Chapter 533: Chapter 535 Getting Married_1
The casino owner reported that Li Yiguang did indeed visit, but was called away after just one game, by a person wearing a black bamboo hat that obscured their face.
Ye Ge continued his search within the city...
The next morning a message came. A fisherman fishing in the river had caught a corpse in his net.
It was the missing Li Yiguang.
...
Due to the sudden death of Li Yiguang, the investigation was momentarily stalled.
That is to say, the Inspection Mansion was unable to identify the direct poisoner, there was no evidence or witnesses to prove the poison originated from the box, and no evidence or witnesses could prove Nan Feng’s innocence.
Since those consumers who had developed facial sores had indeed used items from Nan Feng’s store, she remained the primary suspect.
Therefore, Nan Feng had to continue to be detained.
Over at Spikenard Square, Song Cheng, based on the information provided by Nan Feng, found the red fruit leaf that could counteract the cang song poison. He dispatched Xiaoqing and two constables to distribute the antidote to the victims at Spikenard Square, also providing them with appropriate compensation in silver.
But if, within half a month, there was still no evidence or witnesses to prove Nan Feng’s innocence, then Spikenard Square would have to cease business, and she would have to serve two months in prison, bearing full responsibility.
That noon, Chen Niannian came to bring food to Nan Feng.
"Lady Nan, this is your meal. Ye Ge instructed me to bring it."
"Where is he?" Nan Feng asked as she took the food.
"He’s still out there tracking the suspect. Lady Nan, don’t worry, with Ye Ge’s skills, he will surely catch the person soon."
Nan Feng looked at the food but had no appetite. She asked Chen Niannian again, "What’s the date today?"
"Lady Nan, today is February 27th."
"27th February?"
That was the day she was supposed to get married!
Nan Feng’s hand trembled.
It was her wedding day, and it didn’t seem like it would happen now, right?
"Lady Nan, what’s wrong?" Chen Niannian rarely saw her this way, and tried to soothe her. "Lady Nan, Ye Ge said you should stay here properly and not think too much."
"Okay, Niannian, you can go first, I want to eat."
After Chen Niannian left, Nan Feng tried to eat, but after just a few bites, she found her appetite had gone. She felt an unusual sense of impatience and melancholy.
If she couldn’t get out today, what would happen to her father? What about the wedding banquet in the village?
Most importantly, what would happen to her and Ye Ge?
...
At the teahouse.
Wan Fengzhen happily poured tea for Mrs. Zhi, "You are truly a phoenix among people. You managed to handle such a tough situation. I heard that there’s no way for Spikenard Square to recover this time. After Nan Feng has served her time in jail, she’ll probably have to return to Ping County. Huh, there are so many talents in the Provincial City, it’s not her turn to stir up trouble here!"
Mrs. Zhi leisurely sipped her tea, looking equally jestful, "If it wasn’t for her connections with the officials, she would have been the one being fed to the fish in the river!"
Wan Fengzhen was taken aback, "That one called... Li Yiguang, was he killed by your orders? My God, you’re bold, even daring to kill!"
Mrs. Zhi glanced at Wan Fengzhen, "What else could I do? Wait for this matter to be exposed and let the city people laugh at me for failing to punish*** and instead being irked into anger? Would I still have any reputation left, or the Zhi Beauty Salon?"
