57. Inference
"What did the Medic say?" Shen Mengxi asked.
Sun Yicheng came out and saluted and said: "Princess, the lower official and the female doctor have checked this morning, Mrs. Fang is indeed allergic to death, in the past, the location of the rash was mostly on the hands and face, etc., and the location of the rash yesterday was just in the trachea, and the rash occurred in his sleep, resulting in suffocation. ”
"Painful death?"
"Scratched neck." Sun Yicheng said sadly. "The doctor said that her throat was swollen and blocked the entire airway."
Shen Mengxi sighed, "Can you see any food allergies?" ”
"The subordinates are incompetent, and they can only judge that it is a food allergy, and the specific food cannot be determined."
"How long does it usually take from eating food to having an allergic reaction?"
"Generally, it is about half an hour to an hour, and there are also good physiques, and there are also about a day."
Shen Mengxi sighed, the situation is not good, although the Cui family is just a teenager shouting, but it also represents the thoughts of the whole family. Out of sympathy and Yin'er's reasons, she came to mourn in person, but she didn't expect to put herself in an embarrassing situation.
She looked at Cui Jiulang, who was crying on the ground, and had a headache. Cui Jin seemed to be rejuvenated, and suddenly heard his youngest son crying, and asked the maid about what had just happened, and then as if he had just woken up from a dream, he ordered someone to pull him out, but Cui Jiulang struggled and refused.
"General Cui, may I ask, did Mrs. Zun not make any noise for help when she fell ill last night?"
Cui Jin hung his head in annoyance, "Last night, the subordinates were drunk, and they didn't hear any sound in their sleep, and they didn't find out until this morning......"
"So, is there a maidservant girl outside your bedroom who is on duty at night?" Shen Mengxi asked.
"Yes." Cui Jin looked left and right, "Which night was on duty last night?" ”
A servant girl walked out tremblingly, knelt down with a thud, and said in a trembling voice, "It's the servant Qiuguo." ”
"Qiuguo, this palace asks you, did you hear Mrs. Fang calling for help or moaning last night?"
"Servant ......," the servant girl couldn't speak.
"Yes is yes, no is no! What are you talking about? Old Madam Cui shouted.
The maidservant's face suddenly turned red, she looked at Cui Jin, kowtowed, and kowtowed to Shen Mengxi, "Servant, Ah Lang came back from drinking last night, and rested with the lady, and the maidservant avoided the outside." ”
Everyone was stunned.
Old Madam Cui glanced at the maidservant angrily, and then at her grandchildren, "You three go out first!" ”
Cui Qilang has already married, so he naturally understands that some words are not suitable for his younger brothers and sisters to hear, so he took them out, Cui Jiulang struggled a few times unwillingly, Cui Jin coughed, and he obediently let his brother pull him out.
Yin'er also went out at Shen Mengxi's signal.
"Go on!"
"Old lady, no, no." The maid shuddered, "Usually the maid is served like this, the lady is not allowed to get too close to the maid, the lady will pull the bell to summon the maid if she has something." The maid did not hear the bell ring all night outside, and it was not until early in the morning that the maid knew that the maid was ...... when she heard Ah Lang's shout."
Cui Jin's face was flushed, he couldn't remember what he did when he came back last night, vaguely as if he had made out with his wife, Mrs. Cui glared at her son hatefully and snorted.
Shen Mengxi asked Qiu Yan again, what did Mrs. Fang eat for dinner yesterday, and Qiu Yan replied that it was just simple porridge, radish, and tofu.
No one can know what the allergen is unless the autopsy is performed.
provoked a commotion for no reason, Shen Mengxi was extremely annoyed, now look, this in-law is also difficult to do, poor Yin'er is going to be sad.
Thinking of his in-laws, Shen Mengxi glanced at Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Liu also looked at it with an electric heart, and vaguely understood the meaning of the princess's eyes, muttered for a while, and said to Mrs. Cui: "Old lady, there is a sentence, the concubine thinks it should be said, at yesterday's luncheon, the princess liked the ten ladies very much, and originally planned to let the concubine come to your mansion today to propose marriage to the ten ladies." ”
Old Madam Cui was stunned for a moment, and looked at Shen Mengxi in surprise, with a complicated expression.
Shen Mengxi nodded.
"Thanks to the princess for not giving up, the blue-eyed Shi Niang, that is Shi Niang's honor, but Shi Niang's child is not blessed, Rou Niang has encountered an accident, Shi Niang can't discuss marriage within three years, the princess should find another lady." Old Madam Cui said with regret.
Shen Mengxi nodded again.
Without this, the Cui family may not be willing to marry with the princess's mansion, to be honest, the marriage between the families is much better than the marriage with the royal family, the Tang Dynasty is less than a hundred years, these families have been inherited for hundreds of years, no matter who is the emperor, it will not affect their power. Although there are civil and military examinations that can select commoners, they still can't shake the solid position of the eight families.
Shen Mengxi showed his old face to beg for relatives and condolences, but it was just for Yin'er. The boy's first love will be remembered for a lifetime, even if it doesn't work, there must be no regrets.
"Then the palace will take its leave. Cui sacrificed wine, the old lady took care of her body, and General Cui mourned. Shen Mengxi got up and walked past Cui Jin, when he suddenly smelled a faint smell of wine.
"General Cui!" Shen Mengxi stopped, "I don't know how much wine the general drank last night?" What kind of wine is it? ”
Cui Jin was a little embarrassed, but still said, "First I drank the five-grain wine from the princess winery, about half a catty." ”
Shen Mengxi glanced at him, half a catty is eight taels, and the five grains of wine are about 40 degrees, and the amount of wine is not small.
"Ahem, and then a few more glasses of wine." Cui Jin continued.
"How many glasses?"
"How many, five, six? It's the crystal cup. Cui Jin was sweating a little, his wife was newly mourned, he was talking about last night's hangover here, and he always felt sorry for his wife. But the princess asked, and had to answer.
"Drunk?"
Cui Jin opened his mouth and said dejectedly, "Yes." ”
"Did you have sex with Madame Zun last night?"
Cui Jin raised his head in surprise, his face was red, and he looked at Shen Mengxi in disbelief. Everyone in the Cui Mansion was also speechless and looked at the princess who spoke amazingly.
"Answer Hongu!" Shen Mengxi frowned.
"Ahem, yes." Cui Jin clasped her hands in her sleeves.
"Did Mrs. Fang ask for water last night?" Shen Mengxi turned to the servant girl.
The crowd was shocked again.
The maid didn't watch out for her and asked her again, and she was still behind the person in a daze, and was asked by Mrs. Cui before she replied, "No, no." ”
"Sun Yicheng, I don't know if you've heard of it?" Shen Mengxi turned to Sun Yicheng, "Some people with sensitive physiques will be allergic to **, General Cui drank a lot of wine last night, and his blood and ** are full of alcohol, and this grape is a forbidden food for Mrs. Fang." Therefore, it is very likely that Mrs. Fang was allergic, and when she had an attack, the maid was far away, General Cui slept deeply, and Mrs. Fang couldn't make a voice to call for help...... "Shen Mengxi has seen such news, a woman with peanut allergies, because her husband ate peanuts, had an allergic reaction after having intercourse, so she boldly made inferences.
Cui Jin grew his mouth and looked straight at Shen Mengxi, who turned his head to look at him.
For a long time, Cui Jin realized that he was disrespectful, lowered his head suddenly, and squatted on the ground with his head in his hands.
"Sun Yicheng, is that really the case?" Cui Xijiu asked in a trembling voice.
"I haven't heard of the lonely old news of the lower officials before." Sun Yicheng bowed down and replied, "But there are no surprises in the world, and what the princess said is also reasonable." "Sun Yicheng is a hard bone who seeks truth from facts.
"Doctor Sun is noble and admired. You may wish to find an allergy person to test one or two. ”
Sun Yicheng is embarrassed, how is this experiment?
"This palace doesn't mean to shirk, it's just a direction to infer. In the future, if there is evidence to prove that it is the responsibility of the princess's mansion, the palace will not shirk it. Breeze! Call Shangyin'er and go home. ”
No longer looking at the people in Cui Mansion, Shen Mengxi strode out of the main gate of Cui Mansion and got into the carriage to return home.
