Chapter 705 Not
Despite the lightning, Gu Yuqing still keenly caught it, and immediately felt relieved, Xiao Yu's side was done!
It's just that this half breath has not been completely let go, and as the commander of the imperial army stepped in, her breath was suspended again.

After walking a few steps, she stood side by side with Gu Yuqing. The commander of the imperial army frowned slightly, as if something had passed over her face. He turned to the emperor in an instant and raised his fist to report back, "Your Majesty, this is something that was searched from the Marquis of Chinan's Mansion. .”

As he spoke, he held up a thick stack of letters with both hands.

When Gu Yuqing heard this, he immediately showed a look of shock on his face, "His Majesty ordered people to search the Chinanhou Mansion?"

Shocked and panicked.

He stared straight at the letters that had been handed over to the emperor by the chamberlain, and at a glance he saw a piece of yellowed rough-edged rice paper sandwiched among them. The breath that was raised in his throat suddenly fell, and only the emotion on his face, Nothing remains the same.

After receiving the letters and reading them one by one, the emperor's dignified and angry face suddenly took on a dreadful hostility. After reading the last letter, his eagle-like eyes lifted up and shot straight at Gu Yuqing. Looking closely, he lifted up the letter in his hand and threw it towards Gu Yuqing's front.

Even though the rice paper was not a sharp knife, it was thrown in a thick pile, and the emperor gathered all his strength. Gu Yuqing was hit so hard that stars appeared in his eyes. He staggered, and his body was unstable. He stumbled back and took a few steps. Barely able to stand.

The letter flew past her face and fell to the ground, but it left a bright red blood stain on her forehead. Blood beads rolled down her plain white cheek, making it dazzling for people to look at.

Before Gu Yuqing bent down to pick up the secret letters on the ground, Xiao Yi and Gongsun Mu who were standing on one side bent down first, picked up a few secret letters each, and looked at them.

Xiao Yi hurriedly glanced at the secret letter in his hand, and his eyes were full of bewilderment. "The fourth brother actually collaborated with Gu Zhen? How is this possible? There must be some misunderstanding here. Who is the fourth brother? I know very well. He has no knowledge of the affairs of this dynasty." I don’t even bother to ask how I could do such things as collaborating with the enemy and treason.”

After Xiao Yi finished speaking, Gongsun Mu answered seamlessly and said: "What is possible is impossible. Throughout the dynasties, how many of the princes who had no strength in this dynasty relied on the power of enemy countries in order to seize the throne!"

Xiao Yi was horrified and turned to Gongsun Mu in a daze. He held the letter in his trembling hand and said in a loud voice: "You are saying that the fourth brother's unlearned, unskilled and uninhibited playfulness is just a show. He is doing it for..."

Before he finished speaking, he was cut off by Gongsun Mu, "The fourth prince does not have a solid backer in our court. If he wants to seize the throne, it is not impossible to take this path. At the moment, I just don't know who Gu is. Is Zhen collaborating with the enemy first, or is the fourth prince collaborating with the enemy first, or maybe it is Gu Zhen who is married to the fourth prince, and in order to win the throne with certainty, the two of them collaborate with the enemy!"

Analyzing the speculation, Gongsun Mu said it aggressively.

After finishing his words, he turned to face the emperor with an anxious look on his face, "Your Majesty, the matter has come to this. It is certain that Gu Zhen has collaborated with the enemy. Your Majesty, please do not hesitate any longer. I will immediately lead my troops to Liaodong to remedy the war. Maybe it is not too late!" "

The chamberlain, who had been standing silently behind the emperor, looked at Gu Yuqing's panic and trembling expression, and sighed in his heart. After all, she was a woman who didn't know how to resist at such a time.
After sighing, he thought about it again and again before speaking carefully, "Your Majesty, after all, this matter involves Marquis Chinan and His Highness the Fourth Highness, so it should be..."

Before the chamberlain chief had finished speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Gongsun Mu, "You eunuch, what do you know! You talked nonsense in front of His Majesty and delayed the military situation. How can you bear the consequences?"

Gongsun Mu cut him off with a word, and the chamberlain immediately lowered his waist, but his lowered eyes flashed with resentment for a moment.

Eunuch...

After Gongsun Mu finished speaking, he turned to face the emperor and said with earnest words and heartache: "Your Majesty, if something like this happened, I can understand your Majesty's mood. After all, one is your Majesty's most valued minister, and the other is your Majesty's most favored minister." The prince, but now, there is no doubt that these letters have been searched from the Chinanhou Mansion, and what is written in this letter is indeed that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is collaborating with the Chinanhou. If your Majesty hesitates, you will be indecisive."

In order to achieve his goal, Gongsun Mu did not hesitate to use words. He just wanted to stimulate the emperor's emotions and make him give the order immediately.

While Xiao Yi and Gongsun Mu were talking, Gu Yuqing kept staring at the letter at his feet with a look of astonishment on his face. He looked like he couldn't breathe, and his hand holding the silk handkerchief was trembling.

The commander of the Forbidden Army looked at Gu Yuqing in a daze from the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but feel anxious. When did this happen? Why was Gu Yuqing, who had always been quite capable, so stupid at this time? Was she really frightened by what was happening in front of her?

God, how can you be scared at this time, cheer up quickly!
Your father is still waiting for you to clear his name!

He really wanted to plead and defend Gu Zhen, but because of his identity, if he opened his mouth, it would add fuel to the fire.

A fire boil suddenly appeared in the anxious mouth of the commander of the imperial army. He was racking his brains to think of how to remind Gu Yuqing. The emperor above his head let out an angry cry, "Were all these things found in Gu Zhen's mansion? You personally Found it?"

If Gu Zhen's rebellion was like a thunderbolt for him, then at this moment, when Gu Zhen and Xiao Yu both collaborated with the enemy, it was a fire from heaven. The emperor was caught off guard by the fire from heaven. He was burning with anger, and his dark eyes were flashing. A rage that almost bursts his eye sockets.

The commander of the imperial army immediately calmed down and answered respectfully without any emotion, "This yellowed letter was found by me in the secret compartment of Chi Nanhou's study. The rest was from one of my subordinates named Xu Lei. It was found in Marquis Chinan's bedroom."

Yellowed letter?
When Xiao Yi heard this, he couldn't help but trembled. Among the letters he arranged, there was no yellowed letter. Moreover, he bribed Xu Lei and handed over all the forged letters in his hand to Xu Lei. How could he ban the army? The commander also found another copy from a secret compartment in the study.

What is this he found!
A kind of panic came over him. Xiao Yi raised his eyes slightly and looked at the scattered letters at Gu Yuqing's feet. When he saw the yellow rice paper, he couldn't help but step forward and pick it up to take a closer look.

The letter is written by Gu Zhen, and the content describes the discussion between Gu Zhen and the Liaodong royal family on when the war in Liaodong will break out...

The hand holding the letter shook, and Xiao Yi's heart shrank. This letter was definitely not the one he gave to Xu Lei.

If he didn't arrange it, where did it come from? Is Gu Zhen really a collaborator?Or is this Gongsun Mu’s handiwork?
