41: The trail is interrupted, and the clouds are thick.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang thought a lot.

The most important thing is Zhou Kui's identity, and what Zhu Gaoxian said before, this person has embezzled at least 100,000 taels.

And this is not to be added to the quantity of gold and silver treasures.

But this man died at a critical juncture, and there must be a conspiracy inside.

"Gao Xian. Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said, "Have you talked to this person before?"

Zhu Gaoxian nodded and said: "I have talked, this person is already ready to hand over the money, but he is dead at this moment, it is indeed strange ......."

Zhu Gaoxian naturally knew the inside story, and it must be Chen Yan's people who thought that Zhou Kui was not going to participate in the meeting and killed this person.

In this regard, Fan Guang came to report in the afternoon, and a housekeeper in the Zhou Mansion quietly went out.

It's just that Zhu Gaoxian didn't expect that these people started so quickly and with such vicious intentions, they directly put people to death.

"This is provoking the majesty of the royal family!" Zhu Di snorted coldly: "What a good Ming Jiadingbo and the emperor of the dynasty died violently at home, there must be some secret in it!".

Zhu Youzhen sat down with a pale face, Zhou Kui died, and the most angry belonged to him.

After all...... This is also the Lao Tzu of his own queen, even if this person is corrupt, it should be dealt with by the imperial court, where can he die like this!?

Coming back to his senses, Zhu Youzhen saluted Zhu Yuanzhang and the three of them: "Taizu, Chengzu, Tiancheng Ancestor, the grandchildren request to investigate this matter, otherwise it will damage the majesty of the Heavenly Family." Dare to poison the Ming Dynasty, these people are really bold!".

"Don't eat it!" Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Gaoxian meaningfully, "Let's go, take a look! Gao Xian has immortal arts, and he will definitely be able to see the cause of his death." "

"That's right. Zhu Gaoxian nodded and said, "If you can let me see his body, I can find out the real cause of death." "

didn't inform Zhu Yuanzhang about Chen Yan and others, not because he wanted to hide it, but because it was unnecessary.

Since Chongzhen is responsible for everything in the Ming Dynasty, and the matter is also under his control, there is no need to tell them everything.

Again...... Zhu Gaoxian is still a little selfish.

That Zhou Kui was not good at killing himself, although Zhu Youzhen was suspicious, he was definitely good to his family.

If Zhou Kui is really allowed to hand over his property, this goods will definitely not die.

According to Zhu Gaoxian's temperament, it is ridiculous that this kind of person can live.

So...... Although he sensed that something might be wrong with the housekeeper, Zhu Gaoxian did not take any indicative action against Fan Guang.

In the end, Zhu Gaoxian thinks that Zhou Kui is dead, and it will be more valuable.

You can take advantage of this incident to push the boat down the river, and use the topic to play a role to wipe out the corrupt officials and corrupt officials in Shuntianfu.

Several of them were emperors, and the matter involved royal decency, so they immediately came to the Zhou Mansion vigorously.

Before entering the door, you can hear the cry of the Zhou Mansion shouting to the sky, as for how much of it is sincere...... It's not what Zhu Gaoxian and others care about.

Wang Chengen went to find Zhou Kui's son, Zhou Jian.

Seeing this person, Zhu Gaoxian couldn't help but look at this person's words.

Because this product has the same name and surname as one of Zhu Gaoxian's courtiers, but the temperament of the two is very different.

Zhou Jian of the Tiancheng Dynasty is a native of Huguang Macheng, who is upright and upright, and the public is upright but not flattering, so Zhu Gaoxian attaches great importance to this person.

And the Zhou Jian in front of him is white and fat, with a pale face and dark eyes, and at first glance, he looks like he has been hollowed out by wine.

The moment he saw Zhu Youzhen, his face changed instantly.

The originally normal expression came out with snot and tears in an instant, and he crawled in front of Zhu Youzhen on his knees, "Your Majesty, my father must have been harmed by others, please make the decision for my father, ......

."

Not to mention, Zhou Jian is still crying decently this week. But when he knelt down and cried, his eyes were erratic, and he secretly observed the reaction of Zhu Gaoxian and others.

They are all people who are emperors, what kind of ghosts and ghosts have never been seen? As for Zhou Jian's careful thinking and tricks, he was seen through by Zhu Gaoxian and others almost instantly.

"Okay!" Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and scolded: "Don't cry, take us to see your father." "

As the son of Zhou Kui, Jiading Bo, Zhou Jian naturally heard about the changes in the court, and guessed the identity of Zhu Yuanzhang in his heart, so he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, "Please ask a few Your Majesty to come with me to ......

".

When they came to the middle hall of the Zhou Mansion, the idlers and others had been driven away in advance, and Zhou Kui's body was placed in the middle hall.

The first two days were fine...... Today, people are gone, although they don't like Zhou Kui, but when they saw his corpse, Zhu Youzhen felt a little sad for a while.

And Zhou Kui's body was also ugly at this time, his face was jaundice, showing a hideous purple red, and his already obese body was even more swollen at this time, looking like a ghost.

......Zhu Di had seen that he had experienced the battlefield and had seen many bloody scenes, but at this time he was surprised, "What is this poison, it is so poisonous!? After death, it shows such a hideous appearance, no wonder Fan Guang said that this person was poisoned ......

."

But isn't it, he died so miserably, if he didn't know that he was poisoned, it would be really surprising.

"Since it was a violent death after eating. Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes fell on Zhou Jian as sharp as a steel knife, and the latter trembled, "Why are you okay!?"

"My father liked to eat human milk, saying that it could prolong life...... The grass people also tried it, but they thought it was very fishy, so they never drank it again. Zhou Jian wanted to cry without tears, and his heart palpitated, "After eating, my father still began to drink milk, and my father has always been careful, and he must use silver to prevent poison when using food, so those of us who are sons don't care." "

"Who knows...... Who knew that my father would become like this after drinking milk!".

"Who is in charge of eating and drinking today?".

"In the back kitchen of the house, they have been taken away by the soldiers for interrogation at this time. "

"Grandpa Huang......" Zhu Gaoxian shook his head and said: "This matter has nothing to do with this person, I already know who poisoned it and what kind of poison it is." "

"Who is it, and what kind of poison is this?"

"Poisonous mushrooms! And they are carefully concocted poisonous mushrooms, which cannot be detected even with silverware. "

The saying that silver needles detect poison is widely spread and is mostly used in wealthy families in ancient times.

This test method is actually problematic...... The so-called silver needle poison detection is mainly against arsenic, that is, sulfide. When silver encounters sulfide, it will react chemically and turn black, so there is a silver needle to detect poison.

It can be seen that there are many poisons that cannot be prevented, and mushrooms are one of them.

"Poisonous mushrooms?" Zhu Yuanzhang's face was solemn, "Most of these things have a taste, right?"

"Poisonous mushrooms are just one of the substances, this thing should be concocted by special techniques, and Zhou Kui happened to be tricked. Zhu Gaoxian said slowly: "The person who poisoned him should be a housekeeper in his house." This person went out in the afternoon, and Fan Guang reported to me, but I didn't care. "

Not long after, Fan Guang received the news and came in to report, "Your Majesty, I have found the housekeeper!"

"Killed and killed, right?".

"That's right. Fan Guang hugged his fists and said: "This person's body was found in Chunhong Courtyard, and by the time the soldiers arrived, this person had already died violently." "

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di frowned deeply, and only then did they find some clues, and the person died!

Zhu Youzhen was even more embarrassed, he always felt that there was a huge force operating everything in secret, and the capital was already covered with dark clouds!
