Chapter 455: Arrest the real murderer

Cooks, look at me, I look at you, although no one confessed to the person, but their eyes fell on the first kneeling cook.

Chu Yueli looked at the cook who was kneeling in the first place, and said, "You are in charge of the small kitchen, right?" But what do you make cassava? ”

The first cook looked very flustered, and the cold sweat on his head quickly fell. He said, "Back to ...... Miss Hui, is it ...... It's the villain in charge of the Hou Ye's kitchen, the cassava...... The cassava was also made by the villain. However, the villain swears that the tapioca cake is absolutely ripe, and there is absolutely no problem. Besides, it doesn't matter if the cassava is not fully cooked. If the young lady doesn't believe it, the villain will eat it for you. With that, he began to munch on half-cooked cassava.

After Chu Yueli watched him finish eating, she said, "Give him another pot." That dose didn't work for him. ”

However, the first cook refused to eat any more.

Chu Yueli said: "Are you recruiting, or am I letting you recruit?" ”

The first cook shouted, "Wronged! The villain is wronged! ”

At this time, the eldest princess took Mama Li and Steward Gu into Wutong Pavilion.

The first cook immediately knelt down to the eldest princess, kowtowed, and said, "The villain is wronged, beg the eldest princess to save the villain's life." The villain has served Hou Ye for many years, and has never made a mistake, Miss Chu wronged the villain for poisoning Hou Ye, the villain is really wronged, ask the eldest princess to see clearly, you must not be so chilling people's hearts! ”

The eldest princess sat down, looked at Chu Yueli and asked, "Which one is this singing?" ”

Chu Yueli used chopsticks to pick up the cassava and replied: "This thing is called cassava, not sweet potato." Ordinary people who eat half-baked cassava will die within six hours if they only need this one. Gu Hou was already unwell, and he was bedridden for many days, and he only needed half of them to fly out of the sky. ”

As soon as the eldest princess heard this, her eyes instantly erupted with fire! She looked at the first cook and asked Chu Yueli: "This is true." ”

Chu Yueli said: "If the eldest princess doesn't believe it, then try it." He threw the cassava in his hand at the first cook, "Come on, eat clean, and then we'll just look at him like this, and see when he will go to Hades." ”

The first cook suddenly collapsed and cried: "Eldest princess, spare your life, this thing can only be eaten cooked, and indeed cannot be eaten raw." The villain uses the head guarantee that the villain makes for the Hou Ye to eat, and it must be ripe! Raising his hand to the third cook, "She did it!" It's her! However, the villain tasted it, and it was indeed cooked. ”

The eldest princess was furious and said, "You dare to make poisonous things for Hou Ye to eat?!" What a big dog guts! Come on, drag both of them down to the main palace, and beat them until they confess! ”

The first cook struggled and said: "Hou Ye did not die of poisoning, has the eldest princess ever seen a poisoned person with white skin and red lips like Hou Ye?" ”

The eldest princess frowned.

Chu Yueli snorted and laughed.

Bai Yunjian said: "Bo Xi died, how could you, a cook, see his appearance after death?" ”

The first cook was slightly stunned, and then sat down on the ground, speechless.

The third female chef reacted to the taste, pounced on the first chef and beat him, and scolded in her mouth: "No conscience! No conscience! ”

Chu Yue said, "The relationship between the two of you looks extraordinary. ”

The first cook was silent, but the female cook burst into tears.

Chu Yueli said: "Who will tell me now, what's going on?" ”

No one speaks.

Chu Yueli said: "Yes, there are not many in total, and they can all be pulled down and killed." Lest I be too tired to ask one question after another. ”

In a word, all the cooks opened their mouths and told them what they knew.

The female cook wept and said, "This tapioca cake is indeed made by a slave, but he made it by a slave." He glared at the first cook viciously, and then continued, "When the slave is ready, it is handed over to him, and I don't know what happened next." Later, Gu Hou suddenly died, and the slave was afraid, lest he be implicated, so he became angry. ”

The fifth cook said: "The slave saw Steward Du crush the raw cassava, stir it into the cooked cassava and send it to the Hou Ye to enjoy. The slave thought that this was a new method, and later nibbled on two mouthfuls of raw cassava, only to feel a little uncomfortable in his abdomen, but he didn't think much about it. I was interrogated by Miss Chu today, and I was terrified in my heart, for fear that it would be related to this matter. ”

As long as someone speaks, it's like a river bursting its banks, and it can't be closed anymore.

Chu Yueli said: "One of the characteristics of this cassava is that after poisoning, it is not like other highly poisonous, which makes people turn blue, but it is as natural as a normal death. Moreover, people who are poisoned will not die immediately, but will vary from person to person. Some people are in better health, but they will have a later seizure. Looking at the first cook, that is, Steward Du, "That night, what time did you send Gu Hou the cassava supper?" ”

The kitchen steward didn't speak, but the female cook said, "It's at dinner." ”

Gu Xige said: "The dinner in the house has always been the end of the Shen period. ”

The eldest princess stood up, walked to Steward Du step by step, and said, "You actually poisoned Bo Xi, it's really a good skill." This palace never treats you badly, but you hurt Boxi so much. The tone of his voice changed suddenly, and he roared, "This palace wants your whole family to die without a corpse!" ”

Steward Du was frightened, came back to his senses, kowtowed, and said: "The eldest princess spares her life, spares her life, the villain does things alone, and begs the eldest princess to let the villain's family go." The villain was also deceived by others, got a home remedy, mistakenly thought that this method could make Hou Ye strong, thinking that he would always eat it, but he didn't expect it to cause a catastrophe...... Moreover, the death of Hou Ye is not necessarily poisoning......"

The eldest princess's eyes were split, and she roared with hatred: "You dare to quibble?!" Come on, serve with heavy punishment! ”

The guards stepped forward, set up the kitchen to take care of the house, and pulled it down to be beaten.

Brother Gu Xi didn't dare to look at it, but he also felt relieved of hatred.

Chu Yueli hugged Brother Gu Xi and comforted him in a low voice: "Okay, it's all over." In fact, she knew in her heart that it had not passed, and the big event had just begun. Steward Du will not harm Gu Boxi for no reason, the mastermind behind the scenes, and the person who hires relatives is not Xu is one person, Xu is two people, but they must all have ulterior secrets.

The eldest princess looked at Chu Yueli and said, "If Boxi was poisoned by cassava, then what happened to the assassin?" ”

Chu Yueli replied: "Tricks." If Gu Fu's eyes were attracted by the assassins, he would naturally not carefully investigate the real reason for Gu Hou's death. And, I think, Steward Du lurking in the Hou Mansion must have other purposes. ”

The eldest princess said with a heavy gaze: "It seems that the Hou Mansion is something to remember." After a slight pause, "Chu Yueli, why do you know that raw cassava is poisonous?" ”

Chu Yueli said: "When I was in the countryside, I saw a gluttonous child who was poisoned and died after eating raw cassava, but his face was very good-looking. Today, when I went to the Mansion of Duke Tao, I asked people to read some of the testimonies of these minions to listen, and I heard that Gu Hou had eaten cassava before his death, so I paid attention. No, that's the truth. ”

The eldest princess nodded and praised, "Not bad." ”

After a while, Steward Gu came to report and said, "Eldest Princess Qiyu, Steward Nadu didn't take a few beatings, but he died." ”
