Chapter 113: Poisoned Wine
The wild cat was soon caught by the handyman of the treasury, along with two mice.
Both feral cats and rats struggled with all their might in the hands of the handymen, but to no avail.
Li Zhiyan asked the handyman to catch them, picked up a stick outside, took the wine gourd on Guo Zhi's table, and poured some into the mouths of wild cats and mice along the stick.
After a few moments, the rat was the first to lose its support and collapsed to the ground. Not long after, the wildcat also fell to the ground and died.
This at least proves that inside the wine gourd on Guo Zhi's table, there is poisonous wine.
After dousing it with water, it was determined that the rats and feral cats were dead. Li Zhiyan asked Wei Taining.
"Taining, this wine gourd should be Lord Guo Zhi's thing, right?"
"I didn't expect Lord Guo Zhi to be really poisoned, I thought he was scolded to death by Miss Wei Chi.
Lord Li, as for this wine gourd, it is indeed Lord Guo Zhi's thing. But the strange thing is that Lord Guo Zhi didn't come here with a wine gourd before.
When he came this morning with a wine gourd, I asked him strangely. ”
This Wei Taining is obviously a curious baby's temperament, if he really follows what he said, he may indeed have asked Guo Zhi about this wine gourd.
"yes, did you ask something? Does Guo Zhiyou explain why he came here with a wine gourd? ”
"Master Li, I won't tell you a secret. After I asked at the time, Master Guo Zhi was very angry and reprimanded me. Let me leave his business alone.
Now that I think about it, this Lord Guo Zhi wouldn't have known that he was carrying a drug bar when he came here in the morning?
But I don't think there's anything particularly strange about Lord Guo Zhi this day. ”
"Did he drink this wine today?"
"Well, there should be. Anyway, seeing that Master Guo Zhi cherishes this wine gourd, he has always put the wine gourd on his table, and he rubs it twice from time to time.
As for whether he drank it or not, I don't know. Everyone is busy in the house, who can pay attention to Lord Guo Zhi's drinking. ”
"Guo Zhi actually cherishes this wine gourd? So does Lord Guo Zhi usually drink? ”
"Drink, of course. The favorite drinker in this room is Master Guo Zhi. However, Lord Guo Zhi usually leaves here and goes to the tavern in the evening to drink freely. You don't usually drink alcohol here.
Even bringing wine here, it was the first time for Guo Zhi. ”
"That's right." Li Zhiyan shook the gourd that still had a little wine left. Let Xue Rengui hold it, and walk towards another treasury official who was still in the house.
"Master Lee." When Li Zhiyan came over, one of them quickly stood up and saluted Li Zhiyan, but the other still wrote an official document.
"No need to be polite, in fact, I just want to ask, have you ever seen Master Guo Zhi drinking?"
"Well, I didn't. I don't know if Master Mo has seen it. ”
"No, no, I didn't see anything. I'm going to figure it out right here, so I'll ask later. The official with his head bowed looked anxious, and he didn't raise his head in the face of Li Zhiyan.
"I'm sorry Lord Li, that's how Lord Mo is. When it comes to the calculation of grain and grass, if it is not clear, he will continue to calculate, and it is useless for anyone to call him. ”
"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you see it or not. I'll just go and check on the body of Master Guo Zhi.
It's just this adult, do you have any opinion of this poisonous wine gourd of Lord Guo Zhi? ”
"The little official, like Lord Wei, only saw this wine gourd today. When Lord Guo Zhi came with a gourd in the morning, the junior official was also very strange. It's just that I haven't asked Lord Guo Zhi like Master Wei.
Who would have thought that this gourd would be filled with poisonous wine. ”
"If that is the case, then I will not bother the three of you. Yiyi, Yueling, Lao Xue, let's go. Li Zhiyan turned around and beckoned Bai Zhi to them.
There was no Miss Hu Xue among the people who came to the treasury, she was in Qingyun Restaurant and accompanying Miss Ding Yun at this time.
As soon as he walked to the door, Li Zhiyan suddenly turned around, glanced at the three people in the room, and then asked Wei Taining.
"Master Wei, do you know who this Lord Guo Zhi is usually familiar with?"
"I don't know, Master Li."
"Forget it. We took our leave. ”
Li Zhiyan nodded and left the treasury.
"Yiyi, you go to the restaurant. Lao Xue and I went to see the inspection of the work. ”
"Yes, brother." Bai Zhi nodded, and separated with Yue Ling and Li Zhiyan.
On the way back, Bai Zhi looked at the bouncing Moon Spirit and asked curiously.
"Yue Ling, have you had any happy things lately?"
"Happy things? No, Sister Bai Zhi. Why? ”
"It's just that you're a lot happier today. Since Xuanzang left, it is the first time that you are like today. ”
"Really, Sister Bai Zhi? It's like you're all seeing I'm unhappy anymore. I thought I hid it well. ”
"Yue Ling, you were so bad in the past few days, I was not happy to write it on my face, how could I not see it. But why did the moon spirit put aside her troubles and become happy today? ”
"Because....... Moon Spirit figured it out. Sister Bai Zhi, Yue Ling was indeed very depressed in her heart because of Xuanzang's departure a while ago.
I couldn't get interested in each day for a few days, and I didn't know what I was worried about.
However, after going to Jinguang Temple with Brother Zhiyan yesterday, Yue Ling figured out some things. ”
"Oh? What's the matter? ”
Yue Ling decided that she must be good and happy every day. When Xuanzang comes back, he must see a happy moon spirit. Xuanzang must not be allowed to see a sad moon spirit.
The difficulties in front of the moon spirit will not defeat the moon spirit. Just like the story told by Brother Zhiyan, even if the wind blows in 500 years, it doesn't matter if the sun is exposed to the sun in 500 years.
In any case, the next time the moon spirit sees Xuanzang, it must be the best and best moon spirit. Even if he could......
Forget it, don't think about it, anyway, the moon spirit who is happy every day is back, Sister Bai Zhi. ”
"That's good, welcome back the moon spirits who are happy every day."
"Thank you, Sister Bai Zhi. By the way, Sister Bai Zhi, Yueling has felt that she has to find something to do these days. Otherwise, the past ten years will be too boring.
Sister Bai Zhi, you say, what should Yue Ling find to do? It's better to be able to do something for a long time. ”
