Chapter 146: I will widow him for the rest of my life

He Yao still remembers what a decent person Gu Zhizhou is.

Before he met her, he had never convicted a wrongful conviction or forgiven a criminal, but now he was willing to betray his conscience and integrity for her......

She held the key tightly for a long time before putting the key back on the bookcase, and said seriously: "Lord Xiao Gu doesn't have to do this for us, we have discussed, he committed so many sins in the early years, he deserves to be punished, he agreed with me that once he atones for his sins, he will be with me with dignity."

When Gu Zhuzhou heard this, he looked back at her.

The little girl stood in the room, delicate and pretty, full of righteousness.

But she was still young and inexperienced, and she didn't understand how harsh the punishment of Tiansi was, and the crimes committed by Yuan Yu were enough to make him die nine times.

He sneered unceremoniously, "Want to atone for your sins? When the atonement is over, I am afraid that there will be no corpse. According to Wei Jiuqing's methods, presumably in a few days, the rich gentry of the Eighteenth Road in the north will learn the news of Yuan Yu's arrest, and when they rush to Luojing, Yuan Yu will die a very miserable death. If you don't leave tonight, he will try to escape, but he will have no chance."

He Yao was stunned.

She hesitated for a long time and retorted: "There was a great drought in Liangzhou that year, and he stole it from Luojing to Chang'an, just to relieve the people. He has saved so many people, and the merits and demerits are not enough to save his life?"

Gu Zhuzhou looked at her quietly and did not speak.

He Yao bit her lip.

Yes, those rich gentry will not care whether they are relieved or not, they will only hate Yuan for stealing their belongings.

He Yao frowned, and when she thought of the ups and downs in the future, tears rolled down her cheeks.

She raised her sleeve to wipe her tears and choked up, "According to the Codex, he really deserves to die. But Lord Xiao Gu, you and I both know that he is not a bad person who has committed a heinous crime, and we also know that he is not guilty to death, and the code is not the standard for measuring everything. After all, the judge is a human being, a person with warmth, not a cold legal code!"

The judge is, after all, a person with warmth......

Gu Zhuzhou's heart beat suddenly.

Over the years, he punished the wicked according to the law, never showed mercy to anyone, and even his own sister laughed and teased, saying that he was a bodhisattva who did not smile in the temple, unapproachable, iron-faced, selfless, and harsh and fearful.

But a good judge should be feared, not feared.

He stared at He Yao, who was crying silently, and after a while, he said, "You're right."

He Yao hiccuped and raised her clear and crystalline apricot eyes, "So ......"

"It's not impossible to save him." Gu Zhuzhou paced around the study, "As far as I know from my investigation, in the years of the great drought in Liangzhou, the Guo family concealed the disaster and united with the rich gentry of the 18th Road to hoard grain and raise prices, and none of those rich gentry and businessmen were innocent. The property stolen by Yuan Yu was in fact ill-gotten gains."

He Yao said, "Is Lord Xiao Gu planning to take this point and threaten them to give up the investigation?"

"Yes."

He Yao thought about it for a while, and felt that this method was feasible.

"The top priority is to collect evidence, and I will send someone to the north to investigate and collect evidence." Gu Zhizhou sat down with his sleeves brushed up, picked up his pen and wrote the search warrant, "During the investigation, you must find a way to delay the trial."

He Yao nodded hurriedly, "I can't do anything else, it's okay to delay time!"

That's where the importance of networking comes in.

On the second day, He Yao went straight to the palace non-stop and told He Shenzhu about the situation.

Under the apricot blossom tree in the palace, she cried and fell on He Shenzhu's lap and coquettishly: "Sister knows my temper, I like Xiao Langjun, so he has to be in this life." Now that something has happened to him, Sister has to help me, otherwise I will have to widow him for the rest of my life!"
