Chapter 779: Zou Yun is dead

The black shadow disappeared into the street soon after hitting the person, but Zou Yun did not continue to walk. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

His hands were on his abdomen, his face full of disbelief, and in his abdomen, at this moment, a sharp blade with a bloodletting groove was inserted.

Drops of blood fell with the blood trough, and black blood infected half of his clothes.

Finally, someone noticed that something was wrong and yelled and took a few steps back.

The crowd gradually gathered, and many people began to point at Zou Yun, who was still standing.

Zou Yun covered the wound with both hands, his face was flushed, and there were green tendons bulging on his neck. After stumbling a few steps, he felt dizzy, his mouth was dry, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his body fell to the ground with a bang.

The sharp-eyed man recognized Zou Yun's identity and shouted, "Oh no, Lord Tongzhi has been killed." ”

The news spread like a fire, after all, it was something that happened on a busy street. It's just that none of the so-called eyewitnesses know who did it.

Fan Tong was the fastest to arrive across the street, he reached out to probe Zou Yun's breathing, and then touched the location of the major artery in his neck, and finally shook his head.

The blood coming out of the wound was black, and there were only two possibilities, either it had punctured the internal organs, or it was poisoned on the dagger.

The dagger was a very ordinary dagger, the kind of thing that the blacksmith shop made in batches, but after being processed, there were two more deep blood grooves.

Moreover, the dagger on Zou Yun's body was also fed with poison, and the kidneys were punctured, so when he arrived, Zou Yun was already dead and couldn't die anymore.

The second group of people who dared to come were the people from the Yamen of the Hangzhou Prefect, and the leader was the head catcher of the Hangzhou Mansion, a short and sturdy man who looked inconspicuous.

After doing the same as Fan Tong, the head catcher also shook his head.

Immediately, his brow furrowed.

He didn't flip the things on Zou Yun's body, but his subordinates did, and after seeing a small bundle of silver tickets in Zou Yun's arms, the head catcher fell into deep thought.

A fellow acquaintance walked on the ground in Hangzhou, carrying a silver ticket with a face value of up to 1,000 taels in his arms, although there were only a few, but he had to make the head catcher want to go deeper.

When the third group of people came, he had already done everything that should be done, wrote a few words on the paper and handed them to Wu Shouai and others, and in a few words, he wrote down the reason for Zou Yun's death.

"Highly poisonous, internal organs are damaged, and you will die immediately!"

Wu Shouhui's face changed drastically: "Who can tell this official, what the hell is going on?" ”

No one could give him a satisfactory answer, because everyone, including the head catcher, didn't know who killed Zou Yun.

After Wu Shouwei vented his anger on the street, Zhang Ru came.

This time, he was a light car, and the people he brought were only Xiao Anu and Meng Fu.

Seeing Zhang Ru, Fan Tong greeted him: "Boss, I..."

Zhang Ru patted Fan Tong's shoulder comfortingly, and said softly: "I can't blame you for this, there is no need to blame yourself." ”

Seeing this scene, Wu Shouwei's heart beat wildly, and he was secretly glad that he was not deceived.

Zou Yun is dead, and the plan can't continue, and Fan Tong and Fortunately, he doesn't care about exposing their relationship with each other.

"How's it going?" Zhang Ru walked into the encirclement and asked him.

Wu Shouhui and others saluted one after another: "The lower officials see Dingguo Gong." ”

Even the political envoy had to bow down and salute, but this servant naturally did not dare to slack off, and immediately replied: "Back to the grandfather, there is a wound in the abdomen, no tear, no traces of a fight, and he should have been killed while walking." The knife is highly poisonous, and I don't know what kind of poison it is for the time being, but it is extremely strong, and it only takes a few breaths to kill people.

Lord Zou has a thousand taels of Daming treasure money in his arms, and depending on the degree of loosening of his clothes, the killer should have taken away the things in his arms after the killing. ”

Zhang Ru nodded and glanced at Meng Fu.

In terms of torture and investigation, the Hangzhou government's work is only afraid that it is not as good as the professionals of Jinyiwei.

After a while, Meng Fu returned to Zhang Ru and whispered his calculations, the content was basically not much different from what he said, but it was more detailed than what he said.

"Check!"

As soon as Zou Yun died, the Zhejiang officialdom that could have found a breakthrough became monolithic again, and it was not so easy to find a suitable breakthrough again.

Judging from the looks of Wu Shouai and others, the other party does not seem to be the mastermind behind the scenes, if this is really the case, then there should be a bigger conspiracy waiting for him behind this.

Hangzhou Mansion Tongzhi was assassinated on the street, such a major event naturally had to be reported to the imperial court, Wu Shouhui took this opportunity to complain about Zhang Ru in the twists and turns.

Between the words, he even blamed Zhang Ru for Zou Yun's death.

However, Zhang Ru didn't look at the twists, so he naturally didn't know that Wu Shouhui was secretly stumbling on himself, even if he knew, he wouldn't be too angry.

He wants Wu Shouhui's head to shock the officialdom in Jiangnan, and it is normal for people to chirp crookedly in the middle of the play.

Meng Fu personally led the team to inspect, and first found the source of the silver ticket, but fortunately, this silver ticket is brand new, and it belongs to the newly exchanged silver ticket of Wenxuan. Otherwise, in the absence of a ticket number, in the vast sea of people, not to mention Meng Fu, even the entire Jinyi Wei Qin Dynasty came out, and they may not be able to find clues.

Enter the Wenxuan Silver Vault to check the silver deposits, because Zou Yun asked his subordinates to exchange silver for treasure banknotes in batches.

There was no trace of the silver deposit, but Meng Fu summed up a few clues.

Under a pile of neatly stacked silver ingots, he saw a red silk thread, and this batch of silver ingots was one of the batches that Zou Yun asked him to exchange.

Fortunately, there were not many people who exchanged a large amount of treasure money that day, so Meng Fu was able to find some clues. If there are three or five people to exchange treasure money, it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to determine.

This red silk thread made all the silk merchants in Hangzhou unlucky, as long as there were some powerful merchants, all of them were invited to drink tea by the hundreds of households in Hangzhou Jinyiwei.

After checking one by one, Meng Fu handed in an answer sheet that satisfied Zhang Ru on the fifth day.

Xiao Mantang, a silk merchant in Hangzhou, before the sea ban was opened, some of the silk he handled was directly supplied to the capital.

Among all the silk merchants in Hangzhou Prefecture, except for some merchants who supported the nobles behind him, he was one of the best figures.

Xiao Mantang, who was emaciated, didn't struggle too much after Jinyiwei came to the door, and told Zou Yun about asking him for money.

Jin Yiwei is omnipotent, he doesn't think he can hide these things, so he simply says them all to prove his innocence. (To be continued.) )
