Reborn to marry a playboy, the scumbag kneels down and calls me aunt
Chapter 159 Reporting to the Official
"Crown Princess, please allow me to report... Hey, Crown Princess."
The maid outside was startled, and Li glanced at her sideways with an unhappy look on her face.
"What are you doing in the second room?"
Su Xuqing ignored her and went straight to the window, grabbed Su Miner's hand and gave her an injection.
Li became anxious when she saw this. Although she disliked Su Min'er now, it did not mean that Su Xuqing could break into the second room and torture Su Min'er with silver needles. Wouldn't that be the same as slapping the second room in the face?
Su Xuqing looked at the silver needle that was gradually turning black and said coldly, "You are also poisoned."
“Poisoned…poisoned…”
Li was stunned. "Didn't she catch a cold? How could she be poisoned?"
Su Miner's face turned even paler at this moment, and her body shook even more violently.
Su Xuqing looked at the two people's expressions, and her expression gradually became solemn. "It seems that you don't know either. Forget it."
After confirming that Su Min'er was also poisoned, Su Xuqing turned and left.
Li grabbed her sleeve and said, "You come when you say you will, and leave when you say you will, and you don't even tell me what's going on!"
Su Xuqing glanced at Li and spoke slowly, "I'll give you a piece of advice. Check everything you've taken in recently carefully, and then ask your daughter-in-law what she's eaten recently. Make a list and I'll come over again in the evening."
After saying that, Su Xuqing shook off Li's hand and walked out in a hurry.
Li gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Why are you so arrogant? You can't even explain yourself clearly!"
Among the people Su Xuqing knew, three were known to have been infected with the disease. Apart from the old princess and Su Min'er, the only one left was Tutor Sun.
Su Xuqing went out and got on the carriage, heading straight for Grand Tutor Sun's mansion. If Grand Tutor Sun's cold symptoms were also due to poisoning, then this incident might not be a poisoning targeting the Prince of Zhennan's mansion, but a poisoning targeting the entire capital city.
Half an hour later, Su Xuqing arrived at the Taifu Mansion. As soon as she got off the carriage, she saw a doctor carrying a medicine box into the mansion.
Su Xuqing hurried up the steps and went into the mansion to look for Sun Youwei.
Lying in the backyard, Sun Youwei looked worried. She looked at Grand Tutor Sun lying on the bed and said, "Doctor, how is my father's condition?"
The goateed doctor felt his pulse and said in a low voice, "This is strange. Your father's condition is getting worse. What is going on?"
When Sun Youwei heard this, her heart sank.
"Miss Sun, Master Sun might have been poisoned."
Su Xuqing came in from outside and told Sun Youwei a possibility that frightened her.
"Sister Su, how did you know?"
Sun Youwei hurriedly went to Su Xuqing and held her hand tightly.
The doctor who was checking the patient's pulse frowned, turned around and looked at Su Xuqing, and said unhappily, "Miss Sun, who is this person? Why are you talking nonsense? Mr. Sun is clearly suffering from a cold, how could he be poisoned?"
Su Xuqing didn't have time to argue with him. She walked to the bedside, grabbed Master Sun's hand and stabbed it for a while. Sure enough, the tip of the needle turned black.
Seeing this scene, the doctor's eyes widened.
"This... is actually poisoning, but what kind of poison can make people feel like they have caught a cold?"
"Poison... How could I be poisoned for no reason?"
Sun Youwei suddenly panicked, and she looked like all her strength had been drained away and she was on the verge of collapse.
Su Xuqing took out three silver needles and blocked Master Sun's three vital points in succession, suppressing the toxins in his body.
Su Xuqing had mastered this acupuncture technique, but the doctor with a goatee was so frightened when he saw her perform this trick that his eyes almost popped out of his head.
"You...you you you...you actually pierced three fatal acupoints..."
The doctor was sweating profusely and said in a trembling voice: "This method can prevent the spread of toxins, but the slightest deviation will cause the patient to die. Why are you so skilled in using it? Who are you?"
"Zhennan Palace, Crown Prince's Consort."
Hearing this answer, the doctor suddenly didn't find it strange. It turned out that it was the Crown Prince's Consort who cured wolfsbane. He had heard that this person had great medical skills, and today he saw that it was true.
"Princess, please allow me to pay my respects to you."
The doctor bowed, as if he had seen a great man, and was as excited as a child.
"Since the Crown Prince's Consort has discovered that the Master's cold is caused by poisoning, is there any way to treat it?"
Su Xuqing said slowly with a serious expression: "If you want to detoxify him, you have to know what poison he was poisoned with."
Sun Youwei clenched her fists and said in a deep voice, "I will go and interrogate the people in the mansion to find out who poisoned her."
"Don't worry, Miss Sun."
Su Xuqing called Shen Youwei and said in a deep voice, "It's not just Grand Tutor Sun who was poisoned this time. Even the old princess was poisoned. If my guess is correct, the people in the clinic may have been poisoned as well."
Sun Youwei's expression changed again and again, and she was in doubt and asked, "You think someone is poisoning a large area in the capital?"
"good."
Su Xuqing nodded slowly and said, "This matter is no longer something you and I can handle. We need to report it to the authorities immediately and let them find out who is behind it. Otherwise, if things continue like this, more people in the capital will be poisoned without anyone noticing."
"Then let's quickly notify the Ministry of Justice and let His Royal Highness investigate as soon as possible."
Sun Youwei walked out in a hurry, and Su Xuqing followed quickly.
The Taifu Mansion was not far from the Ministry of Justice. In less than an incense stick of time, Su Xuqing and Sun Youwei arrived at the Ministry of Justice.
Shen Xuanheng was dealing with a mountain of old cases when he suddenly heard that Su Xuqing had arrived. He quickly asked someone to invite her in.
"lady……"
Shen Xuanheng originally wanted to go up and hug Su Xuqing intimately, but when he saw Sun Youwei following behind him, he quickly stopped his action, "Madam, why are you here?"
"Husband, something has happened. Someone has poisoned a large area in the capital."
Su Xuqing's pretty face was solemn as she told Shen Xuanheng her discovery.
When Shen Xuanheng heard that the old princess' illness was caused by poisoning, his face suddenly turned ugly.
"I understand. I will have someone from the Ministry of Justice investigate right away."
"My dear, the people who were poisoned are of all kinds, from the rich and powerful to the common people. The person who poisoned them must have poisoned something they took in. The most likely source is the water... You can focus on investigating this point."
Shen Xuanheng nodded, then immediately called the two assistant ministers and four directors of the Ministry of Justice and told them about the large-scale poisoning of the people.
When the officials heard the news, they were shocked.
Indiscriminate poisoning throughout the capital is an unprecedented major case. If it is not curbed in time, the consequences will be disastrous. Once the emperor investigates it, I am afraid that I will lose my official hat.
All of a sudden, the entire Ministry of Justice was in operation, and all the yamen runners were mobilized to start investigating the poisoning case.
The Ministry of Justice reported the news to the imperial court at the same time. Not long after, the Censorate and the Dali Temple sent people to investigate.
After the emperor learned the news, he immediately issued an imperial decree, requiring the three courts to cooperate and ensure that the criminal was brought to justice.
