Chapter 29: By Divine Grace

But even Zhang Pingzhi didn't expect that he was in a hurry to go out that day, and what he put in his sleeve was the aphrodisiac he made for Zhang Ergou some time ago, and Boss Zhang, who was drunk and drank aphrodisiac, happened to meet Cuihua who quarreled with Zhang Ergou at night, so he ......

After opening the meat, Boss Zhang often forced Cuihua to do unspeakable things with himself, and was finally discovered by Zhang Ergou and stabbed him to death from behind. It was because of this absurdity that the two murders that began were made.

The two who knew the truth were silent for a long time.

Yan Miao felt that it was really too bizarre when he heard it, although no one wanted to see the final murder case, but he couldn't help but sigh that there was no coincidence that the book was not written, if there was no murder case, he and Tang Su would not have come here, let alone find out that there was poison in the water, and they would not have found that there was someone behind this matter.

And Zhang Pingzhi's confession and Yan Miao's previous detection of the toxicity of each well also proved that the poison in the fourteen wells in the suburbs of Beijing originated from the big wells in the back mountain.

After hearing this, Tang Su thought more far-reaching, the man in black must be a person under some big force, and it is estimated that he has a darker plan to poison such a large six villages, but he doesn't know why he wants to poison Zhang Pingzhi's hands.

Therefore, Tang Su planned to use Zhang Pingzhi to find out who was behind the scenes, and save his life to wait for the next time the man in black came to send him poison, although he might not be able to succeed, he still had to try his best.

Time flew by, and the two people who had interrogated Zhang Pingzhi came out of the room and found that it was already evening, and at this time, the guards sent by Lan Xiang in the morning had already arrived.

Tang Su sent everyone down to repair, and he and Yan Miao went to eat something first. While eating, the two of them recalled all the things they had encountered in the past three days, and guessed where the man in black came from and what happened.

Late at night, Yan Miao and Tang Su had not yet fallen asleep.

In the evening, Lan Xiang had already sent someone to drive a fast horse with three good medicines to arrive, reporting that Tang Su's antidote had been transferred out, and it could be used by the villagers after only being unharmed after trial.

After hearing the news, Yan Miao's heart relaxed.

The two decided to go back to the room to rest for one night, and then distribute the medicine to the villagers tomorrow after testing the medicine, just to find an excuse to think about it.

Yan Miao had some insomnia this night, thinking of what Zhang Pingzhi said and did during the day, she didn't know for a while whether Zhang Pingzhi should be a good person or a bad person.

Zhang Ping naturally did bad things under poisoning, but he was also persecuted, and his later good intentions seemed to be thinking about the people in the village.

Yan Miao asked herself what she would do if she were herself, but there was no answer.

When she was about to fall asleep, Yan Miao suddenly thought that Zhang Pingzhi gave Zhang Ergou an aphrodisiac, no wonder......

Early in the morning, as soon as Yan Miao woke up, she smelled the familiar smell of traditional Chinese medicine in the courtyard, and there were three medicines burning in the courtyard, which were the three prescriptions given by Luo Lao, and Tang Su was listening to what Lan Xiang said.

Yan Miao's wake was not too late, Lan Xiang had just started to say that she woke up after a while. When Tang Su saw it, he looked at her and motioned for her to sit next to him and listen together, so she slowly walked to Tang Su's side and listened to Lan Xiang talk about Luo Lao's explanation yesterday.

"Lord Wang, Luo Lao also said that the poisoning time is not too long, and the poisoning of the people is not too serious, so if you want not to make a big move, you can use the second recipe to solve the poison in the water first, and over time, all the poison in the body will be discharged."

"Luo Lao is really thoughtful." Tang Su nodded, "It's just that if you don't take the medicine, the elderly and pregnant women in the village may have some impact." Tang Su frowned slightly, a little embarrassed.

Yan Miao had an idea and said: "It's better to do this, let's first unravel the poison in the well, and then distribute the boiled mung bean licorice soup to the villagers under the pretext of the new custom of removing the summer fire when the capital is in autumn." ”

"That's a good idea. I didn't expect you to still have some thoughts. Tang Su nodded, but there was a bit of banter in his tone.

"And since pregnant women can't use licorice, it's better to let men and women receive the soup separately, men get mung bean licorice soup, and women can just drink mung bean soup, which also avoids special treatment of pregnant women, which arouses suspicion." Yan Miao didn't care too much about Tang Su's tone, but added carefully.

"Then let it be arranged." Tang Su and Lan Xiang gave a few orders, planning to call the village chiefs of the six villages over tomorrow to explain.

Why not today? Because I'm going to test the medicine today!

Yan Miao was fortunate to be a guinea pig today, and drank the most ingredient recipe, Tang Su said at the time: "This recipe has a strong taste, it is the most suitable for your taste, I will try the second recipe." ”

Yan Miao didn't get angry after hearing this, the first recipe was actually no longer necessary to try, but Tang Su still let himself drink it.

This is already the fourth day in the suburbs of Beijing, and in less than six days, the exam will begin.

Yan Miao's mind was gradually about to be taken away by the exam, and every exam in her previous life made her eager to burn incense and worship the Buddha to come later, but now she is very much looking forward to the arrival of the exam.

In the evening of this night, when the man in black gave Zhang Pingzhi poison, Zhang Pingzhi was watching the medical skills in the room, but his heart was beating a drum, he was really worried that the guards in ambush near his home would be discovered.

But fortunately, when the sky was dark and there were no five fingers, a dark shadow flashed outside Zhang Pingzhi's window, threw a small bag of poison into his room and disappeared, at least in Zhang Pingzhi's opinion.

In fact, the dark guard who was ambushed in the dark caught the man in black after throwing out the poison, and after the guard caught the man in black, he first blocked the mouth of the man in black with rags to prevent him from biting his tongue and committing suicide, and then searched the man in black and tied him tightly, and now he is on the way back to the inn.

In the inn.

The man in black was tied up tightly and brought food in front of Tang Su, Tang Su instructed the secret guard to entertain the man in black well, and sent a few more people to guard the dark place of Zhang Ping's house and the big well in the back mountain before going back to the room to sleep.

On the fifth day, Tang Su summoned the village chiefs in the capacity of King Xuan, and under the pretext that the emperor wanted to bless the people, he sent himself to bring the new customs that had been spread from the palace to the capital this year to the suburbs of Beijing, so as to show that he would enjoy with the people.

In order to resolve the crisis, the village chiefs were sent to boil mung bean soup and mung bean licorice soup for seven consecutive days.

However, it is necessary to spread the word first, and wait until two days later to start distributing.

The next day, someone in the village chatted about mung bean soup, which was nothing more than that he and the grass people had the opportunity to drink the drink from the palace, or that the people in the palace also drank mung bean soup and other sayings.

On the seventh day, Yan Miao, Tang Su, and Gao Yang, who had been trying the medicine for three days, were all the same, so Tang Su arranged for his subordinates to put the antidote into the big well in the back mountain after night, so as to relieve the poison in the water.
