Chapter 223: Change of Plan
Gu Zizhong was suddenly stunned!
This is not nonsense, she especially wants to hear it.
Because she had just heard from Zhu Wangye in Zhu's mansion that if the matter of poisoning the palace was solved, she and Zhu Shizi would go back to Jinling.
Her eyes widened, but she still couldn't lose her identity as the county lord, and said without changing her face: "Brother Wu, what did you say?"
Wu Yicheng didn't notice the change in Gu Zizhong, and he was surprised: "Don't you know, Lord Gu, someone in the palace wants to poison the emperor, if someone doesn't try it, the emperor is afraid that he will be poisoned to death." The little eunuch who tried the food died, and he died. ”
Gu Zizhong pretended to know, nodded lightly, and said, "Oh, I seem to have heard about this." ”
Wu Yicheng said: "Ling Zun was originally very busy in the palace, but now it has been effective, and he can let his old man rest for a while." ”
Gu Zizhong said with a relieved expression: "That's." It's just that this matter still has to be done seriously. Isn't my father doing this for the sake of the court?"
She was happy, but she still had to pretend.
Wu Yicheng was very sure: "But isn't it? County Lord, don't you know, the emperor was angry and ordered all the guards in our capital to be scared." Especially me, I am the head of the soldiers and horses of the five cities, and these guards in the capital are all under my control. If the emperor blames him, I will bear the brunt. ”
Impossible!
has a father here, and Wu Yicheng is still a person that the emperor particularly likes, how can the emperor be angry with him?
Gu Zi patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "But that's because you're too worried, now look at it, aren't you good? Not only do you not have to suffer the crime, but you will be promoted because of it! ”
Wu Yicheng no longer answered, but lowered his head with a blushing face.
Gu Zizhong then praised him.
praised him for his beauty, and he had nothing to say.
Gu Zizhong really hoped that he would leave quickly.
Wu Yicheng hurriedly said goodbye, and beckoned to Gu Zizhong very happily before leaving.
After all, people are from poor backgrounds, and it is not easy to be a petty official in the capital.
Now the case is about to be solved, and there is also a credit for Wu Yicheng here.
Can Wu Yicheng not be happy?
Gu Zizhong looked at him and felt very relieved.
After all, my father arranged an official position for others, which can be regarded as a wish to repay Gu Zizhong.
In her previous life, she pointed fingers at Wu Yicheng, and she didn't give much benefit to others.
At that time, Wu Yicheng assisted her in the saddle before and after her, but he didn't get much benefit.
As soon as she dies, I am afraid that Wu Yicheng will not escape death.
In her previous life, Gu Zizhong was sorry for others, she only cared about her own open and secret battles, but she forgot the biggest hero around her.
So in this life, Gu Zizhong is guilty of Wu Yicheng.
She can see that Wu Yicheng is good, and Wu Yicheng is living a happy life, which is satisfied.
Looking at Wu Yicheng's back that disappeared into the night, Gu Zizhong smiled sweetly, looking very satisfied.
She turned and went back to the house, and did not go to her mother.
It's too late, I'm afraid my mother has already slept!
Gu Zizhong also felt tired, and kept yawning.
Thinking back to what Wu Yicheng said, Gu Zizhong couldn't help but laugh.
She had already planned to go back with Zhu Shizi.
I was thinking that I would have to wait for a while, at least twenty or thirty days, right?
But the case in the palace is about to be solved, and this matter has come to an end.
Then Zhu Shizi can go back with her as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, she burst out laughing happily.
She was alone in the room, and she was in a daze, and suddenly laughed.
That's silly.
Even she felt like she was too stupid.
Shaking her head, she closed her eyes and lay down.
Early the next morning, Gu Zizhong was awakened by Feng Ming's knock on the door.
Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Gu Zizhong was very reluctant to get up.
She was in a hurry, and said to Feng Ming outside: "What are you doing? What day is it, you are making noise outside, and you don't let people sleep?"
Feng Ming ignored it, and then knocked on the door and said, "Something's wrong, county lord, something is wrong." ”
What's the big deal?
Although Gu Zizhong was very reluctant, he still got up and went to open the door.
Facing Feng Ming outside the door, she was still yawning.
Feng Ming was very anxious: "County Lord, something happened, we have to be implicated." ”
Gu Zizhong hadn't reacted yet: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
She was still immersed in the joy of being at Zhu Shizi's house yesterday.
So when she asked, she still had a smile on her face.
Feng Ming was even more anxious: "County Lord, you don't know. The person who poisoned the palace was Tang Xiannan's maid. ”
Gu Zizhong's eyes immediately widened!
She didn't seem to hear clearly, blinked her eyes, and asked, "What did you say?"
Feng Ming frowned anxiously: "It has been found out early this morning, and the person who poisoned the emperor is Tang Xiannan's maid." At ten o'clock in the morning, the maid was found dead in the firewood room. ”
Gu Zizhong couldn't believe it: "How did you die?"
Feng Ming shook his head: "I don't know about this. But I know that she is indeed Tang Xiannan's maid. ”
Oh no, there's a conspiracy here!
Someone set it up, right?
The maid herself was naturally not so bold, and she must have been instructed by someone.
But......
It can't be Sister Tang, she is so decent, why do you want to murder the emperor?
But......
Gu Zizhong suddenly panicked.
First, she was panicking for Sister Tang, and second, she was panicking for her own family.
Tang Xiannan and her are also sisters, and they also have a relationship with the Gu family.
If the emperor gets to the bottom of it, even if the Gu family has nothing to do with this matter, they will have to be dragged into it.
Finished!
Gu Zizhong's heart suddenly cooled to the extreme.
What she wants to do most now is to find Sister Tang as soon as possible and ask her for clarification.
At this moment, even if Sister Tang has nothing to do with this matter, she can't get out.
Moreover, how could that maid suddenly die?
Is it that the manipulator behind the scenes knows that the matter is about to be revealed, and he wants to kill people?
In this way, the person behind the manipulation is the people in the palace, and the power is not small.
Otherwise, the maid would not have been killed.
And killed silently.
Gu Zizhong couldn't sit still anymore, she pulled Feng Ming and said, "Let's go, let's go see my mother and tell her about this." ”
Feng Ming said: "Madame already knows about this, and now she is anxiously pacing back and forth in the room!"
Gu Zizhong's originally nervous hand was put down, and his heart was also blank.
Even my mother didn't know what to do, and she didn't know what to do.
Even if this matter has nothing to do with the Gu family, the Gu family will be implicated.
Even if the emperor doesn't pursue it now, this matter has become a handle in the hands of the emperor.
If the emperor wants to cross the Gu family one day, he can also talk about this matter.
