Chapter 221: The Five Foods Scatter Storm Rises Again
The next day, Chu Yue'an went to ask the old lady to say goodbye, and when she came back safely, the old lady was always a little disappointed, this incident happened too quickly and ended too quickly, so that she didn't have time to make some moves from it.
In fact, she is also in a state of contradiction now, on the one hand, because she noticed that Chu Yuean was investigating the cause of her mother's death, and wanted to completely end that matter, then Chu Yuean had to disappear into this world. On the other hand, the Hou Mansion is now in trouble, and it has to use the strength of this girl to get through this difficulty.
"It's okay, it's a blessing from the gods. In the future, you should do things in some proportion, don't act recklessly, and be careful of endangering the Hou Mansion and your father. ”
The old lady looked tired, Xu is a series of things happened to her too hard, recently her body has not been very good, now she only hopes that her daughter can enter Beijing as soon as possible, and then continue the mother's love, she herself does not know how long she can last.
"Yes." Chu Yue'an nodded slightly, "Yue'an wrote it down." ”
Then Chu Yue'an was called to the study by Chu Yuan, no matter what, Qiu Gongzi died at Chu Yue'an's hands, which still made Chu Yuan frightened, and he didn't know how to face his colleagues.
"Father doesn't have to be afraid to face Lord Qiu, after all, it was his son who wanted to harm people first, if I didn't make a move, then I would be the one who died." Chu Yue'an said lightly, "And my younger brother, wasn't he injured?" I haven't settled this account with her yet! ”
"You can't say that, after all, you're still alive and his son is dead." Chu Yuan said.
Chu Yuean raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Then the father wants me to die, and his son is alive?" ”
"That's not what I meant, forget it, I can't understand it with you." Chu Yuan waved his hand, "Since the matter has been explained, you can go down." ”
"Yes."
On the other hand, since the county lord of Minzhi knew that the Zhao family might have something to do with Wushisan, he had been staring at the small pharmacy that Mrs. Wu frequented in the western suburbs, and today he finally met Mrs. Wu to visit again.
The county lord of Minzhi stared at it for several days, and finally had an eyebrow, she was both excited and uneasy, and decided to go in person.
"Mrs. Wu has already entered." A small servant reported, "County Lord, do we want to go in now?" You can directly catch the thief and take the stolen goods, and everyone can get the stolen goods. ”
"Wait a little longer." There was a touch of coldness in the eyes of the county lord of Minzhi, "They will definitely greet each other for a while, and when Mrs. Wu comes out, let's take her again and search her directly." ”
"Yes."
After a long while, Mrs. Wu hurried out of the store, looked left and right, and saw that there was nothing suspicious before getting into the carriage, and asked the carriage to speed up.
As soon as he walked a street, the carriage was stopped by another carriage, and Mrs. Wu asked in the carriage, "What's the matter?" ”
"There's a carriage in front of you blocking the way, the little one is urging it!" When the coachman jumped out of the carriage and was about to urge the other party to leave quickly, he just walked to the other party's carriage and was stopped by two men rushing out of the side.
Hearing the exclamation of the nail coachman, Mrs. Wu was shocked, and hurriedly opened the curtain of the car to check, as soon as she opened it, she saw the figure of the county lord of Minzhi in front of the carriage, and she asked suspiciously: "Why is the county lord here?" Ahead is the county lord's carriage? ”
The county lord of Minzhi didn't say anything coldly, waved his hand, and directly rushed up, and two people took Mrs. Wu off the carriage.
Mrs. Wu was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Lord Minzhi, you and I have no grievances, what do you mean by this?" ”
Lord Minzhi didn't say anything to her, he directly went forward and searched her body, and found nothing suspicious, so he got into the carriage again and picked up a box in the carriage, which was indeed filled with some powder.
"What is this?" Lord Minzhi asked.
Mrs. Wu's face turned pale, and she hurriedly said, "It's just some powder for making rouge." ”
"Really?" Lord Minzhi sneered, "I don't think so, how can I look like five foods?" ”
Mrs. Wu's face turned even paler, and she stared at the county lord of Minzhi and said, "County lord, there is no grudge between you and me, why do you want to kill them all?" ”
"I don't have any problem with you, but if you buy five food powders from the Zhao family, you are doing the right thing with me." Lord Minzhi sneered, and then ordered someone to pull Mrs. Wu into the carriage and return to Fangcai's pharmacy together.
Mrs. Wu swallowed her saliva and knelt in front of the county lord of Minzhi: "County lord, I know, you spare me this time, I will promise you whatever you want, I don't dare anymore, you will bypass me this time, just this time!" ”
Lord Minzhi smiled coldly: "These five food dispersions are forbidden by the imperial court, you are an official dependent, can you not know?" You just break the law, can you spare you, you have the laws of the Southern Tang Dynasty, I don't care about this, I only care, the sin of selling five food is more than the sin of buying, right? ”
While speaking, the carriage returned to Fang Cai's small shop, and the county lord of Minzhi waved his hand, causing several small servants and the guards of the palace to rush in, and directly took the shopkeeper and Xiao Er.
"You're a serious merchant, what do you want to do?" The shopkeeper hurriedly said.
"Who is a serious merchant who will sell five food scatters?" Lord Minzhi snorted coldly.
"How can this girl talk nonsense!" As soon as the shopkeeper wanted to quibble, the county lord of Minzhi slapped him, "Mrs. Wu just bought it from you, I will talk nonsense without evidence?" If you don't want to endure hardship, you'd better be honest, otherwise, you'll have your good fruit to eat! You are not the owner, why hide it and suffer yourself! ”
The shopkeeper was covered in cold sweat, but he still wanted to struggle, and said, "I don't know what the girl is talking about!" Who is the girl, do you know who our owner is? If you offend our host, beware that you can't eat and walk around! ”
"Isn't it the Jade Princess? It's just a side concubine, it's worth being so arrogant? If your owner is not a jade concubine, I am too lazy to come here! Lord Minzhi snorted, "A few of you, first cut off his ten fingers, one by one, to see if his mouth is hard or your knife is hard." ”
As he spoke, one of the guards pressed the shopkeeper to the ground, pulled out one of his hands, and drew his knife to slash.
"I said, we have five food san, we are secretly buying five food san!" The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "The things are in the secret compartment of the inner room, I will go and get them to you, don't look at my hands, spare me!" ”
"As long as you are obedient, I will naturally not embarrass you!"
After a while, the shopkeeper took out the remaining five food scatters, and the county lord of Minzhi took the evidence, and he was overjoyed, and now he saw how the Zhao family was jumping.
Then she sent someone to Fu Yin to report the case, and after a while, Fu Yin hurried over and figured out what happened.
I didn't expect that King Yu's Mansion and King Qi's Mansion were also involved in this matter, Fu Yin sighed deeply, The front foot just sent Miss Chu Er and King Chu away, and two great gods came at this time, this is not the meaning of letting him live well at all!
The county lord of Minzhi personally caught someone, got the evidence and reported the case, even if Fu Yin wanted to show favoritism, he didn't have the courage to do so, since this matter involved Concubine Yu, he had to throw this burden to Dali Temple.
Fu Yin took down a cadre and sent them to the government, and then planned to go back to write an excerpt.
After all this, Minzhi was in a good mood, so she could only wait to see the fate of the Zhao family, the Zhao family arrived, and Chu Yuezi was just a lost dog.
And Mrs. Wu was arrested, and the shop was investigated, and soon spread all over the capital, and those who bought and smoked Wushisan after Mrs. Wu's introduction were panicked, first, they were afraid that they would be found out.
On the other hand, if this jade concubine falls, where will they go to buy such a good thing as Wushisan in the future? If you can't smoke Wushi Powder anymore, what's the point of living!
"What! I was found and caught! Concubine Yu's face changed, and she knocked over the lotus seed soup on the side, "How can this be?" Didn't I always tell them to be careful? How could it be discovered? ”
"It was Lord Minzhi who went personally." Xiao Wu said, "It seems that I was following Mrs. Wu, and I found five food dispersions on Mrs. Wu on the spot, and everyone didn't have a chance to react." ”
"Lord Minzhi?" Concubine Yu's eyes rolled, "I haven't offended her, what does she mean by doing this to me?" Could it be because of Yuezi, Yuezi seduced Qi Yuzhi and offended her, so she was taking revenge! This Chu Yuezi, why do you want to provoke the county lord of Minzhi, how can it end now! ”
She was worried, the door was kicked open, only to see King Yu, who got the news, hurrying over, with an angry face, after he entered, he grabbed the collar of Concubine Yu, and asked coldly: "What's going on with that shop in the west of the city!" Why was it found out that he was selling five food powders! Do you know that the five food scattered in the court ordered that the five gods could not be sold again! ”
"The concubine doesn't know what's going on!" Concubine Yu said in a panic, "The concubine body also got the news just now, this matter has nothing to do with the concubine body, it must be the shopkeeper who did this behind my back, the prince is clear, the concubine body is really innocent!" ”
King Yu let go of the jade concubine, and said with a dark face: "This king knows that you have always been very greedy for money, and this king has given you a lot of Zhuangzi shops, but I didn't expect you to be still not satisfied, and actually do such a thing!" This king usually has less food for you or less for you to drink, you don't even take this king's words to heart, and do such things to deceive this king! ”
"Nope!" Concubine Yu knelt on the ground and was still quibbling, "Lord Wang, you have to believe in the concubine body, even if this kind of thing is borrowed from the concubine body for a hundred guts, the concubine body will not dare!" ”
