"Judging from the symptoms, the cause of Qi Zongbing's death should be ice tomato poisoning. Zuo Qing said to everyone, "However, the core of the problem is, why did General Qi not be poisoned before, but he will be poisoned this time?"

Steward Xu said: "According to the report, the bird's nest porridge taken by the master that night was overwhelmed with the aroma of ice tomatoes. ”

Zuo Qing thought thoughtfully, "That's strange, Miss Fang Cai Qi said that every time the ice eggplant fragrance is weighed and fixed by the pharmacy, there will be no difference." So why the sudden overdose?"

"This—this—" Everyone was confused.

The oppressive atmosphere and unsolvable mystery shrouded the whole Qi Mansion, and the night passed like this.

On a new day, when Feng Yihui saw Qi Ning's dying appearance, the scars on his whole body already explained the treatment he suffered this night.

Feng Yihui was furious, "Peng Peiao, do you still have me as a prince in your eyes?"

Peng Peiao smiled slightly, "Your Highness, why did you say this? Oh, hehe, did you see the injury on Qi Gongzi's body? Come on, what happened to this prisoner yesterday? You actually treated him like this?"

"Your Excellency!" replied Gao Bao, "the murderous prisoner caught in the street yesterday was extremely dishonest in prison, beating the prison officers and insulting the law, and the little one pacified and educated him overnight, and after three hours of pacification and education, he calmed down. ”

"Oh, got it. Peng Xian Ling pretended to be righteous and said, "This prisoner is a friend of the current prince, although the laws of the country should be treated equally, but for the sake of His Royal Highness the prince's face, he must also be polite and courteous to the prisoner, understand?"

"Yes, got it. ”

Peng Peiao then smiled at Feng Yihui and said: "Your Highness, you are not strict in disciplining your subordinates, and you have already criticized him in front of you, I think this matter will be forgotten!

"Huh?" Feng Yihui was furious in his heart, and secretly thought: Did this Peng Peiao eat the bear's heart and leopard gall? Not only did he not ask me for forgiveness, but he directly made the decision for me, where did he get the confidence to not take me in his eyes like this?

Feng Yihui was just about to get angry, Feng Qiuyao pulled the corner of his clothes, signaling him not to lose a big deal because of small things, and not to worry about small things.

At this time, Peng Peiao gave an order: "Ascend to the hall!"

"Might-Martial-" The two classes of officials were lined up left and right, because it was a public trial, many people in front of the hall watched, although Feng Yihui was the prince, but Peng Peiao did not give him a seat, but let him stand with many people, Lu Qifeng, Xu Steward and others were also beside him.

Zuo Qing, Hou Liang, Lin Kaihan and others stood in a corner of the crowd, and suddenly, Hou Liang asked Zuo Qing: "Brother, where did my brother and sister go?"

Zuo Qing smiled, leaned close to Hou Liang's ear, and said in a low voice: "We just discussed, she will go ......"

Hou Liang listened to it and smiled slightly: "It makes sense, it makes sense-"

"Smack!" shocked the four seats, and everyone's eyes and attention were focused on this Peng County Commander. But seeing him sitting down with a huge belly, the four warriors of Mi Xiu, Mickey, Gao Meng, and Gao Bao were lined up on the left and right, Peng Pei's proud face squirmed slightly, and the arrogant tone in his mouth filled the hall.

"Qi Ning, are you guilty?" Peng Peiao scolded.

Qi Ning was already dying, and everyone thought that he would defend himself, but they didn't want him to be weak and said: "Go back to the adult, the little one is guilty." ”

"Well, since you are convicted, then bring your sins together. ”

"Yes. Everyone, including the onlookers, stared at Qi Ning, "The day before yesterday, the villain lost money because of gambling, and asked my father for it, but he didn't give it, so we had a big quarrel, and I held a grudge that day, so I went to the pharmacy to buy a pack of ice tomato incense, and that night I found an excuse to go to my father's room and quarrel with him again, and then I took the opportunity to put the ice eggplant I bought in his bird's nest porridge, I knew that the bowl of bird's nest porridge was boiled by my sister, and an appropriate amount of ice eggplant fragrance had been added to it, plus the ice eggplant fragrance I put in, it had become highly poisonous- ”

"Qi Ning, you be sober!What happened, who made you say this?" Before Qi Ning could finish speaking, Feng Yihui shouted.

Qi Ning looked back at Feng Yihui, and at this time everyone saw Qi Ning's face, which was full of despair.

Qi Ning smiled and whispered, as if he was saying to Feng Yihui, but it was more like saying to himself, "It doesn't matter what matters, the end of the world has come, they are too powerful......"

"There is no basis for what you say, but there is evidence?" Peng Pei asked proudly.

"The shopkeeper of the pharmacy Liu can testify. Qi Ning said.

"Okay, take Shopkeeper Liu to the court. ”

Not long after, a middle-aged man of medium stature and slightly fat was brought to the hall by the officials, and this person was the shopkeeper of the pharmacy Liu.

Shopkeeper Liu went to the hall to give a salute, and his words and deeds were extremely cautious, and his words were more like reciting a draft, "The villain did sell a pack of ice tomato to Gongzi Qi the day before yesterday. ”

"Do you remember clearly, are you sure it's Qi Gongzi?" asked Peng Peiao.

"Not only do I remember clearly, because Bing Tomato is a special medicine, every buyer will register, this is the counter account book of the day, and the signature in it clearly remembers that it is Qi Ning Qi Gongzi. As he spoke, Shopkeeper Liu presented an account book.

The messenger presented the account book to Peng Peiao, Peng Peiao looked at it and laughed, and then showed the account book to everyone, and everyone could clearly see that Qi Ning's name was written on it.

Peng Peiao was shocked again, "Qi Ning, now that the human and material evidence is there, do you plead guilty?"

"The villain pleaded guilty—"

"Wait!"

At this moment, someone in the crowd shouted, and everyone gathered to watch, and it was Xu Guangwen, the old housekeeper of Qi Mansion, who spoke.

Steward Xu squeezed through the crowd, came to the hall, and knelt on the ground, "My lord, I grew up watching the young master, although he is cynical, but he has always been filial to the master, even if there are some verbal quarrels, but I believe that the young master will never do anything against the sky." If someone has to bear the blame, let the old man bear it alone, the master was poisoned by me, and the ice eggplant incense was bought by me under my false name. Shopkeeper Liu, did I wear a hat that day, covering my face, didn't you see my face clearly, Shopkeeper Liu, did you say?"

The shopkeeper Liu on the side was spitting, making a puzzled expression, not knowing how to answer, and quietly looked at Peng County's order.

"Hahahaha-" Peng Peiao laughed, "Old housekeeper, there is a debtor and a master, Qi Ning killed someone, he had to pay for his life, you treat the Liu family well, but the Liu family still treats you as a person, it's not worth your life like this, hahahaha-"

Xu Guangwen was ashamed of what he said in a few words, as if he had talked about his pain points, and Steward Xu didn't know what to do for a while.

At the time of the stalemate, someone in the crowd shouted loudly: "Peng Peiao, your end has come!"
