General, the lady escaped again

"Is there really such a ridiculous thing?"

Everyone stopped eating and just listened to the gossip.

The little kids didn't understand what was going on. They just knew that their parents weren't going to feed them anymore, so they just used a spoon to concentrate on eating.

"The city lord and Taohua's biological mother had only a one-night stand. After Taohua's biological mother became pregnant with Taohua, the city lord secretly sent her out of the mansion until Taohua was born."

"The mistress of the house didn't know about this. Taohua and her mother had been living outside the city until Taohua's mother died of illness. Then Taohua went to find the city lord."

"When the city lord saw Taohua, he arranged for her to be sent to the eldest daughter as a maid."

"Until the City Lord's Mansion was occupied and the City Lord's family was destroyed."

Manager Bai glanced at Ji Xiaomu and told her the truth in a low voice.

"She put those people in there, didn't she?"

"Or maybe she is the mastermind behind this."

Ji Xiaomu raised her cup and took a sip of tea. She had a hunch about this guess.

Maybe it's true...

"..."

Manager Bai was stunned by Ji Xiaomu's guess. He wanted to deny it, but suddenly he thought of something.

"Someone is coming."

"Meet the madam, steward."

A secret guard appeared and knelt in front of Manager Bai.

"Give me Taohua's information, along with the City Lord's Mansion being invaded."

"Yes."

The secret guard disappeared immediately, and after a while he brought what Manager Bai needed.

After reading it once, he sent the information to Ji Xiaomu.

Mother Ji flipped through the pages and when she looked up again, she exchanged a glance with the silent Steward Bai.

"What the lady wants..."

"It's really possible."

Manager Bai pointed at the information in front of Ji Xiaomu.

Taohua’s mother…died of illness, but it was due to excessive use of tonic medicine.

The body can't stand getting weaker and weaker.

She didn't know until her death that she died from these tonics that were "beneficial" to her.

In other words - he was killed intentionally.

The person who brought the tonic was none other than the city lord.

The city lord has always wanted to solve this mistake secretly, so he has been using this kind of chronic poison to harm Taohua's mother bit by bit.

In the end, the mother died and Taohua entered the City Lord's Mansion.

"Does she know how her mother died?"

Mother Ji looked at Manager Bai and asked.

Manager Bai shook his head.

"I can't answer that question."

After all, there is no way to prove the answer that you only know in your heart.

Mother Ji nodded and looked at Fang Chen.

"Who owns the art building in the west of the city?"

Fang Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.

"I only know that it was a man called Crazy Scholar."

Manager Bai said respectfully.

"You didn't investigate him?"

Ji Xiaomu asked curiously.

"Nothing to check."

Manager Bai was also helpless. How could he investigate a person whose identity information could not be found?

"It was like he appeared out of nowhere, without any information."

"He said he was a crazy scholar, that's all."

Manager Bai also felt overwhelmed when he met this person.

After all, he had just said that the Bai family had such a tight network.

I turned around and encountered a tough one.

"Origin unknown, identity unknown."

Manager Bai felt slapped in the face, but this guy was just so evil.

"How to find him?"

Ji Xiaomu asked.

Manager Bai thought for a moment.

"He only shows up at the meeting once a month. We don't know anything about him at other times."

Manager Bai has arranged time for everyone in the Chamber of Commerce, and it must be arranged once a month.

One is to achieve harmony between the east and west of the city.

The second purpose is to know all the developments in the west of the city so that they can be prepared.
