for Han's murder of her husband so far. It is impossible for Shen Jianghe to find out that this woman had an affair with Taoist Ximen.

  It would be too absurd and funny to do this, Han seems to be in his forties, and Taoist Ximen is also a pretty boy with a pretty face, so he shouldn't be so hungry.

  After thinking about it, she fixed her eyes on the two yamen servants again, and said after deliberation: "If there are no more clues, I'm afraid I will have to bother the two gentlemen to go to Nanhua Temple with my slave's house tomorrow."

   "South China Temple?"

  When they heard that they were going to Nanhua Temple, Li Sanmu and Guan Erbai's faces turned dark instantly.

  Guan Erbai directly resisted with silence, clasped his hands tightly, buried his head in boredom and did not want to speak.

Li Sanmu also had a bitter expression on his face: "Sister-in-law, I didn't mean to pour cold water on you, so how can I go in and out of Nanhua Temple at will, and I don't have a clue about it, even if the county magistrate personally holds the card ticket. You must be able to go up the mountain, but there are three eldest princesses practicing here in the temple, which angered the royal family, who can bear the responsibility for this."

  Chu Nanzhi took his words seriously, this is indeed a headache.

  The cards (search warrants) in their hands can enter ordinary people's homes, but how can they enter the royal palace.

   It's just that now there is only one place left where it is possible to find the source of the poisonous tea leaves. If you don't go there yourself, how can you find the evidence.

  So, go here no matter what.

She was silent and didn't talk to the two of them any more. She waited for the carriage to return to the county government office. She went to the steamed stuffed bun shop next to the county government office and bought a lot of steamed buns and some white flour steamed buns. With a belly full of energy, he barely cheered up and entered the county government compound.

  At this time, Hu Maoxi was not in the yamen, and the people who received her were Sun Xiancheng and the chief secretary who would frown tightly when he saw her.

  Sun Xiancheng led Chu Nanzhi and the others into the inner hall, worshiped tea, slowly frowned, and sighed at Chu Nanzhi:

"This morning, Mrs. Yu committed suicide in prison. Before the review documents submitted to the county government arrived, the woman committed suicide by herself. The county magistrate was quite sad about this, so he went to Zhao Taigong in person early in the morning. The house is here."

   "Ms. Yu committed suicide?"

  Chu Nanzhi was also very surprised.

  In the past, Liu Xianwei and Ximen Taoist committed suicide in prison, and now it is Yu Shi. Those who don’t know think that the county magistrate tortured them into tricks, and the criminals were forced to commit suicide due to unbearable torture.

   It's no wonder that Sun Xiancheng is so annoyed.

Sun Xiancheng glanced angrily at Li Sanmu and Guan Erbai who were standing aside, his brows were full of anger, and said angrily: "It's also because of the negligence of these prison guards that the food sent to the prison last night was so disappointing." The woman was knocked over, and she was asked to hide a piece of rubble secretly, Yu Shi used this to end his own life."

  Seeing him in such distress, Chu Nanzhi had no choice but to comfort him: "He is a heinous person, and he will die anyway, it's no big deal, and the county magistrate doesn't have to feel sad about it."

   "Miss Chu doesn't know something."

Sun Xiancheng looked at her mysteriously, and suddenly lowered his voice: "When this criminal woman was interrogated a few days ago, it was found that she was nearly three months pregnant. Now that the family has no heirs, Matsushita said that he wanted to ensure that the woman gave birth to a baby before being convicted, and I don't know how Mrs. Yu got wind of the news and committed suicide secretly."

"I see."

  Chu Nanzhi also sighed with some regret, and then fell into a short thought. It seems that Yu's resentment towards Mr. Zhao is not as deep as usual.
