Chapter 36: The Search for the Bottle
"From my experience, that rice was indeed poisoned." Liu Weng said.
"You know this?"
"I don't understand, I packed some of the rice back and fed it to the dog in the house, and the dog died after ten minutes."
"Then do you have any leftover food, I'll take it back and check it."
"Yes, I'll find it for you later." Li Weng took out a small iron box, and the paper inside the box was wrapped in the rice.
"I'll give you this box."
Yun Qinghan took the box and put it in the pocket of his clothes, which was also a big gain.
"I can tell you for sure that I don't have anything to do with the queen, after all, it won't do me any good, I still want to continue to mix in the palace." Li Weng said sincerely.
"Then why can't you tell me about it?" Yun Qinghan asked.
"Everything I say is true, I don't want to offend you, and I can't offend the queen either, I'm also in a dilemma." Li Weng shook his head helplessly and said.
"Do you know that the deceased official drank alcohol before he died?"
"I think about it, indeed, there is a smell of alcohol on his body, but I don't know when to drink it." Li Weng carefully recalled the situation at that time, "At that time, he was holding a wine bottle, and I remember that the two of us greeted each other at that time. ”
"And then?"
"And then all of a sudden he was lying on the ground, and I asked him what had happened, and he said that and he died."
"Do you know where that bottle is?"
"At that time, I locked down the scene, and if there was no accident, the wine bottles were still on the wooden table in the back kitchen."
"Okay, let's get here today, and remember not to mention to anyone about the two of us meeting today, otherwise you will be the one who will be hurt in the end." Yun Qinghan stood up, things have found a certain direction of development so far, and the next thing is to find the wine bottle.
"Okay, then the prince walks slowly." Liu Weng arrived in the courtyard with Yun Qinghan, there were many people, Yun Qinghan directly used light skills to the roof and then went out through the back door.
Liu Weng is still in a state of flux, he doesn't know how he was involved in this matter, and he is about to be unable to stay in the palace if he accidentally stops.
"Who was that person just now, it doesn't look easy to mess with. Are you in trouble out there? Liu Weng's youngest concubine walked out wearing red cheongsam-like clothes.
"No, don't think about it so much, today's matter must be kept secret, so that everyone in the house is sealed." Liu Weng held his wife's hand, this was the concubine he had just married into the door not long ago.
"Mmmm, I know, I'll arrange this matter." This concubine is not very old, she is relatively small, only about 150, but her appearance is still very good, which is also the most fundamental reason why Li Weng married her.
Not only in modern times, but also in ancient times, good looks also have a certain advantage, but the most important thing to lose is the word "character".
Li Weng was sure that Yun Qinghan was gone, so he entered the house with peace of mind, and he didn't want to have anything to do with the officials in the imperial court.
Once the relationship changes, it is he who hurts the most.
Yun Qinghan secretly came to the place where the imperial kitchen was cooked, the soldiers here were not too strict, after all, it was not of much value, and it was enough to ensure that it was safe and sound.
Yun Qinghan was not ready to walk in openly, since he chose to quietly insert the case, he should follow a certain way.
Seeing that the patrol also has a certain amount of time to change shifts, it is to take advantage of this opportunity that Yun Qinghan sneaks in.
He took the key to the back kitchen that Liu Weng gave him and went in, and then looked for the wine bottle, the light was a little dim, and Yun Qinghan groped carefully.
Finally, on a wooden table, the bottle was found, and the mouth of the bottle was round and had a ceramic pattern.
Yun Qinghan picked it up and shook it, confirming that there was still wine in this bottle, and Yun Qinghan was much more relaxed.
He found a bottle cap of about the same size and put it on it, and then took it back to Ruan Xiaoyan to see what was in the wine.
Yun Qinghan looked at the soldiers coming and going at the door of the kitchen, and then looked for a good opportunity to go out, but it was not as simple as imagined.
The layout here is quite complicated, it is easy to get in, but it still takes some effort to get out.
At this time, a soldier patrolled here, "Why is the lock in this back kitchen opened, is someone coming in?" ”
As he spoke, the soldier pushed open the door to look inside the back kitchen, and the door creaked open, and the soldier slowed down and slowly entered.
Yun Qinghan quickly closed the door, and without waiting for the soldier to make a sound, Yun Qinghan had already knocked the soldier unconscious, and then went out wearing the clothes on his body.
When he came out, Yun Qinghan changed into his original body, this situation was too common for him, and it was good to get used to it slowly.
Yun Qinghan didn't worry that it would be more troublesome to deal with things after the soldier woke up, because the soldier had already completely collapsed before he had a chance to see Yun Qinghan's face clearly.
Yun Qinghan has now also obtained the poisoned rice and the bottle of wine, and he is still a little excited to see that everything will be revealed.
Ruan Xiaoyan cleaned up the house when she had nothing to do, and it was the first time she felt how happy it was to have such a big house.
However, if there is only one person in an empty room, it will also seem very cold and less human.
Seeing the familiar figure walking towards her, Ruan Xiaoyan put down the tablecloth in his hand that he was about to put on, "How is it, are there any traces?" ”
Yun Qinghan nodded, "Things have indeed progressed a lot this time, and you also have a share of the credit." ”
"yes, should you give me a reward or something?" Ruan Xiaoyan looked at Yun Qinghan and asked.
Yun Qinghan thought for a moment, "Okay, then what do you want?" ”
"I want money." Ruan Xiaoyan blurted out.
Yun Qinghan looked at Ruan Xiaoyan and smiled, "You are the most direct girl I have ever seen, do you like money so much?" ”
"I can't talk about liking, there is a good saying, money is not everything, but no money is also impossible."
Ruan Xiaoyan also knew in his heart that he didn't have a job here now, and he might not even be able to eat one day, so he would save more money while he could like it now.
"Okay, I'll give you as much as you want, and the most important thing now is to tell the cause and effect of these things, so that you can know what is in them." Yun Qinghan said to Ruan Xiaoyan and took out a bracelet.
"For you, do you like it?"
Ruan Xiaoyan took the bracelet, "Is this specially bought for me?" ”
"I passed by the store and bought it." Yun Qinghan said.
Ruan Xiaoyan put this white bracelet on her hand, this size can be said to be just right, although the design is simple, it also has a unique temperament.
Two little birds stood on the branches of the tree and looked at all that was in nature, their eyes full of longing.
