Qin Zhao searched for a long time but couldn't find the switch. It didn't look like there was anything fishy about it.
That being the case, how did the murderer use this kettle to poison him without being noticed?
The cup that Wang Fengyi drank from was poisoned, but no poison was found in the kettle. The maid who served Wang Fengyi also interrogated him carefully and said that she had not touched anything in the house, and she did not know where Wang Fengyi hid the poison.
No one came in or out of Wang Fengyi's residence during the day yesterday, so if the murderer wanted to poison him, he must have gone to Wang Fengyi's residence at night when Wang Fengyi was causing trouble at Wangyue Residence.
The palace maid also said that she randomly found the teacups from a pile of cups at random. Except for the poisonous teacup from which Wang Fengyi drank, the other teacups were not contaminated with poison.
If someone had put poison in the teacup early in the morning, how come it was such a coincidence that the teacup Wang Fengyi picked was poisonous?
So she suspected that the poison was put in the kettle.
However, Wusaku also checked and found no poison in the remaining water in the kettle, so her inference cannot be established.
Qin Zhao stared at the two teapots in front of him, as if he could tell the secrets hidden in these two teapots.
Bao Zhu prepared dinner and went in. Seeing that she was still staring at the two teapots in a daze, he suggested: "Liang Di, why don't you put away the things you can't figure out first and then think about them after you have eaten and drank enough."
Qin Zhao got up to eat and took two teapots with him.
She looked at the two teapots from time to time while eating, and the more she thought about it, the more miserable she became.
Didn't it mean that her brain was enlightened and she was smarter than before? Why did she think the problem was with the kettle, but she still couldn't figure it out?
"Do you think it's possible that these two teapots are equipped with mechanisms?" Qin Zhao's eyes were fixed on Baozhu's face.
Among the four treasures, Bao Zhu is the smartest. Maybe Bao Zhu can understand some problems that she cannot figure out.
"Impossible!" Bao Zhu replied firmly.
Just because the two teapots look very ordinary and everything can be seen at a glance, how can we fix any mechanism?
"I don't think it's possible, but my intuition tells me there's something wrong with these two teapots." Qin Zhao couldn't help but look at the two teapots again.
It was obviously just two simple teapots, could it be that she was too paranoid to find out what the problem was?
"I'll go to the main hall for a walk later." Qin Zhao said, speeding up his meal.
After eating and drinking, Qin Zhao went to the main hall with two teapots.
Xiao Ce happened to have a meal, and Wu Xirou was also there. When she saw the two people, her eyes lit up, and she handed the two kettles to them and waved them around and asked, "Your Highness and Sister Wu can see these two teapots."
Is it fishy?"
Xiao Ce was used to her tone of voice and probably knew what Mao Ni meant. He took the two teapots and looked at them carefully, shaking his head calmly: "I can't tell. The teapots are simple, and it doesn't look like there's anything wrong with them."
Wu Xirou also came forward to take a closer look, then shook her head and said, "I can't tell either."
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhao's lips curved slightly.
It just means that it’s not that she is stupid, but that even smart people don’t know what’s wrong with the teapot.
"Your Highness, take a closer look before making a decision." Qin Zhao looked at Xiao Ce eagerly.
Xiao Ce looked at it carefully and again, but still didn't see anything wrong: "I can only say that these two are just a pair."
Wu Xirou was also observing it carefully, and had the same idea as Xiao Ce: "The teapot is very ordinary, nothing special."
Qin Zhao felt that this was the truth. Everyone said that the teapots were ordinary and they were a pair, but when she first saw the pair of teapots, she felt that they were extraordinary.
"You guys should be busy. I'm going back. I want to rest early tonight." Qin Zhao said, twirling two teapots and muttering in a low voice as he walked.
Xiao Ce looked at Qin Zhao's back and laughed dumbly.
This girl came over and asked him what was so special about the two teapots?
Wu Xirou's eyes were always on Xiao Ce. When she saw Xiao Ce's smile, she was slightly startled.
Perhaps even Xiao Ce himself didn't notice that this was his first smile today. He is a rigorous and restrained man who always puts political affairs first.
He never cared about women, Qin Zhao was the only exception.
At this moment, she envied Qin Zhao. Qin Zhao brought two teapots over, asked them a question, and then left. Xiao Ce also smiled.
"Sister Qin is really an interesting person. No wonder His Highness likes her." Wu Xirou suppressed the sadness in her heart and said in a low voice.
Sometimes she wonders if she would have become the person Xiao Ce cares about most if she had met Xiao Ce first.
But this assumption cannot exist.
"Yeah." Xiao Ce rarely had a conversation, and even his eyebrows became gentle when he mentioned Qin Zhao: "She is the most transparent person I have ever seen."
"How did His Highness and Sister Qin first meet?" Wu Xirou asked curiously.
In fact, she had heard Wu Xiyu say this.
Wu Xiyu also told her that Qi originally wanted to send Wu Xiyu to Xiao Yuan, but she was knocked unconscious that night. Early the next morning, the person everyone saw in Xiao Yuan was Qin Zhao.
Xiao Ce thought about the first time he met Qin Zhao, coughed slightly and felt a little uncomfortable: "What is in the past is in the past."
In other words, this topic can end here.
Wu Xirou didn't want to ask further. She was just thinking, if Wu Xiyu had become Xiao Yuan's guest, would Wu Xiyu have become the crown princess?
No one knows the answer, because time cannot be turned back. Judging from Xiao Ce's appearance, he doesn't want to mention that night again. Even Xiao Ce doesn't have a definite answer in his heart.
Qin Zhao came to the study, bringing a bit of spring to the study. As soon as Qin Zhao left, the study became quiet again, with only the sound of flipping through the files echoing in the study.
On that side, Qin Zhao took a bath and rested early, and dismissed everyone. She needed to be alone to calm down and think about it slowly.
Since she thinks there is something wrong with these two kettles, she should trust her intuition. She just needs a little inspiration to figure out where the problem lies.
The four treasures had a tacit understanding. Seeing that Qin Zhao had rested early, they retreated one by one, leaving Qin Zhao alone in the dormitory.
When she lay on the couch and closed her eyes, she could only hear her own breathing and heartbeat.
Although she didn't have two kettles in her hand, the shapes, patterns and characteristics of the two kettles were all imprinted in her mind.
Her mind was racing, wondering what important clues she had missed.
Before Chen Zhaoxun died today, he told her that the kettle did not belong to Wang Fengyi. Luo Fengyi also said that Wang Fengyi snatched the cup from Chen Zhaoxun. So was it because of the kettle that someone poisoned Wang Fengyi?
But Chen Zhaoxun is not like the murderer of Wang Fengyi. People like Chen Zhaoxun don't even care about life and death, so how can they care about a small kettle?
Thinking of this, Qin Zhao jumped up and placed the two kettles together.
It is also true that these two kettles are put together to form a complete landscape painting. This shows that they are a pair, but were later separated by Wang Fengyi...
