Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again
Chapter 33 New clues
Thinking of this, Xu Xingyin no longer felt uncomfortable. He happily found a seat and sat down, smiling.
"Forget it, just consider it as my way of repaying your kindness today."
Upon hearing this, Jing Zhichen raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Xu Xingyin, thinking that this girl was really smart. From her expression, it was obvious that she had guessed why he came today.
"Miss Xu's love is really light."
Xu Xingyin smiled, pretending not to understand the deeper meaning of his words, and then asked, "Are you hungry, Your Highness?"
"Not hungry."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone's stomach growled. Jing Zhichen looked up and saw Xu Xingyin blushing for a rare moment. He laughed and said, "I'm hungry."
"Exit."
Jing Zhichen taunted Xu Xingyin with a mild remark, but still lowered the curtain to hide the people inside, and then called the eunuch into the room to order food.
Xu Xingyin is a generous person. With such delicious food in front of her, she would not care so much about Jing Zhichen!
Xu Xingyin pointed to a few signature dishes on the menu, and in the spirit of putting on a complete show, she turned her head and asked Jing Zhichen in a delicate voice.
"Sir, do you have any dietary restrictions?"
When Jing Zhichen heard this, the hair on his body stood up and he covered his eyes and turned his head away.
"I will not eat."
"Oh!" Xu Xingyin closed the menu and returned it to the turtle slave, "That's all. Sorry for the trouble."
"okay!"
After about an incense stick of time, most of the dishes ordered by Xu Xingyin were served.
She didn’t know if it was because she was hungry today or what, but Xu Xingyin felt that the food at Yichunyuan was very much to her taste.
By the time the turtle slave brought the last dish, Xu Xingyin was already too full to eat anymore. The turtle slave placed the dish on the table and said with a smile.
"Sir, Miss, your dishes have been served. Please enjoy your meal."
Xu Xingyin looked at one of the bowls of soup in confusion, "I didn't order that dish. Did I get the wrong one?"
"You didn't take the wrong girl." The turtle slave explained with a smile, "This mung bean and lily soup is a free gift from us. It is given to anyone who eats at our restaurant."
Jing Zhichen was as silent as a log. Xu Xingyin was also very bored being alone, so he started to tease the turtle slave with a smile.
"Other restaurants serve good wine and food, but you just send your guests away with a bowl of sweet soup."
The turtle slave laughed and said, "Miss, you don't know, this mung bean and lily soup is a good thing! This is a medicinal diet specially prepared by our Jinhua mother for the doctor. It clears away heat and detoxifies, and can also relieve hangovers!"
"No wonder your store always sells more wine than other places. It turns out that it's not that the drinkers can drink it, but that your sweet soup can help them sober up."
Jing Zhichen, who had been silent, suddenly said, "Jinhua's mother is really good at business."
"Hehe, you are a sensible man. But we are also doing this for the good of our guests, right?"
The eunuch slave smiled, flattered Jing Zhichen a few more words, and then left.
Just a few short sentences seemed to have opened up the dead end that had been blocking Xu Xingyin.
Yes!
I remember when I came here for the first time, besides the dishes, there was also a bowl of sweet soup on the table which had been drunk up!
The bowl of sweet soup had been inspected by people from Shuntian Prefecture and was found to be non-toxic. Moreover, when she was collecting the money for the dishes, she only paid attention to the two dishes that had caused harm, and naturally ignored the bowl of sweet soup.
If the sweet soup is really as Gui Nu said, it has the effect of clearing away heat, detoxifying and sobering up...
Then Tian Zitao would never die because of two conflicting dishes!
Firstly, this sweet soup can help sober people up, and to a certain extent, it will reduce the toxic effect of alcohol. If it were just that chrysanthemum and chicken were incompatible, the toxicity would not be so overbearing!
Secondly, this sweet soup can detoxify. Even if the opposing poison is overbearing, Tian Zitao will not die immediately after being suppressed by the sweet soup!
Therefore, Tian Zitao did not die from the incompatibility of the food with his food, but had some other cause of death!
Qionghua, has been lying all the time.
Thinking of this, Xu Xingyin suddenly jumped up, scaring Jing Zhichen so much that he almost knocked over his teacup.
"Your Highness! I have to leave first because of something urgent. I hope you can forgive me!"
After saying this, the man opened the door and ran out.
Halfway through the run, she went back to the house and took away the bowl of mung bean and lily soup, without even giving Jing Zhichen time to respond.
The people around him were also sent away, so it didn’t matter much whether Xu Xingyin was there or not.
Therefore, Jing Zhichen continued to drink his tea calmly, not even bothering to open his eyelids.
Xu Xingyin ran back to Tian Tian and the others' box without stopping for a moment. Seeing that they were looking worried, he told them the news he had just learned.
"Give me the sweet soup. I'll take it back to the Northern Pacification Office and ask someone to study it carefully."
Lu Xu made a serious decision after hearing this. "It's getting late. You two should go back. It's beyond the rules for a girl to stay out so late. Please take the trouble to send Jiaojiao back home."
Tian Tian finally came back to her senses from her shock. Knowing there was no other way, she could only nod.
"Don't worry, I will never let the Xu family embarrass Jiaojiao."
After Tian Tian finished speaking, she dragged Xu Xingyin away from Yichunyuan.
On the way back, the atmosphere between the two was a little depressed. Xu Xingyin looked at the vast moonlight outside, and his heart was also quite confused. After working hard for several days, he saw that the clouds were about to clear, but he ended up back at the starting point in twists and turns.
Who is the murderer?
Qionghua, or someone else?
If it was Qionghua, why didn't she reveal the real method of committing the crime?
Why did he counter-confess?
And if she had other ways to deliver a fatal blow, why would she go to so much trouble to set up a killing trap and give others an advantage?
If it wasn't Qionghua, why did she plead guilty in the first place?
Who does she want to hide for, and who does she want to protect?
Xu Xingyin thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. Seeing that they were about to reach the teahouse where they had settled Danfeng, she spoke after careful consideration.
"Yongyi, I want to continue investigating this case, but..."
Xu Xingyin paused, then continued, "As a girl in the boudoir, there are always many things that are beyond our control. Even going out is difficult. Can you help me?"
Tian Tian was quite touched by these words. Indeed, there are always too many restrictions on women in this world.
"How to help?"
Xu Xingyin smiled and whispered his plan to Tian Tian, who also laughed after hearing it.
"No problem, I'll take care of it."
……
The next day, Xu Xingyin let Danying put on makeup for her listlessly. When she thought about having to pay her respects to Old Madam Xu soon, she couldn't help but sigh.
Although it was Tian Tian who personally sent him back home yesterday, he also made up a perfectly appropriate excuse to fool everyone.
But with her group of sisters who can create waves even without any wind, there will inevitably be another arrangement after today.
Although Xu Xingyin was not defeated in an argument with them, he was just too lazy to deal with them and gave him a headache just thinking about it.
Although he had a headache, seeing that the time had come, Xu Xingyin still obediently went to Old Madam Xu's yard.
