Song Caiwei saw that she didn't believe it, so she tilted the wine bottle and poured a little flower to brew it.

Baihua Brew was brewed for her by the family, Lan Xiang just thought about a pity, but when she saw the white foam bubbling out of the ground, she covered her mouth in surprise, "How can this be?" Why is this happening? ”

"Please, confess your sins quickly, don't be pretentious, okay?"

The Wang clan on the ground roared, like a fierce tiger trying to break out of the cage.

Lan Xiang shook her head and said, "Impossible, the slave family has never used it, so where does the arsenic come from?" ”

Cao Xiu felt a little headache when he saw that they were in a mess, he looked at Wang Xiancheng on the side and said, "Send a few people to Miss Lanxiang's embroidery room to search to see if there are any poisons such as arsenic." ”

Wang Xiancheng nodded in agreement.

Cao Xiu continued: "By the way, which pharmacies in our Liyuan do we sell arsenic? ”

In ancient times, arsenic was not only used as a poison, but also used as medicine, antiseptic, insect repellent, and rodent extermination.

But its toxicity is too strong, although the Qi government allows private trading, but also strictly controls it, only in the officially designated pharmacies, the people can buy it, and, when buying, you have to register your real name and indicate the purpose of use.

Wang Xiancheng thought for a while and replied: "Yes, the Ximen Medical Hall in the west of the city, the lower officials will call someone to inquire." ”

"Well, the sooner the better." Cao Xiu nodded, then walked up to Lan Xiang and said to her, "That, this girl ......"

Lan Xiang glanced at him, almost knelt down, and said sadly: "My lord, the slave family is wronged. ”

Cao Xiu waved his hand and said, "Okay, whether you are wronged or not, please cooperate with us and go to the Yamen." ”

"However, the slave family still has homework in the afternoon, and the Oiran Contest in three days is very important to the slave family......" Lan Xiang gritted her teeth, knowing that Cao Xiu would not be able to agree, but she still wanted to struggle in her heart.

Cao Xiu said solemnly: "This is not good, even if you get married tomorrow, you have to go to the yamen first, and when you find out the truth, it will not ......be too late to let it go."

Lan Xiang pursed her lips, nodded, and went back to the county government with the official who escorted her.

At this time, her appearance is even more endearing.

Cao Xiu waited for Lan Xiang to go away before he walked up to the Wang family on the ground and asked, "Who have you offended recently?" ”

Wang said: "No, my husband is good to everyone......

Oh, that is to say, on the surface, there is no offense.

Cao Xiu thought about it and continued to ask: "Just now the shopkeeper said that your father-in-law supported Miss Lanxiang at the beginning, why did he change his mind later?" ”

Wang thought for a while, shook his head and said: "How can I, a little woman, know about men's affairs, but the folk woman heard that it was said that it was Xianggong and a very good friend of him who had a good relationship with the Qiyun girl in Yichun Courtyard, and the two Qinglou didn't want to compete for the Oiran, so he hoped that my Xianggong could pay to support the Qiyun girl." The relationship between the two is not ordinary, and Xianggong is naturally a little hesitant. ”

"And who is this friend?"

"His name is Xia Changsheng, he left Liyuan a few days ago and went north, and the adults want to find him, I'm afraid it will take some trouble."

Cao Xiu nodded and said, "Okay, I know, you go back first, and when the case has a result, then send someone to tell you." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, several officials who were pressing the Wang family stood up, and the Wang family also got up, bowed down to Cao Xiu and said: "Yes, yes, don't bother the adults to handle the case, the eyes of the women were scratched by the fox spirits, and I didn't recognize the adults, and I hope that your adults have a lot of ......."

Even if she admits her mistake, she doesn't forget to slander a Lanxiang girl.

Cao Xiu knew that this was called the eternal enmity between Xiao San and the original partner.

"Okay, the county knows ......"

As soon as Lan Xiang walked away, Wang also left.

Cao Xiu looked at Wang's distant back and asked the omniscient money shopkeeper, "What is the relationship between this woman and Boss Ma?" ”

The shopkeeper thought for a while and said: "I remember that when the two of them first got married, they were still like glue, but in the back, because Boss Ma has a good temper and is obedient to the Wang family in everything, so the Wang family has become a little arrogant, and in the back, it is even more out of control." ”

Cao Xiu was suspicious in his heart: "Lan Xiang killed the horse boss, maybe because the two sides didn't negotiate later, and if it was killed by the Wang family, then it may be because of love and hatred......"

"My lord, we should carry Ma Teng's body to Yizhuang first." Wang Xiancheng, who was behind him, saw that Cao Xiu had not spoken for a long time, so he made a suggestion.

"Well, let's do it right away." Cao Xiu came back to his senses, nodded, walked to the table, took the white-glazed plum bottle in Song Caiwei's hand, turned around in his hand, and when he turned to the other side, he saw a picture of two children playing by the river.

This wine bottle is also a physical evidence, Cao Xiu asked the official to put it away, and then walked out of the guest room with Song Caiwei and them.

In the corridor, when passing by the next room, Cao Xiu stopped again.

The money shopkeeper looked at him and said, "My lord, what's the matter?" ”

Cao Xiu suddenly asked, "Who was in this room last night?" ”

The money shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "This is an empty room, and I was going to set it up next month......

Cao Xiu touched his nose and said, "Let's go in and have a look." ”

There's nothing to see.

This new knowledge of the county is really a difficult lord to serve,

The money shopkeeper muttered in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, "Eh, ...... well"

He pushed open the door and reached out to invite Cao Xiu in.

As soon as I stepped into the room, it was empty, nothing.

Cao Xiu looked around, and then quickly walked to the window.

Song Caiwei saw that he was suspicious and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Cao Xiu pushed open the window, glanced down, and then said, "Well, it's nothing, I just think this room is a little strange...... Money shopkeeper, no one hid here last night, right? ”

The money shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Where will anyone hide, what can he do when he hides?" ”

After speaking, his eyes lit up, "My lord, don't you want to say ......?"

"Well, it's nothing, it's me who is too careful......"

Cao Xiu seemed to see something, but he didn't say anything, and after closing the window, he took the people away.

Before leaving, he also instructed the shopkeeper to say: "These days, the restaurant will not be open for business......

The money shopkeeper said with some pain: "The villain knows this." ”

When I left the restaurant, the officials who went to the Ximen Medical Hall and Wanhualou came back.

Cao Xiu learned from them that Miss Qiyun of Yichun Courtyard had bought arsenic once ten days ago, Wanhualou had also bought it once, and Boss Ma's wife, Wang, had bought it once half a month ago.

"Not only that, according to the villain's inquiry, Miss Lanxiang has not never used arsenic, she asked for a bag of ...... from the warehouse of Wanhualou a few days ago."

After a servant finished the report, he didn't forget to remind him.

Cao Xiu was shocked when he heard this, "In other words, Lan Xiang is lying. ”

Song Caiwei glanced at her, "Let's go back and ask her ......"
