Someone was indeed making trouble downstairs. Lying on the ground was a man who was foaming at the mouth and stiffened for an instant. The man's face was blue-black and his facial features were ferocious.
Baili Feiyue took a look upstairs and knew it was hopeless.
Moreover, he did die from poisoning.
A young man who was following that man had a look of shock and horror on his face, "Your food will kill people!"
The other people eating in the hall were in an uproar, and there were corpses standing straight on the ground. This was simply too... terrible! Everyone's faces became very ugly at that moment, although they were basically people who had eaten here many times.
But I saw with my own eyes that a person who was alive and well before eating the food immediately foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground dead. The shock was really unimaginable.
I can't wait to dig out everything I swallowed.
The shopkeeper of Zui Xianju is used to seeing things like wind and rain, and he has never encountered other troublemakers before. But this was the first time he encountered the 'Dead Man Eater'.
Even the shopkeeper doesn't look relaxed on his face.
But he quickly calmed down and said, "Sir, the food in our Zuixianju is the freshest and the best. It is impossible that he died because of eating our food. But the problem is in our Zuixianju. We will definitely cooperate to find out...
…”
"Why do you say it's impossible?" After the young master was frightened, he aggressively intercepted the shopkeeper's words, "Everyone has died here, how can we find out? With so many pairs of eyes looking at me, am I falsely accusing you? False accusations.
What good can you do to me?"
Before the shopkeeper could speak, a woman chuckled, "Then this Zuixianju thing really wants to eat dead people in public, what good will it do to Zuixianju?"
People in the hall looked out for the sound and saw a graceful and inconspicuous woman wearing a veil walking down from the second floor calmly.
Baili Feiyue, Miss Ling San, is famous. Kyoto is so big and there are so many people. After all, there are still very few people who have seen her.
It was a coincidence, because it was only two days ago in Zuixianju that a foreigner caused trouble here and had her arm cut off. Many people had avoided the limelight for the time being and did not come in the past two days.
When I came to see these things today, no one immediately thought that this was the Miss Ling San whose reputation spread all over Kyoto.
After all, there are too many women traveling in veils.
The young master didn't recognize her at all, "Who are you? Do you want to mind your own business and help this Zuixianju?"
"It's not meddling, it's just telling the truth. Now that something has happened, find out and find out the real reason, and do what you need to do first, right?"
While speaking, Baili Feiyue had already walked to the side of the person who died of poisoning.
When he saw her and was about to reach out to touch her, the young man said angrily, "What are you going to do?"
Baili Feiyue raised her eyebrows, "Look at the cause of his death, why are you so nervous?"
The young man's eyes dodged for no reason, and then he immediately said forcefully, "Of course I'm nervous! My friend was poisoned to death by this Zuixianju dish. It's already pitiful. How can I still tolerate you, who came from someone I don't know where?
Are nosy women messing around with him?"
Baili Feiyue waved her hand slightly, signaling to the shopkeeper that it didn't matter to her.
No longer looking at the person on the ground, his eyes fell on all the dishes on the table that they had eaten before. They picked up the dishes one by one and smelled them carefully. After making sure that the dishes were OK, they also checked the drinks, fruits, snacks, and even the containers.
These tableware and wine bottles.
No problem.
He turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Report the case directly and let the government handle it."
Upon hearing her words, the young master's eyes became even more panicked, but he forced a sneer and said, "Hurry up and retaliate!"
It was also a coincidence that the Kyoto Prefecture government officials happened to be patrolling by. As soon as the waiter went out to report the crime, he brought the two government officials in.
Thinking about a big restaurant with a good reputation like Zui Xian Ju, it is a bit thin-faced in the government. When two government officials came in and saw the posture on the ground, they waved their hands and said, "Take it back and let them do an examination."
That young man won’t do it anymore.
"No! If you want to test it, do it in front of everyone!"
The two yamen servants were doing business and said, "In the past, if someone died in a case, they would always be brought to the official Yizhuang for examination."
"I can't do it even if I say no. I must give an explanation in front of everyone today! My best friend was eaten to death by this dish from Zuixianju. I will never let them go! I will never let them go!"
The young master must seek justice for him!"
We have seen many such troublemaking government officials, not to mention that someone is indeed dead now. But according to the rules, there is no autopsy in front of the public.
Just when the yamen servant paused in frowning, the noisy young master sneered again, "It seems that this Zuixianju is really a big bully in the shop. Does it even have to be protected by people from the government?"
"What a pity! I am not the kind of commoner who can't speak up after being bullied!" He looked at the two government servants with disdain, "I am the brother-in-law of Concubine Wen Gui. I am not here to support you today.
An explanation, don’t talk about you, even your governor’s black gauze hat can’t be saved!”
As soon as they heard this, the people in the hall knew that they couldn't be kind.
Although in Kyoto, any stick could hit several of the emperor's relatives. However, only two concubines were granted the title of imperial concubine in the palace.
One of them is the sister of General Ling and the biological mother of His Royal Highness King Qi. The other is Concubine Wen Gui.
The importance of the position can be imagined. These are not ordinary relatives of the emperor!
Government officials in Kyoto Prefecture have always been the most difficult to do. Once I heard this, my thoughts were completely different from before. After all, I still have a family to support. I really want to lose my job and go to the northwest.
But with so many pairs of eyes watching, I can't say anything and change immediately.
The young master straightened his back and looked confidently at Baili Feiyue, the shopkeeper, and the two government servants who were obviously hesitant.
Baili Feiyue clicked her tongue in her heart.
Her time is also precious, okay? She can spend it here all the time.
Isn't it just a background?
Who is afraid of whom?
spell!
He carelessly took out a sign and handed it to Su Yi, "Take it to the two government officials."
Su Yi was very energetic and positive, "Okay, miss!"
"Two bad brothers, please take a look." To be honest, she didn't look at what it was at all. But since the lady took it out, there must be nothing to say.
One of the yamen servants took the item doubtfully. He originally thought it was just a beautiful ornament, but when he found it, it was made of pure black gold! The delicate and lifelike golden dragon texture was carved on it, which was delicate, compact, and beautiful.
The yamen servant was immediately startled, and looked at the words on the sign tremblingly. His tiny eyes slowly widened, as round as longan fruit, and he breathed a few beats faster.
When his hand shook, the sign almost fell to the ground.
With a hint of crying in his voice, he read tremblingly, "The regent's order is to see the order as if it were the king!"
