The matter of Xue Caishen's poisoning is very strange, and there is not even a clue. In everyone's opinion, it will take a long time to trace this matter clearly.
Unexpectedly, it only took Qin Feng an hour to find the source of the poison, which was the purple sand carved lacquer square pot, and brought it back to the dormitory.
"Brother Feng, are you saying that someone poisoned the tea my father drank?"
"No, the tea your father drank is not poisonous. What is really poisonous is this purple clay pot!"
"What, the purple clay teapot is poisonous?"
Everyone was puzzled. Throughout the ages, they had never heard of teapots being poisonous. What was going on?
Facts speak louder than words. Qin Feng didn't dwell on it. Instead, he asked someone to bring a small hammer, knocked off a fragment from the purple clay pot, and then smashed the fragment into powder. As a result, the purple clay powder was mixed with A touch of green!
Next, ask the servant to get some rice bran and a big, lively rooster.
Sprinkle the green powder into the rice bran. After the big rooster pecked it, it kicked off its legs and returned to the underworld. The corpse showed a faint green color, which was exactly the same as when Xue Caishen was poisoned before!
Seeing this scene, everyone suddenly realized.
The murderer was really cunning. He knew that Xue Caishen liked to drink tea, so he ground peacock gall into powder and mixed it with purple sand mud to make a beautiful purple clay pot, which he then gave to Xue Caishen.
Xue Caishen didn't know why, but he saw that this purple clay teapot was very beautiful, so he often used it to drink tea. During the process of making tea, the peacock bile toxin in the teapot slowly penetrated into the water... As time went by, he was naturally poisoned.
Such vicious methods, powerful scheming, unpredictable ghosts and gods, killing people invisibly. When they figured out the reason, everyone present took a breath!
But Qin Feng was even more powerful. He was able to expose the evil tricks so quickly. He had a piercing eye!
Now that the cause of the poisoning has been found, it’s time to track down the murderer!
"Steward Sun, who gave this purple clay pot to my father?"
"Well, let me think about this for a moment... Well, I remembered it. This was a gift that Mr. Yulin gave to the head of the family during the New Year more than two months ago. Yes, it was the purple clay pot he gave me. , It’s recorded on the gift list!”
"What, it's him. Come on, bring Xue Yulin to me immediately!"
"promise!"
Manager Sun led several servants and quickly brought Xue Yulin, the big horse monkey. To be more precise, he picked him up by the neck.
"Let go of me, you damn slaves. The master of the house will die soon. As soon as the master of the house dies, I will be the head of the Xue family. If you dare to be so rude to the future master of the family, I will deal with you sooner or later!"
"Xue Yulin, stop shouting and look at what this is?"
"Ah... poof!"
When he first came in, Xue Yulin still looked arrogant and dissatisfied, but after seeing the broken purple clay pot and the poisoned big rooster, his defense instantly broke.
He collapsed on the ground, sweating like rain and shaking like chaff!
To deal with this kind of thing, there is no need for psychological tactics at all. Just put the two five-color sticks representing the family law on the ground, and the guy will confess obediently.
It turned out that Xue Yulin was a prodigal. Instead of doing his job, he only knew how to eat, drink, whore, gamble, and spend money on fun. He spent his money like water, and soon his pocket was empty. He also owed a bunch of gambling debts and wine debts!
what to do?
It was absolutely impossible to go out to earn money and pay off debts. Xue Yulin found his uncle, Xue Caishen, and started crying, making trouble, and acting bad, with only one purpose - to get money!
At the beginning, for the sake of blood and family ties, Xue Caishen helped this unlucky nephew pay off his debts, gave him a lot of money, and persuaded him to do something serious.
Who knows that Xue Yulin took the money and went to eat, drink, and gamble... When he spent all the money and owed a huge debt, he would cry, make trouble, and beg for the money... This cycle repeats without end!
Xue Caishen is famous for his good temper, but he is also desperate for this nephew. This guy is like a bottomless cesspit. No matter how much water is poured into it, what comes out will always be excrement soup, so he no longer gives He paid off his debt and left him to fend for himself!
Because of this incident, Xue Yulin hated his uncle and hoped all day long that his uncle would die early so that he could get some of his property and continue to eat, drink and have fun.
A few months ago, Xue Yulin met a rogue named Li Biao in a casino. The two had a similar affinity and quickly became friends.
One time, the two of them were drinking flower wine in a brothel together, and they got a little high. So they used the wine and the mangy dog Li Biao to tell many stories about fighting and killing in the rivers and lakes, including peacock gallbladder-purple clay pot. Can kill people invisible!
Xue Yulin hated his uncle, Xue Caishen, to the bone. After learning about this method of killing, he immediately got evil ideas, so through the mangy dog Li Biao, he actually got a poisonous purple clay pot and gave it to him during the Chinese New Year. Gave it to Xue Caishen... thinking of poisoning his uncle and seizing the family fortune himself!
…
"Sister Jinyu, I have said everything that needs to be said. For the sake of our surname being Xue, please spare me this time. I will never dare to do it again, woo hoo!"
"Stop crying, tell me quickly, where does that mangy dog Li Biao live?"
"He lives in the fourth house of Juhua Hutong in the east of the city. There is a big mulberry tree in front of the door. It is easy to recognize. If there is no one at home, go to the south of the city - Baihua Building or the north of the city - Xiaoyao Cave and look for it. You will definitely find it. Boy, he was the instigator of all these bad things, it’s really not my fault!”
"Manager Sun, bring someone with you immediately to capture that scoundrel Li Biao!"
"promise!"
Manager Sun acted quickly and brought back the mangy dog Li Biao in just one meal. Unfortunately, what he brought back was a corpse.
That's right, Li Biao is dead!
He died on the earthen bed in his home, with someone slashing his neck with a knife. His eyes were wide open, and he died with no eyes closed!
At this point, anyone with a little bit of brains will understand that this is a chain plan!
There was a man behind the scenes who first bribed Li Biao, bewitched Xue Yulin through him, and then used Xue Yulin's hand to poison Xue Caishen. The links were closely linked, and the scheming was really deep!
"Steward Sun, where is Li Biao's murderer? Have you caught him?"
"No, when the old slave arrived with others, the murderer had already left. Li Biao was lying on the earthen bed. The wound was still bleeding, and the body was still hot."
The corpse is hot, which means that the person died not long ago. This may seem like a small thing, but it is terrifying if you think about it carefully!
Just imagine, the mangy dog Li Biao was obviously killed and silenced. Why didn't he silence him earlier, but why did he silence him now?
There is only one explanation: the man behind the scenes knew that the poisoning had been exposed, so he quickly killed people to silence him so as not to implicate himself.
The problem is that the incident of catching the poisoner, Xue Yulin, through the purple clay pot has just happened, and the news has not been spread. How did the mastermind behind the scenes know?
There is only one explanation: the man behind the scenes has placed an informant in the Xue family compound to monitor every move here; or perhaps the man behind the scenes is in the Xue family compound, or even in this dormitory. Seeing that the situation is not good, he secretly Notify the minions and kill them in advance!
The question is, among everyone present, who is the mastermind behind this?
The female young master, Xue Jinyu, looked at everyone around him with suspicious eyes, and finally landed on Qin Feng.
Do not misunderstand.
Xue Jinyu knew very well that without evidence, she could not determine who was behind the scenes. Everyone present was suspicious, but one thing was certain, Qin Feng was definitely not the mastermind.
Among everyone present, only Qin Feng can be trusted 100%, and now he can only rely on Qin Feng.
"Brother Feng, when the matter has reached this stage, how should I deal with it?"
"The rest is your Xue family's housework. It's not for me as an outsider to interfere, so you should make your own decisions!"
"Jin Yu is in a state of confusion right now. She really can't make up her mind. I'd better ask Brother Feng to help me decide. Besides, in Jin Yu's heart, Brother Feng has never been regarded as an outsider!"
"Well, okay, let me make four suggestions:
First, the mangy dog Li Biao was killed and silenced, and the clues were also interrupted. If you want to track down the mastermind behind the scenes, I am afraid that it will not be possible in a short time. The matter can only be put on hold for the time being, and then we will consider it in the long term. I believe that Skynet is huge and sparse. If it leaks, sooner or later the truth will come out.
Second, Xue Yulin, the poisoner, can be imprisoned somewhere and have someone under strict supervision. After your father wakes up, he can either report to the official for sentencing or family law, and then discuss it again.
Third, immediately send a notice saying that your father has turned the corner, so as to calm people's hearts and avoid affecting your Xue family's business.
Fourth, add more manpower to patrol the Xue Family Courtyard day and night. No unrelated persons are allowed to enter. Your Majesty must be guarded by confidants. You must not leave at twelve hours a day. Every bowl of water you drink and everything you eat must be guarded. Strict inspections must be carried out to prevent the masterminds behind the scenes from poisoning people again! "
…
"Okay, do as Brother Feng said... Do you all hear clearly? Implement it immediately!"
"promise!"
Xue Jinyu gave the order and his men took action. Everything was in order and the situation was under control.
It took a whole day to rescue people, detect drugs, and chase the murderer...
Seeing that it was getting late, everyone except those responsible for the night watch had gone to rest. Ninth Young Master Fan Renjie also stood up to say goodbye and led his men back to the inn.
Qin Feng also wanted to say goodbye and find an inn in the city to stay, but Xue Jinyu stayed behind and asked someone to clean up an upper room in the third courtyard as a place for Qin Feng to rest.
Mouse, Dong Tianbao and others were arranged to stay in the second courtyard!
The order was issued, causing quite a stir in the Xue Family Courtyard!
You know, as one of the three major Qin merchants in the northwest, the Xue family often has guests visiting, and it is normal for them to stay at their home.
Ordinary guests stay in the first courtyard, and guests with deep friendship stay in the second courtyard... As for the third courtyard, it is where the Xue family's father and daughter live, and they never stay guests. This has been the rule for many years. Behave yourself.
Now, the rules that have been established for many years have been broken, and Qin Feng has moved into the third courtyard. This really means that he is not treated as an outsider!
The result of this is that when the maids and servants of the Xue family see Qin Feng, they show extra respect, with that kind of fawning look, just like fawning over their new uncle!
