Chapter 308 Poisonous in Food
Wang's decision was just a subconscious conditioned reflex. At the beginning, when Su Xiaomei's face turned pale and covered her stomach with her hand, Wang's side joked whether she was too hard in the afternoon. However, he saw that Su Xiaomei's face was getting heavier and heavier, and more than a dozen people fell down in a while upstairs. He realized that things were not so simple. The first instinct told Wang that it was food poisoning,
People with abdominal pain were helped to one side. Those who had no symptoms looked at the food on the table and dared not move their chopsticks again.
Seeing Wang's side coming back, everyone gathered together. Feng Shen, the magistrate at the front of the crowd, and Tao Ren, were also poisoned. In addition to not shouting for abdominal pain, their faces turned pale with fear and sweat. They were too nervous. The prince just came to Yongzhou on the first day, such a big thing happened. If it was true. If there is a human life, I can't escape it anyway,
Feng Shen asked shiveringly, "Your Majesty, how is she?"
Wang pointed to the poisoned people who were concentrated: "Like these people, you can see who has mild symptoms first and ask them what they ate."
Everyone couldn't help but wonder that everyone sat together for a banquet and ate almost the same food. How could there be a difference in poisoning?
"Your Majesty, I think someone has tampered with it. It's better to gather people now and investigate closely. In addition, send someone to search for suspicious people in the royal palace." Nan Jifeng came forward and said,
The king sat there and looked at the chaotic scene in the banquet hall. He shook his head. This palace is not small. In those years, it was also known as Wang Nong Zhigao's palace. It was easy to hide a person.
Dozens of people in the banquet hall looked at Wang's side and waited for him to speak. The sound of poisoned people on the side reached Wang's ears. For a long time, he was also thinking: If it was food poisoning, then why was he okay? He looked at the crowd who made a sound. How many old and young women and children were there,
With a little time, the doctor in the house ran in in a panic. After his diagnosis, these people were not seriously poisoned, so he prescribed some soup one by one and ordered people to suffer immediately. The king ordered people to arrange a place for these people to rest, let everyone rest for a while, and appeased everyone to find out the truth soon.
The people in the hall gradually dispersed. Huiying Building, which was just very noisy, is now quiet. The king ordered people to send Su Xiaomei back to the inner house, and let Hou Shuxian and He Xingyuan, who had a slight symptoms, go back to rest. The banquet hall of Huiying Building was brightly lit, leaving only Zhe Kejun, Zhang Ping, Cai Jing, Li Jie, and The eye-catching Gentile Thule,
It's interesting to talk about Thule. Although the king said that he was his own slave, he usually treated Thule with courtesy. Along the way, there were no obstacles to the communication between Thule and the king. Naturally, he said a lot. Slowly, the king found that Thule was like a savage who had never been domesticated, and he did not have the etiquette culture of the Han people. I don't know, but I just don't want to abide by it. Sometimes Wang side doesn't force him. In this way, he listens to Wang's words instead. Now even if he let Tule back, he may not be willing to leave.
The banquet of Huiying Building entertained the rich and gentry of local officials in Yongzhou. These people were sitting in the middle of the lobby. In the side halls on both sides of the east and west, they were all cronies in the king's house. Now Thule is also familiar with everyone, and naturally they also participate in the banquet.
At this time, Thule is sitting at a table. It seems that he forgets that someone just ate something and has an upset stomach. He is holding a chicken leg and nibbling it.
Li Jie came to him. The two people followed Wang to the south at the same time. Tule took a look at Wang: "This, it's delicious."
"Someone just had a bad stomach. I suspect that there is a problem with this food. Don't eat it yet." Li Jie said,
Tuller ignored: "I just ate this. It's okay, my stomach." He patted his stomach and answered in a stiff Chinese,
Their conversation interrupted Wang's meditation. He pointed to Thule and said, "The banquet in this house is mostly prepared by Mr. He according to our habits in the capital. Although the fried and fried high-temperature things are a little greasy, after the process of processing, you see, in addition to these dishes, there are also some fresh fruits and vegetables on this table. I suspect it's the question in these fruits and vegetables. I just thought about it. It seems that I don't eat much of these things.
Cai Jing was just in the statistics. Now he heard Wang say so. He put down the pen and paper in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, you are right. I just roughly summarized it, Fan
People with abdominal pain are people who drink less and eat more fruits and vegetables. It's strange. It's easy to poison in wine or water. How can they poison in fruit?
As Zhang Ping was talking, he walked in from the outside: "Your Majesty, the people who came to the banquet have arranged their residences."
Wang nodded: "Let the people in the kitchen be more careful. They should be tested with silver needles before sending food and drink."
"I have ordered it." Zhang Ping replied,
"Your Majesty, it has been searched everywhere in the house, and there is no suspicious person." Wu Ling also came in from the outside at this time and reported,
All the arrangements came back one after another, and Han Derong also came back to report: "Your Majesty, the people in the kitchen have also been count, and now they are all waiting for your interrogation in the courtyard."
"Well," the king said with a um, and Zhe Kejun stepped in. He was accompanied by a guard: "Your Majesty, I asked, there was really a suspicious person in the house today. He didn't attend the banquet, but he did leave before the banquet, you think so." He glanced at the bodyguard who looked at the door,
The bodyguard hurriedly bowed his head and said, "There is indeed such a person. Today, you arranged for the prime minister of Dali to stay in the royal palace. In the afternoon, a person came and said that he saw that the prime minister of Dali did not return to the post, so he came to ask when he would go back. It happened that the maidservant beside the prime minister went to the post to take things and happened to meet him. The humble position was to look for it. Looking for the prime minister, I let them in to talk. This man left after the banquet began. When the general asked us, I remembered this.
Zhe Kejun stared at him angrily: "Let people into the royal palace casually. If something happens, don't you want to keep the meat ball on your shoulder?"
The bodyguard lowered his head and did not dare to squeak. This bodyguard was also from the capital. In the capital, the house next to the king was usually visited by people. Sometimes the people who went in and out did not stop him. At that time, even the king himself said that the low threshold of our house were all guests. There was no need to cross-examine. I didn't expect that I just came to Yongzhou first. Something happened. He scolded the prime minister of Dali in his heart, but he blamed himself more or less.
"Forget it, I can't blame him either. Just be careful in the future. You can go down first." Wang said lightly,
Zhe Kejun patted the bodyguard: "Thank you, my lord."
The bodyguard hurriedly thanked the king and turned around and retreated. The king thought about what the bodyguard said. The intention of the prime minister of Dali this time has not been figured out yet. Whether the poisoning of the man in the house has anything to do with him, and Wang is not sure.
Cai Jing snorted: "Your Majesty, I think the prime minister of Dali has a question. You see that he sent you a congratulatory gift today. It is clearly to provoke the relationship between you and the emperor. I can even see this trick. What's more, the governor of Yongzhou informed them that he did not come to the dinner party. He must have known that there are questions in this meal. Just let General Zhe catch him and hit dozens of boards to see if he didn't tell the truth.
"Yes, yes." Cai Jingyi said that Zhe Kejun and Zhang Ping also agreed,
The king ignored them. At this time, he was seeing two people walking into the hall. In front of him was Nan Jifeng, followed by a man in his forties. The man was wearing a headscarf on his head, a wide linen shirt, a tea brown leo belt around his waist, silk shoes and socks underneath, and his eyebrows were beautiful. He carried one on his back. In the medical box, Wang stood up and greeted him: "Brother Nan, you're back, this one is."
Nan Jifeng looked up and down at the king, "Well, it's okay, it's okay, brother. I'm just afraid that there will be more people who will be poisoned. The man in your house is too busy, so I sent someone to pick up Mr. Qian. He is the first doctor here."
Just when the banquet hall was in chaos, Nan Jifeng sent someone to invite Mr. Qian. At this time, people were not allowed to go in and out of the royal palace at will. Nan Jifeng personally picked up Mr. Qian at the gate of the palace. Seeing that Nan Jifeng was so respectful to this person, Wang also saluted, "Mr. Qian, I didn't expect that the first day I came to Yongzhou. I haven't asked Mr. Gao's name for this.
Mr. Qian hurriedly replied: "Where are the patients in Qian Yi's character Zhongyang?" He said and looked around,
"Oh, fortunately, I found that there are not many patients in time; Cai Jing, please take Mr. Qian to have a look." At the command of the king, Cai Jing took Qian Yi with him,
Wang turned to Han Derong: "You lead the way. Let's go to the kitchen yard." With that, he stepped out,
Compared with the quietness of the king's mansion at this moment, the king's kitchen is in a courtyard on the east of the king's palace, but now it is the most noisy place in the king's palace. Some of the kitchen are squatting, some are sitting on stone stools, some are looking at the closed courtyard door in a daze, and some whispering: "Why did this happen? Do you think it's the king? I have an enemy.
An older cook said, "Be quiet. At this time, I guess the prince doesn't know who to get angry with. Be careful to cut you out."
There are also sighs and complaints: "Well, you said it's a mess. You said we were provoked by whom,"
He said even more unconvincedly, "What are you afraid of? It's not what we did. Is it possible that he, a prince who has just come to Yongzhou, can't start killing after a day."
The door was pushed open with a squeak. Wang side stood in the courtyard of the kitchen. The people in the yard immediately came down quietly. The king stood in white clothes under the moonlight. His face was as heavy as water. The bodyguards behind him looked at the people in the courtyard with black faces like Iron King Kong. Even if these people did not do anything bad, look at this scene. My heart is shivering more or less,
Suddenly, a cook knelt down with a plop. Just now, I was afraid that he would listen to the discussion. He kowtowed and said like a garlic, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have nothing to do here. I have old and young..." He didn't finish talking. The unconvinced person just now also knelt down. Begging for mercy in the yard,
