Chapter 368: Extinguishing the Mouth

No, this matter is my negligence, no matter what, I will take it all in, and I will not implicate you. ”

Although Qian Qianqian is also playing drums in her heart, she is very determined this year, and Qian Mu has no idea about this matter, so she should not bear the consequences, nor should she be involved.

"Qianqian, I really wronged you this time."

Qian's mother didn't expect Qian Qianqian to be so firm, so she was relieved, and at the same time she felt a little guilty about Qian Qianqian, whenever there was a problem in this family, Qian Qianqian would bear it all by herself, and her mother not only couldn't help much, but also pulled Qian Qianqian's hind legs, which was really ashamed.

Qian Qianqian turned around and walked out, Xue Yi followed behind her, there were still half-pickled vegetables in the yard, and in this situation, this pickle must not be able to be made anymore.

"I personally selected this dish, and I also pickled it myself, how could it suddenly be poisonous? Have you seen any suspicious people sneak in these days? ”

Qian Qianqian was puzzled, and turned her face to look at Xue Yi, Xue Yi has been vigilant for the past few days, if someone really sneaks in, she shouldn't be able to escape from her eyes.

"I've been watching carefully for the past few days, and no one has come in."

Xue Yi shook her head, her brows tightened, and now there are a lot of eyes outside this mansion, both Xiao Mohan's people and many people are staring outside, as long as they have a little bit of trouble, it will definitely cause a lot of turmoil.

Qian Qianqian walked to the pickle jar, took off the silver hairpin on her head, and inserted it into the dish, but the silver hairpin did not turn black.

"Miss Qian, do you suspect that there is something wrong with these dishes?" Xue Yi looked at Qian Qianqian's actions, and seemed to understand something in her heart, and said slowly.

"Since no one has slipped in, and they can't think of anything wrong, it's very likely that there was something wrong with this dish from the beginning, and we never found out, and when we made the pickles, we sold them to those people, and we caused people's lives."

Qian Qianqian pondered in her heart, and said very surely, this poison did not come out of thin air, and there must be something wrong with it.

"But we bought vegetables from several vendors before, and when we came back, we mixed all those vegetables together, and I don't know which ones these dishes are, so how easy is it to find out?"

Xue Yi looked helpless, and explained one by one, her brows furrowed, and her expression was solemn and solemn.

"I know, but even so, these dishes have to be checked, and now I am guilty of nothing, but I can't sit still."

Qian Qianqian also knew about this for a long time, she and Xue Yi mixed those dishes together, and after a few days, a lot of these dishes were also sold, so it was very chaotic.

"Well, as long as it is found that there is a poisonous vegetable here, the source of the poison will be clear."

Xue Yi nodded, and also supported Qian Qianqian, now there is a commotion outside, Xiao Mohan promised for ten days, if the real culprit cannot be found within ten days, then Qian Qianqian will have to bear this charge.

Qian Qianqian and Xue Yi were busy until the middle of the night behind closed doors, checking all these dishes, and just when she and Xue Yi were tired, the silver needles in their hands suddenly turned black.

"If that's the case, the poison is really in the dish."

Qian Qianqian held the silver needle, her hands trembled a little, her face was both surprised and annoyed, her brows were twisted into a dead knot, her face was pale, and her eyes were full of determination.

"We inadvertently bought back poisonous vegetables, those vegetables were mixed with normal dishes, and were eaten by the people outside, and those who were unlucky ate the poisonous vegetables and died, and those who were lucky didn't eat them, so they were safe and sound, otherwise the people who were poisoned to death in Lianzhou City would definitely double."

Xue Yi spoke slowly, and said very firmly, this is also the guess in Qian Qianqian's heart, it seems that the murderer hiding in the shadows is really unguardable.

"Yes, you can't ask for any of these dishes, do you remember the vendor we used to buy vegetables from?"

Qian Qianqian raised her head and looked at Xue Yi, a touch of cunning flashed in her clear eyes, and her brows frowned, revealing an indescribable mystery.

"I still remember the general appearance, but there are too many people in the vegetable market, and several days have passed, and I am afraid I can't remember their specific locations and surnames."

Xue Yi thought about it carefully, and replied truthfully, this is also in Qian Qianqian's expectations, after all, those people are just small merchants and vendors who buy vegetables in the vegetable market, who can have the leisure to remember their names and positions clearly.

"I'll go out to see General Xiao tomorrow, you stay here and protect my family."

Qian Qianqian stood up, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said every word, so calm and calm, she was really not an ordinary woman.

"I don't worry about you going out alone, let me go with you, there are a lot of retinues sent by the generals outside, and your family has their protection, so nothing should happen."

Xue Yi is not very relieved, after all, Qian Qianqian is the target of everyone in Lianzhou, spurned by others, the enemy in the shadows is not terrible, what is terrible is the people who do not know the truth.

"No, my mother is timid, Brother Yao'er's health is not good, if someone sneaks in and scares them, it will be a big deal, with you here, I can rest assured."

Qian Qianqian rejected Xue Yi in one bite, saying it categorically, there was no room for negotiation at all, so Xue Yi couldn't insist anymore.

Under the influence of the pickle shop, Qian Qianqian's hot pot restaurant was also closed, if it weren't for Xiao Mohan sending people to guard it, those people were afraid that they would smash her hot pot restaurant to the ground.

Qian Qianqian knew for the first time, what is terrifying, the previous war on the frontier, the imperial court requisitioned grain, and the people of Lianzhou couldn't even eat, she took out her own grain to help the people, and stabilized the price of grain with Mu Tianyue, so that everyone in Lianzhou had food to eat, so that they would not go hungry.

Now that such a thing has happened, and none of the people believe her, as if they have long forgotten her kindness of the day, and regard her as a profiteer.

On the second day, Qian Qianqian went out, wearing men's clothes and a mustache on the side of her mouth.

The pickle shop had already been surrounded by officers and soldiers, Qian Qianqian went straight to the general's mansion, and just as she got out of the carriage and was about to go in, Mu Tianyue suddenly caught up.

"This son, the general is not in the mansion, I want to see the general, come with me."

Mu Tianyue recognized Qian Qianqian at a glance, but he didn't pierce her, but took the plan and led her to Tianyue Restaurant, where in the upstairs Accord, Xiao Mohan was waiting for her.

"I have found out the source of the poison, just in the dish I bought back before, someone poisoned the dish and asked me to buy it back, as long as I find the vendor I bought the food before, I will definitely have a clue."

Qian Qianqian couldn't wait to speak, she didn't want to wait any longer, her hands were clenched into fists, and a thin layer of sweat broke out in her palms.

"I've already sent someone to check, there will be news soon, you can sit down first."

Xiao Mohan remained silent, there was no superfluous expression on his face, his eyes were calm, and there was not the slightest wave in his deep eyes.

Mu Tianyue also looked indifferent, warm as jade, poured a cup of tea for Qian Qianqian, and her every move was calm and calm, as if she didn't take this matter to heart at all.

Seeing this, Qian Qianqian also knew that she shouldn't be so anxious, and this matter couldn't be in a hurry, if she was not careful, she would startle the snake, and the gains would outweigh the losses.

"Miss Qian, you didn't sleep last night, in fact, you don't have to worry so much about this matter, General Xiao said that he would find out, and he would definitely keep your family safe, so you can eat and sleep, even if you don't do anything, you will be fine in the end."

Mu Tianyue looked like he didn't think it was a big deal, a light smile appeared on his lips, he picked up the tea in his hand, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, and at this time he didn't seem to be in shape.

"When you say that, aren't you letting General Xiao use his power for personal gain? In the end, this incident is all caused by this, and so many lives have been injured, how can I act as if I didn't find anything? ”

Qian Qianqian didn't think so, and ignored the tea in her hand, her heart was already messed up enough, Mu Tianyue still looked leisurely, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became.

"What about the abuse of power for personal gain? General Xiao is the prince, looking at the entire Lianzhou, who dares to compare with him? Even if the emperor comes, you have to give him three points, the key is that he still likes you so much, why do you bother to suffer yourself? ”

Mu Tianyue's eyes were a little ambiguous, he had known about it for a long time, but he was not in a hurry at all, Xiao Mohan's thin lips were pursed, his eyes were slightly drooping, and his deep eyes were mixed with light and dark, which made people unreal.

"Okay, I'm not in the mood to joke with you right now, if you come to see the excitement, I'm sorry, there's no excitement here, if you're not, just take a little heart and give me advice."

Qian Qianqian interrupted Mu Tianyue, her face was a little angry, in fact, she also knew that Xiao Mohan would protect her, but when it came out of Mu Tianyue's mouth, it always seemed that something was wrong.

"At present, those people think that you did this, you are the culprit, and if you don't come up with strong evidence, you can't get rid of the suspicion at all."

Mu Tianyue is not in a hurry, although he is right, but it has no effect, everyone knows this, but if you want to find evidence, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky.

Qian Qianqian was also suddenly deflated, and could only look at Xiao Mohan helplessly, with expectation on her face, her eyebrows locked, and her eyes full of suspicion.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside, Mu Tianyue got up and spoke, and the people outside walked in and saluted Xiao Mohan.

"General, the few traders who traded with Miss Qian before all died violently at home, and their families also died, and none of them survived."

Yu Feng reported respectfully, Xiao Mohan handed over the matter to him, but he didn't expect him to finish a step, and the speed of the people behind the scenes was really staggering.

"Isn't that the only clue broken?"

When Qian Qianqian heard this, she was also nervous, she was overjoyed to find this just now, and now it seems that it is undoubtedly empty joy.

"What about the cause of their death?"

Xiao Mohan remained silent, lifted his thin lips lightly, his voice was low, his sword eyebrows were slightly raised, and his eyebrows were heroic.
