Chapter 1354: Secrets

PS: Thank you for the tip!

The topic went back to the original place, that is, Cui Zhengyuan couldn't believe how Tang Biao used a chef to murder Situ Jingyuan.

Don't look at the food made by this chef entering Situ Jingyuan's mouth every day, as if it was easy to poison.

In fact, Situ Jingyuan's security level is not at all similar to that of a national leader.

If his food contained toxins, he would not even be able to survive the initial security procedures. Tang Biao has always followed Situ Jingyuan, and it is impossible not to even know this.

"What Tang Biao instructed you to do, you must be honest and clear." For this chef who murdered Situ Jingyuan with his own hands, Cui Zhengyuan didn't have any good face at all.

If it weren't for the fact that he had to learn the truth of the matter from his mouth, Choi Jung-won wouldn't mind sinking him into the sea right now.

After experiencing the tragedy of the destruction of his family, the fat chef has obviously made up his mind to die. However, before he dies, he must let Tang Biao, who killed himself, launch the most profound revenge.

Cheering up, he told Cui Zhengyuan a creepy secret.

If you want to start from the source, it even goes back to the early Ming Dynasty 600 years ago.

At that time, it was the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, seized his nephew's country after the Battle of Jingjing and ascended to the Ninth Five-Year Honor.

And when he launched the Battle of Jingjing, the small Vietnamese country far away on the border took advantage of the war in the Central Plains to repeatedly violate the border.

Therefore, after Zhu Di ascended the throne, he soon attacked Vietnam.

In the memory of later generations, the only general responsible for pacifying Annan during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty was Zhang Fu. But I didn't know that when the Ming Dynasty attacked Annam for the first time, the general who led the army was Qiu Fu.

According to historical records, Qiu Fu resigned from the position of leader in Annan because he was not accustomed to the water and soil, so he finally became ill and uncomfortable.

But from the mouth of this fat chef, Cui Zhengyuan learned another result.

The cause of Qiu Fu's illness was not at all due to the lack of adaptation to the water and soil. It's poisoning. The people who poisoned him were Annanite.

Because of Mingjun's bravery, the Annan people couldn't stop it at all, so they came up with a way to assassinate the boss.

But Qiu Fu is surrounded by clouds and heavily guarded, where is it so easy to assassinate? So the most likely way to succeed is to poison it.

The Ming army conquered the city in Annam, and naturally captured many Annam women.

Qiu Fu is a leading general, guarding Annan, so he naturally needs people to serve. And these Annan women naturally got the opportunity to get close to him. There is also a channel for poisoning.

At that time, the poison used by the Annamites against Qiu Fu was a poison that was rare even in the southeastern peninsula, and the conditions under which it could attack were very harsh.

The most basic ingredient for this poison is a plant called Nepenthes molyte, named after the Mauru Mountains that grow in Borneo.

Although this plant feeds on insects and looks terrifying, it poses no threat to humans in itself.

The people who really discovered that this plant had a poisonous function were the Siamese people.

The ancient Siamese people dried the pitcher plant and ground it into a white powder. It forms the raw material for making poison, and when you want to poison others, you can use it as you like.

The point is. The powder itself does not possess any toxicity. Even if the powder alone is taken by someone, there is no threat.

Even if you rely on the most high-tech modern testing equipment to inspect, you can't tell what is dangerous in it.

So how exactly does this Siamese flour work? If it weren't for someone in the know, I am afraid it would not be known at all.

This Siamese powder is non-toxic in itself. When you encounter something like a plum tree or a plum tree, it immediately has a unique effect.

The mixed medicinal properties of the two will slow down the metabolic function of the person in contact with it, and the function of internal organs will decline. In the end, people slowly deteriorate due to their physical functions, aging prematurely, and eventually dying.

Because it is impossible to detect the hidden truth by medical means. Therefore, it will only make people think that the poisoned person is due to internal organ failure, insufficient blood supply to the heart and respiratory disorders.

That is, Situ Jingyuan's final external embodiment is like this, but who would have thought that he was actually poisoned?

The fundamental reason why the Annamite people poisoned Qiu Fu and did not put Qiu Fu to death in the end was because there was a war at that time.

In the context of war, every move of important people is of concern to countless people. When Qiu Fu felt unwell for the first time, he was immediately strictly protected.

In this way, there is no chance for the Annanites to want to poison continuously.

In the end, Qiu Fu couldn't bear it because his body couldn't bear it, so he had to return to the dynasty after illness, and then the young Zhang Fu took his place.

On his way back to Beijing, Qiu Fu passed through Gui Province and happened to meet a local doctor who was familiar with the mysteries of Siamese powder.

After the rejuvenation of this local doctor, Qiu Fu picked up a life from the ghost gate. However, feeling the strange and terrifying methods of the Annan people, Qiu Fu was unwilling to go back, so he parted ways with the conquest of Annan.

However, it is not a trivial matter that the DPRK and the Central Committee will be poisoned. Therefore, the whole story of this incident was recorded in detail by Jinyiwei, and even sent special people to study the function of Siamese powder.

Later, the Ming Dynasty fell, and Jinyiwei also disappeared. This record of Siamese powder fell into the hands of Chen Jinnan, the chief helmsman of the Heaven and Earth Society, and he used it as a strange method to assassinate high-ranking Manchu officials.

Heaven and Earth will be the same as Hongmen, so there are records of Siamese powder in Hongmen.

However, later, the Manchu government has been making every effort to suppress organizations such as the Tiandihui and Hongmen, leading the righteous people to flee and be in danger. As a result, the records of Siamese powder were constantly lost, and eventually even the highest level of the Hongmen did not hear of it.

No one knows how Tang Biao regained the secret recipe of Siamese powder, which he regarded as a treasure and was finally applied to poisoning Situ Jingyuan.

It must be known that the Annan people plotted to assassinate Qiu Fu back then, just begging the other party to die quickly, so the dose used was very large, so Qiu Fu quickly reacted.

Tang Biao tried not to find a trace, so he instructed the chef to use only untraceable portions in each meal. Tong guò accumulated a lot, and after accumulating over time, he finally killed Situ Jingyuan.

By the time he found out that Situ Jingyuan was unwell, he was actually powerless to return to the sky.

After listening to the chef's narration, Cui Zhengyuan couldn't help but sneer. "You said Uncle Situ was poisoned by a mixture of Siamese powder and plum blossoms? But how could there be such a thing as plum blossoms in his food? ”

This is a flaw, because no matter who it is, as long as it is a normal person, there is no consumption of plum blossoms.

The chef shook his head and gave the answer. "It's not plum blossoms, it's carvings made of wood from plum trees."

Without waiting for Cui Zhengyuan to ask, he said it all in one breath. "Mr. Situ likes the carving of plum blossom wood, because the plum trees are strange and craggy, not as neat as other trees. Because of the different postures, it seems that the weather is myriad. This kind of carving is everywhere in Mr. Situ's courtyard, so the air he breathes has always had the fragrance of plum blossoms. So just mix Siamese flour into his food and you're good to go. ”

Cui Zhengyuan is a suspicious person by nature, so once he becomes interested in something, he will definitely get to the bottom of it and figure out all the links before he stops.

"You are Uncle Situ's cook, in order to help Tang Biao in his abuse? It stands to reason that you don't have the motivation to do so. At this time, Cui Zhengyuan was like the most professional detective, cautiously looking for the suspicious points of this fat chef.

Although he is Situ Jingyuan's chef, and Tang Biao wants to kill him, there may not be any inevitable connection.

It cannot be ruled out that this guy deliberately framed him in order to take revenge.

You must know that Tang Biao, as a high-level member of Hongmen, does not have too many ulterior secrets. Maybe he did something tricky and was broken by this guy, so he was killed.

In particular, the Siamese flour that this chef refers to is something he has never heard of. People have always been skeptical of the unknown, and Cui Zhengyuan is no exception.

In the face of his questioning, the chef did not hide the slightest thing, and told the whole process one by one.

This fat chef's name is Zheng Jiasheng, and he is a native of Kaiping, Guangdong Province, China. Ten years ago, I learned a superb Cantonese cuisine skill, and I came to the United States to make a living under the recommendation of an acquaintance.

It just so happens that the ancestral home of the Situ family is also Kaiping, and the old Situ Jingyuan loves the taste of his hometown for ten minutes. But the chef who had been in charge of cooking for him had returned to China due to the death of his wife.

Situ Jingyuan, who couldn't taste the taste of his hometown, couldn't swallow it, and lost a lot of temper for it.

In line with the idea of sharing his master's worries, Tang Biao found Zheng Jiasheng and invited him to serve as Situ Jingyuan's personal chef.

Zheng Jiasheng, who has just arrived in the United States, is actually very hard, and if his superb cooking skills are in China, I am afraid that he will be hired by many big hotels with high salaries. But the taste of the Americans doomed him to be unpopular.

Being able to serve as Situ Jingyuan's personal chef and have a good salary is of course a dream good. So Zheng Jiasheng agreed without the slightest hesitation.

But what he didn't know was that all the information about his family background, interpersonal relationships, etc., had been investigated by Tang Biao clearly, and had become a lever that the other party could use.

Zheng Jiasheng, who was bent on making money, didn't know that he was not stepping into a magnificent social class, but a painful ghost gate.

He is just an ordinary person, who only wants to make some money and live a good life, without any noble ideals and unyielding ideological realm.

When his life was threatened, he naturally became an accomplice, which also laid the foundation for him today.

For more than a decade after that, he carefully put Siamese powder in Situ Jingyuan's diet according to the slightest dose. (To be continued......)
