business lady

Chapter 78
Jiu Yuan sat on the wooden bench, leaned on the table with his jaw resting halfway, looking at the scenery outside the water pavilion, if you pay attention to her eyes, you will find that she is not looking at any scenery, and she doesn't know where she is distracted Occasionally, as if thinking of something, I smiled foolishly there!

When Cha Yi came over with the ginseng soup, she saw her appearance, and deliberately made a noise when the ginseng soup was placed in front of her. Jiu Yuan really came back to his senses, and looked at her puzzled.

"Miss, what happy things are you thinking about? You laugh out loud!" Cha Yi joked with a smile on her face.

Jiu Yuan sat up straight, touched his face with his hands, and asked with a smile, "Is it obvious?"

Cha Yi nodded slightly, and said, "I almost wrote the word 'happy' on my face!" Ever since she entered this palace, she hadn't seen her so happy for a long time!
Jiu Yuan couldn't hide the smile on his face, and he said excitedly, "Ah Zhi said that after he finished his work for the past few days, he would take me to Lingxiu Mountain to see the sea of ​​pines, mist and clouds!" Hearing that it was like a fairyland, she had long wanted to go there Look, just have no chance!
"I see! No wonder Miss is happy!" After speaking, he pushed the ginseng soup in front of her again, saying: "Miss, drink some while it's hot!"

Jiu Yuan nodded, picked up the bowl and blew it on her mouth, just when she was about to drink, a whip rolled over the bowl in her hand, she was so startled that she stood up with an 'ah' sound, and when she looked sideways, she saw that the tea flavor was holding a long cup of tea. The whip stood aside, its hair fluttering with the wind, presumably it had just come in.

Cha Yi was also taken aback, and immediately went to support Jiu Yuan, saying, "What are you doing?" This is about the taste of tea.

Tea Wei frowned slightly, put away the whip in his hand, and said, "You can't drink this soup!"

Tea Art was puzzled and said: "Why can't I drink it!" She specially asked the kitchen to boil it for the young lady.

Before Chawei could answer, he saw Tan came running panting, shouting as he ran, "You can't drink that soup." When he ran to Jiu Yuan, he was still panting, swallowed, and said, "You can't drink this soup." ! It's poisonous inside!"

"What?!" Jiuyuan Chayi looked at her in surprise.

"I asked the kitchen to make this soup today. The ginseng used was given by the emperor. How could it be poisonous?"

Tan Se took a few deep breaths, calmed down her breathing, and said, "Meier, who made soup for Miss in the kitchen, has been poisoned. According to the maid who worked with her, Meier didn't eat anything today, she was only doing it for Miss. I tasted the soup while making the soup!"

"There is such a thing!" Jiu Yuan said calmly.

Tan Se hurriedly nodded in affirmation. She went to the kitchen with Cha Yi. After Cha Yi took the ginseng soup from the kitchen, she was in the kitchen preparing for lunch. She didn't want to hear exclamation behind her just after she picked out a seasonal vegetable. Turning around and looking, she was also shocked, and saw Meier's eyes wide open, spitting black blood and lying on the ground, seemingly lifeless!

She immediately asked the people who worked with Meier, did this Meier have any enemies, or did she eat anything?
But I heard someone reply that Meier is weak and won't offend anyone at all, because she got up a little late today, she hasn't eaten anything until now, she just tasted the saltiness of the soup when she was cooking it!
As soon as she heard this, she was so frightened that she immediately went after the tea art. As soon as she got out of the kitchen and ran to the corner, she was knocked to the ground by the smell of tea. It is poisonous and cannot be drunk!"

As soon as Dou finished speaking, she saw that Cha Wei's figure flashed, she was already far away from her, and she was heading towards the waterside pavilion, she immediately got up from the ground, chased after Chawei, and went towards the waterside pavilion!

Seeing Jiuyuan bring the soup bowl to her mouth from a distance, she was so anxious that she shouted loudly, wishing she could fly over to grab the soup bowl immediately, and she was relieved when she saw the smell of tea knocking down the soup bowl!

She told Jiu Yuan what happened in the kitchen, and finally said happily: "Fortunately, Miss didn't drink!"

Cha Yi frowned, pulled out the silver hairpin from her hair with a sullen face, knelt down and dipped it in the residual soup in the broken bowl, and saw that the silver hairpin changed color in a short while!

Cha Yi stood up and looked at the silver hairpin in her hand, her face was full of anger, if the young lady drank the soup today, if she didn't do anything, if she didn't hand it over, she would kill the young lady with her own hands, which would cause her more pain than directly killing her!
When the others looked at the silver hairpin that had changed color, their expressions were all ugly!

Looking at their unhappy faces, Jiu Yuan said, "Don't be depressed! Didn't I not drink?"

"Miss! It's a good thing I discovered it in time. If it was later, or if the tea flavor moved slower, I would be afraid of the consequences after thinking about it!" Tan Sexin said indignantly.

"Since I'm fine, don't think about it!" At this point, his expression straightened, and he continued: "We should investigate carefully now, who is trying to harm me!"

After finishing speaking, he looked sideways at Cha Yi and said, "Tea Yi, go to Xia Jian and ask him to lead someone to control all the people in the kitchen, and temporarily seal the kitchen. These people must be carefully interrogated and checked. Check their backgrounds, and who has been to the kitchen today, ask them all and arrest them!"

Cha Yi looked up at her, then said in a low voice: "Yes! I'll do it now!" After speaking, she hurried out of the water pavilion.

Looking at her back as she walked away, Jiu Yuan sighed slightly in her heart. This ginseng soup was made by her, and she also brought it to herself. Let her participate in this matter, let her find out the murderer with her own hands, and make her feel better!
After something like this happened, she didn't want to stay in the water pavilion anymore, so she returned to Duanfangzhai with the smell of tea.

As soon as she entered the room and had no time to sit down for a cup of tea, Xia Zhi hurried over. As soon as she stood up, he grabbed her shoulders and said, "You're fine! Fortunately, you're fine!" He just heard that someone was going to assassinate her , ignoring a lot of official business in hand, he rushed to see her immediately, although he heard from Tea Art that she was fine, but he didn't see it with his own eyes, so how could he feel at ease!
Jiu Yuan nodded with a slight smile, "I'm fine! Don't worry!" She let the tea art go, because she also wanted to see him nervously caring about herself!
Xia Zhi hugged her tightly in his arms, put his head on her shoulder, and calmed down his heart that was a little restless just now. After a long time, he got up and supported her shoulder, and said seriously: "Don't worry! I will definitely deal with this matter." I will find out!" He couldn't even imagine that he almost lost his lover forever in what he thought was a well-guarded palace!
"No need! I'll investigate this matter myself, you just cooperate with me!" Jiu Yuan said calmly!
"Okay! I'll leave it to you! No matter who it is, I will never let him go, and I will never let this kind of thing happen twice!" Xia Zhi said, he was terrified once, how could it happen? Let it happen again!
