Chapter 276 Nearly Falling into the Outhouse
Jia Sheng's incident immediately caused quite a stir.
It also alarmed Lu Xuan.
It just so happened that he was too busy recently and had no time to go home to sleep, so he just rested in the yamen.
So after Jia Sheng got into trouble, someone quickly reported it to Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan was woken in the middle of his sleep, his face darkening. He hurriedly got dressed and stood up. When he heard that Jia Sheng was vomiting and having diarrhea, his face darkened even further.
Fortunately, there was a professional doctor in the yamen. After examining Jia Sheng, he said that he was poisoned.
The doctor quickly prescribed medicine and made a large bowl of detoxifying soup for Jia Sheng to drink.
Jia Sheng thought the medicine was too bitter and nearly spit it out, but the doctor quickly lifted his chin and pressed on him, forcing him to drink it.
Then he drank the rest of the medicine.
As a result, after drinking the medicine, Jia Sheng vomited even more violently, and his legs became weak from diarrhea, and he almost fell into the toilet.
Almost lost half my life.
When Jiang Chi received the news and rushed to the Heiqiwei Yamen to see Jia Sheng, he saw him lying on the bed with a pale face, looking terminally ill and dying.
He was startled and quickly asked Lu Xuan: "Commander Lu, what is he doing..."
Lu Xuan felt a little guilty, but his expression remained unchanged. "He was poisoned and nearly died. Fortunately, the doctor from the government office detoxified him in time, saving his life."
Jiang Chi frowned: "How could he suddenly be poisoned?"
Lu Xuan suddenly sneered, "I also want to know why he was suddenly poisoned! Whoever dares to stir up trouble in the Black Qilin Guards' office will be made to regret coming into this world!"
Seeing that he was obviously very angry, Jiang Chi silently shut up to avoid angering Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan continued, "I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter!"
Jiang Chi quickly complimented him, "Of course I trust Commander Lu! After all, there's no case in this world that you can't figure out."
After a pause, he asked curiously, "I wonder if the coroner has found out the real cause of death of the deceased yesterday?"
Lu Xuan nodded. "That man was also poisoned, his intestines were ruptured, and even if Jia Sheng hadn't hit him, he would have died."
Jiang Chi breathed a sigh of relief: "So, he wasn't beaten to death by Jia Sheng, but died of poisoning?"
Lu Xuan said, "That's certainly possible, but it's also possible that Jia Sheng was too harsh. He was beaten to death by Jia Sheng before the poison had time to take effect. This matter needs further investigation."
Jiang Chi was a little displeased: "Commander Lu means that Jia Sheng can't go back for the time being?"
Lu Xuan curled his lips: "Not bad!"
When Jia Sheng came to the Heiqiwei Yamen yesterday, he looked fine, but after staying there for just one night, he became half-dead.
If he were to go back like this, how would outsiders view his Black Kirin Guard?
Moreover, he suspected that Jia Sheng had already been poisoned, but had a sudden attack in the middle of the night last night.
This matter must be investigated carefully!
Seeing that Lu Xuan was determined not to let the person go, Jiang Chi did not dare to rob him, so he could only leave temporarily.
Lu Xuan was worried that someone within the Black Kirin Guard might have been bribed, so he secretly poisoned Jia Sheng. After a thorough investigation, he actually found quite a few problematic people.
Then they followed the clues and arrested many more people.
So for the next few days, the entire capital was in a state of panic, as if the Black Kirin Guards could be seen arresting people everywhere.
Xie Ying was not affected at all.
She stayed at home every day, watched shows everywhere through Xiangxiang, and ate a lot of different kinds of melons.
Unfortunately, Lu Xuan and Luo Zheng investigated for several days but were unable to find the mastermind behind the plot against Xie Ying.
Although they asked the painter to draw a portrait of the person who contacted Liu Xi based on his confession, the man had obviously disguised his appearance and kept his face hidden tightly, and no obvious features could be seen on his body.
Trying to find that person is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
When Luo Zheng told Xie Xiu the result, Xie Xiu was so angry that his veins popped out and he was filled with murderous intent.
After a long while, he suppressed the murderous aura that seemed to be tangible and said calmly: "It seems that the other party came prepared, so it will not be easy for others to find him.
This kind of person is definitely not a mediocre person. He dares to hide behind the Jiang family and plot against them. He will never give up easily. If there is a first time, there will be a second and a third time.
As long as he keeps attacking, he won't be able to hide forever!"
Luo Zheng comforted him: "It's good that you think this way. Your most urgent task now is to take the imperial examination. Your current status is still too low. Only by passing the imperial examination and becoming an official can you completely turn your life around."
"I understand." Xie Xiu nodded and asked, "I wonder how the investigation into the Chen family is going? I heard they hid gunpowder. How could they be so bold? Could they be up to something bad?"
Luo Zheng thought about the Chen family and frowned quickly: "This matter is a bit troublesome. The Chen family is too ambitious and has been developing secretly for many years. I don't know how many hidden tricks they have.
Although the Chen family has been arrested, Chen Shou has already escaped and his whereabouts are unknown. The Chen family's downfall this time is also related to Yingying. You'd better be more careful in the future.
If they can plot against Jia Sheng, they might plot against you one day."
Xie Xiu was very surprised: "How could the Chen family's affairs be related to Yingying? She's still a child!"
Although he knew that Xie Ying had an extraordinary background and also learned about the little prince in the palace from Xie Ying's inner thoughts, he did not know the details.
Naturally, he didn't expect that this matter would be related to Xie Ying.
Luo Zheng looked at Xie Xiu with complicated eyes. Thinking of Xie Ying's reputation as the lucky star, he felt a little jealous of Xie Xiu's good luck.
"Do you know how big a thing happened in the palace? That day, the eldest princess brought Yingying into the palace to meet the Queen Mother.
As it turned out, Concubine Li happened to be with the empress dowager with the little prince, hoping that the empress dowager would agree to let Yingying, the lucky little girl, enter the palace to accompany the little prince.
The eldest princess refused to agree, and Concubine Jiang and Queen Chen rushed over after hearing the news. As soon as Queen Chen picked up Yingying, she burst into tears, and the medicine doctor discovered the poison hidden in Queen Chen's body.
If Yingying hadn't suddenly burst into tears, they wouldn't have thought of asking the Godly Doctor to check and discover the poison in Queen Chen's body.
Afterwards, Empress Chen and Concubine Li both met with misfortune, and the Chen family was surrounded by the Black Kirin Guards. That night, a fire broke out and there was a gunpowder explosion.
Tell me, if you were Chen Shou, would you hold a grudge against Yingying?"
Xie Xiu was so shocked that he couldn't speak: "..."
He never expected that his daughter's crying would lead to such a big change!
He looked at Luo Zheng with complicated eyes, and said in a strange tone: "So what you mean is that the Chen family and Queen Chen, who you have spent so many years trying to overthrow, were overthrown by Yingying's crying?"
Luo Zheng narrowed his eyes dangerously and looked at Xie Xiu with cold eyes, suspecting that this kid was itching for trouble.
He raised his chin with a somewhat proud expression: "The greatest contributor is naturally the Godly Doctor of Medicine."
Of course, there is also the eldest princess's little son.
That kid really dares to say anything!
Thinking of what Situ Yuan said at that time, Luo Zheng's expression became a little strange.
