The shopkeepers and clerks of the nearby shops all recognized Shen Yuan and Ji Xun, and when they saw them asking about Penglai Restaurant, they all surrounded them, and you said what you said.

"Two days ago, a woman died of poisoning after eating in your restaurant. After reporting to the official, Inspector Ding brought people to investigate and found that the well water used for cooking in the backyard of your restaurant was poisonous~"

"After the incident, the yamen sealed up all your restaurants, and many people were arrested, including Chef Shen and Dong He's family.

"Inspector Ding said that a gentleman commits the same crime as a commoner when he breaks the law, and the royal family's property should abide by the law, and he has already reported this matter to the capital.

"Also said that this matter is very serious, maybe the world commercial bank will be closed by the royal family."

After hearing this, Shen Yuan's face was extremely ugly. There can be no problem with her spring water, she must have been framed by someone.

As for who is planning behind it, it is unknown, there are too many powers to offend, the prince Wei Yuande, Song Shangshu~~ maybe the queen may be watching from behind.

Therefore, the trouble Tianxia Commercial Bank encountered this time must be a big trouble. After all, not everyone dares to frame the royal family property.

Shen Yuan and Ji Xun got into the carriage after learning about the situation.

"Where are you going?" Shen Yu'an asked Ji Xun. The world's commercial companies were almost out of business, so how could they still have the appetite to eat.

"The yamen jail." Ji Xun said.

"Okay." Shen Yuan nodded, and the two drove the carriage to the yamen prison quickly.

The guard refused to let them in, and was knocked down by Ji Xun a few times, and took the key to open the door.

The prison was dark and damp with a rotten and musty smell, and the torches on the wall flickered on and off. As soon as Shen Yuan and Ji Xun came in, He Jin saw them and hurriedly crawled over from the corner, holding the iron gate with both hands.

"Young master, Da Dong."

"Brother Ji Xun, sister Yu'an." Shen Yong'an also hurriedly crawled over, and shopkeeper Hu and other staff in the restaurant also surrounded him. Everyone's disheveled hair was stained with blood, as if they had been tortured.

"My lord, it's good that you stay at the door, don't come over." Knowing that Ji Xun has a cleanliness habit, He Jin hurriedly stopped him.

"Nothing." Ji Xun said lightly, and walked over as if nothing had happened. He Jin pursed his lips and was surprised at the change of His Royal Highness.

"What's going on?" Shen Yuan and Ji Xun came to the door of the cell, staring at them solemnly.

A restaurant clerk said: "The deceased was a middle-aged woman. I entered the restaurant alone, and I led her upstairs."

The waiter who served the food answered, "It's really abnormal for one person to order more than a dozen dishes."

Shopkeeper Hu also followed suit, "What's more abnormal is that she ate almost all of these dozen dishes, and finally fell to the ground and died suddenly for some reason. The governor will bring people here soon.'
Shen Yongan said: "I was busy in the back kitchen, and the officers and soldiers rushed in and controlled me. After a search, they said that the well water was poisonous. But there are so many guests in the restaurant, all the dishes are made with the same water. They ate How are you all right?"

He Jin also said: "Inspector Ding led people to arrest me, and escorted me to the back kitchen of every restaurant for inspection. In the end, poison was found in the water tanks of every restaurant."
After a pause, he said strangely: "I just watched them put the silver needle for drug testing into the water tank, and watched the silver needle turn black~~ I really don't understand what method they used. To be able to test for poison."

"Is there still water in the jar?" Shen Yuan frowned.

He Jin shook his head helplessly: "It's gone, every family will smash a tank, and all the water will flow out."

Shen Xingwang said angrily: "They wanted to torture us, but it's a pity that everyone held back and no one confessed."

If someone had confessed, Shen Yuan and Ji Xun would have been arrested as soon as they entered Lingzhou City.

"Good job everyone." Ji Xun nodded, "Don't worry, you will be fine, and you will be able to leave soon."

Everyone hurriedly said: "We are fine, please rest assured, Young Master and Da Dong."

"Take this medicinal powder to treat wounds." Shen Yuan handed them two bottles of medicinal powder, "Just sprinkle it on the wound."

After confessing a few words casually, Shen Yuan and Ji found out of the cell.

As soon as they reached the door of the cell, Inspector Ding brought guards to surround them.

Inspector Ding was dressed in an official uniform and hat, and walked in front of Shen Yuan and Ji Xun with a proud expression.

He looked at him contemptuously, and snorted, "Dare to trespass in the sky prison, the Shen Dadong family doesn't think much of me, the governor of Lingzhou, do they? Arrest them.'
Ji Xun blocked Shen Yuan from behind, and shot coldly at Ding Cishi, "As a court official, Ding Cishi must have a reason to arrest people, right?"

"Reason?" Inspector Ding sneered, "Isn't trespassing the prison a reason?"

Ji Xun showed the princess token, "Who said we trespassed in the prison? Open your eyes and see what this is."

"This~~Princess Token?" Ding Cishi was surprised after seeing it, but he quickly returned to normal, looking at Shen Yuyan with a smile and said: "Even though I didn't break into the dungeon~~ But as the big owner of Tianxia Commercial Bank, the restaurant he runs is out of business. Shouldn't the murder case be arrested?"
Shen Yuan defended loudly: "We were framed by others, and the dishes at Penglai Restaurant can never be poisonous."

Ding Inspector Shi snorted: "The evidence is solid and sophistry is useless, I have already reported it to the Ministry of Punishment, and the higher authorities will come to a conclusion soon."

Tianxia Commercial Bank is a royal property, and if it wants to be convicted, it must be reviewed by the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Ji Xun narrowed his eyes.

The Minister of the Ministry of Justice is a princeling, and the prince has not yet arrived in Beijing after leaving Lingzhou City. It is unlikely that he planned this matter.Therefore, if the mastermind behind this matter is not the queen, it must be Zhou Chenxiang!
If they want to make the world's commercial firms disappear, I'm afraid the emperor will not be able to stop them!
"This matter has not been clarified yet, so don't jump to any conclusions. You must investigate clearly before discussing it." Ji Xun held the princess token in his hand, and the momentum was so strong that Ding Cishi involuntarily lowered his head.

Inspector Dante immediately came back to his senses, and said angrily, "Trying to meddle in the affairs of the yamen with just a piece of princess token? I'm afraid it's against the rules."

"Is it against the rules?" Ji Xun looked at Ding Cishi coldly.

Inspector Ding's tone was cold and firm: "Of course it's against the rules. Even if Her Royal Highness is here, she has no right to interfere in the government affairs."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Shen Yuan, "As the owner of the Tianxia Commercial Firm, Mr. Shen must not stay out of the incident of a murder case in the restaurant. When the approval in the capital is approved, he will also bring you to justice. I will let you go today and let them Walk."

The corner of Ji Xun's lips twitched, and he couldn't help but reach into his inner pocket and hold the tiger talisman.

Shen Yuan quickly held his hand, shook his head slightly at him, it would not be wise to reveal his identity in Lingzhou, where the emperor is far away.

Ji Xun withdrew his hand.

After leaving the yamen, Ji Xun couldn't bear it anymore and said, "This matter must have been instigated by the empress or Zhou Chenxiang behind the scenes. They must have seen the business improvement of the world's commercial firms and began to be afraid."

Shen Yuan nodded in agreement, and didn't know what to say. He knew early on that it was easy to do a good job in business, but it was too difficult when it came to intrigue.
