Chapter 214: Self-preservation

Gu Xiangru was not a fool, so he naturally knew what the emperor was referring to, and hurriedly knelt down to show his loyalty: "Your Majesty, Weichen has been wronged! Weichen has no second heart for the emperor, otherwise the sky will thunder and he will not die." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "He has been in officialdom for more than 40 years, and he has sat in the position of prime minister for more than 30 years, and all kinds of oaths are easy for him, just a formality from his mouth, and he has never taken it to heart.

"Don't you want to know how the queen died? Then I'll let you see and figure out whether she died because of me, or by herself. "At this moment, except for the guards waiting outside the store, there is no one in the dormitory. Therefore, Tang Zhenwei was no longer taboo and took Gu Xiangru to the underground palace.

To be honest, he knew that there was an underground palace in Gu Wanrou's bedroom, and he also made a lot of efforts when it was built. Otherwise, there are many people in the harem, how could she build this secret room so smoothly, and no one has caught any tricks? He always thought that his daughter built this secret room to cultivate his own power, and did not think much about those stormy things, until he entered the secret room with the emperor, and then he suddenly realized.

It turned out that Gu Wanrou had been raising male pets in this secret room, why was he so sure? The reason was that all kinds of fishing and water pleasure utensils hung around the secret room, he was from the past, how could he not know what those things were for. And it looks like those things are still used a lot.

The truth of all this made Gu Xiangru's hairs stand up. He looked at the emperor with a frightened face, and his whole body began to tremble. This time he was really scared.

If it is the crime of rebellion, he can still argue it, the crime of this filthy harem is already like a thousand catties, tightly buckled on Gu Wanrou's body, or rather, on the Gu family. After all, Gu Wanrou is the Gu family's young lady. If this is really to blame, no one in their family can escape.

Just stunned, Gu Xiangru thought a lot. Suddenly, he remembered the holy decree he received this morning, Gu Wanrou messed up the harem, how could the emperor still crown her as the Empress of Filial Piety, or with the most solemn funeral, and be in the royal mausoleum? Could it be that the emperor wanted to hide this matter, so as not to be known by outsiders and damage the national prestige?

Thinking of this, he crawled to the emperor on his knees and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen really doesn't know! Wanrou's child has been in the palace for nearly thirty years, and she only returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion a few days ago to live, and Weichen really didn't know that she had done such a big rebellious thing. He knelt on the ground, pulled the hem of Tang Zhenwei's clothes with both hands, and once again dissociated himself from this matter.

At this moment, he was gambling to see if the emperor wanted to keep the national prestige of the Great Celestial Empire, or if he wanted the lives of his family.

If the emperor now decrees that all the houses will be beheaded, then the queen's ugly things will no longer be hidden.

If the emperor decided to let this matter pass like this, then their family would have escaped this catastrophe.

"Do you still investigate the cause of her death?" The emperor said that she was naturally Gu Wanrou who was lying in the main hall of the dormitory at the moment. Then, he pointed to the medicine bottle on the ground, the mark on the bottle was very familiar to him, presumably Gu Xiangru was more familiar than him, because it was the Gu family's family emblem.

His meaning is obvious, your daughter committed suicide by taking poison after the incident. As for why there was no trace of poisoning, he really didn't know.

"Wechen understands that this matter will be rotten in the stomach, and after he dies, he will also be brought into the coffin, and he will not let outsiders know. "This time, Gu Xiangru is telling the truth, if this matter spreads, their family will definitely fall to the ground, let alone the throne at that time, they will only end up in a different place.

Tang Zhenwei nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Please pay more attention to Gu Xiang, how many moths are eating inside and outside in the court, this emperor already has a list here, but I am afraid that it is not very complete, and I will need Gu Xiang's help to supplement it in the future." He once again sounded the alarm bell for Gu Xiangru, no matter how he said that he was also Yuheng's grandfather, as long as he could spare his life if nothing happened, let him live!
