Chapter 421 Old Six
These three words, Cheng Guogong, successfully caused several other people in the room to exchange glances with each other.
Wang Jin told Zhou Huaishan that Su Heng, Zhao Dacheng and others had always regarded the investigation of Cheng Guogong as a breakthrough.
And got some evidence from the Chengguo Government.
It's just that the evidence was obtained too easily, which made Su Heng wary, and all investigations were temporarily put on hold.
Of course, Shen Li also told Zhou Qing about this.
"On the morning of the first seven days, my wife and the masters stayed at the mourning hall, and I followed the steward to greet the guests who came to express their condolences.
Marquis Lide said that Duke Wang had brought his little baby, who was about the same age as Brother Jin at that time. He asked me to find the wet nurse who took Brother Jin to hold the little baby. The little baby was so hungry that he cried and howled.
When I went to look for the nanny, I happened to meet Duke Cheng Guo coming out of the inner courtyard. When he saw me, he grabbed me and asked me, "How come the heat stroke is gone after the marquis is fine? Did he disappear after returning home or did he disappear in the back mountain? , what was the reaction at that time, I asked a lot of questions.
Because at that time, I went to catch crickets for him. A good person would be gone if he caught crickets. I was so angry that I yelled at him a few words, but Cheng Guogong left without saying anything at that time.
I thought it was because he felt uncomfortable because of my scolding, and I blamed myself for a while. When I called the wet nurse to return to the mourning hall, I saw Duke Cheng sneaking towards the inner courtyard again.
At that time, I was surprised that although the house was in chaos at that time, why did he, a foreigner, always go to the inner courtyard, so I followed him.
When I went there, he was talking to someone. Because the location was hidden, I didn't see who he was talking to, but I heard him ask the person.
Didn’t you say it was just a medicine for diarrhea? What on earth did you give me? Was Rongyang Marquis poisoned by the medicine you gave me?
I didn't hear what the man said, and then they spotted me.
When I heard this, my mind immediately went blank, and my first reaction was to step forward and ask.
But Cheng Guogong reacted faster than me. He turned around and stopped me. While I was struggling with him, the person I was talking to disappeared.
I asked him what he meant by what he just said, and he said that he was jealous of our grandfather's cricket skills. He was unconvinced after losing several games and wanted to teach our grandfather a lesson. He begged our grandfather to catch him a good cricket. , but he took some medicine that caused diarrhea on that piece of grass in advance. "
Speaking of this, Shunzi gritted his teeth and stared angrily.
Wang Jin frowned and looked at him, "You just believe it?"
Shunzi blurted out: "I don't believe him!"
I didn't feel at all that there was anything wrong with talking to the young master like this.
"Although I didn't say anything at the time, I turned around and went to find my wife and tell her exactly what happened."
Shunzi said, looking towards Zhou Huaishan, his anger could not hide his eyes begging for praise.
Zhou Huaishan looked at him for a while, then nodded lightly, "You did a good job."
Shunzi then said: "After listening to my words, Madam asked me not to disturb anyone at that time, and to go to the back mountain quickly when no one was paying attention to see what else I could find. In addition, she asked me to catch crickets at that time. Bring some soil and grass back to the location.
After she ordered me, I listened to her greeting Aunt Li. I guess she was looking for the person who was talking to Duke Cheng Guo. "
Aunt Li is Mrs. Rongyanghou's personal nanny, and she accompanies Mrs. Rongyanghou to control all matters in the house.
"I went to the back mountain and searched carefully according to my wife's instructions, but found nothing. By the time I took the soil and grass back, it was already evening.
My wife invited a familiar doctor to come over. In front of me, the doctor inspected the grass and soil.
The doctor said that it was mixed with a poison called Zhihong, and the poison was emitted through the smell.
If you inhale a large amount, you will die immediately.
If the amount inhaled is small, the whole body will be covered with poisonous rash, but it is not fatal. After three days, a high fever will occur, and the poisonous rash will disappear after the high fever. "
"Do you have a high fever?" Zhou Huaishan asked.
Shunzi said: "I had a poisonous rash, and I should have a high fever, but the house was in such a mess at that time that I didn't even notice whether I had a fever. At that time, I felt uncomfortable in my heart and body. Who would have thought that it was a fever? Uncomfortable."
That's true.
People's hearts are so uncomfortable that they can't find an extra nerve to take care of their physical discomfort.
"Madam asked me not to say anything about this matter. She has her own arrangements. It's my first day that day, but I can't think of it."
Speaking of this, Shunzi's voice paused, and he looked at Zhou Huaishan with emotions rolling in his eyes.
Who would have imagined that in just one night, the whole family was dead!
"Later, you didn't go to see Duke Cheng again?" Shen Li asked.
"I'm going, how could I not go!" Emotionally, Shunzi waved his clenched fists, with clear veins on the back of his hands, "But that bastard, I went to look for him with my front legs, and he asked people to catch me with my back legs. .
I went to his house, and he met me, but he didn't answer my questions directly at all. He talked about him for a long time, just to drag me down.
If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have died in the Duke Cheng's Mansion.
Later, when I ran out, he sent countless people to look for me.
Old bastard!
In the first few years, I always looked for opportunities to kill him, but then I realized that I had other things to do than kill him. "
Zhou Huaishan raised his eyebrows lightly.
The Huaishan Gang back then included him, Marquis Lide, Marquis Qingyang, Uncle Yunqing, Duke Chengguo, Duke Wangguo, old monks from the Great Buddha Temple, and many others who have disappeared.
Duke Cheng is the only one among them who is not completely ignorant.
Duke Cheng is knowledgeable in pharmacology.
And he has a high level of attainment.
But almost no one knows his ability.
He knew it because Duke Cheng was drunk and let it slip at a drinking party.
How could a person who is knowledgeable in pharmacology not be able to judge what the medicine he got was?
Zhou Huaishan looked at Shunzi quietly, waiting for his next words.
Wang Jin widened his eyes and looked at Shunzi without blinking, "What's the matter?"
"I saw the Sixth Young Master."
This sentence was like a bomb thrown directly into the room.
It exploded everyone with a bang.
"Sixth Master?" Zhou Huaishan stood up and took a step forward, with hot light in his eyes.
Wang Jin almost jumped directly to Shunzi, "Sixth brother?"
Zhou Qing's nose was sore, and he covered his chest, "Sixth brother?"
Shen Li frowned, his voice trembling a little, "Zhou Yiheng?"
Su Heng was the seventh son of Zhou Huaishan, originally named Zhou Heng, and the older one was the Sixth Young Master Zhou Yiheng. It was rare for the two brothers to have the same character in their names.
The reason was simple. Zhou Yiheng's original name was Zhou Yi. After having a seventh brother, he was jealous of the word Heng in his seventh brother's name, so he had to change his name.
Zhou Yi became Zhou Yiheng.
Shunzi licked his lips, his eyes swept across all the people in the room, and finally looked at Zhou Huaishan, nodding, "When I was being chased by Cheng Guogong's people, I saw him at the door of an antique shop on Gulou Street. Although I only had a quick glance at that time, I was sure that it was the Sixth Young Master!"
