Chapter 110: Poison

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After arriving at the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant, he was led to a private room by the “waiter”, who even enthusiastically ordered a large table of sumptuous dishes for him. Second Uncle Ning felt good that Shopkeeper Lei needed his help and ate without any pressure. He naturally did not know that the “waiter” who led the way to order food for him had long disappeared.

Shopkeeper Lei snorted in disdain when he found out about Second Uncle Ning’s crazy ordering of the signature dishes. He mocked Second Uncle Ning’s country bumpkin behavior, but he endured it when he thought of the secret recipe he was about to obtain. The two sides had a “happy” chat. Shopkeeper Lei received the promise. Second Uncle Ning ate his fill and even packed the remaining food. However, just as he reached the entrance of the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant, his vision suddenly darkened and he fell to the ground.

This sudden change frightened the guests in the hall. They boldly went over to take a look and realized that Second Uncle Ning was foaming at the mouth and twitching. Then, someone shouted, “Did you eat something wrong?”

If it was just diarrhea or something happened after he returned home, Shopkeeper Lei still had time to settle it. However, it was mealtime and it happened at his door. It was impossible to turn a big matter into a small matter. He hurriedly sent someone to bring Second Uncle Ning into the inner room and thought of finding an excuse to settle it if he was not feeling well. Unexpectedly, the bailiff, who usually did not appear, suddenly appeared.

“Someone reported to the officials that the food in your Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant is dirty and someone died. Where is he?”

Shopkeeper Lei glared at the waiters who were not nimble enough and had yet to hide Second Uncle Ning. The personal servant tried to go forward and delay. “It’s all a misunderstanding. Our guest is not feeling well. We’re about to bring him to rest. Sir, you’ve worked hard. Why don’t you sit down and have a cup of tea first?”

However, he was pushed away by the official. “What tea? Can’t you see that we’re handling a case? Over there, hand him over. If you take another step, you’ll be dragged back in the name of obstructing the mission!”

“Send him to the medical center first. No matter if he’s not feeling well or has eaten something wrong, we can’t delay his treatment.”

These words made sense. The surrounding commoners agreed and immediately helped carry Second Uncle Ning away.

In his unconscious state, Second Uncle Ning could only vaguely hear someone talking in his ear—

“Is it done?”

“How can it go wrong? This poison will flare up in no time after being fed to him. I’ll use Second Brother Ning’s life to threaten Fengnian later. I’m not afraid that he won’t hand over the secret recipe obediently.”

“Then should 1 give Second Brother Ning the antidote after obtaining the secret formula?”

“What medicine? Only a dead person can keep a secret.”

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

The guard of the Yun generation, who was disguised as a commoner, curled his lips in disdain and quietly retreated. His figure was agile. After making a few turns, he changed his clothes and disappeared into the sea of people.

In the medical center, the old physician pulled out the silver needle from the leftovers and turned to the official with a trembling voice. “T-there’s poison…”

Shopkeeper Lei’s eyes were filled with disbelief. He had thought about whether the food he gave Ning Fengcai was stale or not. He had never thought about “poison”. “Impossible!”

The bailiffs pulled out their sabers. “Shopkeeper Lei, please follow us back to the county office.”

Shopkeeper Lei was not flustered. Prefect Yan from the Luo Prefecture’s government office was his distant uncle. With this relationship, the county office of Xijiang County had always turned a blind eye to his actions. Otherwise, he would not have disgusted Fragrance Restaurant for so many years.

Before he left with the bailiff, he gave the servant, who had followed him for many years, a look. The latter immediately slipped into the crowd and returned to the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant.

Shopkeeper Lei, who was brought back to the government office, was very calm from the beginning to the end. Even when Second Uncle Ning woke up after being forced to drink two bowls of medicine that induced vomiting, he cried and shouted that he had been poisoned by Shopkeeper Lei to ask for his brother’s secret recipe.

County Magistrate Shen asked Shopkeeper Lei how to explain with a cold face, but Shopkeeper Lei ignored the order. He just said “misunderstanding” and “I’m innocent”.

Even County Magistrate Shen, who didn’t like to put on airs, was displeased by his attitude.. Was Lei Wanjun so sure that no one could do anything to him?
