Chapter 152

"The little girl will say everything, as long as she knows, she will say it.

When Zheng Gongzi came, it was already night, because he usually only ordered me, and my mother didn't look for anyone else.

As soon as I got on the boat, I waited for him to drink and eat, and everything was normal.

He was drinking to the end of the boat, and he was going to write poems with his good brother. Oh yes, there are also people who come with me, namely Zhao Gongzi and Li Gongzi, and the three of them usually spend the most time together. ”

After Lingling finished speaking, she lowered her head and stopped talking.

"I'm going to find out the situation of the two sons right away, let's bring them over for questioning, and I'm calling that mother over, who prepared your meal that night?"

Chu Jiao asked.

Lingling thought about it carefully: "Recently, a new chef came, and my mother saw that his skills were good, and today is all the things he will be responsible for." ”

"Very well, bring the cook with you."

It was late at night. Qin Shao looked at Chu Jiao and was slightly sleepy, so he said, "If you feel sleepy, let me deal with the matter here, and come back when you wake up." ”

Chu Jiao just wanted to say no, but was killed by Qin Shao's eyes, she unconsciously shrank and nodded: "Then I'll go to sleep first." ”

The first to bring in were my mother and the cook.

This chef is not good-looking, but he is a good dish to cook when he hears his mother.

"King Qiyu, my lord, the food on the ship has already been brought over."

The people at the bottom took it and carefully checked the dish for problems.

"There are only some medicines in this dish and wine, which are not harmful to people's bodies, but can make people happy for a short time." Chu Jiao secretly got up and checked it and said.

Qin Shao's face dropped suddenly, and Chu Jiao touched her nose with some weakness.

But it goes without saying that I understand, it's that kind of medicine.

"Why do you put that medicine?" Qin Shao looked indifferently at the two people kneeling below.

The cook didn't speak, but my mother had a look on her face, you know.

"Oh, don't you know this, the guests are happy, and our business is easy to do, isn't it, but we are all good citizens, it is absolutely impossible to hurt Zheng Gongzi, and the cause of Zheng Gongzi's death must have nothing to do with us."

Qin Shao listened to her noise and made a silent gesture: "Where is the medicine." ”

"Medicine, the medicine has just run out, and I'm afraid it's gone recently."

Qin Shao snorted softly: "I see that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin." ”

Saying that, he waved his hand, and immediately someone came up to control his mother and wanted to torture her.

Immediately, the screams of my mother could be heard in the house.

The other side. Thousand Ghosts and Luo Min returned to their residence.

Luo Min said with some concern: "Chu Jiao is very smart, will she find anything?" ”

At this time, the thousand ghosts hugged her slender waist from behind, and said indifferently: "Don't worry, this is our chassis, as long as you don't say it, no one knows about the things here." ”

Luo Min turned around, held his face with both hands, looked at him seriously, and kissed him gently: "What do I think about you, did you only know it on the first day?" ”

"Well, I will love you even more in the future..."

As he spoke, the thousand ghosts picked her up and walked towards the bed.

......

Before Chu Jiao's matter was investigated, Xiuying immediately came to report that Li Gongzi and Zhao Gongzi both died on the way back.

This thing can be said to be like a bombshell.

The three sons are all famous people in the realm of Yaotai, but they didn't expect to die like this.

Chu Jiao couldn't fall asleep all night because of this matter.

As soon as Zheng Siyuan woke up the next day, he learned that the sons of the other two families were all dead.

This time, I don't even have to sleep.

"Lord Zheng, I don't think this matter is as simple as imagined, a dancer, I'm afraid not so bold to do this kind of thing so blatantly.

As for saying that Zheng Gongzi fell into the water, it is understandable, but the other two sons also suffered, I am afraid that something is wrong. ”

Chu Jiao said.

Li Gongzi and Zhao Gongzi's families are rich people, and they came to report to the official at this time.

The men below carried the two bodies over and found that they had died in exactly the same way.

"With such a way of dying, it seems that the death of these three people should be done by the same person." Zheng Siyuan said.

"What did you find out about the source of that medicine last night?"

Chu Jiao asked.

Xiuying's speed was very fast, and he bowed down and replied, "It's the medicine from the Chen family's pharmacy." ”

Chu Jiao nodded, it turned out that she was checking the ingredients of the medicine last night.

She found that the medicine contained an ingredient of chronic poison, which was very difficult to detect, and even more so if it was mixed in the dishes.

What's more, in a chaotic place like the Red Mansion, who can check whether it is true or false.

"Let's go, go to the Chen family's pharmacy."

Chu Jiao said.

"By the way, that Lingling girl from yesterday, don't kill her."

Chu Jiao instructed before leaving.

Chu Jiao and Qin Shao came to the Chen family's pharmacy together in disguise.

"Boss, we are from the Red Mansion, and we want to buy some of that kind of medicine like you, as for the price..."

The boss is obese, and when he saw the gold ingot, his eyes were straight, he hurriedly picked up the gold ingot and knocked it with his teeth, and when he saw that it was real, he was full of smiles.

Busy hiding the gold ingot in his cuffs, he smiled on his fat face: "Good to say, easy to say." ”

He turned his head and was about to get the medicine, but suddenly stopped, he turned his head and wondered: "Listening to the accent of the two, it doesn't look like a local accent?"

I don't know which Red Mansion it is? ”

Boss Chen's face was a little cautious.

Chu Jiao smiled: "Oh, that's the case, we are from Yihong Mansion, we used to have a branch building in the Imperial City, and now we come back to stay for a while and take our mother out to buy it." ”

Boss Chen's suspicions dispelled a little: "How much?" ”

"Are you Boss Chen looking at it? You should know how much I'm worth a piece of gold, but I don't think your shop is big, so how much medicine can you have. ”

She showed a somewhat suspicious look, and Boss Chen looked proud, tilting his chin slightly: "As long as you want it, we don't have it." ”

"Okay, let's go get the medicine."

Boss Chen nodded, then turned around and went to the back room to get the medicine. 、

Chu Jiao and Qin Shao were waiting in place, and Boss Chen came out of it after a while, holding a very small package in his arms.

"Guys, it's not an official errand, is it?" Boss Chen still seemed a little uneasy.

"You just put your heart in your stomach, and you still don't worry about our affairs?" Saying that, Chu Jiao took out another gold ingot.

Boss Chen had nothing to say at the moment, and showed what was in his arms.

A small package, it doesn't look like a lot.

Boss Chen was so secretive, Chu Jiao was even more suspicious.

At this time, the guy who went out to buy came back with him, and when he saw the two people, his expression was abnormal, and then he quietly said something in Boss Chen's ear.

Boss Chen's face became extremely embarrassed, and then he hurriedly hugged the spread medicine in his arms like a baby.

"Who the hell are you?"

Chu Jiao couldn't hide it, and the soft smile on her face disappeared.

"Come with us."

Along with the guy he was taken away.

Boss Chen cried with a sad face, and knew that he couldn't afford it, but now he didn't expect that something really happened.

At this time, the two of them were kneeling under the hall, and Chu Jiao was holding the medicine in Boss Chen's arms in his hand, carefully checking the efficacy of its ingredients.

"Do you know what the crime of selling banned drugs is? And yesterday, Zhao, Li, and Zheng all died after taking your medicine, can you be guilty? ”

Chu Jiao asked.

"The grass people are really confused for a while, I really don't understand, the grass people just want to make some money and love, and they really can't do that hurtful thing, not to mention the children of Master Zheng, if the grass people have half a lie, let the grass people die well!"

He held two fingers up, looking worthy of the sky.

"I won't take your set, and when I find out if this medicine is poisonous, I won't allow you to deny it, and I'll lock him up for me."

Chu Jiao's style doesn't look like a person who has been raised in the depths, but like a perennial outsider, Zheng Siyuan knows the identities of the two, so he doesn't dare to add more beaks.

It's just that there will inevitably be discomfort in my heart.

"My lord, he just detains innocent people at will, is this worth it?" The man below said.

Zheng Siyuan also had a headache for this, this matter should have been done by him.

"My lord, why don't you interrogate them yourself, and you can also make a little contribution and achievement.

Don't look at them when the emperor looks at them doing things beautifully, he will only think that you have no ability, you will doubt adults, and you will think that adults are useless. The men said.

Zheng Siyuan felt that this was too reasonable, so he fell into deep thought.

"Come with me to the prison, and I'll check on the prisoners myself." Zheng Siyuan said.

However, Chu Jiao, who was obsessed with investigating the properties of medicine, knew nothing about it.

In the evening, Chu Jiao finally investigated the ingredients of this medicine.

It is indeed a good medicine, and there is nothing else in it.

But at this time, there was news from the prison, that is, Boss Chen was dead.

Chu Jiao hurriedly rushed to the prison, but by the time she passed, it was too late, there were no more people, and the ascension was full of wounds, and it seemed that she had been out of breath for a long time.

Chu Jiao frowned and looked at Zheng Siyuan, but Zheng Siyuan looked angry.

"Why do good people use torture?" Chu Jiao's tone was mixed with hidden anger.

Zheng Siyuan said seriously: "This person sells banned drugs, it is really a great crime, I think this matter is set to have something to do with the tragic death of my son, so the minister interrogated the suspect." ”

When Chu Jiao heard this, his face was already pale, but he didn't say anything bad when he still had an official position: "What is the result of the interrogation?" ”

"It's... The suspect surnamed Chen refused to confess, and he couldn't stand the torture, but he didn't expect that there would be no one left. Zheng Siyuan didn't feel much guilt, but still had a trace of regret.

Chu Jiao's heart sank to the bottom, so careless of human life, is this still worth it?

"How can he be tortured before he has been convicted? What's the difference between this and taking human life in a careless way? ”

Listening to her accusations and words in front of everyone, Zheng Siyuan's old face turned red, and he had no face.

"I'm just enforcing the law impartially, he's already guilty, and I'm not at fault at all."

"Although he is guilty of selling banned drugs, this matter is not a crime to death, not to mention that he has something to do with this matter."

Zheng Siyuan's face sank, and his attitude was not as good as just now.

"So what do you want? Can't you kill me? What's more, what is your identity?

As far as I know, you have reconciled with the King of Qin, and then followed, and you are not clear with the current saint, and your father has long ceased to be an official in the imperial city, you are just the identity of a cloth cloth, how can you ignore the matter of the official judgment of the case? ”

As soon as he finished saying this, he looked at Chu Jiao silently, and there was an inexplicable pleasure in his heart.

"Who told you that we were reconciled?"

When Chu Jiao heard Qin Shao's voice, her shoulders were already in his arms.

He has a faint ambergris on his body, even in the prison can not hide his nobility, although he is careless, the words he says have a terrifying feeling.

Seeing King Qin coming, Zheng Siyuan hurriedly saluted.

The jailers next to him also knelt on the ground.

"This king has never reconciled with her, and she and the saint are even more innocent, Lord Zheng, as an official, you actually speculated about the affairs of the palace, can you be guilty?"

His body was long, and under the flickering candle flame in the prison, his tall figure was reflected, and Chu Jiao suddenly felt that it was good to have him by his side.

It's just that she has never been able to pass the hurdle in her heart.

Don't mention it...

Just when Chu Jiao's mind was active, Zheng Siyuan still didn't want to repent.

"Wechen people are soft-spoken, if they really say the wrong thing and do the wrong thing, Wechen will not admit it, but Wechen has just had no children now, and he wants to investigate this matter clearly, and he doesn't want to be caught by her for a while, and he blames me more, and Wechen is angry, so he said a few words to her..."
