487. It's time for the truth to come out
Gu Sangongzi looked at the prime minister's incredulous appearance with a smile in his eyes. Just imagine how a little squire could have met his father at that time. My father was on the march all the year round, and the rest of the time he didn't go back to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion in Kyoto, but stayed in the ancestral house in Jiangnan. Because he is away all the year round, just like Qiao Ge Lao, he doesn't even need to go to court. Who knew that when he finally went back to Kyoto, he would be taken advantage of by the prime minister and slandered in front of the emperor with a letter of collaboration with the enemy and betraying the country. Less than halfway through his father's triumphant return, he was personally escorted away by the Imperial Forest Army. Not long after, he was convicted, and hundreds of people in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion were killed.
As for him Gu Liufei, he was still very young at that time, so after he fled back to the ancestral house in Jiangnan with his father, he didn't know each other. After that, he grew up and no one would recognize him at all. It's just that no one would have thought that their father and son could still make a comeback.
The prime minister came back to his senses from the shock, indeed, he had not seen the so-called Marquis Zhenyuan. He only heard a few words from the people in the court, and he happened to know that the Marquis of Zhenyuan and the enemy generals were good, so he had a plan. You must know that if this plan succeeds, he will definitely be able to take the position of the Marquis of Zhenyuan. The officials below, he is already slowly taking care of them, as long as the Marquis of Zhenyuan dies, he Zhou Tianheng can ascend to the sky in one step. If he fails, he won't lose his life, at most he will be demoted a few levels. At that time, he already had a little foundation in the DPRK. Why wouldn't he be happy with such a bet?
"Your Majesty, when the Marquis of Zhenyuan collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, Gu Liufei was Gu Huanyu's biological son, so he should be put in prison." I really didn't expect that the world is impermanent, and the one who sued him Zhou Tianheng today would be his nephew. What he didn't expect was that his sister Zhou Tianheng was married to Master Gu, who was the Marquis of Zhenyuan. But Master Gu, do you know what the truth is, he thinks, he shouldn't know it in this life.
Qiao Ge looked at it for a long time, and after all, he just sighed, alas, this is all the sins done by the emperor, and they are all done by Zhou Tianheng. He had seen the Marquis of Zhenyuan, so he would accept him as a closed disciple when he saw Liufei. The reason is naturally because he could only watch everyone in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion go to prison back then. He knew that sooner or later there would be this day.
"Prime Minister don't worry, since you said that the evidence is conclusive, then why worry about Gu Sangongzi coming here to avenge the Zhenyuan Marquis's Mansion?" Long Jintian's attitude is also a little correct at the moment, he has also read the case of his father's betrayal back then, and he feels that there are many doubts. However, his father thought that the Marquis of Zhenyuan was collaborating with the enemy and treason, and beheaded everyone in the Marquis of Zhenyuan's Mansion for public display.
Liu Meixiang was also very curious, she knew that her husband had great powers, but after all, more than ten years had passed since the case, and it was very difficult to find evidence. But Gu Sangongzi was not flustered, and he was sure of it.
"Are you sure? Are you sure you really have enough evidence in your hands to really be able to defeat the prime minister and avenge the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion? β
Gu Sangongzi smiled, she, a lady, finally knew that she was worried about her. But now is not the time to flirt, even if you want to flirt, you have to wait for all the storms to pass. Looking at Long Jintian on the dragon chair with firm eyes, he looked at Liufei, but he never did anything that he was not sure of. Since he appeared here, then he must have the ability to overthrow the prime minister.
"Back to the emperor's words, the grass people are indeed true, it is the prime minister who framed my town Yuanhou Mansion. If the emperor doesn't believe it, just wait a few more moments. β
Long Jintian nodded, time, he has. He has been waiting for more than ten years, how can he care about waiting for such a while. Looking directly at Gu Sangongzi's eyes, no wonder she always felt that Gu Liufei was unusual, it turned out that he was the son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan. and his eyes are firm and confident, and he is clearly sure that he will put the prime minister to death. The little scholar's is just an appetizer, and now this is really a killer feature. framed the important ministers of the court, this crime, coupled with corruption, he just wanted to keep the life of the prime minister.
At this time, I only heard the shouting of the eunuch outside the door, and each one was closer than the other. "The Queen Mother has arrived."
After a while, a noble lady in her forties appeared, with twenty or thirty palace maids and eunuchs in front of her and behind her, and the momentum was very strong. She wore a dark red, black and gold silk peony robe and mopped the floor, and wore a rose red skirt. The meticulously combed cone bun is inserted with a phoenix spitting gorgeous gold step, and the dark red Yingluo hanging from the forehead is magnificent. The ears are adorned with round snail earrings of the same color, which are graceful and luxurious. Her sharp eyes carried a heroic spirit, and it was not difficult to see from her somewhat pale and delicate face that she must have been a bewitching person when she was young. His gaze slowly fell on Gu Sangongzi's body, and the corners of his indifferent mouth hooked up with a smile.
The willow eyebrows are slightly dressed, and the queen mother's eyes when she looks at her husband will not be the right eye. Tsk, at this age, you can be a husband and mother.
As soon as Long Jintian saw that he stood up from the dragon chair at the moment, a trace of disgust flashed in Long Jin's sleeve eyes, since she was born, the Queen Mother has not been unable to find trouble with her after the closing. But he still knows the rules, even if he doesn't go up to greet him, he kneels down.
"See the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is a thousand years old." All the civil and military officials knelt down in front of their wives.
Long Jintian crossed the crowd and walked straight towards the Queen Mother, and helped the Queen Mother from the hands of the palace maid. "Why is the queen mother free today, and she actually came here to try it out?"
The Queen Mother glanced at Long Jintian and was quite dissatisfied. When his eyes swept over the candidates present, he naturally blamed Long Jin at the moment. "When the mourning family came over, I heard that the palace examination had ended, and the question of the candidate's complaint against the prime minister was being handled. Now that the palace exams are over, these candidates stay on the spot to do something! As for the announcement of the top three, let Guan Gonggong deal with it tomorrow. β
Long Jintian glanced at the candidates, the reason why he left the candidates here was because he wanted to teach them a lesson and let them see what happened to the prime minister. can look at the appearance of the Queen Mother, and it is clear that she doesn't like the presence of these candidates at all. "Grandpa Guan, let these candidates all be withdrawn."
"Yes." When Guan Gonggong heard this, he immediately walked down the ladder and retreated with the candidates.
When the candidates left, there was naturally no need for the scholar to stay here. Su Zhengkang was a little unwilling, he finally entered the palace once, but it was a pity that the scene on the surface was wasted in vain.
However, at this very moment. Zhao Dagongzi had gained a lot, and led the guards to carry boxes of things and walked in. Su Zhengkang smiled, it seemed that God seemed to favor him. It just so happened that he also solved Steward Chen.
Zhao Dagongzi put down all the boxes of things and asked the guards to open them all. Fortunately, they arrived one step earlier, so they didn't let the people behind them succeed. There were more than 30 boxes of chests, all of which were gold, silver and jewelry, including 2 million taels of disaster relief gold. It was opened for a while, panicking the eyes of all the people present.
"Tell the emperor, this is what Wei Chen collected in the hint in the prime minister's study. Among them, including what Liu Ruofeng just said, all of them are in it. β
The prime minister is useless to explain at this moment, he obviously saw that Steward Chen had already released the signal, how could it still fall into the hands of Zhao Dagongzi now.
With a sound of 'bang-', Steward Chen was kicked to the ground by Su Zhengkang, and happened to be lying next to the prime minister. Su Zhengkang clapped his palms and stood with Gu Sangongzi.
"Prime Minister, now that the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say! Just now, your minions gave a signal, but they still couldn't catch up with Zhao Dagongzi to take the first step, and all these gold and silver treasures fell into the hands of Zhao Dagongzi. Tsk, these gold and silver treasures are worth half of the national treasury! β
Liu Mei gave Su Zhengkang an appreciative look, and then saw the Queen Mother walking towards them. Moreover, the target is not her and Liu Ruofeng, but Gu Sangongzi.
"You are Brother Gu's son?" The Queen Mother asked loudly and looked at Liu Ruofeng in front of her. She heard a report that it was the son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan who avenged his grievances on the palace test, so she rushed over without stopping. Unexpectedly, she thought that there was no living mouth in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, but now God really has eyes, and she actually left a seed for the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion. Since he came all the way to Kyoto to avenge his grievances, is Brother Gu still alive now?
Long Jintian looked at Gu Sangongzi, and then at the Queen Mother. She just called Zhenyuanhou Brother Gu, and the queen mother must also know Zhenyuanhou.
Gu Sangongzi looked at the loving woman in front of him, with detachment. He only heard his father talk about the grievances of the Marquis of Zhenyuan's mansion, but he didn't know that his father would know the current Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother actually called his father the eldest brother. For so many years, he has always wondered that although his father married his mother and married several aunts, he kept a certain distance from everyone. And the queen mother in front of her is a little similar to Aunt Du, no, it should be said that Aunt Du has the charm of the queen mother, that is, Aunt Fu is also a little like the woman in front of her.
At this time, the voice of the father-in-law outside sounded again. "Concubine Zhou has arrivedβ"
As soon as the Queen Mother heard this title, her face immediately fell. Concubine Zhou, this woman, for so many years, this woman can be said to have taken up all the scenery, and even she, the queen mother, can't match it. She just looked at Gu Sangongzi and sighed slowly, and the corners of her eyebrows, which were a little kind, also sharpened, like a hedgehog that would stab people anytime and anywhere.
"Your real enemy is here, the prime minister is the main messenger, but so is Concubine Zhou. After all these years, it's time for the truth to come out. β
Gu Sangongzi was really a little curious now, even the willow eyebrows were also puzzled. It was the prime minister who framed the Marquis of Zhenyuan's mansion, but what does this have to do with Concubine Zhou? Could it be that just because Concubine Zhou is the prime minister's younger sister, even Concubine Zhou was involved. She felt that the queen mother must have known about the events of the year, but because she had no handle, she couldn't bring down the prime minister. But the Queen Mother's words, it seems that the matter of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion being wronged is not so simple.
