Chapter 271: Strange Poisoning
Di Renjie looked at the housekeeper Tang Lu, and then at the catcher who was kneeling on the ground, turned his head and said to Li Yuanfang: "Yuanfang, they didn't expect that someone would poison the food, let him get up!" ”
Li Yuanfang said to Na Yukuai: "The adults have said it, I won't hold you accountable this time!" ”
Catch Kuai kowtowed again and again to thank him, "Thank you, my lord, thank you General Li!" ”
Di Renjie looked around and said, "Yuan Fang, you take them to seal this place tightly, no one is allowed to come in, Xiao Ying, let's go see Chunhong!" ”
After speaking, Di Renjie took Xiao Ying straight to the room where Chunhong was held, and the housekeeper Tang Lu also rushed over!
The arrester in charge of the guards saw Di Renjie coming, and hurriedly knelt down to salute, "My lord, I deserve to die for my humble duties, I didn't look at the prisoners, and let the prisoners be poisoned to death, please punish them!" ”
Di Renjie waved his hand and said, "That's it, it's not your fault, get up, you go out first, stay outside!" ”
"Thank you, sir!" After the two catchers kowtowed to thank him, they got up and retreated, stopping the housekeeper Tang Lu at the door!
In the room, the body of the maid Chunhong fell on the side of the table, and she also bled to death, but the strange thing is that the food on the table didn't seem to move, Di Renjie took out a silver needle and tried the food on the table, and it was the same as Gou Er's share, which was highly poisoned!
Xiao Ying asked a little puzzled: "My lord, it seems that this Chunhong didn't eat these meals, how could she be poisoned and die?" ”
Di Renjie was also puzzled, carefully inspected Chunhong's body, and after a while, Di Renjie slowly stood up and stared at Chunhong's corpse silently!
Xiao Ying asked on the side: "Elder Ge, this Chunhong didn't eat this bowl of rice, how could she be poisoned?" ”
Di Renjie shook his head slightly, and muttered: "It's really strange, the food was indeed poisoned, but this Chunhong didn't eat it, how did she get poisoned?" ”
Xiao Ying called the arrester who was in charge of guarding Chunhong over, and asked with a cold face, "Has anyone been here?" ”
He replied: "Half an hour ago, a servant from the village came to deliver food, and no one came!" ”
Di Renjie pondered for a moment and asked, "Did the servant who delivered the meal leave after delivering the food?" ”
Without thinking, he replied, "Yes, my lord, the servant will leave after delivering the food."
Finish! No one has come in since! The two of us had been guarding the door, and then we suddenly heard the prisoner screaming, so we hurried in to check on it, and saw that the prisoner had bled and fell to the ground! ”
Di Renjie nodded and continued to ask, "Did the servant who delivered the meal say anything special to her?" ”
A catcher quickly reminisced for a moment, and said: "Lord Hui, after the servant brought the food in, it seemed that this person was guilty of not eating, and the servant persuaded her to come, and said that he knew that she was wronged, don't starve her body!" ”
Another catcher suddenly recalled: "Oh, my lord, the little one remembers, the servant who delivered the meal even poured a bowl of water for the prisoner!" ”
Di Renjie's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Where did you pour the water from?" Why didn't you see the bowl she drank from? ”
The catcher quickly replied: "Lord Hui, it's the pot of water, the servant who delivered the meal and the others put the tea bowl back after drinking the water, it's all there!" ”
Di Renjie looked in the direction of his finger, there was a teapot and four tea bowls on the table by the window, Di Renjie walked over quickly, opened the teapot, took out the silver needle and tried the water in the pot, but what shocked Di Renjie happened, the silver needle did not change at all, Di Renjie couldn't help frowning slightly, and carefully checked the four tea bowls one by one, put them under his nose and sniffed, and then, Di Renjie picked up the teapot, poured water into the four tea bowls respectively, and tried it with a silver needle, and the silver needle still did not change!
Xiao Ying walked up to Di Renjie and asked softly, "Elder Ge, have you found anything?" ”
Di Renjie shook his head slightly, and said slowly: "It's really strange, I just heard that the servant who delivered the meal poured a bowl of water for Chunhong, so I suspect that this water is also poisoned, but I have just seen it at a glance, whether it is the water in this pot or these four tea bowls, it is not poisonous, how did this Chunhong be poisoned?" ”
As he spoke, Di Renjie returned to Chunhong's body, opened the needle bag, took out several silver needles at the same time, and stabbed them all the way to Chunhong's throat to his chest, and after a while, Di Renjie took off the silver needles one by one, and the silver needles all turned jet black without exception!
Di Renjie slowly stood up and said, "Judging from these silver needles, the poison in this Chunhong is indeed taken from the mouth!" But she didn't eat anything but a bowl of water, so how did the poison get into her mouth? ”
Xiao Ying pondered for a moment, suddenly his expression tightened, and suddenly said: "Elder Ge, I know, it was the servant who delivered the rice, he saw that Chunhong didn't eat this bowl of rice, so when he poured water for Chunhong, he poisoned the bowl of water!" ”
The catcher on the side suddenly said: "No, no, the food delivery is both staring at him, after he poured the water, he directly served it to the prisoner, there is no chance to poison him!" ”
Xiao Ying smiled slightly and said, "Are you so sure?" ”
The two catchers nodded quickly and said in unison: "Sure!" ”
Xiao Ying didn't speak, walked to the kettle, poured out the water in the tea bowl, poured two more bowls of water, brought it to the two catchers, and said, "Since you are so sure, then drink these two bowls of water, right?" ”
The two catchers looked at each other, glanced at Chunhong, who was poisoned and died on the ground, and hesitated not to know whether to drink or not!
Xiao Ying looked at the two hesitant catchers, and smiled: "Don't worry, Elder Ge has already experienced it just now, there is no poison in this water!" ”
The two catchers smiled awkwardly, took the tea bowl in Xiao Ying's hand, drank all the water in the bowl, and returned the empty bowl to Xiao Ying!
Seeing that the two of them finished drinking, Xiao Ying smiled slightly, put the tea bowl aside, raised the little fingers of both hands and said, "If I had prepared poison in advance, the two of you would have been poisoned to death at this time!" ”
Di Renjie and the two catchers were shocked, and they turned their eyes to Xiao Ying's little finger, and the three of them were surprised to find that Xiao Ying's two little fingers were actually wet!
Di Renjie was stunned: "How did you do it?" I've been staring at you just now, and I haven't noticed any unusual behavior from you, huh? ”
Xiao Ying explained: "Ge Lao, there are many ways to apply poison, presumably adults also know, there is a way to apply poison is to hide the poison in the gap between the nails, you can take advantage of the unpreparedness, just stir the finger that hides the poison in the food or water, you can poison it instantly, and if it is a strong poison, you can even only need to dip it once, you can complete the poison, just now I poured two bowls of water at the same time can easily apply poison, not to mention that the servant who delivered the meal just poured a glass of water, if you want to poison, it is even easier!" ”
The two catchers couldn't help but be afraid, if the woman in front of them just now really poisoned the two of them, they really didn't know how to die!
