Chapter Seventy-Three: Make a Deal
When Zhao Guangzhi saw Changshu, she was the only one in the empty courtyard.
Because of the crime of murdering the princess, Zhao Guangzhi's wrists and ankles were shackled, he looked at Changshu silently, silently dragged the heavy shackles and slowly approached, and knelt down in front of Changshu: "See Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
Changshu looked at him with lowered eyes.
She has a good memory, and she still remembers the appearance when Zhao Guangzhi went to her house to propose marriage in Huai'an Village, when the extremely proud and conceited man and the silent and forbearant man in front of her seemed to be two people.
Although he didn't think he could do it, Changshu didn't have too much bad feeling about that incident, and he looked at him like he was looking at a frog at the bottom of a well, thinking that there was no need to worry too much about such a person, and he lost his identity in vain.
And he who does not know is not guilty.
He doesn't know his identity, no matter how arrogant and conceited he is, no matter how superior he has in front of a girl, he can't say that he is wrong, after all, men are like this, Changshu never thought that he would have other intersections with him.
It was one of the few times she had set her eyes on him.
"Is there anything you'd like to say?"
Zhao Guangzhi was silent for a moment, he didn't expect her to ask him so calmly.
Being condemned and punished, maybe it would be a little worse, Zhao Guangzhi even thought about how Her Royal Highness the princess who was angry would deal with him, the culprit, the only thing he didn't expect was that Changshu's attitude would be so calm.
Changshu looked at him with his forehead propped up: "You give Bengong a reason that Bengong can accept, maybe Bengong can spare your life." ”
Zhao Guangzhi lowered his head and said, "Minister...... Didn't know there was a problem with that glass. ”
"What do you mean...... Are you wronged? ”
Changshu's tone was a little cold: "You are a person under General Mo, since there are grievances, why don't you shout grievances?" He has always protected your shortcomings, and if you have a grievance, he will definitely protect you. ”
Zhao Guangzhi looked up at her, "After all, there is a problem with the wine handed over by the minister, this matter is not wronged, and it is ......"
He smiled, his smile was inexplicably a little sad: "Your Royal Highness doesn't know that I am the one who is installed in General Mo's military camp by the majority of the capital, how can General Mo really protect me." ”
Changshu frowned.
"It was I who murdered His Highness, His Highness wants to kill or chop, and the criminal ministers are at His Highness's disposal."
Changshu looked at him quietly for a long time.
Taking a sip of the tea in the cup, Changshu said calmly: "You haven't answered Bengong's question yet." ”
The man looked up at her in some surprise, obviously not understanding why she was so reluctant on the subject.
Changshu smiled, with a slight coldness in her smile, "Who instructed you to do this?" ”
Zhao Guangzhi was shocked, and the hands hanging by his side involuntarily clenched into fists.
Changshu didn't care about his silence, and said calmly: "If this matter is your own decision, then you should always have a purpose, that kind of medicine is absolutely unfriendly to a girl, and you can't act as the person who detoxifies the palace to get any purpose, so what are you doing this?" ”
Zhao Guangzhi looked up at her: "How does Your Highness know that I can't be the one who detoxifies?" ”
Changshu ignored him, and still spoke: "This is not good for you, you got into this position at a young age, how can you be called a handsome among people, in this case, you will definitely not do such an impulsive and stupid thing so easily." ”
"Of course, the most important thing is that this drug ...... With your abilities, you will never be able to get it. ”
No matter how good he is, no matter how good he is, he is just a very ordinary farmer, and the circle of communication is there, and it is impossible for him to stretch his hand too long.
Zhao Guangzhi fell silent.
Changshu said: "The medical skills of this palace are not to say that they are unique in the world, at least there are not many people who can stand side by side with this palace, since this medicine can make this palace unsuspecting, then the person who gave you this medicine should know this palace very well, ordinary drugs are useless to this palace, so I deliberately selected a drug that this palace is not familiar with, is this palace right?" ”
Zhao Guangzhi lowered his eyes: "It's just a coincidence." ”
Hearing his words, Changshu smiled, and his calm gaze fell on him, mixed with a sharp point that pointed directly at people's hearts: "This palace doesn't believe in such a coincidence. ”
"Although I don't know what your purpose is for giving this medicine to this palace, this palace doesn't believe in any coincidences."
If she believed in such a thing as coincidence, she would not have survived in the deep palace at all.
Changshu looked at him, her voice was quiet and cold, and she spoke word by word: "Zhao Guangzhi, you have scruples, so you don't dare to say it, right?" ”
Zhao Guangzhi suddenly raised his head and looked at him in shock.
The man, who had always behaved very silent and calm, finally changed his face at this moment.
Seeing this, Changshu was determined to be ten points in his heart.
She turned the cup in her hand, pondered for a moment, and said, "This palace doesn't have to pursue this matter, why don't we make a deal?" ”
Zhao Guangzhi bowed his head and was silent.
Changshu said lightly: "No matter what scruples you have, you must know that some things that seem difficult to you are easy for this palace, and this palace gives you the opportunity to choose." ”
Give him a chance to choose, and the crime of murdering the princess should be punished, Changshu can exempt him from the death penalty, and let him have no worries, but the condition is that he must tell everything he knows.
Zhao Guangzhi didn't think about it for long, he looked up at Changshu and asked, "What does Your Highness want to know?" ”
………………
When Xuan Mo received the news from the secret guard, Changshu's face was extremely gloomy.
The man who didn't like him knelt in front of her, although his face was expressionless, sweat was already faintly oozing from his forehead, and he didn't know how long he had been kneeling here.
Xuan Mo frowned, and before he could speak, he had already noticed something unusual.
Changshu's face was not quite right.
The last time he saw Changshu's gloomy face was when Changshu was facing the county lord of Qingping.
The county lord of Qingping is not sober at this time.
Xuan Mo walked as he pondered what was going on.
Walking to Changshu's side, he hesitated for a while, he still didn't like to salute others, so he just bowed slightly: "The minister has seen His Highness." ”
Changshu looked up at him: "What does General Mo think this person should do?" ”
Xuan Mo glanced at her without a trace.
Although he didn't like Changshu to call him General Mo so coldly, Xuan Mo didn't say anything, and he caught a glimpse of Changshu's hand holding the tea cup with white bones, and some cracks on the top of the fine celadon cup seemed to be clearly visible, and Xuan Mo suddenly wanted to know what was going on here.
