The cooking color is delicious, general, don't bite me

Chapter 138 It Turned Out to be a Counterfeit

This Kuang Ruhai looked like a covetous person who feared death, Meng Fuling thought that he would not be able to stand the finger-slapping punishment, and confessed to Shang Qihao, but if he didn't want to, he would bite her back.

The emperor frowned, pursed his lips tightly, and remained silent for a long time, making it difficult for people to see what he was thinking at this time, and only felt that he was extremely angry.

"Death is imminent, how dare you slander Fu Ling?" Qi Xuan sneered, looking at his posture, he seemed to want to torture Kuang Ruhai himself.

Shang Qihao stood up and said ironically, "Emperor Father hasn't made up his mind yet, what is General Qi doing? Could it be that he wants to use force to make Kuang Ruhai change his mind?"

His original intention was to drag Qi Xuan into the water. He thought that this idea was in vain, but now the opportunity came again, he naturally had to seize it, and let Qi Xuan and Meng Fuling help him take the blame. I hope Kuang Ruhai can bite Meng Poria does not let go.

"Second Highness, what do you want to do again? Which eye of yours sees that the general is going to use force against Kuang Ruhai? You defend Kuang Ruhai so much, do you have any ulterior secrets between you?" Meng Fuling sneered.

Now that Shang Qihao still wants to pour sewage on her body, why should she be polite?
"Meng Fuling, it's useless to show off your quick tongue! My Highness is strange. Could it be that you knew in advance that there was a problem with the rice and fish, so you just replaced it temporarily? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?" Shang Qihao curled his lips. , with a barbed smile and a calm tone.

Prime Minister Luo and Qi Youming were not here at this time, otherwise, they would definitely have grasped this point and bombarded Meng Fuling vigorously.

However, Shang Qihao's faction stood up to support him, "Your majesty, I also think that the Meng family is very disgusted. Since she has long discovered that there is a problem with rice and fish, why didn't she say it? The empress dowager, and Are you adults poisoned?"

This time, Shang Qiyan snapped up and said: "Master Huo, are you stupid? Meng Shi found out that there is a problem with her rice and fish, but it doesn't mean she knows that other people have problems. Maybe she thought it was just for her."

"Five Emperors—" Shang Qihao really didn't understand why Shang Qiyan wanted to help Meng Fuling, and it was so obvious. Didn't they just meet today?

"Hey, Second Emperor Brother, I said that your reaction now corresponds to the sentence that there is no silver 300 taels here." Shang Qiyan interrupted Shang Qihao.

The emperor, who watched them quarreling with each other with cold eyes, finally said, "Enough! Why are you arguing? Who did the poisoning, I will investigate and find out!"

After finishing speaking, he glared at Kuang Ruhai again, "Can you guarantee that what you're telling is the truth? Do you really think I'm a foolish king?"

Kuang Ruhai's body trembled violently, and he stammered: "No, I don't dare to say half a lie, a lie—"

After saying this, Kuang Ruhai actually peed on his pants on the spot, there is no way!He really couldn't bear the pressure brought by the emperor's Longwei and Shang Qihao.

Except for the person who was escorting him, the others who got a little closer to him all looked disgusted, covered their noses and moved away.

Not allowing Kuang Ruhai to relax, the emperor said again: "If you dare to speak half a lie, I will punish you for the crime of murdering the empress dowager and the court officials, and I will destroy your nine clans!"

"Nine, Nine Clans—" Kuang Ruhai rolled his eyes and fainted from fright.

But the emperor didn't intend to let him go easily, so he ordered the executioner to wake him up, and said to his kitchen assistant: "If you know what you know and don't report it, you will be guilty of the same crime as him!"

Those help cooks begged for mercy and complained again, perhaps because their expressions really didn't look like fakes, the emperor didn't continue to press them.

After a while, Kuang Ruhai woke up, and before his mind was completely clear, the emperor said: "Kuang Ruhai, your kitchen assistant has confessed, how brave you are! How dare you fool me!"

high!This move is really high, Meng Fuling couldn't help secretly praising, the emperor first threatened Kuang Ruhai with words, and scared him to faint.

When he woke up, without waiting for his reaction, he did something like this, making him think that when he passed out, his assistant chef confessed the truth.

At this time, he didn't even have time to think about whether his kitchen assistant really knew something or how he confessed, he was just dazed and at a loss.

Shang Qihao was very anxious, and began to regret that he couldn't hold his breath, and should not have attacked Meng Fuling at this time.

"Your Majesty, spare your life! The Caomin was coerced by the Second Highness, but, but the Second Highness only said to help the Caomin win the championship, and did not tell the Caomin anything else!"

Human nature is mostly selfish, even if Kuang Ruhai confessed to Shang Qihao, he would try his best to insist that he didn't know.

Shang Qihao's expression also changed completely, and he hurriedly knelt down to defend himself: "Father Huang Mingjian, my son has no personal relationship with Kuang Ruhai, and never promised to help him win the championship."

Meng Fuling sneered, now Shang Qihao really shot himself in the foot, let's see how he ends up!She sneaked a look at the emperor's face, it was really scary.

The emperor rubbed his brows. From Shang Qihao's initial reaction, he guessed that this matter was related to Shang Qihao. Now that he really heard it from Kuang Ruhai, he still couldn't hide his disappointment.

His most valued prince died, and many princes secretly fought for the crown prince's position.Since he couldn't stop it, most of the time, he could only turn a blind eye.

In fact, the emperor has noticed Shang Qihao's recent actions, but he just didn't point it out. I didn't expect him to extend his hand to the food competition.

However, the emperor felt that there were still many doubts about this matter. For example, Shang Qihao was able to poison Mili, but he could not poison Meng Fuling's fish and the spare fish in the palace without revealing his flaws. The poison of the fish is obviously Not his handwriting.

After some weighing and thinking, the emperor handed over the matter to the Ministry of Punishment for investigation, and within three days, the result must be announced.

Kuang Ruhai, his kitchen assistant and other related personnel were all sent to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Shang Qihao was confined in his mansion, and Meng Fuling was not allowed to step out of the general's mansion until the truth was found out.

For such a result, Meng Fuling was not surprised at all. No matter what, it was impossible for the emperor to interrogate his son in front of all his courtiers and a person with no status like her.

"Wait for me!" As soon as Meng Fuling, Qi Xuan and others stepped out of the palace gate, Shang Qiyan chased after him.

"Your Highness Fifth, what do you need?" Meng Fuling glanced at him, wondering why he helped her just now.

"The dishes you cook are so delicious. I haven't eaten enough. I want to go back to the General's Mansion with you. You can make some more special dishes for me to eat." Shang Qiyan said with a smile, as if it was a matter of course. What do you think is wrong with your request?

"Sorry! I don't have that much time to spare!" After Meng Fuling finished speaking, she didn't want to pay attention to him. There was no other way!Facing his flat smile, she couldn't be polite.

Qi Xuan held Meng Fuling's hand tightly, not even giving Shang Qiyan the corner of his eye.

Seeing that the two of them were about to leave, Shang Qiyan yelled: "Don't do this! Just let me go if you don't let me go, then tell me what ingredients to put in the barbecue to taste, the head office?"

From the time Shang Qiyan called to stop Meng Fuling, his voice was deliberately amplified, making people think that he would help Meng Fuling, but it was because of his greedy mouth, and his nature was well known, no one would think too much about it.

When Meng Fuling heard what he said later, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, as if she had already guessed his true identity.

She stabilized her emotions and pretended to be helpless, "Forget it, forget it, you are the prince, I don't dare to offend you, if you want to eat, come back home with us, but only this once!"

"Great! But as you said, I want to eat roast meat, stewed five treasures, the baggy duck is also good, and..." Shang Qiyan followed Meng Fuling, chirping and counting one The name of the dish, I kept talking non-stop, and the more I talked, the more excited I became.

Therefore, the group of them attracted a lot of strange looks, and the palace people couldn't bear to laugh and didn't dare to say anything.

But Meng Fuling was uncomfortable being stared at, feeling like animals in a zoo being surrounded.Moreover, Shang Qiyan's speech was as fast as chanting scriptures, which annoyed her very much.

"Shang Qiyan, stay away from Fuling!" Qi Xuan couldn't bear it anymore, and pushed Shang Qiyan away.

"The dignified general, why are you so stingy? I just had a few words with her, and I don't think too much about her." Shang Qiyan curled his lips, but finally kept his mouth shut.

******
"Tell me! Who are you?" After returning to the General's Mansion, Meng Fuling cut straight to the point.

Shang Qiyan's smiling face immediately collapsed, raised his hand to the side of his face, and slowly tore off a human skin mask, revealing his true colors.

"It's really you!" Even though she guessed it was Luo Yunhao, Meng Fuling was still shocked.

No one would have guessed that Prime Minister Luo's younger brother has another identity - the current fifth prince, but one can tell it's a fake.

"Why are you pretending to be Shang Qiyan? Where is the other person?" Qi Xuan asked, he was not as shocked as Meng Fuling.

"It's a long story, and it's my bad luck!" Luo Yunhao sighed repeatedly.

"Then make a long story short!" Meng Fuling said impatiently, she didn't want to hear too much nonsense from Luo Yunhao.

"Ahem, what happened..." Luo Yunhao cleared his throat before explaining the ins and outs of the matter.

It turns out that Luo Yunhao and Shang Qiyan have known each other for a long time, and they have a good relationship. Before he left Beijing Yunyou, he often played with Shang Qiyan.

Six months ago, Luo Yunhao returned to Beijing because of his mother's birthday.When Shang Qiyan learned that he was going back to Beijing, he asked him to have a drink in private.

Unexpectedly, Shang Qiyan's wine glass was smeared with poison, the amount of poison was so high that he didn't even have time to find an antidote, so he died of the poison.

Because the two had a good relationship, and Shang Qiyan died in front of Luo Yunhao, he made up his mind to avenge Shang Qiyan, so he changed his appearance into Shang Qiyan's.

Luo Yunhao originally thought that seeing that Shang Qiyan was not dead, the black hands behind the scenes would definitely show their feet, but he was wrong, the black hands behind the scenes hid very deeply.

After hearing this, Qi Xuan's face became more and more serious, but Meng Fuling didn't feel much, after all, she didn't know Shang Qiyan.

On the contrary, Luo Yunhao, no doubt he is a person who has wandered in the rivers and lakes for a long time, he really values ​​friendship, knowing that Shang Qiyan's death is very involved, he is still willing to stir up this muddy water.

It must be known that if people find out that he is pretending to be the prince, they will definitely think that he is the real culprit who poisoned Shang Qiyan.

"I'm afraid you still have something to hide!" Qi Xuan said firmly.

Luo Yunhao smiled wryly, touched his nose, "It's not a secret, it's important, I don't know if I should say it or not."

Qi Xuan didn't allow him to avoid this topic, and directly pointed out: "Shang Qiyan appears to be unrestrained, but he is actually not an easy character."

"How do you know he's ambitious, uh—" Luo Yunhao blurted out.

Before he finished speaking, he felt that he had used the wrong words and should not use ambition to describe Shang Qiyan, but he couldn't find the right words for a while.

"Although I've rarely been in Beijing, it's not like I don't know anything about it." Qi Xuan smiled lightly.

Regarding the affairs of the princes, the prince was very concerned about it in private, and the methods he used were clever, no matter how well Shang Qiyan pretended, he could not escape the prince's eyes.

Qi Xuan and the prince are close friends, the prince will never hide anything from him, so he naturally knows about Shang Qiyan.

Since Qi Xuan couldn't hide it from Qi Xuan, Luo Yunhao didn't hide anything anymore, "I found out the person who poisoned him, but as soon as the person saw his deeds revealed, he bit his tongue and killed himself before I could ask anything. After that, I After a lot of investigation, we can't find out who the real mastermind is."

Meng Fuling said: "How can the prince be murdered and the prince be poisoned? Could the mastermind be the same person?"

Before, Qi Xuan said that the crown prince was poisoned and died. As for how and what kind of poison he was poisoned, he didn't say anything, and she didn't ask.

She didn't mean to say it, but Qi Xuan's eyes lit up, and he asked urgently: "Do you know what kind of poison Shang Qiyan has been poisoned by?"

Luo Yunhao gave Qi Xuan a strange look, "It's the King of Hades who killed him, why are you asking so many questions? Do you really think that the person who poisoned Qiyan and the prince is the same person?"

Qi Xuan was silent, and Meng Fuling could tell just by looking at his expression that the poison that the crown prince was poisoned must also be Yan Wang Duoming San.

"Yan Wang Duo Ming San is not unsolvable, it's just that Qi Yan has been poisoned too deeply." Luo Yunhao sighed.

Meng Fuling hesitated for a moment before saying to Luo Yunhao: "You shouldn't have gotten involved, now you want to get out, there should be time—"

Before she could finish speaking, Luo Yunhao interrupted: "Stop trying to persuade me, if your friend died in front of you, would you feel better?"

Meng Fuling didn't answer, but she thought in her heart that she had to do what she could. Besides, in Luo Yunhao's situation, if she could not find out who the mastermind was, she would put her family and life on the line. The crime of pretending to be a prince is not small. , and may even involve family members.

"It's really reckless of you to come back home with us rashly." Qi Xuan could understand Luo Yunhao's mood, and his tone softened a lot, but he still gave a reprimand.

Luo Yunhao didn't take it seriously, "It's better to be open and open to attract suspicion if you communicate in private."

"Great and generous? Since the mastermind behind the scenes murdered Shang Qiyan, he must have discovered something. If you openly get close to me and Fu Ling, it will only make him more suspicious." Qi Xuan frowned, disapproving.

Meng Fuling also felt that Qi Xuan's words were reasonable, he could poison the crown prince and Shang Qiyan, and he hid it so deeply that the mastermind behind the scenes must not be underestimated.

"But I'm here!" After hearing what Qi Xuan said, Luo Yunhao realized that he was a little impulsive, and was immediately annoyed.

"Forget it, you just—" Qi Xuan had just opened his mouth when there was a sound of footsteps outside.

At the same time, Butler Lu's surprised voice sounded, "Young master, why are you lying on the door and eavesdropping?"
