Chapter Forty-Six: Death Pulls a Back
Li Xi picked up the silver needle and put it in front of Old Man Fang.
"Master Fang, please take a look!"
"Okay, old man, take a look!"
Although Old Man Fang is not a person who knows the way of medicine, he is a person who has lived for most of his life, how could he not know what it means if the silver needle turns black!
"Li Langzhong, what does this mean now is that the reason why the old man fainted inexplicably after taking the medicine prescribed by Li Langzhong just now was because of poisoning?"
Li Xi nodded and said.
"Master Huifang, it can be understood in this way, when the housekeeper brought the medicine in just now, the little girl smelled a peculiar smell, so she secretly asked Miss Wan'er to go to the kitchen to get the medicine residue over in case of emergency, and sure enough, the little girl's doubts just now were correct."
Old Man Fang nodded, and then glanced at the housekeeper coldly.
"Butler, what do you explain about this?"
Thinking that the foolproof plan was so casually dismantled by Li Xi, the housekeeper lowered his head in a panic, and didn't dare to raise his head to look at Master Fang.
"Master, the little one is only responsible for giving you the medicine according to the prescription, and the other things are all done by the girl in the kitchen, so the little one doesn't know anything about this matter!"
Seeing that the housekeeper didn't admit it, Li Xi knew that the time had come for her to go out, only to see her clapping her hands, slowly walking in front of the housekeeper, and looking at the housekeeper with a playful face.
"Oh? Butler, you really don't know, who poisoned the master's medicine? ”
The housekeeper kept his head down and shook his head again and again: "I really don't know that there is a problem with the master's medicine, if the little one knows, he wouldn't dare to serve it to the master!" The master is the master of hundreds of people up and down our Fang family, and the Fang family can't live without the master! ”
Old Man Fang was originally a kind person, but when he heard that the housekeeper was so loyal, his heart immediately softened.
He clapped his hands, and the maid Wan'er walked up to him respectfully.
"Master, what do you command?"
"You bring me all the girls in the kitchen, including the cook, and none of them can be left behind, and I will interrogate them personally, I want to see who hates me to the bone, and I will definitely let him die a good death when the time comes!"
As soon as they heard the words "don't die well", Mrs. Fang and the housekeeper suddenly trembled, looking at the expressions of the people in front of them, Li Xi could laugh for a day.
Just as Wan'er was about to walk out, Li Xi blocked her way.
"Wait, Master Fang, as for finding out the murderer who plotted against you, the little girl is willing to do it for you, I wonder if Master Fang is willing to teach me this task?"
Old Man Fang laughed heartily out loud.
"Of course, Li Langzhong is someone's savior, since you are so interested in this matter, how can the old man not agree!"
I saw that Old Man Fang stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture to Li Xi.
"Li Langzhong, please please!"
Li Xi nodded with a smile, and then turned his head to look at the housekeeper with a smile: "Butler, you really don't know who poisoned you?" ”
"Li Langzhong, the little one knows that when I went to your house with my wife today, I didn't respect you, but you can't be sure that it was my poison, the little one has followed our master up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire for so many decades, and he has long regarded the master as my relative, how dare I do that?"
What does this housekeeper mean is that Li Xi will declare a personal vendetta because of the housekeeper's previous attitude towards her?
I have to say that this old fox is still very powerful.
Although it is said that "ginger is still old and spicy", Li Xi can be said to be better than this old fox.
Li Xi nodded and said.
"Since the housekeeper doesn't know anything, then I'm welcome, and then you don't regret your decision just now!"
I saw Li Xi pacing to Mrs. Fang's side with a leisurely look, looking her up and down, and suddenly squatted down.
Seeing this, Mrs. Fang suddenly stepped back in a panic.
"Li Langzhong, what do you mean, what do you see me doing now, is it possible...... Do you think I poisoned our master now? ”
Li Xi raised his head and looked at Mrs. Fang and smiled.
"That's not for sure!"
"Master, look at this dead girl who has wronged her concubine so much, I have been husband and wife with my master for a lifetime, how can I harm you?"
When Mrs. Fang didn't pay attention, Li Xi suddenly grabbed Mrs. Fang's arm and stretched his hand into her sleeve with lightning speed.
"Ahh
With a scream, I saw Li Xi take out a small black bottle from Mrs. Fang's sleeve and shake it in his hand twice.
"Since you have such a good relationship with Old Man Fang, but how can you explain it?"
Seeing the things in Li Xi's hand, the housekeeper and Mrs. Fang were stunned.
"You...... What are you robbing me of? This is my rouge, what do you know as a country girl? ”
Li Xi flashed to the side, avoiding Mrs. Fang's competition, she opened the small bottle in her hand, smelled it, and said to Mrs. Fang with a smile.
"Although I am a country girl, I haven't seen any rouge, but Mrs. Fang carries it with me...... It doesn't seem like rouge, right? No matter how I say it, I am also a langzhong, how can I not know that the contents of this bottle are highly poisonous - arsenic? ”
"Mrs. Fang, don't tell me, it's been your habit to carry highly toxic arsenic with you!"
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Fang's face turned pale, and she was stunned in place and didn't know what to do.
Li Xi re-closed the lid of the bottle and respectfully delivered it to Old Man Fang's hand.
"Master Fang, in my opinion, the poison in your dregs is the arsenic in it, please decide!"
Old Man Fang never thought that the person who wanted to put him to death was none other than his wife, who got along day and night!
Originally, he was in very poor health, but when he was stimulated, he suddenly began to cough violently, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Mrs. Fang tremblingly.
"You...... You slut, for so many decades, the old man has treated you well, why do you want to hurt me so much? ”
Mrs. Fang cried so much that she plopped down at Old Man Fang's feet.
"Master, don't you just listen to this girl, how could I do such a thing?"
Master Fang kicked her over and sneered.
"The facts are in front of you, who do you think I will believe, I advise you to tell the truth, otherwise you know my methods!"
Seeing that Old Man Fang was about to move seriously, Mrs. Fang got up tremblingly and grabbed Old Man Fang's trouser legs.
"Since you've decided that you're going to let me die, then I'm going to have to pull a cushion anyway!"
