Traveling through ancient times, the empress insisted on having a child with me

Xu Mansion.

Xu Heng was sitting at the table, and Xu Ping beside him respectfully served him tea.

"How's your business going?"

Xu Ping bowed slightly and said, "Don't worry, Master. Yunfuji's business has been greatly affected these days. Now no one dares to buy Yunfuji's dim sum on the street. Its reputation has been ruined."

Xu Heng nodded slightly and put down his teacup. Xu Ping quickly filled him up with another cup. "Master, you know how expensive the rent is in San Tiao Lane. It won't be long before Yun Fu Ji can't hold on. When the time comes, I will encourage some people to report to the police. That kid named Ling must either hand over the secret recipe or go to jail."

Xu Heng stroked his beard and said, "This matter must be done cleanly, without leaving any traces."

"Don't worry, sir. The two people I'm looking for have never even seen me."

Xu Heng smiled and said, "You have done a good job. It is worth it for me to bring you out of Ruyin. When your son is old enough, I will bring him to the capital and recommend him to a government school."

Xu Ping was stunned for a moment, then he fell to his knees and said, "Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master."

"Get up and remember to get things done."

……

It was four days later when the new flags were made. Ling Chuan had registered that there were hundreds of people who came to Yun Fu Ji because of stomach upset.

Cao Huanchun was anxious because of this: "Master Ling, our business has been very bad in the past few days, and you have paid so much for medical expenses. If we don't catch him, we will suffer the loss if he escapes."

"You sent someone to keep an eye on him, how could he have gotten away?"

"This... it's better to be safe than sorry."

"Don't worry." Ling Chuan snorted and said, "Xu Ji is doing this kind of thing, most likely for our formula. As long as you keep an eye on them, we will be sure to win."

Cao Huanchun asked again: "When will these flags be used?"

Just as Ling Chuan was about to answer, there was a commotion outside. Judging from the noise, there were at least dozens of people.

The two men hurried to the door, only to see a dozen people escorting a Yunfu Ji waiter, followed by a large group of onlookers, rushing towards Yunfu Ji.

As soon as the two of them saw the Yunfu Ji clerk, they recognized him as one of the two impostors.

Ling Chuan patted Cao Huanchun on the shoulder and said, "Look, that flag will be useful soon."

The counterfeit was in a very miserable state at this time, with a black eye, one arm hanging down, and his whole body being held up by someone, with his feet not even touching the ground.

The leader was a burly man. He came to the door of Yunfuji and asked Lingchuan with wide eyes, "Look, I caught someone. Is he from your shop?"

As soon as the man came closer, Ling Chuan could smell the fishy odor on him. Coupled with his iron tower-like figure, 1.9 meters tall, and a face full of steel-needle beard, he looked like a reincarnated Zhang Fei.

But he was not so majestic when he came last time. He was exhausted from diarrhea at that time, but he was still unforgiving and scolded Ling Chuan. However, Ling Chuan kept smiling in response, and finally he lost his temper.

Later, Ling Chuan told him that if he caught the person who framed Yun Fu Ji, he would be given 100 taels of silver. He became motivated. If he had not rested for two days, he would have caught the person a few days ago.

Even though this man was just a butcher, he was somewhat well-known in the capital, and he caught the counterfeit in just two days.

However, it was not so easy for him to trust Ling Chuan, so he sent the captured person to Ling Chuan first.

"Brother Zhang, you definitely won't believe me if I tell you so. Let him recognize everyone in my shop. If he can recognize everyone in my shop, I will treat him as my partner. You can destroy the shop or pay compensation if you want."

Zhang Biao rolled his eyes, then turned around and picked up the counterfeit like a chick, and threw him into the shop.

"Identify them for me. If you can identify all the people in Yunfuji, I won't pursue the matter of you poisoning me. Admit..."

The fake was so frightened that he was trembling and spinning around. He didn't recognize anyone for a long time. Finally, he could only point at Cao Huanchun and said, "I know this guy. He's the shopkeeper Cao from Yunfuji."

Cao Huanchun laughed and said, "I have been in these three alleys for two or three years. Everyone on the street knows me. Why don't you recognize the others? These people have been here since the shop opened. It would be great if you can name them."

The fake had a sad face and opened and closed his mouth, but no one could recognize him.

'Snapped! '

Zhang Biao slapped the counterfeit to the ground with a slap in the face. "You bastard, you poisoned me and made me vomit and have diarrhea. You also made me wrongly accuse Manager Ling..."

As he was about to kick him again, Ling Chuan quickly stopped him: "Brother Zhang, stop hitting him. If he gets hurt, it won't look good at the government office. I'll have to take him to see the officials."

Zhang Biao bowed to Ling Chuan and said, "I was wrong about Manager Ling before. I, Zhang Biao, would like to apologize to you here."

Ling Chuan said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay. You helped me catch the culprit. I have to thank you. Lao Cao, why don't you give him the silver? It's agreed to be one hundred taels."

Zhang Biao wanted to refuse, but Ling Chuan said with a straight face, "Brother Zhang, you can't let me go back on my word, just accept it. If you really feel bad, just buy me a couple of drinks later."

Zhang Biao accepted the money and said, "Okay, then tonight, at the Mingyan Restaurant at the corner of the street, I will have a banquet to apologize to Manager Ling."

"Brother Zhang, you are too kind." Ling Chuan walked to the door and said to the crowd outside the door: "As you can see, there is nothing wrong with the dim sum of Yunfu Ji. It is the result of a traitor. Not only did he harm everyone, but he also made Yunfu Ji suffer an injustice. Now I will send this person to the government. Neighbors, if you have time, why not go to the government office together to see this great injustice that will last forever."

The people at the door were there to watch the fun, and when they saw there was even greater excitement to see, they all followed.

Before leaving, Ling Chuan instructed Cao Huanchun: "Old Cao, send someone to give Madam An a message, asking her to bring people to arrest the other impostor and send him directly to the authorities."

Cao Huanchun was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and nodded.

In the Shangyuan County government office, Lu Chong heard that the person who poisoned Yun Fu Ji Dian was caught, so he hurried to the court.

After a few questions, Mrs. An, Luo Suyu, also arrived, bringing with her another impostor.

Luo Suyu's elder brother had already told Lu Chong about the conspiracy, and since even An Xiang's son had fallen into the trap, Lu Chong naturally put his utmost attention into the investigation.

However, after Lu Chong's interrogation, he found out nothing. This impostor was actually a refugee from outside the area. He received ten taels of silver a day from others and mixed laxatives into Yunfu Ji's snacks. As for who was the mastermind behind the scenes, the two men could not explain clearly.

Even though Lu Chong used torture, in the end he only knew that the other person was a man, probably in his forties. He knew nothing about his other physical characteristics.

Lu Chong was now in a dilemma. Although he subconsciously believed that Xu Ping did it, he had no evidence and could not arrest anyone at will. So he could only pass the ball to Ling Chuan.

"Lingchuan, I want to ask you, do you suspect anyone?"
