Chapter 392
Gou Shengde explained very clearly. It could be said that almost everything he knew from the day he started working with Xiao Duo was explained.

However, as a secret guard, what he knew was limited after all. It was just the unscrupulous things he had done for Xiao Duo over the years.

However, these things can touch His Majesty's reverse scale and cause a huge uproar, but they cannot kill Xiao Duo with one blow. At most, he will be scolded and grounded for three or two months, and nothing will happen.

In Gou Shengde's confession, he didn't even know why Xiao Duo used Lu Jiuzheng to kidnap her.

Regarding this kidnapping case, Xiao Duo's role seemed to be just to provide strong and weak support for Lu Jiuzheng. Because Xiao Duo himself did not appear in the wooden house, so even if she took this evidence to confront Xiao Duo in court, He could put all the responsibility on Lu Jiuzheng.

With Xiao Duo's cunningness, he would not completely deny that he was wrong at all.

Gu Yuqing could even imagine how Xiao Duo would defend himself in the face of Gou Shengde's testimony.

All he had to do was say that he was confused and deceived by Lu Jiuzheng, and it would be over. He was His Majesty's biological son, and people's hearts were biased. No matter how angry His Majesty was, he would not find any way to accuse his son.

What's more, Xiao Duo must have already thought of a way out when he chose to use Lu Jiuzheng.

At present, floods are breaking out one after another, and Lu Jiuzheng sees neither dead nor corpses, so he just takes all the blame for Xiao Duo.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuqing sighed feebly in her heart.

Your Majesty, I am good at everything, decisive in killing, wise and courageous, helping the world, benevolent and caring for the people, but my emphasis on the royal face and my heart that always doubts everything are almost outrageous.

However, she would not stop presenting everything to His Majesty just because of these foreseeable facts.

Although these things cannot touch Xiao Duo's roots, they can affect Xiao Duo's status in His Majesty's heart.

What's more, she still has a trump card in her hand that can bring down Xiao Duo.

Holding the rice paper in her hand, she was silent for a long time. Gu Yuqing suddenly raised her head and looked at Huang Momo, "Mom, a few days ago, I asked you to keep an eye on the He family, but what's the progress?"

When Aunt Huang heard this, a light suddenly flashed in her eyes, "Look at my memory, I was interrogating Gou Shengde for two consecutive days yesterday and today, but I completely forgot about this important matter."

After hearing what Nanny Huang meant, she had an idea. Gu Yuqing held her breath and listened attentively.

Aunt Huang said: "On the day when the young lady went to the ancestral home, Mrs. He's wife went out to offer incense. According to the young lady's instructions, the servant followed her all the way."

"Ladies from aristocratic families in Kyoto usually go to the Great Buddha Temple and Qingquan Temple to offer incense, but when the He family's carriage left the city, it went straight to the Dafang Temple in the southwest of the capital."

As Aunt Huang's words rang out, the so-called Dafang Temple gradually appeared in Gu Yuqing's mind.

Dafang Temple was originally a very popular temple. Since the abbot of Dafang Temple had a close relationship with King Duan, when King Duan made trouble, the abbot was naturally not immune.

After King Duan's defeat, the emperor ordered the Dafang Temple to be raided, and all the items and money obtained were returned to the Great Buddha Temple for temporary safekeeping. All the monks in the temple who had come into contact with King Duan were killed without mercy. The remaining monks continued to practice in the temple.

After all, Buddhism is a pure place. No matter how angry your Majesty is, he will not uproot this temple. But even so, as these things spread, the incense of Dafang Temple plummeted, and it became a deep forest that no one cares about. Nodera.

Mrs. He offered incense and worshiped Buddha, but did not go to the Great Buddha Temple and Qingquan Temple. Why did she go to such a place? Isn't she afraid of being reported and said to be related to the rebellious officials and traitors?
After thinking about it, Gu Yuqing continued to listen to Nanny Huang's report in silence.

"...The slaves followed the He family's carriage all the way to Dafang Temple. At the entrance of the temple, the new abbot seemed to have known that Mrs. He was coming. When they arrived, he was already standing in front of the door waiting. "

"After picking up Mrs. He, he did not go into the palace to offer incense. Instead, he made many twists and turns. The abbot guided Mrs. He to the guest room at the back where pilgrims rested. He talked and laughed all the way there, looking very familiar."

Gu Yuqing listened, frowning slightly, and the answer vaguely emerged in his heart. The changing storm in his eyes calmed down in an instant, and he sneered at the corner of his mouth and said, "Where did you see He Wenyue?"

Nanny Huang was startled, and her eyes sparkled with shock when she looked at Gu Yuqing. The shock was fleeting, and the next moment, there was a smile on her lips, with a slightly proud look, "Yes."

The sneer on Gu Yuqing's lips grew thicker, "After Mrs. He met He Wenyue, she must have given the abbot a lot of incense and silver."

Aunt Huang stood in front of Gu Yuqing, smiling and nodding, her eyes filled with deep love, as if the person in front of her was not her master, but her own biological granddaughter.

Gu Suyan left early. Aunt Huang watched Gu Yuqing grow up. This friendship was extraordinary.

Gu Yuqing thought for a moment and then said, "Has Grandma seen He Wenyue?"

"See, Mrs. He came out of the guest room. It was He Wenyue who sent her off in person. Her appearance is still the same, almost unchanged. It can be seen that even though she lives in a mountain temple, she has not suffered much."

Gu Yuqing picked up the tea cup at hand, slowly brought it to her mouth, and took a sip. Her thoughts were racing, and her eyes were as cold as frost.

He was supposed to be exiled to the frontier, but he lived in a temple at the feet of the emperor, a temple that was also related to the rebellious traitor Prince Duan...

If this kidnapping case cannot bring down Xiao Duo, then adding He Wenyue, who lives in Dafang Temple, will not only bring down Xiao Duo, but even the He family can be uprooted.

Who makes Dafang Temple have anything to do with Prince Duan?
He Wenyue was personally named and exiled to the frontier by His Majesty because of Xiao Duo's betrayal. Logically speaking, He Jingzhong and Xiao Duo should have become estranged over this, but after the incident, the two of them remained as before, with no relationship at all. This has made Gu Yuqing There was some doubt in my mind.

A few days ago, I accidentally heard Jixiang complain that the world is really in chaos now. Several children have been lost one after another under the emperor's feet, all of them are handsome seven or eight years old... Jixiang complained unintentionally, but Gu Yuqing I hear it from my heart.

Later, I learned that Mrs. He, who has always been reluctant to go out, has been obsessed with offering incense and worshiping Buddha since He Wenyue's accident...

Because of the suspicion that had been lingering in her heart, Gu Yuqing ordered Aunt Huang to secretly follow Mrs. He, but she did not expect that she would get such a big harvest.

Is this God's compensation for her frequent encounters with her father due to various coincidences?

 Thanks for the reward from the lovely Shengshilanshan!Thanks to Qiao Xiaoxiao for the lovely tip!
