In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband

Yes, although Wang Jinghe also advanced, she realized that Su Zhizhi was a strong opponent and might threaten her championship position in the end. Thinking of this, Wang Jinghe decided to go all out and do something bad to Su Zhizhi. She planned to hire someone to put laxatives in Su Zhizhi's food in the competition the day after tomorrow. In this way, even if the food Su Zhizhi cooked was delicious, Su Zhizhi would not be able to win the championship again.

At this time, Su Zhizhi didn't know that a big conspiracy prepared for her was about to happen.

In a blink of an eye, the day of the competition arrived.

Just before the competition, a man came to Su Zhizhi's cooking area in a mysterious way, and when no one around was paying attention, he sprinkled a layer of light white powder on it. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see it at all.

Seeing this, the man left with satisfaction, but Su Zhizhi had no idea what was happening. When she came, the man had already left.

Fortunately, Su Zhizhi has the habit of checking the ingredients in advance before cooking every time, just to prevent the possibility of someone drugging the ingredients.

When Su Zhizhi was counting the ingredients as usual, she saw the dish that was obviously abnormal. Only she knew it, and her entire back was soaked with cold sweat.

At this moment, Su Zhizhi's mind was blank, and then she subconsciously paid attention to the time. She found that there was still enough time before the start of the competition to change the ingredients, so she breathed a sigh of relief. But the next second she couldn't help but feel a fear. She didn't dare to imagine what the result would be if she didn't check this time and directly used the problematic ingredient.

The more Su Zhizhi thought about it, the colder she felt. The other party didn't want her to turn over, but fortunately, God had eyes. As time passed, Su Zhizhi signaled the eunuch in charge to come to her side.

Before the eunuch in charge could ask anything, Su Zhizhi took the lead and placed the dish in front of him, saying calmly, "Sir, there's something wrong with my ingredients. I'm going to replace them."

The eunuch in charge frowned, then signaled the imperial physician not far away to come forward.

The imperial physician took the dish from Su Zhizhi's hand and put it under his nose to sniff carefully. Then he nodded seriously to the eunuch. The eunuch then waved his whisk and asked the imperial physician to leave with the ingredients. Then he said to Su Zhizhi, "Your ingredients will be delivered to you later. It's almost time, so you should get ready first."

After saying that, the father-in-law turned around and left, and Su Zhizhi also respectfully replied, "Thank you, father-in-law."

The ingredients were delivered very quickly. Su Zhizhi gave them a quick check and confirmed that there was no problem with the new ingredients before she breathed a sigh of relief.

The bell rang soon and the game officially began. Su Zhizhi suppressed the inexplicable tension and panic in her heart, took a deep breath for a while, and when she opened her eyes again, her eyes were full of desire to win.

Su Zhizhi's hands moved very quickly. From processing the ingredients to finishing the cooking of the dish, it took only a little more than an incense stick of time. After finishing the dish, Su Zhizhi looked at the delicious food in front of her that was exquisitely presented, with good color, aroma and taste, and a look of relief appeared on her face.

The dishes were quickly taken away, and then Su Zhizhi sat aside and waited until everyone's dishes were finished. Only then did Su Zhizhi slowly return to her seat.

As usual, it was time for the judges to comment. Originally, Su Zhizhi's dish should have been presented first, but for some reason, when Su Zhizhi saw her dish again, it was already in the middle.

Su Zhizhi frowned deeply, but now was not the time to dwell on this. As the judges looked at the appearance and prepared to pick up a small piece and put it in their mouths, Su Zhizhi's uneasiness reached its peak at this moment.

Su Zhizhi really wanted to speak out to stop them, but it was too late. As the dish entered his mouth, a look of appreciation appeared on the judge's face. However, before the judge could say anything, his expression suddenly changed. Then he stood up abruptly, one hand strangling his throat, the other hand stretched forward, and he looked very painful.

But in the blink of an eye, the judge fainted on the ground, his face was pale, his lips were purple, and white foam kept coming out of the corners of his mouth. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was clearly poisoned.

The incident happened in just a moment. When Su Zhizhi came to her senses, she found herself surrounded by layers of guards. Before she could say a word, two guards rushed up from behind and restrained Su Zhizhi, preventing her from struggling at all.

Su Zhizhi had no choice but to kneel on the ground. Her expression was no different from that of the poisoned judge. She just knelt there, watching the imperial physician not far away busying himself beside the judge.

The expressions of the other contestants around Su Zhizhi were mixed, some were worried, some were excited, but no matter who they were, they all had a scale in their hearts. From the problem with the ingredients at the beginning to the poisoning of the judges now, there must be someone deliberately targeting Su Zhizhi.

But although everyone knew it, no one was willing to stand up and argue for Su Zhizhi at this time.

Su Zhizhi is a strong opponent. If she is kicked out, the remaining people still have hope of advancing. Moreover, none of them knows who Su Zhizhi has offended. If they rashly help her, they may be targeted by big shots whom they cannot afford to offend. They don't want to get into trouble.

Su Zhizhi also understood the choices of these fellow contestants, so she set her sights on the audience seats. However, after a quick glance around, Su Zhizhi's heart sank to the bottom. In the past, there would be powerful people coming to join in the fun at such competitions, but the key point today was that there was no powerful person in the audience seats. It seemed as if they had agreed to avoid this place on purpose.

Su Zhizhi couldn't help but wonder who hated her so much that she had to ruin her reputation today and make her unable to make trouble again.

After confirming that the judges were not seriously injured, Su Zhizhi was captured by the guards and thrown into jail. She was not given any chance to defend herself. She felt more and more that everything that happened today seemed to be a dead end set up for her, and she could not escape it no matter what choice she made.

The prison was dark and damp, and Su Zhizhi was pushed and locked in the innermost cell. Fortunately, she was the only one in the cell, and this was the only place where she felt comforted. However, it could not be ruled out that someone did this deliberately.

With such a big incident, Su Zhizhi had to be investigated, and the news quickly spread throughout the capital, and of course it also reached Xie Chengjin's ears.
