Chapter 107: The People in the Palace

In the moat to the east of the city, another man drowned.

When Zhang Tong arrived with Tie Wan, the person had already been fished up, covered with a clean white cloth, and the catchers formed a circle to isolate the people around him.

It was a man who died.

After soaking in the moat for several days, his entire body, including his face, was swollen and swelled, and he couldn't tell the true face of this person, and the clothes he was wearing were just a thin single coat.

Zhang Tong frowned.

On such a cold day, I don't know when it will snow, and I still wear such a thin outfit to go out.

It's weird.

Putting down the autopsy box, Zhang Tong squatted next to the corpse, gently lifted the corner of the white cloth covering the corpse, and only heard the whispers of the people who were stopped outside.

He glanced back at the periphery, and saw that the startled people had covered their mouths, and some people made a gesture to block their eyes, peeking through the cracks in their hands, and some people seemed to be frightened, took a few steps back, turned around and ran quickly.

Zhang Tong waved his hand to greet Tie Wan, who was standing on the side, pointed to the few people who had just turned around and ran, and said softly: "If you see those people, find some time to check them one by one." ”

Tie Wan looked over, although he couldn't see the faces of those people, but based on the clothes on their bodies, as well as the familiarity with the people of Fan County who had been patrolling the city all year round, Tie Wan could almost tell who those people were.

So, he nodded in response.

Because the corpses were terrifying, those people who were still gathered around to see the excitement only glanced at it, and they all retreated further.

They threw up.

Subsequently, there were fewer and fewer people.

Zhang Tong breathed a sigh of relief and carefully examined the corpse.

Because the deceased was only wearing a single coat, there was nothing on his body that could prove his identity, let alone gold and silver jewelry, and he did not even wear an ordinary pendant around his neck.

There was a wound in the chest, which should have been caused by a dagger, and it was pierced directly.

Zhang Tong wore gloves, carefully observed the wound on the deceased's chest, frowned, he took out a slender chopstick-like thing from the autopsy box, slowly pierced it from the top of the wound, and it didn't take long for it to slowly pull it out.

The wound was deep and straight.

It takes a lot of strength to pierce and then pull out, and it is unlikely that a weak woman can do this step, and if she is a person who practices martial arts, it is difficult to say.

Zhang Tong stood up, clapped his hands, pointed and said, "Carry it back first." ”

"Checked?" Tie Wan came over.

Zhang Tong shook his head: "Where is it so fast?" Carry it back first, I have to dissect it, you take people to search this moat, as well as the surrounding environment and people, to see if there are any clues. ”

"Okay."

In these days without Guan Chu's presence, Tie Wan, who often gags, suddenly seemed to be able to take charge on his own.

Zhang Tong looked at him, put his arm on his shoulder before leaving, and said, "Guan Zhutou is not here, thank you for your hard work." ”

"It's a matter of duty." Tie Wan smiled, his eyes were already small, but now he could only see a slit.

Here, it's very busy.

On the other side, inside the Zhang Mansion, Yun Sheng woke up.

When he saw her open her eyes, Zhang Jiusheng was so happy that he wanted to kneel down and thank God for his mercy.

"Yunsheng, how do you feel?" Zhang Jiusheng lay on the side of the bed, staring at Yunsheng, whose gaze slowly changed from sluggish to energetic.

Yun Sheng took a deep breath, turned his head to look at Zhang Jiusheng, and said softly: "I want to drink water." ”

Zhang Jiusheng quickly got up from the ground, almost in a running posture, handed the tea to Yun Sheng's mouth, and still instructed: "You just woke up, you haven't eaten much, moisten your throat first, don't drink too much." ”

Yun Sheng nodded, looking well-behaved, and he really just took a small sip.

"I'll go and tell my subordinates to drink some millet porridge first to nourish their stomach." Zhang Jiusheng whispered, subconsciously touching her forehead, making Yun Sheng think that she was suffering from the cold.

Zhang Jiusheng only left for a while, and then came back immediately.

He was worried.

He didn't want Yun Sheng to leave his sight for a minute.

"Come soon, and wait a minute." Zhang Jiusheng tucked the corners of the quilt.

"What's wrong with me?" Yun Sheng asked suddenly.

Zhang Jiusheng was stunned.

Then he rolled his eyes, pulled out a smile, and said: "You are suffering from the wind and cold, you are weak, and you are running outside all day long, I can't stand the weather, let alone you?" Honest this time, right? ”

Yun Sheng smiled, stretched out his hand from the quilt, and gently tugged at the corner of Zhang Jiusheng's clothes: "Don't be angry, I won't run around in the future." ”

"That's right."

Yun Sheng woke up, completely forgetting what had happened to her these days, and completely forgetting that she was struggling with the nightmare.

She believed Zhang Jiusheng's words, but she felt that she had a cold, take some medicine, and sleep well, and she would be the same as before.

But Zhang Jiusheng's heart seemed to be tied to a boulder, sinking little by little.

When the person pushed the door into the house with the hot rice porridge, Zhang Jiusheng carefully helped Yun Sheng up, took a pillow from the side and put it behind her, so that she could lean comfortably.

After serving the rice porridge, Zhang Jiusheng blew lightly and sent it to Yun Sheng's lips: "Be careful of scalding." ”

Just when he was feeding one bite at a time, Zhang Qiye came.

When Zhang Jiusheng went out, he had already asked a subordinate to go to Baishitang to inform Zhang Qiye that Yun Sheng had woken up.

Zhang Qiye came very quickly because of this.

"How does it feel?" This was the first thing he said when he saw Yun Sheng.

Yun Sheng slowly raised her head, her whole body moved very slowly, like an old man over 100 years old.

"It feels tired, like a fight."

Zhang Qiye looked at her, sat on the edge of the bed, his fingers were slightly cool, and gently probed Yun Sheng's wrist.

His expression was slightly restrained, his eyes were lowered, Yun Sheng couldn't see any emotions in him, and Zhang Jiusheng was almost snorting, they were all waiting for Zhang Qiye to give an acceptable answer.

Withdrawing his hand, Zhang Qiye tucked the corners of the quilt for Yun Sheng, with no expression on his face.

"Your body is still very weak and needs to rest well, but it's okay, haven't you been sleeping well lately?" Zhang Qiye tried his best to choose a more euphemistic word, but saw Yun Sheng frowning slightly, as if he was in a state of confusion.

Seeing her like this, Zhang Qiye's heart gradually sank.

"I seem to ...... I don't remember exactly, but I should have slept okay. ”

"Okay, I'll prescribe some medicine for you, you can rest." Zhang Qiye said and got up.

Zhang Jiusheng was not at ease and went out after Zhang Qiye, while Yun Sheng fell asleep in a daze.

"Brother!"

Zhang Jiusheng caught up with Zhang Qiye outside the door and grabbed his arm.

"Is there a problem?" Zhang Jiusheng couldn't wait.

Zhang Qiye put his hand on the back of his hand and said, "Isn't it a big problem, haven't you found it?" Yunsheng began to forget. ”

"What do you mean?"

Zhang Jiusheng's question really didn't know how to answer, Zhang Qiye shook his head, and finally left.

The weather was very cold, but it was not as cold as Zhang Jiusheng's heart at this time.

He thought that he could protect Yun Sheng very well, but he unknowingly hurt Yun Sheng.

She was already poisonous in her body, and now she is poisoned even more.

"I'm such a piece of shit." Zhang Jiusheng's legs could barely support him.

Zhang Qiye was not happy either, he ran back to Baishitang, and plunged into the pile of medical books, until the medicine boy brought dinner to the door, he realized that he had not eaten for a day.

He threw down the medical book and lay down on the pile of books in a large shape, looking at the roof.

Zhang Qiye has studied medicine for decades and has never been exposed to this poison, or rather, his knowledge is still too short.

He wanted to go out again.

This thought, like a goshawk circling, lingers.

"Young Master, someone is looking for you." A medicine boy stood outside the door and knocked lightly on the door frame, making a low sound.

Zhang Qiye suddenly got up from the pile of books and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"A girl."

Zhang Qiye frowned and thought about it, he didn't seem to have any dealings with any girl, except for Yun Sheng, who else could come to the door at this time?

According to the tone of the medicine boy, he doesn't look like a patient.

Suddenly, Zhang Qiye thought of someone.

Girl?

And it does.

"Please let her in." Zhang Qiye straightened his messy clothes and grabbed his scattered hair with his hands, and his image was acceptable.

Sure enough, it was no clothes that entered the door.

"Thank you." Wuyi turned his head to thank the medicine boy, then turned his head to look at Zhang Qiye again, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: "The eldest young master is in trouble." ”

"Laughing." Zhang Qiye glanced at the messy medical books piled up in the room, quickly packed up a chair, and said, "Please sit down, I don't know what happened to the girl today?" Still is...... The previous thing has come to an end. ”

"I'm here today for two things, one is the previous list, I can confirm that what is written on it is true, but it is more troublesome to collect evidence, and my people still need a little time."

"Okay, so what about the other thing?"

"Another thing, I heard that Yun is sick." Wuyi's expression was firm, and Zhang Qiye originally wanted to hide it, but seeing that she didn't use the question sentence, she knew that she already knew, so she didn't say anything more, and only nodded.

Looking at the medical books in one place, Wuyi said: "Yunsheng's illness, I can't help much, but there is a clue that can be provided to the eldest young master." ”

"You say."

"In the past, when the red bean was still there, he told me that there was a poison in the harem, called the beauty dream, and those who were poisoned by this poison were panicked all day long, and they were in a bad dream, and they would slowly have memory loss, slow reactions, and finally people could go crazy and die, which was originally used by the concubines in the harem to fight."

Zhang Qiye frowned and looked at Wuyi.

Who told her that Yun Sheng had these symptoms?

Zhang Fu had already blocked the news from the outside world, only saying that Yun Sheng had a cold and was bedridden.

Zhang Qiye was silent, and his expression became more and more solemn.

Wuyi seemed to see through Zhang Qiye's thoughts, and said: "Young Master, don't worry, I will naturally not harm Yunsheng, but I have been in Fan County for so many years, so I naturally have some sources, and I will not have any disadvantage to Zhangfu and Yunsheng." ”

"Okay, I believe you, what is the solution to this beauty dream?" Since they said so, Zhang Qiye also suppressed his suspicions in his heart for the time being, and instead asked for clues about this poison.

"Red Bean didn't tell me. But I think that since it is poisonous, there is naturally a solution, and what comes out of the palace, then find someone in the palace. ”

The capital, thousands of miles away.
