Five-year-old little girl: Mom has thousands of acres of material space

Chapter 249 Copper Wine Glass
After eating and drinking, a few people sat on the rooftop on the second floor, drinking Jiang Wei's special digestion fruit tea and blowing the cool afternoon breeze, which was very pleasant.

Governor Xie and Magistrate Du rarely had such a relaxing moment, and they didn't want to leave.

Shen Que sat aside and slowly opened the delicate little box.

Jiang Xiaoxiao's eyes suddenly became glued to it.

But when he saw that what Shen Que took out from the box was just an ordinary copper wine glass, he immediately withdrew his gaze.

She thought it was something important, but she didn't expect it to be just a wine glass.

"Is this what was found in the Huang family?" Shen Que stroked the wine glass and spoke slowly.

Governor Xie nodded and said, "I have sent people to interrogate the Huang family privately. This is indeed the wine glass that General Shen used during his lifetime."

Something that Mr. Shen used during his lifetime?

Jiang Xiaoxiao suddenly became energetic and her eyes fell on the wine glass again.

Shen Que worked hard to rectify the Huang family. Apart from the account book, was it just to get this thing?

"I sent people to search Huang's house several times. It's strange. According to the records in the account books, there should be a lot of bribes collected by his family in private, but they are all gone." Xie Xie shook his head helplessly. He said, "Fortunately, this wine glass is still there."

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked away somewhat guiltily after hearing this.

Governor Xie continued: "But it doesn't matter. With that account book, the Huang family will not be able to escape this time, and they can also catch those old guys in the capital."

Shen Que did not speak, but carefully rubbed the copper wine glass in his hand with his fingers. After a moment, he said: "These alone...are not enough to find what I want."

"I know what you mean." Governor Xie sighed, with a hint of persuasion in his tone, "The death of General Shen is indeed suspicious, but it has been so many years, and you have been looking for evidence for so many years... maybe If God doesn’t fulfill your wishes, you’ve already done this, so forget it.”

"Forget it?" Shen Que curled his lips sarcastically and put the wine glass on the table. "Shen's long-cherished wish has been this all his life. Let me forget it, unless Shen dies."

Governor Xie moved the corners of his mouth, but in the end he didn't offer any further advice.

Magistrate Du next to him realized something was wrong and did not dare to say anything. He just silently took a sip from the tea cup.

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

Jiang Xiaoxiao glanced at everyone's faces and did not dare to say anything casually.

Her eyes inadvertently fell on the copper wine glass again, and she couldn't help but think of a poem she had learned in her previous life:
——"A golden cup of sake weighs ten kilograms."

In ancient times, these princes and generals really liked to use gold wine vessels to hold and drink wine.

However, I really disagree with this hobby.

You should know that these ancient metal products contain a lot of lead, especially copper wine glasses. Over time, copper and lead will dissolve into the wine, and it is easy to be poisoned if you drink it.

No wonder the lifespan of ancient people is generally short...

Jiang Xiaoxiao murmured in her heart, and the next second, she seemed to realize something, and her eyes suddenly widened.

and many more!

This is the wine glass that General Shen used during his lifetime. Isn’t that...

"What's wrong?" Shen Que noticed Jiang Xiaoxiao's strange behavior and gave her a strange look. He seemed to want to ease the atmosphere and deliberately joked: "What are you doing staring at that wine glass? Your eyes are about to pop out." ”

Jiang Xiaoxiao ignored Shen Que's teasing words and stammered: "Wine, there is poison in the wine glass..."

Shen Que sat up suddenly: "What did you say!?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao thought for a while, then pointed to the cup and said: "I have read in medical books that this kind of copper cup contains a lot of lead and copper. Over time, people who drink from this cup will become weaker and sicker, and eventually Death..." Afraid that Shen Zhen wouldn't believe it, she also told the story about Li Xiufen's disfigurement caused by using rouge and gouache that contained a large amount of lead.

Shen Que didn't know whether to believe Jiang Xiaoxiao's words, his face was dark, his eyes were fixed on the wine glass, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

At this time, Governor Xie said: "I once heard that before his death, the late emperor took an excessive amount of pills containing a large amount of lead and cinnabar. Before his death, he was physically weak and his symptoms of serious illness were similar to those of Shen Da. The general was almost alive..."

Governor Xie's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Shen Que's heart hard.

He slumped back on the chair and closed his eyes feebly, as if he was forcing himself to accept something...

Governor Xie looked at Shen Que with complicated eyes and said nothing.

Magistrate Du next to him was looking at his nose and nose, as if he didn't hear anything. He sipped the tea in his hand without daring to raise his head.

At this moment, Jiang Xiaoxiao also realized that she could no longer listen to these words.

She quickly stood up and said, "The tea is gone. I'll go down and make another pot for you."

After saying that, he hurriedly went downstairs holding the teapot.

As soon as Jiang Xiaoxiao left, Governor Xie immediately spoke: "I think you can stay here this time and don't go back to Beijing."

Shen Que's mood had stabilized at this moment, but his face was dark and unclear, and he didn't know if he had listened to his words.

Governor Xie added: "You can survive here. If you take this wine glass back to Beijing, I'm afraid..."

Shen Que shook his head and slowly uttered a few words: "Jiang Yu is still there."

Hearing this, Governor Xie was speechless.

indeed.

Jiang Yu is still in the capital.

If Shen Que doesn't go back, then Jiang Yu will be like a hostage and remain in the hands of those in the capital forever.

But he still asked without giving up: "You don't want to stay here? Don't you have that much interest in the Jiang family's young lady? Otherwise, why are you so anxious to make peace with her?"

Shen Que was stunned and looked up at him in astonishment.

When Magistrate Du next to him heard this, his fingers trembled in fright, and the tea cup in his hand slipped uncontrollably and fell straight down.

Shen Que reflexively stretched out his hand and subconsciously reached out to catch it. Before his fingertips touched the tea cup, the tea cup was attracted by an invisible force and stagnated in mid-air for half a second.

Shen Que picked up the tea cup with quick eyes and hands and put it on the table without changing his expression.

Governor Xie looked at Shen Que's operation with disbelief, and was so surprised that he couldn't even speak.

It wasn't until a long time later that he seemed to come back to his senses and murmured: "Your inner strength... seems to be much stronger than before..."

Shen Que gave a faint "hmm" and said without changing his expression: "I just got some opportunities."

Seeing that Shen Zhen did not mean to say more, Governor Xie did not ask further, but said: "Since you have such a strong internal power to protect yourself, I am relieved that you will return to the capital this time. "

After being interrupted by this incident, the question that Governor Xie had just raised was ignored and no one mentioned it again.

"There's no rush to return to Beijing. I still have some things to deal with." Shen Que spoke again.

After saying that, he looked solemnly at Magistrate Du who had remained silent beside him, and said slowly: "Please arrange your time. I want to visit the Huang family in prison tonight."

There were a few things he wanted to make sure of again.
