Chapter 421: Framed
() The man in black was lying on the roof, hearing the conversation between Gu Ziyuan and Bai Rong, he didn't doubt the truth, and he was afraid that he would be discovered by Gu Ziyuan, so he left.
After Gu Ziyuan found out that the man in black had left, he smiled at Bai Rong and did not speak.
"Ziyuan, do you think he will believe us?" Bai Rong was a little unsure, in her opinion, this conversation was really full of flaws.
"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, anyway, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, no matter who is behind the scenes, he can't cover the sky with one hand."
Gu Ziyuan was full of confidence when he said this, and Bai Rong's heart was relieved when he saw his determined expression. She should have more confidence in Gu Ziyuan.
The man in black went back overnight to restore his life, and at this time he knelt under the hall: "Tell the four princes, but I didn't find the token." Gu Ziyuan and the others didn't seem to find any clues. ”
Gu Zongtang listened to it and thought for a while, he and Gu Ziyuan had fought so many times, and Gu Ziyuan was not a person who was easy to pester.
"It seems?" Gu Zongtang asked rhetorically, and without waiting for the man in black to answer, he said to himself, "Yes, Gu Ziyuan is a thoughtful person, even if he finds a clue, he won't let us know." ”
"The Four Princes, the villain." The man in black was a little flustered, he was a little afraid that the four princes would think that he was incompetent.
The fourth prince waved his hand and interrupted him, "I don't hold you accountable now, you come here, I have other things to tell you." ”
The man in black crawled to Gu Zongtang's lap like this and leaned his ear over.
Gu Zongtang whispered in his ear, and the man in black was a little surprised when he heard it, and his eyes widened.
"Okay, you just do it." After saying this, Gu Zongtang waved his hand and asked him to go down, "Be clean, don't let Gu Ziyuan find out." ”
The man in black obeyed the order, said goodbye to Gu Zongtang, and left.
Looking at the figure of the man in black in the distance, Gu Zongtang's eyes were full of ruthlessness, he didn't believe that he could let Gu Ziyuan escape this time.
Gu Ziyuan has been sending people to secretly investigate that token belongs to the prince in the past few days, but he has not yet received the results.
However, since he already knew that this matter was interfered by the prince, he also had a general suspicion in his heart, either Gu Yuantang or Gu Zongtang, Gu Yuantang, as the crown prince, would not do these things that threatened his position as the crown prince, and now it seems that Gu Zongtang has the biggest suspicion.
Gu Ziyuan sent someone to keep an eye on Gu Zongtang
Whereabouts, for the time being, I haven't found anything strange.
Gu Ziyuan is now out of such a situation, although he feels that Gu Zongtang may be the mastermind behind the scenes, but he has not found evidence, and the only evidence token has not yet been found out, so there is no way to start.
Because it was the official silver that was robbed, and the person who robbed the official silver this time was too rampant, he actually killed the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, the emperor was furious and ordered that the case must be solved as soon as possible.
Although Gu Ziyuan believed in his own ability, these did put a lot of pressure on him.
Bai Rong felt a little sorry for Gu Ziyuan, and usually tried his best in eating and drinking, trying to let him have a good appetite after a tiring day.
Gu Ziyuan didn't see Bai Rong's good intentions, and tried to let himself eat more every time, so as not to let Bai Rong worry so much.
It was noon, and the weather was gloomy but rainless.
Gu Ziyuan had been reading those case records all morning, Bai Rong really couldn't stand it, so he pulled him out of the study and asked Gu Ziyuan to walk with her.
"Come out for a walk with me, you've been here all morning, and you should be tired."
Gu Ziyuan looked at Bai Rong's worried eyes, and couldn't say anything to refuse, so he had to agree.
Because Gu Ziyuan was concerned about the case, Bai Rong and Gu Ziyuan did not go far, but only went to the pond near Gu Ziyuan's study.
The lotus flowers in the pond have long withered, and they are not very good-looking, but just like this, looking at these withered lotus flowers in the pavilion with Bai Rong, Gu Ziyuan also felt that his mood was not so depressed, probably because his loved one was by his side, so he was happy no matter what scenery he saw.
Just as Gu Ziyuan was immersed in this rare tranquility, the housekeeper of the mansion hurriedly ran over and interrupted this rare moment of leisure.
"Master, it's not good, the fourth prince brought a bunch of people to search the mansion, and now they have come to the mansion."
Gu Ziyuan and Bai Rong glanced at each other, they were worried about not knowing how to find the evidence, this evidence couldn't help but reveal flaws.
Gu Ziyuan pretended to hurriedly follow the housekeeper to the front hall, and Bai Rong, as Gu Ziyuan's wife, also hurriedly followed.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the hall, he saw Gu Zongtang's villain sitting on a high position with a smug smile on his face.
After all, he is the prince, and Gu Ziyuan no longer likes him, so he can only salute him.
Gu Zongtang watched Gu Ziyuan salute him, his heart was even more excited, and his whole face turned red.
He originally wanted to make things difficult for Gu Ziyuan, but after all, there was a minister sent by the emperor who came with him, and he didn't dare to go too far, so he let him get up after Gu Ziyuan saluted.
"I don't know why the fourth prince and the monk Shangshu came to the Weichen Mansion? Wechen had been bothering about the silver robbery before, and he didn't know what was happening these days. ”
Gu Ziyuan said neither humbly nor arrogantly, although his tone sounded correct, showing respect for them, but his back was straight.
"Gu Ziyuan, you don't have to pretend, we already have the evidence that you robbed the official bank, and now if you take the initiative to admit your mistake, you can also fight for a reduction in punishment."
Gu Zongtang was aggressive, his face was full of pride, and when he thought of Gu Ziyuan being caught, he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.
"Weichen doesn't know what the fourth prince is talking about, please make it clear." Gu Ziyuan pretended not to understand and continued to ask.
"You!" Gu Zongtang was angry with Gu Ziyuan, as if you were arguing with you, your side was arguing with red faces, while the other side was lightly telling you, he didn't hear it just now.
Lord Shangshu next to him couldn't stand it anymore, and said loudly: "Gu Ziyuan, now I suspect that you have something to do with that silver robbery, and we need to search your mansion."
When Gu Ziyuan heard this, he pretended to be panicked and explained: "Master Shangshu, Gu is the official in charge of that case, if it was really Gu who did it, why should Gu keep bothering about it?"
Li Shangshu is an iron-faced and selfless person, and after listening to Gu Ziyuan's words, he replied coldly: "These all depend on the final evidence, what you said is just one side, I can't believe it." At this point, Gu Ziyuan could only agree to let them search the mansion.
Bai Rong followed Gu Ziyuan's footsteps into the hall after Gu Ziyuan, and sat next to Gu Ziyuan after saluting the two people on the high position.
After listening to it all the way, I couldn't help but secretly sigh that fortunately I had a careful eye at the beginning, otherwise I am afraid that the Yellow River would not be able to be washed clean now.
It didn't take long for the man who went to search to come back and bring back a box.
As soon as Gu Zongtang saw this box, he immediately jumped up from his seat and scolded loudly: "Gu Ziyuan, you still said that you didn't rob the official silver, what is this box?"
