After being read, she became an empress by eating melons

Chapter 19 No way? There were food safety issues in ancient times too?

When Nan Rongjie saw the man and the dog returning home, he couldn't help but ask, "Ah Xi, whose puppy did you catch again?"

Nan Rongxi patted Sang Biao's head and said with a squinting look, "Dad, this is my pet dog! Can you please stop speaking so harshly? Do I look like someone who would steal a dog?"

Nan Rongjie looked disgusted and said, "From childhood to adulthood, you have never raised a pet well. You can even raise a turtle well! However, the look in this puppy's eyes always feels familiar!"

Nan Rongxi raised the corner of his mouth: "This look may be unique to the Nan Rong family!

Nan Rongjie: I remember...

Nan Rongxi continued, "This puppy is already a mature puppy. It can take care of itself! Just let the servants prepare three meals a day!"

Nan Rongchen saw this scene from afar, walked over and said, "What a cute puppy, sister, where did you get it from!"

Nan Rongxi nodded and said, "Chen'er, I met this puppy outside today. I felt sorry for it, so I brought it back. Look at its eyes, it looks very smart!"

Nan Rongchen took a closer look at Sang Biao, his eyes lit up: "Really? Why does it look like it's full of disgust and helplessness? Sister, what are you going to name it?"

Nan Rongxi thought for a moment and said, "Its name is Sang Biao. I think this name suits it very well."

Nan Rongjie interrupted and said, "Sang Biao? What kind of naming genius would come up with this name!"

Nan Rongxi smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry about it. I think it's great. Sang Biao, Sang Biao, it sounds very domineering."

Nan Rongchen also nodded in agreement: "Yes, Sang Biao is an interesting name. Sister, don't worry, I will help you take care of it."

Nan Rongxi touched Sang Biao's head and said with a smile: "That's great, with your help, I will feel more at ease with Sang Biao!"

Sangbiao is also very human-like. He wags his tail when he sees people in Nanrong's family, and is deeply loved by everyone!

The next morning.

In the court, Emperor Rentong and all the officials started a new day of work.

The Minister of Justice Zhao Yi stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, for some reason, there have been frequent cases of food poisoning in the capital recently. The symptoms of the poisoned people are very similar. The strange thing is that they happened in different places and at different times. The relevant people have been arrested and are being interrogated. It is expected that the truth will be revealed in half a month!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Rentong looked solemn. He knew the seriousness of the food poisoning incident. It not only concerned the lives and safety of the people, but also the reputation and stability of the court. He said in a deep voice: "Under the emperor's feet, they are so bold. We must investigate thoroughly, find out the real culprit behind the scenes, and give the people an explanation."

System: [Xizi, Xizi, don't sleep, the melon is coming! ]

Emperor Rentong: Why are you sleeping again? Ask the system now

Zhao Yi: I have achieved the effect I wanted!

Baiguan: What’s the news this time?

Nan Rongxi rubbed his eyes: [Tongzi, I never thought that there were food safety issues in ancient times. The Great Zhou should also hold a 315 event to expose it! ]

Emperor Rentong: What is 315?

Zhao Yi: Ask quickly, my KPI is depending on you!

System: [The Ministry of Justice has been investigating but to no avail. It's just a different restaurant, but there are similar poisoning patients. Moreover, the food can't be found even with a silver needle, and the dog is fine after eating it, so they are starting from there too! ]

Nan Rongxi: [Tongzi, I want to hear the main points, I want to eat melons! Skip these details! ]

Emperor Rentong: Why don't you have any patience?

Zhao Yi: ...

System: [This involves your Minister of War Jia Lei! ]

Hearing this, all the officials were a little shocked. Jia Lei looked very decent and lived in a very simple house. He didn't look like a corrupt official at all!

When Jia Lei heard this, he was also confused. How could food poisoning be related to him?

Nan Rongxi scratched his head: [I see, maybe Jia Lei is the boss behind these restaurants, making money from expired food!]

Emperor Rentong: It is possible, but it doesn’t seem likely!

Zhao Yi and Murong Qing stared at Jia Lei, thinking, this time another big fish is about to be caught!

System: [Listen to me, it's not him, it's his son. Look, this Jia Lei is incorruptible, and his family doesn't want to suffer like him. His son wants to be a boss, so he opened a farm in the suburbs of Beijing, raising chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs! ]

Nan Rongxi was confused: [Could it be that something went wrong with the animals he raised, and then he sold them to the restaurant, causing everyone to be poisoned? ]

Emperor Rentong: What’s going on? What you said this time is so confusing.

Zhao Yi: Please, explain it clearly.

Murong Qing: It turns out it’s not what I thought!

Jia Lei: What on earth did my rebellious son do?

System: [You guessed wrong again, there is nothing wrong with the poultry he raises! ]

Nan Rongxi: [Tongzi, if you continue like this, I will beat you up! ]

The system looked helpless: [It's you who didn't listen to me and insisted on interrupting me! His farm not only sells poultry, but also oil! ]

Nan Rongxi: [Oh my god, could it be that he is so advanced in thinking that he knew how to deal with gutter oil in ancient times?]

System: [I don’t know what the gutter oil you are talking about is, but the oil he made was made from leftovers collected from restaurants in Beijing. He prepared a big pot, poured the leftovers into it, added water, and boiled it. The oil floated on the water, and then he collected the oil.]

[Using his father's connections, he was able to sell the oil to restaurants at market prices. The restaurants thought he was very kind and sold the oil at such affordable prices. Who knew that the oil was poisonous? The restaurants used his oil to cook and served it to the guests, so everyone was poisoned! ]

After hearing this, Nan Rongxi frowned: [I always thought that the food here should be very safe. I never thought that there would be such unscrupulous businessmen in every era. This... this is too disgusting! Anyone who eats this oil will be poisoned. This is equivalent to large-scale poisoning. It is really a crime that deserves death! ! ]

Emperor Rentong: I see. This is really too much...

Zhao Yi: Okay, I finally know how to check!

Jia Lei: This rebellious son, I really hate him! He also blames me for not teaching you well.

Emperor Rentong angrily slapped the dragon throne, his voice full of majesty and unquestionable: "Zhao Yi, this case of food poisoning is extremely bad in nature, I will never tolerate it! You must do your best to track down and bring the mastermind behind the scenes to justice! My order is that once the real culprit is found, he must not be sentenced lightly! Exile him to a bitter and cold place, let him suffer torture for the rest of his life, and live a life worse than death!"

Zhao Yi was fully aware of the seriousness of the case. He bowed deeply and said firmly, "Your Majesty, rest assured that I will do my best to live up to your expectations. The Ministry of Justice will do its utmost to investigate the case until the truth is revealed. I am also deeply indignant about such a crime and will make sure the real culprit receives the punishment he deserves!"

Emperor Rentong nodded, then looked at Jia Lei. He also wanted to give Jia Lei a chance to let him handle this matter personally!
