"The daily prescription is the same, so there shouldn't be any problems with the residue."
Ni Yueshan frowned: "Confused!"
Then, Ni Yueshan walked quickly outside.
Ni Yueshan arrived at Miao Yuan's small kitchen. The smell of medicine was still lingering inside, but the medicine jars had been cleaned thoroughly.
Ni Yueshan looked towards the people in the kitchen: "Why is the medicine jar empty? Where are the medicine residues?"
"There are people specifically responsible for decocting and boiling the medicine. After delivering the medicine to Madam, the residue in the medicine pot is naturally cleaned up. Now that the residue is gone, someone must have cleaned it up!"
Ni Yueshan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who cleaned it?"
The servants hesitated and looked at each other, no one noticed.
"Ni Yueshan's forehead veins popped out, "Is this how you do your job?"
Miao Yuan was poisoned, most likely because there was something wrong with the medicine juice, and the medicine juice came from the medicinal materials. If the medicinal materials were tampered with, the residue would be the key!
Therefore, if you want to determine the real cause of Miao Yuan’s poisoning, you have to check the drug residue!
"Miss, please calm down. The medicine residue will be poured into the rotten water bucket in the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion every day..."
backyard.
Ni Yueshan ordered his servants to empty the bucket and check the medicinal residue inside.
Because it was only noon, there was not much garbage piled up in the mansion, so naturally the rotten water was not full, and the smell was not strong enough to be pungent.
Ni Yueshan stood aside, her eyes sweeping across the rotten water and debris on the ground, looking for medicinal residue.
"It smells so bad, what is my sister doing?"
Ni Yueshuang's voice came from not far away, and from the tone of her voice, she came to watch the fun.
Ni Yueshan turned his head and saw Ni Yueshuang walking towards him with a faint smile on her lips.
Ni Yueshan frowned and looked at Ni Yueshuang: "My mother was poisoned, but there are only a few masters in the mansion. The doctor said that the poison was in the residue of my mother's medicine."
"So what do you mean? The one who harmed Madam was the master of our Xiangfu? It could be me, or Aunt Tian? Or maybe Third Sister and Father?"
"Second sister, you don't have to identify yourself. The person who murdered my mother must have connections in the mansion, otherwise he wouldn't be able to accomplish anything. It's just that I don't have evidence at the moment, otherwise I would definitely arrest you first."
Ni Yueshuang laughed heartily. "Big sister, you're really good at throwing dirty water on others. Just because I'm your sister and the head of the Xiangfu, you're going to doubt me?"
"Then sister, you must try your best to verify it. If you find anything, come and arrest me immediately!"
Then Ni Yueshuang turned and left with disdain.
Ni Yueshan looked at the servants who were busy searching for medicinal residues and said, "Bring the servant who boiled the medicine today to me!"
A maidservant timidly approached Ni Yueshan and knelt down. "Greetings, young lady. I am the mistress's servant and have served her for several years. I dare not poison her!"
"You were the one who boiled the medicine, so why weren't you the one who dumped the dregs?"
"I boiled the medicine and sent it to Madam, but I didn't expect that the medicine pot would be cleaned after I returned. I am innocent!"
"So, someone could enter and exit my mother's kitchen, a very important place, openly and dump out the medicine residue without anyone noticing..."
Will this person become invisible? Or will he become invisible?
Ni Yueshan's face was cold and his eyes were sharp. The servants knelt on the ground and dared not say a word.
Ni Yueshan smiled and said, "Since neither of you is willing to provide any clues, then let's fight together."
Ni Yueshan's tone became more serious, and everyone present kowtowed and begged for mercy, but Ni Yueshan was not a merciful person!
The servants were taken away to be caned, wailing one by one. Ni Yueshan folded his arms and looked at them, "Anyone who can provide clues will be spared."
Ni Yueshan sat down beside him and waited.
"The old slave says, the old slave says."
Ni Yueshan stretched out his hand to stop it, and the sound of the stick falling stopped.
Ni Yueshan looked at the old woman and asked, "Tell me, what do you want to offer?"
"Old slave, I work in the kitchen. I don't want to get involved, but I'm not in good health and I'm afraid I'll be beaten to death."
"Today, after lunch, I was hungry, so I went to the kitchen. I saw a figure coming out of the kitchen. But the personal maid beside the Madam can just tell us the maid if there is anything. Why would I have to go to the kitchen myself?"
"I went into the kitchen and didn't see any signs of a fire. The maid wasn't going to make food, but was doing something else!"
So it is very likely that they took advantage of the time when the medicine juice was taken away to quickly deal with the residue in the medicine jar.
"My mother's personal maid? Who?"
*
Miao Yuan was still in a coma, and Ni Yueshan called all the servants in Miao Yuan's room to the courtyard.
Everyone knelt on the ground. Ni Yueshan pointed at one of the well-dressed and strikingly dressed women and said, "You are the most gorgeously dressed of all the maids. You dress so beautifully, who are you trying to seduce?"
