Chapter 52 Chili is delicious

The backyard of the county government.

"Master County Magistrate~?" The yamen servant went back to the county magistrate's room.

There's a lot of grunting going on here.

"What can I do?" The yamen servant walked around. "If my lord is angry about getting up, wouldn't I get a beating in vain if I wake him up, and I will also leave a bad impression. Those bastards will know to entrust me to come over and hurt people."

Suddenly, there was a bang bang bang.

This is the sound of a drum. Someone is beating the drum again. Is that woman running to beat the drum again?What nonsense.

The county magistrate was woken up again. He turned around and saw the Yamen servant standing aside.

"What's the matter?"

"My lord, I'll go and have a look now." The yamen servant was shocked, turned around and bowed.

"Wait a minute, help me get my official clothes and let's go out together." The magistrate waved.

"Yes, my lord!" The yamen servant immediately took the official clothes and came over.

The county magistrate got up impatiently from the bed, muttering. "What's the specific reason?"

"My lord, it's because Su Huan chili is poisonous. A farmer has already been poisoned and has been brought here." The yamen servant explained the details of the matter one by one.

"Ah?" The county magistrate looked confused.

No, it’s three faces of confusion and ten faces of confusion.

He turned to look at the table not far away, and the yamen officer followed his gaze.

The bottle of chili sauce on the table is so dazzling.

"My lord, why don't you wash your stomach with water?" the yamen servant said in embarrassment.

"No, I want to see who is talking nonsense." The county magistrate's face was ashen.

Only your sister's peppers are poisonous. All the peppers in your family are poisonous. I have eaten them. I have already eaten them. I ate two spoons yesterday and three spoons today. You just told me now that they are poisonous. What do you want me to say? ?It is said to be poisonous. Is this a curse on myself to be poisoned to death as soon as possible? ?

The county magistrate's face was ashen and he was very unhappy.

Su Huan, Great Talent Su, I sincerely hope that this is someone who is targeting you. Great Talent Su will bless you, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, the Jade Emperor, and all the gods in the sky will bless you.

There was a smell of a bow and a snake, and the magistrate's face was very ugly, and there were cold sweats on his back and palms.

……

In the mountains, after Dr. Zhang and Xiaotong finished a cup of chili stew, they felt hot all over their bodies and felt happy physically and mentally.

Dr. Zhang led the children, each with a little donkey, to the county town.

He wanted to take the child to see Dr. Su Xiao, and then see how to grow peppers in the winter, an unprecedented miracle.

The grandparents and grandchildren walked side by side, and the child listened carefully to Dr. Zhang bragging about his past deeds. The little donkey was not slow, and felt that he had seen the county town after walking for a while.

On the other side, the prefect was eating roast lamb with a group of friends. There was a small dish of chili in front of each of them. Everyone dipped in the lamb and ate it, so happy.

It was so delicious. Everyone was very excited to eat it and praised how good the chili was.

Knowing that a bottle of chili was sold for 50 taels of silver, everyone's eyes widened, and they ate more carefully, unable to bear to waste any more.

The more you eat, the more delicious it becomes, and when you pair it with wine, you immediately feel that this is the life of a fairy.

"My lord..." A yamen servant came in and said a few words in the ear of the magistrate, and the magistrate's expression changed on the spot.

Peppers are poisonous, and someone has already been poisoned, and now they are suing Su Huan in the Lin'an county government.

If it is poisonous, I have eaten so much in the past few days, am I going to die soon?

It's over, I'm going to die.

The prefect thought carefully in panic. If peppers were really poisonous, then it would have been seven or eight days since Mr. Qin Zhi fed himself peppers for the first time, and the poison should have developed long ago.

But now there is no poisonous hair, does it prove that the pepper is not poisonous?
After careful questioning of the government officials, it turned out that the three people who were poisoned all fell down on the first day after eating chili peppers, and their condition became more serious the next day until today.

"Everyone, I have something to deal with all of a sudden, please eat and drink well." The prefect stood up and bowed.

"Since we have business, let's go!" Everyone ate happily. "Come back early, there's still half a sheep left to eat."

"Definitely." The magistrate walked out of the room and said to the yamen servant next to him, "Put on your regular clothes and go to Lin'an immediately. I want to see who the poisoned person is, what he looks like, and what kind of poison he was poisoned by." .”

"My lord suspects something is wrong?" the yamen servant asked.

"Now I just suspect that if it is poisonous, my classmates have eaten chili peppers for two days, why is nothing wrong?" The magistrate said again: "You were also present when I was cheated by that grumpy old man to eat chili peppers. If it is poisonous, This officer should be dead and standing here to speak now."

The yamen servant followed behind, and the magistrate muttered to himself. "It really doesn't make sense. The first bottle of chili that Su Huan sent was for Mr. Qin Zhi. He has no reason to harm Mr. Qin Zhi."

Su Huan's medical skills may have surpassed Mr. Zhang's. Logically, it is impossible for him not to know that chili peppers are poisonous.The magistrate thought to himself.

It's no secret at the top that Su Huan rescued the young man who suffered from tetanus.

Many important figures have already remembered Su Huan's name in their hearts.

……

In the courtroom, after a burst of drum beating sounded.

The visitor was brought to court.

Da Niu and his wife on Fugui Street, Daniu is better than that farmer, and with the support, he can walk by himself.

Today, there were two drumbeats in Lin'an County, which had already caused a sensation in the whole city, and everyone in the city knew that the gate of the county government office was completely besieged.

There are already several people standing in the courtroom, but it's been a long time since the county magistrate.

The sound of footsteps came from behind, attracting everyone's attention.

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of people, the county magistrate walked up to the courtroom and sat down.

There was noise inside and outside the courtroom.

"quiet!"

The gavel was slapped hard, and the government officials began to beat the sticks, shouting the word "mighty" in their mouths.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became serious.

"Who are you kneeling in this hall? Who do you want to sue? Let's tell the truth." The county magistrate was shocked, and he was still somewhat majestic.

"Reporting to my lord, Caomin Qin Ergou, after I ate chili that day, I was poisoned, my hands and feet were numb, and I vomited two mouthfuls of blood. Caomin sued Tongsheng Su Huan for selling poisonous food, disrupting the market, making me unable to work, and even worse Killing my life, I ask the elder to uphold justice and punish Su Huan severely."

This set of rhetoric obviously does not seem to come from the mouth of an uneducated grassroots.

"What about you?" The gavel was slapped heavily, and the county magistrate looked at the Daniel couple on Fugui Street.

"My nickname is Daniu, but I have no surname. Today I am suing Su Huan for selling poisonous food, poisoning the grassroots and almost dying. Please Master Qingtian severely punish Su Huan."

After listening to the confessions of the two, the county magistrate thought for a while, raised the gavel and slapped it hard, and everyone in the hall jumped.

"Think about it carefully, if there is half a lie, half a sentence of framing, I will never forgive you lightly."

"Now let me tell you the truth, I think you still have a little remorse, so you can let go of the past. If you insist on this confession, after Xuan Suhuan finds out that it is a false accusation, I will definitely make you regret it."
