Chapter 111: Retrial
Hearing this, the young man's face turned a little blue.
In order to skip this topic quickly, the young man said, "The girl that the old bustard of Mulan Lou is looking for for you will be sent to the mansion tomorrow." ”
"Got it." When Gu Fengyang heard this, he didn't seem as interested as before.
The next day, Gu Qingyue came to the inner hall as usual.
Compared with yesterday, Lu Huaijin's complexion looks better, but he can't get out of bed and walk around for the time being.
It also needs to be hung with Imperial Doctor Xu's decoction.
"How does the prince feel about his health today?" Gu Qingyue asked in a good mood.
"Thanks to Doctor Xu's excellent medical skills, I feel much better."
Lu Huaijin saw Gu Qingyue's face with joy, and asked, "Your Majesty's brows are stretched today, and his face is ruddy, didn't something good happen to you?"
Gu Qingyue smiled but did not answer.
"Let Weichen guess, it must be the state banquet going very smoothly!" Lu Huaijin smiled at her.
"No," Gu Qingyue shook her head, "It's because of you."
Gu Qingyue continued, "I'm happy because you look much better today. ”
Listening to Gu Qingyue's words, Lu Huaijin's eyes crossed with an imperceptible joy.
It shouldn't be his delusion, since he was poisoned, the emperor's care for him has increased day by day.
At this, he was happy from the bottom of his heart.
The emperor is a lady of the sky, and she is only ordered by the emperor to assist His Majesty to stand on a solid foundation.
For the emperor's love, how can you not be moved? But what will happen in the future, he himself is not sure.
But in another ten years, or even after this turmoil, the emperor will be able to stand firm in the court, that is, he is no longer useful, will the emperor still like himself as much as he does now?
Thinking of this, the smile on the corner of Lu Huaijin's mouth faded.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with it?"
Gu Qingyue, who noticed the abnormality, hurriedly asked with concern.
Lu Huaijin interrupted, "Your Majesty, how is the interrogation of the prisoners in prison?" Can you find out who is behind it?"
"Lord, do you remember that when I proposed a banquet to the people of the capital above the court, I was opposed by the courtiers?"
Lu Huaijin nodded slightly, and said with a worried expression, "Of course, at this time, it is possible to invite disasters to the people of the capital to open the country, and it is not surprising that it is opposed by the ministers." ”
"But there is one person who supports this decision." Gu Qingyue pursed her lips, looked at Lu Huaijin's eyes and said, "It's the Duke of Zhenguo." ”
"There are only two kinds of people who can immediately support my decision, either hoping that I will soon lose my heart, or they are stupid."
Lu Huaijin understood what Gu Qingyue meant, "However, based on this alone, it is difficult to conclude that Zhen Guogong is the mastermind behind it." ”
Gu Qingyue nodded, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a sneer, "So, this black-clothed man who sneaked up on you, I have to judge it." ”
"How does Your Majesty plan to try it, I heard that Master Hu has not been able to try it."
Even a veteran like Lord Hu can't ask, what can Your Majesty do with a weak woman?
Gu Qingyue's eyes darkened when she heard this, and she said unhurriedly, "Don't worry, I have my own way." ”
Gu Qingyue sat in front of the mahogany luodian mirror, and the woman's red lips and white teeth were reflected in the mirror, and the palace maid Hui'er combed her hair.
"Your Majesty, the spies who arranged for the entry into the Guogong Mansion have already done the work."
Hui'er said in a tactful voice, "Do you want to announce her in?" ”
"What? So fast," Gu Qingyue heard this, and her hand holding the silver-gilt phoenix hairpin paused slightly.
Then a smile bloomed at the corner of his lips, "Very good, let her in." ”
Through a curtain, a slender woman knelt respectfully, and first said softly, "Your Majesty is well." ”
Then he said, "The mother and son that Your Majesty is looking for are hidden in the Zhenguo Mansion, but the slave and maid have already arranged for them to leave the Zhenguo Mansion and hand them over to the servant. ”
The woman was articulate and spoke slowly, which made Gu Qingyue curious.
Hearing this, Gu Qingyue opened the curtain, glanced at the woman's appearance, and sighed, "It looks like a talented beauty, this thing is done well, stay by my side in the future." ”
The woman's face was overjoyed when she heard this, and she kowtowed and knelt down to thank her.
After the woman left, Gu Qingyue said to Hui'er, "Tell the servant Huai'en, take the mother and son, and follow me to the Three Law Division." ”
As soon as he entered the dungeon, a smell of rotting flesh entered his nose.
Gu Qingyue forcibly held back the discomfort of almost wanting to vomit, and followed the candle held by Hui'er, and carefully looked at the man who was tied to the pillar.
After several days of torture, the man was almost inhuman.
The skin all over his body is almost festering, and the scar on his neck is particularly prominent.
The closer Gu Qingyue got closer, the more obvious the disgusting smell of decay became.
Because of the candle light, the man's eyes, which had adapted to the darkness, narrowed uncomfortably under the stimulation of the bright light.
Gu Qingyue was not in a hurry, she just stared at this person's expression tightly, not letting it go at all.
It took about a moment for the man to fully adjust to the light in front of him.
When he saw the beautiful woman in front of him, he laughed out loud for no reason.
Because of the exaggerated laughter, the wound on his face was slightly torn open.
The whole person looks even more hideous and terrifying.
Hui'er, who was holding a candle lamp, couldn't help but tighten her heart when she saw this, and her hands trembled even with the candlelight.
On the contrary, Gu Qingyue seemed much calmer, and as she did last time, she reached out and stuck the man's chin.
The man was pressured to confront the person in front of him.
may rely on himself not to be afraid of death, and the man's reaction is very different from the last time.
Not only did he not be afraid, but he laughed even more wantonly.
Gu Qingyue waited quietly for him to finish laughing before he spoke, "What a good man, he is not even afraid of death, it seems that there is nothing in this world that you are afraid of." ”
After listening to Gu Qingyue's words, the man was a little unsure of what this woman was here for.
"Don't talk nonsense, if you want me to die, I'll be happy," the man spat a mouthful of blood, "What kind of ability is such a person in prison." ”
Gu Qingyue smiled when she heard this, "Don't worry, after today, I will naturally respond to you and give you a good time." ”
"As for now, don't worry," Gu Qingyue clapped her hands, "Before you die, I want you to meet your relatives first." ”
The man's originally dead eyes suddenly became vigilant when he heard this, but it was only for an instant.
Then he shouted, "Don't play any tricks, I've been an orphan since I was a child, and I don't have any relatives at all." ”
Gu Qingyue smiled at him like a steel knife scraping bones, "Don't be in a hurry to deny it first, whether it is or not, you will know when you see it." ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw a pair of figures walking slowly, and the man's heartbeat accelerated sharply as the figures of the two people entered.
When he took a closer look at the person in front of him, the whole person lost his life.
