The housekeeper led Qin Niang to the courtyard where Bu Shuyuan lived, and as soon as she entered it, the maid who knelt on the ground in the house, and the Qi family was also there.

"Brother and sister, you came just in time, I don't know what's going on, and all of a sudden that's it." As soon as Qi saw Qin Niang, he immediately greeted her, grabbed her hand, pointed to the person lying on the bed and said.

Qin Niang's eyes followed the direction of her finger and glanced inside, and she lowered her voice and asked, "What's the matter?" Wasn't she okay yesterday? Someone else saw her go out. ”

Qi shook his head: "I don't know, just this morning, with a breakfast effort, the maid in this courtyard came to report, saying that she was foaming at the mouth, looking like she was going to die, I hurriedly asked people to invite a doctor, it took a long time to hang a breath, and now I haven't woken up, and I don't know if it can be better." ”

Qin Niang looked at the woman lying on the bed again with a little surprise, to be honest, she had thought about thousands of possibilities, and she never thought that she would end this trip to the east in this way.

"The doctor said that she was poisoned, but I asked all the people in this courtyard, and they all said that they didn't know, and I didn't find anything after a long day of interrogation, so I sent someone to your house, and I heard that you were called into the palace by the queen's mother, so I had to wait for you to come and take a look." Qi said, his face full of guilt.

Qin Niang has to be busy with the delivery and manufacturing progress of firearms all day long, and she has to be assigned tasks by the emperor and queen from time to time, so she is too busy to see herself, so she can't watch it.

Thinking of this, Qi was annoyed and blamed himself.

"Sister-in-law doesn't have to feel guilty, presumably, she was abandoned by her accomplices." Qin Niang whispered, "Since those people have the ability to sneak into the capital for so many years, it must be very easy to kill a person." ”

It's also easy to do something about eating.

It's just that if this person is not lurking inside the Gu family, then he has extremely high martial arts, and he can easily sneak in and sneak out quietly after being poisoned.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to do such a thing in this Gu family, where there were many master guards.

"Sister-in-law has carefully examined it, did they leave the food in the middle when they served Bu Shuyuan food?" Qin Niang asked.

Qi shook his head: "No, they all said that they never left the food at hand, and they never left these things when they brought the food out of the kitchen until they entered this house, so it is unlikely that they were led away and poisoned halfway." ”

And there are no problems with these people.

Well, the problem is in the kitchen.

She also asked, there are only a few mothers-in-law in the kitchen, and they are all born in the family, and the deed of the family is in her hands, and these people dare not do such a thing in the Gu family.

"Since these people don't have a problem, and the people in the kitchen don't have a problem, what about the people who buy them?" Qin Niang asked, "Could it be that there was a problem with these foods from the time they were brought in?" Is there a problem with what they eat, grandfather? ”

Qi shook his head: "At first, I heard that there were people in this Ruoda Mansion who were poisoned, and I was afraid that the people in the family would also suffer because of this, so I asked the doctor to check on it, everyone is fine, and the food in the courtyards is also fine, only this cloth girl's food is poisonous, you say, isn't it strange?" ”

Strange indeed.

The other party seems to have calculated exactly what Bu Shuyuan will eat, and then poison which foods, if this is the case, then that person must first understand the eating habits of these people in the Gu Mansion, and then control Bu Shuyuan's eating habits, which ones will not be eaten by the Gu family, and Bu Shuyuan will inevitably eat.

Then, Bu Shuyuan's move is a sure thing.

However, as long as she thought of someone observing and understanding the eating habits of all the people in the entire Gu family so meticulously, Qin Niang felt a chill in her back.

Being stared at in the dark by such a group of people, if those people wanted to harm the lives of everyone in the Gu family, it would be an easy matter.

"What kind of poison did she eat? Did you find out? Qin Niang asked.

Qi said: "It's just that it doesn't find out that it's a headache, if she eats something special, it's probably that crisp tea." This Bu Shuyuan grew up in the south since she was a child, and the girls in the south like to drink crisp tea at breakfast, but there is no poison in this crisp tea. ”

So, this is puzzling, where does this poison come from and how is it poisoned?

Qin Niang's expression was stunned when she heard this, and then she thought of something, pulled Qi to the side courtyard, sneaked away from the maid, and asked in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, do you know how Your Majesty was poisoned?" ”

Qi Shi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said blankly: "Didn't you say that it was food that restrained ...... at the beginning?"

Before he finished speaking, Qi suddenly reacted, the emperor's poisoning was originally secret, and ordinary people didn't know about it, but the Gu family knew about it, after all, Concubine Mi sent ginseng soup to the emperor every day and made beauty tricks for the emperor, which caused the emperor's health to get worse and worse.

Otherwise, even if he established the crown prince, Song Yu wanted to control the court situation so quickly, I am afraid it would be impossible.

In a flash of light, Qi Shi figured this out, and she looked at Qin Niang with wide eyes, as if she was asking her if she was as she guessed.

Qin Niang nodded and said: "That's what I mean, so, you might as well find a reliable doctor to check it, what kind of food is in the crisp tea, and what food is easy to produce poison after eating, as long as this point is clear, you will know how Bu Shuyuan was tricked." ”

Qi's eyes lit up, and then he held her hand and said, "You're still smart, fortunately you're here, otherwise, I'm still here to catch the blind!" I'm going to ask someone to get a doctor. ”

With that, she hurried out with her skirt in hand.

Qin Niang saw that there was nothing here that needed her help, so she raised her feet and walked towards the old man's courtyard.

Old Man Gu was bitten a little, and it was no big deal, but it was rare to drink tea and play chess at home, and he was very comfortable with his grandson.

When Qin Niang went, his old man was grabbing chess pieces with Gu Yun.

"Grandpa, I am willing to lose the bet, you have regretted your chess three times, and I can't let you say anything this time." Gu Yun complained dissatisfiedly.

"I'm your grandfather, what's wrong with you letting me take a few steps?" Old Man Gu said as a matter of course, "Don't forget, who taught you chess skills." ”

Gu Yun retorted dissatisfiedly: "Although it is right to say that enlightenment is taught by you, but at your level, at most, you can pass two moves with those old stinky chess baskets in Beijing, and I can't become a stinky chess basket with you?" In the end, the second aunt gave me a few tricks, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to mix when I went to the academy. ”

Old man Gu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, this stinky boy, now that his chess skills have improved, he doesn't know what his surname is, right, he dares to dislike him.

"Say it again, I promise not to kill you." Old Man Gu said with a glare, but his tone was full of warnings.

Gu Yun saw Qin Niang enter the courtyard gate, and then boldly stuck out his tongue at him, and said: "You are a stinky chess basket, and don't let people say it, I am not taught by you, where can you teach such an excellent grandson as me." ”

After speaking, he reacted so quickly that Old Man Gu raised his hand and wanted to knock his head into the air, and his beard suddenly trembled with anger.

Gu Yun ran to Qin Niang and hugged her legs: "Second aunt, you came just in time, you tell grandpa, who taught me." ”

Qin Niang pursed her lips and looked at him and smiled, then looked at the angry old man Gu, and shook her head helplessly, this pair of grandparents and grandchildren, it is not good if they don't make trouble for a day.

Ying'er sat beside Old Man Gu obediently, supporting her chin with both hands, originally just watching the fire from the other side, but when she saw that her mother came to pick her up, she suddenly bounced up from the small stool like a small cannonball, and ran towards Qin Niang.

"Alright, you two don't mess around." Qin Niang looked at Old Man Gu speechlessly, "Grandfather, you are a handful of old people, what do you care about with a child." ”

However, playing chess with a doll of a few years old and regretting chess is something that only Old Man Gu can do, and he is not afraid to say it to make people laugh.

Old Man Gu snorted unconvinced: "This kid is about to go to heaven after learning two tricks, and he doesn't know how to respect the old and love the young." ”

Gu Yun had a backer, and he was not afraid of him at all, he hid behind Qin Niang, sticking out his tongue and making faces at Old Man Gu from time to time.

Old Man Gu looked at him with a sneer: "How long do you think your backer can let you hide, she is here to pick up Ying'er, and she will leave in less than half a cup of tea, you say, after she leaves, how will I treat you?" ”

When Gu Yun heard this, he couldn't help but shudder, and then his eyes rolled, and he smiled at him with a smile: "Grandpa, I know that you have always been broad-minded, and you have a lot of adults, don't worry about your grandchildren." ”

Old man Gu snorted, arrogantly turned his face away, Gu Yun hurriedly ran to him, beat his shoulders and rubbed his legs, his eyes smiled like moon buds, and his mouth said sweetly: "Grandpa, I'll let you next time, what's the big deal, isn't it just regretting chess?" You are my grandfather, regret the little thing. ”

Qin Niang's eyes widened and she looked at Gu Yun, who was trying her best to pat Ma Shunmao, and she finally understood who Ying'er's small and medium-sized mouth learned from when she saw someone and smeared with honey.

Dare to love is taught by this master.

Is......

Old man Gu was not really angry, he arrogantly served it for a while, and then he was coaxed by Gu Yun's various promises, Gu Yun poured him a cup of tea, and sent it to him with both hands.

Gu Yun was grateful.

Qin Niang said in her heart, will this child grow into an embroidered pillow that can only pat on the back and have weak willpower? It seems that she should let her daughter play with him less in the future, so as not to lead her daughter crookedly.

After the grandfather and grandson laughed for a while, Old Man Gu sent the juniors away, and watched Qin Niang start to get down to business.
