A few days later, the secret investigation jointly conducted by Liu Lida and Gu Zhan did not go well, because the so-called "Da Gonggong" seemed to have disappeared from the palace all at once. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

They found the place where Da Gonggong used to be on an errand, and although it proved from the side that this person was indeed the one who could find out the rumor-mongering person who could be found at present, they had searched almost the place where he lived countless times, but they did not find the slightest new clue.

Things seem to have reached an impasse all of a sudden, but fortunately, Liu Lida and Gu Zhan joined forces and successfully used the most powerful means to successfully clean up the rumors that were unfavorable to King Ding and the Nine Princesses, and finally did not achieve nothing when they returned to Emperor Meng Zhao.

Two days later, Da Gonggong's body was found in a remote and abandoned dry well in the palace, and after examination, it was found that the person was strangled to death and thrown down.

After several re-investigations, Gu Zhan finally found some clues on the corpse, and the clues pointed directly to a little eunuch in the queen's palace.

But the strange thing is that the little eunuch in the queen's palace suddenly disappeared and couldn't be found, and for a while, the case that had finally had some clues had to be deadlocked again.

Liu Lida and Gu Zhan had to tell Emperor Meng Zhao everything they had secretly found, and now this matter was beyond the scope of what they could continue to investigate, so they had to ask for advice.

"Since everyone is dead and there is no way to track it down, then let's stop this matter!"

Emperor Meng Zhao's face was not very good, and after a while, he ordered: "Liu Lida, you go to Dechun Palace and tell the queen for me, if these messy things happen in the palace in the future, I will first treat her for a crime of dereliction of duty!" If she still can't manage the harem well, then I will personally select other capable people to replace her! ”

In the last sentence, Emperor Meng Zhao was really a clear warning.

That's right, although the clues are broken and no useful evidence can be found, but of course Emperor Meng Zhao is not stupid, and he can't think of the connection between the people of Dechun Palace and this matter.

He really couldn't imagine that his queen would disregard the royal face in order to eliminate dissidents, and even use such a means!

It's a shame that these people didn't really do it, otherwise he would really have all the thoughts after the waste!

And now, all he can do is to warn and beat on the side, hoping that Jiang can learn a lesson and stop doing those disgusting things by being smart.

As for whether there are more people in this matter, Emperor Meng Zhao is unwilling to investigate it in detail now, otherwise he is really afraid that he will not be able to hold back his anger for a while and make some decision impulsively!

Liu Lida naturally understood what Emperor Meng Zhao meant, so he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly took the order and retreated, going straight to Dechun Palace.

As for Gu Zhan, he must feel a little unwilling in his heart, although there is no direct evidence to prove who Nada's father-in-law was ordered by, but a clear-eyed person knows at a glance that it must be inseparable from Dechun Palace.

The emperor made it clear that he didn't want to pursue it any further, which was of course unfair to the nine princesses.

But of course he can't say anything, because it's useless to say it, but it's easy to cause unnecessary trouble to the ninth princess, but he has made up his mind in his heart that he must tell the ninth princess all the truth, so that he can be careful of Dechun Palace, the queen and others.

"Gu Zhan, you now go to the Heling Palace for me, and send her those treasures that I personally picked out for the Ninth Princess, so that she can be happy."

Soon, Emperor Meng Zhao also sent an errand to Gu Zhan.

He obviously wanted Gu Zhan to comfort Meng Xia for him, after all, there was no way to investigate this matter now, and he still felt a little ashamed of Meng Xia.

As for King Ding, he didn't know about it from the beginning, otherwise, I am afraid that things would not have ended so easily.

Fortunately, all the unfavorable rumors in the palace have been cleared, so I can barely be relieved.

Hearing Emperor Meng Zhao's will, Gu Zhan received the order: "Please rest assured, the emperor will go and send the treasure to the ninth princess." ”

"Well, go ahead, when you see the ninth princess in a while, you must know what you should tell her. The ninth princess is filial and sensible, I really don't want to wronged her, but now that the clues have been broken, I can't check it again, but fortunately, the unfavorable rumors have been resolved, otherwise I don't know how guilty I am. ”

Emperor Meng Zhao deliberately added a sentence, which can be regarded as an explicit indication to Gu Zhan.

"The emperor cares for the heart of the nine princesses, and the nine princesses are naturally very clear. Weichen believes that the ninth princess will only be grateful, and there will definitely be no misunderstanding. ”

Gu Zhan said that he completely understood, and then withdrew in the satisfied gaze of Emperor Meng Zhao.

I have to say that in order to show appeasement, Emperor Meng Zhao really rewarded Meng Xia with a lot of rare things.

When Meng Xia saw the treasures brought by Gu Zhan, he didn't ask much, and after a brief look to show his respect, he asked people to take them down and put them away.

"Gu Zhan, is it true that the rumors have been settled, that's why my father asked you to send me so many rewards, I hope I don't ask too much?"

After the tea was served, Meng Xia temporarily sent out the other miscellaneous people one by one, and sat down to talk to Gu Zhan alone.

"I really can't hide anything from the Ninth Princess."

When Gu Zhan heard this, of course, he didn't have the slightest intention of concealing it, and said simply and clearly: "After a few days, the rumors have been completely cleared and resolved, and the ninth princess doesn't have to worry about it anymore." However, the real culprit behind the rumors is no longer able to continue to investigate, and the emperor said that the clues have been broken and can only be done, after all, everything must be told with real evidence, and cannot be blindly inferred. ”

Before, Gu Zhanyou secretly revealed the specific details that he had tracked down to Meng Xia, so he didn't repeat those details, in short, in the end, the emperor still couldn't choose it, and it was indeed the only way to say it.

"Also, just now the emperor asked Liu Lida to go to Dechun Palace and bring a few words to the queen to warn, although this time the emperor did not pursue the Dechun Palace, but the emperor's heart is like a mirror, where do you not know who is behind the murder of you and the prince! Let Liu Lida go over to talk for him, it can be regarded as knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger to restrain one or two! ”

Speaking of this, Gu Zhan was a little angry, if this matter really digs deeper, I am afraid that it is not only Dechun Palace that is involved, it is estimated that the East Palace is not less involved!

It's a shame that their Gu family has been bullying the prince for so long, and this kind of means really disappointed him!

"In this matter, it is beyond my expectations that my father can do this, after all, there is indeed no ironclad evidence that is enough to convince everyone at present."

After hearing this, Meng Xia said: "It's not easy to solve all the rumors, and I don't have the right to ask my father to do the same." ”

"The ninth princess is relieved, in my opinion, you should still talk to the prince when you turn around on this matter, so as not to have similar things in the future."

Gu Zhan was wholeheartedly thinking about Meng Xia, and felt that whether it was the Ninth Princess or King Ding, he would have to resist the Dechun Palace more in the future.

"I really don't know how to talk to the Third Emperor Brother about this, it's really the content of those rumors that is too ......"

Meng Xia couldn't help but smile, and changed his words: "I think it's better to forget it, you have been secretly handling the investigation in the past few days, although they are all extremely secretive, it is difficult for ordinary people to know what happened, but according to my understanding of the Third Emperor Brother, I am afraid that it will not be long before he will naturally get some rumors." ”

"That's right, I happened to meet the prince in the palace yesterday, and he seemed to have something to ask me at that time, but in the end he didn't say it, I guess I have heard something."

Gu Zhan also knew the ability of King Ding, so it was extremely likely, no wonder the emperor wanted to end this matter earlier from the beginning.

Moreover, Meng Xia's words are quite reasonable, I am afraid that the prince will deliberately hide it from the ninth princess if he knows about it, after all, if he deliberately tells it, he really doesn't know where to speak.

"Actually, I'm not accidentally spreading any rumors, but it's not true anyway. It's just that those people obviously don't just want to pour out the sewage, they want to take the opportunity to make a big deal and drag the Three Emperor Brothers off the stage! ”

Meng Xia sighed slightly and said, "You don't know, how many times in the past two years has the Third Emperor Brother almost died outside the palace, and there are people in the palace who don't want him to come back at all." Now that he has not only made military achievements, but he has also been crowned king, and those people can't tolerate him, and conspiracy like this one will definitely not be less in the future. ”

Speaking of this, Meng Xia looked at Gu Zhan and said very solemnly: "Gu Zhan, I know that you have your mission, and I don't want you to do anything, I just hope that if the Third Emperor Brother is framed and in danger one day, you can reach out and help him." I only have such a real relative as the Third Emperor Brother, if anything happens to him......"

"Ninth Princess, don't worry, if there is really such a day, I, Gu Zhan, will definitely do my best to help, and I will never stand by and stay out of the matter!"

Without waiting for Meng Xia to finish speaking, Gu Zhan nodded vigorously in response, and at the same time he also made it clear: "I know that the prince's business is the business of the ninth princess, and the business of the ninth princess is my Gu Zhan's business, so whether it is your or the prince's business, I will not ignore it!" ”

"Thank you, Gu Zhan!"

Meng Xia smiled knowingly and thanked Gu Zhan sincerely: "I know how attentive you are to this matter, otherwise, the trouble between me and the Three Emperor Brothers would not be resolved so quickly." Although the Three Emperor Brothers may not know your contribution to this, I will also say thank you on behalf of the Three Emperor Brothers. ”

"Ninth Princess, you don't need to say anything to thank me, this is what I should do, and I am willing to do it."

Gu Zhan looked at Meng Xia steadily, his voice was extremely soft but with incomparable firmness: "Moreover, no matter what the Ninth Princess asks me to do, I am willing, and I will never break my word!" ”

More than two years ago, he said something similar, although the ninth princess never took the initiative to ask him to do anything, but his promise will never change for the rest of his life!

He knew his heart, and his heart had long been filled with the only Nine Princesses.

Although he may not be able to get the person he cherishes in his heart in his life, and he may always be able to stand aside and silently watch the Ninth Princess from afar, but even so, as long as he can do something for him, he is happier than anything else.

He was willing to do anything, anything! As long as she speaks, it doesn't matter if it is to kill him!

After coming out of the Heling Palace, Gu Zhan had some gains and losses, after all, he still didn't have the courage to directly confess his heart, but when he saw the gentle and caring smile of the ninth princess towards him, he was already very happy.

At this moment, outside the palace, inside the Dingwang Mansion, Meng Lang was sitting in the study, listening to his henchmen tell him the latest news from the palace.

The rumors were resolved as smoothly as he had planned, and the so-called masterminds behind the scenes had never expected their father to have the courage to take the punishment seriously from the beginning.

Overall, everything has reached the original plan, and the only slight discrepancy is that Ah Xia also knows about the rumors.

He didn't expect that that day, when Gu Zhan took the captured palace people to Huaide Hall to worship his father, Ah Xia also happened to be in Hao'er to help approve the folds. Originally, Ah Xia should have rested that day and didn't have to go to the Huaide Palace.

However, the girl seemed to have guessed his plan, so she was very quiet for the past few days, and did not mention anything to him at all.

Originally, he didn't plan to tell Ah Xia all this because he was worried that Ah Xia would feel embarrassed and angry, but now seeing his reaction made him subconsciously feel a lot more relieved.

"Lord, my subordinates have found out that although this matter was planned by the queen and the prince, Liu Guifei and the fifth princess were the real promoters of spreading the rumors, and the queen and the prince seemed to be planning to beat the Liu mother and daughter in case something happened, and the Liu mother and daughter would still be kept in the dark and used as guns without knowing it."

The man found some secret passages, these days the people of the Dingwang Mansion are not idle, and there is a lot of progress in what should be found and what should not be found.

"Sure enough, this is in line with what they have always done."

Meng Lang listened to it and snorted coldly: "Okay, since the mother and daughter of the Liu family still don't know anything now, let's find someone to secretly remind them, it's a pity that such a good plan between the queen and the prince is not praised!" ”

"The subordinates know, and they will arrange it after a while, and ensure that they will be able to fight in the dog-biting kennel, so that these people in the palace are too idle, and they can't harm people if they have nothing to do!"

The henchman immediately understood Meng Lang's intentions, and immediately received the order: "Lord Wang, if there is nothing else, my subordinates will retire first." ”

"Go ahead." Meng Lang waved his hand and didn't say anything more.

Soon, he picked up the brush again and continued to draw with great concentration on the paper.

In the painting, a familiar face Gu Pansheng is vivid, who can it be if it is not Meng Xia?

It wasn't until the last stroke fell that he stopped again and looked at the person in the painting with a look of tenderness. (To be continued.) )
