048 The Truth That Can't Be Seen

By the time Fu Minxiu and Master Fu returned home, it was already nightfall.

Mrs. Fu already knew that there was an accident in the flavor hall, and after this incident happened at noon, the government had quickly cleaned up the scene, and it stands to reason that it would not be enough for the entire Pujing City to know about it in just a few hours.

In the absence of the Internet, no television, and no means of communication, now the entire Pujing City knows that there are guests in the Bacheng Flavor Hall who have been poisoned to death, and there are even rumors that the things in the shops in other Zhuangzi of the Fu family may be poisonous, and it is obvious that someone wants to target the Fu family.

Of course, this is just Shuangzhi's own speculation, and she can't be completely sure what the details are.

Seeing that his father and eldest brother were tired, Shuangzhi felt a little uneasy in his heart, and Mrs. Fu had already asked people to quickly bring tea to Master Fu and them. "Master, what's going on?"

Master Fu rubbed his eyebrows, his face was no longer as carefree as usual, "I haven't found out yet, but this matter is very strange, if it weren't for Lord Qin's trust in the Fu family, I'm afraid we won't be able to come back tonight." ”

Mrs. Fu was taken aback, "The matter is serious? ”

Fu Minxiu drank tea, breathed a sigh of relief, and answered for Master Fu, "Pujing City can't find out the identity of the deceased, looking at his clothes and decorations, it looks like he belongs to a big family, and the poison in it is not an ordinary poison." ”

"Is there really something wrong with our stuff?" Mu Qingying couldn't help but ask.

Fu Minxiu's expression was solemn, "I've tested a few dishes he ate, and the silver needles are all black." ”

Mrs. Fu and Mu Qingying's faces changed slightly.

Shuangzhi frowned, and some places didn't make sense, "Since the poison in China is not an ordinary poison, it is a poison that cannot be obtained casually, so how can it be proved that there is something wrong with the things in our store?" ”

Master Fu said, "Lord Qin said, if this person was poisoned before entering our store, then this case is not difficult to solve, but if something happens in our store...... If you are afraid, you will suspect that someone has deliberately poisoned it. ”

"Who will poison it? This person has neither acquaintance nor grudge against our Fu family, who will poison him in the dish? Mrs. Fu asked with a frown.

"Is someone trying to set the blame?" Shuangzhi carefully recalled everything that happened today, and still wondered why the same dish that came out of the kitchen was poisonous.

Old Man Fu's eyes sank slightly, sighed, and stood up, "Okay, don't speculate about this, let's take a look tomorrow, the most important thing is to find out who this deceased is." ”

Mrs. Fu put her arm around Master Fu, "You're tired too, go back and rest." ”

Shuangzhi was still immersed in her own thoughts, Fu Minxiu called her several times before she came back to her senses, her eyes flashing with dazzling brilliance, "Big brother, can you find out whether those dishes were poisoned before they were put into the pot, or were they added later?" ”

"This is not easy to check, Shuangzhi, do you suspect that someone really deliberately poisoned our store?" Fu Minxiu asked.

Shuangzhi said, "Big brother, do you remember the couple who first found the deceased?" ”

Fu Minxiu nodded, "Remember, these two people behaved very strangely, and then I wanted to look for them again, but I couldn't find them." ”

Shuangzhi groaned slightly, "These two people are very problematic, but we can't be sure of anything now, if the deceased was really poisoned in the store, and it was because of our dishes, big brother, maybe we have ...... in the store."

Fu Minxiu's eyes were cold, "Someone deliberately poisoned it!" ”

Mu Qingying said, "Things will have an eyebrow tomorrow, it's in vain to guess now, why don't we all go to rest first, and talk about it tomorrow?" ”

Fu Minxiu agreed, "Well, Shuangzhi, you should also rest early, Qingying, you and I went to the old lady's place, and the old lady might still be worried at this time." ”

Mu Qingying smiled softly, "Okay." ”

**********

Things seem to be moving in a terrible, unknown, unintelligible direction.

The next day, the identity of the deceased was revealed.

The deceased's name is Huang An, a native of Lucheng, he came to Pujing City some time ago, took refuge in a distant relative, Mr. Guo, and became a steward in Guo's house.

Originally, this matter could have been handled as an accident, because the things that Huang An ate were extremely common in the store, and there were not many guest officers who ordered the same dishes at the same time as him, everyone was fine, but he had an accident, the biggest possibility was that Huang An was poisoned before entering the store, but there was a rare poison in the dishes he ate.

It's Lord Qin who is in a dilemma this time.

sealed the Eight Cities Flavor Pavilion and sentenced Fumanduo to the crime? It seems that the Fu family has been wronged again, but if they are not convicted, the Guo family will not give up.

Speaking of the Guo family, Lord Qin had even more headaches.

In Pujing City, there are three big families that know everything, it can be said that they are the richest and most powerful three families in the city, in addition to the Fu family of the famous family, there is also the Shi family of a great general, and the other is the nouveau riche Guo family, the Guo family is not from the scholar family, a few years ago somehow became the landlord of the land, plus there is a daughter who became the side concubine of the prince, and she walked sideways in Pujing City, and no one looked at it.

Now the Guo family insists that the Fu family's Bacheng Flavor Pavilion has poisoned their relatives, and they have to ask the government to give an explanation, and it seems that someone deliberately spread it, and now Pujing City is talking everywhere about the poisoning of people in the Flavor Restaurant, and all of a sudden, the overwhelming rumors are on the Fu family's head.

Because of this incident, the Eight Cities Flavor Pavilion was temporarily unable to open, and it was closed for a few days, but the matter still did not come to a conclusion, and the people on the Guo family's side relied on the fact that the prince was now in Pujing City, and even more forcefully demanded that Lord Qin should convict the Fu family.

Although Shuangzhi has not stepped out of the house for the past few days, she is also clear about everything that is happening outside, Fu Minxiu did not hide anything from her because she was a woman, and every day when things develop and what pressure is exerted on the Guo family, he will discuss with Shuangzhi, not only because he doesn't want Shuangzhi to worry, but also because he feels that with Shuangzhi, who has always been smart, he may be able to find any way.

"Big brother, has this Huang Anke offended anyone? Is there no reason for this person to suddenly come to Pujing City to join the Guo family? After listening to Fu Minxiu's current situation, Shuangzhi pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice.

"The Guo family only said that Huang An's family was in the middle of the road, and came to take refuge in them, and now that someone has an accident, if they don't give an explanation, they can't explain to the Huang family." Fu Minxiu shook his head, things were more tricky than he thought.

"Since the person was poisoned in our store, then the person who poisoned it must be in our store at that time, big brother, have you asked everyone in the store?" If this matter is someone who deliberately wants to frame the Fu family, maybe there are already guys who have been bribed in the store.

"Do you suspect that the poisoner is the cook in our shop?" Fu Minxiu asked with a frown.

"It's not necessarily that the chef can poison it, but I think it's more suspicious to deliver food to the deceased." Double Solstice Road.

"You're right, after the incident, we were all too sure that we would not be harmless, but other people in the store may not have such thoughts as us, maybe someone was really bought, I'll go and find out." Fu Minxiu's eyes sharpened, and he suddenly felt that he seemed to have overlooked something suspicious.

Shuangzhi grabbed him, "Big brother, this matter can only be found out secretly, not publicized." ”

Fu Minxiu smiled, "I know! ”

Shuangzhi breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Fu Minxiu, and said, "Big brother, do you think this matter has anything to do with the Guo family?" That Qianjinglou just wanted to buy our Eight Cities Flavor Restaurant, but it happened that something happened to happen in the store, could it be ......?"

"Shuangzhi, we have no evidence." Fu Minxiu said helplessly, he had thought about this as early as when the Guo family came out to seek justice from the Fu family, but there was no evidence to prove to the government that the Guo family framed the Fu family.

Shuangzhi smiled bitterly and sighed, so he had to cultivate to Fu Min, "Big brother must be careful in everything. ”

"yes, I know."

After Fu Minxiu left, Shuangzhi fell into deep thought, for some reason, she always felt that some things couldn't be figured out, as if there was a big hand behind the whole thing operating in secret, but who had hatred for the Fu family? Do you have to kill them?

If the person behind this really wants to frame the Fu family, why did he choose a very rare poison, I heard that this poison is still from the Western Regions, and I have never seen it in the south, so it is impossible to convict the Fu family, what is the purpose of this person? not only wants to frame the Fu family, but also gives the Fu family a glimmer of hope to solve the case.

It's messy! Shuangzhi frowned, and the more he thought about it, the more he messed up.

"Double solstice? Double solstice? ”

I don't know how long it took, I seemed to hear someone calling me, Shuangzhi came back to his senses, looked up, and smiled slightly, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I thought about something, I didn't pay attention to you coming in." ”

Mu Qingying smiled gently at Shuangzhi, "Are you wondering how Lord Qin will convict the Fu family?" ”

Shuangzhi nodded slightly, "If you can't find the truth of the matter in a few days, you may be convicted of the Fu family." ”

"Do you want to ...... Looking for my dad for help? Mu Qingying asked.

Shuangzhi was stunned, and then remembered that his uncle was a political envoy, and his power was high, if his uncle intervened, maybe the Guo family would be more restrained, "Has the sister-in-law asked the eldest brother what he meant?" ”

Mu Qingying smiled a little lonely, "My cousin never talks to me about these things, and I don't know where to start, I'm afraid...... Others misunderstood me for showing off. ”

Shuangzhi was a little stunned, since Mu Qingying married her eldest brother, she seems to have lost her previous freedom and ease, she is always cautious in dealing with people, and she has lost her own opinions. "Sister-in-law, the eldest brother didn't mention it to you because he didn't want you to worry, but he didn't say it, it's not that you can't ask."

Mu Qingying looked at Shuangzhi with gloomy eyes, and after a while, she sighed, "What you said was that I should have asked my cousin what he meant, but ...... My cousin tells you everything, I ...... I just think that maybe it would be more appropriate for you to mention it to him than for me. ”

Shuangzhi said, "How come, you are the wife of the eldest brother, I am just his sister, you are the closest person to the eldest brother, sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Why did you become so cowardly after getting married? It's not like you. ”

Mu Qingying bit her lip, "I don't know, probably because I'm afraid my cousin won't like it." ”

Shuangzhi Zhengse said, "Do you still mind that the eldest brother once fell in love with Qin Ziyin?" ”

Mu Qingying's eyes trembled, she didn't need to speak, Shuangzhi also knew what she was thinking.

"Sister-in-law, the eldest brother is not a lucky person, if you treat him well, he will know, if he doesn't have you in his heart, how can he propose marriage, and why hasn't he accepted Liu Miaoru as a concubine until now? If you care too much about the past, you are unhappy, and it will be difficult for your eldest brother to communicate with you, you know? Shuangzhi sighed, she is a human being in two lives, although she is not very smart, and she can't fully see through the world, but she has experienced two betrayals and understands the value of sincerity.

"Shuangzhi, thank you, I'm really trapped in my own maze." Mu Qingying smiled comfortably at Shuangzhi, although she was still depressed in her heart, she knew what to do.

Shuangzhi smiled, "Sister-in-law can figure out that that's the best, there have been a lot of things at home recently, and the eldest brother is exactly when he needs you, with the wisdom of the cousin, I believe that he will be able to help the eldest brother, and he must be a virtuous helper." ”

Mu Qingying chuckled, "You're still laughing at me!" ”

Shuangzhi blinked mischievously, "Doesn't sister-in-law want to be the eldest brother's virtuous helper?" Ah, no, my sister-in-law is now a virtuous helper. ”

"Say? See if I forgive you! Saying that, Mu Qingying reached out to pinch Shuangzhi's cheek, and the two laughed for a while before resting.

"I don't know how things are going, Shuangzhi, I'm very uneasy." After Mu Qingying's smile fell, she remembered the poisoning again.

Shuangzhi said, "Did grandma go to Nan'an?" ”

"I went in the morning, saying that I was going to pray for the blessing of my lord and cousin, and I didn't come back until about three days later." Mu Qingying said.

Shuangzhi's eyes lit up, and he whispered a few words to Mu Qingying, and Mu Qingying nodded hurriedly but showed a look of embarrassment.

"If the old lady knew about this......"

"Just don't let the old lady and mother know, let's go, let's go and prepare!"
