"let me go!
"Li Xiao, don't think I don't know, this is clearly a trick you played!"
Chang Sun Chong struggled and yelled, but all the imperial guards didn't care at all.
Just like that, Chang Sun Chong was brought in.
Only then did Li Xiao look at Zhao Heng who was beside him, and said calmly: "Captain Zhao, what's the matter, let's go in and talk about it."
"This... ok!"
Zhao Heng hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
……
Inside the Lantian Restaurant.
Li Xiao sat down and ordered: "Show Catcher Zhao a seat."
The guard moved the chair, and Zhao Heng sat down with a worried face.
"This king already knows about this matter, and I can tell you directly that someone set the blame on me, not this king." Li Xiao said flatly.
"Your Highness!"
Zhao Heng clasped his fists and said: "Everything needs evidence. Even if the subordinates believe His Highness, how can the people believe it? Those who died unjustly must have an explanation."
"How many people died?" Li Xiao asked with a frown.
"Eight lives have been experienced by Wu Zuo, and they were indeed caused by poisoning due to the use of soap."
"Are you sure you bought it from me?"
"When the deceased came to buy soap, many people saw it. This is indeed true."
Li Xiao frowned slightly: "I bought it from this king, and then I was tampered with. This is also unknown. It is impossible for this king to know everything!"
"It's not easy to check, because it's been a few days since I bought it." Zhao Heng frowned.
"My king has sold so many soaps, why is it okay for others to use them?"
"It must have been tampered with after it was sold, deliberately planted and framed for this king."
"Your Highness..."
After Li Xiao finished speaking, he saw a guard coming in a hurry, he hesitated to speak.
"please wait a moment."
Li Xiao gave Zhao Heng an order, and then followed the guards to the next room.
"what's up?"
"Your Highness, after inspection, poisonous powder was indeed added to the leftover soap sold in the restaurant yesterday. This kind of poisonous powder is very special, colorless and odorless, and the servants did not find it." The guard said with a serious expression.
"What?!" Li Xiao was slightly surprised.
He didn't expect that there was something wrong with the soap in his store.
Of course, it is impossible for his Lantian Villa production line to have problems.
Then it could only be that someone sneaked into the drug store under the restaurant.
But the restaurant is guarded by his guards, so how could someone sneak in without realizing it?
There is only one answer.
The incoming man was very skilled in martial arts, even with ten imperial guards guarding him, he could calmly poison and leave without making a sound.
Thinking of this, a figure suddenly appeared in Li Xiao's mind.
Uncle Yun who injured his guard just now.
With this person's strength, maybe it is really possible.
At this point, Li Xiao suddenly became enlightened, and everything became clear.
In all likelihood, the accident was caused by the eldest grandson's family.
"Your Highness, what should we do now?" the guard asked.
"Block the news, this matter must not be spread."
"Yes!"
"Take me to see."
……
Not long after, Li Xiao came to the place where the soap was stored.
His soaps are packed piece by piece in high-quality wooden boxes.
Basically, servants will not open the box.
Only when you take it out for sale, will you take a look at it.
But it's just a glance, so it's hard to find out that someone has been poisoned.
Li Xiao opened the soap box, scratched a little skin off the surface of the soap with a dagger, and smelled it.
"Your Highness!"
The guards suddenly tensed up.
"fine."
Li Xiao raised his hand, his eyes thoughtful.
It is indeed poisonous, and it is a strongly acidic poisonous powder.
Once human skin is exposed to too much, a chemical reaction will occur, which in turn will lead to skin ulceration.
And this poison is mixed with another neurotoxin, which will enter the blood after the skin is festered.
This is the root cause of death.
"This poison..."
Suddenly, Li Xiao frowned.
He suddenly had a familiar feeling.
correct!
He immediately remembered that this poison was similar to the one he was given before.
All damage the nerves.
It's just that this kind of poison has a strong effect and can cause death in a short time.
"Is it the same medicine?"
Li Xiao was very puzzled.
The previous poison was from the proprietress of Fengfenglou.
But the proprietress was arrested by him, and she is still in prison and has not been released.
Is there any connection?
Li Xiao didn't know.
I'm afraid I have to ask the proprietress.
After thinking for a long time, Li Xiao had no idea, so he returned to the front hall.
"Zhao Butou, you can go back and report to the lord, and the king will give him an explanation within three days." Li Xiao said expressionlessly.
"Subordinates obey!"
Zhao Heng immediately cupped his fists.
After Zhao Heng led the people away, Cheng Chumo said angrily, "Where's that kid, Changsun Chong? I'm going to beat him up!"
"Your Highness, I've been knocked out in the firewood room in the backyard." The guard said immediately when he saw Li Xiao's eyes.
Li Xiao nodded: "Go, go meet him for a while."
Chapter 146: Give Chang Sun Chong some "welfare"
"I am coming too!"
Cheng Chumo was about to steal the guy from the side.
But when I moved the table and picked up the chair, it felt uncomfortable, so I had no choice but to put it down.
Then, Li Xiao led a group of people to the woodshed in the backyard.
At this time, Chang Sun Chong was unconscious.
"Tie up!"
Cheng Chumo shouted again and again.
In his hand, he found a fire stick from nowhere, which was covered with carbon ash.
Looking at this posture, Li Xiao guessed that Chang Sun Chong had suffered a lot.
Then he motioned to the guards next to him to tie Changsun Chong up to Wuhuada and lay him flat on the ground.
"Water!" Cheng Chumo shouted again.
He couldn't deal with Chang Sun Chong before, and he suffered all kinds of humiliation.
At this moment, it is natural to have revenge for revenge, and revenge for injustice.
When the guards brought water, they were about to wake up Chang Sun Chong.
"give me!"
Cheng Chumo stretched out one hand, his tone unquestionable.
At this moment, Cheng Chumo seemed to have entered a bright moment, and his whole person looked extremely imposing.
The guard didn't think much, and handed the basin to Cheng Chumo.
Cheng Chumo clasped the rim of the basin with one hand, and was about to pin it on Changsun Chong's head.
He wants to use the most violent force to splash water on Changsun Chong's face fiercely to vent his hatred!
However, everyone only saw the sink in Cheng Chumo's hand.
"Bang" sound.
The basin fell, and the water spilled all over the floor.
Cheng Chumo: "..."
He was stunned.
It was silent.
There was an awkward atmosphere in the air.
"Come again!"
After a long silence, Cheng Chumo raised his hand and shouted again.
Guards look at me, I look at you, extremely speechless.
"Ugh……"
Li Xiao rested his forehead and sighed.
Sure enough, the fat man was still the same fat man.
"Step aside!"
After finishing speaking, Li Xiao came to Chang Sun Chong.
Immediately afterwards, he raised his hand and slapped Changsun Chong hard on the face.
"Snapped!"
The crisp sound made the corner of Cheng Chumo's mouth twitch.
