Chapter 486: Just a relative like me
Qing An looked at the other party and said bluntly: "I didn't say that I didn't recognize you, I also said that the yamen would investigate this matter thoroughly." If it is really caused by the Su family, then all the rice shops of my Su family will be closed. But it's not caused by my Su family, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly! ”
She spoke eloquently, staring coldly at the woman. Of course, the woman did not back down in the slightest, and looked at her as well.
In this way, the two sides reached an impasse.
"I don't believe in the yamen!" The woman would not cooperate.
Qing An was not embarrassed, she asked: "Just ask who you want to judge!" ”
"No one needs to judge, because it's your family's rice that eats the dead!" The woman stopped Qing An from investigating.
In this way, if you want to say that there is no cat greasy in it, I'm afraid no one will believe it. Qing An's eyes drooped slightly, and a trace of calculation crossed his eyes. She knew that if the two sides continued to stalemate like this, things would only get bigger and bigger, and it would not end well when the time came.
But this time, Qing An didn't look at the woman, she turned her eyes to the people.
"Since she is sure that my rice is poisonous, then simply ask one of you to come home and bring a bowl of rice from my Su family. If I eat it and it is non-toxic, then the matter will be handed over to the yamen for trial. Poisonous, the Su family immediately closed all their shops. Qing An was not angry but threatening, and his eyes were sharp.
When everyone heard this, they thought left and right, and there was indeed some truth. But Zhao Yuanying, Liuli and the others became nervous, and they didn't want Qing'an to do this at all.
Qing An walked indifferently through the crowd, and after pointing to three people and asking them if there was cooked rice at home, he asked them to bring it.
About half an hour later, three bowls of rice were placed in front of Qing Anzai.
"This is the three people I chose from among you, and there is no such thing as I prepared it beforehand. I'm going to eat it now, and I hope you will remember what you promised me. As she spoke, the man sat down.
Liuli couldn't stand it, she stepped forward and whispered, "Miss, I think I'll try it for you." "Saying such things, it is not that Liuli thinks that there is a problem with the Su family's rice, but that he is worried that someone with a heart will take the opportunity to poison Qing'anzai.
Qing An was looking at her and smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, it'll be fine!" ”
She picked up the chopsticks in her hand, looked at the three bowls of rice in front of her, and put them in her mouth one by one. She then didn't eat anything more, just sat there, waiting for the time to pass by. The countless pairs of eyes present stared at her in unison, waiting for the next second.
However, an hour and a half passed, and Qing An was always sitting there with no problems.
She slowly got up from her seat and looked at everyone: "Everyone, I think in this case, you should be able to believe that my Su family's rice is indeed without any problems, right?" ”
It's true, there's nothing.
Seeing Qing An standing there in a good manner, his face was shiny, and there was no trace of poisoning. This made everyone think back to the rice they bought, the rice was very good, full and sweet, it was indeed good rice. And after eating it again, nothing happened.
As a result, the people who were still clamoring before now closed their mouths and remained silent as if they had taken dumb medicine. And Qing Anzai also seized this opportunity and continued: "Since this is the case, then this matter will be handled according to the previous agreement, I think you should have no opinion, right?" ”
She noticed the expressions of the people, and most of them began to doubt what the woman had said, and they were going to believe it.
"Third Young Madam, we naturally have something to say. This matter will be done according to what you say, and if no one comes to the yamen, we will carry the body over. "There's a *** coming out, promised.
As long as one person comes out, then the next thing is easy.
I saw a group of people stand up one after another, and at this moment the woman wanted to say something else to make up for it, but it was already useless. It happened that the people from the Yamen also arrived, and they walked out of the crowd and came to Qing An's side, and said, "Since someone died unexpectedly, then it is naturally a matter of our Yamen." The third young lady can rest assured, we will definitely investigate thoroughly. ”
Without saying a word, he quickly escorted the servant forward.
I saw that the white cloth was lifted, and the deceased's face was white, even his lips were white, his eyes were prominent, and the whole person looked very thin.
Qing Anzai's brows furrowed, and he had an answer in his heart.
But she didn't say it, so it's better to leave such a thing to the servant to explain.
After he had examined the corpse in detail, he stood up and said, "Third Young Lady, I have carefully examined it so far, and I have not found any signs of poisoning on his body. As far as the cause of his death is concerned, it looks more like he died of illness. ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a wave around them.
Many people talked about it, and sure enough, this person was not poisoned, it was completely this woman who was lying.
"Say! Who the hell caused you to do this! The catcher scolded angrily.
Frightened by her like this, the woman was so frightened that she knelt on the ground: "I...... I ......" She hesitated for a long time, but never said a word, her expression full of panic.
It seemed that she didn't dare to say it.
"If you do, then I won't pursue today's matter." Qing An said slowly.
She knew very well that the most important thing in this matter was the mastermind behind the scenes, not the woman in front of her.
Seeing that Qing'an was saying this, the woman hesitated, she gritted her teeth, and said the name: "The person who caused me is Boss Zhu of the Zhu family's rice shop!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
No one thought that the mastermind behind the scenes was actually Boss Zhu, but after thinking about it, it seemed to be anything wrong. Zhu's father and son are well-known bullies in the capital, their son is rampant in the township, and Boss Zhu's methods are even more cruel. But all those who robbed him of his business were separated from their wives.
Qing Anzai's gaze swept around, and when she got this answer, she was very staring. Now that the truth is revealed, she wants to see how Boss Zhu lifts a stone and shoots herself in the foot.
"Third Young Madam, I can't help it. My father-in-law has been bedridden for many years, and my son and I can't make ends meet on our own. Boss Zhu came to me, as long as I am willing to kill my husband and use it to wrongfully accuse you of closing the Su family's rice shop, he will give me five hundred taels of silver. The woman had long since lost her previous domineering, and she pulled Qing'an to plead bitterly.
"If I don't want to, he'll kill my son. I was also very entangled, and my father-in-law, after hearing this, committed suicide while I was not at home. You have a lot of adults, you must let me and my son go, she only has me as a relative! ”
