Chapter 229 Chapter 228
Father and son fight, Princess Bo smiles?
It looks like a game, but how is it different from humiliation.

The scene was silent for a while, and everyone didn't dare to show their anger. They only looked at the Governor of Liangzhou and Lan Lianhu who were pointed out by Gu Aman.

Especially the soldiers of Liangzhou Inspector, it was hard to hide their anger at this time.

However, Gu Aman seemed to turn a blind eye and only smiled at the governor of Liangzhou in the hall.

"What are you waiting for?"

The governor of Liangzhou looked at Gu Aman quietly for a while, his eyelids drooped slightly, but he couldn't hide the light in his eyes.

For a long time, no one made a sound.

Needles can be heard in the hall.

Until the governor of Liangzhou clasped his fists and saluted, although he was speechless, he had already expressed his attitude.

Gu Aman's smile deepened, she raised her hand and poured two glasses of water and wine, her posture was lazy and elegant.

"I like obedient people. This wine is the wine I bestow on today's gladiator warriors."

Lan Lianhu thought that Gu Aman would hand over the wine himself, but in fact, Gu Aman just poured the wine, as if it was already a great gift.

She smiled at the corner of her mouth, as if teasing the fish in the pond, throwing the bait, waiting for the fish to compete.

But in fact, it was Gu Aman who repeatedly challenged the governor of Liangzhou's bottom line.

The four Patriarchs, Wang Lu, Songxiao, looked at each other, and then turned their attention to Liangzhou Inspector. Obviously, everyone was watching Liangzhou Inspector, wanting to know how he would respond.

Should he stick to his own strength of character, or bow his head under the power of King Zhao.

Lan Lianhu was also looking at his adoptive father. Unlike others, he knew his adoptive father's character very well.

Regardless of Gu Aman's identity, such a slap in the face has already angered his adoptive father.

And like a person who angered his adoptive father, he has disappeared in this world.

He looked at Gu Aman worriedly.

He didn't understand why Gu Aman insisted on doing this.

Two glasses of water and wine stood quietly on the table, and the clear liquid was unobstructed.

Lan Lianhu took a step forward, "My father manages the army strictly, and the most taboo is to drink and make mistakes. Today he has to arrange people to protect the princess' safety. Let me drink this wine."

However, Gu Aman glanced at him up and down, with playfulness in his eyes without concealing it, "It turns out that I am in your city lord's mansion, and my life is in danger."

Lan Lianhu only felt a headache, that's not what he meant.

However, Gu Aman suddenly frowned, and sighed with self-pity, "Actually, I know that you, Da Wei, don't take me seriously as a princess at all."

"Heavy guards from officers and soldiers can also make the team I sent my relatives off to be robbed, and I lost so many thoughts to take to Wei."

"When I got to Beijing, the emperor blamed me. I have to complain to him. After all, I didn't lose this thing long ago, and I didn't lose it later. Why did it just disappear in your Liangzhou city?"

This is no different from a threat.

Liangzhou Inspector sounds like a very powerful official, but compared with the thousands of officials in the Great Wei Dynasty, this is just the most humble official position.

I'm afraid that at that time, this unintentional sentence will already be able to drastically change the officialdom in Liangzhou.

Of course, the governor of Liangzhou was the first to bear the brunt of this.

An unspeakable anger welled up in Lan Lianhu's heart. If someone else said this, he could act as if nothing happened. After all, in the officialdom, the big fish eat the small fish.

But when this person was replaced by Gu Aman, he was angry and a little unbelievable. Gu Aman should not be like this in his impression.

That gentle, beautiful, strong and independent girl now made him feel very strange.

Lan Lianhu's emotions were all written on his face. Gu Aman saw it, but turned his gaze to the governor of Liangzhou who "bears the burden of humiliation".

Being suppressed by the unruly and willful Princess Zhaoguo, I don't know how many people complained about this lord.

It's a pity that the official rank crushes people to death.

The governor of Liangzhou picked up the cup, the exquisite and small cup was as small as an embroidery needle in his hand, he stared at Gu Aman closely, and then drank it down.

Gu Aman clapped his hands and applauded, "You're so good."

"Your Excellency has treated me so kindly to Zhao Kingdom. When I enter Beijing, I will definitely speak well of a warrior like Your Excellency!"

Lan Lianhu also picked up the quilt. While drinking, he clearly saw the aristocratic families who had watched the theater before, with envious faces, and lamented the good luck of the Lan family.

His eyes sank, he slapped the empty cup on the table, and when he raised his eyes, there was a lot of gloom in his eyes.

When wrestling was spread in Zhao Kingdom, it was so violent and bloody that it was so popular in Zhao Kingdom, which prides itself on being a gentleman.

But now, the two wrestlers are father and son. It's not so much a wrestling, it's better to say they're exchanging ideas.

But even so, the aristocratic family still watched with relish.

At the beginning, Gu Aman still had the desire to take a few glances, but in the end, he seemed to lose interest, and his eyes gradually fell on the two glasses that he poured wine into earlier.

Two cups, one high and one low.

The tall one was drunk by Lan Lianhu, and it was quite normal, while the short one belonged to the governor of Liangzhou. The delicate and fragile bottom of the cup sank into the solid boxwood table, which shows how humiliating the governor of Liangzhou must have been at that time.

A fierce and cold gaze, from the angle of view, Gu Aman raised his eyes, and saw the governor of Liangzhou swinging his fist, looking in his direction.

The air-piercing fist wind seemed not to be directed at Lan Lianhu, but to hit Gu Aman to the flesh.

The strong force made Lan Lianhu take a few steps back. Looking at the white mark on his arm that was hit by his adoptive father, both wrists were about to be knocked unconscious.

Gu Aman, who had been watching all the time, was still making sarcastic remarks, "Young Master Lan doesn't look very good."

Gu Aman hid his small fan and giggled, "It seems that I expect too much from Mr. Lan."

Lan Lianhu is so angry.

Originally, his arms were already numb from the shock, but this time he really shook his prestige, as if he was not the one who was repelled.

"Come again!"

Gu Aman's smile deepened, her fingers landed on the table, and she tapped again and again, the side seemed to be darker, but it was Lan Yishui who came over.

"You came here on the wish of the mountain master?"

Lan Yishui's voice was not loud, because everyone was paying attention to the wrestling on the field, so they didn't notice the two people who were talking.

Gu Aman shook his fan, as if he didn't hear Lan Yishui's question.

Lan Yishui seemed to understand something, "It seems that what I said is correct, but I don't understand, why do you pretend to be Princess Zhaoguo?"

Princess Zhaoguo came to get married, but when she passed Liangzhou City, she was robbed by the notorious barren people.

This is something almost everyone knows.

Wei Xianv even went to hunt down the escaped wilderness people.

Lan Yishui couldn't figure it out, "Did something happen to Princess Zhaoguo?"

Lan Yishui asked, "That's why you are impersonating..." It seems that only in this way can it make sense.

"You're really loud."

Gu Aman waved her fan and said slowly, her eyes were cold, even wearing brocade clothes and long hair and shawls could not hide them.

This is somewhat of her usual appearance.

Lan Yishui felt that she had guessed right.

"You don't understand." Lan Yishui said, "My adoptive father is different from other people. If you let her know that you are an impostor, no matter what reason you have, she will not let you go easily."

"You want to use him to establish your prestige so that everyone dare not question your identity. Although the idea is good, but you use the wrong method. If you do this, he will only hate you more and more."

Knowing that Gu Aman didn't target them specifically, Lan Yishui's voice softened a lot, "The clan is on good terms with my adoptive father, and leave Liangzhou City as soon as possible while they are here and ignore you."

Lan Yishui was trying to persuade her, but suddenly heard a faint sigh.

"Unfortunately, it's too late."

Before Lan Yishui understood the meaning of Gu Aman's words, he saw that Lan Lianhu's figure who was supposed to punch suddenly staggered, which caused the governor of Liangzhou to kick him to the ground.

Everyone drank well.

But after kicking this hard, Liangzhou Governor was also sweating profusely. He was panting heavily, and was about to take a step forward, but he felt a blur in front of him.

"Your Excellency is really old, but after a mere fist and fist, there is no power to carry on."

Gu Aman's sarcasm may be late, but it will never be absent.

"Back then, my lord was also the general of Shangjing, and he was in the limelight and had a bright future, but who knew that he made a mistake and was relegated to this desolate small city."

The governor of Liangzhou lowered his eyes, and the anger in his eyes seemed to be real, "Your Highness, please be careful with your words."

Gu Aman put his chin on his cheek and smiled, "Why is your lord angry? You should laugh heartily. After all, if you hadn't been demoted back then, your lord would never have been supported by your family for more than ten years anyway, so that you gave birth to something you shouldn't I have thoughts."

The aristocratic family who were chatting and watching the play just now looked at Gu Aman in unison after hearing this sentence.

A few days ago, the princess of the Zhao Kingdom gave them an olive branch that she had made friends with, so that they mistakenly thought that she was a very easy-going and unruly idiot, so they lowered their vigilance.

Who would have thought that the inside would be so sharp.

It even stated in one word that they had hidden their relationship for many years in private.

The governor of Liangzhou had already been supported from the ground, his eyes were gloomy, Ding looked at Gu Aman's eyes as if he was looking at a dying prey, "Who the hell are you?"

After the governor of Liangzhou finished speaking, he felt dazed for a while, his feet became weak, and if he hadn't been supported by someone, he might have fallen to his knees.

"Father!"

Lan Lianhu got up in a hurry when his conditions were not right, but just as he stood up, he fell limp and fell back to the ground.

How could this be?
Lan Lianhu looked at the hands that had lost all strength, and involuntarily looked at the cups holding the liquor in front of him.

"There is poison in the wine..."

He looked at the person sitting behind the cup who was still smiling in disbelief, and an unspeakable emotion enveloped him.

Gu Aman...

He couldn't believe that the instigator of all this would be his favorite girl.

The governor of Liangzhou also noticed something was wrong with him, he was angry and resentful, "Princess Zhaoguo is only a golden hairpin, you are not her at all, who are you!"

"Hand over the antidote!"

The guards of the governor of Liangzhou immediately unsheathed their swords and pointed at Gu Aman, and the black-clothed guards who had been called in before immediately took out their weapons and stood by Gu Aman's side.

The sword is dense, and the killing intent is surging.

The people surrounded by swords didn't seem to see the endless killing intent, the folding fan in her hand was still swinging slowly, it didn't look like being surrounded by people, but rather like watching a play.

"Your Excellency just called me His Highness, how can you turn your face and deny anyone now? Look at all these people wielding knives and guns, it frightens me."

Gu Aman patted her heart exaggeratedly, but her smile didn't reach her eyes. She looked at the soldiers who were staring at them, and also at the aristocratic family standing with the governor of Liangzhou.

At the end, she looked at the governor of Liangzhou who was being supported on the ground.

"I advise my lord to speak less and save more energy. After all, there is no cure for this medicine in you."

Lan Lianhu was taken aback, he was poisoned, or was it Gu Aman?

why?
Why did Gu Aman do this?
He wanted to question that woman who seemed to be superior, but Gu Aman really didn't even give him a look.

"Hand over the antidote!"

After a short period of panic, the personal guards of the governor of Liangzhou stepped forward with swords in hand. They were very numerous, and they were all besieged at this moment, trying to force Gu Aman to come up with an antidote.

Cao Baifeng didn't leave many soldiers behind for Gu Aman. Every time the governor of Liangzhou took a step forward, Gu Aman's security circle would be reduced by one step.

The guards in black around him looked at the approaching soldiers vigilantly, but Gu Aman, who was carefully protected in the middle, didn't have the slightest sense of being surrounded.

"You can't win."

"When I was talking to you just now, the soldiers of Great Wei have already surrounded your Liangzhou."

"Wang Lu Songxiao's four families, you have secretly colluded with Liangzhou's governor, controlled the borders around Liangzhou, and even dared to attack the Zhao Kingdom's peace team. You are ugly, and you are indeed not small."

Perhaps Gu Aman's questioning was too harsh, even though the four families had united with the governor of Liangzhou, but when they heard Gu Aman's questioning like this, they still couldn't help but refute.

"we do not have!"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"You have the audacity to impersonate the princess of the dynasty, you should be the one who is most guilty!"

What's more, she even shouted loudly, "This woman pretended to be the princess of the court and openly poisoned and murdered the officials of the Wei court. She should be captured and beheaded for public display!"

"Correct!"

"Behead him to show the public, so that I, Great Wei, will be majestic!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone responded one after another.

The appearance of righteous words, as if Gu Aman is really a heinous sinner?

"Ah……"

Gu Aman sneered, "Just because you deserve to convict me?"

It was too late to say that, at the moment when Gu Aman's words fell, countless black-clothed guards frantically rushed in from the door, and immediately surrounded everyone in the hall.

Cao Baifeng walked in from the door with his head held high, and when he passed by the governor of Liangzhou, there was still a faint smile on his lips.

"Lord Lan, long time no see in Shangjing."

The governor of Liangzhou looked at the joking Cao Baifeng for a long time and seemed to remember the identity of the person in front of him.

"It's you!"

The governor of Liangzhou turned cold, "You are Cao Baifeng!"

"It's hard for Mr. Lan to remember me as an unknown person. I thought this Liangzhou City had already been forgotten by Mr. Ling Yun, who fought on the battlefield in the past."

The governor of Liangzhou's face became more and more ugly. He looked at Cao Baifeng, and also at Gu Aman who was secretly guarded by Cao Baifeng.

"Uncle Guo, it's better not to talk about the old days. You surrounded my Liangzhou city mansion for no reason, and even poisoned me, an official of the court. If you don't give me an explanation today, I will book a book and read it to the Holy One!"

Gu Aman didn't know what to think of, suddenly he was in a good mood.

"My lord, do you know who is temporarily in charge of the court?"

Gu Aman said slowly, "It's Liu Yuan who asked you to be demoted to this point back then."

"Your Excellency was demoted because of him, but now he is being captured and bullied. When you want to get justice, you have to ask for him... Tsk tsk, Your Excellency really doesn't care about the past..."
