Chapter 557 A Secret Exchange for Freedom

Qin Xinglie sneered, "Who else besides him?"

Gu Zhao really couldn't believe it, but thinking about Qin Youjin's actions when he led the army into the emperor's tent, he felt that it was not too strange.

Qin Youjin usually looks handsome and elegant, but when his own fundamental interests are really involved, he is extremely cruel and crazy.

"Then, does that Mr. Ge really know anything, or is it just a coincidence that he accidentally mentioned such a thing?" Gu Zhao had some doubts.

If you can be a senior citizen, you shouldn't be a fool no matter what you think.

In fact, many officials were in the Longyoupo camp at the beginning, and they had some guesses about what happened at that time.

As for whether you can guess what the prince did at that time, it's hard to say.

Given the chaotic situation at that time, it was possible that someone saw something.

After all, it was He Zheng who gained the upper hand in the end. With a personality like hers, if she found out that someone had secretly seen something, she would probably just be happy and would rather leave a big hole for the good son of Emperor Shouzheng.

The other cabinet elders may not be completely ignorant of the inside story, but they all chose to pretend not to know.

What was the purpose of this suddenly deceased Ge Lao speaking like this in front of the new emperor?

"I don't know about this." Qin Xinglie put his hands around Gu Zhao's waist and asked Gu Zhao to turn around and sit on his lap opposite him. "Maybe he was quick to talk and wanted to remonstrate with the emperor. Maybe he was

He has ulterior motives, trying to beat and test the new king."

"But the result is that he lost his life and Qin Youjin lost his heart."

Gu Zhao said with emotion, "Yes, it is said that the rabbit dies and the fox is sad. If the new king can treat a cabinet bachelor like this, what should other officials think?"

"He never admitted that he had done it. The family of the deceased was afraid, and it took a few days to hold a funeral on the grounds that Mr. Ge had died of illness."

"Qin Youjin also issued a decree to reward some property."

"No one dared to mention the real cause of death of this elder. The emperor also pretended not to know and never said anything about finding the murderer."

Gu Zhao almost covered his eyes, "This is no different from hiding one's ears and stealing the bell!"

A dignified cabinet bachelor died suddenly. The emperor did not send anyone to diagnose and treat him, and did not care about the cause of death at all. He just let the matter go by.

By doing this, who doesn’t know that the cabinet scholar’s ​​death was strange and related to the emperor?

"So there are many officials in the imperial court who are very dissatisfied with him."

"The cabinet is also divided into two factions."

Gu Zhao also knew this. Mr. Dong Ge was on one side, and Mr. Liu Ge was on another side. Mr. Chu Ge seemed to be neutral, but in this context, neutrality actually meant dissatisfaction with the emperor.

"As the former chief minister, Mr. Dong Ge has disciples and old officials all over the world. His lack of support for the emperor will inevitably make it difficult for the emperor to move in the court."

Even in the past two years, Qin Youjin's imperial edict could not leave the capital at all - not that anyone blocked it, but after leaving the capital, his imperial edict was like nothing and had no effect at all.

Gu Zhao understood a little bit, "So he used his best method to solve this problem through marriage?"

When Lin Weikang threatened them, Qin Youjin did this, but Gu Zhao refused to cooperate.

Now faced with a difficult situation, Qin Youjin repeated his old tricks, and this time, he succeeded.

Qin Xinglie nodded.

Gu Zhao somewhat understood why Queen Liu barged in without warning when she was talking to Qin Youjin about business. Qin Youjin's eyes clearly showed anger, but he had to endure it.

Because Queen Liu was the alliance representative he found, Qin Youjin couldn't completely break up with Queen Liu if he didn't have Qian Gang to act arbitrarily.

"What about the Royal Guards?" Gu Zhao asked, "Since he has suffered a loss, how can he dare to hand over the Royal Guards to the Liu family?"

Qin Xinglie's eyes were a little gloomy, "I used to think that Mr. Liu Ge did something, but now that I think about it, there seems to be some problem."

Gu Zhao looked at him in surprise, waiting for his answer.

Qin Xinglie thought for a while and said with difficulty, "Do you know what Yuan Zhimei said to me a few days ago?"

Hearing the name Yuan Zhimei, the smile on Gu Zhao's face couldn't help but fade.

Qin Xinglie had been paying attention to Gu Zhao's expression. When he saw her like this, he quickly hugged her tightly with both hands.

"Ah Zhao!"

Hearing Qin Xinglie's nervous tone and seeing the anxiety on Qin Xinglie's face face to face, the coldness in Gu Zhao's heart suddenly melted away.

She pursed her lips and smiled, "What do you want to say?"

Qin Xinglie could see that there was still a hint of wind and frost in Gu Zhao's smile.

Thinking of Gu Zhao's experiences over the years, Qin Xinglie's heart was filled with shame and self-blame, but he could only hug her tightly.

"Azhao, she is my biological mother, I cannot kill her."

"If another person dared to do this to you, I would have cut her into two pieces."

"But I can't kill her. I'm sorry, Azhao, just scold me."

Gu Zhao put away the smile on his face, "Qin Xinglie, if you keep talking nonsense, I will fire Yuan Fu from his position in the Crane Control Department!"

She didn't want to hear these excuses, they didn't make any sense.

Qin Xinglie said quickly, "No nonsense, no nonsense." Yuan Fu was fired, how could he accompany A Zhao?

"Yuan Zhimei was locked up by me."

"I killed all the men who helped her in front of her."

"I broke the neck of the confidant maid who ran errands for her in front of her with my own hands."

"Others, as long as they were known to me, were brought to my house and killed with a stick in front of her."

As if recalling the situation at that time, Qin Xinglie's voice became a little more solemn.

"I locked her up and kept her in a yard forever. She was not allowed to interact with anyone. I will never treat her as my mother again."

Gu Zhao could also understand Qin Xinglie's difficulties.
