"Then I'll have someone make more delicious food and send it to the guest house." In order to make up for He Shuning, who was confined in disguise, Ji Yongan had already offered to give He Shuning more food without waiting for Mu Qingyun's reminder.

He Shuning was busy repeating all his requests for future food to Ji Yongan, and Ji Yongan was amused and helpless.

"Okay, I'll try to let you taste all the dishes, soups, and desserts in the palace before we enter the barracks."

He Shuning let out a small cheer, and since then he has been very well-behaved in his own room in the guest house.

And Ji Yongan really fulfilled his promise, three meals a day, plus snacks and supper, the big kitchen of the palace would change its tricks every day to send all kinds of food to the guest house.

This situation continued until the evening of the sixth day when He Shuning and the others lived in the palace, and on this night, He Shuning, who had always been very greedy, did not sweep all the dishes into his small belly.

What was left on the table by her was the Baihua Jade Grilled Morel mushroom that she had eaten five times in a row in the past three days, and as for the reason for the rest, "This dish has been poisoned in it." ”

The little girl pointed to the plate with a distressed face and complained to the Wu family, but she didn't forget to glance at her senior sister out of the corner of her eye.

In fact, she didn't know which Jianghu Lang had made a half-baked poison that was not very toxic, she could eat it directly into her stomach as if she didn't put anything, but Mu Qingyun refused to let her "settle for a while".

Wu was so angry that the tips of his fingers were trembling slightly, if it weren't for Mu Qingyun's proficiency in pharmacology, these two senior sisters of her son would have been poisoned in their palace.

She asked Mu Qingyun, "Yun'er may see where this poison comes from and what it is used for?" ”

Since Ji Yongan privately told the Wu family that he wanted to marry Mu Qingyun as his wife, the Wu family's attitude towards Mu Qingyun has become a little more intimate and casual, as if he has regarded Mu Qingyun as his future daughter-in-law.

Mu Qingyun's face was slightly red - although she was not an "ugly daughter-in-law", she was still inevitably a little shy and restrained in front of the Wu family.

"It is one of the most common poisons on the market that can kill people, and the victim will have abdominal pain after taking it, and if it cannot be detoxified in time, the victim will most likely have to worry about his life."

"This medicine method is very simple, but it is to dry and grind the fresh intestine grass, and then add a few other herbs, and people who know a little bit of medicine or pharmacology can basically make it, so it is difficult to determine the way to come."

Wu Shi took a deep breath to calm down, "Then we can only check it slowly little by little." ”

She beckoned to Mama Wu, "You go, call all the people in the big kitchen who have come into contact with this Baihua Jade Grilled Morel to the main courtyard." ”

Mama Wu took the order and left, while Mu Qingyun and He Shuning were accompanied by Wu and Ji Yongjing to drink tea and eat snacks.

Of course, only He Shuning, who seems to never be able to eat enough, eats dim sum, and everyone else has only eaten dinner, and dim sum is just a chic decoration for them.

After about a quarter of an hour, Mama Wu hurried back to the main courtyard with the mother of the housekeeper in the big kitchen and all the people who had come into contact with the plate of potpour-fed jade grilled morels.

Everyone knelt in two rows in front of Wu, and Wu began to ask questions one by one.

The first to be asked were the little maid who was in charge of washing vegetables and the fat cook who was in charge of cutting vegetables and stir-frying, then the six little maids who delivered food boxes to the guest house, and finally the suspicious people who were close to the basin, pot stove, and food box during the period.

These "suspicious persons" were all sent to the main courtyard by Mama Wu later-but if there was an absent subordinate who was confessed by the people in the kitchen, Mama Wu would immediately send a competent mother-in-law to each courtyard to get someone.

The personal maids of the second and third girls, the doorkeepers in the courtyard of the fourth girl, the third-class maids in the courtyards of the Song and Chen families, the girls in the second young master's room, the second-class maids in the courtyard of the third young master, the grandmothers of the fourth young master, the rough mother-in-law in the courtyard of the fifth young master, and even a nine-year-old boy who worked in Ji Heng's small study, some of these people were confused, some were panicked, and some were a little unwilling.

Wu didn't care what the mood of these subordinates was, her only thought now was to immediately catch the person who dared to murder Mu Qingyun and He Shuning.

However, all of these people have a legitimate reason to either go to the kitchen or meet the little maid who delivers the food, plus they are all the people around the masters or half-masters of the palace, and the Wu family is not good at letting people be punished indiscriminately.

She frowned slightly, and the five fingers of her right hand tightened slightly.

"Auntie." Mu Qingyun saw that Wu was embarrassed, so he leaned into her ear and said a few words like this.

Wu's eyes lit up, "Then let Shu Ning give it a try." ”

Mu Qingyun then beckoned to He Shuning slightly, "Senior sister, which of them do you think is the most suspicious?" ”

He Shuning tilted his head to look at the maids and ladies kneeling in several rows, all of them half-hung their heads, looking deferential.

He Shuning got up and walked to the fat cook who was kneeling on the far left of the first row.

The fat cook subconsciously raised her head and glanced at the cute little girl who was squatting in front of her.

He Shuning's eyes met with her for a moment, and when the fat chef lowered her head again, He Shuning moved two small steps and squatted in front of the kitchen steward's mother who was next to the fat chef.

The housekeeper's mother has been dealing with He Shuning a lot these days, He Shuning is a Jianghu person, and she does not have the almost innate hierarchical concept of a noble girl, so she has a good relationship with the housekeeper's mother, who gives her something to eat.

Noticing that she was crouching across from her, the housekeeper's mother raised her head slightly and squeezed out a smile at her.

He Shuning gave her an innocent and clear smile back, and then continued to move and squatted next to the little maid who was next to the housekeeper's mother.

The little maid didn't dare to look up at all, but Wu said, "Raise your head and let Miss He take a closer look", and the little maid raised her head with a trembling little body.

"Look at me." He Shuning was not very satisfied with the little girl's low eyebrows and lowered eyes, she raised her hand and poked the little girl's upper eyelids.

The little maid trembled in fright, but she didn't dare not listen to He Shuning's words, so she tried to endure her fear and panic, and forced herself to meet He Shuning's gaze.

He Shuning met her gaze for a moment, "It's not you either." ”

The little maid breathed a sigh of relief, although she didn't know how He Shuning made this judgment, but to be able to clear her name, the little maid was undoubtedly very fortunate and very happy.

He Shuning helped the little maid who almost fell, and the little maid hurriedly straightened her knees and knelt back honestly.
