The daily life of Dali Siqing

Chapter 337 Eat poisonous mushrooms by mistake?

After Grandma Li was exiled in Jizhou, Yang Qingyuan and Liu Wangshu went to send each other without telling Yaya.

If it is said that Granny Li was just aging, then the whole thing has become lifeless now.

At the moment when her son was sentenced to be beheaded and could not be changed, Grandma Li's heart also died.

When seeing her again, Grandma Li's eyes were dim, the vitality in them faded, and the light went out, just like a sentence of walking dead.

After asking to take good care of Yaya, she was sent to Jizhou under the escort of two yamen.

At Li's age, she wouldn't be too embarrassed when she arrived in the place of exile, and she wouldn't be able to do ordinary heavy and tiring work.It is estimated that it is to cook for the local prisoners serving their sentences.

Although this kind of life is not good, and there is no freedom, but at least it will not starve to death!
The Ministry of Punishments has always been responsible for the execution of punishments, and it is not easy for Dali Temple to intervene.

Three days later, Yaya's father, Li Shou, was sentenced to be executed for rape, adultery, and homicide.

The ten-year Dengwen drum case came to an anticlimactic conclusion.

The majesty of the imperial court was once again demonstrated.

In the family, the only surviving Yaya also lived in Dali Temple, fishing in Dali Temple with Liu Wangshu during the day, and living in Yang Qingyuan's mansion at night, being taken care of by the maid at home.However, although Yaya is young, she is obedient and makes people feel distressed.

Yang Qingyuan is also in the office every day, and when he has nothing to do, he also teaches Yaya to read and write.

It seems that everything has settled down.
-
"Urgent report, report to the Ministry of Punishment and the Metropolitan Procuratorate immediately!"

A postman galloped past, "Urgent report!"

Yang Qingyuan happened to be dealing with a criminal case in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, when he saw a clerk hurried in with a postman.

"Master Li! There is an urgent report from Wannian County!"

The postman who followed the scribe immediately handed over a letter.

Li Xun Huan drew the letter slightly, and took a picture of the letter in his hand. After opening it, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and then he returned to normal.

"I see, thanks for your hard work!"

Then let people take the postmen down to rest.

After the two left, Li Xunhuan handed the letter to Yang Qingyuan.

"Wannian County's urgent case, the county schools in the county, together with three teachers and 25 children, were all poisoned, 17 were killed, and 11 were poisoned and unconscious! The Wannian county magistrate immediately reported it to the Ministry of Punishment and the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

The county magistrate Wannian didn't dare to hide such a big case, and it had already exceeded his authority. He reported it to the Ministry of Punishment as soon as it happened, and it involved the death of two teaching officials, so it was reported to the Metropolitan Procuratorate at the same time. .

Yang Qingyuan took the letter and muttered in his heart, Wannian County again? !

The ten thousand year county magistrate is probably busy!
Of course, this is not only a trouble for Wannian County Magistrate, but also an opportunity for him.

Two consecutive major cases are enough for Wannian county magistrate to leave his name in the hearts of the officials and the cabinet.

Although there were flaws in the previous Dengwengu case, it was not in vain or misjudgment.

If this case is also handled beautifully, then the official career may go one step further!

Soon, the two received an order from the cabinet, led by Dali Temple and assisted by the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The two immediately sent people to form a joint task force...

That's right, this name was given by Master Yang, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and he was the only one who would take such a name in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty.

The joint task force was headed by Song Huifu, Prime Minister of Dali Temple, and Yao Jie, the censor of Gyeonggi Province, as the deputy team leader. They set off on the same day to investigate in Wannian County.

Three days later, Song Huifu and Yao Jie returned to Beijing and reported the results of the investigation.

The day of the poisoning was the day when the county school taught, and all the teachers and students gathered in the county school.

A total of 28 people were poisoned in Wannian County School, and 17 of them died.

Originally, everyone thought that this was the time for poisoning the county school teaching or students, but after arriving, they realized that this might not be the case.

On the first day that the task force led by Song Huifu arrived in Wannian County, poisoning incidents occurred one after another in Wannian County.

Not only the 26 people in the county school were poisoned, but 35 other households were also poisoned successively, resulting in 27 deaths and [-] coma.

A poisoning incident spread rapidly and turned into a mass poisoning incident.

Just when people in Wannian County were panicking, they thought it was a plague.

Song Hui's father discovered the clue.

After investigating the drug discovery site, Song Huifu came to the kitchen of the county school and found some white mushrooms in the back kitchen of the county school.

In the land of Gyeonggi, there are few mountains and forests, and there are also fewer fungi.

Therefore, ordinary people's perception of fungi is still in the misunderstanding that those with bright colors are highly poisonous.

In fact, not only brightly colored fungi cannot be eaten, but some plain-looking fungi are also highly toxic.

There is a folk song in Jiaozhou, Dazhou, "red umbrellas, white poles, lie on the board after eating! Lying on the board, buried in the mountains..."

This folk song is widely sung in Jiaozhou.

Among them, the "red umbrella" refers to brightly colored fungi, while the white stems are vigilant, even plain-colored fungi may still be highly toxic.

When Song Huifu found the white mushrooms for the first time, he felt that the poisoning might be related to these white fungi, so he ordered people to cook a pot of soup and got three yellow dogs to feed them.

Two hours later, the three yellow dogs were all killed, and the truth of the case came to light.

The county school poisoning case in Wannian County was just because a canteen chef accidentally bought poisonous mushrooms when he was shopping for vegetables, and then made chicken stewed mushrooms for lunch.

According to the doctor's identification, the toxin of this mushroom can damage the human lungs. Although it takes a certain time for the poison to occur, once it occurs, there is a [-]% fatality rate. If you don't get timely treatment, you will definitely die.

After getting the results, Song Huifu immediately ordered people to search the poisoned people's homes. At the same time, the three survivors interrogated, according to the confessions of three of them who were not poisoned, had cooked fungi before being poisoned.

Subsequently, the police of Dali Temple also found the remaining fungi in five of them.

At this point, the mystery of the county school's poisoning has been solved.

Wannian County Magistrate also immediately posted a notice, warning the people that the fungi on the mountain are poisonous and should not be eaten by mistake; at the same time, they ordered people to collect all kinds of fungi on the market. It can only temporarily control the market and prohibit the sale of all unknown fungi.

Moreover, the case was simple. After confirming that it was a food poisoning incident, Father Song Hui brought the special case team back to Beijing to report the matter to Yang Qingyuan.

Yang Qingyuan felt a little strange when he heard it, and always felt that this large-scale group poisoning incident was a bit abrupt.

But this also happened from time to time in Dazhou, but this time it was the school officials and students who were poisoned, and it was in an important place in Gyeonggi, which alarmed the Ministry of Punishment.

And when Yang Qingyuan heard that Song Huifu used a dog as an experimental subject, he temporarily put aside the strange feeling in his heart.

"Mr. Song, you actually used dogs as an experiment?!"

Song Hui's father was puzzled, what's wrong with using a dog? !
"Aren't you afraid that people from Wanlingmen will come to Dali Temple to make trouble?!"

Wanlingmen is a branch of the former Qin farm family, and the farm family has been torn apart since the establishment of the former Qin Dynasty.

One of them became today's Wanling Gate.

Wanlingmen advocates that everything in the world has its own spirit, and advocates eating vegetarian food and abstaining from meat.

Once in Lingnan Yulin, because of a dish of lychee and dog meat, disciples of all spirits gathered a crowd to make trouble!Difficult to appease!

The contemporary Wanling sect advocates that Jingjing is a rare master in the Yuanhua realm. This person actively promotes the benefits of vegetarianism, and he is very close to the Buddhist sect headed by Shaolin.

Of course, Yang Qingyuan wasn't afraid of Wanlingmen, but only when he met them would he know how difficult these Wanling disciples who shouted that everything has animism, vegetarianism and peace of mind are so difficult to deal with.

But thinking about it, there are only three dogs, so it shouldn't alarm the group of Wanlingmen.

Yang Qingyuan shook his head, put aside the distracting thoughts in his heart, and continued to ask about the case: "By the way, sir, has the person who sold this mushroom been caught?!"

Father Song Hui smiled wryly,

"I caught it, but this mushroom was sold by more than one person. These people are just nearby mountain people. They took some mushrooms from the mountains and sold them in the county town. They just mixed some poisonous mushrooms into them. , not intended to be sold."

"Then I ordered people to confiscate their poisonous mushrooms, gave them a reprimand and fined them half a month of corvee as a punishment, and then let them go."

Yang Qingyuan also nodded when he heard the words, how can he be severely punished for an inadvertent mistake? !That's all there is to it!
"I don't know about the toadstool mushroom, sir, did you keep a sample?!"

"I packed some fresh ones and brought them back to Dali Temple. They are currently in the evidence bag. I will order someone to send one later."

Yang Qingyuan was not curious for a while, this kind of fungus is so poisonous, there should be an imperial court to announce to the world that it is forbidden to buy, sell and eat it.

Moreover, there are Li Mochou and Cui Keqin who are masters of poison and elixir in Dali Temple, so this mushroom may have other uses.

Later, seeing that Yang Qingyuan and Song Huifu's eyes were slightly bloodshot, he knew that he was handling the case overnight and did not have a good rest.

"Mr. Song has worked hard! However, Mr. Song still needs to worry about the detailed memorial to the cabinet, but you don't have to worry, you only need to finish it within three days."

Although Song Huifu had already made a brief report to the cabinet, such a project assigned by the cabinet still required a detailed report.

"My lord, don't worry, I roughly finished writing the memorandum last night, I just need to revise the details and submit it to the cabinet!"

"Thank you for your hard work, sir! You have been running around for days, you have worked hard, you can go to rest earlier today!"

Although Song Hui's father had made some small achievements in martial arts under Yang Qingyuan's guidance, it was only for the sake of strengthening his body, and he could only make great achievements in Qi. Naturally, his mind and energy could not be compared with martial arts practitioners like Yang Qingyuan.

After reporting the case, Father Song Hui left Yang Qingyuan's study.

Although the impact of this incident is not small, it is actually just that the mountain people picked some poisonous mushrooms by mistake.

Just as Yang Qingyuan was dealing with official business in the study, a thunderbolt flashed across the sky.

"Hocha!"

Yang Qingyuan couldn't help raising his head, this year's situation is really strange, even though it's autumn, there are still thunderstorms.

But in the end, it was just a natural phenomenon, Yang Qingyuan didn't care, and continued to deal with official duties!
