Qin Youjin fell into silence after being scolded by Gu Zhao unceremoniously.

Gu Zhao just didn't want to talk to him, so she walked around the yard. As she walked, she suddenly remembered something.

Looking back, she saw that the steward was following her with a smile on her face. Gu Zhao asked, "Where were those people who were imprisoned with the tenth prince at that time?"

The steward bowed his head and replied, "Reporting to your lord, a group of people were indeed imprisoned with the tenth prince at that time."

"Some of those people raise cranes, and there is also an official who is said to be under the Tenth Prince and is responsible for taming cranes."

"They were originally locked in the back room, but later, didn't someone make trouble..."

The steward scratched his head and said, "The rebels rushed in. The younger one was busy fighting with the rebels and didn't notice. Later, he discovered that the back room was burned down and the people inside didn't know.

He died or ran away."

Gu Zhao glanced at him.

Probably only the last sentence of these words can be believed, and those imprisoned people are gone.

Just listen to his bragging about leading people to fight against rebels.

If any rebels really rushed in, he would probably be the first to run away.

What Gu Zhao wanted to ask was actually the whereabouts of Lu Qi.

Now that these people are gone, Lu Qi's cleverness should have found an opportunity to run away.

Gu Zhao nodded.

Lu Qi was obviously ordered to lurk next to Qin Youjin, and struck Qin Youjin at the critical moment. The mission was completed so beautifully, the people behind him should reuse Lu Qi.

Maybe when we meet again next time, Lu Qi will already have an extraordinary status.

By the time Gu Zhao turned back, Qin Youjin had already washed himself clean and put on a new set of clean clothes.

It's just that it doesn't look like the new clothes are his, and the size doesn't quite fit him.

Gu Zhao didn't care about these details and just asked the steward to set up the incense table and open the imperial edict to read out.

When he heard that it was the new emperor who asked him to go back to attend the funeral, and that he did not depose him from his title, Qin Youjin was so excited that he burst into tears, looking like he was crying with gratitude.

"Prince Xinyang, please tidy up and come back to Beijing with us as soon as possible." Gu Zhao said businesslikely.

After a simple lunch, the group set off on horseback under the scorching sun.

After being scolded by Gu Zhao, Qin Youjin became much more honest and remained silent all the way.

It was already afternoon when we arrived at the palace.

Qin Youjin stumbled through the ranks of officials, threw himself in front of Emperor Shouzheng's tomb, fell to his knees, and cried loudly.

Qin Youzhen was startled by his cry. When he saw Qin Youjin's appearance covered with dust and thin bones, a coldness flashed across the corner of his mouth.

He has never forgotten everything Qin Youjin did back then.

He openly hugged Lin Xuerong in Yuxian Tower, and even threatened that he, Qin Youjin, was the emperor of Bei'an.

Haha, if he hadn't shouted it out himself, Qin Youzhen would never have known that this younger brother with a humble background and humble status had such ambition hidden under his timid appearance.

Qin Youjin didn't know what he was thinking of. He cried very sadly. His forehead banged against the gold tile floor, which made people cry.

Qin Youzhen's face showed pain and sadness, and he ordered to the little eunuch next to him, "Why don't you help Prince Xinyang up quickly?"

The blood on Qin Youjin's forehead was blurred after he was helped up. Anyone who looked at him would praise him for his filial piety.

Even after changing into mourning clothes, the white linen on the head was faintly red.

Qin Youjin was helped to the prince's seat. The whispers he heard along the way were all about his filial piety, which made him feel at ease.

He was really afraid that the new emperor would catch the crane and die, and he would blame him for the death of the Zhengdi.

When he came out of the palace, Qin Youjin breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if he was still in a dream.

When Qin Xinglie was about to leave Guande Hall, he was blocked by Mr. Shen Ge.

"Your Highness Prince Li, please come with me." Mr. Shen Ge looked calm and saluted Qin Xinglie.

Qin Xinglie frowned and asked in a hissing voice, "What's the matter?"

Mr. Shen Ge was neither humble nor arrogant. "Yesterday, I impeached His Highness on multiple charges. Your Majesty has decreed that I am responsible for finding out the truth. Therefore, I need Your Highness's cooperation to go to the official office to explain the relevant matters."

The officials who had not yet had time to disperse looked at each other. The new emperor had been on the throne for less than ten days, and the enthronement ceremony had not yet been held, nor had a formal court meeting been held. Therefore, many of these officials who had not entered the cabinet did not know about the official impeachment of King Li until now. things.

Qin Xinglie felt the eyes coming from all directions, and his whole body became slightly irritable.

It was clear that he did not do these things, and Gu Zhao had already written a report to the emperor, but Qin Youzhen still wanted to make a fuss about this matter, just to force him to give up military power and surrender completely?

Anger burned, an invisible heat surged in Qin Xinglie's body, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

This is why he is said to be violent.

These toxins in his body are entangled together. As long as his mood fluctuates, these toxins are like waves driven by strong winds, rolling higher and higher, making his whole body hot, irritable and irritable, and even more merciless when he attacks.

He tried hard to suppress the toxin, but the result of this forced suppression was that the meridians throughout his body felt like thousands of silver needles were constantly piercing him, causing inexplicable pain.

Even though he had experienced such pain countless times, Qin Xinglie couldn't help biting his lips and felt the faint smell of blood in his mouth, which made him exhale heavily, "Let's go!"

Mr. Shen Ge was facing those instantly scarlet eyes, his face was calm, but he couldn't help but feel fear in his heart.

When he heard Qin Xinglie finally say this word, he immediately turned around, stretched out his arm, and asked Qin Xinglie to go first.

Qin Xinglie's whole body was immersed in the pain of the acupuncture, and he had no intention of saying anything to him, so he strode out immediately.

In the Cabinet Office, Mr. Shen Ge did not dare to entrust his superiors, so he asked Qin Xinglie to take a seat, and he took out the memorial from the official and asked about the crimes one by one.

The clerk sat in the corner tremblingly, writing furiously, recording the questions and answers between the two.

"Your Highness, please forgive me for being frank. You said that it was the aide of Fan Yuanzhao, the head of the Fan family, who planned the bankruptcy of Baihang. But he was actually a Donghao spy. He also colluded with the three hundred Donghao warriors who ambushed the late emperor and bloodbathed the Fan family manor. All actions All to frame you."
