Chapter 216 Toxic
The cook remembered that the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion was very scheming, and frowned slightly as she listened to her explanation: "The eldest young master won't be back until tonight."
"That's it."
Qin Xiaoyun nodded: "Then I'll wait for him in the front hall later. I'm sorry to bother you."
After that, he was about to leave, but he stopped after not taking two steps and asked: "By the way, can I ask what kind of soup this is? It tastes really delicious."
This is Chu Changying's favorite soup. Every family in the border area can make it, but the cooks in Kyoto can't make it.
Seeing that she seemed to really like it, the cook gave a brief introduction. Qin Xiaoyun made a serious look and took note of it. After saying goodbye, she quickly returned to her yard.
She leaned on the door panel and patted her chest, letting out a long sigh of relief. She was really in danger just now and almost exposed her secret.
However, today's trip had been thrilling, and she really didn't want to take any more risks if the poisoning continued in the future.
There must be a way.
At dinner time, Chu Changying took Qin Zhongwan to the Songzhu Courtyard to have dinner together.
Because of Qinglian's incident, Qin Zhongwan has been haggard for the past two days.
"I asked Mother Lin to stew the soup. It tastes very good. You must try it."
Chu Changying held her hand and said: "This is the specialty of our border. The chefs in Kyoto will never be able to make it."
Qin Zhongwan thanked her for her kindness and did not refuse.
Arriving at Songzhuyuan, he smelled a scent as soon as he entered the dining room. Qin Zhongwan looked at Chu Changying with a little more expectation in his eyes.
"This soup smells so good? What kind of soup is it?"
Seeing the cook Lin Ma bring the soup cup, Qin Zhongwan immediately opened it and smelled it, feeling that his taste buds were awakened all of a sudden.
"It's salsa and black chicken soup."
Maybe it was because Chu Changying had a good relationship with Qin Zhongwan, so Lin's mother also smiled at her: "Sand bamboo shoots are a specialty of the Border Pass, and they taste delicious when used to make soup. By the way, in the afternoon, Miss Qin also smiled at her because of I asked about Xiang Xiang.”
Lin's mother's unintentional words sounded the alarm for Qin Zhongwan, and her expression became serious: "Qin Xiaoyun has been here?"
Mother Lin was stunned for a moment, then nodded and replied: "Yes, she said she was attracted to the kitchen by the smell and asked me how to make this soup."
Qin Zhongwan frowned: "She just asked how to cook the soup, and nothing else?"
"Wan'er, do you think there's something wrong with her?"
Chu Changying was about to serve her soup. Hearing this, he put down the things in his hands and looked at Mother Lin: "Mother Lin, did you see any other movements on her part?"
Lin’s mother was also someone who had followed Chu Xiao on the battlefield, so she immediately understood what the two meant, and recalled: “I’m not sure, I couldn’t see her move when I found out, and her behavior was quite natural. "
Chu Changying knew how good Qin Xiaoyun was at pretending, so she immediately looked at Qin Zhongwan: "Wan'er, what do you think?"
Qin Zhongwan thought for a moment and said, "I have a guess that she may have poisoned you. I need to test these dishes."
"You come."
Chu Changying stood up, and Lin's mother also looked a little nervous.
Qin Zhongwan took out a silver needle and dipped it into the soup. After a while, the silver needle was covered with a layer of black.
"It's poisonous! She really poisoned it!"
Chu Changying exclaimed, her face filled with anger: "What a Qin Xiaoyun, I have no enmity with her? Why did you poison me?"
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm looking at other things."
Qin Zhongwan comforted her and then checked other dishes. The final result showed that only the soup was poisoned by her.
Qin Zhongwan asked Mother Lin when she came over, guessing that she could only get into the soup because other dishes had not been cooked yet.
"I'm sorry, miss, it was my subordinate who neglected his duty!"
Mother Lin looked at the black color on the silver needle, and her face turned green with anger.
If Miss Qin hadn't come to have dinner with her today, she would have drank the poisonous soup.
"Mother Lin, it's not your fault."
Chu Changying's face didn't look good either. This Qin Xiaoyun was really capable of being a monster. It wasn't enough to torment Qin Zhongwan, but now he was targeting her again?
"Wan'er, can you tell what kind of poison this is?"
Chu Changying clenched her fists tightly and looked at Qin Zhongwan.
"I need to look into it some more."
Qin Zhongwan shook her head. The poison had already melted into the soup. She needed to take it back and do some experiments to be sure.
"Qin Xiaoyun is still at home, right? I'll go find her and ask her what's wrong with thinking about harming people every day!"
Chu Changying was impatient. After confirming that it was Qin Xiaoyun who poisoned her, he went to find her for an explanation.
"Sister-in-law, wait."
Qin Zhongwan stopped the person: "There must be someone else behind this matter. If you ask her now, she won't tell the truth."
"Is that right?"
Chu Changying thought the problem was relatively simple, but she believed in Qin Zhongwan.
This table of food was inedible, so Lin Ma cooked a new meal for the two of them. After eating, they returned to Xinwan Courtyard and Qin Zhongwan had something to say to Chu Changying.
The study room in Qin Zhongwan's yard was doubled by her, and the other part was used as a pharmacy. She brought back the poisonous soup and fiddled with it for about a quarter of an hour to determine what kind of poison was in it.
"It's Dian Shancui, a chronic poison. Long-term use will slowly consume your vitality and make your body weak, as if you have a serious illness. Moreover, the toxins accumulate in the body for a long time, and ordinary doctors can't detect it."
