Chapter 575 The Poisoning Incident

Five days later, there was still one day left before the food festival. On this day, everyone from the east and west kitchens were called together.A large number of rabbit guards were sent from the palace to surround everyone in the courtyard.The people leading the team are the eldest prince Yuekun, the ninth prince Yueyun and Yueyun's friend Jin Jue.

"Earlier, a batch of fairy wine was found to be highly poisonous. Today, I specially ordered my father to come here to investigate this matter." Looking at the crowd, the eldest prince Yue Kun said in a cold voice.Although they are brothers, Yuekun is very cold from appearance to temperament, and his personality is much different from the warm, talkative, familiar foodie Yueyun.

"The immortal wine is brewed by the east and west kitchens. After the brewing is finished, the altar will be sealed and handed over to Chef Lan for safekeeping. After that, our east kitchen will not interfere with the immortal wine anymore." After thinking about it, Wang Tianshu Say so.

"Wang Xianyou, what do you mean by that? When the wine was brewed, everyone brewed it together, and it wasn't made by the people in the imperial dining room? You said that now, isn't it clear and then shirk responsibility? What’s more, your East Kitchen got a newcomer two months ago!” Having said this, Lande glanced at Bai Yu and Chu Tianxing meaningfully.

"Chef Lan, Fang Hao and Chu Feng were sent by the Ninth Prince. What do you mean by mentioning them now? Are you referring to Sang and scolding Huai?" Wang Tianshu said with a downcast face.

"Wang Tianshu, you..."

"Okay, stop arguing, what do the two chefs look like?" Looking at the two, the eldest prince said coldly.

Hearing this, both Wang Tianshu and Rand kept their mouths shut, and neither of them argued any more.

"Xianjiu was poisoned. As a fairy chef, no one wants to see this kind of thing. But, Senior Lan suddenly mentioned me and my partner, isn't it unreasonable? What happened to the newcomers? Could it be that we came late Is it the original sin? Chef Lan has any evidence to prove that my partner and I poisoned this poison, and you can show the evidence." Speaking of this, Bai Yu looked at Lande coldly.

"Fang Hao, have you ever talked to the chef like this? I doubt what's wrong with you. I suspect that you are also well-founded. First, you and your partner are newcomers and your identities are unknown. Second, you and your partner are obviously Eighth-level monks, but you came here to do handyman's work and only earn five hundred fairy crystals a month. Isn't that suspicious? And third, when you were working in the East Kitchen, you often came in early and left late. You came earlier than others, left later than others, you have time to poison." Looking at Bai Yu commandingly, Rand listed these three doubts.

"You're talking nonsense, Fang Hao couldn't have poisoned him." Staring at Rand, Yue Yun immediately defended his good friend.

"Ninth Prince, you can't favor the other party just because he is your friend. This is a serious matter. Thirty thousand catties of immortal wine have been poisoned. Tomorrow is the food festival. His Majesty is already furious about this matter. If We can’t find the murderer today, and we can’t afford it.” Speaking of this matter, Rand was also very depressed, this kind of thing had never happened in food festivals in previous years, why is it so unlucky this year, such a thing happened? What about things?

Hearing this, the eldest prince looked at his younger brother. "Old Jiu, don't interfere with this matter. Let me handle it."

After glancing at Rand, Yue Yun looked at her elder brother again, with a helpless expression on her face. "Brother, I have known Fang Hao and Chu Feng for 50 years, it is impossible for them to poison."

"Okay, I'll take care of this matter." Saying that, the eldest prince glanced at Jin Jue who was standing beside Yue Yun.

"Come on, come and rest for a while." Saying this, Jin Jue pulled his wife aside.

Turning his head, the eldest prince looked at Bai Yu. "Fang Hao, about the three suspicions mentioned by Chef Lan just now. Do you have any excuses?"

"Prince, first, what I want to say is that my partner and I are casual cultivators of the human race. When we met the Ninth Prince for the first time, we have already disclosed our identities. We are not some unknown people. Second, I I came to the food festival at the invitation of the Ninth Prince. I came here to learn cooking skills and understand the ingredients of the rabbit clan, not for the five hundred fairy crystals. Third, I came early to prepare Dishes. I left late to tidy up the cabinets. Before, Chef Wang made the classic gourmet sesame soft fruit of the rabbit family. To make this dish, you need to take the core of the soft fruit to make it. The taste is the best. A soft fruit has It weighs 25 jin. After removing the peel, there are [-] jin of pulp, all of which can be eaten. And we only take [-] jin of fruit core for cooking, and the remaining [-] jin of fruit are discarded. I I feel that it is a pity that those pulps are discarded. Therefore, every day when I leave very late, I will clean up the discarded pulps and take them back to make wine."

Hearing Bai Yu's explanation, the eldest prince nodded. "So, you want to say that you left late to get the leftover scraps in the kitchen?"

"Yes, Eldest Prince." Nodding his head, Bai Yu said yes.

Hearing this, everyone looked contemptuous.

"The soft fruit is only a few hundred spirit stones. You even have to pick up the leftover pulp, Fang Hao, you really know how to live!" Looking at Bai Yu contemptuously, Rand sneered.Not only Rand, but other chefs also looked contemptuous.He almost scolded Bai Yu for being a poor ghost.

"Chef Lan has won the award. I have just been promoted to the eighth level, and I am poor. It is a great thing for me to be able to pick up leftovers in the kitchen." Not paying attention to the ridicule on the other party's face, Bai Yu Say so.

"I know about this. At the beginning, Fang Hao asked me. I said, I don't want those leftovers, and I will take them to the farm to feed the horned pigs and dragon cattle in the farm. Fang Hao said it was a pity, and wanted to If he wanted those scraps to be taken back to make wine, I agreed to him. So, after he got off work every day, he would take away the pulp and leave the peel." Looking at Bai Yu, Wang Tianshu told the truth.

Hearing Wang Tianshu's words, the eldest prince nodded. "If that's the case, then Fang Hao and Chu Feng don't have any doubts. How about this, I won't waste the time of the chefs. I have a lie detector stone here. Starting from the two chefs, everyone will test it one by one. Go!" Saying this, the eldest prince took out a blue stone.

Looking at the blue, irregular fist-sized stone in the opponent's hand, Chu Tianxing couldn't help raising his eyebrows.Lie detector stone?This thing has been mentioned in the forest of stone steles, but even in the fairy world, this thing is extremely rare.It is a rare thing.

Seeing the eldest prince take out the lie detector stone, Chu Tianxing noticed that some of the immortal chefs obviously looked wrong.And I don't know if it's a coincidence, or just a coincidence, there is a fairy chef with a flustered expression, who is actually one of the three chefs who wanted to challenge Bai Yu before.

After some testing.An eighth-level and three seventh-level chefs, as well as five handymen immediately surfaced.

Looking at the nine people who were tested, the eldest prince raised the corners of his mouth coldly.His eyes fell on the five handymen. "You are all monks of the Rabbit Clan, but you dare to destroy the food festival of my Rabbit Clan and poison the immortal wine. Do you know what kind of crime this is?"

"The eldest prince, spare your life, the eldest prince, spare your life, it's not us, it's not us!" After saying that, the five people immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Seeing the five people kneeling on the ground with pale faces and shaking as if they were sifting chaff, the eldest prince sneered. "This is the crime of exterminating the nine clans, which is equivalent to treason!"

"No, no, the eldest prince, spare your life, the eldest prince, spare your life!"

"It's not us, Chef Li instructed us."

"Yes, Chef Zhang instructed us."

"Chef Bai instructed us."

"Don't talk nonsense here, who ordered you?"

Seeing the nine people biting each other together, the eldest prince snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hand, put the nine people into a cage.He turned to look at the two chefs. "Chef Lan, Chef Wang, this matter has been thoroughly investigated by the palace. The problem now is that there is a shortage of immortal wine. Let's all brew immortal wine together!"

Hearing this, the faces of the two chefs were very ugly.

"Prince, this immortal wine is different from other dishes. It cannot be brewed in a day. It needs to be fermented for a period of time. It will take 20 days at the fastest!" Speaking of this, Lande was very excited. depressed.

"Yes, eldest prince, it will take 20 days at the earliest!" Nodding, Wang Tianshu said the same.

"20 days? The food festival is only one month long. When you brew wine, won't the food festival be over?" Speaking of this, the eldest prince could not help but narrow his eyes, and looked at the two of them coldly.

"This..." Feeling the displeasure of the eldest prince, the two chefs also had a headache.

"Two chefs, it is because of your lax supervision that the immortal wine was poisoned this time, and you should be fully responsible for it. I will give you one day for the missing [-] catties of immortal wine. Find a way!" After speaking, the eldest prince walked away with other guards.

Seeing that the eldest prince and his guards had left, Yue Yun immediately walked over. "Fang Hao, I'm sorry for making you wronged."

"It's okay, those who clean themselves up. I'm not afraid of being wronged for things I haven't done." Bai Yu didn't care about this.

"Fang Hao, you collected a lot of leftovers from the kitchen to make immortal wine, how much immortal wine do you have?" Looking at Bai Yu, Wang Tianshu asked.

Hearing this, Bai Yu was stunned. "Me? I have brewed almost [-] catties of fairy wine." Originally, he wanted to sell some, but Tian Xing knew that he liked these wines, so he wouldn't let him sell them, and let him keep them for himself to drink. Therefore, he did not sell it.

"Then, take out your wine, how about Chef Lan and I buy you [-] catties of wine at the market price?"

"This..." Hearing this, Bai Yu frowned, a little unhappy.He still wants to keep this batch of wine for himself to drink!
