Chapter 957: Something went wrong

Han Mulei looked at those who had fainted with a nervous look on his face. Most of them were children from wealthy families in the capital. If something happened, it would be impossible to suppress it even if he wanted to.

Just when he was so anxious that his throat was smoking, Zhou Sheng came to him.

"Your Highness, how about sending a letter to Young Master Liu to see if he can get some useful information?"

The condition of these people is getting worse and worse, but the specific source of the poison has not been found yet.

It would be better to send a message to Liu Zhi and see if he can get some information from Han Muchen.

After all, this recipe is his, so why did something go wrong when it came to them? I think there must be something he doesn't know, and maybe he can find a solution.

"Okay." Han Mulei nodded quickly.

He thought the same as Zhou Sheng. Since the recipe belonged to Han Muchen, he should know the secret behind it.

I was just so angry that I sent an undercover agent for several months to get a prescription, but such a big problem happened.

It took a day for the news to reach the Far North.

Early in the morning, Qin Chuchu was having breakfast with the man when Liu Zhi hurried over.

"My Lord, this is not good! Oh, it's a great joy!"

“………………”Qin Chuchu was eating the bun in her hand.

Look how anxious he is, as if something big has happened.

The man next to him said nothing, as he had already received the breaking news last night.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Liu Zhi calmed down and showed a proud expression.

"Your Highness, Han Mulei is in big trouble this time. I heard from my servants that there's a big commotion in the capital. Han Mulei's newly opened hot pot restaurant..."

He told her everything that happened in the capital, and he looked relieved, as if he had a huge grudge against Han Mulei.

"You mean they're all poisoned?" Qin Chuchu looked at Liu Zhi in surprise.

I forgot to eat the bun in my hand, thinking about what he said.

I also heard from Huo Yanwang before that Han Mulei stole the recipe.

Since the formula was stolen, it must be exactly the same, but now there is a large-scale poisoning, there is only one possibility.

They mistook the wild grass for star anise, which is poisonous.

"Yes, Princess, do you know something?"

Liu Zhi looked at Qin Chuchu eagerly, hoping that she could say something useful, after all, the hot pot recipe was hers.

Upon hearing what he said, Qin Chuchu shook her head in denial.

"How would I know anything? The recipe wasn't mine."

After saying this, he curled his lips in disgust and continued to eat the bun in his hand.

You stole someone else's things and got into trouble, and now you want her to clean up the mess. That's wishful thinking.

Seeing that he didn't get any useful answers, Liu Zhi's eyes flashed with calculation, and he looked at Han Muchen in a flattering manner.

"Your Highness, I'm a little worried. Now that Han Mulei's shop has such a big incident, will he push the responsibility onto us? After all, the hot pot recipe was created by the princess."

When Qin Chuchu heard him say this, she became angry before Han Muchen could say anything.

"Where does he get such a big face!"

Qin Chuchu was so angry that she threw the bun into the bowl, her eyes almost popping out.

I've never seen anyone steal someone's recipe, cause trouble, and then push the responsibility onto them.

Seeing Qin Chuchu speaking, Liu Zhi nodded in agreement.

"Yes, yes, the princess is right, but I also find it strange. The formula is obviously the same, so why did it go wrong when it came to him?"

He pretended to be nonchalant while stealing glances at Qin Chuchu's expression.

He clenched his fists nervously, hoping that this stupid woman would say something useful, otherwise the Second Prince really couldn't wait any longer.

Seeing that Chuchu was so easily fooled, the man frowned slightly.

Afraid that Chuchu would say something useful, he was about to change the subject, but before he could open his mouth, he was interrupted by Qin Chuchu's words.

"Needless to say! He did something bad, and he got his comeuppance!"

Qin Chuchu waved her hand and left angrily.

"..." Liu Zhi.

It was a waste of time asking, I didn't get anything out of it.

But Feng Liu and Feng Qi on the side breathed a sigh of relief and looked at their master again.

“………………”

Fortunately, the princess was smart at the moment and didn't say anything.

Seeing Liu Zhi leave awkwardly, Feng Qi approached the man and said in a low voice:

"Master, what should the princess know?"

Looking at the princess's expression just now, I think she must know something.

I thought I would get the point after being fooled by Liu Zhi. This time I am really smart!

"Yeah." Han Muchen also raised the corners of his lips proudly.

Because he also saw it. Although Chu Chu shook her head to deny it, from the rolling look in her eyes just now, he guessed that she must know something.

While they were talking, Qin Chuchu ran back happily.

"Your Highness, do you think my dress looks good? It was made by Aunt Liu."

Qin Chuchu ran up to the man, turned around twice curiously, and touched her new cotton-padded jacket.

I don’t know what kind of fabric this cotton coat is made of, but it looks like silk and is soft and elastic when worn.

The only drawback is that they are a bit too loose, and the straight-leg pants look like wide-leg pants.

The sleeves are straight and the clothes are loose-fitting. Although it looks good, I am afraid it is not warm enough.

The trouser legs and sleeves are so wide, what if the wind blows in when I go out?

But I just thought so in my heart. After all, this was Aunt Liu's intention, and this is how people here dress.

"It looks good!" The man looked at it carefully and gave a positive evaluation.

After hearing what the man said, Qin Chuchu became even happier and turned around twice more.

"Your Majesty, I like this color too."

She looked at the man with a smile. Aunt Liu understood her thoughts more and more. She didn't like those that were too bright, and she liked this lake blue more and more.

Seeing that the princess was in such a good mood, Feng Qi was just about to take the opportunity to ask about the recipe, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Liu Qing in the kitchen.

Although he looked like he was working at the moment, he was leaning towards this side intentionally or unintentionally, with his neck stretched out, obviously wanting to hear something.

She didn't ask the question she was about to say. The man saw it, just glanced at her lightly and stood up.

"My dear, I am going out to distribute firewood to everyone. Do you want to come with me?"

The firewood chopped in the square should be ready to burn after being dried in the sun for a few days.

"Yes!" Qin Chuchu nodded decisively.

He touched his new cotton-padded clothes again. He had been stuck in the house for several days.

I heard it's getting colder outside, so it's a good time to wear new clothes and go out to experience it.

"Okay." The man nodded.

Pulling Qin Chuchu out of the house, Liu Qing stretched his neck and looked at her for a long time, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

“………………”

That damn woman just knew how to show off, but in the end she didn't hear anything useful.

But I have to admit, she looks really good in that lake blue dress.

It makes the face look even whiter, and it’s all because of the good material of the clothes. If I wore it, it wouldn’t be bad.
