famous eldest daughter

Chapter 704 Mind

When Gu Yuqing reached out to pick up the letter, Xiao Yi couldn't help but feel worried. After all, Gu Yuqing was still different from other women in the boudoir. But after hearing Gu Yuqing's words at this time, her heart suddenly dropped. .

I couldn't help but sneer in disdain, what kind of talented woman, but that's all!

"The matter has not yet been concluded. My father is also investigating. Please be patient." Xiao Yi comforted him casually, "I believe that my father is wise and powerful. If Marquis Chi Nan is really innocent, my father will definitely not wrong him." .”

Gu Yuqing ignored the words and acted panicked and uneasy. She kept a pale face and trembled. She was silent for a moment. She raised her head and looked towards the emperor with an expression as if she had suddenly remembered something. She pursed her lips slightly and said, "My lord, are you there?" Something to say.”

"You speak!"

"My father's loyalty to the court is guaranteed by my life. However, in this situation, no matter what I say, it will be useless. There is only one thing that feels strange. This letter does not arrive early or late. Why did this happen just after the incident of the Empress having an affair with Miao? This made the courtier inevitably think that someone wanted to divert His Majesty's attention and get a chance to clear the Queen's name. "

When Xiao Yi heard this, his eyelids twitched immediately, and he was about to open his mouth to defend, but his heart moved slightly, and his opened lips closed silently.

Even though there were all sorts of strange things about the Queen, the Emperor had already made a final decision. In this case, keeping silent was the best choice for him.

And Gu Yuqing's words were probably to lure him into taking the bait and force him to speak. Once he opened his mouth to defend the queen, he would fall into Gu Yuqing's trap and arouse his father's suspicion.

The general was still lamenting Gu Yuqing, but at this moment, cold sweat started to creep up on Xiao Yi's back.

He secretly let out a sigh of relief, it was so dangerous!Looking at Gu Yuqing again, the carelessness just now was gone.

Seeing that Xiao Yi did not answer, Gu Yuqing continued: "Also, the night before yesterday, Dong Xueruo, the third lady of Yongninghou Mansion, was poisoned to death by her aunt Wanqing with rat poison. Wanqing was beaten with a stick by Dong Xueyi, but she couldn't bear the punishment. The third prince, Xiao Yi, was the one who instigated her to do this. Why the third prince ordered Wanqing to poison Dong Xueruo and framed it to the Bai family, the courtier did not know. However, this matter and her father's being charged with collaborating with the enemy only happened within a day. And separated."

"My Majesty has favored me and granted me a marriage to the Fourth Highness. Once my father is convicted of treason and collaborating with the enemy, I am afraid that the matter will definitely implicate the Fourth Highness. If it is true as what I said, and the Fourth Highness will be implicated, this court will "Chinese..." Gu Yuqing paused and looked straight at Xiao Yi, "The wind in the court is blowing towards His Highness the Third Highness."

Gu Yuqing has been handling internal and external affairs over the years, and her mind has been tempered. As Gu Zhen's biological daughter, she suddenly saw evidence that her father was accused of collaborating with the enemy. It is inevitable to panic, but after the shock, she can calm down, think and analyze. , which is also reasonable. When she said these words at this moment, the emperor did not feel abrupt.

But Xiao Yi couldn't bear it any longer, if Gu Yuqing were to continue talking, she might point to his nose and say: I suspect that he is the real culprit who framed Gu Zhen.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yi said: "Miss Gu, please don't mix up some trivial matters. Are you trying to confuse the public and divert your father's attention? I have already said that my father is wise, and if your father is innocent, Father will definitely not wrong him, why do you bite like a mad dog and be aggressive."

Gu Yuqing immediately raised her eyebrows, her eyes were as cold as frost, and she looked straight at Xiao Yi, "I'm just talking about the matter. The chores His Highness did were mixed up. I don't know when the chores His Highness was talking about? Did His Highness bribe Wan? Qing poisoned Dong Xueruo and framed the Bai family. Is this a trivial matter? It turns out that in the eyes of His Highness, the lives of Concubine Hui Guifei’s eldest brother and family are a trivial matter. No wonder His Highness can do it!"

Gu Yuqing's voice was as cold as ice in the twelfth lunar month, and every word and every word hit the emperor's heart.

Although Gu Zhen's incident made him feel anxious, Xiao Yi's bribery of Wan Qing to poison Dong Xueruo was also a thorn with a barb in his heart.

Today, he was originally going to solve Xiao Yi's matter, but he failed and caused Gu Zhen to cause trouble. Instead, Xiao Yi was suppressed.

While thinking about this, something suddenly flashed across the emperor's mind.

Xiao Yi poisoned Dong Xueruo with his front foot, and Gu Zhen was revealed to be collaborating with the enemy with his back foot... His vicious eagle eyes narrowed slightly, and the emperor's gaze wandered on Xiao Yi, Gongsun Mu and Wang Daosheng.

Xiao Yi and Gongsun Mu were married, and they had already experienced both prosperity and loss. However, the two letters confirming Gu Zhen's rebellion were submitted by him. Is this a coincidence?
And this Wang Daosheng, it was clearly Xiao Yi who sent him to the mansion last night...

Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but follow Gu Yuqing's thoughts and think that once Gu Zhen fell, Xiao Yu would be the one to lose the most.

Although the Yongning Marquis Mansion is Xiao Yu's maternal family, it is an existence that succeeds more than fails. The only one Xiao Yu can rely on is the Chinan Marquis Mansion. Now that Gu Zhen has caused such a thing, once Gu Zhen is found guilty, Xiao Yu will Yu will never have the power to seize the throne.

Among all the princes, no one has the strength to compete with Xiao Yi.

His father-in-law has Gongsun Mu, and behind him is the queen and the British government. This kind of strength... is unmatched by anyone.

Thinking of this, the emperor's eyelids suddenly jumped.

But these, after all, are his imaginations. Gu Zhen's defection to the enemy, if he is a little careless, will push this thousand miles of rivers and mountains to the point of destruction.

As Xiao Yi and Gu Yuqing were allowed to quarrel, the emperor's mind was turning over and over, but he remained silent. It was too early to say anything at this moment, and everything still had to wait for the outcome from the Forbidden Army.

If the Forbidden Army found anything, he would immediately ask Gongsun Mu to lead his army to Liaodong, and escort Gu Zhen back to the court, and then continue the war in Liaodong. If the Forbidden Army found nothing, he would send appropriate people to Liaodong to investigate the matter.

Having made up his mind, the emperor became more and more reluctant to say a word.

While Gu Yuqing was fighting with Xiao Yi, she was panicking. She had told Ruyi to fight quickly and quickly led the commander of the forbidden army to the study room. But what was the truth? As smart as the commander of the forbidden army, Gu Yuqing really had no idea. .

As for Xiao Yu, I don't know if the things he has arranged have been arranged.

Just as he was talking, the heavy carved wooden door of the Imperial Study Room was pushed open by the servant, Gu Yuqing looked at it immediately, and saw at a glance that the servant who came in was the one who was bought by her with a lot of money that day. He was the one who opened the door just now. His heart skipped a beat and his eyes looked at him for a moment.

The young chamberlain seemed not to notice Gu Yuqing's gaze at all, but respectfully reported back to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army is back."

When the emperor heard this, he immediately sat upright and said, "Let him come in."

The waiter received the order and executed it immediately. However, as he turned around and pushed the door open, he glanced at Gu Yuqing. The light in his eyes moved quickly, conveying an invisible message that flashed by.
