1311. Chapter 1311 The heavy counterattack against the Liu family [31]
Tang Xingde immediately went to ask Shen Can for instructions, and Shen Can directly instructed, "Go to the door and ask for someone."
If Chen Da in front of Mrs. Chen dies, then naturally there will be no one to hand over.
Tang Xingde thought about it and felt that he had to go there in person. After all, it was the Marquis's mansion. If he sent someone else to go, he might offend the Marquis if he didn't listen to what he said.
No matter what you say, it's not a good thing.
Tang Xingde tidied up and went to Wudinghou Mansion that day. Liu Ning was not at home and went to Tongzhou for business.
Liu Lingfan was now notorious because of that incident and did not dare to stay in the capital. The Jinwu Guards' mission was also withdrawn and he was given a free time.
Now he made a random excuse and went to Datong, not at home.
But Liu Lingzhou was back. With so many things happening in the house, Mrs. Chen also needed a man to support her at home, so she called Liu Lingzhou back.
Tang Xingde came to visit and Liu Ning was not there, so Liu Lingzhou accompanied Mrs. Chen to meet the guests.
Tang Xingde has always been a cautious person, and although he relied on flattery to get to the top, he also has some real abilities.
He also has the advantage of fawning over those with higher official positions than him, but will not look down on those with lower official positions than him.
In this way, even if everyone knows that he is fawning, they still treat him well.
And now, although the Liu family may be the prisoner in his hands, he will not come to investigate in a arrogant manner. Instead, he has a good excuse to investigate the case.
While the Marquis is away, it is certainly not in line with the rules for a foreigner to see the Marquis' wife, but there is a reason for the matter and he can abide by the rules.
Moreover, Mrs. Chen also has Liu Lingzhou as her companion, which is not considered irregular.
Tang Xingde greeted Mrs. Chen very kindly and respectfully, and praised Liu Lingzhou a few words, saying that he was young, promising, and knowledgeable.
Mrs. Chen had something on her mind and didn't want to talk too much with him. She asked politely: "Master Tang is here unexpectedly and must meet me, but what's the important matter?"
Tang Xingde felt that Mrs. Chen must have been asking questions knowingly. These wealthy ladies were all like this. They all put on a noble air when meeting outsiders, but in fact, they were just like that in the privacy of their own homes.
He smiled and cupped his hands, "It's my duty. Because of the need to investigate the case, there are a few clues involving the Hou Mansion, so I wanted to come and ask Madam for advice."
Mrs. Chen pretended to be surprised and said: "What clues can still be implicated in us? Our house has not been robbed by thieves."
Tang Xingdelian said it was true, but still stated what he meant, "That's right, this case is also difficult for us to handle. Generally, if there are some clues, whether they are useful or not, they have to be checked first, so as not to miss the useful ones. Then there is no regrets. In time."
As he spoke, he briefly talked about Shi Gandang's case, focusing on the contact person Chen Da and Chen Da. He concealed Chen Da's death but turned his back on Mrs. Chen. "An informant claimed that Chen Da She is Mrs. Chen's natal roommate, so I have come here today to inquire about her so as to clear up any suspicion."
"Nonsense, nonsense!" Mrs. Chen's complexion changed drastically, and she slapped her face on the table, causing the teacup on it to shake and make a crisp collision sound.
Tang Xingde watched her words carefully, and seeing Mrs. Chen's reaction so fiercely made him suspect that there was something fishy.
Experience told him that there was probably something wrong with Mrs. Chen.
