Manager Hou frowned slightly, nodded and said, "There is no one else here, so it's okay to talk about it." In fact, most of the governors have been married for many years, and the lady has never had children, which is also a very boring thing for the old marquis. He smiled bitterly: "This kind of thing, the old marquis is not good to ask the governor often, so ..... From time to time, he wrote to the old slave to inquire about the situation. ”

Qi Ning nodded slightly, suddenly got up, poured a cup of tea in the past, and handed it to Manager Hou, who was stunned and flattered, hurriedly took it with both hands, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, Master Hou." ”

Qi Ning asked: "After five years of marriage, but he didn't give birth to a child, don't say that it is a family like Jindao Yutai, even if it is an ordinary family, it is also a matter of impatience." Boss, what is the reason for this? ”

"This .....!" Mr. Hou wanted to speak and stopped.

Qi Ning said solemnly: "Old manager, I know the relationship between you and the Grand Duke, the old marquis will leave you by the side of the Grand Duke, naturally he also trusts you, the Grand Governor can completely hand over the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to you, and there is not much trust in you, I naturally believe in the people who can make the old marquis's father and son trust him so much." I asked you to know about these things tonight, your old man should understand what it is for, although the death of the governor of Lantai seems to be no big problem, but if you think about it carefully, there are too many strange places, I was entrusted by the emperor and the old marquis to come to the East China Sea to investigate the truth of the matter, so naturally I dare not slack off. ”

Mr. Hou picked up the teacup, took a sip, and nodded slightly: "The old slave also knows that the old slave came because he was entrusted by the old master, so ..... These things that shouldn't have been said just now were told to Master Hou. ”

Qi Ning stretched out his hand and patted Manager Hou's arm, and said warmly: "I know that the old manager is also suspicious of the death of the Grand Governor, but the facts are there, and I can't find anything wrong, so let's try our best now to find out if there are any other possibilities, if the old manager can help me, it will definitely make things twice as effective with half the effort." ”

Mr. Hou held the teacup in both hands, thought for a while, and finally said: "Master Hou, in fact, in the past few years, for the sake of Mrs., the old Hou has not worried less, the old slave here.... It's also a lot of thought here. It's okay for the first two years, but when they got married for three years, the old marquis couldn't bear it anymore and sent someone to send it..... Sent medicine! ”

"Delivering medicine?"

"It is said to be a panacea that can give birth to children." Manager Hou sighed lightly: "That medicine doesn't look unusual, the old Hou instructed the old slave.... The old slave put it into the lady's meal, and before the lady ate, someone tried it, but the medicine was not harmful, and it was only effective for the lady. The old marquis's orders, the old slave can only do it, but ..... But for some reason, Madame seemed to have discovered something strange, and once there was a big liver fire, and as soon as the old slave put the meal on the table, Madame ..... It's all overturned, and.... And let the old slave do it himself....! ”

"Madame didn't say anything else?"

"Nope." Manager Hou shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Since then, I haven't mentioned that matter, old slave.... The old slave saw that the lady noticed it, so .... Since then, no medicine has been put in the food. ”

"Are you sure Madame noticed something wrong with the food?"

"At that time, the old slave still remembered that the lady's eyes and expressions obviously said that there was something wrong with the food." Manager Hou frowned and said, "The old slave must have noticed this at that time. ”

"That'..... Except for the old marquis and the old manager, does anyone else know about this? ”

Manager Hou thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "The old slave is careful here, and no one will notice it, but I don't know if the old Hou Ye has told others." ”

"Does the Governor know?"

"After all, it was the medicine in Madame's meal, although I didn't think to tell the Governor at first, but..... But I always felt that it was not good to hide from the Metropolitan Governor, so I ..... Once, I mentioned it to the Governor. Manager Hou sighed: "Now that I think about it, I shouldn't have said much at that time, the old slave's mind at that time was to let the Metropolitan Governor know that Mrs. had taken medicine, and it was okay..... You can have more room together. ”

Qi Ning knew that Manager Hou was being honest with himself, after all, such a thing really couldn't be put on the table, and the boss could say such a thing, just hoping that he could find out the clues to the suicide of Tantai Zhilin.

"That's as it should be." Qi Ning said: "The boss is also for their good." Then he frowned and said, "There are very few people who know about this matter, why does Madam know?" The old manager also said that the medicine is colorless and odorless, and it can't be detected at all, why can Mrs. detect it? Whether..... Someone told her secretly? ”

"But apart from the old slave and the Grand Duke, no one else knows." Chief Manager Hou was puzzled: "The Metropolitan Governor and Madame respect each other like guests, and they usually respect Madame very much, such a thing, knowing that Madame will definitely be unhappy in the future, Dadu Governor should not tell her." ”

Qi Ning thought for a while before he said: "The old marquis will definitely not let others know, and the old boss has not revealed the news here, and most of the governors ..... It is impossible for the Metropolitan Governor to say to outsiders, so ..... So how did Madame know, it's really strange. I really felt that this thing was a little bizarre, and after thinking about it for a while, I said: "Boss, Mrs. gave birth to a little boy half a year ago, is it because of the effect of the medicine?" ”

"No way." Manager Hou immediately shook his head and said: "Madame has been taking the medicine for less than a month, and she hasn't taken it for more than two years since then, even if there are some effects at that time, it is impossible that it has not dissipated after two years." ”

Qi Ning knew that what Chief Hou said was reasonable, and after thinking about it, he finally said: "Since Madame did not give birth to a little prince because of the effect of the medicine, it proves that whether it is the Metropolitan Governor or Madame, there will be no problems with the body itself, in this case, why did you give birth to a child in the fifth year after marriage?" Staring at Manager Hou, he said in a low voice: "Boss, outsiders won't know the reason for this, but the boss should know something." ”

"This .....!" Manager Hou frowned, the corners of his eyes twitched, he lowered his head, and did not speak for a while.

Qi Ning sighed: "I know that there are some things that the boss can't say, I don't feel compulsive, in the final analysis, I came to the East China Sea just to find out the truth, and after returning to Beijing, I can give an explanation to the old marquis." The old manager knows better than me that the old marquis has high hopes for the governor, and even puts the future of the Tantai family on the governor, but the governor passed away like this, and the words are ugly, and the walk is not clear, if the truth is not clear, how can the old marquis accept it? ”

When Manager Hou heard this, he suddenly raised his head, grabbed Qi Ning's hand, and said with some excitement: "Master Hou, the old slave told you, but ..... But you have to promise the old slave that the next words must not be revealed to the public. ”

"Don't worry, the boss, I'm just trying to find out the truth, once it comes to the name of the Tantai family, I will be tight-lipped and never divulge a word." Qi Ning said solemnly.

When Mr. Hou heard this, he let go slightly, and said with a wry smile: "Master Hou, Mrs. committed suicide, which the old slave never expected." Last time, the old slave said that the lady took out her own jewelry collection and asked the old slave to distribute it to everyone, although the behavior was strange, but ..... But the old slave didn't think that Mrs. would follow the Metropolitan Governor at that time, and even today, the Lady committed suicide for the Metropolitan Governor, and the old slave ..... The old slave was also surprised. ”

Qi Ning asked: "The Metropolitan Governor and his wife are deeply affectionate, the Metropolitan Governor passed away, and the Lady followed and lived and died together, which is not an incomprehensible thing, it can only be said that the Lady cares about the relationship between the husband and wife with the Metropolitan Governor, why does the old manager think about this..... Unconscionable? ”

"Because the relationship between the Governor and his wife is not good." Manager Hou sighed lightly and said with a wry smile: "The two of them respect each other like guests, and when they get along, they both treat each other as guests. ”

Qi Ning's body shook, and his brows locked slightly.

"After the Metropolitan Governor took over the Governor of the Water Division, all his thoughts were on the Naval Army, and before they got married, this Governor's Mansion was just a decoration, and the Metropolitan Governor sometimes didn't come back for more than half a year." Manager Hou said in a low voice: "The old marquis has set a family matter, and the governor of the capital cannot disobey, five years ago, he followed the instructions of the old marquis, returned to Beijing to complete the marriage, and less than three days after the marriage, he took his wife to the East China Sea to return." Since then, the lady has been settled in the Governor's Palace, and the Governor still lives in the barracks.....! ”

"You mean..... The two have just got married, so if they are separated? Qi Ning was surprised.

Mr. Hou: "Mrs. has a low-key temperament, and she doesn't talk much on weekdays, she is the wife of the governor, so naturally she is not easy to show up, she stays in the governor's mansion all day long, the governor does not come back, and she will not send someone to invite her back, Master Hou, the old slave said something from the heart, at that time, seeing the governor so cold to Mrs., I felt that the governor should not do it, but this kind of thing between husband and wife, I am a slave, so naturally I don't want to say anything." ”

"In this way, Madame has never conceived a child, and it has something to do with the neglect of the Grand Duke?" Qi Ning asked in a low voice.

Mr. Hou: "The first half year is true, after the marriage returned to the East China Sea, in half a year, the governor only came back three times, and each time he came in a hurry, and his wife didn't say a few words, and left in a hurry, so get along, Mrs. failed to conceive a child, that is also a matter .....of course." After a pause, he said: "The old slave was left behind by the old marquis, so naturally he can't watch it, but the old marquis has been waiting to hold his grandson, so ..... So the old slave sent a secret letter to the old marquis and told the old marquis about it. ”

"How should the old marquis deal with it?"

"The old marquis thinks he came to send a letter to the governor." Mr. Hou: "In the next six months, the governor will come back twice a month, but ..... They only stayed for one night and left, and every time they came back, they stayed in the study, and they didn't go back to the lady's room until midnight, and they left ..... before dawn! ”

Qi Ning didn't expect that the relationship between the husband and wife of the company would be so bad, he didn't know what kind of psychology the relationship between the husband and wife was, but judging from the facts described by Mr. Hou, this couple could not talk about the deep love between the couple at all.

If a man really likes a woman, he can't wait to stay together every day, even if he is busy with military affairs, he will try his best to spend time with the woman he loves, but he obviously has this condition, but he still snubbs Mrs. Tantai, and under the intervention of the old marquis, he can still only see him twice a month, so cold, even if Mrs. Tantai is docile, I am afraid that I am dissatisfied.

Although he is the commander of tens of thousands of naval troops, the East China Sea Division has not experienced any wars in recent years, except for guarding against bandits, and the money and food equipment of the imperial court have never been cut off, plus there are Shen Liangqiu and a general in the naval division, it is impossible for Shentai Zhilin to be busy and not even have time to get along with his wife, everything can only show that Shantai Zhilin really did not take Mrs. Shantai to heart, or rather, Mrs. Shantai is not the woman that Shantai Zhilin loves.
