Although only close relatives and friends were invited, the next day, Rongguo Mansion was still full of guests.

Jia Jing's wife Chen and Jia Zhen's step-room You family of Ningfu all came over to help welcome and accompany the guests, so as not to tire the pregnant Wang family, and lest the old lady not be able to support it.

Yuan Chun found a very interesting phenomenon: many of the ladies who came to the banquet brought one or two daughters, and these daughters were about the same age as her, or slightly older than her by a year or two.

Because at home, Yuan Chun did not wear official uniforms, so these girls only greeted Yuan Chun with titles such as sisters and sisters. Wang Xifeng has been living in Jia's house, and Yuan Chun left all these sisters and sisters to her to receive them, and inspected everywhere inside and outside to control the overall situation.

Seeing Wang Xifeng's free advance and retreat, long-sleeved and good at dancing, some relatives said to Wang enviously: "I heard that Feng Yatou has been living in the house for half a year, and she has been reading and learning calligraphy with your eldest girl?" She also wants her daughter to follow Yuan Chun for a few days, so that she can gild.

Wang smiled: "What kind of book do you read?" It's just that the Yuan girl is messing around with the phoenix girl, if this is also worthy of being called 'reading', I am ashamed of them. ”

She changed to a comfortable sitting position and subconsciously touched her stomach: "I am heavy now, the old lady is old, and I can't manage the affairs of the family, so I asked Yuan Yatou to take care of it for a few days." Who knew that the girl was quite lawless, changed many old rules in the family, and blindly messed around, as if she wanted to turn the house upside down. I'm not afraid of the jokes of my relatives, I'm afraid that the Feng girl will be damaged by her, and I can't explain it to my sister-in-law! ”

So, don't stuff your daughter into my house! lest there be any trouble in the future that will bring down my daughter's reputation.

Everyone heard the meaning of her words, and they were a little unwilling, but what Wang said just now should not be disregarded.

There is only one "first-class doctor" in the imperial court! If her daughter does not have the opportunity and ability of "a good doctor", but she learns the style of "a good doctor", it may not be a blessing!

But I still can't help but feel a little sour!

At that moment, there were sour people, half-jokingly and half-seriously, asked Wang's sister-in-law and Wang Xifeng's mother Xie: "If the Feng's girl is damaged by her family's first-class female official, what should you do?" ”

Xie Shi was helpless, so he had to smile and say: "That girl in my family has been a sloppy and broken child since she was a child, and she can't get any worse anymore." Follow Yuan girl, only learn well, how can you be bad? Your daughters are different, I just took a look, one race is gentle and elegant. I'm not a fan of that daughter, so don't let my daughter spoil them first! ”

She must not say that her daughter will be "taken bad" by Yuan Chun or anything like that! Yuan Chun is the "first-class doctor" of the imperial court, a person who is extremely valued by the emperor and the queen, and has close contacts with several palaces...... How can such a character bring bad guys?!

Therefore, she can only belittle her daughter and give her a reputation as a sloppy child. Although this reputation is not very good for her daughter, she can only follow the power!

In addition, she also has a little calculation in her heart: Rongguo Mansion now has two brothers, one of whom is still her daughter's cousin, and she is the same age as her daughter...... Therefore, it doesn't hurt for a daughter to suffer a little grievance for her aunt and cousin!

Yuan Chun didn't know that she had become a sweet spot in the eyes of everyone, and many relatives wanted their daughters to mix with her for a while. Of course, it's best to be able to learn a little bit of ability! If you can't learn it, it's okay to plate a layer of gold! If it's not good, make friends with Yuanchun, and if you have something to ask for in the future, it's easier to talk.

However, the Wang family directly blocked these harassments for their daughters, making their hopes disappointed.

The cold dishes have been served, and when the banquet is about to start, Lin Zhixiao's family sent a girl to report Yuanchun in a hurry: "Aunt Lin said, tell the eldest girl to go to the kitchen." ”

Yuan Chun was a little puzzled: he only came back from the kitchen inspection half an hour ago, but Lin Zhixiao's family sent someone to call him to the kitchen at this time, could it be that something happened in the kitchen? She scanned the cold cuts and drinks on the table with the system, and after making sure that the things that had been served were not in the pool, she hurried to the kitchen.

Lin Zhixiao's family greeted him, and said uneasily: "Big girl, Mrs. Liu quietly told me just now that there are two hot dishes that have just come out of the pot that seem to taste wrong. She was afraid that something would go wrong, so she invited the eldest girl to come and take a look, so she was relieved. ”

The dish doesn't taste right? What are some of the factors that can cause a dish to taste wrong? Since Liu Niangzi reciprocated like that, it shouldn't be the "wrong taste" caused by cooking techniques!

This Liu lady was born with a good tongue and is very sensitive to taste. No matter what the dish is, she can tell what ingredients are used in the dish, whether it is new or not, what ingredients are there, and how it is probably cooked. Give her a little time, and she can still reproduce the dish exactly as it is. In the world of Yuanchun's previous life, Liu Niangzi is simply the future god of food!

When Yuan Chun sorted out the personnel files this time, he excavated this advantage of Liu Niangzi. At this banquet, Yuan Chun gave her an important task: to try dishes. The dishes prepared by the kitchen staff need to be tasted by Mrs. Liu and confirmed that the taste is correct before they can be served. If there is anything wrong with the dishes at the banquet, Yuan Chun Wei Liu Niang is asking.

Now, Liu Niangzi reported that there are two dishes that "taste wrong"......

Is it the spoilage of the ingredients? Encountering counterfeit goods from antiquity? Maybe...... What strange things are added to the dish?

Yuan Chun felt that it was possible that there was something strange in the dish! A while ago, she adjusted the positions of some people and moved the cake of some vested interests, and it was hard to ensure that no one was resentful and wanted to make trouble for her. Today is the birthday banquet of the cheap lady, and the banquet in the inner house is organized and arranged by her full responsibility, if there is an incident such as "collective food poisoning", she will be ruined!

Yuan Chun was in a somewhat dignified mood, and followed Qin Zhen into the tasting room. I saw that Liu Niangzi was frowning, staring at the two rows of hot dishes on a table in a daze.

"Is that all these dishes?" Yuan Chun asked.

Liu Niangzi nodded: "That's it." There is a ...... I've never tasted it before. It's a little spicy, but it's not like a spicy seasoning. ”

Yuan Chun nodded, picked up a little dish, smelled it, and tasted it again. Open the medical system at the same time and start the identification function!

it! It's croton oil!

Croton oil is poisonous! Although the amount of food in the dish is not too much, it is enough to make some people with weak constitutions diarrhea and collapse or even die. The cheap lady is still pregnant, and she can't get it!

It seems that she encountered the common plot of the house fighting article - the meal was drugged!

Do you want to be so vulgar?!

She complained wildly in her heart: The kitchen, the banquet or something, it is really a high-incidence area of house fighting accidents!

Fortunately, I had the foresight to arrange this Liu Niangzi to try the dishes! Otherwise, I would probably not have noticed that there was something wrong with the dishes until they were almost on the table. The dishes that were served were temporarily withdrawn, and everyone knew what was wrong. If relatives and friends attending the banquet see or hear something, it will be a big shame!

"The food is not clean, so find an empty bucket and pour it all into the bucket and seal it. Mrs. Liu went to the kitchen in front of her again and tried all the dishes. Yuan Chun directly gave a disposal plan, then turned around and left, walked directly to the kitchen, and said as he walked, "Tell the people in the kitchen to kneel on the spot, prohibit walking, and I'll check." Go and call Zheng Fu's family. ”

Lin Zhixiao's family immediately walked quickly with a solemn face to pass the word, and Liu Niangzi hurriedly went to the temporary kitchen of the banquet officials and guests to try the dishes.

The kitchen is smoky! In this era, there were no range hoods, and today's cooking tasks are quite heavy, and the air in the kitchen is not very good.

The kitchen servants were already kneeling on the ground, and the head of the kitchen said angrily: "Big girl, what mistake did I make to kneel?" If the food is delayed, what should I do? ”

Yuan Chun snorted coldly: "If the things you make are not clean, it is better to delay the serving!" Eyes swept over him, and he reported the names of two more dishes, and asked who made them.

A chubby middle-aged cook hurriedly kowtowed, and replied in horror: "It's made by a small one!" The chef looked at him with a frown.

Yuan Chun went directly to the fat cook's position, the medical system was fully functional, swept the things on the table, and directly took out a can of vegetable oil mixed with croton oil.

"Who was here just now? Who touched this oil? She dipped a chopstick in some oil, brought it to her nose and sniffed it. When she went to the kitchen half an hour ago, there must have been croton oil in this jar of oil!

The fat cook's name was Xin Lei, and he was panicking, and when he heard Yuan Chun ask who had come, he seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. Hurriedly said: "A small guy waiting in the front yard has come!" The little guy called Bao Wu, and said that there was a guest in the front yard who wanted to eat sugar steamed cheese, but because the kitchen in front of him didn't do it, Uncle Zhen asked him to come to the back and ask, see if there is any? Because there is a banquet at home today, there is no snack that does not last long. Bao Wu was entangled for a long time, and he asked us to do it, saying that it was not good to explain to Uncle Zhen. We're just busy, and we don't have time to pay attention to him. The little guy went after a while, could it be that there was something wrong with this oil? ”

Yuan Chun snorted and didn't answer, but asked, "Has anyone else been here?" Including those who work in the kitchen, has anyone ever approached your oil tank? ”

Xin Lei thought about it blankly, and finally shook his head: "No." ”

Yuan Chun didn't ask anything anymore. I looked around the kitchen again, carefully checked everything and confirmed that there was nothing wrong, and then said: "Take Xin Lei out and lock him up, tell someone to guard it, and the others continue to be busy!" Xin Lei's things are not allowed to be touched or used, and the dishes he made are shared with others. ”

Yuan Chun carried the can of vegetable oil mixed with croton oil, and when he came out of the kitchen, Zheng Fu's family happened to come.

Yuan Chun first said the results of the treatment of Xin Lei, and then handed the oil tank in his hand to Zheng Fu's family: "This can of oil is physical evidence, keep it well." If something goes wrong, I'm the only one who asks. In addition, he asked people to go to various portals to spread the word: if you see Bao Wu, take it immediately. Take heed, and when you see him, take him down. ”

He also said to Lin Zhixiao's family: "The kitchen is heavy, let another idler in, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless!" ”

Although Yuan Chun didn't explicitly say what was wrong with the oily vegetables, looking at her actions, who wouldn't have guessed that something had gone wrong in her diet? Lin Zhixiao's family was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and agreed repeatedly.

Yuan Chun called someone to invite Qiu Ningshuang and others to come. After all, Qiu Ningshuang and the others are palace maids in the palace, and it doesn't hurt to ask them to wait for them, but it is inconvenient to let them participate too much in the affairs of the Jia family. So before, she didn't let Qiu Ningshuang and the others follow her or interfere in this banquet. But now that such a thing has happened, of course, people have to make the best use of it!

After arranging these, Yuan Chun went to the temporary kitchen in charge of the officials and guests in the front yard to inspect the surroundings, and found nothing abnormal, so he breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that that Bao Wubacheng came for himself.

She arranged for Mrs. Liu to try dishes in the kitchen in the front yard, just in case.

On the way back to the inner house, Yuan Chun was thinking: how can I take Bao Wu as soon as possible and prevent him from causing more damage?

The more effective way is to wait for the rabbit, one is to guard the place where Bao Wu lives, and see if Bao Wu will go back; The second is to guard the banquet in the inner house. A person who deliberately poisoned will probably not miss the tempting scene of the poisoning of the crowd and the chaos of the army - that is his "fruit of victory"!

After Qiu Ningshuang and the others came, Yuan Chun gave such and such an order.

In the middle of the banquet, Zheng Fujia came to report: Catch Bao Wu!

Yuan Chun nodded quietly.

A food poisoning incident that could have caused a sensation in the capital has disappeared invisibly.

When the guests left one after another, Yuan Chun was thinking: how to make this matter the most valuable? Within a minute, she decided to use the topic to play and set up rules for those minions of the Jia family. Damn, it's a sick cat if you don't use your authority as a laborer!

Therefore, she was not in a hurry to send Bao Wu and the cook, but only said that today was a good day for his wife, and she didn't let the villain collide. asked Zheng Fujia to take care of the two suspects, don't call them dead or escaped, and don't ask them to collude to confess, and then send them out tomorrow. But she found a few people to interrogate, and she gradually figured it out in her heart. He also arranged for Qiu Ningshuang and Qin Zhen to take the servants of Jiafu to find human and physical evidence.

Yuanchun was not in a hurry to sleep that night, and it was the third watch. So she took her men, according to the small reports of some servants she had made before, and rushed straight to the den where the night watchmen were gambling, and took seven or eight drunken men.

"The Jia family paid the monthly money, and they originally asked you to come to the night. You're eating and drinking, and you're gambling, what kind of night are you on? If you want to live a leisurely life and go home by yourself, why do you have to stay in it and don't do anything with your monthly money? Yuan Chun gently picked up a few copper coins on the table, threw them back on the table one by one, and said with a smile, "The stakes are not small!" It seems that you are all rich men. No wonder I can't look down on this idea of the vigil monthly. ”

Those people were already frightened, and most of them had woken up, and they kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Yuan Chun was not in a hurry, and only asked people to guard these people.

The next day, many servants of Rongguo Mansion faintly heard about yesterday's turmoil, and they all looked a little trembling.

Dai Shan, Jia Mu and Wang, Jia Zhu, Jia Lian and others all sent people to ask, and Yuan Chun made an appointment and asked them all to come to the trial-of course, Wang is pregnant and a young woman, so there is no need to come, and he will report to her again. He also asked Jia Jing and Jia Zhen from Dongfu to come over.

When everyone has arrived, sit down in order. Yuan Chun wore a hat and sat down under Jia Lian, and then asked someone to bring up all the evidence and physical evidence.

was locked up overnight, the fat cook named Xin Lei was a little sluggish, but that Bao Wu seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, shouting all the way: "What royal law did I commit?" ”

Yuan Chun also ignored Bao Wu's clamour, and asked Xin Lei directly: What did Bao Wu say when he went to the kitchen at the luncheon yesterday? What was done?

Xin Lei was locked up all night and almost couldn't sleep all night. I also want to understand that I must have been plotted by this Bao Wu, and there must be something wrong with that can of oil. Now that Yuan Chun has asked about relevant issues, how can he hide it for Bao Wu? I told Bao Wu how to say that Jia Zhen wanted sugar steamed cheese, how she was rejected, and how she was entangled for a long time.

Jia Zhen looked shocked and hurriedly said, "I have never ordered such a thing!" Grandfather, old lady, big sister...... Daddy ......" called the important people of Rong Mansion and Ning Mansion one by one, and said eagerly, "You have to believe me!" ”

Bao Wu was also shocked, staring at Jia Zhen and said, "Uncle Zhen, it was obviously you who ...... yesterday."

Jia Zhen was so angry that she got up from her seat and was about to kick Bao Wu, but was grabbed by Jia Jing, who was sitting next to him.

"Zhen'er!" Jia Jing looked at him sternly and stopped his impulsiveness.

Jia Zhen couldn't help but tremble in her heart. He turned around and knelt down facing Jia Daishan: "Please Master Mingjian!" It's not a big deal to ask for a sugar steamed cheese, and if I do, I won't deny it! ”

He didn't know what had happened in the kitchen yesterday, but it had nothing to do with him! He must be skimmed off, or he will have another good fight when he comes home.

"Of course Uncle Zhen won't admit it! It's really not a big deal to ask for a sugar steamed cheese, but Uncle Zhen told me to go to the kitchen, not to ask for sugar steamed cheese, but to sprinkle salt! ”

Bao Wu looked open-minded, and Chao Daishan kowtowed: "Master, it was Uncle Zhen who gave me a few taels of silver, and asked me to go to the kitchen in charge of the banquet in the back house, and sprinkle a few more handfuls of salt into the dishes, I want to make the eldest girl who is responsible for arranging the banquet embarrassed, so as not to make her so proud!" The small prevarication was not enough, so I had to respond. It's just that after arriving in the inner kitchen, I didn't have the courage to start, so I went to report to Uncle Zhen after a while: The big girl is too strict, and the little one didn't find a chance to start! Uncle Zhen was helpless, scolded a few words, and then threw away his hand! ”

He kowtowed to Chao Daishan again: "Master, what the little one said is true!" Please check it out! ”

Jia Mu, Wang, Jia Zhu, and Jia Lian first breathed a sigh of relief. Then I wondered: If what Bao Wu said is true, he just sprinkled more salt into the dish, and it has not yet been sprinkled...... Yuan girl (sister Yuan) made such a big battle, is it too much of a fuss? Yuan girl (Yuan sister) doesn't look like such a person! They all looked at Yuan Chun with some confusion.

Jia Daishan knew that Yuan Chun was acting well, and his expression was very solemn from beginning to end, and he didn't say a word about Jia Zhen and Bao Wu's words.

Jia Jing looked at Bao Wu and then at Jia Zhen, hesitating in his heart. If Jia Zhen has a grudge against Yuan Chun, he believes it! If Jia Zhen sprinkled salt into the dishes at the banquet organized by Yuan Chun in order to take revenge on Yuan Chun, making Yuan Chun ugly, it would be difficult for him to categorically deny it! But what's the matter with the son's unlucky appearance of having no guilt and feeling like he's about to be dizzy? Was he wronged?

Jia Zhen was indeed about to be stunned! Damn, what kind of villain have I committed in the past two years? was first framed by Liu Ruyu's slut, and now he is slandered by a slave of Rongguo Mansion!

He solemnly knelt on the ground, raised his hand and swore: "Master, old lady, father, and ...... Big sister, I swear to God: If I have instructed Bao Wu to sprinkle salt into the dish, I will be destroyed by heaven and earth, and I will not die well! "He's never done this before, so it's a very sincere oath!

Yuan Chun coughed lightly, held back a smile to his mouth, and said with three points of ridicule: "Brother Zhen, please get up!" I believe in you about this. ”

Sprinkling salt into the dish, although it is a classic episode in the house fighting text, it is not like a "gentleman" style. What's more, what will be tried today is not to sprinkle salt into the dish, but to poison the oil.

Jia Zhen was stunned, never expecting that Yuan Chun was the first person to show that he believed in himself. He couldn't help but feel relieved, seeing that Dai Shan and Jia Jing both nodded at him slightly, he stood up, flicked the corner of his robe, and sat back in the chair. I didn't dare to say anything more.

Yuan Chun smiled and said to Bao Wu: "It's your turn!" ”

Bao Wu looked stupid: "What's the turn of the little one?" ”

Yuan Chun smiled and said, "It's your turn to swear!" Now it's a confrontation between the two parties, Brother Zhen has already made an oath, it's time for you to swear! She dragged out her tone and said leisurely, "I've seen immortals!" So I know that the saying that heaven and earth can learn from ghosts and gods is well-founded. If you want us to believe your word, why don't you swear it too? ”

Bao Wu's expression flashed: "If the little one makes an oath, will the big girl believe the little one?" ”

Yuan Chun said idly: "Not necessarily. First, it depends on how your oath is established, and whether there are flaws and loopholes; Second, we need to see what can be judged later. Some bold people may think that the gods are not idle and have no time to manage the affairs of the world, so they dare to lie to the gods. She leaned over slightly and looked at Bao Wu who was kneeling on the ground with a slight sense of pressure, "Do you make an oath?" ”

Bao Wuyi gritted his teeth and swore: "The little one also swears to the sky, if the little one says half a lie, the sky will be destroyed, and he will not die!" ”

"No, no, no......" Yuan Chun shook his finger at Bao Wu, "Your oath can't be issued like this!" Regardless of the truth, it is sentence by sentence, half sentence and half sentence, how is it calculated? Therefore, you have not made this vow well. I'll give you one more chance, and you'll do it all over again! Remember, if you do it again in your vows, you won't have another chance! ”

Dai Shan and the others couldn't understand why Yuan Chun was entangled in the issue of vows, you looked at Yuan Chun, I looked at Yuan Chun, but they didn't speak.

Bao Wu was helpless, so he gritted his teeth and swore again: "The little one swears to the sky: if there is a lie just now, it will ...... Heaven and earth will be destroyed, and it will not be good to die! After finishing speaking, his body couldn't help but tremble slightly, as if there was a pair of cold eyes looking at him in the sky above his head.

Yuan Chun sighed lightly and smiled slightly: "Okay! After taking an oath, you can officially start hearing the case. ”
