Chapter 278: I Knew Today, Why Bother in the First Place

Ming Yan quickly returned, holding a pen and paper in his hand, Gu Chengyu asked Guo Shi a few questions. After Guo Shi took refuge with the eldest prince, the eldest prince asked him to hold a letter imitating handwriting, and the court falsely accused Wan Xuenian and Song Shujing, and promised that he would be promoted at that time.

"So you mean to say that the fraud case is not a fiction at all? And how did you get the private seal? Why did you frame Song Shujing again? Although Song Shujing is not his serious father-in-law, he is also the father of his side concubine, and his official position is not low, why did he cut off his arm? Who are your so-called adults? ”

Gu Chengyu asked a few questions with a face, and Guo Shi thought about it for a while before answering them one by one.

"Wanfu naturally has an internal response placed by the eldest prince, and it is not difficult to take a private seal and seal it, as for which internal response, I don't know. Speaking of Song Shujing, we have to talk about the adult, he used a plan to make the concubine of the Song Mansion become the concubine of the second prince. The eldest prince is suspicious by nature, and suspects that Song Shujing secretly took refuge in the second prince. Later, two more things happened, and the eldest prince was even more sure that Song Shujing had defected to the second prince, so he was easily resolved. ”

Gu Chengyu nodded when he heard this, what kind of trick did he use, he could also think of it, between men and women, it was easiest to have accidents, which he was not interested in.

As for the other two things, it reminded him of the last time Yin Kun said that the eldest prince wanted to insert his own people into the household, but he was intercepted by the second prince's people.

The eldest prince was very angry, maybe he thought that Song Shujing was carrying him behind his back and had said something to the emperor.

The eldest prince is suspicious by nature, so it is not surprising that he would be so suspicious. It's just that her heart is too ruthless, but Song Shujing has planned a lot of things for the eldest prince.

"You said until now, and you didn't mention who that adult is?" Compared to the eldest prince, he was more curious about who the adult was. This person is not low in strategy, and he even played with the princes in applause.

Guo Shi shook his head, "I don't know, every time we meet, it's a different place, he stands behind the curtain, I only hear the voice, I haven't seen anyone." ”

Gu Chengyu felt incredible, he didn't even see anyone, Guo Shi could do things for him? He doesn't know what to say, I'm afraid there is a hole in his brain, right?

"What benefits did he give? Get you promoted? But I see that you are still a fourth-grade official now, and you have not been promoted, how do you get in touch? ”

"He gave some benefits first, and gave my eldest son an official position as Zuo Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, and promised me that as long as I do things for him in the future, I can get a lot of benefits."

Guo Shi's eldest son is not a martial artist, and it is not easy to get an official position of the fifth grade.

Gu Chengyu thought about it for a while, this adult was either a high-ranking official in the court, or the official position of the person behind him was not low. The only people in the DPRK who can have this ability are those few people.

Gu Chengyu took the confession recorded by Ming Yan and looked at it, and found that there was nothing missing. It's just that that's not enough.

"Lord Guo, you don't think that you can make the emperor and the ministers of the court believe you just by relying on these confessions, right? You've got to show some sincerity. ”

Gu Chengyu doesn't think that a person who retracts his confession will be easily believed by everyone. Of course, we have to come up with evidence, just like Wanfu and Songfu, which also found the so-called incriminating evidence.

Guo Shi thought about it, the eldest prince was very careful and didn't reveal much to him. He was a little anxious, he was still complacent before, thinking that the eldest prince already trusted him very much, but it turned out that he was just an insignificant little chess piece.

Gu Chengyu pondered for a moment, since it was a reversal of the case, it needed human and physical evidence.

"Do you know who imitated the handwriting on those letters? Do you have any correspondence with the Great Prince? Do the letters you send in Wanfu contain any content about recruitment? Is this matter implicated in the three princes? ”

Gu Chengyu recalled, since the eldest prince still wanted to frame the third prince, first, he mentioned this matter in those letters, which required the movement of silver, but two million taels of silver, it was all made up.

Therefore, the eldest prince may make a fuss about Wan Xuenian, and if he wants Wan Xuenian to admit it, it is naturally impossible, which requires grasping Wan Xuenian's sore feet. What can hold the snow year? Of course, it's the heir of the Wan family!

It seems that I must go to Dali Temple tonight, and Wan Xuenian's confession is very important.

Guo Shi suddenly thought, "I know that the eldest prince has a staff member next to him, and his handwriting is very similar to that of others." I never corresponded with the eldest prince, but he gave me a few sums of silver for this matter, totaling 50,000 taels. I kept an account for him, and in the outer study, my father knew where. ”

It seems that Guo Shi can't ask anything, and he is very dissatisfied with his confession this time. The eldest prince was very careful in his work, where did the dirty silver come from, and he didn't mention it to Guo Shi, but only asked Guo Shi to blame Wan Xuenian for these things.

However, since the eldest prince can get 200,000 taels of stolen goods, his hands and feet are definitely not clean. As long as Hu Maoshen follows these investigations, he can always find clues.

Besides, this matter can also be regarded as a political achievement for Hu Maoshen, and he thinks that Hu Maoshen will not refuse.

After ending the matter, Gu Chengyu ordered Li Zhuang and them to continue to take care of Guo Shi, and he had to talk to Hu Maoshen before he could hand over Guo Shi.

Before leaving, he let Guo Shi loosen his ties and drew the portrait of the staff. This person is also a key person, and perhaps this person knows more than Guo Shi.

Gu Chengyu took Hu Maoshen's signed confession and the letter sent to Wanfu out of the dark room, ready to go to Tianxiang Pavilion.

Mingmo has already asked people to go to Xiyan to deliver a letter, and ask Hu Maoqing to see him in Tianxiang Pavilion, and Xiyan will cover for him.

At this time, more than an hour had passed, and Gu Chengyu had agreed that it would be noon, and Hu Maoqing should be there.

Gu Chengyu suddenly thought that Guo Shi's father didn't know if he would believe it, he had to ask Guo Shi for a token.

He went back to the dark room, looked around Guo Shi, and found that he was wearing an official mansion at this time, and he was only wearing a Pisces jade pendant.

"You must take off your jade pendant, and I will bring it to your father. Otherwise, he probably won't trust my subordinates. If you don't cooperate, won't you delay the matter? ”

When Guo Shi heard this, he felt that what he said was reasonable. Looking at the jade pendant hanging on his waist, his eyes were a little moist. This jade pendant was given to him by his father a few days ago, saying that it was an object left by his old lady back then.

"He knew that this jade pendant was mine at a glance, although you sent the letter, I hope you will be the talker!" Guo Shi was grief-stricken, in fact, if he didn't send the jade pendant over, his father would believe it.

His father disagreed with him in the first place, saying that he was mutilating Zhongliang and that it was extremely risky. It was his insistence on going his own way that caused today's tragedy, affecting the whole family and innocent people.

Gu Chengyu glanced at him, then ripped off the jade pendant and turned to leave. If you knew today, why bother in the first place?

Out of the dark room, Gu Chengyu instructed Mingmo to take a few people and go to Guo's mansion to deliver a letter.

And asked Mrs. Guo to make a decision quickly, and let Mingmo buy a house for the person he wanted to keep, and settle it properly first. He can't send it away for the time being, and he can't be sure if Guo Shi will regret it.

As for that staff, he asked Mingmo to send someone to the eldest prince to keep an eye on him, even if he broke into the eldest prince's mansion at night, he would find out this person and arrest him.
