Chapter 214: Has all the people in the Duke’s Mansion died out?
Yu Shengsheng looked at the bowl of soup and sneered without saying anything.
Jin Baobao blinked and suddenly understood: "Miss, this soup..."
Yu Shengsheng nodded.
"I'll go find them!" Jin Baobao rolled up his sleeves and walked out.
"Wait," Yu Shengsheng stopped her, "Don't be impatient."
"Miss, they dared to poison you, how can we not teach them a lesson?"
"They were just following orders," Yu Shengsheng explained patiently, "After this fight, there will be a next time. What will the next time be? We don't know, so we still have to be vigilant at all times."
"Why not..." Yu Shengsheng's expression turned cold, "Take advantage of their own strategy."
Jin Baobao understood and nodded: "Okay, listen to the young lady, then I will pour the soup."
"Let it cool down in a while," Yu Shengsheng glanced outside, "find a flower and pour it down. Do the same every time you send it to me."
She wanted to see when the flower died.
"yes."
Yu Shengsheng looked at the other dishes. Apart from the chicken soup, were the others safe?
not necessarily.
It seems that the food in the mansion cannot be eaten these days.
But it doesn't matter. She has already made all kinds of preparations for returning to the Su Mansion.
What's a bowl of soup?
Jin Baobao did as he was told: "Miss, what do you want to eat? I'll go out and buy it."
Yu Shengsheng didn’t feel very hungry: “Forget it, let’s do this for tonight and talk about it tomorrow.”
When the kitchen staff came to collect the food boxes, a smile flashed in the eyes of the kitchen maid when she saw the empty soup bowl.
"My Lord, how does this soup taste?"
Yu Shengsheng wiped the corner of his mouth: "Not bad."
"As long as you like it, Madam and the General have given instructions. Just tell me what you want to eat, and I will do my best."
She smiled, flattered him, and left with the food box.
Yu Shengsheng gave a wink, and Jin Baobao followed quietly.
The old woman did not go back to the kitchen, but took a few detours and went to Mrs. Su's yard.
"Madam, Miss Sheng drank the soup and said it tasted good."
In private, none of them called Yu Shengsheng "Princess".
Madam Su paused while drinking her tea and said in a very low voice: "Did you drink it?"
"Yes, I drank it, not a drop left."
Madam Su sighed and said, "Since she likes it, you should do it for her every day."
"Yes, I've made note of it."
Mrs. Su waved her hand, and Wu Lian'er stepped forward to give the old woman a reward, and the old woman thanked her profusely.
Madam Su seemed to be talking to herself: "It's not a poison, it can be cured, and I also want to find a good home for her."
Wu Lian'er lowered her eyes, a cold light flashed in her eyes - I'm afraid you can't plot against her, but this matter can be a stepping stone for me. I have to use Yu Shengsheng as a chess piece.
Only then did Jin Baobao understand what Yu Shengsheng meant when she said that they were just following orders.
It turned out that he was following the orders of Madam Su.
Jin Baobao gritted his teeth, took out a package from his arms and threw it into the fish tank in the yard.
Mrs. Su likes lotus and koi, and the water tank in the yard was specially built for raising fish and lotus.
Lotus flowers float on the water and koi fish swim under the lotus leaves. It is truly a beautiful sight.
Golden Leopard murmured, "I call you beautiful!"
She returned to the yard and hesitated about how to report it, not wanting to make Yu Shengsheng too sad.
Yu Shengsheng was changing the plaster on her arm, and she hurried forward: "Miss, let me help you."
"Did you see it?"
"…Well, miss, don't be sad, it's okay."
Jin Baobao hated himself for being so stupid and incapable of comforting others. It would be better if Hei Bai were here.
Yu Shengsheng's lips curled up slightly: "I'm not sad, don't worry."
"Starting from the next two days, I have to pretend to be sick."
That night, Yu Shengsheng fell asleep. Jin Baobao quietly came out of the house and took out a small bag from the flowers in the yard. There was a slight crisp sound coming from inside the bag. She carried the small bag, crossed the courtyard wall, and headed straight for the Zhenqiao Tower.
"What about black and white?"
The Red Dragon Guard on duty said, "Hei Bai is out on business, what do you want?"
Just as Jin Baobao was hesitating, Hao Mengye came back from outside: "What's the matter?"
"Commander-in-chief," Jin Baobao tightly grasped the small bundle, "I need your help with something."
Jin Baobao took out a small bottle from his small bag and handed it over.
Hao Mengye opened it and smelled a fishy fragrance.
"Chicken soup?" He frowned.
"Poisonous chicken soup," Jin Baobao said angrily, "Mrs. Su is trying to poison Miss."
Hao Mengye's eyes condensed, and a chill burst out: "Who?"
"Mrs. Su, she asked the kitchen to make this soup, and she said she wanted to make it every day. I think the young lady knew about it and said she wanted to take advantage of her."
"However, I can't stand them bullying the young lady like this. I want to know what kind of poison this is, and also, whether there is any problem with the other dishes."
"So, I came to ask Hei Bai for help."
Hao Mengye's face was gloomy: "The Su family is really crazy."
Jin Baobao gnashed his teeth and said, "That's right, none of them are good."
After cursing, he added: "The general is still okay."
Hao Mengye stretched out his hand: "Give me the bag. I have to ask the commander for permission on this matter."
Jin Baobao took a look inside and whispered, "Commander-in-Chief...can you agree? Otherwise, don't tell him..."
Hao Mengye's eyes were stern. "How dare you! What happened in the Zhenqiao Tower must be known to the commander. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will kill you to atone for your brother's sin."
Jin Baobao muttered quietly: "If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Why are you so fierce?"
Hao Mengye walked in with his bag, but before he could leave the account book, he saw Fu Qingyin behind the pillar and hurried over to greet him.
"Commander, you don't have to wait for your subordinates here."
Fu Qingyin: “???” Overthinking.
Hao Mengye was moved and handed over what he had found: "This is the information I have found so far about Su Zhiyi."
"Some information about her last military achievement is still on the way and will arrive in a few days."
Fu Qingyin took it expressionlessly and flipped it over.
Hao Mengye looked at the bundle in his hand and said, "This is what Jin Baobao brought just now. He said that Madam Su poisoned Miss Yu and asked for help to see what the poison was. Take a look..."
Fu Qingyin raised his eyelids and looked at the bag: "She was poisoned just after she returned home from Zhenqiao Tower. Is this to harm her or to slap Zhenqiao Tower in the face?
Hao Mengye couldn't figure out what this had to do with Zhenqiaolou's face.
However, if the commander says there is, then there is.
He nodded: "You are right. I think this matter must be thoroughly investigated and they must be taught a lesson."
Fu Qingyin said nonchalantly: "Since it was Madam Su who made the move, then let's slap the face of the Rongguo Mansion."
Hao Mengye thought quickly: "Before Duke Rong, there was a manor outside the city, which was given by the late emperor. The land is fertile, and there are orchards and grain fields. I heard that there are hot springs in the back mountain outside the manor."
"Because of that hot spring, there was a conflict with someone, and two lives were lost."
Hao Mengye frowned slightly: "However, Duke Rong has been dead for more than two years. I don't know if this method will work."
"Are they all dead?" Fu Qingyin turned and walked inside, his voice cold and straightforward, "Since Duke Rong has passed away, there is no more Duke Rong in the world, so where does the Duke Rong's Mansion come from?"
"The manor bestowed by the late emperor should also be taken back."
A cell inside the Zhenqiao Building was locked with an iron door.
Fu Qingyin came to the door and said, "Open the door."
The door opened, revealing a room filled with warm light. A man with white hair and beard, wearing handcuffs and leg shackles, was busy working at a table with his back to the door.
"You're here," he said without turning his head, "what's the matter?"
Fu Qingyin put the bundle on the table: "See what kind of poison is inside."
The old man glanced at it, his hands moving non-stop: "Come over early tomorrow morning and write a list for you. I can't take care of it now."
Fu Qingyin stood in front of his desk for a while, watching him muttering and busying around.
After a while, the old man asked him, "Anything else?"
"No," he said, turning and walking out.
With a "crash", the iron door closed again.
Jin Baobao sneaked into the yard. Yu Shengsheng was still asleep. She breathed a sigh of relief and kept watch in the outer room.
I was wondering where Hei Bai had gone. Could something big have happened again?
Hei Bai sneezed – couldn’t the girls in the brothel use some good perfume powder?
Let him sneeze here late at night.
Whenever he sneezed, the people under his knife would shudder, fearing that his hand would lose stability and the knife would chop them off.
"My lord, I don't know how I have offended you. If you want to talk, we can give you any money I have!"
