Chapter 116: The Scapegoat

Fugui Restaurant, Tianzi Box.

Wu Xiu's bloated body, after a period of convulsions, even brought a chair, and with a "bang", he fell heavily to the ground.

The sudden tremor made everyone around get up and look. found that Wu Xiu, who had fallen to the ground, was already foaming at the mouth, her face was dead blue, and her eyes were white.

"Dead ...... Dead manβ€”"

First, the little Oiran sitting on the left screamed with a crying voice. Immediately, the people on the side, including Lin Tang, hurriedly ran over.

"Teacher, teacher......" Lin Tang was so sad that he tried his snort with trembling hands, and finally couldn't help crying.

"Send someone to find a doctor...... In addition, please come first, too. Someone hurriedly spoke.

"Poison! Lord Wu Xiu is poisoned! After a family's face changed in shock, he quickly shouted.

Everyone present turned their heads in unison and looked at Lin Tang, who was crying bitterly. After all, this apprenticeship banquet was prepared by Lin Tang.

"Ladies and gentlemen...... You all sat down at the same table just now, but you were poisoned? Lin Tang raised his head in a trembling voice, "If I, Lin Tang, kill someone, how can I be so stupid and commit murder at my own apprenticeship banquet!" ”

The people around them all nodded silently. What Lin Tang said was very reasonable, if the banquet was poisonous, they should have been poisoned a long time ago.

"That's not right!" Standing aside, Ning Rong suddenly walked out, "If I remember correctly, there must be something wrong with the previous Sixi Pills, and he helped clip it into my father's bowl!" ”

Lin Tang's face was still immersed in sadness, and when he heard Ning Rong's words, he cried even more, walked over directly, grabbed the two Sixi pills that he hadn't finished, and kept eating them in his mouth.

"If it's poisonous, it will poison my Lin Tang, how-"

Seeing Lin Tang, holding the Sixi pills, and the appearance of the wolf eating the tiger's throat, the people present were a little unbearable. A little squire came over, supported the weeping Lin Tang, and kept comforting him.

Ning Rong also became silent. If the Sixi pills were really poisonous, the little governor in front of him should have fallen a long time ago.

"Ning Rong Gongzi, you have been saying that I, Lin Tang, am the murderer of the teacher!" Lin Tang's voice was hoarse, "But let me ask one more question, in the previous time, halfway through the feast, why did Ning Gongzi go to the kitchen!" ”

As soon as these words came out, all of a sudden, the people nearby all turned their heads and stared at Ning Rong with cold eyes.

Halfway through the meal, I suddenly went to the kitchen, could it be that the dishes to be added later were poisoned?

"Don't talk nonsense! I thought it was General Xu looking for me. Ning Rong hurriedly spoke.

"If I'm not mistaken...... You would rather allow an outsider to worship the teacher as your father, but it will only take two days. ”

Lin Tang said more, and in the entire Tianzi box, the atmosphere was even more bad for a while.

"Ning Gongzi, are you talking about General Xu? Could it be Xu Lingjun, a hussar general who had just entered the south? Present, an older little family master, frowned and asked.

"Naturally, he brought me to the south, and I am his staff!"

"That's not right, General Xu Lingjun is still a guest in the Sima Mansion in Huaizhou. But since you have said it, if this is not the case, I will send someone to ask General Xu to come and confront youβ€”"

"Wait!" Ning Rong's thoughts were messy, and he couldn't stop grabbing his hair. If Xu Wuzhu found him and was still pulling some tiger skin, he would definitely kill someone. But now, he suddenly remembered that what kind of go-to guy was clearly here to trick him, and the suspicion of poisoning was planted on him.

"Damn it!" Ning Rong gritted his teeth, "Damn, we were all deceived, this is someone setting up a game and poisoning my father!" ”

"Ning Gongzi, you haven't replied yet?"

Many of the families nearby, as well as the squires, began to look at Ning Rong's eyes unkindly.

If it is said that the most likely to be poisoned, it is undoubtedly Lin Tang, after all, this is an apprenticeship banquet held by him. But now, Lin Tang has proved that the Sixi Pills, which are most likely to be poisoned, dare to eat them in their stomachs. Besides, if they were poisoned in the real feast, why did they have nothing to do?

"Young Master Ning, you have been sitting next to Lord Wu Xiu."

"Isn't there a little girl?"

"Ning Gongzi may not know...... That little lady has served many people, including me. The son of the family who spoke before lowered his head and sneered.

"I told you, this is someone doing the game, and I've been deceived-"

Ning Rong raised his head and shouted hysterically.

No one was afraid of his appearance, and when the official came in a hurry, and found that Wu Xiu was dead and couldn't die anymore, he angrily threw the iron rope, tied Ning Rong up, and kicked him to the ground.

"Say, I can't say...... It's that Chen Jing! He wants to harm me, and he has always had a grudge against me! ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'd rather be a Beijing official, not a white body!"

In the six southern states, the gate valves are numerous and intertwined. Such a small Beijing official like Ning Rong, they don't care about it at all.

"Someone, put this father-killer thief into a water prison for me! After I arrived, I immediately asked for it! ”

Ning Rong also wanted to explain, but he was hit on the head with a heavy punch by a head catcher who came over, and suddenly the whole person fainted.

In the restaurant.

Lin Tang was still kneeling and weeping bitterly. That sad and uncontrollable appearance made many people can't help but persuade and comfort.

"Mo ...... Don't be persuaded. One day as a teacher, a lifelong teacher, Wulin Tang, after three years, I am willing to tie the grass title ring, thank the teacher! ”

……

It's getting dark.

Outside the Five Lakes City, a forest is inaccessible.

Four figures, carefully gathered in the forest.

"Brother Jing, it's done." Lin Tang, who spoke, was obviously hoarse.

Chen Jing understood that the four happiness pills that Lin Tang ate would inevitably be stuck, but in that situation, in order to prove himself, it was obvious that Lin Tang held back.

"Brother, are you feeling better now?"

"Lin Xiao, this kid, forced me to drink a lot of vinegar, and it's already much better."

Chen Jing nodded, "Wu Xiu is dead now, and those gate valve families in Five Lakes City may have to be suspicious of their brother." But it's okay, Ning Rong, the scapegoat, is almost a certainty. Then, when Hu Zun's Restoration Party found out about Wu Xiu's death, they would also be happy when they thought of his brother's letter before. ”

"Brother Jing's plan is almost done."

"It's kind of dangerous." At this time, Chen Jing still had a fear in his heart. If there was a choice, neither he nor Lin Tang would think of such a method.

But it's a pity that the world is chaotic, and a pair of invisible hands push people forward.

"What about the little Oiran?" Chen Jingduo asked.

Wu Xiu was a left-hander, so he let Lin Tang arrange for Xiao Oiran to sit on the left and Ning Rong to sit on the right. The layout of this matter, the little Oiran did not know anything.

"I was not poisoned, I went to the official workshop to record the case, and then I went back to the flower boat crying. That Ning Rong was put on death row, just waiting for the report, and it was very likely that the autumn queen would be beheaded. ”

Now that autumn has begun, there will be a small harvest in rice planting in the south this year.

"Brother Jing, thank you." Lin Tang approached and said sincerely.

Chen Jing smiled and did not reply.

The two of them just stood side by side, looking up in unison, looking at the darkness ahead and the vast mountains and rivers of the six southern states.
