Chapter 118: Stealing Chickens Can't Be Done
The look in Shui Ziru's eyes was uncertain, after so many years of mixing in officialdom, what else could escape his eyes. Just now, when the vase was about to roll out the pill, before everyone had time to react, he noticed that Shui Ninghan's face was so pale, and his expression was only panicked but not shocked, so it was obvious that Shui Ninghan must have known that the pill was hidden in her Lan Xinyuan.
"Okay, just wait for the doctor to come and test it again." Shui Ziru groaned lowly, and his eyes were deep and dark, making it impossible for people to peek into his thoughts.
At that moment, not a single person in the room spoke to each other, and they fell into an extremely depressing atmosphere for a while. At this moment, Aunt Qin kept secretly glancing at Shui Ninghan, asking how Shui Ninghan should behave. And how did Aunt Qin know that Shui Ninghan was already difficult to protect herself, so she could still control her.
Shui Ninghan was upset at this time, and secretly complained that she was too light on the enemy, so that she fell into the trap of Shui Ningyan, which caused her to fall into such a situation now. For a moment, she forced herself to calm down, her brain racing rapidly, and she thought of a way out of the predicament.
After entering the hall, the doctor greeted Shui Ziru and Shen Yuexin, and Shui Ziru said in a deep voice: "Doctor Zhang is tired to check some of these pills, what they are composed of, and what are the effects." ”
When Dr. Zhang heard this, he nodded and said, "Yes, General Shui, the old man will do his best." At that moment, Dr. Zhang took the pills from Shui Ningyan's hand, smelled and tasted them, and finally walked up to Shui Ziru, and said with a little embarrassment: "General Hui, the old man is not good at learning, and he can't tell what kind of medicinal materials it is, let alone the medicinal effect." What a shame! However, according to the old man's estimate, this kind of medicinal material is already very rare. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone already knew it. Doctor Zhang immediately said with a humble face to Shui Ningyan: "The eldest lady is the apprentice of the Holy Lord of the Four Directions, and her medical skills must be extraordinary. ”
Hearing this, Shui Ningyan hesitated for a moment and said: "It seems that it should be the small yellow flower of the rosette recorded in the medical book, but I haven't seen this medicinal material with my own eyes, so I'm not very sure." ”
Doctor Zhang immediately smiled and said, "The eldest lady is really too modest, the eldest lady can even cure the terminal diseases of the world, how can she not distinguish the ingredients of these pills." ”
For a while, everyone suddenly realized, and immediately expected that this pill must be the fake pregnancy pill mentioned before. Seeing that the matter was revealed, Shui Ninghan yelled at Shui Ningyan: "Shui Ningyan must have framed me, right?" You must have asked someone to send these pills to my Lanxin Pavilion, right? ”
Shui Ningyan couldn't help but pull her lips and sneered: "Sister Han, you have to have a solid basis for what you say." Don't forget that it was you who proposed to search my Mingyue Pavilion in the first place, and for the sake of fairness, I proposed to also inspect your Lanxin Garden, and now that Sister Han says this, is it unfair, how can I gain insight into the opportunity to blame you? ”
"You, you, you......"
Shui Ninghan was suddenly blocked and couldn't refute a word. Water condensation smoke is a good point, this is indeed impossible according to normal logical analysis, but if it is the extremely deep water condensation smoke of the city, it is a different matter. It's a pity that she is now dumb and eats coptis, and there are words of suffering, does she want to tell everyone that she framed Shui Ningyan before, but she didn't expect her to be framed instead?
Seeing that the facts were still so arrogant in front of him, Shui Ziru said angrily at the moment: "Shui Ninghan, until now you are still quibbling with strong words, the stolen goods were found in your place, what else do you have to say?" ”
"Daddy, Han'er is wronged, Han'er doesn't know why she found these pills in my Lanxin Garden, Han'er must have been framed!"
Shui Ninghan insisted that this matter had nothing to do with him, and the appearance of pear blossoms with rain was really pitiful. If it weren't for Shui Ningyan who knew in advance that Shui Ninghan was trying to send Mingcui to blame her, I was afraid that she would really think that Shui Ninghan was a good stubble.
Shui Ziru's voice was even more gloomy at the moment, "Evil barrier, since you don't admit it, General Ben has no choice but to send you to the government office, and I will have a good trial for me." When Shui Ninghan and Aunt Xue heard this, they quickly fell to their knees in fright and kept begging for mercy.
"Master, just spare the third miss, the third miss is kind-hearted, how could she do such a thing!"
"Daddy, Han'er is really wronged, do you want to send Han'er to the government to beat him up?"
Shui Ziru was suddenly even more upset by Aunt Xue and Shui Ninghan's quarrel, and immediately ordered: "Come on, send all these two people to the government together." ”
As soon as these words came out, Aunt Xue and Shui Ninghan were so frightened that they screamed, and immediately someone stepped forward to drag the two away.
"Wait!"
At this moment, Shui Ningyan spoke out to stop the subordinates who wanted to take away Aunt Xue's mother and daughter, and then turned to Shui Ziru and said: "Daddy, at the moment, Yan'er is not 100% sure that this pill is the rosette little yellow flower, in case it is not wronged Sister Han, and as the saying goes, the ugliness of Taoism should not be publicized." If Sister Han is handed over to the Yamen, it will not be good for the reputation of the General's Mansion if it is spread out. ”
Shui Ziru calmed down, felt that Shui Ningyan was very thoughtful, and asked at the moment: "What can be done about Yan'er?" In any case, it is necessary to find out who is responsible for these things. The General's Mansion will never tolerate such a pickled thing. ”
"Daddy, don't be angry, don't be impatient." Shui Ningyan smiled faintly, and then a pair of eyes stared at Ming Cui, who looked uneasy, when Ming Cui was thinking nonsense, Huo Di looked at Shui Ningyan's dark eyes that were as deep as a secluded cold pool, and his heart was more and more uneasy.
"Mingcui, you are usually responsible for taking care of the third sister's diet and daily life, taking care of checking the hygiene and cleaning, didn't you find that there are more of these pills in this vase?"
"Ah...... The eldest lady spares her life, it's not the slave who did it, everything has nothing to do with the slave and the maid? Being coldly questioned by the condensing smoke, Ming Cui was suddenly so frightened that he knelt on the ground with weak legs.
Shui Ningyan's lips hooked up a mocking arc, and said lightly: "Mingcui, look at what you are doing, I didn't say that you did this." Seeing that you are so nervous, I don't know that you still think you are a thief? ”
"Slave maid...... The slave maid ......" As soon as these words came out, Ming Cui was so frightened that cold sweat was dripping on her forehead, and her voice seemed to be stuck, and she couldn't say a word.
Seeing this, Shui Ninghan secretly scolded Mingcui in his heart, and threatened Mingcui with his eyes, for fear that Mingcui would not be able to bear it and tell the truth.
Shui Ningyan secretly looked at everything in his eyes and didn't care. She turned her head to Shui Ziru and said, "Daddy, according to Yan'er, maybe Sister Han was really wronged, and Mingcui is the personal maid by Sister Han's side." When something like this happens, Mingcui has an inseparable connection. ”
Speaking of this, Shui Ningyan's eyes flashed slightly: "The most important thing at the moment is to verify whether these pills are fake pregnancy pills first. The easiest way to do this is to test the drug. ”
"Test? Who is Yan'er going to let try the drug? Shui Ziru asked with some consternation. The other people present were also very concerned about this issue at the moment, Aunt Xue, Shui Ninghan, and Ming Cui were afraid that they would become the ones who tested the medicine, so they were so frightened that they hurriedly lowered their heads very low.
Shui Ningyan's eyes swept lightly, and he couldn't help laughing: "Daddy, Mingcui's girl has an unshirkable responsibility, and according to Yan'er, it seems that it is very suitable for Mingcui to test the medicine." Yan'er went over to check Mingcui's pulse first, if she was still a virgin, then when she took this pill, then she would have a happy pulse. This will prove whether the pills are fake pregnancy pills or not. ”
Shui Ziru felt that the method that Shui Ningyan said was indeed simple and effective, but he glanced at Ming Cui, who was already frightened at the moment, and said a little unbearably: "Yan'er, will taking this pill kill people?" ”
"Daddy, it won't kill anyone, but it should lead to lifelong infertility."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked, especially Aunt Qin, who was almost about to fall to the ground. Oh my God, her Mo'er actually took a drug that caused lifelong infertility, how is this good? Aunt Qin's face suddenly turned white, which was very terrifying.
Ming Cui is also scared to be really young, she is only fifteen years old this year, it is the prime of youth, if she takes fake pregnancy pills and causes lifelong infertility, she might as well die. In the future, she will marry, if she can't have children, I'm afraid that no man will be willing to marry her in her life.
Seeing the hesitant expression on Shui Ziru's face, Shui Ningyan said: "Daddy, Mingcui made a lot of mistakes, just making her infertile, not harming her life, it is already merciful to her." If the matter of fake pregnancy pills is not investigated today, where will the majesty of the General's Mansion be in the future? ”
Shui Ningyan's words suddenly moved Shui Ziru, and Shui Ziru nodded and said, "Okay, just do as you say." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ming Cui was so frightened that he got up from the ground and wanted to escape, but the two subordinates next to him were quick and restrained Ming Cui at once.
Ming Cui was frightened and crazy, the bun on her head was scattered, her hair was scattered and she struggled again and again, and said in a sharp voice: "Miss, please, don't harm me, in the future, the slave and maid will marry, and the slave and maid will not be infertile for life." ”
Shui Ninghan looked at Shui Ninghan who was crazy, for fear that Ming Cui would tell the truth in order to make up for her mistakes, and she was terrified in her heart, and the placket of the clothes she was holding with both hands had been wrinkled by her.
"Mingcui, you should be punished for doing something wrong, are you right?"
Shui Ningyan slowly approached Mingcui, with a warm smile on his face. But looking at Ming Cui's eyes, he felt that the person in front of him was simply a soul messenger from hell.
"Miss, the slave knows that she is wrong, please let the slave and maid live, right? Miss, I beg you. Every time Shui Ningyan took a step forward, the fear in Mingcui's heart increased.
Shui Ningyan pretended to regret and said: "Oh, the so-called knowing mistakes can be improved, but it's a pity, Mingcui, the mistakes you made are really not light, if you want Miss Ben to spare you, I'm afraid it's not easy." Unless ......"
When Ming Cui heard this, her eyes lit up, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, "Miss, you said, unless what?" As long as Mingcui can do it, he will do it. ”
An unfathomable expression appeared on Shui Ningyan's face, and he said, "Unless you can provide useful information, then you can make up for it." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ming Cui was stunned for a moment, and then as if he had a nightmare, Gu Zi muttered, "Useful information? Make up for it? ”
Shui Ninghan was suddenly frightened, and his voice was full of threat, "Mingcui, read on the relationship between master and servant, say what you know, if you dare to talk nonsense and say something that shouldn't be said, then I am afraid that you will not only affect yourself, but even your family will be afraid that your life will be guaranteed." ”
As soon as these words came out, Shui Ningyan couldn't help frowning, it seemed that Shui Ninghan was planning to threaten Mingcui with Mingcui's family.
