uffer.After taking the medicine, he felt like he had just been pulled out of water, his whole body aching and sweating.The couple didn't rush to start their plan of faking death immediately. The next...The other people in the villa had finished their meal and were planning to go back to rest when they suddenly saw Li Gang and his group clutching their stomachs and collapsing.
"What, what's going on here"
Li Gang and others kept pulling people beside them and asking, "You guys, do your stomachs hurt"
"Why are you guys fine."
The person who was pulled also looked confused, "Me, us, why are we all having stomachaches Did any of you guys eat something bad that made your stomachs upset"
These few people, including Li Gang, usually like to slack off. As soon as they are not in charge, they find a place to rest and never seem to be working.
Many people dislike them and are too lazy to talk to them.
"Oh, Gangge, it hurts so much! I'm going to die!"
"Is there any antidote left Please, just give me some more."
These people were already in so much pain that they had forgotten all about Fang Jinshu and the others who were still here.
Hearing the word "antidote," she walked forward.
"Come here, apprehend these people."
When Li Gang saw Fang Jinshi come out unscathed, he knew he had probably been tricked. This widow had known about the dinner problem all along; she had changed the cooking water in advance!
"You, how did you know it was us."
Li Gang still wanted to struggle, but the pain from his stomach tormented him, making him sweat coldly. He couldn't maintain much rationality at all.
He could think of this already surprised Fang Jinshu.
"The entire manor belongs to me. Isn't it hard for you to tamper with the food"
"You really think you could blend in with such flawless disguise"
Hearing Fang Jinxiu's words, Li Gang's face turned pale. Then, a violent cramp came from his abdomen, and several people fainted one after another.
Chang He followed Zhao Xingzhou, directing the guards to tie up Li Gang and the others.
"Madam, what should we do with them"
"Send him to the officials. He deliberately attempted to poison so many people, his crimes are not light."
The prisons in Beijing were notoriously cruel, and Li Gang and the others would receive their due punishment there.
Chang He nodded and took the person away, locking them in the firewood shed, waiting until early tomorrow to send them to the authorities.
The other servants in Zhuangzi were completely baffled, clueless as to what had happened and why Li Gang and the others had been arrested.
After a long explanation, the crowd finally understood that all of them were actually undercover agents planted by someone else.
Li Gang and others' attempt to kidnap Yuanbao and sell him deeply shocked Fang Jinshu, and made her realize a lot.
Although removing all the traitors would bring a period of peace to the manor, it would also exacerbate subsequent problems. It's possible that even more people in the manor could be bought and turn against us.
But pretending not to know and secretly observing these people isn't foolproof. What if there's a slip-up in her plan today, and the treasure is really stolen and sold somewhere like that Just thinking about it sent a shiver down Fang Jinshi's spine.
The consequences were beyond what she could bear.
Therefore, she changed her plan and had Chang He make the existence of a traitor within the manor public, but she did not reveal who the traitor was.
And he also set up a reward rule: anyone who found the traitor would be awarded ten taels of silver.
Let the people inside the Zhuangzi watch each other. This serves two purposes: first, it warns those spies; second, it restrains their behavior. To avoid exposing themselves, they will certainly be careful with their words and actions for a while.
Fang Jinshi called Yuan Bao to her side.
"Abao, eat this.
She gave Yuánbǎo a detoxification pill. Back when she was in Mùzhōu City, she had also given Zongyù one.
This detoxification pill is quite complex to make, requiring thousands of poisonous herbs and medicinal plants to be condensed together. Furthermore, the unique properties of spirit spring water are added, making the failure rate a staggering 50%.
Until now, Fang Jinshi had only managed to refine four pills. She gave one to Zong Yu and one to her son.
There were still two hidden in her hands.
This thing is difficult to configure, so Fang Jinxiu is reluctant to use it casually.
As its name suggests, the Antidote Pill can cure any poison. At least, as far as she knew in Da Xi Dynasty, it could cure almost all known poisons. Giving it to Yuanbao was just for peace of mind.
Yùnbǎo listened to his mother very well; he didn't even ask what it was. When Fāng Jǐnxiù offered it to him, he opened his small mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.
After swallowing, he furrowed his brow with a belated realization.
"Mother, this pill is so bitter, Yuánbǎo doesn't like it."
When Fang Jinshu saw her son had eaten, she let out a breath of relief and smiled, rubbing Yuanbao's little head.
"Which medicine is the tastiest From now on, don't wander off alone. No matter where you go, you must always be accompanied by someone. Do you understand"
Zhao Xingzhou stood at a distance, seeing Fang Jinshu's actions in his eyes, including the worry in her eyes.
After everyone else had left, he hesitated for a while before walking up to her.Jinshu so much, you know what to say"The steward nodded. "This old servant understands, Master, please rest assured."He recalled something, paused for a moment, then spoke again."Sir, the young lady h...
