The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Sun Shaozong spent most of his time sorting out a confused lawsuit, he couldn’t even have a decent lunch.

When Sun Shaozong returned to the back office and saw that it was getting late, he left Lin Delu to handle the files and hurriedly left the office carrying seven or eight packs of supplements.

When he came, he only rode a horse alone as it was convenient, but now, with all these burdens, it was not as convenient as a carriage.

Hanging the large and small packages around the horse's neck and looking at them trembling made people uneasy, so naturally, he didn't dare to soar at speed.

Traveling, meandering along the way.

When he arrived at Rongguo Mansion, he explained his intention to the doorman on duty, who immediately let Sun Shaozong in.

However, they didn’t lead him to the provincial courtyard but instead took him to Rongxi Hall to find the Old Second Master, Jia Zheng.

At first, Sun Shaozong didn't pay much attention, only thinking about Jia Baoyu whose face was burned, and didn't want to see outsiders.

Unexpectedly, after a few pleasantries with Jia Zheng, when he asked about Jia Baoyu's situation, the Old Master Jia Zheng's face showed some awkwardness and he joked, "This little brat just got a hot burn, and it's not a big deal. I had just sent someone to call him, so I guess he should..."

“Master, Master!”

At this time, he saw a young servant running over like a fly and stumbled over a big horse at the door. His mouth was full of blood, and in the blink of an eye, it overflowed!

But the little servant didn't even bother to wipe it, and he roared out, "Something big has happened, something bad has happened! The Second Master Bao is suffering from some hysteria and insists on seeking death. The maids and women can’t stop him.”

“What?!”

Jia Zheng suddenly jumped up and exclaimed in surprise, "Didn't he sleep well all afternoon and haven't woken up yet? Why did he suddenly get hysteria again?”

Although the young man's mouth was full of blood, he didn’t dare to pause for a moment. He quickly replied, "I don't know; I have been ordered to come in. You asked to invite the Second Master Bao here. So Lady Qingwen asked me to wait outside and woke the Second Master up.”

“To my surprise, I was waiting outside, and I heard Lady Qingwen shouting inside. When I heard the unbearable commotion inside, I didn't care much and wanted to go in and help.”

He exaggeratedly compared the size of a watermelon and said, "Who knew that as soon as I entered the door, I saw the Second Master holding such a large square of inkstone, and he insisted on smashing it on his forehead.”

“I desperately grabbed the inkstone, but the Second Master broke into the yard again, hitting the stone pier with his head. Fortunately, the women and maids all came out, and finally, held down the Second Master.”

How could Jia Zheng be calm after hearing this?

He immediately rushed forward a few steps—one step inside and one step outside the door. Suddenly, he remembered Sun Shaozong was there, so he turned around and forced a smile, saying, "I've made a joke today. I'm afraid…”

“What are you talking about? Baoyu and I have long known each other, and even from my Big Brother's perspective, there is no reason why the two families should take this matter into account." Sun Shaozong's gaze flickered slightly, but his mouth earnestly said, "Anyway, I am here already. Why don't I come over and see if there is anything I can help with?”

The two families were originally friends of the ancestors, and now they have become relatives again. Moreover, Jia Zheng came to value Sun Shaozong's character, and listening to him like this, it was inevitable to reject him.

So the two of them, along with the servant who was full of blood, hurriedly left the Rongxi Hall and headed straight to the main entrance of the Provincial Courtyard.

Along the way, they ran into Old Lady Jia, Jia She, Jia Lian, Madam Xing, Madam Wang, Aunt Xue, and others. They all went to see him after hearing the news.

Originally, many female relatives were accompanying him, and Sun Shaozong, an outsider, should have retreated.

But at this critical moment, how could anyone care about this?

So Sun Shaozong felt at ease and followed many women forward, secretly observing their every move.

As for the reason...

According to the young man's description, Jia Baoyu's current situation has some similarities with Chen Bo, and it was hard for Sun Shaozong not to become suspicious!

But this large group of people has been panicking and rushing forward.

When they arrived outside the door, they heard a commotion inside, and they didn't know how many beauties were shouting Jia Baoyu's name.

The Old Lady Jia hurriedly crossed the threshold and saw several maids and nannies desperately pressing Baoyu to the ground. However, Baoyu was not satisfied and was angry, desperately sticking out his neck and shouting. His eyes turned white, saliva was dripping, and countless veins on her forehead and temples were shown!

At that time, Old Lady Jia was anxious and poked the dragon's head crutch indiscriminately on the ground, shouting heartily, "What's wrong with this? How did this come about?! Baoyu, my hard-earned son! How on earth did you become like that?”

Madam Wang's reaction didn’t let him down, as she had already turned her yellow face into a face full of tears.

But Jia Zheng was quite calm. Seeing several women pressing down on Baoyu, he quickly shouted, "Hurry up, grab a rope, and tie him up.”

“Wait a minute.”

Seeing several healthy servants about to come forward and take action, Sun Shaozong hurriedly called out a moment and walked forward, saying, "Brother Bao is struggling so hard. If you tie him directly, it may hurt his muscles and bones. It would be more appropriate to wrap him in a cotton blanket before tying it.”

As soon as Jia Zheng heard this, he quickly changed his mind and asked the maids to take out two beds of bedding.

Several servants wanted to go forward to pick up Baoyu, but Sun Shaozong had already snatched him away from the women who were suppressing Baoyu. He pulled Baoyu up with one hand, rolled it up like a dumpling, tore off a piece of cotton wool, and put it into Baoyu's mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue.

In the blink of an eye, he quickly managed everything and handed Baoyu over to Xiren and Qingwen.

The people of Jia Mansion breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately there was one who believed in ghosts and gods, claiming that evil must have been the source of Baoyu's actions!

So at that moment, everyone spoke in various words, some stating to invite Witch Duan to escort him, some saying to invite witches to dance, and some recommending Zhang Zhenren from the Jade Emperor Pavilion, all of which were noisy and varied.

After quietly observing everyone for a while and recording their words and actions, Sun Shaozong broke the silence and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, Baoyu may not have been poisoned by some evil force, but by someone else."

When he wrapped Baoyu in a blanket just now, he faintly smelled the faint, sweet fragrance from Baoyu. Therefore, at this moment, he already had 90% confidence in his heart. This was the third case of the Five Ghost Curse!

At first, it was silence, and then there was a tenfold uproar.

If one was poisoned by evil, it could be inferred as a natural disaster, but if one was truly poisoned, it would be a disaster!

For a moment, everyone's suspicious gaze fell on Concubine Zhao and Jia Huan.

If anyone in the Jia family wanted to harm Baoyu the most, it was naturally none other than her mother and son, let alone the burn on Baoyu's face, which was already a few days ago. It was Jia Huan's masterpiece!

Moreover, Concubine Zhao has just received a lot of scolding for this, so she has more motivation to take action.

“Brother Sun…”

Just as everyone was skeptical, Lin Daiyu burst out with tears in her eyes and said urgently, "Who caused the poison? I'm not in a hurry to investigate at the moment. On the other hand, since you said that he was poisoned, do you know how to rescue Baoyu?”

Old Lady Jia and Madam Wang were also awakened by her words and hurriedly began to plead, asking him to quickly use his means to save Baoyu.

This...

Sun Shaozong scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I just know that there were two people who were once driven to death and crazy by this poison. As for how to detoxify..."

Later, Li Wan quickly hugged her around her waist and stared at Sun Shaozong with a pair of peach blossom eyes, asking, "Master Sun, do you have no other solutions?”

Hmm…

Sun Shaozong pondered for a moment and hurriedly said, "The poison should be on the precious jade bed right now. As long as we find out the real culprit behind the scenes, we can always find a way to save him.”

With just one sentence, Madam Wang seemed crazy and rushed toward Concubine Zhao, cursing and saying, "You cheap hoof who should be killed by thousands of knives, why don't you take out the antidote?”

Her reaction seemed to be impatient for the interrogation and she hurried to convict the crime to Concubine Zhao ahead.Follow current s on ɴovᴇlꜰɪre.ɴet
