Chapter 511: The Wicked Have Their Own Demon Grinding
Zhang Xuan immediately heard something was wrong, "The time from eating poisonous mushrooms to the onset of poisonous effects can be as fast as three or four hours, or as slow as five or six days. How can anyone become poisonous just after eating them? You must have been deceived.
Got it!"
It happened that the waiter who was poisoned was receiving treatment at the medical center next to the Princess's Mansion. After dinner, Meng Qixue took Zhang Xuan directly there.
Zhang Xuan took the waiter's pulse and asked in detail about the symptoms of the poison. Finally, he determined that the waiter was not poisoned by accidentally eating poisonous mushrooms, but had eaten a poison called "thistle".
This poison has a characteristic: its toxicity is not fatal, but its onset is very fast, taking effect almost as soon as it is ingested.
And it only grows in the southern part of Jiang State and not in Daqi. This is why other doctors cannot tell the difference.
After listening to Zhang Xuan's analysis, the waiter jumped up from the bed excitedly, "Our mushrooms are specially sent by the boss from Ningyang County, how could they be mixed with poisonous weeds from the Jiang Kingdom?!"
Meng Qixue pushed him back and said, "Okay, you can rest in peace and leave this matter to me.
But after this incident, you should also remember it. Next time you encounter this kind of thing, you must keep the evidence as soon as possible instead of drinking the evidence and confronting the guests."
The waiter's neck and face turned red when she said this, "I know, I will definitely pay attention next time... Bah, bah, bah, this kind of thing will never happen again."
After leaving the hospital, Meng Qixue and Zhang Xuan rushed to the Yamen without stopping.
The official in charge of the case was named Liu Feng. He had just been called to the palace by the young emperor in the afternoon to pay "considerate" greetings because of the Shuiyunjian case.
When the emperor opens his mouth, his ministers run away and break their legs.
Unfortunately, he spent a whole day investigating the case, and at night he was so worried that he couldn't sleep, fearing that he had done something wrong and would be stabbed by the emperor.
The arrival of Meng Qixue and Zhang Xuan was like a good medicine. His waist and legs no longer hurt instantly. He climbed on the horse in high spirits, rushed to the homes of eight other people with a group of officials in the middle of the night, and grabbed them all.
came out.
After Zhang Xuan's diagnosis, the eight people were poisoned by thistles just like the waiter.
At this time, the accompanying official also found a brand new banknote under the pillow of the guest who made the most noise.
Liu Feng slapped the silver note on the man's head and asked with a dark face: "Here, tell me, you, a salesman carrying a load through the streets, where did you get so much money?"
"I...can't I pick it up? Which law in Daqi stipulates that poor people cannot pick up banknotes?"
The man decided that they couldn't find any other evidence to convict him, so he pretended to be crazy and stupid, refusing to admit that he had received other people's money and deliberately smearing Shui Yunjian.
Liu Feng was so angry. He was angry with the emperor in the palace, but when he went outside to investigate a case, he was embarrassed by a criminal. How could he endure this?
"Come here, take this man to the Yamen for interrogation. When will he tell the truth? When will he be released?"
He wanted to see whether it was his tough methods or the man's tough words!
Facts have proved that reasonable and law-abiding people really can't fight against rogues.
The man entered the yamen and immediately collapsed on the ground, throwing tantrums and rolling around, shouting loudly that he was wronged.
You move him, and he starts shouting again: "Come here, look, Mr. Liu failed to investigate the case, and he will be tortured to extract a confession!"
Liu Feng didn't even dare to touch him.
When faced with a dilemma, Meng Qixue stood up and said, "Master Liu, there is no need to talk nonsense with him. Leave this matter to me."
When dealing with rogues, you still have to use rogue methods.
Her eldest sister is the best at this.
At dawn, Meng Qiyun rode a big orange and quietly arrived at the Yamen.
Liu Feng looked at the young girl in black with a stern face in front of the hall. He was stunned for a moment and asked: "Who are you?"
Meng Qiyun raised his lips, his eyebrows and eyes were full of magnificence, "Meng Qiyun, from Zhaixing Pavilion."
Liu Feng suddenly asked, "You...are you the National Preceptor?"
Oh my God, how could a small poisoning case attract all the big guys in the capital!
Meng Qiyun made a silent gesture to him, strode into the hall, looked at the man condescendingly and said, "You bullied my sister? Very good, very good."
The man was so frightened by her sinister tone that his legs trembled, but he remained strong and calm, "You want to torture me to extract a confession, don't you? How dare you!"
If you dare to torture and extort a confession, when I leave the Yamen, I will immediately shout loudly and publicize all your deeds so that you will not be able to become an official!"
"Torture to extract a confession? You look down on me too much. I will not use such unflattering means."
Meng Qiyun sneered, bent down and raised his hand to gently tap his forehead, and then ordered someone to take him to the prison. No matter how the man shouted and cursed, he never said a single unnecessary word.
The man cursed for a long time, his voice was so hoarse that he couldn't make a sound, but he finally became honest.
It's okay, they are just paper tigers, they look scary and won't really attack him.
The man collapsed on the ground, comforting himself like this.
At this time, two arrogant laughter suddenly sounded from the dark cell.
Looking back, he saw two fat guys, one tall and one short, gearing up and grinning at him with bared teeth.
One of them sipped his saliva and said: "What a fat man. I have been hungry for two hundred years and I can finally have a full meal. Jie Jie Jie..."
Another waved a sharp ghost claw and said: "It's not easy to meet a living person. It's not worthwhile to eat too much directly. Let's play for a few days first, and then we'll talk when we've had enough."
"Ghost!"
The man was covered in cold hair. After screaming, he crawled to the door of the cell and banged the wooden door desperately to ask for help from the jailer.
But Meng Qiyun had already expected this scene and notified the jailer in advance. No matter how much the man cried and begged, he was not allowed to respond.
So at this moment they pretended not to hear anything. They were annoyed by the noise later, so they blocked their ears and moved a few steps away.
The man was desperate and moved step by step against the wooden door. Finally, he was forced into a corner by two fat ghosts.
One grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up, and the other kicked him in the butt. The two ghosts laughed and kicked the human-shaped meat ball in the cell.
"I... ghost... help..."
After a stick of incense, the man breathed out the last four words, rolled his eyes upward, and fainted.
The fat man gave him the middle finger without knowing what he was saying, "Isn't that enough? Real food!"
He hasn’t made a big move yet!
The Erpang sniffed down his nose and turned around happily to claim credit from Meng Qiyun: "Boss, the matter is done. Where is the jade bowl that you mentioned last time that ghosts can eat? Give us one!"
"What's the rush? We'll talk about it later when we get back."
Meng Qiyun replied lazily and directed the jailer to drag the unconscious man out.
A bucket of cold water was poured down, and the man sneezed, shrank and woke up.
Meng Qiyun kicked him and said, "Damn duck, can you tell the truth this time? If not... I can find a few more little ones to accompany you."
"No!" The man shivered and almost peed his pants, "I'll do it, I'll do it all!"
It was the owner of Ruyilou who was jealous of Shuiyunjian's good business and gave me five hundred taels and a poisonous weed to spread the false news that Shuiyunjian's fungi are poisonous!"
