2161 Chapter 2160-general medicine
Apart from the master and servant of the Wang Residence, even Bai Baozhu’s family of four and the servants they brought along had been checked. There were dozens of people, big and small, and no one had any new scars on their hands.
“Your Highness,” master Bai San spoke again,”are you sure the marks you saw could hurt someone’s hand? You can’t just randomly guess based on your imagination!”
Gu Xin glanced at third master Bai and her face darkened.
Zheng Qiu found a piece of skin under the nails of Bai Shijie’s corpse. He must have had a dispute with someone before he died, but no one in the Bai family was injured. So, what was with the piece of skin?
Gu Xin had also seen the piece of skin that Zheng Qiu had picked up earlier. It was definitely human skin and nothing else.
The other members of the Bai family also looked at Gu Xin. It was obvious from their eyes that they wanted an answer.
“May I ask who in the Bai Manor is proficient in medicinal knowledge?” Gu Xin asked.
According to Zheng Qiu, not only were there scurf under his fingernails, but there was also a slightly less toxic drug in the stomach of the deceased, Bai Shijie. Although Bai Shijie’s death was not due to poisoning but asphyxiation, the murderer could not have killed him so quietly without poisoning him.
The Bai family members looked at each other. Bai Baozhu said, ” “Princess Xinxin, when my elder brother was alive, he was weak and ill for a long time. I’ve never heard of the others.”
Third master Bai looked at Bai Baozhu in disgust. A married daughter was like water that had been poured out. He had doted on this little sister for nothing, helping an outsider.
Wangfei also nodded,”boss does know a little about medicine, but he is a little awkward.”
what about the people who served the Prince when he was alive? ” Gu Xin asked again.
The Bai family members looked at Zhang Shi and Bai Shiying.
At this time, Zhang Shi had not recovered from the shock of losing her son, and her whole person was numb.
Bai Shiying’s expression was a little dark as he stood up and walked into the hall. “Please forgive me for asking, but Your Highness, are you suspecting the people around father when he was alive? Was the cause of my brother’s death poison?”
the cause of death wasn’t poisoning, ” Gu Xin said. but there were some poisonous drugs left in his stomach. The cause of death for master Bai was suffocation.”
The Bai family members were terrified. This person was drugged first, and then smothered to death without anyone knowing. Who was this? Such vicious thoughts.
Bai Shiying held back his tears and said,”Your Highness, when my father was alive, he had an attendant and a manservant by his side. They were father and son.” After my father passed away, the father and son were sent to take care of the manor. He only comes back once a season and should only be back in late June.”
“Then, does the father and son have any good friends in the residence?” Gu Xin continued to ask.
Bai Shiying shook his head. I don’t know. I was still young when they left.
The Queen sighed. Princess Xinxin, can you tell what kind of poison it is? if you can, let’s search the house. Since the poison is light, the culprit might still be alive.”
“Mother!” The three Bai brothers shouted in unison, their faces full of reluctance.
“Hmph, could it be that the three of you have something shameful to hide?” Wang Fei frowned.
