Chapter 357: Maid Peony
Liu Qingsong immediately withdrew his hand, but a clear mimeograph had already fallen on Sun Zhen's shoulder.
Ran Yan walked down from the upstairs, and when he saw this scene, he knew that Liu Qingsong was very familiar with this young secretary of Dali Temple. Although Liu Qingsong has a thick skin, he is not without self-esteem, and he will not force people who look down on him.
"Mrs. Duanliang." Sun Zhen bowed his hand slightly and got straight to the point, "Dali Temple was murdered by Dou Siniang, and I want to learn something from Mrs. Duanliang 'privately'. ”
Ran Yan bowed his head and turned around to make way for him at the top of the stairs, "Sun Shaoqing, please." ”
Sun Zhen is also a paralyzed face, Ran Yan looks a little 'gloomy', and his face is very wooden, about forty years old, burly, a face is very upright, thin 'lips' are pursed all the time, and the facial lines are as rigid as he is, and he is not very handsome in life, but that kind of manhood is rare in ordinary civil officials.
Only Sun Zhen, Yuan Shao, and a scribe and the like came up with Ran Yan.
After sitting down, Sun Zhen motioned for the scribe to start recording, and then asked Ran Yandao, "Mrs. Duanliang is the owner of this medical hall?" ”
"Yes." Ran Yan said.
"According to the victim Dou Siniang's personal 'attendant', Dou Siniang had come to this medical center before she died, and used a kind of cleansing flour that she had never seen before in the medical hall, dare to ask who made such a thing?" Sun Zhen saw that Ran Yan did not drag the mud and water at all, and his heart relaxed a lot.
As soon as Sun Zhen asked such a question, Liu Qingsong and Wanlu were nervous, Liu Qingsong wanted to 'interject' and say that he made it himself, but in case he made a fake and was exposed, it complicated the matter, and when he came back, he didn't kill them, so he should face it calmly, so he felt a little calmer.
Ran Yan said." The cleansing 'medicine' powder is made by my own hands, it does not contain any poisons, Dou Siniang does use this 'medicine' powder in our store, but I can guarantee that there are no toxic side effects. ”
Sun Zhenmuran's face did not change, but Yuan Shaoyin frowned slightly, this Mrs. Liang is too unable to speak, this rhetoric is really not beneficial to herself.
"Did Mrs. Duanliang know Dou Siniang in the past?" Sun Zhen continued to ask.
Ran Yan replied unhurriedly, "I grew up in Suzhou, and I only came to Chang'an half a year ago, and I rarely go out of the 'door', so I didn't know Dou Siniang before today. ”
Sun Zhen nodded, and then asked some questions about how Ran Yan met Dou Siniang today, how she met her, what she said, and what she did when she came to the hospital.
Ran Yan also appreciated Sun Zhen's rigorous attitude in his heart, and looking at his physiognomy and bearing, he was an upright person, so Ran Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
Sun Zhen saw that the scribe had stopped writing and said, "Please Mrs. Duanliang don't go out of the house recently." ”
"Wait, Sun Shaoqing has finished asking, can I ask a few words too?" Ran Yan spoke out to stop Sun Zhen and Yuan Shaoyin, who were about to get up.
Sun Zhen sat back in his seat, "Mrs. Duanliang, please." ”
"I mainly want to ask Dou Siniang's 'waiter' some questions, the case is related to me and my Xiao family's reputation, I have to be cautious, everyone is here, there should be no inconvenience, right?" Ran Yan must remove his suspicions, and guide them to think more elsewhere, if he does not oppose the guest at this time, I am afraid that he will lose the opportunity to grasp the rhythm of the case.
Sun Zhen thought about it for a while, and then agreed.
Yuan Shaoyin asked the 'servant' to bring up.
Ran Yan didn't pay much attention to this 'waiter' before, but now that she is still a beautiful embryo, with a slender figure, although she is not as hot as Dou Siniang, she is also exquisite, and her facial features are not 'exquisite', but there is a sense of brightness when matched.
The 'waiter' was frightened by Ran Yan's emotionless eyes, and hurriedly lowered her head to salute everyone in the room.
"Sit down." Yuan Shaoyin smiled and pointed to a mat opposite the main seat.
The maid glanced at Ran Yan quietly, and saw that she was still looking at her calmly, that kind of look...... That kind of look as if looking at a dead person makes people's hearts tingle. Her knees were so weak that she could barely stand and had to sit down on her knees.
Ran Yan's tone was calm, just like her expression, "What's your name?" ”
"Slave and peony 'medicine'." Her voice quality is actually very clear, like a phoenix's cry, but I don't know if it's because of fear or restraint, it sounds weak and a little shaky.
"Peony 'medicine'." This name matched her appearance a little, Ran Yan paused for a moment and said, "How long did your lady start poisoning after she left here?" ”
Shaoying hung her head, still in a timid tone, "It's about half an hour." ”
"What happens when the poison strikes? Let's be more careful. Ran Yan said.
Ran Yan's tone was no different from Fang Cai, but Peony's 'medicine' trembled, and there was a hint of crying in his timid voice, his shoulders kept shaking, and he 'switched' for a long time before he choked, "Lady······ After leaving the hospital, the lady was in a good mood and felt that she had hope for the future······ Under the rise, he said to go to Zhixian Building to celebrate, to Zhixian Building, asked for a private room, and so on the dish "color" is almost there, the lady is in a good mood, let the slave maid sit down to eat together, the slave maid just sat down, and saw the lady under the eyes red, so she asked her where she was uncomfortable......"
The peony 'medicine' choked up, and tears dripped down the mat in front of her knees," said the lady, feeling a little hot. The slave didn't care at the time, and thought that the weather must be too hot, so she got up and asked the little maid for a cup of soup to cool off, and when she returned, she saw ············ Seeing that the lady's face was covered with blood, she took out a handkerchief and wiped it, the slave maid was frightened for a moment, and immediately asked the little maid to scream, the lady was scared by the blood on her hands and screamed, fainted on the ground, the slave didn't know what to do, just hugged the lady and cried, and when the doctor came, the lady was already ······"
Regarding the remarks of peony 'medicine', Ran Yan was skeptical. In the face of two officials and a Mrs. Hou, Peony 'Medicine' did not have the cringe of ordinary slaves, it was true that she looked very scared, but although her language was a little intermittent, it was very organized, which showed that her mind was still very clear. Such a person, her mother's face is covered in blood, will she not know how to save time and carry the injured person to the doctor?
It will take a lot of time for the little guy to come and go this time, and even if he can save it, the time has already been delayed.
But Ran Yan didn't poke this matter out, and asked about other things, "That is to say, when the food was served, there was a small servant or 'waiter' maid who went in, and besides you, there were other people approaching your lady?" ”
Peony 'Medicine' hesitated for a moment and shook his head, "The little maid just put the food on a few places, and it was about three feet away from the lady. ”
Ran Yan paused for a moment, and when she asked this, she obviously suspected that Peony's 'medicine' killed people, but she didn't take the opportunity to excuse herself! Is it too sincere, or do you really care about the murderer of Dou Siniang? Or is it some other unknown reason?
