famous eldest daughter

Chapter 123 Rumors
After a long silence, Gu Yuqing calmed down her angry mood. Holding the silk handkerchief that had been twisted into a twist at some point, she asked in a deep voice, "Why did Prince Duan choose the Ninth Prince?"

When Lu Jiuzheng heard this, he was stunned for a moment as if he was thinking seriously. He shook his head and said, "I don't know. When I followed the prince, he had already chosen the Ninth Prince. The reason for this was never mentioned by Prince Duan."

What he really wanted to know was that he already knew that Gu Yuqing had no intention of staying in this dark, damp and cold cell for a while longer.

Holding on to Ji Xiang Ruyi, he came out of the cell top-heavy.

The scorching sun was shining outside, and the scorching sun fell on her body, scorching her uncomfortably, but she couldn't feel the slightest bit of warmth, and she was still bone-chillingly cold from head to toe.

At that time, Xiao Duo, who was shocked, also came out of the next room. His eyes were filled with huge joy and excitement, covering the sky and the earth.

God really favored him.

Having just lost the secret letter and put myself in danger, God sent such a generous gift.

How could he have thought that Prince Duan was behind the murder of the Gusu family.

My father has always respected the old general Gusu, and even now he often laments that there is no other family of loyal and brave generals in the court like the Gusu family.

If he knew about this, even if his father didn't know that Prince Duan was colluding with the South Vietnamese court, even if there weren't those secret letters, it would be enough for his father to crush him into ashes.

How could Xiao Duo not be excited!The steps he walked were as brisk as flying.

But in front of Gu Yuqing, Xiao Duo finally suppressed the proud look on his face and said to Gu Yuqing: "My condolences, the deceased has passed away, you still have to cherish it."

When Gu Yuqing heard this, there were dark clouds in his downcast eyes, he sneered at the corner of his mouth, raised his head and said, "I hope your highness will help me get rid of my enemy."

Saying these words to Xiao Duo, Gu Yuqing felt an overwhelming feeling of disgust in her heart. If it wasn't for the game she had planned in her heart, how could she say such words in front of this man.

After saying the unintentional words, Gu Yuqing couldn't resist the hatred in her heart, so she turned her head aside and stopped looking at Xiao Duo.

Xiao Duo was overjoyed when he heard this.

In the past, in order to get Gu Yuqing's help, he did not hesitate to devote himself to please Gu Yuhe and let him work for him in every possible way.

Later, Gu Yuqing found out about all this, and it became a lever for her to manipulate herself.

Coupled with the Zhao Bingde incident, Xiao Duo has gradually lost his interest in recruiting Gu Yuqing.

Now that Gu Yuqing suddenly said this, it gave him an excellent opportunity to turn around. From now on, he no longer had to be threatened by Gu Yuqing, but could use this matter to hold Gu Yuqing firmly in his hands.

He took care of the enemies of her grandfather's family for her, how could she not be grateful to him?
This kindness is the best yoke, enough to lock her to his side.

What's more, he was going to use this matter to get rid of King Duan.

Why not do it.

With this thought in his mind, Xiao Duo had a look of embarrassment on his face, "Prince Duan is very powerful, how can I easily shake him?"

Gu Yuqing sneered in her heart at Xiao Duo's hypocrisy and said: "His Highness also said that it cannot be shaken easily, that is, there is still a possibility of shaking. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I don't want to give up. I hope that Your Highness can help me. If Your Highness can help me, it will be a big deal." The ancestor's family has avenged blood. In front of the Queen Mother, I will always mention His Majesty's wiseness. Your Majesty also knows that Your Majesty is the most filial person today."

Although Gu Yuqing's words were not explicit, Xiao Duo was immediately overjoyed.

That's what he wanted to hear.

He immediately said: "Miss Gu is serious. General Gusu is a loyal and brave general of our court. He was killed by a traitor. Not only is Miss Gu hurt, but the king is also extremely uncomfortable in his heart. This hatred is not just the hatred of the Gu family. , it is the hatred of the imperial court, Miss Gu, don't worry, this king will definitely do his best."

Xiao Duo spoke with emotion and sincerity. Those who don't know the truth can easily be fooled by his hypocritical sincerity.

After listening to Xiao Duo's words, Gu Yuqing no longer wanted to stay here for even a moment. If she stayed any longer, she felt that she would not be able to bear the disgust in her heart and express it to her face.

"Thank you, Your Highness." After saying this hastily, Gu Yuqing turned around and left.

Just as he was about to lift his steps, he felt that it would be difficult to feel at ease if he didn't speak his mind clearly, so he stopped and turned around and said, "How does Your Highness plan to arrange Lu Jiuzheng's arrangements?"

Hearing this, Xiao Duo knew that Gu Yuqing had something to say and said, "What does Miss Gu have to say?"

Gu Yuqing did not refuse and said bluntly: "Since Lu Jiuzheng knows such secret things about Prince Duan, Prince Duan will not let him stay. Your Highness should make plans in advance."

Xiao Duo smiled and said, "Miss Gu and I have thought of the same place. Don't worry, Miss Gu. It involves the murder of the old general Gusu's family. I will never take it lightly. I will definitely place Lu Jiuzheng in a place where Prince Duan can't find it." Place to go.”

After hearing Xiao Duo's words, Gu Yuqing no longer had any worries. She said goodbye and got into the carriage with Ji Xiang Ruyi and left.

The carriage was getting further and further away, with eyebrows knitted and eyes closed, Gu Yuqing leaned on the pillow, the situation on her face changing.

More than ten years have passed since the incident, and this murderous case is finally coming to light.

But... Gu Yuqing knew very well that Lu Jiuzheng's words alone would not shake Prince Duan at all.

After all, he is the emperor's biological brother and the youngest son whom the Queen Mother loves very much.

With the Queen Mother favoring him, no matter how evil Prince Duan was, the most he could do was to be demoted and dismissed from office, which would not kill him at all.

Only when all of Prince Duan's crimes are exposed at once, and when the witnesses and physical evidence are available, can this sanctimonious and treacherous man with evil intentions be punished as he deserves.

At this time, she must work hard and not give the enemy a chance to breathe.

In the afternoon of that day, Xiao Duo compiled a copy of Lu Jiuzheng's confession and handed it to the emperor. This time, to be cautious, he did not mention anything about what Prince Duan did to the Gusu family in Qibei, nor did he mention anything about his collaboration with the enemy and treason. .

He only wrote in detail about Lu Jiuzheng's corruption and misdeeds over the years.

This was enough to kill Lu Jiuzheng. At that moment, the emperor issued a decree and ordered the Ministry of Punishment to behead Lu Jiuzheng in three days, with Xiao Duo personally supervising the execution.

Those officials provided by Lu Jiuzheng were also sentenced to different penalties according to the severity of the crime.

But while all this was going on, Xiao Duo let people out in private, vaguely mentioning that Lu Jiuzheng had secretly written a confession in prison, and Prince Duan was mentioned repeatedly in the book.

When the news reached Prince Duan's ears, Prince Duan was discussing with the palace staff whether to rescue Lu Jiuzheng. Upon hearing the news, Prince Duan's expression suddenly changed.

Regardless of whether the news was true or false, he could not let Lu Jiuzheng live another day in this world. The more he took a breath, the more he would stay on the tip of the knife.

Immediately, Prince Duan ordered the most powerful soldier in the palace to go to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment immediately and kill Lu Jiuzheng on the spot.

When a person dies, everything becomes clean.
