Liu Qiqiao saw that Shen Yuyuan was so anxious to come in, and he was a little surprised, because Shen Yuyuan's temperament, very few things could make him lose his sense of measure, but seeing Yuan Qiluo's curious look, Liu Qiqiao stood up and gave them Introduction.
"Miss Yuan, this is my second brother, Shen Yuyuan, the second young master of the Shen family!" Liu Qiqiao said hurriedly. "Second brother, this is Miss Yuan Qiluo Yuan! Yuluofang is in charge!"
Shen Yuyuan suddenly saw Yuan Qiluo, a little uncomfortable, but now, he couldn't care about it. He just hugged his hands and bowed, "I saw Miss Yuan below!" After greeting, he turned his head and said to Liu Qiqiao, "Seventh brother. , Shen’s wine shop’s wine was sued, saying that someone ate our wine and was poisoned!”
After hearing Shen Yuyuan's words, Liu Qiqiao frowned. Poisoned
Yuan Qiluo saw that they had something here, and said: "Seventh master, second young master, since there is something in the store, I will leave first!"
Liu Qiqiao and Shen Yuyuan sent Yuan Qiluo together, and returned to the store. Liu Qiqiao said: "How can it be poisoned, is it serious? How are people doing now?"
Shen Yuyuan wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said eagerly: "I have sent my buddy over, and the doctor has followed. It is the grandfather of the Xicheng King's mansion today. He ordered the wine here and half of the banquet was eaten. Most of the people screamed that their stomach hurts. Some people called out that the alcohol was poisonous. The butler in Wang's mansion quietly sent someone to tell me. What is going on, I don’t know yet, I’m eager to come back to you, you see, But what to do!"
Liu Qiqiao had never experienced this before, and he was a little anxious. The housekeeper of Lord Wang's house was also recently made with them through the housekeeper Jin. I ordered wine a few days ago. Liu Qiqiao was very happy. For the five-year aging of the altar, directly take the cash, the white silver, but the silver has not been exchanged for a silver ticket, how could something like this happen.
"Second brother, don’t worry. Our wine has been sold for so long, and there has never been anything like this. It must not be our wine problem. Let’s go first and call some doctors over. No matter what. Let’s treat those people’s poison first!” Liu Qiqiao said. She asked someone to prepare a carriage in front of her. She didn’t know how to ride a horse. Shen Yuyuan heard her say that although she was in a hurry, she ordered her subordinates to do something. , He couldn't help but admire Liu Qiqiao's calmness, but he despised his self-heard that something was going on, sweating profusely, and disorganized.
The carriage was ready, Liu Qiqiao got on the carriage, Shen Yuyuan rode ahead, Xicheng Wang's house was not far away, and when Liu Qiqiao's carriage arrived there, the doctors whom Shen Yuyuan had invited had all arrived.
They all carried the medicine box, and when they arrived in the mansion, they kept seeing the doctors who said they were poisoned.
Lord Wang was the second-rank official of the dynasty. Today, his father is celebrating his birthday. There are really many people who come to give gifts. Now that the banquet is halfway through, something like this happened. Lord Wang paced anxiously there, like a few butlers. Are running back and forth.
Liu Qiqiao walked in. The banquet was opened in the front yard hall. There were more than ten tables in the banquet room. There were different people, foaming at their mouths, leaning over there. There were people who were stroking their chests and backs, and some were paying back. It's vomiting, it's messy.
The doctors came over, and they were all very busy with the pulse signal and acupuncture. Some people heard that the people from the Shenjia Restaurant were coming, and they immediately surrounded them.
Dozens of people gathered Liu Qiqiao and Shen Yuyuan together, and the sentiment was infuriated. Seeing the way they rolled their arms and sleeves, they wanted to hit them on the spot.
Shen Yuyuan had already suffered a few blows on his body, but he didn't care at all. He only protected Liu Qiqiao with all his heart, and shouted loudly: "Please calm down your anger. I have brought the doctor over. The specific reason must be investigated. Besides, the wine in our wine shop has not been sold for a day or two. There has never been such a thing..."
Someone yelled: "My father said he was uncomfortable after drinking, and he started to vomit before he could go to the hut. You said it was not your wine. These dozen people all have the same symptoms. They only started to drink alcohol. , It’s not a question of wine, what is it?"
Someone echoed: "Yes, yeah, the poisoned people are all those who drank alcohol. If we didn't drink, there would be nothing wrong. That's not a problem of alcohol, what is it!"
Under Shen Yuyuan’s protection, Liu Qiqiao was still dragged to disheveled clothes. She was busy protecting herself, and took the time to shout: "Everyone, it’s important to save people. If there is a problem with our wine, we will take care of this. , I am the chief treasurer of the Shenjia Wine Shop. I’m right here. Everyone, please stay calm. I think this incident has already alarmed the government. I will send someone over in a while. When the matter is found out, everyone will come to me again. Let me talk about it. Now, it’s better to take care of the patients first. That’s good!"
When someone heard that someone would bear it, they calmed down slowly. Although they were still cursing, it was important to save the people. The crowd dispersed and they all went to look after the poisoned people.
After the people dispersed, Liu Qiqiao breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, she felt a beam of eyes staring sharply at her. She followed her feelings, but she couldn't help being taken aback.
Disgust rises in my heart, and there is also a trace of fear. The owner of that gaze is not someone else, but it is King Ye who has not heard from him for a long time.
He seemed indifferent, but his eyes were warm, staring at Liu Qiqiao as if he was looking at how she could get through this difficulty.
After Liu Qiqiao was surprised, she had to follow the rules and raise her hand to salute the king Ye who was not far away. She lowered her head slightly, and after saluting, she turned her face away, busy looking at the poisoning situation of those people. That's it.
On the nearby table, there were two poisoned people. Both of them had white saliva at the corners of their mouths. They were semi-conscious and unconscious. One had signs of convulsions. The doctor was pinching his person. After turning his eyes up, the doctor finally returned to normal. The doctor let go. The doctor asked someone to bring a towel over, wiped the corners of his mouth, cleared the dirt in his mouth, signaled his pulse, and flipped him. Eyelids and checked what he vomited.
Liu Qiqiao asked, "Doctor, can you see what caused these people to look like this now?"
The doctor was very serious and cautious in replying: "For the time being, it is a sign of food poisoning, but to determine what kind of food it is, further testing is necessary!"
Liu Qiqiao nodded and said to Shen Yuyuan, "Go and tell the housekeeper Zhang, all the food and beverages are optimistic. It is estimated that people from the yamen will come over soon. At this time, you must be careful not to be tampered with. , Especially our wine, people are optimistic about it!"
Shen Yuyuan nodded and immediately ordered.
More than ten people gathered together. Five or six doctors are working hard to treat them. It seems that they are not serious. The poisoned people have temporarily controlled their illness and have not deteriorated.
Liu Qiqiao has not been idle, helping the doctor to do things, occasionally got empty, raised his head, but saw that the king Ye has not left yet, the weather is hot, he is fine, sitting in the high pavilion, from there, He could see the situation clearly. He didn't intend to leave, nor did he intend to intervene. The Lord Wang was always by his side, accompanied by a cautious look.
All the windows in the front hall were wide open, but the smell in the hall was unpleasant. It was the dirty smell of things vomited by the poisoned people.
Soon people from the yamen came over and tested all the food that was still in the future, and the wine was tested one by one with silver needles.
Standing in the crowd, Liu Qiqiao and Shen Yuyuan looked at the servant who tried the wine, and saw him put the silver needle in. When it was taken out for a while, the place where the wine had been soaked turned black.
Suddenly, the crowd froze: "Look, it's really wine, my God, I almost drank it just now!"
People talked a lot. Liu Qiqiao felt a buzzing in his head. The facts are here. She and Shen Yuyuan glanced at each other. Shen Yuyuan also looked pale and shook his head towards Liu Qiqiao and said: "No, impossible, our wine, How can it be poisonous!"
"I beg the adults to be the masters and take the owner of this wine shop. This almost killed them, but they can't be spared..." someone said.
"Yeah, yeah, although the toxicity has been controlled now, but who can guarantee that there will be no future troubles, and the poison will be cleaned up, in case there is a residue!" someone agreed.
Lord Wang came over and discussed with the boss in the Yamen, while Ye Wang shook his fan, looking at the excitement.
People are very excited. If there is no conclusion, I am afraid that this matter will not end well. Liu Qiqiao hurriedly said to Shen Yuyuan: "I'm holding on here. If there is anything, let them catch me and go back. You can send someone soon. Go back to the Zhuangzi, tell the young master the matter, and tell him to find a way to find out the matter! I don’t believe that our wine is poisonous. Someone must be murdering us!” She was thinking in her mind that King Ye not far away, because He looks so neat and free, she knows that he has been displeased with herself, and it was too sudden and strange.
Shen Yuyuan shook his head and said eagerly: "If you arrest someone, just arrest me. If you can't let them arrest you, you can call your eldest brother!" He thought, Liu Qiqiao is a female stream. She pushed forward.
Just as they were talking, someone came over and surrounded them both. One of them shouted: "Master Wang, that's them, they are from the Shenjia Restaurant. They will soon be tied up and sent to Go to the Yamen, their wine is poisonous. Those who came to the birthday banquet today were all officials and family members of the imperial court. I don’t know what kind of thoughts they took. Lord Wang, if you don’t hold them back, you may even say no when you arrive at the Yamen. clear!"
Lord Wang has a headache. This is the truth. Some of the poisoned people are still their own colleagues. They are second-ranked in their official positions. They are not big or small. The people who come today are all good friends with them. Now they are out. After such a thing, it was really hard to confess. He was busy calling the people from the Yamen to come over, and surrounded Liu Qiqiao and Shen Yuyuan together.
