Yan Chi reported: "General, according to the investigation, there is nothing unusual in their daily meals, and the doctors did not find any poison in their meals."

"But I just heard from an old lady that there was a strange thing a few days ago. A salt merchant sold salt at a low price in the west of the city because he was leaving Shengjing."

"The people in the west of the city scrambled to buy salt, and some even hoarded salt. It is said that the price sold by the salt merchant was one-tenth or one-twelfth of the usual price."

"When did that happen?" Salt is monopolized by the government, so how could it be sold at a low price privately?

Yan Chi said: "It is said to be a month ago."

"Check the salt they bought." This unusual thing may be the source of this poisoning incident.

The doctors took turns to check, but did not find any abnormalities.

Fortunately, Fu Kang rushed to the scene that afternoon.

He was originally playing with his friends in Yecheng. After receiving the news, he immediately rushed back to Shengjing.

Fu Kang was wearing a black robe, with a peerless face and a pair of phoenix eyes with a few traces of evil charm.

When he saw Qin Yuchuan, the cold aura around him subsided a little.

"General Qin, what kind of trouble did you encounter that you are willing to come to me?"

Qin Yuchuan kept a distance from him, "Go and take a look at these unconscious people. What kind of poison did they have?"

"You are so rude!"

Having said that, Fu Kang still went to help diagnose the pulse.

He looked calm, even though there were a group of poisoned people lying around him, he was not surprised at all, as if he had already gotten used to it.

His hand gently rested on the pulse of an unconscious man.

"I thought it was some strange poison, but it's just a small Datura flower. How come all of you can't diagnose it?"

Qin Yuchuan: "Datura?"

Fu Kang slowly said, "Datura flowers grow in southern Xinjiang. Although they are known as the flowers of hell, they are not that evil."

"It is full of poison, but only if you take too much will it cause hallucinations and cause death."

"They did take Datura flowers, but this coma doesn't seem to be caused by it."

Qin Yuchuan listened to Fu Kang's explanation, "You mean, in addition to this poison, they were poisoned by something else."

Fu Kang stood up, "Maybe it's not poison, just something that makes people comatose. Have you found anything?"

Qin Yuchuan pointed to the salt that had just been collected, "I suspect they put the poison in the salt, but they didn't find anything."

"Do you think they can find it out?" Fu Kang said disdainfully.

Qin Yuchuan didn't say anything. He also knew that most of these doctors were just seeking fame and had no real skills.

Fu Kang picked up a little salt from the salt bag, smelled it, and then rubbed it in his hands twice.

"Your guess is correct. The poison of this mandrake is in the salt, but the poison is quite skillful."

"It should have been poisoned before the salt was refined. It's not surprising that they can't find it."

"The person who poisoned it is quite thoughtful. I haven't encountered such an interesting thing for a long time."

Seeing that Fu Kang found the poison in the salt, Qin Yuchuan asked: "Do you have a solution?"

"Detoxification should wait until another thing that causes coma is found."

"Otherwise, if the drugs conflict, it may not be as simple as coma."

"This young master will go around with you to take a look and check. Maybe there will be results soon."

Qin Yuchuan agreed with what Fu Kang said, so he took him to walk around the west of the city.

The autumn wind was bleak, ruffling the hair of the two.

After a circle, Fu Kang seemed to have noticed something.

Qin Yuchuan saw that he had suddenly realized something, "Did you find it?"

Fu Kang: "I am a genius doctor, how could it be difficult for me."

"The person who poisoned is quite capable, do you see the locust tree?"

Qin Yuchuan looked towards the locust tree that Fu Kang mentioned, could the poison be placed on a tree?

Fu Kang saw Qin Yuchuan was speechless, "Can't you believe it? Someone actually put poison on the tree!"

"Look at the bird nests on the branches. They must have put the Losing Mind Powder into the bird nests."

"That thing is colorless and tasteless and will disperse with the wind."

"If there is no datura poison, the Losing Mind Powder will not cause any harm to people."

Qin Yuchuan: "But why is it that not everyone is poisoned even though they are eating the same salt?"

Fu Kang explained: "This depends on each person's physique and the amount of salt they consume."

"Generally, the elderly have a light taste, and many of them stay at home. They don't consume much datura and Losing Mind Powder, so they won't be poisoned."

"The person who poisoned is quite patient, which is really rare."

"Then how to cure this poison?" Qin Yuchuan asked.

Fu Kang: "I'll prescribe some medicine later. Send someone to get it and boil it. After they take it, they will vomit and have diarrhea for a while, but they will recover soon."

"If there is nothing else, I will leave first. Although we are friends, we should settle accounts with brothers."

"Don't give a penny less. Send it to the Five Elements Clinic. I have other things to do and can't stay for long."

After Fu Kang wrote down the prescription, he left in a hurry. Qin Yuchuan sent someone to the clinic to get the medicine.

As expected, after they took the medicine, they recovered as usual not long after.

Qin Yuchuan sent people to centrally process the collected salt. In order to avoid further accidents, the bird's nest on the old locust tree was also removed.

After the matter was resolved, Shengjing returned to its former bustle and prosperity.

Xuanyuan Sheng was very happy to see that the matter was resolved, and he rewarded 10,000 taels of silver.

Qin Yuchuan knew that the poison that the deceased Qiu Tongfu was poisoned with was almost the same as the poison in the west of the city.

He was very sure that all this was caused by Nanjiang.

Although the poison did not cause a large number of casualties this time, some innocent people died because of the untimely treatment in the early stage.

If it weren't for Fu Kang, I'm afraid there would still be no solution now, and we can't let them go so easily.

If the people in the dark are not removed, Shengjing will never be peaceful.

For this reason, Qin Yuchuan specially reported to Xuanyuan Sheng and explained his views.

Xuanyuan Sheng attached great importance to this matter, after all, it has threatened the country.

Therefore, he sent his confidant to investigate the matter. Qin Yuchuan was relieved and finally had time to go back to the general's mansion to rest.

He had been working non-stop for this matter for several days. As soon as he returned to the general's mansion, he saw Xuanyuan Xi waiting at the door.

"Mother, why are you here?"

Xuanyuan Xi saw that Qin Yuchuan was just a little tired and not injured, so he put down his heart.

"I haven't seen you in the past few days, and I was very worried. Now that you have returned safely, go back to your room and rest."

Qin Yuchuan nodded slightly, "Mother, don't worry. Now the matter has been handled properly. His Majesty has sent people to investigate later."

"That's good! There are so many people in the court, and you can't be sent for everything..."
