Chapter 55: The County Lord
"Hey, don't worry, Boss Lu, Tang came to cooperate with Boss Lu with sincerity today."
Sincerity? Tang Zhongyi, who is not as good as a pig and a dog, will also be sincere?
Tang Zhongyi didn't catch up with him when he saw that the road was far away, so he hurriedly said with a smile:
"Boss Lu's business is so hot these days, this position is not enough, and many people's business can't do it, what a pity."
"If there's a fart, let it go."
"Boss Lu can sell me the recipe for this hot pot, Tang has a lot of locations there, how about the silver he earns every day?"
It turned out to be for the formula, and Lu Yuan sneered:
"It's still dark, do your best to have this good dream, give you two seconds, and get out of me immediately!"
"Boss Lu, you ......"
"What, do you want me to do it myself, or do you want Master Tang to see the dark clouds?"
No matter which one it is, it is enough for this old fox, Tang Zhongyi is also afraid of being beaten in the end, but so many people are also afraid of losing face, so he snorted and brushed his sleeves away.
It seems that this bastard is eyeing the hot pot recipe again, presumably there will be some action in the next few days, since he wants the hot pot recipe so much, then if he doesn't give him some gifts, he can't help but spend so much effort. Chu
Lu Yuanyuan wrote down the recipe, deliberately inverting the ratio of fennel to pepper, and then placed it next to his pillow as usual.
After Tang Zhongyi went back, his beard was trembling, since the soft one was not good, there was only the hard one.
Two days later, Lu Yuanyuan returned to the room, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a dark shadow rushing up to the roof, as expected. She didn't alarm anyone, but went into the room to rest as if she hadn't noticed. After a while, there was no movement in the room, and the man thought that Lu Yuan was asleep, so he sneaked in quietly and lightly took the recipe that Lu Yuan put next to his pillow.
After the thief left, Lu Yuan turned over, what kind of master has what kind of minions, this bastard is so stupid to find a thief.
"Hey, sir, you've got it."
The little guy in a night suit presented the formula to Tang Zhongyi like a treasure, Tang Zhongyi smiled wickedly, this is not as far away as you are a few days away.
Sure enough, the next day, the Tang family launched the spicy pot and mandarin duck pot that were exactly the same as those in the Lu Yuan store, and it was too low to add one, these diners only looked at which one had a lower price and a better environment, and where there were so many things, and they all ran to Tang Zhongyi's store one after another.
Although the picture is cheap, these two times Tang Zhongyi imitated Lu Yuanyuan's things, first medicinal food, and now it is hot pot, everyone is not stupid, naturally some people began to talk about whether Tang Zhongyi stole Lu Yuanyuan's recipe.
"Hey, I guess, not only this time, but it's very likely that even the last medicinal diet recipe was stolen by Old Man Tang."
"I'll just say, how can there be two medicinal diets that taste exactly the same."
"The taste of this hot pot is similar. I have to say that this old fox is really a thief. ”
Tang Zhongyi saw people returning to the store, and was proud, when he suddenly heard many people saying that his hot pot recipe was stolen from a long way, and for the sake of his reputation, he shamelessly shouted in the store:
"It's Tang's honor to come to Tang's store to eat, I just heard that someone is suspecting that Tang's hot pot recipe is stolen, that is really wronging Tang, this recipe was personally figured out by Tang. Tang will not deceive you with a character guarantee. ”
It's really like you've been wronged, you're pretending to be decent, and you're guaranteed by your character, your Tang Zhongyi's character is not as good as that, and you don't even eat a dog, but it's okay if you say so, it won't be long before you have to beat yourself in the mouth.
Lu Yao heard these words clearly outside the store, but unfortunately there was no voice recorder in this era, otherwise he really wanted Tang Zhongyi to listen to his words at that time.
After about half an hour, the people in the store suddenly covered their stomachs one by one and cried out in pain, and for a while the whole store was moaning.
"Okay, you Tang Zhongyi, you dare to poison!"
"I didn't, no, I wasn't poisoned."
In the face of everyone's accusations, Tang Zhongyi was frightened, this poisoning and deliberate murder is a serious crime.
Lu Yuan informed Liu Ersheng that he invited the Kong County Order with the major case of poisoning of many people in Tang Zhongyi's store, and everyone waited for the county order to give everyone an explanation.
Since it has come to this point, relying on his friendship with Kong County, Kong County's order will naturally not punish him for serious crimes, if this Kong County order dares to turn his face and deny people, he will make public the bribes he has received over the years, and it will be a big deal.
Tang Zhongyi had a calculation in his heart, thinking of this, he had a bottom in his heart, and changed his timid color at that time, his eyes were far away, and he looked at ease and easy.
"The road is far away, what are you looking for this official?"
Seeing that it was far away and following Chu Ci, Kong County Ling naturally didn't dare to slack off, so he coughed twice to strengthen his courage, and asked tightly.
"Lord County Order, Tang Zhongyi plotted to kill the people of Yong'an Town, I don't know if the adults care or not."
"This official is the parent official of Yong'an Town, how can he ignore such a major matter."
Why is this Tang Zhongyi offended by Lu Yuanlu again, he really has no eyesight at all, and Chu Ci was also provoked by him? But this Tang Zhongyi has his own handle in his hands. It's important to protect yourself first.
"My lord, this is wronging the grass people, Boss Lu, you saw Tang poisoned with that eye?"
This old bastard is still quibbling when he is dying.
"The people who eat in your store are all poisoned, who else is not poisoned by you?"
Lu Yuanyuan now wants to see if he can say black to white.
"There are so many people in the shop, maybe it's the chef's poison."
"But I just heard someone say that he figured this thing out with his own hands."
"Yes, that's what Tang Zhongyi said just now."
Seeing that Tang Zhongyi was still arguing for himself, the people who were suffering couldn't help but feel excited.
"This poison may be a small second-end dish, and it may not be possible to punish it when it is served, and the evidence is not sufficient."
Lu Yuan saw that Kong County Commander wanted to protect Tang Zhongyi, since this was the case, she didn't have to be polite to this county order.
"Slow adults, is it the poison of Xiao Er, the doctor will know after diagnosis and treatment, why should the adults be so anxious to protect him."
After speaking, Chu Ci brought the doctor in the store over.
"Trouble Dr. An."
"Childe is polite."
Dr. An buckled the pulse of the poisoner and thought for a moment, then got up and looked at the hot pot still on the table.
"This is caused by excessive liver fire and injury to internal organs, and the old body just saw that there was too much pepper in the pot, which should be caused by the wrong recipe of the hot pot."
"This hot pot recipe is my ......"
When Tang Zhongyi heard that it was a problem with the formula, he immediately understood that he had been trapped, but if he now admitted that the formula was stolen, the crime of stealing would be increased by one degree. can only be stupidly recognized.
"This hot pot is something you figured out yourself, Master Tang."
Tang Zhongyi remembered his "generous statement" just now, and regretted that his intestines were blue.
Seeing that this evidence was conclusive, and with so many people present, Kong County Ling was powerless.
"Come on, Tang Zhongyi deliberately murdered the people of Yong'an Town, put him in prison, and wait for his fate!"
"My lord, you can't lock me up, you take ......"
Tang Zhongyi originally thought that Kong County's order would let him go, but he didn't expect it to be like a prison, so he panicked all of a sudden, thinking about exposing Kong's order. I saw Kong Xianling kicking him, and while everyone was not paying attention, he made a gesture to wipe his neck.
Tang Zhongyi swallowed the unfinished words, if he said it now, he was afraid that he would not know how he died in prison.
"If Miss Lu is fine, the official will go home."
I didn't expect Kong Xianling to be so knowledgeable about current affairs, so he let this old fox stay in prison for the rest of his life!
After solving Tang Zhongyi's matter, Lu Yuanyuan focused on Lu Ning, and now Lu Ning is only willing to stay in the room and doesn't like to see the sun. Drink tranquilizers every day to fall asleep. Last time, Liu Er just sent her a pot of water, and she bit Liu Er like crazy. Except for Chu Ci, she rejects all other men. Lu Yuanyuan delivers water and food every day, tells her about their life together, and she can still comfort and comfort Lu Ning when she is awakened at night.
Because Lu Yuan was afraid that Lu Ning would be stimulated again when he saw Lu Xiuxiu, he never let her get close to Lu Ning's room. This has become the reason why Lu Xiuxiu cares about Lu Ning, she says every day that she is Lu Ning's sister no matter what she says, and she is more concerned about Lu Ning's situation than anyone else. In order to win Chu Ci's favor, he asked Chu Ci about Lu Ning's situation every day. Lu Ning became like this, it was these femme fatales who sent her to the Tang family for profit. didn't even care about the lives of his own daughter and sister, where would he expect them to be a little merciful to Lu Ning.
Lu Yuan is also blaming himself these days, he should have thought that Lu Ning, who had been looking for so long, was in the Qinglou only two miles away from him.
Finally, after a few days of stable life, Lu Ning's spirit is slowly recovering, and he can occasionally play with Xiao Lu'an, and Lu Yuan is far away at ease.
The days passed slowly, and Xiao Lu'an gradually grew up, and the two little feet stared fast on the ground, and when he saw Chu Ci, he begged for a kiss and a hug.
"Chu Ci, the weather is cold, you add a piece of clothing to Xiaolu'an."
Lu Yuanyuan was drying pepper while shouting at the two people who were playing until they flew up.
"How many times have I said it, it's called Ah Ci."
Chu Ci squeezed his eyes dissatisfied, and said to Xiao Lu'an as if complaining:
"Mother's really don't have a long memory."
This guy is really, he actually said bad things about himself in front of Xiao Lu'an.
Looking at the intimate interaction between the three of them, Lu Xiuxiu's hateful teeth itched, she was obviously better looking than Lu Yuanyuan, why didn't Chu Ci even give her a straight eye.
Lu Xiuxiu still didn't give up, she didn't believe that any man could really resist the temptation.
"Oh boy, I'm so dizzy."
Chu Ci was about to go to see Lu Ning, but suddenly Lu Xiuxiu rushed over from the side, holding her forehead and her delicate clothes, the key was that she deliberately opened her neckline wide, and all the spring light inside leaked out. Chu Ci immediately turned his face away, he knew her intentions, but after all, it was not good to do it with a woman, and he didn't want to make her ugly.
"If you're not feeling well, I'll call Miss Yu'er to take care of you."
Seeing that Chu Ci was still unmoved, Lu Xiuxiu pulled her neckline again and deliberately rubbed Chu Ci's arm. Chu Ci knew that she was not a good girl, but she didn't expect a woman to be so shameless.
"Girl, please respect yourself."
Lu Xiuxiu saw that Chu Ci was resolute, and pulled up her clothes very unwillingly and said:
"Childe seems to be a smart person, my Lu Xiuxiu is one of the best beauties in Crescent Village, why did Childe hang herself on a tree far away on the road, and she also carried a drag oil bottle."
Hearing Lu Xiuxiu slander Lu Yuanyuan so much, Chu Ci completely stopped treating this woman as a human being. Push her away,
"I'm sorry, in my heart, you can't compare to a finger from Ah Yuan."
After finishing speaking, Lu Xiuxiu was pushed and staggered to the ground, hearing Chu Ci say this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
The capital, Prince Gong's mansion.
Since Chu Ci left suddenly, Chu Xin has inquired about Chu Ci's whereabouts in many ways, but those who usually follow Chu Ci would rather be beaten twice by her than speak. She was the lord of the county, and even once disguised herself as a man and sneaked into his palace to look for it, except for the unburned letters on the ash stove on his desk with the words "Great Black Mountain" on them, the rest was nothing.
Brother Ci, I don't know why you left, but if I find you, please don't leave Xin'er this time.
Looking at Chu Xin, who was distracted from the sky, he was pulled back to his thoughts by the voice of the subordinate.
"Back to the county lord, Your Highness has found it."
"Where?"
The bored woman who was lying on the chair immediately jumped up when she heard the news.
"My subordinates saw Dr. An Yun'an sitting in the medicinal food shop in Yong'an Town, and after investigation by my subordinates, I found that His Royal Highness was indeed there."
"Great!"
