The concubine Jiaojiao has high means, but the sick prince does not flirt

Chapter 300 The cook poisoned
Bai Zhi stood up, looked at the person who said she was a thief calling "Catch the thief" again, and smiled coldly: "I can completely ignore it, but what's the point of writing and acting yourself? Tell me, what is your background."

The man shrank his neck: "I can have some background, it's just talking."

Bai Zhi nodded slightly, and hummed softly: "I hope so."

As soon as she finished speaking, the guards from Jingzhaoyi's mansion came.

"I heard that a poisoning case occurred here. I brought someone to investigate the case."

The leading guard walked up to Shen Changyan and handed over his hand to report.

Shen Changyan's face was as heavy as water, and he said in a cold voice, "Your news is quite timely."

The head officer looked terrified, and hurriedly explained: "Report to Mr. Jing Zhaoyi, the little ones dare not neglect official duties."

Shen Changyan said indifferently: "I'm just an agent of Jing Zhaoyi, and I'm in my father-in-law's house. I should avoid it. You can investigate the case however you want. Just investigate it. In short, the poisoner must not be a fish that slips through the net."

The leading officer respectfully replied: "Lord Jing Zhaoyi, don't worry, the little one will surely live up to his high expectations."

Shen Changyan nodded slightly and said nothing more.

Bai Zhi didn't seem to have heard the conversation between the two. She wrote a prescription and handed it to Yingze: "Prepare the medicine according to the prescription, count the number of people, and no one will distribute six doses of medicine."

Yingze agreed and went to do it immediately.

Bai Zhi asked the maids to take off all the medicated chicken on the table, so that the guests could continue to eat and drink without worry.

"Mrs. Prince, can you guarantee that the other dishes are fine?" someone asked aloud.

Bai Zhi smiled and did not speak, but took out a silver needle from her bosom and handed it to Ying Yi who was standing beside her.

Yingyi understood, took the silver needle and walked to the dining table, tested the poison one by one, and the silver needle didn't change color.

All the guests hesitated and sat back in their seats again.

At this time, the chief officer had already understood the poisoning case clearly.

He walked up to Bai Zhi, saluted and asked, "Mrs. Shizi, are you sure it was the medicinal food stewed in the iron pot in the mansion that caused the guests to be poisoned?"

Bai Zhi glanced at it lightly and asked calmly: "Do you have any other opinions?"

The lead officer hurriedly shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't dare, I just make sure so we can move forward."

"I never lie." Bai Zhi said seriously.

He saluted and apologized for the head officer, and then ordered the other officers to go to the White Mansion kitchen immediately, and restrain everyone who was helping the kitchen today, and no one was allowed to let go.

Bai Zhi didn't say anything, but ordered someone to move a chair, and sat in the courtyard to greet the guests to eat and drink.

Due to the previous poisoning incident, none of the guests had the intention to eat. The reason why they did not leave was to see the outcome of the poisoning case.

The first officer was very efficient in his work, and within two-quarters of an hour, he came back with a cook under escort.

"Master Jing Zhaoyi, this person is the poisoner."

Shen Changyan frowned slightly and ordered in a deep voice: "I am just acting as an agent for the Jingzhaoyi Mansion. You can call me Shen Shizi. Tell me, why do you conclude that he is the poisoner?"

The head officer nodded, turned to look at the cook, and ordered sharply: "Did you hear Shen Shizi's question? Seriously!"

The cook fell to his knees with a thud, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Damn the little one, he was obsessed with ghosts for a while, and greedy for people's money, so he was ordered to cook medicinal food in an iron pot... Shen Shizi, second miss, please forgive me, the little one is 80 Old lady, there are children waiting to be raised..."

"Tell me, who ordered you to cook the medicinal food in an iron pot?" the leading guard asked.

A wry smile flashed in the cook's eyes, he turned his head to look at the gate of the courtyard, and replied: "I went out to buy ingredients with the comprador, because the second lady returned home today, and the banquet was not sloppy, so I went out to pick the ingredients myself. In a secluded alley, the comprador suddenly fainted, and then a tall, thin man wearing a mask came out and gave me a hundred gold and a prescription for medicinal food, and asked me to cook it in an iron pot."

The leading guard ordered loudly: "Come here, bring me the comprador."

The guards promised, and soon brought the comprador of the Baifu.

"Is what the cook said true?" The head guard stared into his eyes and asked sharply.

The comprador shook his head and nodded again: "I can't remember. I don't know why, but I feel dizzy today. Even the memory of getting up early is blurred."

The head officer stepped forward and gave him a big mouth: "Are you more awake now?"

The comprador was beaten until the corner of his mouth was bleeding, and half of his face was swollen.

Seeing this, Bai Zhi's eyes flashed a trace of unexplained coldness, but she didn't stop it.

"Still sober?" The head guard raised his hand as a threat when the comprador didn't say anything.

The comprador hurriedly responded: "Sober up, sober up. What the cook said is true."

A successful smile flashed across the face of the head officer, and then turned to salute Shen Changyan.

"Shen Shizi, I have already found out the facts of the case. Today's poisoning case was caused by two people. As for who is that tall, thin man with a mask..."

He didn't continue talking, but looked at Shen Changyan quietly.

Shen Changyan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who are you suspecting?"

The leading guard hurriedly replied: "I don't dare, I'd better ask Shen Shizi to ask the cook for the detailed figure of that man."

Shen Changyan didn't seem to hear it, so naturally he wouldn't listen to what he said.

Instead, the guard who was escorting the cook said, "What is the detailed figure of the person who told you to make the poisoning case?"

The cook had a frightened and flustered expression on his face, and he subconsciously shook his head.

"what……"

But then there was a scream, Bai Zhi saw it clearly, and the servant who was holding the cook secretly threatened the cook.

"I said, that person's figure..."

The cook said, looking around, when he looked at Bai You, there was a guilty expression in his eyes, but he suddenly shouted.

"It's very similar to the Eldest Young Master's figure, and the sound is also similar. The younger one was very flustered at the time, and I don't know if I can remember it accurately. In short, it's almost the same. It shouldn't be the Eldest Young Master..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the chief guard.

"Shen Shizi, what the cook said is also a reference. With a specific comparison, it will be easier to find."

Shen Changyan did not receive the fawning eyes of the first servant, but still stared at the cook.

"No, young master? What's your basis? If so, what's your basis?"

The cook was stared at with nowhere to look, his face couldn't hide the panic and he was at a loss.

He faltered and replied: "No, there is no basis..."

The leading officer sneered again and said: "There is no basis. Is what you just said just nonsense?"

"No, it's not nonsense..." The cook was obviously frightened, and his body was shaking violently. If it weren't for the guards guarding him on both sides, he might not be able to stand.

Bai Zhi watched coldly from the side, and said lightly: "Since you have found out, what do you plan to do with it, hurry up, don't delay the homecoming banquet at the Baifu today, it will be very disappointing."

Hearing this sentence, the head officer seemed to have received an imperial edict, and immediately replied: "Thank you for your understanding, the Lord of Xianghe County, then we will take the two suspects back to Jingzhaoyi Mansion for further interrogation, so as not to disturb the return of the Bai Mansion." door banquet."
