Chapter 103 Banquet Disturbance(1/2)
Chapter 103 Banquet Troubles
Not long after, the door was opened again, and a middle-aged scribe walked in.
After this person came in, everyone in the venue stopped what they were doing and looked towards the door.
"Lord Tong San!"
Afterwards, everyone stood up and saluted the middle-aged scribe.
"Haha, please take a seat, everyone. Don't be too formal. Just treat this banquet as a meal between friends." Wen Qingyang waved his hand with a smile, walked to the upper seat, and sat down.
After hearing his words, everyone nodded and sat down.
"When I took office, due to secular affairs, I never visited you, and I felt guilty. I invite you here this time because I want to get to know you." Wen Qingyang said to everyone with a smile.
When everyone heard this, they all showed kind smiles.
"Also, I encountered a problem when I took office. I hope you can help me. The person who helps me solve the case the most will be recommended by me to be the leader. I also asked a hundred households to vouch for this matter.
"Wen Qingyang's expression calmed down slightly and he said with a smile.
"Yeah." Chen Ming responded boredly, pinched a peanut in his hand, crushed the peanut shell, shook his hand, and threw the peanut kernel into his mouth.
After hearing his words, everyone in the audience couldn't help but smile.
They naturally knew about this matter. Moreover, many of them came here because of this matter.
Otherwise, how could they come here with just one judge?
You know, Qamdo Prefecture is one of the richest cities in the south of the Yangtze River. As a family born and raised here, some of their members take the merit test every year.
Some families even have officials from the capital standing behind them.
With this kind of confidence, some people will naturally not take a high-ranking general judge seriously.
"Lord Tongpan, I think this matter is simple!" At this moment, a voice came immediately.
Everyone looked around and saw a young man in rich clothes.
Immediately, Chu Zheng learned this person's name from the whispers of the people around him.
This man, named Qi Ming, is the son of the Qi family.
The Qijia is a merchant family in Qamdo Prefecture. It has opened many alchemy pavilions in various places in Qamdo Prefecture.
There are even several alchemists in his family, and he has connections with many alchemists.
In Qamdo Prefecture, it is considered a very famous family.
Qi Ming held a fan in his hand and said with a smile: "The key to this case is that there is no evidence. There is a foreigner beside me who knows the Mysterious Heart Sutra. As long as he uses the Mysterious Heart Sutra on Li Ming, he can open it."
It’s not difficult to obtain evidence from his mouth.”
As Qi Ming finished speaking, people in the venue suddenly started talking, as if they were going to explode.
When Chu Zheng heard this, his brows furrowed tightly.
This Heart Sutra, it sounds like it is not a serious exercise. If it is used, it may cause some harm to Li Ming.
Thinking of this, he was ready to speak.
"No!" But just when Chu was about to speak, a loud shout came.
Chu Zheng looked around and saw a middle-aged man wearing a large cloak.
The middle-aged man had cold eyes and an extremely terrifying aura.
"It's the Broken Gate Sword Golden Bell." Someone recognized the middle-aged man.
"I heard that he is approaching the seventh level."
"When he has reached this level, he still wants to fight for beautiful women? Aren't he afraid of being ridiculed by people in the world?"
"..."
For a moment, everyone started talking about the golden bell.
At the same time, they all looked at Jin Zhong, wanting to see what he was going to say.
"Oh." Qi Ming's eyes were slightly cold, "I don't know why Mr. Jin thinks it's not possible."
Jin Zhong raised his head, looked at Qi Ming with a pair of tiger eyes, and snorted: "I have heard of this Confused Heart Sutra in the world. It is a secret technique that confuses people. You said this secret technique can make those people
I believe what Li Ming told me. But, who can be sure that the stranger next to you will not lie?
What if he confuses Li Ming and deliberately makes Li Ming admit to the poisoning? So what? Is this called solving a case? If so, who in this lobby cannot be the murderer? "
After hearing his words, the expressions of everyone present changed a bit, and they couldn't help but look at Qi Ming with a little more scrutiny.
"You are such a mouthful!" When Qi Ming heard this, his face suddenly turned red and he shouted angrily, "My Qi family is from a famous family in Qamdo Prefecture, how could I do such a thing!"
When Jin Zhong heard this, he just sneered, "People's hearts are separated from each other, who knows what you are thinking."
"You!" When Qi Ming heard what he said, he was furious and seemed ready to fight.
"Okay." At this moment, Wen Qingyang's voice came from above.
Everyone looked at Wen Qingyang, wanting to see what the person hosting the banquet was going to say.
"The method given by Mr. Qi is quite effective, but the case should not be solved. In any case, if you want to solve the case, you should rely on the truth and evidence, not other means." Wen Qingyang shook his head and said.
Seeing him say this, Qi Ming's face turned even darker.
"Let me tell you the details of this case." Wen Qingyang looked at everyone and said: "This case happened a few days ago. At that time, Zhang Shan brought banana leaves home and asked his wife to make soup and medicine to treat his son.
Wind and cold.
After that, he went to a gambling house to gamble. A few hours later, a neighbor found Zhang Shan and told him that something happened at home.
When Zhang Shan returned home, he found that his wife and children were dead, so he immediately reported it to the official.
Afterwards, we inspected the body and found that the silver needle pierced into his throat was dark, so we concluded that the wife and son had been poisoned by arsenic."
After hearing his words, one person hesitated for a moment and asked: "Since it is Zhang Shan's son who is sick, why did his wife die?"
"When you were given medicine when you were a child, did your mother drink your medicine?" One person sneered.
After hearing his words, everyone was stunned, and then nodded.
When they were young, when they didn't want to take medicine, their mother would often take the medicine herself, saying it wasn't bitter, and then lure them into taking it.
Everyone's faces couldn't help showing complicated expressions.
"It shouldn't be related to this." At this moment, a voice suddenly came.
Hearing this voice, everyone couldn't help but look.
Immediately, they saw a young man wearing ordinary clothes standing up.
Obviously, it was this young man who spoke just now.
When everyone saw his clothes that were incompatible with this place and his somewhat green face, they couldn't help but frowned and felt unhappy in their hearts.
Is this young man here to cause trouble?
They didn't believe that this young man could come up with any enlightening insights.
Chu Zheng turned a blind eye to the looks of these people and just said calmly: "That Zhang Shan is a compulsive gambler, and there must be no food left at home. In this situation, how could his wife throw away the medicine casually?
?”
I think that because his wife was reluctant to part with the medicine for fear of wasting it, she ate the remaining medicine as food and was poisoned.
He only remembered this matter from the last time Zhang Shan asked him for chicken.
How could the other party do such wasteful things when they are so poor?
Hearing Chu Zheng's words, many people in the venue felt incredible.
As the saying goes, medicine is only three parts poisonous. How could someone take medicine as a meal? Are they going to die?
However, some people who were born into poverty nodded slightly and agreed with this point of view.
Not to mention medicine, even tree bark and poisonous wild vegetables were eaten when they were hungry as children.
As long as you can survive.
Wen Changqing looked at Chu Zheng in surprise, and then saw Xu Rong next to him, and suddenly showed a thoughtful expression.
Chen Ming looked at Chu Zheng and narrowed his eyes.
He didn't know why, but he always felt that this young man looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.
And he didn't think this was an illusion.
As a beauty groom, he has already had the ability to remember people. If he is serious about remembering people, he will definitely remember them at the first sight.
This young man should be someone he had met before but didn't remember seriously.
"What you said about this matter makes some sense, but it has nothing to do with solving the case. What we are looking for now is the person who poisoned us." Qi Ming saw that Chu Zheng's words were confused by the people here.
Agreed, couldn't help but choked.
"Master Qi is right." Chu Zheng nodded, sat down, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of beef tongue and put it into the bowl.
To be continued...
