Chapter 152: Stir-fried Pork Liver in Sesame Oil (7)
Guanyin soil, after eating, although it can temporarily resist hunger, but when it enters the stomach, there is no way to digest it. Therefore, those who eat too much will die of bloating. Among these deceased, there are also some who are consumed in small quantities, but have weak digestive function themselves.
Xing Ruyi let him do it, found a person's home, and after discussion, in front of everyone, the deceased's abdomen was dissected. When they saw the dirt taken from their stomachs, the nuisance of the people fell silent. Xing Ruyi glanced at everyone and explained: "To put it simply, this is a food poisoning incident, but it has nothing to do with the restaurant owner, but what others say, the purpose is to bring down this restaurant." Think about it, if this is done by the restaurant owner himself, what good will it do him? Besides, everyone eats fried pork liver with sesame oil, but now it is Guanyin soil that is cut out, if we don't know that there are masters who are doing it, you can't rely on the boss. Is that right? ”
Everyone looked at each other, and in front of the newly appointed official Xie Xuan, they didn't dare to say yes, nor did they dare to say no. Xie Xuan saw that when he saw the time, he came forward to say a few words of appeasement that were customary in officialdom, and asked the officials to disperse the crowd of onlookers, leaving only a few bitter masters with clear minds and strong oral expression skills, that is, the family members of those diners.
Xie Xuan walked up to a young man who looked like a scholar and asked, "Who is poisoned in your family?" ”
"If you go back to adulthood, it's my brother and sister-in-law. My brother had just returned from out of town, and seeing that my sister-in-law was working hard to take care of the family, he took our family to the restaurant for dinner. My father and mother are old, and they eat some dishes that are easier to digest and lighter. I don't like pork liver, so I didn't eat that dish either. My brother and sister-in-law eat a lot, and my sister-in-law loves to eat pork liver, so she is also the most poisoned, and she is now lying at home. My little nephew, who is not yet three years old, now stays in front of my sister-in-law's bed all day long and cries, and asks adults to make decisions for us! ”
"Did anything happen during the meal?"
"Back to the words of the adults, no. The conditions in my home are average, and it is the first time I have been to a restaurant like this. There was nothing unusual about eating. If there is anything unusual, it is that this fried pork liver with sesame oil seems to be particularly delicious. Because after eating a plate, my sister-in-law kept praising that the cook did a good job. My brother saw that his sister-in-law liked it, so he ordered the second plate. The guests next to him also seem to have a special preference for this dish. ”
When Xie Xuan heard this, he glanced at Xing Ruyi, and then said to the scholar: "What you just said, the official has written it down, don't worry, the official will make the decision for you." As for your brother and sister-in-law's illness, although there is nothing the official can do, he can recommend it to you. Oh, it's the torture girl next to her. The shopkeeper of the Ruyi Rouge Shop, you should have heard of it, right? ”
"So you're the Ruyi girl!" When the scholar heard the words Ruyi Rouge Shop, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly walked over and said, "The girl's name, Xiaosheng has heard it." Don't hide it from the girl, after her brother and sister-in-law were poisoned, Xiaosheng went to Liu's shopkeeper's house. It's a pity that after the shopkeeper Liu's family had an accident, he has been closing the door to thank customers, Xiaosheng pleaded many times, and Mrs. Liu reluctantly came out to meet Xiaosheng. Like Master Xie, Mrs. Liu also told Xiaosheng the girl's name. It's a pity that Xiaosheng went a few times, but he was sent away by the young man in the shop, saying that the girl went out and hadn't come back yet. Xiao Sheng originally thought that he would go back later, and then go to the rouge shop to bother, but he never thought that the girl was really busy, and she was in the mansion. ”
After the scholar finished speaking, he bowed deeply: "Please also ask Ruyi girl, for the sake of my poor little nephew, save my brother and sister-in-law." ”
"Don't worry, I'll save you. If nothing else, just for your mother's love and filial piety, husband's wife's affection, and your uncle's sister-in-law's harmony. Besides, my adopted son is only three years old, and I know the attachment of a child to a mother, so even if I don't care about the people around, I will take care of your family's affairs. ”
"Thank you, girl! Thank you, girl! The scholar said, thanking him again and again, and at the same time the person also stepped back: "Xiaosheng, let's go back and talk to my father." Since my brother and sister-in-law were poisoned, my father and mother have not slept for a few days, and my heart has always been anxious. The girl can rest assured, Xiaosheng will go back as soon as she goes, and she will not go into the house to disturb the girl, just wait outside the house gate. ”
"No need, your home address, Brother Chang and Xiao Shengzi should know, when the time comes, I will go over by myself." Your parents, sister-in-law, and nephews all need to be taken care of by you. On my side, don't worry, this morning, it will definitely pass. ”
"So, thank you, girl!" After the scholar finished speaking, he didn't care about his former image, lifted his robe lightly, and ran out quickly.
After the scholar left, Xing Ruyi said to Xie Xuan: "There is not much that Ruyi can do about the things in the palace. Right now, where Ruyi can help, he has tried his best to help. As for the side, it is Lord Xie's business, and it is inconvenient to talk too much. If Master Xie had no other instructions, Ruyi would have said goodbye, after all, he had just promised Brother Chang to help see those patients. ”
"Miss Ruyi's willingness to help see a doctor is a great help to this official. The official is here, and on behalf of the people, thank the girl. ”
"Lord Xie is polite, it is only Brother Chang who promises Ruyi, not an adult. Besides, this illness is not in vain, and it is still necessary to collect some silver taels appropriately. After all, what my rouge shop sells is only rouge gouache, and the utensils used for seeing a doctor and the medicinal materials used for boiling medicine are all bought now. By the way, if the patient's family refuses to pay the money, the adult's government may pay it on their behalf? ”
"Since it is my job, this official has to make a contribution." Xie Xuan said, and ordered the housekeeper to take five hundred taels of silver: "These five hundred taels are my own, and they have nothing to do with the treasury of the government, so the girl will take them for the time being." If you don't have enough, you can come back at any time to pick it up. Tens of thousands of taels of silver, Xie Xuanxing may not be able to take it out, two or three thousand taels of silver, squeeze it, you can still have it. ”
"In this case, Ruyi should represent those people, thank you, sir. You can rest assured that although Ruyi is greedy for money, this silver will definitely not be misappropriated for personal use. If there is any surplus, I will help those poor families on behalf of the adults. Come to think of it, my lord, you love the people like a son, and you will definitely not object. ”
Xie Xuan smiled and did not speak.
Xing Ruyi took the silver from the housekeeper and handed it to Chang Tai: "Ruyi only cares about seeing a doctor, and the matter of purchasing will be handed over to Brother Chang." The rest of the silver was also asked to be handed over to the poor people by Brother Chang, and it was said that it was Lord Xie's sympathetic silver. Just give it secretly, otherwise, I'm afraid that before it gets dark, Lord Xie's mansion will be surrounded by people who ask for silver. ”
Chang Tai took the silver, glanced at Xie Xuan, and said, "Don't worry, I will handle these things." ”
Xing Ruyi and Chang Tai were two, singing and harmonizing, and went out of the government. The fox, as usual, was as idle as a cloud, as leisurely as the wind, as if he was just following Xing Ruyi's side and being a beautiful foil.
After the three of them left, Xie Xuan asked to the side, "How is the investigation?" ”
A phantom dressed in white appeared not far from Xie Xuan: "If you go back to your lordship, this girl is indeed opening a rouge shop in the city." Her subordinates had also checked the origin of this girl, but just like the Yin Gongzi beside her, she was very mysterious.
In addition, the subordinates also found out that this girl and the Yin Gongzi next to her arrived in Luoyang more than two years ago. Later, he opened this Ruyi rouge shop, and the business was very cold at first, until the evil daughter-in-law colluded with the adulterer, poisoned the mother-in-law, and killed the father-in-law, and gradually became known. After that, the business of this rouge shop is getting better and better, but what this criminal shopkeeper is doing is getting more and more complicated.
Fei Jiao Village, subordinates have also been there. Indeed, as the people said, there was evil at work, and it was the criminal treasurer who took action to understand the matter. But there are also rumors outside that it is not this girl who can really use magic and drive away demons, but the Yin Gongzi next to her. It's just that Yin Gongzi is afraid of guilt and is low-key, so not many people know about it. ”
"Did you notice that Young Master Yin just now?" Xie Xuan asked again. Just now, the feeling I had when I first met Yin Chensi seemed to reappear. In the courtyard, there are obviously three words: Yin Chensi, Xing Ruyi and Chang Tai. But he naturally ignored Yin Chensi, as if before the three of them left, Yin Chensi did not exist.
"Noticed! But the subordinates also discovered a strange phenomenon. Even when the subordinates deliberately looked, they would see Yin Gongzi standing there. But if he didn't deliberately, he seemed to disappear from the sight of his subordinates. Someone who is so good, but so non-existent, is simply a natural ninja. ”
"I'm not the only one who feels this way." Xie Xuan's eyes darkened: "The background of these two people, you go and check it again." A man who even praises you is afraid that it is not simpler than I imagined. ”
"The subordinates understand, and the subordinates will investigate again." The phantom said, and hid again.
"Wait a minute!"
"The subordinates are here!" The Phantom Appears.
"Does that torture girl have a special preference for money?"
"What the adults want to ask, is that torture girl as greedy for money as she just said?" The phantom asked rhetorically, seeing that Xie Xuan was slightly displeased, he hurriedly bowed his head: "Judging from the investigation of her subordinates, that girl does love money very much, and the price of rouge gouache in her shop is much higher than that of others." The subordinates never use these things, so it is not clear whether it is really as rumored outside, it is a penny for the price. However, this girl, although she loves money, what she does is what you and I want, and it is a normal business on the surface. ”
"I see, go ahead!" Xie Xuan said and waved his hand.
The Phantom nodded, and vanished again.
Seeing that the phantom was disappearing, Xie Xuan called the housekeeper over again and asked him, "Have you ever asked, Mo Daochang, how many days will it take to return to Beijing?" ”
"Back to the old man, the old slave has already flown a pigeon two days ago, and according to the time calculation, he should be able to receive a reply today. It's still early, and the old slave hasn't seen the flying pigeon yet. ”
As soon as the butler's words fell, a white dove cooed and landed on the roof.
Xie Xuan glanced at it, and at the same time jumped on the roof, he also held the white dove in his hand. On the leg of the white dove, there is also a piece of paper yellow talisman, which looks like the thing of Mo Daochang.
