Husband, Have Dinner - Chapter 227
There were doubts about the true and false princess before, and then there was a case of bird’s nest redressing the injustice of the royal chef and poisoning.
Mo Xingle realized that these two things were closely related, and after reporting to the top, the old case that had been conclusive for more than ten years was reopened.
“Is there anything I can help?” A Yao asked.
That day, she rushed to the founding mansion, facing each other across the street. There was a constant stream of pedestrians and vendors on carts. Just as she was about to cross the street to the opposite side, she was caught off guard by a sap. Before she plunged into the darkness, she vaguely heard people screaming.
When she woke up, the back of her head was aching, Mo Xingle smiled with a guilty heart, and apologized to her to clarify the reason, saying that she was anxious to find her, and the people under her didn’t listen to the instructions and caused the accidental injury.
A Yao poked her mouth, seeing that he sincerely apologized and said that he would invite her to the best restaurant for dinner. Only then did she forgive Mo Xingle. Then when he talked about the case of bird’s nest, she quickly asked her to send a letter to Pei Shuo. , Followed Mo Xingle and started investigating the case.
“You are a person involved in the case, and you are not allowed to participate in the case under normal circumstances. But first, you are young, your parents are dead, you have a greedy uncle and aunt, and your ancestors lived in Jiangcun for three generations, all in vain. Later, through the founding of the country. The introduction of the eldest son was able to apprentice to learn art. It can be said that it has nothing to do with the important people in this case. Secondly, you are familiar with cooking techniques, which can help you re-examine the case. I say this, do you understand?”
Before handling the case, Mo Xingle explained to A Yao.
How could Ayao fail to understand Mo Xingle’s painstaking efforts, the little chicken nodded like a peck and smiled, “I understand, I understand, thank you Lord Mo.”
Mo Xingle looked at A Yao’s gratitude and enthusiasm smile, and could see that she had listened to her words, and then opened the file to A Yao about the old case…
Master Mochizuki was the daughter of the implicated imperial chef, and the bird’s nest was the daughter of Shangshan who was implicated. In this way, Qu Yunhe’s father who was far away in Fuhai should also be one of the people implicated at that time.
A Yao listened carefully to Mo Xingle’s words, thinking secretly in her heart.
The man was exiled and the female family was demoted to a lowly citizenship. Maybe someone in the middle helped Master Mochizuki secretly or directly, so she didn’t stay in Fuhai like Qu Yunhe.
“… On the same day, Wu Yuchu made pheasant hot pot, chicken soup tofu, dried shrimp fried spinach, green wine stewed duck, silver sunflower box side dishes, Su Yuchu was responsible for the sauce of eight immortals, braised shrimp and celery, sauce almonds, crab noodles and shrimps, and simmered double winter , Squirrel mandarin fish, bird’s nest ham and duck shreds. Feng Yuchu is responsible for the pastries, including sticky rice cakes, xiaolongbao, dried rice stalks, etc.” Mo Xingle read the booklet for the bottom of the meal, a bit greedy, and changed one. The case said, “Later, Guifei Xue said that she suffered from abdominal pain and died that night. Afterwards, she was found to be poisoned by the imperial physician…Is there any problem with this menu?”
Ayao shook her head, “The menu sounds okay, and why is it so sure that it is food poisoning? Didn’t you still use silver chopsticks and silver bowls or other methods to test the poison, or let the serving food taste? The problem? If you can use the amount of poison to kill, then the person who tried the food in the front should also have the problem first, right?”
She thinks poisoning in the imperial meal is the most unreliable. Can the food that the emperor eats can be compared with the folks? There are still two folks who call four or five dishes. Then the emperor and his concubines have more choices. There are more than a dozen dishes for a person, and you are not sure that the target person will eat your dish. What if bad luck happens to be the unlucky element?
Every dish has to be poisoned, and many people must be bought through. It is also necessary to test poison through equipment and food. It is so troublesome and so laborious to spend so much money. Bribery may be unsuccessful in the end, why not directly Is it easy to spend a lot of money to find a master who visits the palace at night to pry open their mouths and poison them?
“Silver chopsticks and silver bowls, you know the rules.” Mo Xingle laughed and hooked his hands to make Ayao catch her ears. He pulled out one of the files stacked on the table and spread it out to a certain page, scanning with his fingertips. After a certain line, he paused and said in a low voice that only the two audible voices said, “It is true that after that person retired, the Admiral placed them in the Dongshan Palace for offerings. , And there are several inside waiters who test poison, I’m afraid that one will…”
He spoke quickly and his voice was low. Several times, A Yao almost didn’t hear him clearly, so she had to concentrate all her attention and **** her ears. She broke and understood what he said in her heart. She had no chance to see Mo Xingle’s movement of tilting her head and rolling her eyes.
“The Fa is not taught to Liu Er, you will forget it when you go out of this door. This dossier is the daily notes of those few people, and it is recorded…”
“Stop, stop, just say the content, I don’t want to know its origin.”
Ayao’s legs were a bit soft, and Yu Guang didn’t even dare to look at the dossier, but at the same time she was a little excited in her heart. This was the first-hand information from the previous period. She was able to get in touch with each other so close that she was in such a tangled state of mind. , The whole person trembled with excitement.
“Don’t be nervous, it will make you nervous.” Mo Xingle sneered, “It is customary for the concubine to have a meal after the meal is tested for poison. There was no abnormality at the time, and then the fruit was cherries. After the dinner, Xue Guifei complained of abdominal pain, and the imperial physician came after the concubine death of a prince.”
“…Wait? After dinner? Did you just read lunch?” Ayao Zhixi.
“Yes, there is no record on it either.” Mo Xingle stalls his hands.
“So when the conviction is based on the noon meal?” A Yao couldn’t believe it.
Mo Xingle frowned, “I looked through the dossier, and there was no mention of the contents of the dinner in the personal notes and the meal base booklet.”
A Yao helped to remove the pen, ink, paper and inkstone so that Mo Xingle could spread out the dossier, so as not to mess up his hands and let the ink stain important materials.
For a while, there was only the rustle of paper turning pages in the room.
“Strange, it’s really not…” After a long while, Mo Xingle frowned, scratched his head in annoyance, and accelerated the speed of turning the book.
A Yao stood aside, not daring to breathe the air, not to make trouble is to give Mo Xingle the best help.
“Yes, this is the conviction-‘The toxin was detected in the shad.’ This was the verdict at that time. And one record said,’At a small banquet in the Mingyue Pine Forest Hall, drinking rose water, tasting shad, Luohanzhai, tuberose soup, fried jade spring sticks, and fruit cakes are a few. Xue Fei prefers peach soup. He said that the peach soup is delicious and the peach puree is thick. It is a must when topped with rose marinade. The sugar is low and sour, which is a pity…’According to the conviction and this record, the Xue Fei and Xue Gui Fei in the record should be the same person.”
A Yao nodded.
She still felt strange.
This confusion was answered until the moment when she was brought to Fanlou by Mo Xingle and the smelly mandarin fish came to the table.
