174, a rake (2)
Sun Jizong was also sweating in the house.
Although others are not in the flower hall, this is always his territory, and naturally there are subordinates who do their duty to broadcast him live, so he knows everything that happens in the flower hall.
"Poisoned? How can it be poisoned? And why is it so coincidental that the day of poisoning was chosen? "Where did he remember now that he had to lie on the bed and pretend to be seriously wounded, and he couldn't lie down anymore, and he walked around the room with his hands behind his back and his brow furrowed, like a headless fly.
Seeing this, the butler who was guarding the side guessed: "Master, do you think there is a problem in the restaurant?" ”
Sun Jizong paused, looked back at him, and said, "What did you think of?" Let's talk about it carefully. ”
"There are many restaurants in the capital, the competition is already fierce, our restaurant has not been opened for a long time, not many people know that you are the owner behind the scenes, do you say that someone wants to ruin the reputation of our restaurant, so specially arranged for the fine work to enter the restaurant, and then deliberately poisoned the guests?"
"Then why did it go down to the Xie family? And that's not an ordinary poison, that's ten days of drunkenness! It's hard to find! Besides, if you want to ruin the reputation of the restaurant, don't you just use laxatives, even if you want to make a big deal and make a homicide, can you choose to get drunk for ten days with such a big effort? What a pig brain! Get out of the way, don't mess up with me if you can't help! ”
It's about himself, Sun Jizong's IQ is obviously on the line, but even so, he still can't understand how things can develop like this for a while.
What a game! As soon as he decided to do something to the Xie family, Xie Pingyu automatically sent him to the door, he did not hesitate to sacrifice himself, and calculated the Xie family fiercely, which seemed to be about to succeed, but at a critical time, there was a big reversal, and he turned him from a victim to a victim.
If you want to say that there is no shadow of the Xie family behind this matter, he will not believe it if he is killed, but let him think about breaking the head that is not smart enough, and he doesn't understand what the poison is about.
The Xie family is well-known for their concerted efforts and short-term protection, even if they have the heart to calculate others, they will never use the lives of their juniors as bargaining chips, otherwise how could they be seriously injured by Xu Tianci's calculations because of a useless Xie Linlang?
Could it be that there is someone else behind this matter? Want to calculate the Xie family and their Xiaoyao Mansion together at one time?
Impossible! That day, he calculated that Xie Pingyu was purely improvised, and he didn't discuss it with anyone, how could others know that the two of them would have a dispute that day?
After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out, so he simply lay down on the bed and didn't want to.
Anyway, he didn't poison Xie Pingyu, even if the Xie family made a fuss, there was no evidence, even if it really made trouble in front of the emperor, he would not admit it, not to mention that there was a mother, she would definitely speak for him.
No matter what, love what's wrong!
Sun Jizong has decided to give up, but Pang Zi doesn't know, he is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and he has to deal with Xie Chenyun's accusations and angry scolding, and he has to find a way to clear his master's suspicion, but in a short time, she feels that she has used up the IQ and eloquence she has accumulated in the first half of her life.
She felt that it was so difficult for her to be Mrs. Hou!
After arguing for a while, there was no result, Pang Zi was innocent of biting his master to death, he didn't know what ten days of drunkenness was, and there could be no antidote, so he was forced to cry vigorously. If it weren't for her scruples about her identity, I'm afraid that even the "one crying, two troubles, and three hangings" commonly used by shrews would have to be used.
Sun Jizong couldn't see it, Pang didn't let them see it, and Uncle Dingguo had only one breath left, and he couldn't be stimulated or seen by outsiders.
In desperation, Xie Chenfeng had no choice but to pull his second brother to leave, he couldn't waste all his time on an unreasonable woman, right?
Imperial Doctor Chen saw that there was nothing wrong with him, so he naturally followed suit, and soon, the originally noisy flower hall instantly quieted down, leaving only Pang Zi, who was still hiding his face and crying.
It was only at this time that Pang finally breathed a sigh of relief, and sat on the stool, feeling that all the strength in his body had been drained, and he couldn't even lift a finger.
Chunmei, the maid of the body, asked her how she was doing, if she needed to go back to the room to rest, she shook her head weakly, looked at Chunmei with teary eyes, and choked up: "Do you say that I have a hard life?" Why did you marry him? I endured a room of beautiful concubines, and I endured it if I didn't know how to get up, but you see, as soon as something happens, he pushes me to charge him, and when he is in trouble, he hides and lets me carry it alone, why am I so hard? ”
The more she talked, the more sad she became, the more she thought about it, the more sad she became, and she lay on the table and cried.
Chunmei had the heart to persuade but didn't know how to speak, so she could only comfort her softly in distress.
Pang Zi felt that he had been deceived by Sun Jizong, he must have done something to Xie Pingyu, even if the poison was not personally ordered by him, this matter could not be separated from him, otherwise why did the Xie family bite it? Imperial Doctor Chen has no grievances with him, so it is impossible to help the Xie family frame him, right?
Hateful! It's really hateful! She did something bad and didn't wipe her buttocks, and she forced her to go to Xie's house to find trouble, and she was scolded by the Xie family, and her face was lost!
After leaving the Xiaoyao Mansion, the two brothers of the Xie family did not go back to the house directly, but let the carriage wander around a few times, and only when they confirmed that there was no tail behind them, did they let the coachman drive the carriage to a remote alley and stopped in front of a small courtyard with blue tiles in the innermost.
After knocking on the door three times, someone came to open the door, and it turned out to be the third prince Gu Tingfeng's escort Thunder.
Lei Ting led them straight to the small garden, and in the pavilion in the center of the garden sat Gu Tingfeng and Liu Jiaojiao in front of the round table.
Seeing the two uncles coming, Liu Jiaojiao immediately got up and saluted, and then asked with a smile: "Eldest uncle, second uncle, is the matter done?" ”
Xie Chenyun still had the resentful look on his face at this time, his old face smiled brighter than the flowers in the garden, and after saluting Gu Tingfeng, who was sitting, he said very happily: "Jiaojiao, let me tell you, that Pang Zi was so scared by me that he would only cry in the end, and Sun Jizong's old puppet didn't even dare to show his face, but I guess he must have panicked, hahahaha, it's just very happy!" ”
Xie Chenfeng also saluted Gu Tingfeng, then glanced at the second brother who was happy, and said helplessly: "Second brother, you are an elder, can you be a little more restrained in front of Jiaojiao?" ”
Xie Chenyun raised his eyebrows absently, then sat down next to Liu Jiaojiao, unceremoniously picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, then drank it all, pouted and said: "Big brother, you are really boring, and you always like to put a shelf in front of your own family." ”
"That's better than you, I'm not self-motivated, and I taught Pingyu to be a gentleman, fortunately Pingxuan is not like you, otherwise ......"
Liu Jiaojiao knew that once Xie Chenfeng taught his younger brother a lesson, he would often have to talk at length for a long time, so she hurriedly interrupted: "Uncle, it's been hard for a long time, you can sit down and drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat." ”
Knowing that she was worried that she wouldn't be able to stop as soon as she spoke, Xie Chenfeng glanced at her with a little amusement, lifted her robe, and sat on the other side of her.
He didn't pour himself tea, but looked at Gu Tingfeng and arched his hand: "Today's matter is thanks to the help of the prince, and the lower official thanked the prince for my unsuccessful second brother and nephew." ”
Gu Tingfeng shook his head indifferently and said with a smile: "It's a trivial matter, there is no need to thank you." As he spoke, he looked at Liu Jiaojiao, her eyes were full of meaning, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, "Little boss, what other good things do you have in your hands?" Can you share a few things for the king? ”
Liu Jiaojiao replied with a smile, her attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and said: "There are so many good things in my hand, what does the prince want?" ”
Gu Tingfeng glanced at her deeply, but did not continue the topic, but smiled loudly, shook the folding fan in his hand a few times, and said, "Since the little owner is so generous, then the king will remember it, and I will talk to you when I need it in the future, how about it?" ”
"No problem, I made a note of it." Gu Tingfeng has done her such a big favor, she naturally won't be stingy, anyway, there is a system plug-in, it's a big deal, she will be cheated a few more times, and she can always get what the other party needs.
To be honest, Liu Jiaojiao didn't expect Gu Tingfeng to return to Beijing suddenly, and sent someone to find her as soon as possible.
At first, she didn't really want to owe this favor, after all, the debt is the most difficult thing to repay, but Gu Tingfeng said that he has been unpleasant to Uncle Guo for a long time, even if it is not the Xie family who has an accident today, he will do something to Uncle Guo, so that Liu Jiaojiao does not care.
In line with the tenet of "the enemy of the enemy is a friend", and her impression of the third prince is not bad, so she told him that she used a secret medicine for Xie Pingyu, making him look like his fate was hanging by a thread.
Gu Tingfeng was very curious, and asked Imperial Doctor Chen to personally diagnose the pulse, and found that Xie Pingyu's reaction after taking the medicine was almost exactly the same as that of being drunk for ten days, so he decided to take a rake and bite Sun Jizong back, making him flustered and difficult to argue.
Therefore, this is why the two masters of the Xie family made a big fuss about the Xiaoyao Mansion today.
