Chapter 391 System 2 Star Mission
Manager Liu wanted to ask more clearly, but Jiang Youzhen had already asked him to call all the servants who had eaten breakfast before.
After Jiang Youzhen asked around, he found that there was nothing unusual about these people, and they were just eating the leftovers from breakfast.
"You mean you didn't drink the bird's nest porridge?" Jiang Youzhen asked and soon realized something.
"The bird's nest porridge must be drunk by the master and the mistress! Today, the mistress did not drink the bird's nest porridge, only the master drank it, and there was only a small bowl of porridge."
The servants looked at Jiang Youzhen with a look as if to ask why they were not eating meat porridge. This bird's nest porridge was such a precious thing, how could they, the servants, afford to eat it?
"Do your master and mistress need to take bird's nest porridge every day?" Jiang Youzhen continued to ask.
"I don't take it often. After all, bird's nest porridge is quite expensive~" The little girl who answered was called Dong'er, who had been serving the couple's daily life.
"Early this morning, Dong'er came to the kitchen and said that the Madam wanted to drink shredded chicken porridge, and she made bird's nest porridge for the Master."
The cook was very sure, and the other servants agreed. They finished drinking the bird's nest porridge and shredded chicken porridge, and shared the remaining food. The leftovers were thrown into the slop bucket.
Jiang Youzhen asked them all to go back. The first person she suspected was Kong. But Kong had no reason to do this. It was not a bad thing to accept her as a disciple, unless there were other reasons that she didn't know.
Returning to the outer room of the bedroom, Jiang Youzhen saw Qian Ru sitting in the armchair wiping her tears, and couldn't help but sigh.
When Qian Ru saw Jiang Youzhen coming, she quickly stood up and wiped her tears.
As soon as she opened her mouth, Jiang Youzhen said, "Miss Qian, don't worry too much. I will find a way with the famous doctor. I'll go in and see the teacher."
Jiang Youzhen said this and walked quickly into the bedroom without waiting for Qian Ru to reply.
At this time, Kong was sitting absent-mindedly beside Qian Chongen's bed, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Master's wife!" Jiang Youzhen stepped forward and called softly.
Kong came back to his senses, "Oh! You're here!"
"The master has fallen asleep." Kong pointed at Qian Chongen who was already asleep on the bed.
"Master's wife, may I have a word with you?" Jiang Youzhen stepped forward and glanced at Qian Chongen who was already fast asleep. The mastermind behind this matter must be found out.
[The system issues a two-star task: Please find out the real murderer and the mastermind behind the murder of Qian Chongen within 15 days. I hope the host can complete the task as soon as possible and will receive a generous reward! If the task fails, the system will freeze the task for six months and will not issue any more tasks during this period! ]
Unexpectedly, the system task came so quickly. Jiang Youzhen was originally not sure whether Qian Chongen was murdered, but now the system has given a clear answer.
If she was poisoned, then she would have a clue. Anyway, there are only so many people in this mansion, and if she checks them one by one, there will always be clues.
The two of them quickly left the bedroom, and Kong sat down with a worried look on her face.
"Master's wife! I will definitely find a way to find a famous doctor to help you recover. Please relax and take care of yourself."
Jiang Youzhen and Kong did not have a deep relationship, but Qian Chongen's current state might have a lot to do with her, so she really couldn't escape the responsibility of taking care of this family.
Besides, the apprenticeship was already agreed upon before, and only the ceremony was left today. Jiang Youzhen certainly couldn't ignore Qian Chongen's family.
Kong glanced at Jiang Youzhen with a strange look in her eyes, which made Jiang Youzhen stunned.
The look in his eyes was very complicated. If she saw it correctly, there was actually a hint of resentment in it? Was it her illusion?
"Actually, there is one more thing that I think I should tell Master's wife! I suspect someone poisoned her." Jiang Youzhen was not in the mood to guess what Kong was thinking, so he spoke directly.
"What?" Kong was shocked. "Why are you so sure?"
"But the doctor just said that the master just had a stroke caused by emotional excitement." Kong was a little suspicious. The master had never offended anyone in his life, and his family never took him seriously.
If someone wanted to murder the master and chose this time, it must be related to Jiang Youzhen.
"It's just a suspicion, I think it's a coincidence. But now I have found a suspicious person..."
Jiang Youzhen told Kong what had just happened. Kong's face was clearly filled with anger, from suspicion at first to irritation later.
"So Liuzi is indeed suspicious. How could he, a servant, have more than fifty taels of silver?" Kong also found this strange.
She stood up and said, "No way! I'll interrogate him. I don't believe he won't open his mouth."
Kong's face was full of cruelty at this moment. When she thought about her master being murdered and becoming like this, she wished she could cut the murderer into pieces.
"Master's wife, please don't be impulsive. It may not be Liuzi. There is still one person who is suspected, but there is no evidence. However, I have a way. Master's wife, why don't you wait a little longer? The truth will eventually come out."
Jiang Youzhen hurriedly stopped him. If Liuzi was not the murderer, wouldn’t that be alerting the enemy?
"How could it not be him? Otherwise where would he get so much silver?" Kong was very angry at this moment and didn't listen at all.
"Mom! Why don't you listen to Master Jiang? If that doesn't work, let's go and interrogate him again."
Qian Ru was also at a loss, but she always felt that Jiang Youzhen was calm and steady, and she couldn't help but regard Jiang Youzhen as the backbone.
Kong took a deep breath, then thought of something, and said to Qian Ru, "Ruru, go to your father's study and bring the letter in the secret compartment to show it to Mr. Jiang."
Jiang Youzhen was a little confused, but she understood that the letter must be related to her.
After the letter was brought, Jiang Youzhen saw that the signature on the envelope was Qian Songyun, a member of the Qian family.
Qian Songyun was a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, a fifth-rank official. He was the head of the direct lineage in the capital, and she had heard that Qian Chongen had a bad relationship with his family. It was probably not a good thing that he wrote back at this time.
Jiang Youzhen opened the letter and started reading it quickly, but the content of the letter made her face gloomy.
"You've seen it too. Because of you, our family wrote to embarrass the master. But the master wanted to take you in as his apprentice not for profit. He admired your talent, so he wanted to take you in as his apprentice."
The Kong family ninja had tears in his eyes, "As long as the master agrees and puts pressure on you, once you agree to join the Qian family camp, our family will find a county magistrate position for the master."
Jiang Youzhen finished reading the letter and was silent for a long time. Qian Chongen was actually a very simple person. He might have some small thoughts of his own, but he was definitely clear about the major issues.
"The master doesn't intend to do that. He said that he values your knowledge and your character, but you have to walk your own path in the future. Whoever you choose to join in the future is your right, and he can't interfere."
As Kong spoke, she began to sob. Qian Ru, who had just recovered from her shock, went forward and hugged Kong, and the two of them started crying again.
"I didn't know I was so important!" Jiang Youzhen smiled bitterly, and when her eyes swept over the words "Fourth Master", her eyes became sharp.
