Chapter 68: The Truth

The person who died was not the son of the Shang Shu family?

Gu Manting couldn't believe it: "Who is it if it's not him?"

Gu Qinghe replied: "I heard that the son of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu was kidnapped a few days ago, and the kidnappers threatened the Ministry of Rites Shangshu and said that if they want their precious son to come back alive, they will do what they instruct." ”

Gu Qinghe smiled at Gu Manting, whose face changed slightly, and continued: "The kidnappers asked the Ministry of Rites Shangshu to find someone to pretend to be his son, and let him go to Guose Tianxiang to participate in the lantern riddle meeting that day. went to tease a woman named Gu Xianghe at the lantern riddle meeting, and took the initiative to argue with the prince. ”

Gu Manting got up angrily: "Is it Xianghe who sued you?"

Gu Qinghe said above that he bribed the son of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites to work for His Royal Highness, and asked him to go to Guose Tianxiang to deliberately flirt with Xianghe, these were all arranged in advance, of course, the only way to sue Shangshu's son was to let him argue with the prince, since he didn't sue him, they would secretly do something and let him die at the hands of the prince.

But this is all confidential, how can Gu Qinghe know about a few people who went out, unless someone tells him.

Gu Qinghe shook his head: "Do you remember your original plan? drunk the prince and threw it into the Qinglou." Hehe, I really don't know what your brains think, such a vulgar idea can be come up with. So, I'll come up with a new idea for you, wouldn't it be better for the prince to kill people in public? ”

"You!" Gu Manting suddenly remembered that the idea of letting the prince beat people to death in public was proposed by Xiang He, and he and His Royal Highness both strongly agreed, so it was used to implement it, but he didn't expect it to come from Gu Qinghe's hand!

Gu Qinghe thought that he didn't see Gu Manting's stunned and angry, and continued his 'heard': "The mastermind behind the kidnapping of Shangshu's son promised that as long as he succeeded in framing the prince and pulling him down from the throne, then his son would be able to come back safely, and not only that, but he would also be added to the rank of knight." ”

Gu Manting naturally knew the stakes, Gu Qinghe knew their actions well, so it was completely possible to kidnap Shang Shu's son and frame the Third Highness.

Now that the matter was over, he calmed down and asked Gu Qinghe with a cold eye: "If you want 500,000 taels of silver as hush money, won't you trap the prince in injustice?"

Gu Qinghe actually wanted to say that the prince had no intention of this position, but it was better not to tell this secret from his own mouth.

So Gu Qinghe said: "The prince likes Xianghe, and now Xianghe has betrayed him, do you say that it is good or bad for me?"

Gu Manting's face was gloomy: "You don't want to sit in that position?"

"Hmph, don't think that what you like will be regarded as a treasure by others. Gu Qinghe rarely dealt with him, "500,000 taels of silver, not a penny less." You go and sue His Royal Highness, and for every additional day you wait, you will increase 100,000 taels of silver. ”

"There is no basis for words, how can I believe that the real Shangshu Gongzi is in your hands?"

Gu Qinghe shook his index finger: "Gu Shangshu, you want me to take you to see Shangshu's son, so that you can take the opportunity to kill people and kill people, right? How can I give you a chance? If you believe it, you can go to Shangshu Mansion to check whether the young master of his family has ever disappeared, and whether the young master has behaved abnormally after coming back." I believe that none of this will be difficult for you, Gu Shangshu. ”

Gu Manting's face was pale, Gu Qinghe didn't call him father, so he naturally knew that she didn't regard herself as a father.

Gu Qinghe got up: "By the way, Gu Shangshu, I still have to sue you, I will move out of the Gu Mansion today, and I will have nothing to do with your Gu family from now on, you can announce that I died of a sudden illness." ”

Gu Manting had a dark face, didn't move or speak, he was afraid that he would pounce and kill this daughter in the next moment.

With such a strong murderous aura, Gu Qinghe naturally felt it.

"Just think about killing me, if I can't get out of this Gu Mansion today, I don't have to wait until tomorrow, and the matter of His Royal Highness designing the crown prince to covet the crown prince will be announced to the world. Gu Qinghe chuckled, "Gu Shangshu, you'd better weigh the trade-offs." ”

Gu Qinghe walked out of the study in a dashing manner, and at the end, she turned around and looked back at Gu Manting: "Three days later, the emperor will announce the punishment of the crown prince in the court." So, I'm only going to give you three days. For three days I will send for the money. As I said, every extra day will be 100,000 taels, and you have to calculate it. ”

As soon as Gu Qinghe returned to Lanyuan, he left the Gu Mansion with red beans, and they didn't take anything with them except for the clothes they were wearing.

When leaving, Hongdou was full of emotion, and looked at Lan Yuan reluctantly: "Miss, are we going to leave like this? This is the only thing left by Madame." ”

Gu Qinghe walked resolutely, "Compared to this courtyard, I'm afraid my mother wants to see us out of the fire." ”

Hongdou thought about it, took one last look, and hurriedly followed Gu Qinghe.

Gu Qinghe and Hongdou checked into the new residence that Qin Fengmian had prepared for them on Fengliuxia Street. Although it is not bigger than Gu Fu, but in terms of decoration and furnishings, it is not necessary to Gu Fu.

The place where they live is very close to the courtyard, and it is time to walk up to two teas, and they can take care of each other.

Gu Qinghe is planning to find a suitable place to serve as the headquarters of Red Shadow, and will arrange accommodation at the headquarters in the later stage, of course, this is all a later story.

After Gu Manting met with Gu Qinghe, he rushed straight to the mansion of the Third Highness and told the Third Highness the reason for the matter.

His Royal Highness swept all the teacups on the table to Gu Manting's feet, and shattered them to the ground.

"Gu Shangshu, you gave birth to a good daughter!" Liu Chen's face turned blue and shouted loudly!

Gu Manting hunched his waist and hurriedly apologized before saying, "I have already sent my subordinates to check the authenticity of this matter, and I believe that there will be a result soon." But ......"

Gu Manting's face was ruthless: "However, according to that little girl's style, this matter will not be fake." ”

Liu Chen thought of Gu Qinghe's cold and wise eyes, and remembered what she said about her love for money, and her heart was furious: "500,000 taels of silver, she is really welcome!"

Gu Manting also had a real headache when he heard it: "Wechen will find a way to make it up." ”

"Will she send someone to pick it up tomorrow?" asked Liu Chen.

"Yes. ”

"If you sue him, tell her to come to me for the money. Liu Chen said coldly.

Since it's not for me, there's no need to keep it.

However, the next day, Gu Qinghe's people came, and when they heard Gu Manting say this, they replied directly: "Our head of the regiment said that she will not meet any of you, if you don't take out the money today, then I will come back tomorrow." ”

So, the man turned around and walked away.

Gu Manting conveyed this matter to Liu Chen, and Liu Chen couldn't help but get angry.

Because the results of the investigation sent out by Gu Manting came out, what Gu Qinghe said was true.

The son of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites was indeed taken captive, and after he was rescued, he was locked in the house and did not come out to see people, and he did not go out until the fifteenth day to go to the country.
