Chapter 299 Unknown Poisoning
Rushing into the house, he stood in the main hall and shouted again, but there was still no response.

Bai You was in a hurry, and he didn't care about more taboos, so he went to the side hall and the bedroom to search, but there was no sign of Bai Zhi and the others.

"Where did you go? On the day of returning home today, the two of you are supposed to rest in the house even if you don't sit at the table."

He was so anxious that he stamped his feet, turned around and rushed out again, looking for her in the back garden.

Unexpectedly, Bai Zhi and Shen Changyan were standing by the lotus pond in the back garden, chatting about something, quite happy.

"Little sister, brother-in-law, something serious happened."

The moment Bai You saw Bai Zhi, he was relieved.

Bai Zhi turned her head and asked in surprise: "What happened?"

Bai You walked forward quickly and told her about the poisoning of the guests in the front yard.

After hearing this, Bai Zhi's lips curved into a sneer.

"Hooked."

Bai You didn't understand, and asked subconsciously, "Little sister, what did you say?"

Bai Zhi shook her head slightly: "I didn't say anything, let's go to the front yard and have a look."

Bai You didn't ask any more questions, and immediately rushed to Sanjin courtyard with Bai Zhi and Shen Changyan.

At this time, most of the guests were already in a coma, and the remaining ones were also poisoned. They were all lying on the ground, clutching their stomachs and crying for help weakly. It can relieve the symptoms of a poisoned person.

The guests in the third courtyard were poisoned, and the guests in other courtyards did not dare to eat it after hearing the news. They came to watch, worried that they might be poisoned, and their emotions were very unstable.

Some people even started to stir up trouble, saying that the Bai family opened its doors to welcome guests with bad motives.

Yingze was very angry after hearing this, and retorted in a deep voice: "Our young lady is kind-hearted and allows you to come in to have a feast. How can we harm you? Someone must have taken the opportunity to sneak in and cause trouble."

"Hmph, someone took the opportunity to come in? Didn't you think of it? It can be seen that he had an ulterior motive and wanted to use a knife to kill people."

Bai Zhi and the others came in, just in time to hear this sentence.

The speaker was an old man with gray hair and beard, filled with righteous indignation.

"Young Madam, Your Majesty..."

Yingze stepped forward to say hello respectfully and wanted to introduce the whole story.

Bai Zhi raised her hand to signal him to stop talking, but walked slowly to the old man.

She didn't speak, just stared at him with a calm expression, showing no sadness or joy.

The old man was panicked by being stared at, but he forced himself to say: "You, what do you think I did, did I say something wrong? It's a good thing that you open the door to welcome guests, but you must have thought that bad people would come in, right? Besides, are they bad people who came in? It’s not certain that he is committing evil, who knows if it’s the thief’s cry to catch the thief…”

Bai Zhi still didn't speak, just stared at him.

The old man felt the invisible sharpness in her seemingly peacefulness, and his panic became even worse.

He stared at her blankly, not knowing why, and gradually began to tremble.

"People die for money and birds die for food. But if an old man is your age and he still does such despicable things, I'm afraid the family situation is really embarrassing, right?"

Bai Zhi finally spoke calmly, but still stared at the old man's eyes.

A look of astonishment flashed across the old man's face, and he asked in a low voice, "You... how do you know?"

After finishing speaking, he realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, and hurriedly changed his words and asked, "How do you know how my family is doing?"

Bai Zhi didn't say much, but took out a bank note from her body, waved it in her hand, and asked, "How are these compared to the ones you got?"

The old man saw 100 taels written on the banknote, with complicated meaning in his eyes, but he did not speak.

Bai Zhi took a few steps forward and put the banknote in his hand.

"This is for you to solve the family crisis. As for whether you want to tell me whether someone instigated you to say those words, feel free to do so."

The old man's hand holding the banknote was trembling violently, and his face turned white and red, indicating a more complicated meaning.

Bai Zhi ignored him no longer, but turned around and walked to one of the fainted guests to feel his pulse.

"Mr. Xianghe County, what kind of poison did you get?" Imperial Physician Ling asked softly from the side.

Angelica dahurica: "The poison is not in the food, but in the pots."

"Ah, how do you say this?" Doctor Tai asked in shock.

Bai Zhi stood up, pointed to a dish of medicinal chicken on the table and said, "The imperial doctor wants you to see this dish."

The imperial doctor followed her hand and nodded in response: "This medicinal meal is very authentic. It must have been instructed by a famous chef, but what does this have to do with poisoning..."

Suddenly, he thought of something, and asked in surprise, "Could it have something to do with this dish? Because I have been taboo recently, I don't have meat, so I didn't eat this medicinal meal, so I'm fine?"

Bai Zhi nodded: "Exactly."

"But what's the mystery inside?" The imperial physician Ling had a confused and embarrassed look on his face and couldn't help but ask.

"This medicinal meal is best cooked in ceramic crock pots, but..."

Bai Zhi did not continue talking, but the imperial physician Ling understood instantly, with sudden worry on his face.

Others didn’t understand, so they all asked: “What’s wrong?”

The Imperial Physician Ling shook his head without answering.

However, Bai Zhi was very calm and explained in detail the cause of the poisoning from the medicated diet: "Since something happened in Baifu, I will naturally give everyone a satisfactory explanation. But the pot used to cook the medicated diet is not a ceramic pot but an iron pot! And the mung bean, red, sweet and sour food in the medicated diet Ingredients such as hawthorn are not easy to use in an iron pot, but this herbal chicken dish contains enough ingredients and takes a long time to cook. These ingredients interact with the iron pot at the same time, and eating them will cause abdominal pain and even death..."

Now everyone is frying the pot.

"Isn't this the fact that the White House wants the lives of the guests? Huimen Second Miss is a doctor who knows her taboos and cooks herbal meals in an iron pot?"

"That's it, could it be that the White House was fired some time ago, and this time I want to take the opportunity to take revenge? Otherwise, who will open their doors to welcome guests when they come back? When they got married, they were not so public!"

……

There are different opinions, but they all point the finger at the Bai family and even Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi was not angry, but just listened quietly.

After everyone had finished venting, she spoke again: "If I deliberately harmed all the guests, why would I say it? After all, even the imperial doctor's order didn't see the clues. Wouldn't it mean that no one would know the truth if I randomly picked someone to topple the tank? "

"The fire cannot be contained in the paper, and it will be exposed one day. This may be the cleverness of Xianghe County Lord. Catch the thief when the thief calls out, but it is the best way to protect yourself." Someone responded in the crowd.

Bai Zhi nodded and said with a smile: "That makes sense."

After finishing speaking, she stopped talking to the man and began to perform needles for the unconscious man.

However, with three silver needles, the comatose person opened his eyes and woke up in the blink of an eye.

"Me, what's wrong with me?"

The man asked confusedly when he saw himself lying on the ground.

Bai Zhi smiled at him and said comfortingly: "It was a little unexpected, but it's okay now."

As she spoke, she turned her head to signal Yingze to help him up, and then continued to treat the next one.

Just like that, within a quarter of an hour, all the unconscious people had been revived.
