Chapter 18 Zhang Gongzheng

"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Bai Yutian held the long knife dripping with blood aside, and a cold light shone in his eyes.

Zhang Gongzheng, deputy governor of Shenjiying, was a subordinate of Gu Taizhong's eldest son, Gu Chengxuan.

"Call the Law Enforcement Department Qin Siming. I want to thoroughly investigate the attack on Mr. Qiao Che." Bai Yutian waved his hand.

Knowing Zhang Gongzheng, it is almost certain that this matter was planned by the Gu family. This time, even if the Gu family wants to distance themselves from each other, it will still have to be stretched, and Bai Yutian can take this opportunity to rectify the internal affairs of Tailin City.

City defense security.

Soon, Law Enforcement Department Qin Ying came to the palace and met Bai Yutian.

"Mr. Qiao, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, was attacked by an assassin tonight and almost died. It has been found that Zhang Gong, the deputy governor of the Shenji Camp, was the instigator behind the scenes. I order you to work with the Ministry of Punishment to thoroughly investigate the case and bring to justice all those who are related to the case.

Find them all." Bai Yutian said sharply.

Hearing Bai Yutian's words, Qin Ying was a little surprised. Aren't Zhang Gongzheng and Qiao Che both members of Gu Taizhong's faction? Did Qiao Che really betray Gu Taizhong?

Although he felt strange in his heart, Qin Ying did not dare to show it and could only nod in agreement.

After Qin Ying left, Bai Yutian called Dian Wei and Zhao Chuxue in again: "You two, follow Qin Ying closely, don't be discovered by him, and tell me every move he makes."

Dian Wei and Zhao Chuxue looked at each other and immediately nodded in agreement.

In Gu's Mansion, with the bright moon hanging high, a pigeon flew into Gu's Mansion and was caught by a strong figure, who took down the letter at its feet.

After seeing the contents of the letter, the strong figure showed a strong look of shock on his face. He did not dare to hesitate and knocked on Gu Taizhong's door quickly.

This figure is none other than Gu Chengxuan.

Gu Chengxuan entered Gu Taizhong's house and handed the letter to Gu Taizhong. Gu Taizhong took a look, his face suddenly darkened, and his eyes burst out with anger.

The letter clearly stated: "The assassination failed and the Forbidden Army captured the assassin."

"It's a conspiracy!" After all, Gu Taizhong was scheming and quickly figured out the key.

Obviously, this was Bai Yutian's counterintuitive plan. He deliberately attracted Qiao Che to create the illusion that Qiao Che betrayed him, and then stimulated him to kill Qiao Che. However, Bai Yutian secretly sent someone to stop him and caught him.

.

"Father, what should I do?" Gu Chengxuan was at a loss at this moment, his mind went blank.

"What else can I do? I can only kill you now. You are a waste. You can't even handle a small matter. There is such a big mistake this time. If the Dog Emperor really pursues it, you and I won't be able to chop off a hundred heads."

Gu Taizhong was furious and scolded Gu Chengxuan.

Faced with Gu Taizhong's scolding, Gu Chengxuan could only bow his head and admit his mistake without daring to refute.

Gu Taizhong took a deep breath and said: "Chengxuan, please return to the Shenji Camp as soon as possible. The current situation is special, and the only choice is to cut off the wrist."

"In addition, I will quickly send someone to contact Qin Ying from the Law Enforcement Department and get information from him." Gu Taizhong said immediately.

However, as soon as Gu Taizhong finished speaking, a voice sounded: "No."

The owner of the voice was Gu Chengfeng. From the moment Gu Chengxuan sent the killer, Gu Chengfeng felt a little uneasy. He didn't expect that an accident would really happen.

"If my prediction is correct, His Majesty will send people to keep an eye on Qin Ying. Now we can't reveal our faults. We can only quickly clear up our relationship with Zhang Gongzheng and get rid of all the people who have anything to do with him."

Hearing this, Gu Taizhong hesitated. As the deputy governor of the Shenji Camp, Zhang Gongzheng had great power. If it was dealt with this time, it would be difficult for them to fully control the Shenji Camp in the future.

Gu Chengfeng sighed and stepped forward and said: "If the three of us don't fall, the Gu family will never fall. We will lose one Zhang Gongzheng, but at least we can save our Gu family, which is definitely worth it."

At the same time, Gu Chengfeng couldn't help but wonder whether it was the woman Yun Qing who was behind this.

Although Gu Lianxi had tested Yun Qing before and said that there was nothing mysterious about Yun Qing, maybe Yun Qing hid it well and thus deceived Gu Lianxi.

If this is true, it can only mean that this woman Yun Qing is really terrible.

After Gu Taizhong heard Gu Chengfeng's words, he also knew that there was no use getting angry now, so he could only quickly distance himself from the relationship between himself and the assassination of Qiao Che.

I originally thought that assassinating Qiao Che was just a simple matter, but I didn't expect that there were actually imperial guards hiding behind the scenes, and they were defeated.

"Father, I think we can actually change the direction of the attack and not target His Majesty first. After all, Concubine Yun is also very suspicious." Gu Chengfeng said thoughtfully.

Gu Taizhong nodded, with a cold light in his eyes, "Let Lianxi take action. This time, I want the Yun family to be completely destroyed. Huh, it's just a small family in decline. How can it fight with us."

The next day, all the officials in Zhoutian Hall were solemn.

Everyone had heard about the attack on Qiao Che, but Qiao Che did not come to court because he was frightened.

"Your Majesty, I went to arrest Zhang Gongzheng, but when I arrived, I found that Zhang Gongzheng had committed suicide out of fear of crime, and all his cronies and family members were also missing." Qin Ying stood up and said respectfully.

"I know." Bai Yutian frowned and said softly.

He could probably guess the reason for Zhang Gongzheng's death, but what puzzled him was that during the investigation, Dian Wei and Zhao Chuxue had been secretly watching Qin Ying, but they did not see Qin Ying or him at all.

The subordinates and others come into contact with the Gu family members.

Originally, Bai Yutian planned to take this opportunity to deal a severe blow to the Gu family and rectify the Criminal Department and Law Enforcement Department. But now it seems that his thoughts are a little too good.

The Gu family is not that stupid yet.

However, it was not without gains. Zhang Gongzheng's death was also a big loss to the Gu family.

"Order the Law Enforcement Department to continue to pursue this matter and investigate all personnel around Zhang Gongzheng."

Bai Yutian then said to Qin Ying.

"Gu Chengxuan." Bai Yutian said coldly.

When he heard Bai Yutian calling him, Gu Chengxuan's expression straightened and he stood up, "Your Majesty."

"Zhang Gong is your subordinate. I wonder what you think about this matter?"

Hearing Bai Yutian's question, Gu Chengxuan glanced at Gu Taizhong lightly, and saw Gu Taizhong nodded lightly.

Gu Chengxuan looked calm, "Your Majesty, Zhang Gongzheng is simply treasonous. He openly assassinated Mr. Qiao and deserved his death. But I don't know about the grudge between Zhang Gongzheng and Mr. Qiao. If I had known about it earlier, I would definitely have warned Zhang Gongzheng."

Gu Chengxuan's tone was extremely sincere, and what he said was more truthful than the truth.

Bai Yutian certainly didn't believe Gu Chengxuan's rhetoric. In his memory, the Gu family had done a lot of things that were both overt and treacherous.
