"Wait a minute," Yuan Mu raised his hand to signal Madam Wu not to worry, "Please Madam Wu, please bring the cook in the house and the servant who is responsible for serving the food that night. We want to interrogate him face to face."

The Second Madam agreed and brought a few people over. Shen Wei looked at Mu Liuyun and saw that Mu Liuyun handed him a color, so he volunteered to follow Madam Wu and go to the kitchen with her to find someone.

Mu Liuyun was very satisfied with her reaction. He turned to Jiang Jin and whispered to Jiang Jin, "Look, my new apprentice is pretty good, isn't it?"

Jiang Jin sighed: "What are you doing? She belongs to a girl..."

"That's right! If she wasn't a little girl, I wouldn't have accepted her!" Mu Liuyun muttered softly.

Jiang Jin really wanted to remind her that it was best to be careful and keep some distance, so as not to be criticized like the women she took in in the backyard of Mu's family.

But before he opened his mouth, he saw Yuan Mu sitting aside calmly drinking tea from the corner of his eye. Thinking about what he had said to him, he held back the persuasion that was on his lips.

Mu Liuyun also thought that Jiang Jin would say something else, but he didn't expect that he didn't say anything and didn't continue to persuade him to behave as he did in the past. He couldn't help but feel a little puzzled and looked at him a few more times.

After a while, Mrs. Wu and Shen Wei both came back. Shen Wei consciously walked around and stood behind Mu Liuyun. His posture did not look like a young apprentice, but rather like a personal maid that Mu Liuyun was bringing with him. Like a guard, he is powerful and domineering.

"How is it?" Mu Liuyun turned his head and asked her.

"Everything is normal, there is no suspicious person found." She nodded to Mu Liuyun, looking serious.

Mrs. Wu brought back seven or eight people. One of them was wearing an apron around her waist. Looking at the woman in her forties in the morning, she must be the cook of the Wu family. This cook was stocky and had a face that looked like she was always cooking It looks red because it is baked on the side.

Among the remaining people, there were two skinny maids with sallow skin, and a few other servants.

These people probably didn't know why they were suddenly called out by the second lady. They were all a little frightened and crowded together, as if standing like this would give each other a little more courage.

After the second lady brought them, she just let them stand in the courtyard without telling them anything, leaving a whole courtyard full of anxious servants. After a while, finally a servant with the same dark skin finally even looked at them. The maid, who looked somewhat powerful, arrived belatedly with a young woman in her twenties.

The young woman was slender and different from Mrs. Wu who was covered in peony embroidery. She was dressed in plain white and her eyes were red and swollen. She looked like she had just cried. She was brought over by the maid and saw Wu. The second lady shrank slightly, her expression was sad and aggrieved, and she seemed to be a little bit afraid.

"Sir, this is Qiniang. Because she was the seventh one Wu Rongzhi brought home and took as a concubine, he called her Qiniang." Mrs. Wu Er didn't even glance at the Qiniang. Taking a glance at them, he said respectfully to Yuan Mu and Mu Liuyun.

Yuan Mu looked at Qiniang with cold and unemotional eyes. Although he was handsome, he had a kind of coercion. When he looked at him, Qiniang couldn't help but wince when he looked up.

Mu Liuyun also looked at the woman, and then said to her: "Are you Qiniang? Your master had a banquet for guests in the mansion, and you were the one accompanying him from beginning to end?"

"Back, sir," Qiniang replied tremblingly. Although she didn't know where the adults in front of her came from, since the second lady called her that, she followed suit, "My

I never went to Japan, I never did

Someone asked me to come over and serve, but I haven’t seen the master for a few days. I was thinking hard, and I also thought that there were so many people in the house. It would be unavoidable if there was no one who could help the master keep up his face.

It was too shabby, so I made my own way.

I went over there and told the master that I wanted to perform a dance for all the distinguished guests. The master agreed, so I danced. When the master saw that he was happy, he asked me to stay and drink and dine with him."

As she spoke, her eyes did not forget to glance at the second lady, as if she wanted to see her reaction.

It's a pity that the second lady just sat there calmly, without any emotional fluctuations. After Qiniang looked at it, she gritted her teeth secretly, seeming to be a little annoyed, but she didn't dare to show it, she was still

A little pitiful look.

Her subtle little expression could not escape Mu Liuyun's eyes. She looked at the appearance of this concubine's room, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings. First, she was struck by her pitiful "Think too hard" just now.

", thinking of Wu Rongzhi's age and majestic appearance, I suddenly felt goosebumps all over my body, and then I felt that this woman was really stupid and hopeless.

Not to mention whether she had anything to do with Wu Rongzhi's death or whether she would be implicated. At least now that Wu Rongzhi died, the family would have fallen into the hands of the two principal wives, Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu. Only they two

An individual can actually take charge of all the property in the family, and since the eldest lady never leaves the Buddhist hall all year round, the actual person in charge is Mrs. Wu.

As a concubine in the family, according to Mrs. Wu’s opinion just now, this Qiniang is still a maid from another family who is committed to Wu Rongzhi. That is a concubine. If Wu Rongzhi is still alive, then pleasing the master is naturally her most important task.

But now that Wu Rongzhi is dead, the life, death and future of a concubine are completely in the hands of the head wife.

At a time like this, she actually has to make some weird remarks to show off in front of his wife. I really don’t know whether the thing under her head is brains or dregs.

"Let me ask you, since you went to perform the dance not long after the banquet started, and I heard that Wu Rongzhi also stayed in your room at night, why did such a good person suddenly die suddenly in the second half of the night when nothing happened in the first half of the night?

?" Mu Liuyun asked slowly while looking at her with a half-smile, slowly walking around her in circles.

At first, Qiniang saw that Mu Liuyun's eyes were always circling her body, and she was a little nervous. Now after hearing this question, she suddenly panicked and fell on the ground in a hurry: "My lord, you are wronged! I don't know why the master suddenly

out

After such a thing happened, after the dinner was over, before the master returned to my room, he talked with the second lady on the porch for a long time, and then went back to the room. In the middle of the night, no one was around. What happened in the meantime?
