Chapter 90
"Master, this is the new spring tea from the south. It is the last wave of this season. When summer comes, this tea will not be so fragrant."

A middle-aged man dressed as a pharmacy shopkeeper brought a cup of freshly made hot tea and handed it to Mu Chenjun with a flattering smile on his face.

"Really? I'll try it."

The tea lid opened the needle-like tea leaves, and the green tea water was full of water, and a burst of fragrance came out.

Mu Chenjun took a sip and couldn't help showing a satisfied smile. It really was good tea.

"Old He, thanks to you this time."

Mu Chenjun put down the teacup, and said to the middle-aged man meaningfully, a hint of smugness appeared on the corner of his mouth inadvertently.

But what really made Mu Chenjun feel at ease was the announcement from Baichuntang.The notice that Jing Zhaoyin posted today about Baichuntang's execution of the dead is simply pleasing to the hearts of the people.

Originally, Mu Chenjun just wanted to teach Baichuntang a lesson, so he asked his subordinates to buy a batch of cinnabar, then mixed it with safflower and sold it to Baichuntang.

Sure enough, the stupid guy at Baichuntang just saw that the price was cheap, and the third child who sold the medicine said a lot of things like family difficulties and hungry children, so the deal was done.

I thought that many people would have mild reactions such as nausea and vomiting after taking Baichuntang's medicine.

Shopkeeper He next to Mu Chenjun gave him an idea. These small disturbances might not be able to fundamentally uproot Baichuntang. The bigger the trouble, the better.

Mu Chenjun thought for a moment and felt that what Lao He said was reasonable, so he handed over this matter to Lao He.

Shopkeeper He has a brother who cares more closely, named Lao San.Asking Mu Chenjun to give him some hard-earned money, this matter started without anyone noticing.

"Where the young master said, Baichuntang is to blame for it. If it wasn't for being so popular and arrogant at the beginning, someone would always want to teach them a lesson. Now, we are doing justice for the sky!"

Shopkeeper He bent down and said flatteringly that if he catered to his boss, he would be able to hang out longer.

Sure enough, the last act of doing things for the sky pierced Mu Chenjun's heart. Whoever dares to stop Yuyaotang from doing business will be a dead end.

There was a shameless and shrewd smile on Mu Chenjun's handsome face, which was very annoying.

"It's just, young master, last time you said that it was the third miss of the Mu family who sat in the Baichun hall. This time, I'm afraid the third miss will not be able to escape the lawsuit. According to your relationship with Master Mu's family, this..."

Shopkeeper He couldn't help showing a worried look, and he didn't know if he had gone too far. He just wanted to keep the Baichun Hall in order, but later found out that Mu Chenjun's cousin was involved...

Before getting Mu Chenjun's real instructions, shopkeeper He didn't dare to act rashly. After Mu Chenjun nodded in agreement, the next thing would be logical.

"Don't worry about it, what kind of cousin is just a concubine. Besides, how can a boudoir girl show her face like this? Even if things are revealed in the end, I'm afraid my uncle and his family won't be able to tell."

"That's right, it's called the dumb eating coptis."

The master and servant chatted happily, and couldn't help laughing, as if they had the satisfaction of a successful trick.

However, this sense of satisfaction didn't last long, a guy knocked on the door of the inner hall and shouted outside: "Master, an official came to see you..."

Officials?The smile on the corner of Mu Chenjun's mouth hung there motionless, and the muscles on his face gradually began to twitch.

"Stop talking nonsense, how could an official come to the pharmacy to find the young master. You..."

Before Shopkeeper He finished his words, the door of the inner hall was kicked open vigorously, several people dressed as officials rushed in, and said sharply: "On the orders of Mr. Jing Zhaoyin Lu, I am here to arrest the young master of the Royal Medicine Hall, Mu Chen Jun, you are trying to accuse you of using fake medicinal materials to kill people, please come with us to the government office!"

killing people...

The voice that sounded like hell resounded in Mu Chenjun's ears. He panicked all of a sudden, stretched out his hand to block it, and directly poured the tea next to him to the ground.

Mu Chenjun looked at Shopkeeper He with flustered eyes, but Shopkeeper He had already been subdued by the officials, and they said that Shopkeeper He made poisonous medicinal materials more sinful.

No one expected that things would be revealed so quickly.

When Mu Chenjun knelt on the blue bricks of Jingzhao Yin's mansion, he still couldn't believe it.

He lifted up that handsome face, unexpectedly standing on the right side was the concubine sister of the Mu family. It was only later that he found out that her name was Mu Yueyin, and her voice was indeed pleasant to the ear. He did not expect that it would be like this when we meet again!
Mu Chenjun suddenly felt like a dark cloud covered the top, that day he felt that Mu Yueyin was as gentle as a spring breeze, but today he suddenly felt that there was sarcasm written on her face.

"Is it Mu Chenjun, the young owner of the Royal Medicine Hall?"

Mr. Lu stretched out his official uniform and cheered up to try the case again.

Mu Chenjun looked straight, even though he was kneeling now and was used to being pampered, he felt a needle-like pain when he just got down, but he still straightened his waist and pretended to be calm and calm.

"Returning to my lord, I am Mu Chenjun. I don't know why my lord has mobilized people to come to the government office?"

The corner of Mu Yueyin's mouth twitched unconsciously, this guy was quite good at putting on a show, thinking that he would be pretending to be deaf and dumb for a while, and it was even more likely that he would simply push the culprit to his subordinates.

As expected, Mu Yueyin's guess was perfect. When Master Lu asked about the whole story and the details of the medicinal materials, Mu Chenjun remained silent, either not answering the question, or evading his knowledge.

On the contrary, shopkeeper He rushed to answer, and took all the responsibility on himself.

"Returning to my lord, it's all small and reckless acts. It was just a small joke. No matter how much cinnabar is added, as long as it is not heated, it should not cause death. These don't care about our young master's affairs at all. It doesn't matter how big the crime is. Bear it, and please be aware of the details, my lord, and don't be fooled by the villain's words."

It's not hard to tell that shopkeeper He is a very scheming person. These words not only cleared Mu Chenjun's responsibility, but also accused the third child of lying, and took the blame with all his strength.

Quite a few officials generally understand this very well. If the case can be concluded here, it will definitely be over, because the Mu Family Royal Medicine Hall also has a certain background, and the officials are afraid of causing trouble. What's more, the murderer has been found, so there is nothing else to say. up.

However, the officials I met this time were not mediocre, and there was such a big Buddha sitting beside him. As long as the Seventh Prince did not speak, Lord Lu would not dare to close the case easily.

"Then what you mean is not your responsibility. If the cinnabar is not heated, it will not kill you. Miss Mu?"

Master Lu turned to ask Mu Yueyin, there is no one more suitable to answer than her.

"Indeed, the effect of the medicine is not that strong, and it takes a large amount of cinnabar to kill people, but once it is heated and taken, even a small packet will cause the body to fail."

Mu Yueyin nodded, looked at the pack of highly poisonous medicinal materials on the desk, and calmly explained.

"Since this is the case, if the shopkeeper of the Royal Medicine Hall denies it is me, then there is actually only one murderer!"

Master Lu suddenly raised his finger and pointed at Aunt Lai, and said, "If she hadn't warmed up the medicine and gave it to the girl, the girl would not have died!"

"I didn't kill anyone, I am wronged, my lord!"

Aunt Lai suddenly knelt down, weeping and complaining, spit and foam all over her face, and yelled at Shopkeeper He, "You are talking nonsense! You told me that the girl is going to die soon, why don't you use her to pull her away?" Down with Baichuntang, let me buy Baichuntang's medicine, and also said that the girl will not feel any pain after taking it, it's just that she will ascend to heaven earlier, I just listened to your words..."

Everyone was suddenly enlightened. They really didn't expect that there would be such a layer of relationship. If Master Lu hadn't thought of this, Aunt Lai would not have exposed herself.

"You stupid woman!"

He wanted to put the blame on Aunt Lai, but when he heard that she had betrayed him, shopkeeper He was furious, and yelled at Aunt Lai on the spot in disregard of the majesty of the government.

The scene was chaotic for a while, and Aunt Lai even rushed up to fight with shopkeeper He. One scolded him for being stupid, and the other called her worthless girl.

Xiao Yi frowned even more, he couldn't believe that he would witness this scene with his own eyes, it was so filthy.

Master Lu noticed the dissatisfied look of the Seventh Prince, and ordered the officials to pull the two away. After the silence, he leaned over to Xiao Yi's side, and asked softly how he should be punished.

"I don't think it's a good thing, Mr. Lu can make up his own mind."

After leaving a word, Xiao Yi got up and left, and Hou An and Hou Bei followed closely behind.

Hey, it's up to me to make up my own mind, what's that idea?
Mr. Lu was worried, if the sentence was not good, would the Seventh Prince pass it to the ears of the Holy One, read a book, then he would be finished.

But Wang Ye just said that they are not good things, what does that mean?
Lord Lu picked up the gavel with a corner missing again, and sentenced both shopkeeper He and Aunt Lai to unforgivable crimes on the spot. They were sentenced to prison sentences of different terms. I will never get out of prison again in this life.

Mu Chenjun, on the other hand, was unscathed.

Mu Yueyin bumped into Mu Chenjun who had just finished tidying his robes at the entrance of the government office, smiled lightly at the corner of her mouth, and said faintly: "Cousin, you can take care of yourself."

The scorching sun had long lost its heat, and it slowly fell behind the mountain along the skyline. The evening breeze was slightly cool, but it was very comfortable.For some reason, there was a feeling that time had passed, and Mu Yueyin felt that she must have thought too much. Too many things happened today, and it was a blessing among misfortunes to be able to stand at the gate of the mansion intact.

Mu Yueyin felt that it was unfortunate that Mu Chenjun would treat Bai Chuntang like this. After revealing his identity that day, it only aroused the other party's hostility.

This doesn't make any sense at all.

However, after Mu Yueyin respectfully called Mu Chenjun his cousin and gently reminded him of his many injustices, she didn't expect Mu Chenjun's reaction to be that way.

I saw him tightening the jade belt around his waist, straightening his clothes, looking impeccably dandyish, with extremely frivolous brows, and smiled back: "There are no brothers in business, let alone cousins, what the third lady doesn't know?" , I should thank me for teaching you a good lesson. Do it yourself? I will return this sentence to Miss San."

With a sneer, Mu Chenjun walked towards the East Street without looking back.

"Miss, this young master is too proud, he has no manners at all."

Xia He pouted and complained that she had met several relatives and friends who were close to Mu's family, but she had never seen such ones before. It was as if her eyes were on the top of her head, and she was defiant.

Where is it impolite, such an attitude is clearly treating her as an enemy.

Mu Yueyin frowned, and her radiant apricot eyes showed suspicion. On the surface, Mu Chenjun was polite before, but in fact he was playing tricks behind his back. Even though he knew she was the doctor of Baichuntang, he still spared no effort blow.

It seems that there are still many unknown secrets.

"The government can't do anything to a person with such a vicious mind. I think this kind of person should be severely punished."
