Chapter 66
After arguing for so long, Jiang Taohua must not be able to fall asleep. When Shen Zaiye came in, she saw her blinking at him with her two big eyes open.

"What are you thinking about?" Sitting down by the bed, Shen Zaoye naturally unbuttoned her skirt and looked at the wound on her shoulder.

Tao Hua tilted her head and said: "Ms. Gu is considered to be very weak in this yard. She never chose Qin's and Meng's ship stations, but why did you plan to abandon her from the beginning?"

Shen Zaiye chuckled: "She was born in a high school, and she entered the Prime Minister's Mansion with the help of her father. Now that his father made a mistake and is about to be punished, why should I keep her to implicate the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Slightly taken aback, Tao Hua said: "The matter of counterfeiting bank notes has been known to the government a month ago?"

"No, it was just found out a few days ago."

"Then..." Then why did he make preparations so early?
There is no need to ask this question, just think about it and you will know that apart from the impermanence of black and white, the only person who can predict the imminent death of a good person can only be the murderer.

Master Gu might have offended Shen Jaeye somewhere?This is so ruthless, Gu Huairou is also the woman he once loved, and now he plans to treat her like this?

The gauze on the wound was removed, Shen Zaiye slowly changed her medicine, wrapped it up again gently, looked at her and said, "Stop walking around in the past two days, and stay in Zhengchun Pavilion to recuperate. I It will be very busy, and it is possible not to come back at night."

Taohua nodded.To convict King Yu, King Jing and the emperor will definitely have a lot of arguments, and Shen Zaiye must be a good person in the middle, so he is naturally busy.She also took advantage of this opportunity to ask Qingmoss to inquire about the news outside.

Counterfeit money has existed since ancient times, but the laws of the Wei Dynasty were strict, and the people did not have enough ability and channels, so most of the counterfeit banknotes were circulated to the people through officials.After all, many people dare not check the authenticity of the bank notes given by the official.Exchanging fake banknotes for real banknotes allocated by the court is also a means of corruption.

Gu Huairou's father is Lang Zhongling, the military general in charge of the palace guards, so he did not expect to use this trick.Although it may be Shen Zaiye's trick, if he is not greedy, he will not fall for it.There is retribution, and it is not wronged.

However, she always felt that looking back at what Huairou did was not what she wanted to do. After all, she was impulsive and simple-minded, so she couldn't think of such a vicious way to harm others.

Then who is watching all this in the dark?

At dawn the next day, Shen Zaiye went out, and guests came to Zhengchun Pavilion not long after.

"I also feel sorry for my lady. Why haven't you broken the big and small injuries?" Qin Jieyu covered his lips and looked at her, sighing: "Sure enough, there are so many twists and turns in the beauty, some people can't see the goodness of the lady."

Smiling slightly, Tao Hua looked at her innocently and said: "Miss Qin is also a peerless confidante with natural beauty, but she is not as rough as me. It must have nothing to do with her appearance, but more to do with her heart."

Qin Shi was slightly stunned, glanced at her, and said with a light smile: "Young lady is right, fortunately, Gu Shi is leaving soon, staying in this mansion for two more days may not make any changes."

"Ms. Qin's time in this mansion is much longer than mine." Taohua looked at her and asked curiously: "You should know better than me what kind of person Mrs. Gu is, right?"

"It's only natural." Qin Jieyu sneered and said, "She's just like her father, she's hypocritical and high-spirited, and usually refuses to play with us sisters. She's flirtatious and flirtatious in front of her father."

"Huh?" Taohua heard the point: "Ms. Gu looks like her father?"

"Naturally, like a father, like a daughter." Qin Jieyu said disdainfully: "The people in our backyard, who is not a high-ranking official? Because they are married, they all respect the Prime Minister. Only she That father is just a Lang Zhongling, but he repeatedly contradicted the Prime Minister and did some stupid and bad things, she deserves to be divorced now."

Master Gu has such a temper?Then it's no wonder Shen Zaiye.Peach Blossom pursed her lips, and Shen Zaiye's temperament was obviously "prosperity when you go along, death when you go against it", and the person standing opposite him would not have any good fruit to eat.

However, Qin Jieyu and the Gu family are not considered to have any deep hatred, and it can even be said that they have almost no intersection.Now that Mrs. Gu fell into the well, she has dropped the stone too hard, right?
"When Mrs. Gu was in this mansion, what was the situation when she was the most favored?" Tao Hua asked, "Can you go out of the mansion at will?"

"How is that possible." Qin Jieyu sneered: "No matter who is favored in this yard, if he wants to leave the house, he has to ask his wife for a sign. Even the maids have to record the reason for going out. This is the rule."

That's it, Taohua nodded: "The rules must be followed."

Looking at her, Qin Jieyu said with a smile: "However, if you want to leave the mansion, you can go and inform the madam, and the madam will agree."

"There's nothing important, can I go out for a walk?" Taohua raised her eyebrows.

"I can't guarantee it for others, but you can." Qin Jieyu patted her hand and said, "Our wife likes you very much."

How did you know you liked her?Taohua smiled apologetically, muttering inwardly.She always felt that although Mei Zhaoxue looked dignified and generous, she was actually the most difficult person in the yard.

"I came here this time to visit my wife. Second, I want to pass a message to my lady." Qin Jieyu said softly, looking at her with deep eyes: "If you want to survive in this yard, don't you?" It's easy. If you don't hurry up and pick a big tree to hug, when the wind comes, you will be blown away like Mrs. Gu. Our wife has a good eye for the lady, if the lady is willing, you might as well go to Linghan Courtyard."

Did he come to win her over?Taohua was surprised, she always felt that Mei and Qin should be somewhat hostile to her, a favored woman like her is a big tree in itself, why is there any need to hug others?And for a tree bigger than his wife, it should only end up being cut down in the forest.

What are they planning?
After thinking about it, Tao Hua smiled and said, "I understand what my lady means, wait for two more days after I think about it, and then I will go see my wife after I recover from my injury."

"Alright." Qin Jieyu nodded, stood up after thinking for a while, looked at her and said, "Ms. Jiang is a smart person, she must not disappoint my wife and me, so I can rest."

Slightly nodding, Taohua watched her leave politely, and then quickly ordered Qingmo: "Help me check the entry and exit records of the mansion, and see if anyone has gone out of Wenqing Pavilion a few days ago."

"Yes." Qingmo agreed, and went out immediately, and came back with the copied records of leaving the house a few days ago.

After taking it over and looking at it, Taohua narrowed her eyes.The people in Wenqing Pavilion only went out to see doctors a few times before and after Gu's miscarriage, and no one came out of the mansion again during the period of recuperation.

This is interesting.

After dark at night, word came from the palace that the prime minister would be staying in the palace today, so the people in the mansion stopped waiting and turned off the lights one after another to go to bed.

The moon was hanging high, and Gu Huairou in Wenqing Pavilion was sitting in the yard crying.

She was reluctant to be here, and even more reluctant to be in the wild, but time was running out, so she could take a few more glances.

Unexpectedly, after entering the mansion for more than a year, her final ending turned out to be like this.She regretted it, and she should have listened to Jiang Taohua's words since the time when her body was abnormal, and she should not be so eager to get a diagnosis, so that she would not end up in the current situation.

With a long sigh, Gu Huairou got up, and was about to go back to the house to continue packing, but there was a "squeak" from the courtyard door.

Slightly startled, she turned her head and shouted: "Who is it!"

Only Yue Tao and her were left in Wenqing Pavilion, and there was not even a nursing home, so no one could hear her cry, except for Jiang Taohua who came in.

Taking off the hat on the cloak, Taohua looked at her and saluted: "Don't panic, it's me."

Pupils shrunk, Gu Huairou subconsciously took two steps back: "It's midnight, what are you doing here?"

"Of course I have something to say to my lady." Taohua walked over naturally, took her hand and walked towards the main house.

Gu Huairou's hands were icy cold, she was warmed up unexpectedly, even though her face was guarded, her heart couldn't help feeling a little bitter.Since Xiangye said he was going to divorce her, and her mother left, Yue Tao could only cry, she didn't even have anyone to talk to.There is really nowhere to confide in the grievance and resentment in my heart.

So as soon as she sat down, she couldn't hold back her tears, she looked at Taohua and said, "I really didn't intend to kill you."

"I know." Taohua looked at her with a smile, "Otherwise I wouldn't be here tonight."

"Thank you." With a sob, Gu Huairou said: "This human relationship is cold and warm, and there is always more icing on the cake than giving charcoal in the snow. No matter why the lady came here tonight, Huairou owes you a favor."

Blinking her eyes, Tao Hua laughed: "My lady is so meek and lovable at the moment, since her heart is not bad, why did you jump off my boat before?"

"I was stupid." Gu Huairou closed his eyes: "If there is a chance to do it all over again, I will follow my lady wholeheartedly and not do those stupid things!"

"Then can you tell me now, what's going on?" Taohua said, "I don't think you arranged the matter in the suburban forest, so who is behind the scenes to harm you?"

With a jump in her heart, Gu Huairou raised her eyes to look at her: "Why do you think it's not me, my lady?"

Even Xiangye said it was her, and she didn't have any evidence to prove that she didn't do it by herself.

"It's very simple. Your people didn't leave the mansion during those days, how did you bribe the killer?" Tao Hua curled her lips: "Flying pigeons to pass on letters? There are no pigeons in this mansion."

Opening her mouth wide in astonishment, Gu Huairou patted the armrest of the chair and stood up: "Yes! There is a record of leaving the house! I can prove my innocence to the Lord!"

As he said that, he wanted to go outside.

"Take a break." Taohua shook her head: "This kind of evidence can only convince those who believe in you, but it cannot convince a person who does not believe in you."

Body froze, Gu Huairou turned to look at her: "You don't believe me?"

"Can't you see it?" Taohua sighed: "Since your father disobeyed him many times, he never fully believed in you again."
