Although Gao Changgong's tone was not hurried, however, the cold Shura mask made people feel like they were in hell.

"Your Highness, spare your life...... The lower official is guilty, it is the lower official who has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, and I ask His Royal Highness for forgiveness......"

The bones of the entire arm were almost broken by Gao Changgong, and Taiwei Liu's whole body was convulsed in pain, and he kept begging Gao Changgong for mercy.

Gao Changgong leaned over slightly, picked up the saber of Taiwei Liu from the ground, pulled out the scabbard, and looked at the cold blade faintly, his voice was still calm as if he had never been angry, "Do you want this king to forgive you?" ”

"Your Highness...... As long as you are willing to forgive the lower official this time, the lower official will definitely ...... in the future The emperor has good words for you......"

"Huh."

A cold sneer flashed from under the mask.

"If Your Highness can't trust the lower officials, the lower officials can swear ......"

Gao Changgong got up slowly, his gaze swept coldly from the blade, and then the blade suddenly turned, and the blade pointed directly at Taiwei Liu's neck.

"Your Highness...... What do you mean by that? The lower officials were terrified......"

"Do you really think that this king will not dare to kill you?"

Taiwei Liu's legs trembled, and the blade of the sword pointed at him was extremely sharp.

This sharpened his sword with him.

If Gao Changgong exerts a little force, Taiwei Liu's head will be moved.

"Your Majesty really didn't really want to offend your staff, Your Highness, did you really want to kill me for a small staff? If His Royal Highness is willing to make friends with his lower officials, in the future, the officials in the court will be the head of His Royal Highness......

"Pretty words, enough of that?"

"The lower official just told the truth, how it is beneficial to His Highness, His Highness is a smart person, so he naturally understands."

"This king naturally knows what this king wants, and I don't need you to tell me."

Gao Changgong's words fell, and Taiwei Liu's face was happy, it seemed that Gao Changgong was moved by him.

Immediately, a flattering smile appeared on his face, "Your Highness is wise, and your officials and righteous brothers will do their best to cooperate with Your Highness's ......."

"You may have misunderstood what this king meant."

"Huh?" ”

Gao Changgong's hand holding the sword suddenly slanted, and a cut was made on Taiwei Liu's neck in an instant.

Bright red blood spilled out.

Taiwei Liu was dumbfounded on the spot.

"Your Highness, don't, don't kill me...... You, whatever you want, I can give you...... Don't kill me...... Don't kill me......"

"Anything can be given to this king?"

"Anything can be, as long as Your Highness bypasses the little one's life, money, beauty, anything will be given to you......"

"Huh."

"Your Highness...... Xiaguan is serious......"

"This king is also serious. It's just that the money and beauty you promised this king are not rare in this king. ”

"So, what do you want, Your Highness? As long as it is within the power of the lower officials, they will do their best to achieve it for His Royal Highness...... As long as Your Highness spares a small life......"

"Since you are so sincere, this king will fulfill you. As long as you cut off one hand and one foot, this king can spare you from death. ”

"Your Highness, why do you have to be like this......

"What? I want this king to help you" Gao Changgong's voice was cold, "Don't blame this king for not reminding you, if this king makes a move, I'm afraid it will be as simple as breaking one hand and one foot, are you sure?" ”

"Xiaguan...... Do it yourself......"

"In that case, Mrs. Liu, please."

Gao Changgong sneered and took the sword off Taiwei Liu's neck and handed it to Taiwei Liu.

Captain Liu trembled his hands and took the sword.

It's just that a touch of murderous intent flashed in his eyes in an instant, and the sword in his hand suddenly stabbed towards Gao Changgong.

"Gao Changgong! You deceive people too much! Go to hell! ”

"Huh." Gao Changgong seemed to have expected that Taiwei Liu would have such a hand, and when the sword stabbed at him, he had already slashed at Taiwei Liu's heart with one palm.

"Bang Dang"

At the same time as the sword body landed on the ground with a crisp sound, Taiwei Liu fell straight down.

Blood was still spurting out of his mouth.

Gao Changgong didn't look at the dead Lieutenant Liu, but looked back at the thin man who was lying on the ground and was disheveled.

There was a thin anger in his eyes under the mask.

"Self-inflicted."

took the robe and draped it on Gu Zimo's body, picked up Gu Zimo, turned around and walked to the door, stretched out his hand and pushed the door open, and Su Zhejiang had already dealt with those Taiwei Liu's attendants outside the door.

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

Su Zhe was afraid that His Highness would make a mistake, after all, His Highness had only been seriously injured.

looked at Gao Changgong a little nervously, and saw that Gao Changgong had no other injuries except for the slight wrinkles on the clothes on his body.

Looking inside, when he saw Taiwei Liu's body, Su Zhe's face turned pale instantly, "Your Highness, you, kill Taiwei Liu?" ”

"Hmm."

"This ...... He is the prime minister's brother-in-law, and his power is tilted towards the government and the opposition...... Originally, there was a rift between His Royal Highness and His Majesty, if it was because of the death of Taiwei Liu, it would be counted on His Royal Highness's head, which would ...... I'm afraid it's not good for Your Highness......"

"Insulted the king's staff, he doesn't deserve to die?"

"That's not what the minister meant, it's just that he shouldn't die in Your Highness's territory, which will give others a handle."

"This matter, this king has his own decision, when Gu Zimo wakes up, let him hand over the blood book, and other things, this king will hand over to Hu Lu Suda to do."

"It turns out that Your Highness, you have already made a decision, and it is Wei Chen who has been thinking about it a lot......"

Gao Changgong didn't say anything more, and slowly walked out towards the main gate of Yingge Garden.

When Gu Zimo woke up, he was actually in Gu's house.

It's been a long time since he's looked back at home.

Familiar yard, familiar furnishings, but I didn't see familiar parents.

I got up and walked around the yard and didn't see anyone else.

Strange, what happened after he fainted in Yingge Garden that night?

My mind went blank, and I couldn't remember what was going on.

After a moment's hesitation, he planned to go and see Changqing.

I don't know if Taiwei Liu is embarrassed to be evergreen.

It's not good to do things yourself, I'm just afraid that Changqing will be there......

When I arrived at Changqing Cloth Village, I saw Changqing was in a daze at the counter.

"Little Aoko ......"

"Zimo? What are you doing here? ”

"I promised you to ask Gao Changgong to let him deal with Taiwei Liu, but I didn't expect him to refuse, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you......"

Gu Zimo lowered his head, looking ashamed of Changqing.

Chang Qing looked at Gu Zimo's appearance, but got up with a smile and helped Gu Zimo to the chair, "Have you drunk too much and haven't woken up yet?" ”

"I didn't drink......"

"Don't tell me about Captain Liu's death, you don't know."

"What do you say? Taiwei Liu, he, dead? ”

Gu Zimo's eyes widened, "He, he, he's really dead?" ”

Before he fainted that night, Taiwei Liu was obviously still ......

"I'm lying to you, he's really dead, and the body has probably been transported back to Yecheng."

He ...... How did he die? ”

Gu Zimo was suddenly a little worried, if he found Taiwei Liu's body in Yingge Garden, wouldn't his actions be exposed?

"I heard that he was killed by a bandit."

"Bandits?" Gu Zimo remembered that the bandits outside the city had been suppressed by Gao Changgong.

"Zimo, do you think it's really the bandits?"

Gu Zimo didn't know what it was, "It should be, yes." ”

If it weren't for the bandits, he couldn't think of someone who dared to kill the court officials so boldly.

"I heard that those thieves who killed Liu Taiwei were exterminated overnight by His Royal Highness the King of Lanling, and this time His Royal Highness the King of Lanling exterminated the thieves, and came to eliminate the harm for the people, and came to avenge the imperial court official Liu Taiwei."

"Humph! Gao Changgong knows how to take advantage of loopholes to pick up leaks! This time, if it weren't for the bandits, would he have been able to pick up such a big bargain? Now he must rush to His Majesty to ask for credit! ”

Hearing this, Chang Qing shook his head, "Zimo, you're still too shallow to see affairs." ”

"I only know that now that your crisis is lifted, the big stone in my heart can be considered to land!"

Gu Zimo stretched out with a relaxed face, "Do you want our brothers to have a drink?" ”

"Another day, Zimo, you have more important things to do now."

"What's the matter?"

"Although Taiwei Liu died, his brother-in-law is the prime minister today, one person is above ten thousand people, and even today's saints all listen to him, and the prime minister has always been jealous of His Royal Highness the King of Lanling, and this time his brother-in-law died in His Highness's territory, do you think that the prime minister will let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to deal with His Royal Highness the King of Lanling?"

"This ......"

"Do you have the key I gave you, do you keep it safe?"

"Yes, I'll give it to you."

"No need, you give this thing to His Royal Highness King Lanling, he should know how to do it."

"Give it to Gao Changgong?"

"Actually, there is a list in that blood book, if this thing can be presented to the Emperor Taishang, then, even if the saint is bewitched by the prime minister and wants to be unfavorable to His Royal Highness, the Emperor Taishang will exonerate His Royal Highness the King of Lanling."

"I don't want to go."

"Zimo ......"

"I went to beg Gao Changgong that day, he actually rejected me, he didn't treat me as his own person at all, he didn't even save you when he saw death, I didn't want to care about his life or death. If the prime minister wants to deal with him, let Gao Changgong take it by himself, anyway, I don't plan to continue to be his staff. ”

"Zimo, are you really confused or fake? Do you really think that Captain Liu's troops are something that the bandits can deal with? ”

Chang Qing's words made Gu Zimo confused.

"Didn't you just say that it was the bandits who killed Taiwei Liu?"

"This is the official response given by the city officials, do you believe that is really the case?"

"What the hell are you trying to say?"

"Although the King of Lanling rejected you in name, he should still make a move, Zimo, you should be for me, don't play a child's temper with the King of Lanling, this time the involvement is too big, if you can't strike first, His Royal Highness the King of Lanling will really fall into a passive situation, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the people of the entire Yongcheng City will not escape the revenge of the traitor. That kind of situation is definitely not what you and I want to see. ”

"I ...... Got it......"

Leaving from Chang Qing, Gu Zimo rode directly to the other courtyard.

When he arrived at the courtyard, Su Zhe seemed to be waiting for him.

"Master Gu, you can count it back."

"Your Highness, is he there?"

"Yes."

"Master Su, there is something Zimo wants to ask you."

"Master Gu, please speak."

"Regarding the death of Taiwei Liu, is it really the bandits? Or is it that His Highness ......?"

Gu Zimo's mood suddenly became indescribably nervous at this moment.

He hoped it was Gao Changgong and hoped it wasn't.

If it was Gao Changgong, how should he thank Gao Changgong for his rescue?
