From the moment he saw Qin Youjin, Gu Zhao was certain that Hu Siye's death must be a trap designed for her.

Sure enough, as soon as she showed her intention to take over the case of Hu Siye falling into the lake, Qin Youjin impatiently threw out his doubts about her.

Gu Zhao felt contempt in his heart. Qin Youjin's current identity could not be the mastermind behind the scenes, he could only be a tool to be used.

It's just that Qin Youjin has experienced life once and was an emperor. Why is he still so restless now that he has to do it again?

She only said one sentence, and Qin Youjin shouted out such crucial news. It was true that dog meat could not be put on the table.

Gu Zhao raised his eyebrows, "Oh, what a coincidence. Did you and Mr. Zhou have an agreement?"

Zhou Dan's face turned red, but the way he looked at Qin Youjin was a little strange.

He didn't think about it carefully just now, but now that Qin Youjin said this, he realized that the so-called murderer described by Qin Youjin, didn't his body shape and dress exactly match Gu Zhao?

So Qin Youjin is also framing Gu Zhao?

Although Zhou Dan had no evidence, his intuition told him that this guess was basically correct.

As expected of the pavilion boss, even the princes of the Qin family clan and counties can command and move.

Qin Youjin was a little confused. He didn't know what Zhou Dan had done, and naturally he didn't understand what Gu Zhao meant by this sentence.

But Gu Zhao's words were not originally meant for him to hear, but for the surrounding soldiers and government officers to hear.

Everyone saw what Zhou Dan did before, but now that Gu Zhao has put Qin Youjin and Zhou Dan in the same camp, it will easily make everyone doubt Qin Youjin's accusation.

People who have just been deceived once will become sensitive and disgusted by similar scams that will appear again soon.

Qin Youjin felt that something was wrong with the way so many people were looking at him, and he shrank a little. He wanted to retreat to his house, close the door, and isolate these strange looks.

The expansion and self-confidence brought by being an emperor had already been worn away by the setbacks and failures in the past few years. Instead, the inferiority and cowardice deeply rooted in his heart became more and more serious.

Gu Zhao looked at the changes in the expression on his face and could basically guess Qin Youjin's mentality.

She didn't say anything, she just stood in front of Qin Youjin with her hands behind her back and looked at him with a smile.

Gu Zhao's upright posture and confident demeanor formed a particularly sharp contrast with Qin Youjin's twinkling eyes and timid posture, which easily made the onlookers unconscious.

"Gu Zhao, don't bully others just because you are the commander of the Crane Control Division!" Qin Youjin felt the change in the atmosphere around him and was so anxious that veins jumped on his forehead, "No matter how high your official position is, you can't cover the sky with one hand!"

"When Hu Siye fell into the lake just now, the murderer who pushed him was very similar to you. You are not qualified to hear this case!"

Gu Zhao smiled lightly, "Did you see clearly? Are you sure that I am the murderer of Hu Siye?"

Qin Youjin hesitated for a moment. The order of development of this matter seemed to be somewhat different from what he had heard arranged before.

However, Gu Zhaodu asked him in front of his nose, could he still deny it?

Anyway, they all identified Gu Zhao as the real culprit. What’s the difference if it’s sooner or later?

Thinking of this, Qin Youjin nodded with certainty and said loudly, "It was you! I am sure that it was you who pushed Hu Siye into the lake!"

Gu Zhao let out a long "Oh" and nodded, "So that's it. Did you see the murderer's face clearly? Are you sure it's me?"

Qin Youjin always felt that Gu Zhao's reaction was not right, so he thought for a while before replying, "Although I didn't see your face clearly, I can clearly see your figure and official uniform!"

"If there is no second person wearing a colorful crane suit in Changyang Garden, then you are the only one!"

Qin Youjin felt that what he said was very high-level. It did not contradict the previous description of Zhou Dan, and also pointed out the unique characteristics of the colorful crane suit on the murderer.

No matter who asks, he will say this and kill Gu Zhao to death. Let’s see what will happen to this woman who covets wealth and betrays him!

Gu Zhao continued to nod, "Okay!"

At this moment, there was a noise not far away.

A group of royal guards arrived first, standing around with guns, followed immediately by a group of senior officials.

Mr. Liu Ge, Mr. Dong Ge, Mr. Chu Ge, and the two Mr. Xin Ge, Mr. Meng Ge who had just joined the cabinet in recent years, walked in front of the officials.

Behind them, there are many first-, second- and third-grade officials.

There were also some fourth- and fifth-grade officials following behind, with curious faces on their faces.

Gu Zhao has met Mr. Liu Ge. He is an old man who always has a dark face and is very serious. He has not seen him in the past few years and he looks much older.

But at the beginning, Mr. Liu Ge's position in the cabinet was not that of Mr. Dong Ge. Now, Mr. Liu Ge is walking side by side with Mr. Dong Ge, and it seems that he has no intention of giving in at all.

It seems that having an emperor's son-in-law is different and full of confidence.

Mr. Dong Ge is older than Mr. Liu Ge and has always been taciturn and quiet. Even now, Mr. Liu Ge is walking side by side with him, and there is no expression of displeasure on his wrinkled face.

After Gu Zhao returned to Shangjing, he had obtained information on officials at all levels of the imperial court from Dian Fengnian, which contained many secrets unknown to outsiders.

For example, most of Hu Ying's private information was seen by Gu Zhao from the files of Konghe Division, and then coupled with the inner voice she heard, it was enough to make Hu Ying horrified to the point of shame.
