Dali Temple has his Lord Luo

Chapter 169 Nonsense
The words of housekeeper Liu Cheng surprised Qin Zhao!
What theory is this?
Could it be that all this was planned by the people in Ma Mansion?
Qin Zhao remembered Luo Ning's analysis and stood behind Luo Ning to study the man in front of him.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Luo did not answer, but still smiled:

"What happened to Mr. Ma is really surprising. I wonder if Butler Liu is familiar with Wu Bo, the eldest son of Lord Zhongwu?"

"Oh, I know that person, he has been to the mansion several times, because he often goes to meet friends in the old man's house outside the city, and has some contacts with the old man!"

"Really? Does Butler Liu know that? Wu Bo is dead! Or he died of poisoning. The time was the day of Master Ma's accident, not long after he left Ma Mansion!"

"what?"

Liu Cheng was so frightened that his lips trembled.

At this time, a little maid was brought over. There were still traces of being palmed on her face. Her eyes were swollen but her eyes were very stubborn. She stared at Liu Cheng fiercely.

At this moment, Liu Cheng was shocked by Luo Ning's words just now and didn't pay attention to Xiaoying's eyes at all.

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Luo Ning said to him:
"Steward Liu, you go and do your work first. I'll look for you after asking Xiaoying. Please don't go too far!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Liu Cheng left in a panic, while Xiaoying lowered her head and said nothing.

"I just went to Jingzhao Mansion's jail to meet the second lady, and I appreciate you Jia, thank you for protecting her!"

Luo Ning admires the little maid's bravery and her protector's loyalty. She is a good girl!

"The second lady did not kill the master. She was wronged. It was all the fault of the first lady and the housekeeper!"

Luo Ning knew, so he whispered:

"I know that there are some details that I need to verify with you!"

Xiaoying was very surprised:
"Sir, do you know that the second lady did not kill anyone?"

Luo Ning nodded:
"Steward Liu said that the second lady poisoned her, what did she use?"

"It's just a bowl of tea, but I brought the tea into the study!"

"When you entered the study, was the second lady there?"

"Not here, so I'm still curious. Neither the master nor the madam are here!"

"How many cups of tea did you pour?"

"There is only one cup. The butler said that Madam is thirsty in the study and asked me to bring a cup of tea in!"

"Where did you go after that?"

"I waited for a while, feeling strange, so I went to look for the second lady. Finally I found her on the way out of the toilet, so I helped the second lady back to my yard!"

The route was roughly clear, Luo Ning thought, if Housekeeper Liu wanted to poison Wu Ying, the best place would be in the study, eliminating everyone's suspicion.

But the dose of poison is not large, so what is the butler going to do?

"Sir, the second lady has been cleared of suspicion. She should be able to go home soon, right?"

"Yes!"

"She is pregnant and it is too dangerous to be in prison!"

"Don't worry. Since she was eliminated as a suspect, Jingzhao Mansion has moved her out of the prison. However, the case has not been finally investigated yet, so she is temporarily detained!"

Xiaoying felt relieved.

"What happened to your face?"

"Yesterday, the servant wanted to send the second lady to Jingzhao Mansion. I stopped her and was beaten several times!"

Luo Ning was very touched that such a young child knew how to protect the Lord loyally.

"How is the relationship between the second lady and the master?"

"It's good, and the second lady is pregnant, so the master is very happy!"

"Where's the eldest lady? What's going on?"

"The eldest lady is older, and the food and clothing expenses in the mansion are all decided by the eldest lady."

"What about her relationship with the second lady?"

"It's not good. It was better when the second lady wasn't pregnant before. But since the second lady became pregnant, she has been making things difficult for her!"

"The eldest lady has no heirs?"

"No, I have been taking decoctions for these years, but it doesn't work!"

"When did Butler Liu come to the house?"

"The housekeeper has been there since the eldest lady entered the house. He was brought over by the eldest lady from her natal family!"

Understood!
Through Xiaoying's words, Luo Ning straightened everything out.

Then the last step is to interrogate Liu Cheng.

Ever since Luo Ning asked Xiaoying, housekeeper Liu Cheng had been sitting in the foyer in a daze.

He never imagined that things would develop like this, and he was slightly uneasy, but the two adults were in the house now and could not go to the eldest lady to discuss it.

Liu Cheng was like an ant on a hot pot, anxious and confused.

Luo Ning and Qin Zhao walked into the foyer and couldn't help but laugh when they saw Liu Cheng was in a state of disbelief:

"Steward Liu, after asking maid Xiaoying, we have a basic understanding of what happened that day."

Liu Cheng nodded and smiled:
"That's good, that's good!"

"But there is one thing that remains unclear. How does Butler Liu believe that it was the second lady who killed the master?"

"Sir, the only one in the whole government who found arsenic was in the second lady's yard!"

"However, today we visited the medical officer who issued the certificate that day. He remembered clearly that Mr. Ma had a heart disease from the certificate issued that day. What is going on?"

"This... I'm afraid he remembered it wrong. The master was indeed poisoned."

Liu Cheng's sweat dropped, how could that happen?How did that happen?How to resist now?

"Furthermore, I still have questions. The second lady is already pregnant, and the Ma family has no heirs. How good it would be for the second lady to have children in the future? Don't you think so, Butler Liu?"

"Indeed, it's really good!"

Liu Cheng wiped his sweat.

"If she is lucky enough to give birth to a son, as a mother is more valuable than a son, her life in the house will be very easy. Then why would she kill Master Ma?"

Liu Cheng couldn't answer.

"Look, Butler Liu, you sent the second lady to the Jingzhao Mansion, which is full of loopholes. We really can't convict you with just a bag of arsenic!"

"Then, that's great, then let the second lady come back!" Liu Cheng quickly squeezed out a smile: "Come back, it's best if there is no suspicion!"

"Steward Liu, something happened to Mr. Ma now. It seems that Butler Liu is in charge of this house! Can you make the decision?"

Liu Cheng was frightened to death and fell to his knees on the ground:
"Sir, the young one is just a housekeeper. He doesn't dare to dream about anything. He is just the master and madam guarding the old servant and wants her to live a better life!"

"Let her live a good life, and you just fabricate evidence and frame good people? She lives a good life, and you just poison her, and end up poisoning the innocent Wu Bo? Huh? You said you are not delusional?"

Liu Cheng kowtowed and admitted his mistake:

"Sir, the little one gave arsenic in a very small dose. He just wanted the second lady to have a miscarriage after drinking it!"

"It's just a miscarriage? You say it so easily? Mr. Ma has no heirs, but he finally has a child. You are afraid that you will lose your glory and wealth, so you poison the child? That is also a human life! You are murdering!"

Liu Cheng was completely frightened and started crying!
Luo Ning breathed a sigh of relief:
"Did you do these things alone, or was the eldest lady also involved?"

"It's all my idea, but the eldest lady knows every step!"

"How did Wu Bo drink the poisonous tea?"

"I really don't know. I didn't know he came to the house that day!"

"It's a shame that you killed two people for your own greed. We still don't know what happened to Mr. Ma now. However, the evidence is conclusive that you and the eldest lady killed Wu Bo. Just wait and go to jail!"

Luo Ning and Qin Zhao walked out of Ma Mansion and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"This case turned out to be so twists and turns! Thanks to my Lord Luo!" Qin Zhao sighed.
