With that piece of waist card, all the evidence now points to General Guan.

When these things were sent to the emperor, the emperor did not speak for a long time.

The head of the Praetorian Guard knew that the emperor thought the same thing as him.

"Your Majesty, it seems that there must be something strange about this matter at the end of the general, there are clear rules in the team, and the waist card must not be lost when you go out."

The chief manager was anxious to explain, he didn't want the emperor to make a hasty decision.

"The people under General Guan are all veterans of three to five years, it is absolutely impossible for them to make such a low-level mistake, someone must be ......"

"Alright." Before the chief manager could say anything, the emperor had already stopped in time.

If he says this, he's in trouble.

He knew that the chief steward wanted to say that General Guan must have been framed, but now he must not say such a thing without evidence, otherwise it will only cause more trouble.

The emperor knew very well that after Gu Shenyuan and the others came back and explained this matter, he knew that this matter must not be simple.

There are not many people who dare to pretend to be in his name, and after Gu Shenyuan and Jiang Softwords escaped, he also knew very well who he was to make waves so impatiently.

It's just that this matter must not be known to others, otherwise he may lose another son.

"Where is Guan Qinchao now?" The emperor now wants to know where the people are.

The head of the Praetorian Guard replied, "If you go back to the emperor, General Guan led his troops out of the city a few days ago to search for the traces of Jiang Ruanyan and others, and after receiving the news, he immediately rushed back, and he is still on his way back." ”

"When will he arrive?"

Oops, people are not in the city yet.

"According to the distance, the person sent out should have delivered the information at noon yesterday, and if he leaves immediately, he should be able to arrive this afternoon."

"Bring someone to me right now." The emperor ordered.

"Yes." The steward was ordered to leave.

After the people left, the emperor slowly closed his eyes and snorted softly.

There must be someone behind this matter, he knows this very well, but he never wants the person behind this to be Gu Gangqian.

Outside the city, Guan Qinchao immediately led the team after receiving the order and rushed to the capital non-stop.

When they arrived at the city gate, they were stopped by the guards at the gate.

The soldiers behind Guan Qin Chao immediately scolded, "Blind your dog eyes, this is Guan Qin Chao Guan General, you people don't hurry up and get out of the way!" ”

"We received an order, and the one we want to arrest is Guan Qin Chao! Get down! ”

The other party was even more confident, and loudly scolded Guan Qinchao to get off the horse.

Guan Qinchao and his soldiers didn't know what was going on, they only knew that Jiang Ruanyan and Gu Shenyuan's people suddenly returned to the capital and directly found the emperor.

He thought that something must have happened, but he didn't know the specific reason, so he rushed back with someone immediately.

But he had already been arrested before he even entered the city, and his intuition told him that it must not be so simple.

The guards handcuffed him, and to avoid confusion, they put him in the wagon.

was about to set off for the palace, but met Gu Gangqian's carriage halfway through.

When the soldiers saw Gu Gangqian's car, they immediately stopped the carriage and gave way.

I thought that His Royal Highness was just passing by, but at this time, Gu Gangqian asked the carriage to stop.

He lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out, the simple appearance of the carriage could not deceive him, so many soldiers were escorted, there must be important people inside.

He asked, "Who are the people inside?" ”

The soldiers below didn't dare to lie, so they could only answer truthfully, "Back to Your Highness, in the carriage is Guan Qinchao, the suspect in the murder case in Xiangyang Village." ”

"Caught so quickly?" Gu Gangqian's face seemed to be smiling, "It's okay, come with me into the palace." ”

The curtain was closed, and his carriage walked in front, escorting Guan Qinchao's carriage behind.

Sitting in the carriage, Gu Gangqian held a folding fan and rhythmically tapped it on the palm of his hand, and everything was firmly controlled by him.

That's what he had said about it when he went to look for Kureya before.

He has been worrying, Gu Shenyuan and Jiang Ruanyan have been on the run like this, he not only has to spend people and effort to find it, but he may not be able to kill if he finds it.

In this way, even if he wins the throne, but one day if Gu Shenyuan suddenly returns to the capital, he may not be able to hold the throne again.

So they united with Kulie Ye and thought of a way to call Gu Shenyuan back.

After leaving the mansion on the outskirts of the city that night, he sent his men to Xiangyang Village, killed all the people there, and took Xiaohai away.

The next afternoon, he went to the workshop in the orchard and killed Xiaohai's family in broad daylight.

If the matter is so big, Gu Shenyuan will definitely come back, and it will inevitably attract the attention of his father.

Father Emperor has now investigated Guan Qinchao's head, and soon his old man will find more and more suspicious points.

And at this time, the Yelang Star sent by Kulieya came in handy.

When he arrived in the palace, Gu Gangqian insisted on following him into his father's palace on the grounds of escorting Guan Qin Chao.

When the emperor saw Gu Gangqian coming, he was very displeased, but he couldn't say it clearly.

Instead of playing tricks with that kid there, it is better to ask Qin Chao directly, what is going on?

"Guan Qin Chao, do you know why I arrested you?"

Even though Guan Qinchao was wearing shackles and knew that he had been wronged, he still looked respectful.

"The emperor's words, the general heard the reason at the end of the road."

"And what do you have to say?" The emperor continued to ask.

"The last general was wronged, and that night the last general led people to search the nearby village, because the village was overpopulated, so the search took a little longer, and when he came back, it was already dark."

Guan Qinchao knew that this would arouse suspicion for himself, but instead of being caught by someone later and using it as a handle, saying that he intended to conceal it, it was better to admit it directly now.

The emperor immediately realized that this matter was difficult.

According to the time point of that night, Guan Qinchao was not in the city, and the suspicion was even greater.

Seeing that the emperor didn't speak, Guan Qinchao also knew that the emperor was difficult, so he naturally had to say a few words for himself.

"The emperor will be wronged, and the last general has never known Xiaohai, and he has never been to Xiangyang Village."

The emperor is also trying his best to help him cover up, but he really doesn't know how to help.

He asked again, "Then do you have any witnesses who can prove that you did not go to Xiangyang Village after you left the city that night." ”

It's going to be troublesome now, Guan Qin Chao was silent for a while, and continued, "There is no one else around the last general, only the soldiers who went with me. ”

Gu Gangqian, who was next to him, sneered when he heard this

"General Guan, do you treat us like three-year-olds? Those soldiers are your men, and you have made them witnesses. ”

His gaze slowly shifted to Guan Qin Chao, and the smile in his eyes hid countless knives.

"Do you expect them to stand up and say that they are murderers who falsely preach the Holy Will?"

Guan Qin Chao was furious, he knelt on the ground and glared at Gu Gangqian viciously.

He knew that he was suspicious now, but he didn't allow Gu Gangqian to make up his mind to say such things now.

Say he can, but say the soldier next to him can't!

Those are brothers who were born and died with him, and they cannot be wronged.

"Your Highness, it's true that our team is late when they come back, but we have never passed through Xiangyang Village, didn't we say that someone has been to the orchard's workshop?"

Guan Qin Chao thought that there were still people who had seen those murderers.

"The emperor only needs to find those people, and they will naturally know what the person who killed Xiaohai's family looks like."

Guan Qin Chao can't care about anything else, now this is just to cooperate with the emperor to investigate the case, it doesn't mean that he has already confessed.

Gu Gangqian wronged him like this, he must be able to go back.

"To put it lightly, since they have shown their faces, they will definitely be hidden, so it is still possible to be exposed to the public, do you take everyone else for fools?"

Gu Gangqian didn't even look at Guan Qin Chao, although he didn't say that he was suspicious, he still looked like he was the murderer.

"The last general didn't take anyone for a fool, I just told the truth."

Guan Qin Chao was unwilling to deal with this Gu Gangqian in his heart, but he only considered that the emperor would make things more difficult if he didn't cooperate, so he didn't do it.

Otherwise, who can trap him?

Now this carving insect trick is like a deceptive trick, if he goes to the scene, he will definitely be able to figure everything out in minutes.

"The facts? You will tell the facts, and those evidence will also tell the facts, if it weren't for all the things found in Xiangyang Village pointing to you, my father would not have been able to arrest you. ”

Gu Gangqian's pride is really difficult to hide.

He knew that Guan Qinchao had extremely strong investigative skills and a lot of methods, but the problem was that he had already been arrested as a suspect as soon as he returned to the city.

There is no place for his ingenuity to be played, Gu Shenyuan and Jiang Ruanyan are also imprisoned in the palace, and the people who can help him at the moment don't know where.

It no longer makes sense for Guan Qin Chao to struggle like this.

The moment he was handcuffed, he should have clearly realized what would happen to him.

It's stupid to still shout here.

"That's enough." The emperor interrupted their conversation in time.

"I will send someone to investigate the village you visited that night, and I will not point fingers at anyone until the evidence is conclusive."

The emperor can still do this.

"But you are now the first suspect in this case, and according to the rules, you can only be locked up in a dungeon for the time being." The emperor was also heartbroken, but there was no way.

"The last will obey."

Guan Qinchao believed that the emperor would return his innocence.

Looking at Guan Qinchao who was taken away, Gu Gangqian showed an evil smile.

Before anyone found out, he hurriedly turned back to the emperor and said, "Father, we must hurry up and find out this case, Guan Qin Chao is too cunning." ”

The emperor did not mean to agree.

"I remember that you didn't like to come into contact with generals since you were a child, so there hasn't been much contact between you and General Guan all along, why do you think he's cunning now?"

"Back to his father's words, although the sons are reluctant to contact the generals because most of them are vulgar, but for the smart people, of course the sons will pay attention silently."

At this time, a proper praise of Qin Chao can enhance her father's trust in her.

"General Guan has been on the border for many years, leading troops in a good way, and he also pays attention to strategy in combat, he is obviously a smart man, and his sons have observed many of his combat methods, which are very superb and worth learning."

He deliberately paused in this place.

"But such a smart person is easily delayed by a smart head."
