Chapter 67 Fried thumb (2)
Yesterday was the day that troupe leader Huang died, and it was also the day after he went to sing an opera at the Prince's Mansion in Huaishan County.
Could this be a coincidence?
"Anyway, I don't really believe it." Liu Yuan muttered, "Then Team Leader Huang must have discovered Fuzi's secret."
Speaking of "Fuzi", Liu Yuan said again: "Oh, by the way, although Fuzi doesn't know how to read, he can write a word."
As Liu Yuan spoke, he swiped his fingers in the void a few times.
Because the strokes were too fast, Bai Zhu on the side couldn't see clearly, so he hurriedly asked, "What are you writing?"
Liu Yuan glanced at him, and when he was about to speak, he heard Lin Fei say: "Bull!"
Liu Yuan nodded immediately when he heard the words: "Did Lin Shaoqing see clearly? It's just a word for 'ox'!" He said, "I heard from the little officials at the post station that it seems to be the word on the swaddle wrapped in Fuzi, so there will be this word for 'ox' Words." Liu Yuan said, took out an oiled paper bag, and then opened the oiled paper bag in front of the two of them.
A sour smell immediately filled the air.
Bai Zhu couldn't help muttering "My God", and subconsciously took two steps back.
Liu Yuan was not much better, and said to the two, "I found it in the acid water. I was afraid that there might be some clues from above, and I didn't dare to let people wash it, so I came to ask Lin Shaoqing first."
Lin Fei looked at the discolored swaddle, was silent for a moment, and said, "You can take it to the starch first."
After being soaked in this way, it is useless to have any clues.
Liu Yuan let out an "oh", then hurriedly wrapped the baby in oiled paper.
"Fuzi's life experience, for so many years, even the station officials who have been in contact with him on a daily basis have not known about it, how did Captain Huang know?" Bai Zhu said, "And he suddenly set up a stage for Fuzi, I always think it is a coincidence. What do you know next?"
"So, I specifically checked what troupe leader Zha Huang did before setting up the stage for Fuzi," Bai Zhu said, "He doesn't have any hobbies other than singing opera and gambling. I asked the troupe, It is said that Team Leader Huang has not been to any other places in those days."
"Those theater fans who came to the opera troupe to watch the opera, so many days have passed, and the people in those theater troupes can't remember. But the troupe master Huang was called out to sing, there are several." Bai Zhu handed over the list he found. Lin Fei.
Liu Yuan glanced at it, raised his eyebrows, and muttered, "There is no Huaishan County Palace."
He just came back from singing at the Huaishan County Prince’s Mansion the day before, and died the next day. It would be strange to say that he didn’t doubt the Huaishan County Prince’s Mansion.
But the name of Huaishan County Prince's Mansion is not on the list.
Lin Fei glanced at the names on the list, pressed the paper under the inkstone, then looked up at the two of them, and said, "Check something for me."
…
…
After eating the Korean food, Wen Mingtang took A Bing and the glutinous rice **** to the street.
Ji Caimai is generous and talkative, as long as the food is delicious and the price of the ingredients is not expensive, you can buy it.
So Wen Mingtang took the two of them out of Dali Temple after finishing the meal.
The sun was a little hot, so the three of them first found a Sushan shop, and one of them dug a bowl of Sushan filled with milk. They were going to buy ingredients after eating Sushan.
While chatting nonchalantly about the public kitchen, several people walked in.
The three of them subconsciously stopped their chatting, and looked over at the group of people who had come: several gorgeously dressed maidservants were surrounding a woman in the center who was wearing a water-red and green-patterned peony skirt. She was holding a gilt flower fan in her hand. The fingers holding the fan handle were as slender as green onions, and the nails were carefully decorated with colorful paintings. Just standing there, she had an indescribably graceful style.
Tang Yuan opened her mouth wide and couldn't help muttering: "Beauty!"
The servant girl heard the voice, glanced here, saw the three of Wen Mingtang, immediately sneered, then turned her head again, and called "Miss" to the woman wearing a hat to cover her face.
The woman gave a soft "hmm", and one of the maidservants walked up to the boss who sold the crisps, handed over a gold-plated cup, and said, "Here's a slice of crisps, poured with milk."
The boss was also surprised by the beauty in the costume, and when he came back to his senses, he hurriedly made a piece of crispy rice and handed it over.
Looking at the milk that was about to overflow from the crispy mountain, Tangyuan subconsciously glanced at the crispy mountain that was only poured into her bowl, and flattened her mouth: It's better for Master Wen, the best food for her is when she eats. Hearty.
The maid took over the milk crisp mountain, the woman turned around, and a group of people surrounded the woman and walked out. The moment she was about to go out, the charming beauty suddenly turned her head.
Although she couldn't see Mi Lili's beautiful face through Mi Li, but for some reason, Wen Mingtang still had the feeling that the beauty was looking at her.
Digging a spoonful of Sushan, looking at the boss who was still dazed in place, Wen Mingtang looked at the Sushan shop again, and then continued to dig up the Sushan in the bowl.
When returning to Dali Temple after lunch in a small restaurant outside, I saw Ji Caimaigen standing among the mess all over the floor, but instead of showing any anger on his face, there was an inexplicable joy on his face.
Wen Mingtang looked at Ji Caimai, who was waving at her with a happy face, and walked over.
Ji Caimai waved his big hand and said, "You cook the evening food for the past few days!"
Wen Mingtang was stunned
After listening to the reason given by Ji Caimai, I finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that Ji Caimai went to other yamen for a few days, and learned that the ingredients received by other yamen were normal, but she knew something was wrong if it was not normal here.
The house office suddenly stared at a girl and started to make trouble. Apart from Wen Mingtang's background, Ji Caimai couldn't think of any other reason. But those people didn't like Wen Mingtang just because of the Wen family's affairs, so they didn't find someone to keep an eye on whether Wen Mingtang left the palace.
Although he was a buyer, he came from Dali Temple after all. After thinking about it, he guessed that someone purposely went to inform him. In this way, Master Sun and Master Wang became the primary suspects.
"I've been staring at these two **** for the past few days! Given so many ingredients, two dishes of tomato scrambled eggs and cucumber fried meat appeared in two consecutive days, so I came forward and warned them. If you go on like this, leave carefully!" Ji Caimai couldn't help but sneered when she said this, "Guess what? After less than two hours, the housekeeper who was full and had nothing to do suddenly came The news said that the previous rules are invalidated, and the matter of the public kitchen is still under our control, how can there be such a coincidence?"
"Just now, I was pointing at those two people's noses and reprimanding them for making troubles for you. Out of the right mind, a Cuju suddenly flew over, with a little force, and hurt Master Wang's hand," Ji said. Cai Mai said, "So he can't make evening food, you can make evening food!"
The strength of Cuju that can hurt people's hands is not "slightly" strong! Wen Mingtang looked at Ji Caimai, and couldn't help but ask, "Which kicked the Cuju?"
Ji Caimai said: "You should know Li Yuan, the little prince of the Pingxi County Prince's Mansion. He came late today. He didn't eat the morning food you cooked. He lost his temper before leaving. Before he left, he wanted to come over to eat dinner. Food!"
Wen Mingtang heard the words, and said silently: "...So, that Cuju kick is probably..."
"It must have been unintentional." Ji Caimai interrupted her, and cursed, "Things that bully the weak and fear the hard!" Then said, "Wang Junshan himself said that the Xiaojun Wang was unintentional."
