From Changzhong County to Kyoto, Gu Yu couldn't see the scenery outside in the carriage. It was only dark and closed, and she felt a little cold at night.
Zhang Duwei was quite sensible. He passed by the inn and the town and knew how to bring some hot soup and hot food to Gu Yu.
In his spare time, he also knew how to talk to her, and more often, he talked about what happened to Gu Yu's father back then.
After talking too much, Captain Zhang couldn't help but feel a sense of desolation that things were different and people were different.
More than twenty aristocratic families and hundreds of officials, in order to prevent the land equalization system, knelt down and asked the Holy Father to thoroughly investigate the unfounded crimes, shackles the dignified prince, and imprisoned him in a chariot.
Captain Zhang sighed: "It would be great if the Duke of Laozhen was here."
If the Duke of Laozhen was still there and the Gu family army was still there, how could Gu Yu be bullied to this extent?
Gu Yu looked at the light coming through the gap in the carriage and said: "It will come back. The glory of the Zhenguo Palace and the glory of the Gu family army will come back sooner or later."
Three days later, the team escorting Gu Yu finally arrived in Kyoto, and the bus stopped at Jingzhao Mansion.
Gu Yu walked out of the carriage with the help of Lieutenant Zhang.
The sunlight was so bright that it was blinding. Gu Yu, who had been in the dim environment for a long time, raised his hand to cover his eyes, and the shackles made a clanking sound.
Zhang Duwei said: "The official sent me here."
Gu Yu said: "On this journey, Captain Zhang will be working hard."
Lieutenant Zhang said sternly: "My young master, in front of the court, you must hold on and don't let your reputation as the Duke of Laozhen fall."
Gu Yu straightened her back. Although her hair was messy and her clothes were disheveled, she was still the same proud Gu Yu.
Gu Yu said: "No."
Gu Yu's hands and feet were shackled, making a squeaking sound when he walked.
She was calm and composed, and in everyone's various eyes, she looked like a young master strolling through flowers and willows.
Finally, we arrived at the official office of Jingzhao Mansion. In front of the three official tables were Ju Zishi, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Di Luo, the minister of Dali Temple, and Qiao Min, the censor of Yushitai.
The last time Gu Yu participated in the trial of the three divisions, it was Di Luo who was on trial.
Now the situation between the two of them has undergone earth-shaking changes, and it has to be said that fate plays a trick on people.
And where Jingzhao Yilu was supposed to sit, Junze sat.
The two of them were only a few steps away, but they seemed to be thousands of miles apart.
Gu Yu knew that Junze was sitting here today because he represented the aristocratic family.
The aristocratic family wants to push her to the bottom, and Junze is sent to be a witness to ensure that things go smoothly.
Di Luo looked at Gu Yu in the hall and said, "Gu Yu, the sinner, why don't you kneel down?"
Gu Yu looked at Di Luo coldly and said, "Since I am not guilty, why should I kneel down?"
Di Luo said: "You have committed a serious crime and the evidence is conclusive, how dare you say you are not guilty?"
Gu Yudao: "Speaking of which, Mr. Di would like to tell me, what sins do I have? And who set these sins for me?"
All the officials petitioned the Holy One to conduct a thorough investigation of Gu Yu.
Not every one of the ten sins has conclusive evidence, which is also the purpose of today's three-judge trial.
Only if Gu Yu is made to admit these crimes can he be punished severely.
Di Luo said: "How can you be allowed to be so presumptuous in court?"
Dilo winked at an official beside him.
The official took a step forward with a water and fire stick in his hand and said: "Mr. Gu, please don't toast me and you will be fined with wine."
Gu Yu glanced at the official, and suddenly an expression of enlightenment appeared on his face, and said: "I remember you. You served me when I was in the Ministry of Justice, and you asked me to promote you. You were very diligent at that time."
Gu Yu glanced at Di Luo intentionally or unintentionally, and said: "It's so similar to Mr. Di's posture at certain times, he almost called me daddy. Why can't you stay in the Ministry of Punishment? Find a way to find Mr. Di and give it to Dali Temple
Become a slave?"
Gu Yu laughed softly.
Di Luo was so angry that his veins popped out because of his accusations against Huai. Gu Yu dared to ridicule him in public about accepting Shao Wuji as his godfather.
Di Luo gritted his teeth and said, "Gu Yu! How dare you disrespect the court? Do you think the crime is too light?"
He winked at the official again. The official held a fire and water stick and struck Gu Yu's leg with one stick.
Gu Yu didn't expect that Di Luo would dare to kill him without being convicted. He was caught off guard and was hit with a stick. He leaned forward and knelt on the ground. His nose hit the ground, and a stream of blood instantly poured out.
Several government officials stepped forward at Di Luo's signal, and pressed several water and fire sticks on the back of her neck, back, and legs.
Gu Yu came all the way from Changzhong County and spent a lot of energy. She was very skilled in suppressing people with water and fire sticks. She was pressed to the ground in an extremely awkward posture for a while, and she couldn't get up even though she tried her best.
Gu Yu did not dare to raise her head. Such a situation was too humiliating. She did not want to face Junze in such an unbearable manner.
Junze's hand under the table suddenly tightened, and then slowly let go, turning a blind eye to everything that happened in front of him.
"Enough!"
An angry shout came from above Gu Yu's head.
Gu Yu raised his head with difficulty and looked in the direction of the source of the sound.
"The responsibilities of various crimes have not yet been sorted out, and Gu Yu has not yet confessed her crime. She is still a first-class princess. If you dare to insult her like this, I will definitely send you a letter and participate in Master Di's personal revenge!"
Ju Zishi's face was still smelly and hard, and he got angry in public, leaving no dignity for Di Luo.
Gu Yu never expected that at this time, the person speaking for her would be Ju Zishi, who had kicked her out.
Under Ju Zishi's angry shouting, Di Luo was in a dilemma. While pretending to be resentful towards Gu Yu, he still waved his hand and asked several government officials to leave.
As soon as the water and fire stick restraining Gu Yu was withdrawn, she staggered up from the ground and wiped the blood under her nose with her sleeve. The left half of her face was inevitably stained with blood.
Gu Yu saw Junze from the corner of his eye. He was leaning on his chair with an expressionless face. He seemed to be just watching the trial of the three divisions, acting as if he was indifferent.
Gu Yu lowered his eyes and said: "Tell me, which ten crimes have been assigned to me, so that I can refute them one by one."
Di Luo took out the folder and read one by one:
"To deceive the Holy One and secretly help students to cheat in the imperial examinations is a crime of betraying the Emperor's favor.
The Wenhan Department was the office of the Holy Master, and Gu Yu, as the director, collaborated with Wenhan, a bachelor, to be servile and charming, and worked in a treacherous manner to sow discord between the emperor and his ministers, resulting in incomprehensible government orders and disharmony between the emperor and his ministers. This was the second crime.
In the name of administration, people's lives are taken lightly and innocent people are killed indiscriminately. This is the third crime.
Forming cliques for personal gain, selling one's official position, extorting money, openly asking for bribes, and being greedy are the four crimes.
Stealing authority and framing loyal people, all with evil intentions, are the five crimes.
Last year, the traitor Prince An rebelled and spread rumors widely. Gu Yu did nothing and allowed them to spread and slander the Holy One. This is the sixth crime..."
Gu Yu originally listened nonchalantly to the crimes listed for her by the family, until she heard the sixth crime, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Junze.
Junze's eyes were cold and he looked at Gu Yu without concealment.
Gu Yu's teeth were trembling, and his heart felt chilly.
She understands.
It wasn't until now that she understood.
Why did the Holy One, who was supposed to protect her integrity, order a three-judge trial against her?
Seeing Gu Yu's expression change, Junze leaned back and seemed to be responding to Gu Yu.
