Chapter 541: Everyone Is Poisoned!
They were about to go out in Kochi Prefecture, and the housekeeper hurriedly came in, saying that there was an accident in the front yard.
"What's wrong?"
Kochi asked, glaring.
Today is the 100-day banquet of Gao Mianmian, and not only many guests from the Gao family came, but even the people of the town also attended. In this case, if something really happens, I'm afraid it will affect the entire Ningwu Town!
"I don't know, I don't know what's going on, the guests are shouting that they have abdominal pain, and some are vomiting and diarrhea!"
The housekeeper Xu was also frightened, and replied breathlessly.
"What?!"
Kochi Prefecture was dumbfounded, and subconsciously asked, "How can this be?" What about the people of the outer world? ”
"And so it is!"
The housekeeper was busy.
Kochi stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Zhou You'an quickly supported him, and said in a deep voice, "Uncle, don't worry!" The first priority is to get a doctor here and see what is going on. ”
"It makes sense."
Kochi held his forehead and cheered up.
He was about to order someone to ask for a doctor, when he heard Song Jingshu say, "Uncle, wait a minute!" ”
"It's an anomaly, and I feel like something is wrong. If you invite an ordinary doctor to come, you can't solve it, in my opinion, you should ask Dr. Chen to take a look, maybe he knows what's going on. ”
Dr. Chen's best thing is detoxification.
Today, so many guests all have abdominal pain and some are vomiting.
In this case, why is it so like poisoning?
Hearing Song Jingshu's words, Kochi County nodded after a little contemplation, "Jingshu is reasonable!" ”
So, I went to invite Dr. Chen.
Sure enough, as Song Jingshu expected, today's guests, as well as the people outside the door, are all poisoned!
"Poisoning?!"
Kochi County's expression changed, and he hurriedly asked, "Today's meals are all provided by my Gao family, how can this good person be poisoned?" ”
Dr. Chen didn't answer, but calmly took out a roll of silver needles from his arms. He walked to the table next to him, and no matter which plate of food he was inspecting, he could see that the tail of the silver needle was pitch black!
It doesn't matter what the table is on!
Seeing this, Kochi Prefecture and others were frightened.
Even Song Jingshu couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Today, because of Gao Ningxi's affairs, several of them have not yet entered the table.
Fortunately, he has not yet entered the table, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!
Song Jingshu's vest was cold, he looked at Zhou Youan with a scared face, swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help but grab his hand.
"Tall, fortunately, it's not a difficult poison, it's just a laxative. It's just that the laxative is a bit heavy, which is why the guests react so strongly. ”
Dr. Chen replied.
"Bold, bold!"
Kochi County was so angry that he trembled, and shouted at the housekeeper, "Go, you go and bring the mother-in-law in the kitchen and the maid who handles these meals immediately!" The officer will interrogate him personally! ”
The housekeeper was busy.
Soon, he came out with dozens of mothers-in-law and more than 20 maids.
Today, there are many guests in the Gao family, and all the meals are the responsibility of these mothers-in-law and maids.
Zhou Youan ordered people to help Dr. Chen detoxify these people, and Kochi County directly took these mothers-in-law and maids to interrogate them in the open space behind the main courtyard.
Without waiting for Kochi County to speak, these mothers-in-law and maids wailed.
"Master, we didn't do it, we were wronged, master!"
"My lord spares his life! Give us a hundred guts, and don't dare to do this, sir! ”
"The lord is wronged!"
“……”
The injustices rang in everyone's ears, and Song Jingshu couldn't help but feel a little upset.
It seems that these mothers-in-law and maids also know what is going on.
"Not you?"
Kochi snorted heavily, "If it weren't for you, who would it be?!" ”
"Today's meals are all in your responsibility, and no one else has handled them! If the laxatives weren't in your meals, why didn't you have anything to do with it, but the guests had an accident?! ”
Kochi's words are not unreasonable.
Today's meals are all handled by these mothers-in-law, and these mothers-in-law have to taste how it tastes, salty, sour and spicy.
But why, these mothers-in-law are fine, but the guests outside have an accident?!
There is only one possibility, laxatives are added to the meals after they have been tasted by the mothers-in-law.
Again, before the food is served on a plate, it is sprinkled directly into the pot.
In this way, the mother-in-law will not be poisoned, but all the guests outside will not be spared.
Song Jingshu looked at several mothers-in-law whose faces were as white as earth, and kept kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy, and began to think in his heart.
These mothers-in-law, almost all of whom are old people who have been serving the Gao family for many years, will definitely not do such a thing...... They don't have the motive, they don't have the guts, and probably they shouldn't be doing it.
And these maids......
In Ningwu Town, the Gao family is not an ordinary family.
Today's events are not trivial.
If such a thing is found out, these maids are afraid that their families will be implicated.
Therefore, it should not be what they did.
Kochi County interrogated for a while, and when he saw that nothing could be done, he was so angry that he directly ordered that these mothers-in-law and maids should be executed.
"I want to see how hard your bones really are! Once you are sentenced, if you still shout innocent, this official believes that today's matter has nothing to do with you! ”
After that, Kochi Prefecture ordered people to fight directly.
Fifty boards per person, if you can bear it, you believe that she is innocent.
Fifty is not a small number.
The 20 boards are still easy to kill, let alone the 50 boards?
With such a heavy punishment, Kochi County has never issued such an order on weekdays, so it can be seen that he is also angry today.
Fortunately, Dr. Chen's departure is absolutely reliable.
After Dr. Chen boiled the medicine and fed it to the guests outside one by one, the abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea were quickly relieved, which made Kochi Prefecture breathe a sigh of relief.
Turning his head, Kochi Prefecture directly ordered, "Give me a heavy blow!" ”
As soon as they heard that they were going to be hit by fifty boards, several people directly rolled their eyes and fainted to death.
Seeing this, Song Jingshu couldn't help frowning, and whispered to Zhou You'an, "Why do I think that today's events seem to be different?" ”
"Hmm."
Zhou Youan nodded, "But there are no clues at the moment, and I can only cut from these mothers-in-law and maids, so I can't tell if I can find out any clues." ”
It seems that Zhou Youan also agrees with Kochi County's approach.
However, fifty boards can cost people's lives.
When the time comes, even if something is found, the wronged person will die innocently!
Suddenly, a figure flashed in Song Jingshu's mind.
It was a figure she saw when she and Zhou Youan just got off the carriage, and they felt strange in their hearts at that time......
Today's Gao family is poisoned, could it be related to that figure?!
