Chapter 300: A Shame Before the Snow
Gu Qingyu is a very proud person, she wants her wedding to make everyone pay attention, so that she will be ashamed.
When Liu Qingshao's subordinates reported these things to her, her eyes were full of coldness.
After she hurt herself, she still wanted to get married in a beautiful way, did she ask herself and Xiao Hanyin?
At this time, Xiao Hanyin's people caught the subordinates who helped Gu Qingyu deliver a message to the mysterious person.
That person has disappeared since Liu Qingshao was poisoned.
Xiao Hanyin has been sending people to investigate his whereabouts.
He was worried that the other party would be killed by Gu Qingyu, after all, only the dead were the most trustworthy.
However, Xiao Hanyin's movements were very fast, and he saved that person before Gu Qingyu was about to kill him.
The other party is also a smart person, and he knows that in the current situation, only Xiao Hanyin and his wife can protect him.
In fact, he guessed from the beginning that after he passed the message, Gu Qingyu would probably not let him go.
So, after the incident, he designed to escape.
It's a pity that he underestimated Gu Qingyu's strength, so that she finally found her.
He thanked Xiao Hanyin for saving his life, and soon told him everything.
In fact, Liu Qingshao and he already knew the truth, and the reason why he wanted to find out this person was just to let him testify against Gu Qingyu.
To this, the man agreed without saying a word.
Gu Qingyu almost killed him, so naturally he wouldn't defend her anymore......
Now there are human and material evidence, but it is not easy to completely bring down Gu Qingyu, after all, her father's status is not low, and he has been in the DPRK for many years, and he has already established a strong network.
Xiao Hanyin is only a fifth-grade official at the moment, and many things can't be done as he wants.
So, he could only secretly find the emperor and the crown prince and tell them what Gu Qingyu had done.
The emperor and the crown prince were very unhappy about this, after all, Liu Qingshao was an imperial businessman, and he could provide them with a lot of good things every year, and Liu Qingshao also contributed a lot to the taxes in the treasury.
Now, she cooperates with the prince and does business together, which makes the prince's hands a lot more relaxed.
If Liu Qingshao is gone, he will have fewer people who can provide him with silver.
The prince is the person who doesn't want Liu Qingshao to have an accident the most except for Xiao Hanyin.
"Gu Shangshu has made a lot of contributions in the court for so many years, if you don't have enough evidence, you can't shake the Gu family!" Prince Road.
"Weichen knows, but Gu Shangshu's daughter is too vicious, this time she poisoned and murdered Neizi, maybe next time Weichen will be folded in her hands!" If such a dangerous character is not removed, how can Xiao Hanyin feel at ease.
"If you can find out that the Gu family has done something unfavorable to the imperial court, I won't interfere in this matter!" This is the emperor's biggest concession.
In the end, Gu Qingyu provoked this matter first, and Liu Qingshao has not woken up yet, if he chooses to suppress the matter, it will definitely chill Xiao Hanyin's heart.
Although the emperor attaches great importance to Shangshu, he will not blindly protect his shortcomings.
If his daughter makes a mistake, she must take it upon herself.
Of course, if Gu Shangshu is willing to kill his relatives in righteousness, he will also look at the past feelings and ask Xiao Hanyin not to get along with the people of the Gu family......
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xiao Hanyin was waiting for his words.
Although he knew that the emperor would not necessarily favor the Gu family, Gu Shangshu was indeed a trouble.
Subsequently, Xiao Hanyin began to investigate Gu Shangshu.
However, Gu Shangshu was honest and honest, loyal to the court and the emperor, and did not do anything to endanger the court.
After Xiao Hanyin checked his past, he was in a bad mood.
If he had never done anything that violated the laws of the imperial court, then the emperor would definitely not pursue the Gu family.
At that time, Gu Shangshu will definitely spare no effort to keep his daughter, and they will inevitably fight to the death.
Xiao Hanyin wanted to solve the matter quickly and not give Gu Qingyu a chance to stay out of the matter.
So, Xiao Hanyin investigated Gu Shangshu's past, and found that Gu Shangshu had indeed not harmed the imperial court, but he had done a lot of things to accept bribes and secretly shelter his subordinates.
In fact, these things are not too serious, and they will pass with one eye and one eye closed.
After all, there are many ministers in the DPRK who have done the same thing.
They both know each other in their hearts, so they will cover it up secretly, as long as the emperor does not pursue it, the matter will pass.
Gu Shangshu is a person who protects his shortcomings, so if his subordinates secretly commit a crime, as long as the matter is not very big, he will find a way to suppress it.
Even if the emperor knows about these things, he will not be severely punished.
However, Xiao Hanyin plans to use these things to make some fuss.
Gu Qingyu wants Liu Qingshao's life, and this matter will never be good.
Xiao Hanyin plans to make an example of chickens and monkeys, so that everyone knows that no one can bully his wife, lest there are still those who are not interesting and want to make a stumbling block in secret.
So, Xiao Hanyin deliberately handed over all the evidence he collected to the emperor.
After the emperor saw what Gu Shangshu had done, he was a little unhappy.
However, his merit was in the imperial court, and the emperor didn't want to dispose of Gu Shangshu directly for these trivial things, after all, although he accepted bribes, the amount was not much. vp
After he pondered for a while, he directly announced Gu Shangshu into the palace.
"Gu Aiqing, how many years have you been an official in the court?" The emperor glanced at him and said.
"Back to Your Majesty, Wechen has been an official for twenty-five years!" Gu Shangshu felt that the emperor's eyes were a little strange when he looked at him, so he immediately raised a touch of defense in his heart.
"In that case, you should know what to do and what not to do, right?" The emperor's eyes were slightly cold.
"Weichen will be cautious in his words and deeds in the future, and he will never live up to His Majesty's trust!" Gu Shangshu began to break out in a cold sweat on his spine.
The emperor suddenly told him this, and it was clear that he knew something.
Over the years, he has indeed made some small moves in private, but they are harmless, and he dares to do anything that will anger the emperor.
The most important thing to be an official in the court is to be cautious in words and deeds, and not to be easily caught.
Gu Shangshu thought that he had always done a good job, but he didn't expect to be known by the emperor.
"There are some things that I can tolerate, but there are some things that I will never tolerate!" The emperor said coldly, "I heard that there is a happy event going to be held in your mansion recently?" ”
"Yes, Weichen's little daughter is about to get married!" Gu Shangshu said tremblingly.
"When is the date?" The emperor said tentatively, "Have you father and daughter been preparing a dowry recently?" ”
"The little girl has been brutal and willful since she was a child, and now she has found someone who is happy with each other, she happily embroiders the wedding dress at home every day, as for the dowry, Weichen and Neiko have long been prepared!" Since his daughter was married, few people have come to propose marriage.
Everyone in the imperial city knew about this matter, and now the emperor suddenly asked about Gu Qingyu, which made him feel a trace of doubt in his heart......
"Marrying a daughter is a great event, Gu Aiqing must prepare well, don't let some miscellaneous things disturb this marriage!" The emperor hinted.
"Yes, Weichen will be cautious and will never let the marriage go wrong!" After Gu Shangshu talked to the emperor for a while, he already felt that the emperor was testing himself, and the matter was probably related to his daughter.
Otherwise, the emperor would not have suddenly mentioned his daughter.
After all, apart from being concerned about his daughter's marriage, the emperor has never asked about other women's marriages.
Therefore, Gu Shangshu has been answering very carefully, for fear that if his words are a little careless, the emperor will doubt his daughter.
After Gu Shangshu left, the emperor immediately secretly found Xiao Hanyin.
"I have already tested Gu Shangshu, and he has no idea what his daughter is doing!" The emperor didn't care about Gu Qingyu's life or death at all.
However, he had to take care of Gu Shangshu.
Although he has done some wrong things, he has always been faithful to himself, and it would be unfair to be angry with him for what his daughter did.
"Even if Gu Shangshu doesn't know about it, he has no way to teach his daughter, and it is also a fact that he accepts bribes and secretly shelters his protégé!" Xiao Hanyin heard the meaning of the emperor's words.
The emperor wanted him not to hold on to this matter, and Xiao Hanyin was very angry about it.
If Gu Shangshu was really clean, he would never pursue it.
However, he also did a lot of bribery in private, and an official with unclean hands and feet, even if he really made merit to the court, could not offset what he had done.
Xiao Hanyin is an upright and strong person, and he is most unaccustomed to a villain like Gu Shangshu who is sanctimonious on the surface.
"The person who poisoned it is Gu Qingyu, this matter has nothing to do with the rest of the Gu family, I don't want it to be too big!" The emperor didn't see the dissatisfaction in his heart.
Liu Qingshao was poisoned, he was angry in his heart, and these emperors understood.
However, there is no need to implicate more people in a small matter, Gu Shangshu has no way to teach his daughter, and he will be punished.
"What does the emperor mean is that he wants to let the ministers settle down?" Xiao Hanyin's face darkened.
"One person does things and one person is responsible, Gu Shangshu's daughter's mistakes are naturally borne by herself!" The emperor secretly pressured.
"If she can't raise her godfather, without Gu Shangshu's connivance, how can she have such courage, not to mention that Gu Shangshu is not a person who comes out of the mud and is not stained!" Xiao Hanyin's words were full of sarcasm.
He understood the emperor's thoughts, but he didn't want to swallow it.
Gu Shangshu's father and daughter both wanted to get out of this matter.
"Are you questioning me?" After hearing Xiao Hanyin's words, the emperor's face sank.
As the king of a country, his words are holy decrees, and no one dares to disobey them.
Xiao Hanyin openly contradicted himself, and even ignored his orders, wanting Gu Shangshu to be punished together, and the emperor was very angry.
"Wechen just wants them to bear the consequences for their actions!" Xiao Hanyin understood the truth that rigidity is easy to break.
However, whoever makes Liu Qingshao uncomfortable, they don't have to think about it.
The existence of the Gu family has threatened Liu Qingshao's safety, and Xiao Hanyin does not want to leave a disaster.
After all, Gu Shangshu's pampering of his daughter was known to everyone in the imperial city.
If they dispose of Gu Qingyu this time and let Gu Shangshu go, there will definitely be trouble in the future.
Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao didn't like trouble, so he planned to completely defeat the Gu family at one time, so that they would not have the ability to fight back.
Who knew that the first person to stop him turned out to be the emperor.
"How can this be reasonable, what Gu Qingyu did, there is no need to implicate her father at all, Xiao Hanyin, you are obviously unreasonable!" The emperor was furious.
"Is it Weichen who is making trouble unreasonably, or is the emperor you want to protect your shortcomings?" Xiao Hanyin said with a hint of darkness in his eyes.
The emperor's approach made Xiao Hanyin quite unhappy.
He didn't fully show it, and he was already very restrained......
