Chapter 270: Lang Zhong is afraid of sin and spits out the truth
Bao Zheng walked out of Xiaohong's room, sat under the gazebo in the courtyard, and instructed Bao Cai to ask Lu Bu to call the Lang Zhong on the ground in the lobby one by one for questioning.
Lu Bu didn't understand Bao Zhengdi's intentions for a while, but he still did as he was told.
The first person who was called was an old Longzhongdi person, wearing a light-colored hat, with a sense of vicissitudes on his face, giving people the feeling that he had rich experience and was very clever in medicine. When he speaks, he also chews the words, looking unfathomable.
It's a pity that Lord Bao's mind is not on him.
After a few brief pleasantries, he was sent away.
Then came a man in his thirties, although he was the youngest among these people, he was also the fattest, and his round belly could even be compared with the belly of Lord Bao, and he would be slightly panting when he walked.
How could anyone believe such a man?
Bao Zheng shook his head secretly, but his face was expressionless.
Lang Zhong, known as Mr. Liu, was the last to be brought up.
This person looked very humble, and as soon as he came over, he was about to kneel down and bow to worship, but was stopped by Lord Bao.
"Sir has been a doctor for many years, maybe he can determine what kind of poison Mrs. Xu has?" Bao Zheng asked deliberately.
Mr. Liu pondered.
"Lord Hui, the poison in Mrs. Xu's place is very strange, there is almost nothing to see outside, if it weren't for the black color in the blood clots that she vomited, and there was a peculiar smell, it would be really difficult for the villain to conclude that it was poisoned."
"Has Mr. Xu ever seen a doctor before?" Bao Zheng asked again.
"I once saw that because Mrs. Xu's illness was obtained from qi, it was difficult to cure it for a while, so the villain just prescribed some drugs such as qi and stasis." Mr. Liu replied.
Bao Zheng seemed to inadvertently glance at the room where Xiaohong was, and saw that one of her small faces was poking out from the edge of the crack in the door, trying to look this way.
"How has the Jishi Pharmacy run by Mr. been doing well lately?" Bao Zheng suddenly changed the topic and asked.
Mr. Liu blinked.
"Thanks to the adult, the villain runs the pharmacy only to treat patients, and the villain never cares about how much surplus there is."
"Mr. Liu is really kind-hearted and benefits the people of Chuzhou City." Bao Zheng nodded in praise.
"The villain does not dare to receive the praise of the adult." Mr. Liu nodded vigorously.
"Sir, you can stay for the time being, the official appreciates you, wait for the official to prepare a banquet, and have a few drinks with Mr." Bao Zheng said.
"This ......," Mr. Liu had a sad face, "There is only one guy who sells medicine at home, and the villain is afraid that it will be too late to go back, and this guy will miss things because of playfulness." ”
"Sir, don't shirk." Bao Zheng didn't give him a chance to speak again, and said to Lu Bu, "Tang Zhuangshi first asks Mr. Liu to go back to the lobby and sit less, and then the official changes into civilian clothes and comes out to drink with Mr. Liu." ”
Lu Bu understood, walked over and made a gesture of invitation to Mr. Liu.
Mr. Liu had no choice but to thank him again and again and leave with Lu Bu.
Bao Zheng quickly returned to Xiaohong's house.
"Have you ever seen clearly, is this person the Mr. Liu who treated Mrs. Wei?"
"Lord Hui, the slave and maid have seen clearly." Xiaohong replied affirmatively, "This person is very enthusiastic, and it is said that he only charges half the price of my wife." ”
A strange sneer appeared on Bao Zheng's face.
It was already dark, and only then did two guys from the wine shop come to the mansion with food boxes.
Mr. Liu has always refused to drink more under the pretext of being unwell, but Bao Zheng is not reluctant, but he just gulps it down.
During the banquet, Lu Bu left.
Half an hour later, Lu Bu came back and whispered something in Bao Zheng's ear.
Bao Zheng nodded.
Mr. Liu tried to listen, but heard nothing.
"Sir, please wait, this official will go and come back." With that, Bao Zheng stood up, patted his huge belly and walked to the backyard.
In the courtyard at the back, a man of only fifteen or sixteen years old stood there with a panicked face.
He was a pharmacy guy hired by Mr. Liu.
He didn't know how he had been "invited" here by the officer. It wasn't until Master Bao appeared and asked about Mrs. Wei that he seemed to have a premonition that something was wrong.
"The villain only saw Mrs. Wei come to buy medicine, and then was taken into the back hall by my husband, during which the villain went to get the medicine, and heard the two talking and laughing in the house, it seemed to be very close, and the villain didn't dare to listen more, so he left." The young man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said.
"Then when did Mrs. Wei leave, and what did she take?" Bao Zheng asked.
"About, about an hour later, Mrs. Wei left with a packet of medicine in her hand, and my husband sent it far away, as if he was telling something."
Bao Zheng nodded.
Now, it is basically certain that the poison that Hou Yinping gave to Mrs. Xu is from Mr. Liu's Jishi Pharmacy, as long as he can get the truth out of Mr. Liu's mouth, everything can be revealed.
"You go back first, and wait for the summons at any time." Bao Zheng said.
Back in the lobby, Mr. Liu was still waiting here restlessly.
Seeing Bao Zheng come back, Mr. Liu looked very anxious.
"It's getting late, please let the villain go back, the villain can't rest assured that he can't go down to the shop."
"Sir, just relax, have another drink, and the official will personally escort Mr. back." Bao Zheng took the wine glass and drank it all, and then raised the wine glass to Mr. Liu and motioned for him to drink the wine as well.
Mr. Liu had no choice but to pick up his glass.
Before the wine glass touched his lips, Bao Zheng suddenly asked for no reason: "What kind of medicine did Mrs. Wei take in Mr. today?" ”
The wine glass shook in Mr. Liu's hand, and most of the wine in it was instantly spilled.
"Where, which Mrs. Wei?"
"It's the lady of the Futai family who has died." Bao Zheng reminded, "Mr. Fei doesn't know? ”
Mr. Liu's face changed rapidly, but he quickly calmed down again.
"The villain receives too many patients on weekdays, if you meet or can recognize each other, the adult mentions it so rashly, the villain really can't remember it for a while."
Bao Zheng smiled, suddenly made a move, and knocked over the wine glass in Mr. Liu's hand to the ground.
"Mr. has a good memory, then Mrs. Wei lingered with you in your room for a long time, and then took the poison from your hand, but you said that you didn't recognize it, do you dare to think that Lord Ben is easy to deceive?" Bao Zheng said, glancing at Lu Bu who was standing on the side.
Lu Bu immediately understood, took out the halberd and put it on the table in front of Mr. Liu with a "snap".
The cups and plates on the table jumped up instantly, and the soup that flowed down wet Mr. Liu's robe.
"This halberd just killed Xu Jing's house, is Mr. Liu interested in giving it a try?" Lu Bu grabbed Mr. Liu's hair and lifted him from his seat.
Mr. Liu collapsed instantly, and knelt on the ground with a "plop".
"The big and the big don't get angry, and the little and the little tell the truth."
Bao Zheng motioned for Lu Bu to let go of him, and he sat back in his seat.
Mr. Liu no longer dared to hide it: "The villain still met Mrs. Wei when he went to her home to see her, and he was very infatuated with her, and later went to the house a few times, but Mrs. Wei refused to agree." Early this morning, Mrs. Wei suddenly went to the pharmacy to buy poison, saying that there were rats in the house, but the villain just didn't believe it, and brought it into the house under the pretext that the medicine was in the back hall. Later, the villain couldn't resist the temptation and her soft grinding and hard bubbles, and made an exception to give her a bag of poison. Soon he heard about Mrs. Xu's poisoning, and the villain found that the poison in Mrs. Xu was the same as the villain's to Mrs. Wei. ”
Some people died, but not completely......
