Finally, he walked up to Zhen Dexiu and whispered: "Teacher, please take a step to speak."
Zhen Dexiu glanced at him, wondering, and then followed him to a deserted corner.
Song Ci looked serious and said: "Teacher, there is something fishy about Gou Shijun's death."
Zhen Dexiu was surprised and whispered: "You can't say this nonsense."
"Teacher, have students ever joked with you? It is disrespectful to arrange the dead. How dare students do it?"
Zhen Dexiu's expression suddenly became serious, and his brows furrowed tightly. If it was true as Song Ci said, then killing a high-ranking official would be a very serious matter.
After thinking for a while, Zhen Dexiu said: "You follow me into the palace. This matter needs to be reported to the officials to prevent unexpected changes."
Song Ci nodded and followed Zhen Dexiu into the palace.
Funing Hall, study room.
Zhao Yun sat on the dragon chair and listened to Song Ci tell the story.
Song Ci said: "Your Majesty, Gou Shijun's face is darkened. Although it is not obvious, there is no doubt that he has a gloomy feeling. I can see that his earlobes are solidified and excessively rigid. It is not like the divergent and weak state of ordinary people after death.
From these two points alone, I can conclude that there is a 90% chance that Gou Shijun will die from poisoning."
Zhao Yun had a fierce look in his eyes and was breathing heavily. He was obviously extremely angry.
Finally, Zhao Yun said bitterly: "Check it out for me. No matter who it is, as long as there is suspicion, the Qing family can arrest and interrogate it without going through anyone. I only have one request, let the truth be revealed to the world, and let the Gou Qing family die in peace."
.”
Seeing that Zhao Yun cared so much about his subject, Song Ci couldn't help but feel moved. He raised his hand solemnly and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. I am determined to find out the real culprit, clear up the whole story, and give an explanation to Gou Shijun."
Song Ci added: "Your Majesty, it is inevitable that we will need manpower when investigating the case. I would also like to ask your Majesty to assign a team of people to the front office of the palace for your dispatch."
"allow."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhen Dexiu and Song Ci left, and Zhao Yun still could not recover from his anger. If Gou Mengyu was really harmed, what was the purpose of the person who harmed him?
Is it because of the new law?
This seems unlikely. It should be noted that Gou Mengyu has always followed the trend of the new law and has no clear opinions of his own.
If there are powerful people who want to harm officials in the DPRK and China because of the new law, then the targets should be Chen Guiyi, Li Zongmian, and Chen Longzhi.
Zhao Yun frowned, unable to judge the purpose of the real murderer behind him. Zhao Yun felt that he could not control the situation. This feeling made Zhao Yun very uncomfortable.
"Gao Shi, please send an order to Xia You to strengthen the protection of Funing Palace. Also, mobilize manpower to strengthen the protection of the three Qing families of Chen Guiyi, Li Zongmian, and Chen Longzhi. Their residences must also be protected.
Patrolling day and night, no one is allowed to leave."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After Ming Gaoshi went to deliver the message, Zhao Yun felt a little calmer.
After adjusting his mood for a while, Zhao Yun picked up a memorial. This was the memorial for Zhou Cong, the official of the Ministry of Personnel, to impeach Chen Guiyi.
In the memorial, he accused Chen Guiyi of unrealistically implementing the new law, which caused the rise of tyrants in various places and the world was turbulent. In order to stabilize the world, Chen Guiyi should be killed to appease people's hearts and make the tyrants have no reason to cause chaos.
Zhao Yun had received dozens of such memorials before, but Zhao Yun was always more generous and did not care about them. However, this time Zhao Yun was in a bad mood, and Zhou Cong's memorial could be said to have hit the muzzle of the gun.
Zhao Yun directly wrote and reviewed: "This impeachment argument is unreasonable and unfounded. I am dismissed from the official position and handed over to the judge for the crime of slandering my colleagues."
Zhao Yun's mere words made Zhou Cong a prisoner. As long as Zhao Yun was in power, it was basically impossible for him to come back. It can be said that his whole life's destiny was changed.
However, Song Ci gained Zhao Yun's support and began to investigate the cause of Gou Mengyu's death.
He bid farewell to Zhen Dexiu, found Xia You, and led a team of people there to investigate.
The person Xia You lent to Song Ci was Zhang Bao, who assisted Song Ci in investigating the Jiaozi case last time. Zhang Bao and Song Ci were also acquaintances, so it was convenient for them to cooperate.
They came to Gou Mengyu's mansion, where there were still bursts of sorrow and joy, and endless crying. Many relatives and friends of Gou Mengyu came to express their condolences. Everyone's face was full of sadness, the scene was sad, and the atmosphere was depressing.
When Gou Mengyu's eldest son Gou Xiangzhi saw Song Ci leaving and returning, he wiped away his tears, held back his grief, and hurried forward to entertain him, fearing that he would lose his etiquette.
Song Ci whispered to Gou Xianzhi: "Master, please lend me a moment to speak."
Prime Minister Gou was stunned, and then he invited Song Ci to the study room, then raised his hand and said, "I wonder if you have anything to tell me?"
Song Ci said solemnly: "I have just looked at your father's remains and concluded that your father was murdered. Now I have asked the officials to find out why your father died. I have also asked you to bring back your relatives and friends.
This makes it easier to focus on investigating."
"What, you said my father was killed?"
Gou Xiangzhi was extremely surprised and said, "This is impossible. I asked the doctor to take a look. The doctor said that my father died suddenly in his sleep. There were no traces of murder. Could you be mistaken?"
Song Ci shook his head and said with a firm tone that left no doubt: "I have been investigating murder cases for many years. Many times, I don't need to see any flaws. I can still tell whether the deceased died normally or was murdered by the first impression.
Moreover, your father has the characteristics of being murdered, but the doctor did not notice it because doctors mostly treat living people, while I mostly deal with the dead and have specialization in the art, so it is normal that the doctor did not notice it."
After hearing this, Gou Xianzhi was filled with grief and anger. He lifted up his skirt, knelt on the ground, and cried to Song Ci: "If my father is really murdered, please be sure to find out the real culprit and give my father justice."
"Young Master, hurry up and get up. Don't worry, Young Master. I have already obtained the official order. Do you dare not pursue it with all your strength?"
Then Gou Xianzhi raised his hand and apologized to the relatives and friends who came to express their condolences, and said: "My envoys, I am truly sorry. There has been a sudden change in the house and it needs to be dealt with immediately. This is the end of my condolences for today. Please don't blame me."
Although everyone felt strange, they didn't say anything. They just comforted each other and said that if they needed help with anything, just ask, and then everyone left one by one.
After they left, Gou Mengyu gathered all the wives, concubines, and servants in the house together, waiting for questioning.
Song Ci looked serious and said loudly: "I am deeply saddened by the death of Gou Shijun. However, the death of Gou Shijun is very strange. I conclude that it was caused by someone's murder. Therefore, I want to find out the truth so that Gou Shijun can be killed."
Let you rest underground."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was extremely surprised. Gou Mengyu's wife Qian was in inexplicable grief and cried loudly, begging Song Ci to find out the truth and find the real culprit and cut him into pieces.
Song Ci comforted Qian with kind words. After her mood stabilized a little, Song Ci stood up straight and looked around at everyone with eyes like knives.
