Chapter 81 Gu Yu, do you have to fight against me?
Su Zhongfu saw that something important had happened that was not convenient for him to know, so he nodded knowingly and watched her leave.
Gu Yu felt the wind at his feet and passed through the crowd.
The Holy One is still waiting for the talk to leave his name in history, and he will never allow the death of a child to be stained. If it gets too big, no one will be left behind.
Zheng Daru is already very old. If he knew the news of his grandson's death, he would probably faint in front of everyone, and the news would not be covered up even if he wanted to.
After the clerk saw that Zheng Yuanlang was dead, he hurried over to notify Zheng Daru. When he was about to reach Zheng Daru, he put a hand on his shoulder.
Looking back, Prince Gu looked at him solemnly and said, "Let's go."
In desperation, she almost dragged the clerk out of the crowd.
When I arrived at a place with few people, I asked as I walked: "What's going on?"
The clerk said: "When I passed by the back room, I saw blood on a door. When I opened the door, I saw that Young Master Zheng was dead inside."
Gu Yu's breathing became rapid. Not long ago, she was holding Zheng Yuanlang's hand and listening to his sweet voice talking. How could she die like this?
When she was about to reach the back room, she hesitated and said, "Who has seen the body of Young Master Zheng?"
A junior official lowered his head and said: "He, I, and two other brothers from the official department, one of them guarded the wing, and the other went to find King Xiaoyao."
Gu Yu's heart skipped a beat and she asked anxiously: "What are you looking for for him?"
The clerk who spoke lowered his head.
She let out a heavy breath and said, forget it, they are not to blame. Today, the person with the highest status in the symposium is King Xiaoyao, who wants to give a notice.
She glanced at the two clerks behind her. They had interacted with her a lot in the official office.
So he said: "Don't go there. If you want to survive, don't say a word to anyone else, and don't let anyone know that you know about it. In addition, go to the Ministry of Punishment and invite a prisoner to come over. Don't make it too clear. Please invite him first and then talk about it."
The two minor officials knew that Gu Shizi was doing it for their own good, so they gave her their hands and assured her, "Yes, I will definitely keep it secret."
Gu Yu walked over alone, and when he reached the door, he found that King Xiaoyao also had a solemn look on his face, and there were two petty officials standing next to him.
When her eyes met with Junze's, she suddenly felt a sense of danger.
After winking at the two minor officials, one of them silently withdrew.
Another petty official named Sun Qi did not leave. Instead, he knelt down and said, "This subordinate is guilty."
Junze was immediately displeased. When he was here, this man didn't say a word. Gu Yu asked for forgiveness as soon as he came, and even before he joined the official department, he conquered him wholeheartedly.
Just listen to Sun Qi say: "I was just standing guard here when I heard a noise coming from the window. When I leaned over to look, someone rushed out of the room and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The body of Young Master Zheng is here.
The subordinates dare not leave without permission."
He raised his head and took a careful look at King Xiaoyao, and said: "Looking at the figure, he is a child."
Junze's face suddenly felt like ice shards were hanging on it: "What do you mean?"
Gu Yu stood in front of Sun Qi and looked directly at Junze.
Zheng Yuanlang is Zheng Daru's direct grandson. If anyone among the children born today has a problem with Zheng Daru, it must be the fifth prince.
Moreover, the fifth prince has a reputation for being violent, so it is not surprising that he is suspected.
The aura on Junze's body had dropped to freezing point. He looked at Gu Yu and said, "Prince Gu, you don't have to get involved before you have an official status."
Gu Yu said solemnly: "Although I don't have an official status, Young Master Zheng is the sixth prince's companion. I should help you investigate."
Junze gritted his teeth and said, "Gu Yu, do you have to go against me?"
Gu Yu did not lose his momentum and said: "I don't dare to be humble, but there are not many children here today. If you ask a little bit, there will definitely be clues."
Ignoring his cannibalistic look, Gu Yu asked Sun Qi: "In other words, when you found the body of Young Master Zheng, the murderer was in the room."
Sun Qi said: "Yes."
Gu Yu stepped through the door and saw a broken Jun porcelain vase on the ground. Zheng Yuanlang was lying on the table with a piece of rice paper under his face and a writing brush at hand. He must have been writing something before he died.
She walked over and touched Zheng Yuanlang's body. It was still warm. It seemed that he had just died.
She carefully raised Zheng Yuanlang's head. This young and mature child had a ferocious face, his eyes were closed, and his slightly open mouth contained a cavity of blood.
A slender, sharp piece of porcelain was inserted into his throat, blood soaked through his clothes, and his fair face was stained with blood.
Stinging throat.
This method of death was too cruel, and Gu Yu felt a little blocked.
What kind of hatred or resentment could lead to such a murderous attack on a child?
Gu Yu took out the piece of rice paper under him. Although it was soaked in blood and the ink was smudged, it could be vaguely discerned that it read:
"I report to Your Majesty that the common people have a grievance to complain about and were beaten and scolded by the fifth prince in Yudu Mountain today."
The writing style is immature and green, but very neat.
The rest of the words ended abruptly. It should have been at this point that he was killed from behind.
Gu Yu raised his head and glanced at King Xiaoyao, his eyes slightly cold.
Junze came over and saw this line of writing. He didn't know what he was thinking, and his face was terrifyingly gloomy.
Gu Yu looked around the room and confirmed the information with Sun Qi: "When you found out, there was blood at the door and the door was closed. The three of them went to find someone. You are here to guard. If you hear something moving outside the window, you lie down.
Go over and look, there's another person running out of the room, right?"
Sun Qi said: "Yes."
Gu Yu said to Junze: "Your Majesty, it seems that the murderer is most likely two people. One person ran out first, and the other stayed behind for some reason. Someone came, opened the door, and the one who stayed here took the opportunity to run away.
Get out."
After she finished speaking, Junze realized something was wrong with her.
Secret room murder.
It's not exactly a secret room.
Since one person can run out, why doesn't the other person follow him out instead of staying at the risk of being discovered?
Is it to confirm whether Zheng Yuanlang can die?
This isn't right either.
With that thin dagger stuck in his throat, there was no chance of him surviving. There was absolutely no need for the murderer to stay here to confirm.
Junze walked to the window. There was a small hole in the screen covering the window lattice. Outside, the trees were silent and there was nothing unusual.
Gu Yu followed and looked at it: "It looks like it was made by pebbles."
Junze said: "Slingshot."
When he was a child, he often used a slingshot to kill sparrows.
The bad thing is that he taught the fifth prince how to use the slingshot step by step, basically pointing where to hit.
Looking down at the ground again, there were a few scattered pebbles, and it was impossible to tell which ones had been brought in from outside.
Gu Yu walked around the room with a cold face.
The Temple of Confucius is very prosperous, and every spring and autumn, students will come to pay homage.
So an enclosure was built behind the temple for students to rest.
It's clean and tidy inside, with few decorations and almost no room for hiding people.
