The castle owner kept walking inside, with Feng Jiuer following closely behind.
Long Feiyan, Zhao Yusheng, Jian Yi and Xiao Yingtao walked in a few steps and then stopped and stood on both sides without moving forward.
The castle owner went over and took the ingot from an old man inside, and knelt down in front of the corpse placed at the far end.
After three bows, the castle master stood up and put the ingot in his hand into the fire.
During the whole process, he remained quiet and ignored the two people who just spoke.
Feng Jiuer stood beside him the whole time, not daring to make any unnecessary movements.
The deceased is a big person, and the customs of each place have their own characteristics. She is an outsider, so it is necessary to be cautious.
After the castle master paid homage to Mr. Liang, he stood up and faced everyone present.
"I can understand everyone's feelings, but Miss Feng is not the murderer. Someone else poisoned her."
"Is there someone else?" The man who just spoke looked at the castle owner and frowned.
"Yes." The castle master nodded firmly in response, "Miss Feng saved the old castle master's life."
"I brought her here now just to see if she can find out what kind of poison everyone has."
"Did she really rescue the old castle owner?" an elderly woman asked excitedly.
"Yes, Granny Chen." The housekeeper stepped forward, looked at the woman who spoke, and nodded, "Miss Feng is a miracle doctor. She really saved the old castle master."
"The castle owner has confirmed that she is not the one who poisoned her. There is no need to look at Miss Feng with hostile eyes."
"Miss Feng didn't come here to prove her innocence. She just didn't want outsiders to sow discord between us and them."
"Everyone must know that once this battle breaks out, the ones who will benefit will definitely be the bandits nearby. We must not fall into the trap."
The steward's words made everyone fall into deep thought, and everyone's eyes on Feng Jiu'er and other outsiders began to change.
The castle owner sighed lightly and said in a low voice: "I will definitely give everyone an explanation for this matter."
"Three brothers of the Liang family, my condolences! I will not let your family suffer injustice, let alone let outsiders succeed!"
As soon as the Lord of the Castle finished speaking, the people kneeling around him began to whisper.
"I didn't expect that she really saved the old castle owner."
"Yes, is she still a miraculous doctor? Didn't the doctor say that the old castle master..."
"Could it be that someone else really did this?"
"Maybe it really wasn't them."
"The castle master said it's not the case, so it shouldn't be the case."
"Oh, the three Liang brothers are really pitiful!"
"Who is so cruel? There are young and old, and..."
Before the discussion in the hall had completely subsided, someone began to sob again, and the crying continued, and the hall was once again enveloped in sadness.
Suddenly, a man stood up.
"Fortmaster, since you believe it was not them, I will not doubt that twelve people died in my family overnight. I, Daliang, will definitely avenge this."
The man standing up is Lao Liang's eldest son, and everyone usually calls him Daliang.
Daliang's father died, as well as his wife, two sisters and several children. It was so miserable that half of his hair turned gray in one day.
"Lord of the Castle." Erliang also stood up.
His condition was the same as that of Daliang. Even if his hair was not gray, he looked very haggard.
"Master, how can we find the murderer? As long as you tell us, we will listen. No matter what, I will avenge my family!"
Sanliang knelt in front of his wife, whom he had been married to for less than a year, without saying a word. Looking at him made people want to cry.
"Fortmaster, I want to see the scene of the incident, or... one of the deceased." Feng Jiuer's voice sounded in the hall.
It seemed that there was nothing wrong with the scene of the incident. The castle owner had already blocked it off, and only a few brothers could enter.
However, not everyone can understand the matter of looking at corpses.
As soon as Feng Jiuer finished speaking, the palace became quiet.
After a while, Daliang turned around and walked towards a corpse.
"If you want to see it, look at the body of my eldest son. He is an upright man and has nothing to fear!"
Daliang waved his hand, and the two brothers outside turned around and left. After a while, they came over with their frames.
Daliang looked back at the fort master and asked in a deep voice: "Fort master, where are you going?"
"Go to the back hall, it will be more convenient." The castle master responded in a low voice.
"Okay." Daliang bent down, personally picked up his "eldest son" and put him on the stretcher.
The white-haired man sent the black-haired man away, and the castle owner and Feng Jiuer also walked out together.
In the grotto on the other side, the hall had already been cleaned up, leaving only a pot of tea and a person kneeling in the hall.
The castle master went in, and Feng Jiuer and others also walked in.
"Fortmaster." The kneeling slave raised his eyes and glanced.
"Tell me more about what happened yesterday? Everything must be explained in detail." The castle master went over and sat down on the main seat.
"Yes." The little slave nodded, looked back at the people standing around, and then lowered his head.
"Yesterday, as usual, I prepared dinner with the three ladies, and I also watched them eat."
"Then the eldest lady asked me to go back and there was no need for me to clean up, so I left."
"Many times, the three ladies don't need me. The eldest lady asks me to leave, and I go back to my place."
"Later, after dinner, I came over. At that time, I saw the old castle owner and Mr. Liang drinking tea and chatting."
"The third lady saw me coming and sent me back again. Castle Lord, I really don't know what happened."
Feng Jiuer walked around the hall, came to Xiao Nu, and looked down at her.
Xiaonu raised his eyes to look at her, then lowered his head.
"Master of the castle, does every household in the castle have a slave?" Feng Jiuer asked softly.
"No." The fort master responded softly, "Mr. Liang made great contributions to the construction of Nanman Fort. His three sons also devoted a lot of effort to Nanman Fort."
"Of course their family can have one or two slaves. My wife is responsible for these things, and I rarely interfere."
"Yeah." Feng Jiu'er nodded, "Then I wonder if this little slave grew up here, or did he enter Nanman Castle later?"
Xiaonu raised his eyes, met Feng Jiuer's gaze, and immediately shook his head: "I... came last year."
"I am an orphan. Fortunately, the castle owner's wife brought me back, so I don't need to live on the streets."
"Master, I didn't do this. The Liang family has always treated me as a family member. How could I drug them?"
"They really died miserably. Castle Lord, you must find the murderer and bring him to justice."
"You said it was the castle master's wife who brought you in?" Feng Jiuer asked softly.
"Yes." Xiaonu looked at her and nodded, "The castle owner's wife is my reborn parent. If it weren't for her, I would have died in the mountains."
