"This is unreasonable!" Empress Liu was furious. She had been threatened by Gu Zhao for so long, and Gu Zhao wanted to take away all her confidants for interrogation. Who is the king and who is the minister?

How dare a commander of the Crane Control Division be so arrogant and domineering in front of her!

Even if King Li supports her, she can't be so blatantly ignoring the facts, right?

"I am here, let's see who dares to take people away today!"

Empress Liu shook off Gu Zhao's hand and stood angrily in the middle of the road, as if she would step over her if she wanted to take her away.

The maids and eunuchs in Kunning Palace quickly gathered around and blocked the entire road.

Bai He looked at Gu Zhao's face and waited for Gu Zhao to express his stance.

Gu Zhao had a sneer on his lips and walked over from behind.

No matter how she did it, all the maids who were next to her could not help but fall out of the way and get out of the way.

Just as Empress Liu was about to say something, Gu Zhao's eyes swept over her.

Those eyes with beautiful shapes and dark eyes contained as sharp a sword as frost and snow.

Empress Liu narrowed her eyes and realized that Gu Zhao was a person who had been killed in a dangerous place like Douchuan Pass, and was not the noble lady she was familiar with who could only talk but not take action.

Gu Zhao really knows how to draw a sword and kill people!

Empress Liu was stunned. The cranes had already escorted several "suspects" through the passage.

Without getting any signal from their master, the palace maids and eunuchs didn't know what to do, so they just watched helplessly as the person controlling the crane walked away.

When Empress Liu came back to her senses, all she saw was Gu Zhao's half-smiling expression.

Gu Zhao bowed his hands to Queen Liu and said, "Thank you, Queen, for your cooperation. I will take my leave now."

Looking at the messy Kunning Palace in front of her, and then at the back of Gu Zhao who had gone away, Queen Liu was so angry that she slapped the nearest palace maid, "Trash! A bunch of trash!"

The palace maids and eunuchs knelt on the floor cheering, but Empress Liu became even more unhappy.

"Come here, show me! I'm going to ask for an audience with Your Majesty! Let him administer justice to me!"

Gu Zhao dared to break into Kunning Palace to arrest people, so naturally he would not leave any clues to others.

As the commander of the Crane Control Division that the emperor had just appointed, she was qualified to review the security of the palace and arrest spies. Before departure, Gu Zhao had sent someone to send a secret message, reported the situation to the emperor, and asked to go

Investigate in Kunning Palace.

Who knew that someone in Kunning Palace was suddenly poisoned and died? Such a thing happening in the Queen's Palace is very serious in nature, but it cannot be suppressed by committing suicide.

As long as Gu Zhao wants to take charge, there is no reason why she should not be allowed to take charge. This is the scope of her responsibilities.

So the interrogation and interrogation were all just to protect the life and safety of the emperor and empress. What's wrong with that?

The people who controlled Hesi carried the body of Granny Qu and escorted several "suspects" out of the palace in a grand manner.

"Sir, as you expected, someone from Kunning Palace left the palace at noon and went to the Liu family's Qingyun Clothing Village in Nanshi in the name of purchasing."

"Then, the shopkeeper of Qingyun Buzhuang went to the Liu family."

"According to information within the Liu family, he was taken to the outer study room, and the person who received him should be Liu Ge's eldest son, Liu Boqing, who once served as the fifth-rank examination doctor in the Ministry of Personnel."

"Mr. Liu Ge was in the cabinet and never returned."

"In less than a stick of incense, Liu Boqing left the Liu family in a carriage and went to a villa of the Liu family in the east of the city."

"Now, three dark spots have been set up outside the courtyard for surveillance."

"According to investigations, a Mr. Lu lives in this villa. Neighboring residents said that he regularly goes to a nearby teahouse to drink tea and is a regular customer there."

The Control Bureau usually monitors the homes of these officials, especially if they are relatives of Mr. Ge, they must have someone in their homes.

Therefore, Mr. Lu's situation has long been recorded in the He Control Division - Lu Xiang, an important staff member of Mr. Liu Ge, has been with the Liu family for more than five years and almost six years.

He was short and thin, behaved elegantly and loved to drink tea. His old wife died young and he had no children. He only had two concubines to take care of him.

After receiving the news, Liu Boqing went directly to Lu Xiang, obviously wanting to ask Lu Xiang for advice.

"Sir, as you said, the Queen's side was quickly exposed. Moreover, Gu Zhao's reaction was just as you expected, and the counterattack was fast and strong."

Liu Boqing has a slender figure, thick beard and hair, a face like a crown jewel, and an aura of wealth, but now there is a look of anxiety on his face.

The man sitting opposite him was a bit shorter than him, wearing a long-sleeved robe, sitting cross-legged on a futon, his eyes slightly closed, looking quite enigmatic.

It was Lu Xiang who Liu Boqing came to see specifically this time, Liu Ge's adviser.

"Sir, what should we do?" Liu Boqing looked at the other party's behavior, displeasure flashed in his eyes, but he could only lower his voice and ask for advice.

Lu Xiang closed his eyes and said nothing. After a while, he slowly opened his eyes.

"I have already said that Gu Zhao has a strong and decisive temperament. When she believes that she is not wrong, she will not be afraid to bow her head no matter who she is."

"Even if her biological parents are malicious towards her, she can still destroy her family."

"So when she found out that Hu Ying's death was caused by the queen instigating others to frame her, she would never swallow her anger." Lu Xiang touched his beard, "When I saw it today, it was indeed the case."

Liu Boqing's impatience was growing. This was not the first time he heard these words. Does Lu Xiang need to repeat them again?

"Sir, he knows things well. But what should we do now?"
