Master of Rebirth

"Don't be serious." Resisting the urge to touch that handsome face full of expectations, Wang Qi said coldly, "Let's talk about what's in front of us."

"Okay, okay." Seeing the beauty upset, Zhao Jing felt sorry for her, but she still accepted it as soon as she saw it, "No matter what kind of person this Boss Yong is, the fact that he likes to take advantage proves that the flour is not poisonous when it is taken out of the warehouse. The poison can only be injected by the people in the kitchen, at least those who can enter the kitchen."

Wang Qi nodded: "Not bad."

"I have been away from Linglongzhai for so many years. The people who can enter and leave the kitchen at will have changed quite a bit. Hurry up and give me a list of these people, so that I can send someone to investigate and see who is suspected." Zhao Jing said.

Wang Qi hesitated for a moment before saying: "In recent years, Linglongzhai has been managed by Wang Sheng. Whether it is people or accounting, Wang Sheng is in charge. Now who is in the kitchen, I can't tell."

"Linglongzhai is the capital of your life, so you can trust Wang Sheng to be the shopkeeper?" Zhao Jing asked in surprise, "You trust Wang Sheng so much, are you afraid that he will steal your shop?"

Wang Qi smiled indifferently, "Wang Sheng is not that kind of person, even if he stole the shop, it doesn't matter. In fact, I have already planned to give up the shop to Wang Sheng. If you come back later, I may have I left Pingyao County and went elsewhere to make a living."

Seeing Wang Qi say these words calmly, Zhao Jing felt inexplicably that he was serious.He really planned to leave Pingyao County and leave everything in the past.

"Why do you have such thoughts? Leaving Pingyao County, where are you going to go and what will you live on?" Zhao Jing suddenly felt a little scared. If he came back a few days late, would he really miss Wang Qi? Never see this person again?

Wang Qi smiled and said, "I didn't leave, what are you worried about?"

It was only then that he realized that the expression on his face might be full of panic, Zhao Jing quickly turned his face away, and denied it uncomfortably, "Who is worried, even if you go to the ends of the world, I can find you."

"Okay, okay, I know Ah Man is the most powerful." Wang Qi straightened Zhao Jing's messy hair on his forehead, and asked with a smile: "Apart from these, what else did you hear from Lord Liu?"

Not liking Wang Qi's coaxing tone and actions to get along with him, Zhao Jing pulled his hand down, held it tightly, and said, "Magistrate Liu also suspected the cause of Wang Xue's death, so he went to see you Before, ask Wu Zuo to check the difference between the dim sum bought by Wang's family and other people's dim sum."

"Did you stay and wait for the result?" Wang Qi asked.

Zhao Jing said as it should: "Of course, I not only stayed and waited for the result, but also took advantage of the time when the assistant was not paying attention."

"It doesn't matter if you arrived at the county government earlier than me?" Wang Qi finally couldn't help asking the question that had been bothering him, "But what method did you use to sneak in and eavesdrop on their conversation?" , still doing so arrogantly? Could it be that the people in the county government are all decorations?"

Thinking that Wang Qi doesn't know martial arts, it's not worth mentioning that it's not worth mentioning for people with strong martial arts.Zhao Jing smiled and said: "It's actually very simple. I sneaked in while they weren't paying attention, and then listened to it from the hidden beam. These are nothing to us martial arts practitioners. Don't worry, I do this kind of thing a lot It's never been found."

Wang Qi was speechless for a moment, feeling that with Zhao Jing around, he would not want to have any privacy in the future.

"Is there any difference between Xue's dim sum and other people's dim sum?" Wang Qi sighed and asked instead.

Zhao Jing said with some disappointment: "It's a pity that Wu Zuo didn't find anything wrong, and I didn't see anything wrong either."

"You have helped me a lot." Unlike Zhao Jing's disappointment, Wang Qi's eyes lit up: "Whether the matter of Linglongzhai has anything to do with Wang Long, I am not fully sure, but Xue's death is definitely related to Wang Long's death." Long related."

Seeing that he seemed to have discovered something, Zhao Jing hurriedly asked: "If Mrs. Xue's dim sum is the same as other dim sum, doesn't that mean that Wang Long didn't tamper with it? Why do you doubt him?"

"Because of a lot of willingness, the relationship between Wang Long and Mrs. Xue has not been good in the past few years. He has the motive to kill Mrs. Xue. Let's put aside Mrs. Xue for now. If the poison was poisoned in Linglongzhai, the poisoned There are so many people, but there are no dead people. This shows that the poison in the dim sum is not enough to cause death." Wang Qi said: "But Mrs. Xue still died, which proves that she was poisoned more than others."

Zhao Jing said: "Measuring this thing is not easy to control. Maybe other people only ate one piece, but Mrs. Xue was greedy and ate a few more pieces. Or maybe the poisoner didn't mix the arsenic in the flour. As for Mrs. Xue, it was unlucky to have a snack with a lot of poison on it."

"It's also possible, but it's just too much of a coincidence." Wang Qi said: "If you talk about eating too much, don't children like sweets more than adults like Mrs. Xue? They are weaker and more likely to die. If It's just that the poison has not been mixed, so there can't be only one piece of such snacks, and it's even more impossible for them to all be bought by Mrs. Xue. When so many old people and children are fine, only Mrs. Xue has an accident. I guess Mr. Liu is also the same. I became suspicious of this, so I asked Wu to make a serious inspection."

Zhao Jing immediately understood what Wang Qi meant. If Xue Shi's death was just because the arsenic/cream in the flour was not mixed, then this kind of coincidence is indeed too accurate.Besides, the old man and the child were weaker, and they were able to survive, but a young woman with a strong body in the Xue family died.No matter how you look at it, it doesn't make sense.

"Since there is an internal response in Linglongzhai, do you think this person deliberately sold more poisonous snacks to Xue Shi?" Zhao Jing asked.

Wang Qi shook her head, "There is a division of labor in Linglong Zhai, and the people in the kitchen don't overlap with the dim sum shoppers outside. Even the people inside the kitchen have different divisions of labor. Those who mix noodles, mix stuffing and make dim sum They are all different. Everyone performs their own duties and does not interfere with each other. Except for Wang Sheng, Chang An, and Chang Shun, there will not be a fourth person in Linglong Zhai who can run through the whole process. Chang An and Chang Shun only take care of the kitchen, which is very difficult. Don't meddle in the business outside. In this way, Wang Sheng is the only one who is suspected."

"You're right." Zhao Jing nodded, "If the traitor is someone from the kitchen, even if he can poison the flour, he can't guarantee to buy the poisonous dim sum to Mrs. Xue. If the traitor is from the outside The guy who sells dim sum, although he can control the whereabouts of the dim sum, but he has no ability to enter the kitchen to poison. Unless this person is Wang Sheng. But Wang Sheng can't make the dim sum himself. Tell me, could it be several people? Committing the crime together? Some of the dough maker, the dim sum maker, and the dim sum shopper were bribed."

Without even thinking about it, Wang Qi said directly, "It's unlikely."

"Why?" Zhao Jing asked.

Wang Qi calmly analyzed: "It is possible to bribe a few people in the periphery of Linglongzhai, but the people in the kitchen are all carefully selected by Wang Sheng, and it is impossible to be easily subdued. What's more, let them do the poisoning. How many people have the courage to buy and sell people, ordinary people? Even if Wang Long has the ability to find such a person to work for him in Linglongzhai, after all, there are other people working with them. A small action may interfere with their progress. From poisoning to successfully poisoning Mrs. Xue, it is very difficult and there are many variables."

Wang Qi had been talking for a long time, Zhao Jing was afraid that his mouth would dry out, so he quickly poured him a cup of tea.

After drinking tea, Wang Qi licked her mouth, and then said: "If I were Wang Long, and wanted to kill Mrs. Xue and blame Linglongzhai, I would definitely not be so troublesome."

"Then what will you do?" Zhao Jing asked.

Wang Qidao: "In fact, it's very simple to think about it. Today, all the snacks in Linglong Zhai were poisoned, but basically no one was poisoned to death. This shows that they just want to make things bigger, involve as many people as possible, and make Linglong Linglongzhai's reputation is ruined due to the big troubles. Even if the county finds out the truth and restores Linglongzhai's innocence in the future, it will be difficult to restore the reputation. I have to say that Wang Long's step is considered It succeeded, he has successfully destroyed Linglongzhai."

"Since the goal can be achieved by making things worse, why did he poison Xue Shi to death?" Zhao Jing said.

Wang Qi sneered, and said: "Mr. Xue is just uncovering the cause of this incident, a trigger/fuse. Think about it carefully, why is the Linglongzhai incident so big? Isn't it because of Xue Mrs. Xue died, and the quarrel came to the Yamen, and then Linglongzhai was involved. If Mrs. Xue was not dead, and other people were simply poisoned and not in danger of their lives, then these people might go directly to Linglongzhai for an explanation instead of I must choose to report to the government. If the government has not been alarmed, I may suppress the matter. Even if the government has been alarmed, as long as no human life is involved, the major incident can be reduced to a small one. I am afraid that Wang Long not only wants to bring down Linglongzhai, but also I am a person who makes me completely unable to turn over."

"If things are as you said, shouldn't it be better to kill a few more people? It can not only make Xue's death less conspicuous, but also make things worse." Zhao Jing said.

Wang Qi said: "It is indeed better to do this, and it is also in line with Wang Long's style. I think he must have instructed the person who poisoned, but he did not do what she wanted."

"Why?" Zhao Jing asked.

Wang Qi's eyes darkened, and said: "Either the poisoner is unable to do more meticulously, so he can only mix the arsenic/cream in the flour, or the poisoner just wants to make things bigger and doesn't He didn't want people to die, so he didn't listen to Wang Long's orders. And Wang Long can't control other people's life and death, he can only control Xue's."

Zhao Jing said: "Then how did Mrs. Xue die?"

"I have an idea, but it's just a guess." Wang Qi said, "There must be someone from Wang Long in Linglong Zhai. This person poisoned the flour. And Wang Long knew the time of poisoning, so he specially bought it on this day. The dim sum from Linglongzhai was given to Mrs. Xue. Besides the dim sum, Mrs. Xue may have eaten other things containing arsenic/scent, which is why she died."

Zhao Jing said: "What you mean is that Wang Long used Linglongzhai's dim sum as his shield. He knew that the poison in the dim sum would not kill him, so he poisoned Mrs. Xue elsewhere, and rushed before the county government came. Clean it up. In this way, Wu Zuo will only detect arsenic/frost in the dim sum, which can be used to blame Linglongzhai."

"That's right." Wang Qi nodded, "Wang Long's move is considered ingenious. If only Xue's accident occurs, even if there is something wrong with Linglongzhai's dim sum, County Magistrate Liu must first investigate with people around Xue. , instead of putting the suspicion on Linglongzhai’s head. Once this matter breaks out, more poisoned people will come out one after another, and the situation will naturally be different.”

After hearing these words, Zhao Jing couldn't help but sigh.If Wang Qi's analysis is true, then Wang Long is really terrifying.For his own selfishness, he did not hesitate to bring so many people to be buried with him.In case the poisoned person is not properly measured, the whole family of the person who bought the snacks may be wiped out.Even though Zhao Jing was used to seeing so many intrigues on the battlefield, and heard so many dirty things from wealthy families, he had never seen such a vicious and insane person.

Zhao Jing took a sneak peek at Wang Qi, and was able to calmly analyze such a poisonous scheme that many people heard about. It should be said that Wang Qi knew Wang Long too well?Or did he think too badly of people?Or, is Wang Qi herself such a person?

"It's just that I don't understand." Wang Qi didn't pay attention to Zhao Jing's thoughtful eyes when he looked at him, he frowned and said: "I have been away from the Wang family for so many years, and I have completely broken with them. There is no contact at all. These years have been peaceful, even if Wang Long wanted to punish me, he would not take such a big risk. What kind of deep hatred is this!"

The news that Wang Qi was blamed and Wang Long was imprisoned was revealed to Wang Long by himself, and Zhao Jing suddenly felt a little guilty.He hurriedly said: "These are just our guesses, and we can't be sure without evidence."

Wang Qi shook her head and said, "I'm used to aloofness in Pingyao County. Apart from Wang Long, I basically don't have any enemies. Although I don't deal with Chen Xiu very much, Chen Xiu won't fight for that little quarrel. Such a great strength to deal with me. Besides, he has evil intentions, but he doesn't have such great courage. "

"What you said makes sense." Zhao Jing didn't know what to say, so he could only nod in agreement.

Wang Qi sneered, and said, "I'm afraid it's still Wang Long. I heard from Catcher Zhang that he was imprisoned for lending usury some time ago. Wang Long and I grew up together and knew him very well. His mind is crooked and Bad, but I also like to use my bad intentions to equate others. I am afraid that I stumbled and thought I was reporting him behind his back, so I suppressed my revenge."

Zhao Jing couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat, and he didn't know whether it was because of guilty conscience or worry.It has to be said that Wang Qi's guess is very close to the truth.Zhao Jing couldn't help admitting that Wang Qi's thoughts were really meticulous, and she was also good at finding flaws from details.He was really afraid to continue chatting with Wang Qi, because he would detect what he did through his own words.

Fortunately, before he was worried for too long, Qi Qing knocked on the door outside and said, "Master, my elder brother and Chang Shun are back."

--------------------

The author has something to say:

The writing of these two chapters is a bit tangled. I am afraid that the foreshadowing is not enough, the explanation is not detailed, and I am afraid that if I say too much, it will be long-winded.In short, I changed it several times back and forth. If I had to update the text today, I really want to think it over again.In short, this chapter is the last chapter of the manuscript. In order not to be naked, I have to work harder in the next two days.Unfortunately, no matter how good you think, you will be defeated by reality and occasional laziness.By the way, recently I have been obsessed with watching classic old World War II movies, which are really good.
