After traveling through time, I married the prince by signing in

Chapter 130: Poison

After Chu Xiang waited for him to leave, he collapsed to the ground and then smiled.

The poison is colorless and odorless, and the body will not turn black after death. It would be strange if you could find it.

If she doesn't pretend, it will be troublesome if they find out about her. If they don't find out, people will say she doesn't cherish her husband.

Hui Chengyuan did not leave the yamen, but returned to the room where Guo Sen's body was placed.

He took out the envelope again and read its contents.

"Bharata is a colorless and tasteless poison. Within three days of taking it, the internal organs of the person will gradually shrink. The person will not feel any pain and will die in his sleep after three days."

This poison is a banned drug from a country called Bianfan in Song State. Bianfan is 180,000 miles away from Chicheng. How could this poison appear here?

Hui Chengyuan looked at it again, then put the letter away again and called someone over, saying, "Go and get the coroner."

After Yuan Man gave the report to Yuan Yi and asked him to deliver it to Hui Chengyuan, he left the yard and went to the farm outside Chicheng.

She looked at the cattle seedlings rewarded by the system. The reward in Mengcheng was large yellow cattle, but this time they were all grassland black cattle, all of which were edible cattle.

The money from the two ranches combined is definitely enough to run a hot pot restaurant, so she can finally open the hot pot restaurant.

Yuanman arrived at the farm. This place was not a grassland, but it was a plain area. There were trees, but not many. Most of them were very wide lawns.

Her land is basically all lawn, perfect for raising cattle.

The manager of this manor was also a young man who had just taken over. When he saw Yuan Man, he was stunned for a moment, "Madam, who are you?"

"I'm the new owner of Zhuangzi, and I came to take a look." Yuanman handed him the deed, then held Yuanbao and looked around Zhuangzi's situation.

Du Zifeng looked at the deed in his hand, then looked at his new boss who had already walked away, and hurriedly chased after him.

"What are we growing on the farm now?" Yuan Man asked, looking at the lush grass on the grassland.

Du Zifeng's face froze. "There are only a few sheep left on the farm now. The rest were forcibly bought away by the Guo family at a low price."

"Guo family?" Yuan Man looked at him in surprise.

"The Guo family of Xizhou Jiedushi Guo Sen?"

Du Zifeng nodded, "Yes, there is only one Guo family in Chicheng."

"When was it bought by force?" Yuan Man asked as he walked towards the villa next to the manor.

Du Zifeng immediately followed him and said, "Three days ago."

"Three days ago, someone from the Guo family suddenly came and drove away all the cattle and sheep from our farm. The same was true for the farm next door."

Yuan Man suddenly stopped walking. That was three days ago, before Guo Sen was poisoned.

And after the Guo family forcibly bought the cattle and sheep from several nearby farms, Guo Sen died. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?

"Do you know what they want to do with so many cattle and sheep?"

Du Zifeng shook his head. "I went to the neighboring farm to ask, and also went to the city to inquire. It seems that the cattle and sheep were transported away without entering the city."

Yuan Man frowned slightly and said, "Don't worry about it for now. I will have someone send over some young cattle and sheep later. You have to take good care of them again."

"I won't sell it to anyone without my consent."

She had originally planned to raise the sheep on the farm in Qingfang City here as well, since it wouldn't be ready that quickly over there anyway.

Du Zifeng nodded and said, "Yes."

Yuan Man continued walking towards the other courtyard. "There are more than 500 acres of land on the farm. In addition to the grassland, there seems to be a forest, right?"

"Yes." Du Zifeng pointed to the woodland and said, "It's right there. It's only about ten acres of land."

Yuanman looked over there and could only see some green shadows from here.

"That's enough. I have a thousand jujube trees here. You can arrange for people to plant them in that forest tomorrow."

"As for the existing trees in the woodland, move them to the boundary line."

Although Du Zifeng was a little surprised, he soon accepted it. Planting some jujube trees is better than those useless trees. "Okay."

Yuanman entered the villa, took a look, and asked Du Zifeng to prepare dinner.

"Yuan Er, go to the nearby manors and see if they are the same."

"Yes." Yuan Er took the order and left.

"Yuan Yi, arrange for someone to check where the Guo family sent all these cattle and sheep."

"Yes." Yuan Yi waved his hand and asked Yuan Liu and Yuan Qi to check.

After Yuanman gave the instructions, he went to the warehouse and put the jujube trees in. The one thousand jujube trees could finally be planted.

Then he looked at Zhuangzi's account book. After seeing the price at which the last batch of cattle and sheep were sold, Yuanman couldn't help but twitch a nerve in his forehead.

After a careful check, it was confirmed that there was no problem with the bank's accounting.

After dinner, Yuan Er also came back. It was the same with several nearby farms. All the cattle and sheep were bought by the Guo family at a very low price.

The owners of the nearby farms are basically from Chicheng, so naturally no one dares to provoke the Xizhou Jiedushi.

If you lose money once, just sell it.

Yuanman asked Yuanyi and the others to take Yuanbao back first, and she would follow after she released the cattle and sheep.

Yuan Yi and the others knew a little bit about their master's peculiarities, so naturally they didn't ask too many questions.

Yuanman found the cattle and sheep shed and released all the young cattle and sheep. After thinking for a while, he released another two thousand young horses.

But she was careful not to let the Red Hare foal out.

After the show, he left immediately.

When Yuanman returned to the house, Hui Chengyuan had already returned and was holding Yuanbao and playing with him.

Seeing her coming back, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Are you tired? I have asked someone to prepare some water. Wash up first."

"Should I prepare some food for you?"

Yuan Man kissed Yuan Bao and smiled, "I've eaten before, no need to prepare."

"How is the investigation into Guo Sen going?"

Hui Chengyuan shook his head, "It is confirmed that it was the Nabora who poisoned it, but we still don't know who poisoned it."

Yuan Man thought for a moment and said, "We can start by investigating the people around him."

Hui Chengyuan nodded, "I thought so too. After all, the person who poisoned him must be able to contact him."

"The person I suspect most is his wife, Chu Xiang."

"Oh, why?" Yuan Man looked at him.

Hui Chengyuan adjusted Yuanbao's posture and said, "Because she is not in the right state. She looks sad, but she doesn't look haggard at all."

"When I summoned her for questioning, she didn't behave like a woman who had just lost her husband."

"Every time I mentioned that Guo Sen's death was related to her, no matter how well she hid it, I could tell that she was a little flustered."

"I sent someone to check everything about her, but they didn't find anything wrong."

Yuan Man picked up a piece of Yuan Bao's molar jerky and started chewing it, "Tell me about it."

Hui Chengyuan looked at her chewing the dried meat with amusement, wondering whether he should send someone to buy some dried meat for the adults.

Seeing her glaring at him, he coughed lightly and said, "Chu Xiang, from Chicheng. Her father died early, and she was raised by her mother."

"After marrying Guo Sen, she settled her mother in a house near Guo's home. She died of illness last year."

Yuan Man glanced at him and said, "Her background is fine, but that doesn't mean she is fine, right?"

Hui Chengyuan nodded, "Indeed, so I did not lift my suspicion on her and arranged for someone to secretly observe her."

"However, there must be a reason for killing someone. What do you think it is?" Yuan Man asked, and after thinking for a while he told him what happened at the farm.

"Before Guo Sen died, he bought all the cattle and sheep from several farms outside the city at a low price of ten cents each."

"What do you think he needs so many cattle and sheep for?"
