Chapter 39
Zhao Yanran didn't think of this in her panic, but at this moment, after being reminded by He Shi, she also came to her senses, and hurriedly cried: "Yes, grandma, some servant buried this thing secretly! If it was really made by granddaughter, granddaughter You wouldn't be so stupid as to bury poison in your own yard and wait for someone to catch it!"

A sneer flashed across Zhao Yuanxiang's lowered eyes, and then he raised his head with a sincere face: "Grandma, I also believe that the third sister definitely did not do this, why don't you call all the servants in her yard over for interrogation first?" Say it again."

He cast a glance at Zhao Yuanxiang, the anger in his eyes was almost gushing out, this incident was full of weirdness, according to her guess, it must be this cheap girl who did it.Now this lowly girl has offered to interrogate the maid, what kind of tricks is she trying to do?
Just when she was wondering, she saw Zhao Cheng walking in.

He walked in with a cold face and immediately asked, "What's the matter?"

The old lady snorted coldly and said: "The things were found from Yanran's yard."

Zhao Cheng slightly surprised, looked at Zhao Yanran who was full of fear, shook his head and said, "No, Yanran has no reason to harm Yuerong."

Zhao Yanran breathed a sigh of relief when she heard what Zhao Cheng said: "Thank you father for trusting, my daughter has never done it, it must be some girl in the yard who did it, father, let's arrest them for interrogation first!"

Zhao Cheng nodded and sent someone there immediately.

Zhao Yuanxiang got up, walked to Zhao Cheng's side, and said softly: "Father, I have a way, and I can definitely find out if there is a murderer among them."

"Really?" Zhao Cheng listened curiously.

Zhao Yuanxiang whispered a few words in his ear, and a smile quickly crossed Zhao Cheng's face.

He nodded, straightened up, and strode out the door with the porcelain bottle in hand.

The old lady, Mrs. He and others all looked at Zhao Yuanxiang in surprise, trying to read the answer from her face, but in the end they found nothing.

After a while, Zhao Cheng came back first, and the six rough envoy maids and two personal maids of Guanyue Pavilion also knelt in a row in the hall.

Holding the porcelain vase in his hand, Zhao Cheng glanced sharply across their faces one by one, and finally asked in a deep voice, "Whose does this porcelain vase belong to?"

The maids lowered their heads in fear, and when they heard the words, they raised their heads and glanced at the porcelain vase, then they all lowered their heads again.

"Look up!" Zhao Cheng shouted.

You can only see the expressions on their faces if you let them look up.

But the faces of the eight servant girls were full of fear, but there was no sign of guilt or panic.

Zhao Cheng squinted his eyes and ordered someone to bring a pot of tea. Then he opened the porcelain bottle in his hand and poured the white powder inside in front of everyone.

After shaking evenly, he ordered eight empty cups to be brought, poured out the tea in the pot, and distributed it to the eight servant girls kneeling on the ground.

"Drink." The one-word order carried an irresistible majesty.

The old lady, Mrs. He, the two aunts, as well as Zhao Yanran, Zhao Wenjun, and Zhao Yihuan all changed their faces.

That is highly poisonous!
If they drank it, eight people would be poisoned to death at once!No injustice, no enmity, what a killing!
The old lady immediately shouted: "Cheng'er..."

"Mother, don't worry about it." Zhao Cheng interrupted her and fixed his eyes on the eight maids in front of him.

The maids didn't know anything, you looked at me and I looked at you, and finally buried their heads together and drank the tea.

A trace of doubt flashed across Zhao Cheng's face, and he looked at Zhao Yuanxiang.

Zhao Yuanxiang smiled and said, "It seems that the murderer who poisoned him is no longer among these people."
