Chapter 148 The thief shouts to catch the thief
Hua Jian walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony with his back straight in the anticipation of everyone. He held a carved square box in both hands. Except for Gu Qizhen, everyone else paid attention to it, even Mu Rongguo I was also confused, I didn't remember this trick.

At this moment, Zhao Changyun finally hides his leisurely face, frowns his sword eyebrows, and turns his eyes from the black box to Gu Qizhen with a calm face. What kind of tricks does he want to play?

The most nervous and frightened one was Zhao Shangshu. He just listened to the Seventh Prince and always thought that this matter must be safe and secure, so he dared to risk his life to impeach Mu Rongguo. At this moment, his guts were green with regret!

Li Defu took the box from Huajian and carefully presented it to the dark-faced emperor. In the hall, only the sound of the emperor opening the box and taking out the items inside could be heard in silence. A minister was taking a moment to breathe a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, before the whole person could relax, he was immediately frightened by the emperor's stern voice and almost knelt down, losing half of his soul!
"Come here! Drag him down immediately! Everyone in the Zhao family will be distributed to the frontier!"

This sudden loud drink instantly covered almost everyone like a mist, and Zhao Shangshu was so frightened that he almost peed on his crotch and kept begging for mercy. He kept looking at Gu Yushang, but The other party was still as indifferent as the cold wind.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I don't know what crime this humble minister has committed?!"

"You still have the face to ask?! See for yourself!"

With a muffled sound, the box and its contents suddenly fell under Zhao Shangshu's eyes. Everyone took a closer look. Among the letters, the Wanmin Book with red fingerprints on them was particularly eye-catching. After browsing, I couldn't help sighing silently. It turned out that someone else had embezzled the official money privately. Zhao Shangshu was a thief calling for a thief.

"Your Majesty, what Zhao Shangshu said is not all nonsense. The official bank allocated to Ye Qiong was indeed embezzled, and the one hundred acres was indeed true, but," Gu Qizhen deliberately stopped, and turned to look at Zhao Shangshu. , and continued, "The main character has just changed."

His voice was steady and quiet, but he slapped Zhao Shangshu hard!
From the moment the Wanmin book fell on his face, Zhao Shangshu gave up struggling, his body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground. , Sure enough, he still lost!
The punishment given to him by the emperor was still light. He knew in his heart that he could not confess the seventh prince, not to mention that it would be counterproductive, and he might turn his back on the general. Most importantly, with him around, he might still have a chance. The frontier is high and the emperor is far away, and he is the father-in-law of the Seventh Prince, so he will not wait until death.

Thinking of this, he obediently thanked the Lord for his kindness and was dragged away by the guards.

In this way, Mu Rongguo is safe and sound, but at the moment he doesn't know that if he can predict what will happen later, he would rather be the one who was assigned!

As soon as this incident happened, rumors spread throughout the capital in less than half a day, and Zhao's house was ransacked immediately, and the whole family was exiled to the frontier, except for the concubine Zhao Shuiyan.

Some people said that it was the emperor's merciful rule of the world; others said that it was because the seventh prince loved his wife too much and begged him in front of the emperor; some even said that the seventh concubine was pregnant with the emperor's heir, so she survived the disaster.

However, no matter what the common people guessed, only the person involved knew the truth. It was indeed the Seventh Prince interceding in front of the emperor, but the emperor didn't know that there was someone else who really wanted to keep Zhao Shuiyan.
