After arriving at Tianxiang Tower, he was led to the private room by the "waiter" who enthusiastically ordered a large table of sumptuous dishes for him. Uncle Ning felt good about himself and thought that shopkeeper Lei was asking for something from him, so he ate without any pressure. Of course he didn't know that the "waiter" who showed him the way and ordered food had long since disappeared without a trace.

Shopkeeper Lei snorted with disdain when he learned about Uncle Ning's behavior of ordering signature dishes like crazy and laughed at his countryman behavior. However, thinking about the secret recipe that he was about to get, he tolerated it. The two parties had a very happy conversation. Shopkeeper Lei got it As promised, Uncle Ning had enough to eat and drink, and he didn't forget to pack the rest of the food. However, as soon as he reached the door of Tianxiang Tower, his vision suddenly went dark and he fell to the ground.

This sudden surprise frightened the guests dining in the lobby. The brave ones went over to take a look and found that Uncle Ning was foaming at the mouth and twitching all over. He also heard someone shouting: "Is this what I ate wrong?" ?”

If it was just a simple diarrhea, or something happened after returning home, shopkeeper Lei still had time to find a way to deal with it, but it happened to be a meal, and it happened in front of his house. It was impossible to turn the big thing into a trivial thing, so he hurriedly sent someone to think about it. He brought Uncle Ning into the inner room, thinking that he would find an excuse for "physical discomfort" later, but unexpectedly, the usually invisible government servant suddenly appeared.

"Someone reported to the official that the food in your Tianxiang Tower was not clean and people died because of it. Where are the people?"

Shopkeeper Lei glared at the waiters who were not quick enough to hide the person. The waiter tried to step forward and delay: "It's all a misunderstanding. The guest is not feeling well. We are preparing to take him to rest. This waiter It’s hard work, why don’t you sit down and have a cup of tea first?”

But he was pushed away by the officer: "Why are you drinking tea? I didn't see this case being handled. Over there, hand the person over. If you take one step further, he will be dragged back together on the pretext of obstructing the errand!"

"Send the person to the hospital first. No matter whether he is feeling unwell or eating the wrong thing, we cannot delay medical treatment."

This statement made sense, and the people onlookers all agreed, and they all started talking to help carry Uncle Ning away.

When Uncle Ning was unconscious, he could only vaguely hear someone speaking in his ear——

"Is it done?"

"That can still be wrong. If you feed this poison, it will take effect in a matter of seconds. Then I will threaten Boss Ning with the life of Ning Laoer, because I am not afraid that he will not obediently hand over the secret recipe."

"Then after you get the secret recipe, do you want to give Ning Laoer the antidote?"

"The cure for the cure can only be kept secret by the dead."

Uncle Ning was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat and he fainted immediately.

The guard of the Yun generation who was pretending to be a commoner curled his lips in disdain and retreated quietly. His body was flexible and he changed his attire after turning a few times and disappeared into the sea of ​​people.

In the hospital, the old doctor pulled out the silver needle from the leftovers and turned to the official with a trembling voice: "Yes, it's poisonous..."

Shopkeeper Lei was filled with disbelief. He thought about whether the food given to Ning Fengcai would be stale or not washed properly, but he never thought about "poison": "No way!"

The government officials drew their sabers: "Whatever the facts are, please ask Shopkeeper Lei to accompany us back to the county government office."

Shopkeeper Lei did not panic. Yan Zhizhou, the governor of Luozhou Prefecture, was his distant cousin. Relying on this relationship, the Xijiang County government office had always turned a blind eye to what he did. Otherwise, he would not be disgusted. I have lived in Wuxiangju for so many years.

Before leaving with the yamen servant, he gave a look to the boy who had been with him for many years. The latter immediately got into the crowd excitedly and slipped back to Tianxiang Tower.

Shopkeeper Lei, who was brought back to the Yamen, behaved very calmly from beginning to end, even though Uncle Ning was fed two bowls of vomiting soup and woke up crying and shouting that he was poisoned by Shopkeeper Lei in order to seduce him. Brother's secret recipe.

Magistrate Shen asked with a cold face how Shopkeeper Lei could explain, but the latter ignored the majesty of the gavel and the killing stick and simply said "misunderstanding" and "the common people are wronged" throughout.

Even though Magistrate Shen usually doesn't like to show off his official power, he was aggravated by his attitude. Is Lei Wanjun sure that no one can do anything about him?
