Dali Temple Conspiracy Records

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, and hurried to Gu Chengzhu's residence.I saw Gu Chengzhu lying on the edge of the chair in the inner room, he had already passed away, and there were traces of vomiting at the corner of his mouth.There was also a wine glass overturned in his hand.

"what happened?"

Li Quan's tone was serious, and the maidservant, who was already panicked, was so frightened that she couldn't keep up with the house. She stammered and said, "The second young master has been restless at night, and he became very nervous when he knew that the third young master was entertaining Si Zhi. I heard that the third young master was out Afterwards, his face changed drastically, and then he let Xiao Hong and I go out, and he entered the house by himself. Not long after we heard a thud in the room, the young master didn't answer us when we asked, and pushed the door open. Looking at it, I found that the young master was lying there, throwing up, still unable to breathe, and soon... woo woo..."

Under Li Quan's signal, Yu Wei stepped forward to inspect Gu Chengzhu's body, and sniffed the remaining wine, "Is it the medicinal wine that the second young master often drinks?"

The servant girl hurriedly said: "It should be. The second young master has always liked to make medicinal wine by himself, and he would drink a few more glasses when he usually has any troubles. Just, just put it on the shelf over there."

Following the direction the maid pointed, Yu Wei found Gu Chengzhu's jar of medicinal wine on the shelf, opened it and smelled it, and then said to Li Quan, "Si Zhi, this medicinal wine is mixed with daughter's red."

Li Quan also stepped forward to smell it, and indeed there was a scent of daughter red wine mixed with it.

Aconitum-like traditional Chinese medicines have a spicy and spicy taste, and Nurhong contains six flavors of sour, sweet, bitter, astringent, fresh and spicy, which can indeed cover up the taste of aconitum, which is confusing.Li Quan pondered for a moment, then ordered solemnly: "Everything remains as it is, everyone leaves, and the yard is sealed. Send someone to report to Wannian County."

After making arrangements, he led Bai Sanxiu back to the courtyard where the guest room was located, and his voice became gentle again: "There are a lot of things tonight, you should go to bed first."

Bai Sanxiu looked up at him, "Si Zhi will definitely not fall asleep, right? Then I will accompany you."

Li Quan didn't refuse either, just smiled and said nothing.

……

The next day, Bai Sanxiu woke up leisurely and found herself sleeping on the bed in her guest room.Seeing that she had woken up, the little maid who served her said with a smile, "Young lady is awake. I'll go and bring you breakfast."

Seeing that narrow smile, Bai Sanxiu suddenly realized something.Sure enough, the little maid was still a little uncomfortable seeing her when she came back, and said, "Don't worry, girl. It was Si Zhi who brought you back, but I took off your coat, shoes and socks for you."

"..."

Silence is a virtue understand? !
Bai Sanxiu had no choice but to pretend she didn't hear, and after a brief wash, she ate and asked, "How is the mansion? Has the official of Wannian County come?"

The little servant girl said seriously: "In the middle of the night, Captain Xu came, and seemed to be leading a group of yamen servants to search the second young master's yard."

"Where's Si Zhi?"

"It's also in the second young master's yard."

Bai Sanxiu quickly stuffed two more bites of food, and rushed to Gu Chengzhu's courtyard.On the way, she sorted out her thoughts a little bit.

Gu Xinrong showed signs of chronic poisoning two years before his death. Someone in the Jishitang pharmacy stole the medicine on the medicine scale. He died of poisoning with medicinal wine.

Could it be that Gu Chengzhu did all of this?Afraid that what I did in the pharmacy would be discovered, and also heard that Gu Mingyuan invited Li Quan to a banquet, and originally wanted to fight for the family property but turned into poisoning the court order, so he panicked and committed suicide by taking poison?
At this moment in Gu Chengzhu's courtyard, Li Quan was talking to Xu Chaozong.Seeing her coming, his serious face relaxed slightly, "Wake up."

Bai Sanxiu saw the blue and black under his eyes at a glance, and felt a little distressed.But due to the presence of Xu Chaozong, it is hard to say much.

Li Guan nodded towards Xu Chaozong, turned around and walked out with her.

"Have you eaten?"

"Tired?"

As soon as they left the yard, the two expressed concern at the same time.Then Li Quan smiled and said: "It's okay. You should have eaten, right? Eat some more with me."

"Ok!"
