The Red Chamber: Hang Qin Keqing at the start

Chapter 113 [113] Huang Taiji: I'm here to snatch Lin Dangdang!
At this moment, in Xunyan Yushi's mansion.

Lin Ruhai ordered the servants to call all the cooks in the back kitchen.

"Someone put poisonous salt in my food. I have already found out who it is. Since he served me before, I don't want to embarrass him. I hope he will stand up by himself."

Lin Ruhai actually didn't know who the murderer was, so he could only use this trick to defraud the murderer.

However, the cooks all bowed their heads and kept silent, seemingly innocent.

But Lin Ruhai knew that the murderer was among these people.

Jia Qiang glanced at the cooks, hoping to find some clues, but the cooks all shook their heads, unable to see anything unusual about their expressions and eyes.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.

Lin Ruhai told a servant:

"Go and see, who is here?"

"Yes!"

The boy ran over immediately, opened the door and asked, and then turned back quickly.

"Master Lin, there are several Jurchens outside. The leader is Huang Taiji. He said he wants to visit you. He has something urgent to report, which is related to Master Lin's illness."

Jia Qiang was startled slightly, unexpectedly, Huang Taiji came.

Isn't it true that enemies don't get together!

Lin Daiyu's face was also a little nervous. When she was on the big yellow boat, she had heard Jia Qiang say that he had a feud with the Jurchens like Huang Taiji, and even made up two fake names. Now Huang Taiji actually came to him. I'm afraid this will reveal the truth!
Thinking of this, Lin Daiyu hastily leaned into Lin Ruhai's ear, told about Jia Qiang's quarrel with Huang Taiji, and also told Lin Ruhai that Jia Qiang lied to Huang Taiji, calling herself "Shi Nizu", And gave her a fake name, named "Lin Dangdang".

Lin Ruhai was so intelligent that he immediately understood, nodded and said:

"Don't worry, I will help you two hide it."

After all, he looked at the boy and ordered:

"Invite Huang Taiji and the others to come in!"

"Yes!"

The boy ran out, and soon led Huang Taiji and others in.

Lin Ruhai's eyes lit up, and he lost his voice:
"Zhen Huan, why are you here?"

Zhen Huan faltered and couldn't speak.

Huang Taiji clasped his fists at Lin Ruhai and saluted, and said loudly:
"I'm under Huang Taiji, I've met Lord Lin!"

Lin Ruhai smiled apologetically and said:

"I'm seriously ill and I can't return the courtesy. Please forgive me. Please sit down."

When Lin Ruhai said these words, Huang Taiji's eyes sneaked at Lin Daiyu uncontrollably.

He was almost hooked away by Lin Daiyu.

Of course, he also hated Jia Qiang next to Lin Daiyu.

When he was on the big yellow boat, Huang Taiji listened to the meowing of cats every night for most of the night.

He thought it was Jia Qiang and Lin Daiyu's tossing about.

How did he know that the voices were actually made by Jia Qiang and Qingwen.

Lin Ruhai saw Huang Taiji staring sideways at Lin Daiyu in a daze, and immediately looked displeased, and said in a deep voice:

"Huang Taiji, please sit down!"

"Oh!" Huang Taiji came back to his senses at this moment, reluctantly looked back at Lin Daiyu, turned his head to face Lin Ruhai, and said with an embarrassing smile:

"Don't be in a hurry to sit down. I came here today to cure Mr. Lin's illness."

Lin Ruhai asked in surprise:
"Do you know what disease I have?"

Huang Taiji replied solemnly:
"Master Lin is actually not sick, but poisoned, and the person who poisoned him was instructed by Zhen Huan!"

Lin Ruhai turned to look at Zhen Huan, and sternly reprimanded:
"So it was you who wanted to kill me! Tell me, which cook in my house is the murderer you appointed?"

Zhen Huan raised his finger tremblingly and pointed at a fat cook with freckles all over his face.

"Pfft!"

The fat cook fell to his knees, kowtowed to Lin Ruhai and begged for mercy:
"Master Lin, please don't kill me. I was instructed by Zhen Huan to add poisonous salt to your food instead of poison."

At this time, Lin Ruhai was so angry that he coughed, and was speechless for a while.

Lin Daiyu asked Zijuan and Xueyan to support Lin Ruhai, and helped Lin Ruhai hammer his back to stop his cough.

Seeing the situation, Jia Qiang took a step forward and asked the fat cook:
"Poisonous salt is also poison! Do you have a way to detoxify?"

The fat cook shook his head and sighed, "I don't know."

Huang Taiji was eager to express himself in front of Lin Daiyu, glared at Zhen Huan angrily, and asked:

"Zhen Huan, do you have a way to detoxify? Tell me quickly, or I will kill you!"

Zhen Huan also fell to his knees in fright, kowtowed again and again, submissively said:

"I don't know either, please don't kill me!"

Huang Taiji snorted coldly, he wanted to win Lin Dangdang's favor, but it's a pity that he has no way to detoxify.

At this moment, a systematic mechanical sound sounded in Jia Qiang's mind:
"Ding! It is detected that the host's future father-in-law has been poisoned, please ask the host to make a choice:

1. If you don't save Lin Ruhai, you will get 5000 taels of silver.

2. Save Lin Ruhai and get a detoxification pill. "

The corners of Jia Qiang's lips raised slightly, and she thought to herself: Fortunately, my Yuanyang Hot Pot Restaurant is very profitable. In only ten days, I can make a net profit of 5000 taels, otherwise, I would really be bought by option 1.

Of course, even if Jia Qiang does not have a mandarin duck hot pot restaurant now, he would not choose 1, because love is priceless, how could he not save his future father-in-law for 5000 taels?

Thinking of this, Jia Qiang silently said:

"I choose 2!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have obtained a detoxification pill, which can completely remove all the toxins in Lin Ruhai's body."

Suddenly, a lavender elixir appeared in Jia Qiang's system space.

Jia Qiang immediately said to Lin Ruhai:

"Master Lin, I have a elixir that can remove the poison in you."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Surprised and delighted, Lin Daiyu rushed to Jia Qiang in three steps at a time, looked straight into Jia Qiang's eyes, and asked:

"Is this true? Please show it to my father quickly, and I am willing to promise you any conditions."

Jia Qiang smiled lightly and said:

"Okay, it's a deal. I haven't decided what conditions I want to ask you yet. It's more important to give your father the medicine first!"

As he spoke, he took out the detoxification pill and handed it to Lin Daiyu.

"Thank you!" Lin Daiyu expressed her thanks with tears in her eyes, took the elixir, and quickly handed it to Lin Ruhai for him to take it.

Lin Ruhai was dubious, but now that he was terminally ill and there was no cure, he could only be treated as a living doctor.

Unexpectedly, after Lin Ruhai took it, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.

He tossed and turned on the bed in pain, and large beads of sweat slid down his face.

"Father, what's wrong with you?" Lin Daiyu cried bitterly, stared at Jia Qiang with mournful eyes, and asked angrily:

"What kind of elixir did you give my father? Is it medicine or poison?"

Huang Taiji gloated and sneered in his heart. If Lin Ruhai died in the hands of Shi Nizu, the relationship between Lin Ruhai and him would be completely broken. At that time, he would have the opportunity to take advantage of it. opportunity.
