Chapter 91: How Many Secrets Are Left
Shu Gao's words were like a thunderbolt, exploding in the room.
Everyone's eyes looked at him, especially Meng Yi, who had a deep pride in his eyes, and glanced at Zhang Han.
He involuntarily puffed up his chest, looked at Shu Gao, and asked, "Where have you seen it?" ”
Shu Gao looked at the painting in front of him, and carefully confirmed it before saying: "When I was patrolling the west of the city with the lieutenant army, there was a panicked boy who ran out of nowhere and almost hit his subordinates, so he was more impressed. ”
"But his face is really too inconspicuous, and his subordinates didn't take it to heart, seeing that he just didn't have any threat from his feet, they let him leave."
"Looking back now, when I met the lieutenant army, his expression was also very calm, not at all like the panicked look of ordinary people, which is very suspicious."
"West of the city?" Meng Yi accurately grasped the key point in Shu Gao's words, he has been tracking down the matter of Zhang Zifang in the past few days, if he remembers well, the wine shop in Zhang Zifang is in the west of the city.
"Is there a liquor store over there?"
Hearing him say this, the rest of the people also reacted, especially Gu Zongmin's heart moved, could it be that the assassin really had something to do with Zhang Zifang?
What if Ran Fang knew about it and suspected him?
He was the most nervous person now, turned his head to look at Zhang Han, and quickly explained: "I really don't know about this matter, that person came to me suddenly, I just investigated, he is the owner of the wine shop, I will tell Mr. Ran directly." ”
"I don't see it at all, he will be bad for Mr., if I knew that I would never bring people to Sir!"
Zhang Han seemed calm, did not express his opinion directly, and did not say whether he doubted Gu Zongmin.
He stroked his beard a few times with his right index finger and looked at Shu Gao, "Are you sure?" Just in the west of the city? ”
"Are there any other discoveries besides what you just said?"
"This officer believes that if you can do things under General Meng, you must have something extraordinary, and it is impossible not to find anything."
"Think about it, is there anything that has been overlooked?"
Being praised by him like this, Shu Gao's face was obviously a little happy, but when he received Meng Yi's murderous eyes, he restrained his smile again.
However, his mind was seriously recalling, what happened that day?
What else did he miss?
After looking down and thinking for a moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Zongmin with a sharp look, "I saw you that day!" ”
"Just as I met that person, I saw you come out of a salt shop and greeted the boss very politely."
"He seems to have been looking at you, and when you suddenly turned his gaze, the man hit me in a panic, and when I helped him up, his eyes kept staring at you, and there was deep hatred in his eyes."
"And that shop should not be far from that liquor store."
"At that time...... There seems to be a very handsome middle-aged man standing at the door of the wine shop, and his eyes are also looking in the direction of you, as for the rest, I really can't remember. ”
No one thought that this series of things would finally return to Gu Zongmin.
Everyone's eyes turned to him again, and everyone stared at Gu Zongmin, as if waiting for his answer.
Gu Zongmin listened to Shu Gao's words, this time he didn't have the slightest panic on his face, nor was he annoyed and angry by Shu Gao's accusation, but he was thinking about it seriously.
"How so?"
"Have I seen it?"
"Could it be that my Gu family robbed him of his business?"
But he wanted to break his head, and he didn't remember, when had he seen this person?
When did you make a feud with him?
In the end, Yang Suke, who was still sitting there, couldn't stand it anymore, and couldn't help but say loudly: "This person's face looks particularly easy to forget, if you see it by chance, presumably the head of the Gu family will not remember it at all." ”
"Why don't you think about it, has anything special happened lately?"
Gu Zongmin still shook his head, and said with some embarrassment: "There are too many people and things I come into contact with every time, it's really hard to remember, it's better to go to the west of the city to investigate first, I'll think about it, and if I think of something, I will immediately notify the two adults." ”
Seeing that he really couldn't remember, Meng Yi was a little disappointed, and angrily wanted to arrest him and torture him severely.
However, when he touched Zhang Han's gaze, he forcibly suppressed this idea, so that he would not leave a handle for Zhang Han and let him go to His Majesty to mistreat him.
"Since this is the case, then please think more about the head of the Gu family, and the official will go to the west of the city to investigate first."
"However, I still have to say that it is best to have nothing to do with the Gu family master, otherwise it is useless for anyone to intercede!"
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left with his subordinates.
Seeing this, Zhang Han also got up from the couch, took a deep look at Gu Zongmin, nodded at him, and left without saying anything.
Gu Zongmin hurriedly stood up and bowed down to see the two adults leave, the expression on his face was very humble, but it made it impossible to see his inner thoughts.
After they left, Yang Jie looked at Gu Zongmin and smiled, "Gu family master, you are really loyal." ”
With that, he left as if nothing had happened.
In the end, only Gu Zongmin was left to sit there, not knowing what he was thinking.
……
The matter has not been resolved, and a bunch of other things have been involved, and Meng Yi feels that he has two big heads now.
It has been several days since he was ordered to arrest Zhang Liang, but he has not made even any progress, and this matter must be known to His Majesty and let His Majesty make a decision.
He took all the evidence he had investigated in the past few days, put it together, wrote it on paper, and respectfully carried it into the palace.
When he was about to walk to Zhangtai Palace, he didn't expect to meet Zhao Gao, which made him a little surprised.
Zhao Gao looked calm, as if he was sure that Meng Yi would enter the palace at this moment and wait for him here.
"Lord Montene."
After all, Zhao Gao is also a celebrity beside His Majesty, although Meng Yi looks down on him, he will not easily brush his face.
Standing there, Meng Yi put the things in his hand behind him and nodded slightly towards Zhao Gao as a greeting.
"This official is going to see His Majesty, and I can't greet my father-in-law, I hope my father-in-law will forgive me."
As he spoke, he was about to cross Zhao Gao and leave.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Gao didn't seem to intend to let Meng Yi go, and his body turned to the side slightly, but he got closer to Meng Yi.
"Don't worry, Lord Meng."
"Your Majesty is dealing with the chapter at the moment, I'm afraid I don't have time to see Lord Meng, why don't you talk here, how about it?"
Meng Yi, who was a little anxious, was a little anxious, but when he heard Zhao Gao's words, his heart was a lot calmer, he wanted to see what kind of medicine Zhao Gao Hulu was selling?
You must know that although Zhao Gao is only a eunuch, he has a high right to speak in front of His Majesty, and many people in the court are stammering him.
It is also rare to let Zhao Gao personally stop him from talking.
"I wonder what's going on with my father-in-law?"
"Hahaha, nothing."
Although Zhao Gao had a smile on his face, as if he really had nothing to do, but when he looked closely, his smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.
After laughing a few times, he put away the smile on his lips and took the initiative to speak: "I heard that Lord Meng has been very busy these days, and now he has come to His Majesty to ask for peace in person, the old slave really admires Lord Meng's loyalty." ”
"Your Majesty has been worrying too much recently, and his health is not as good as before, I hope that your Excellency should be careful when you speak, and don't anger Your Majesty anymore."
