Chapter 122 Picking Chrysanthemums and Seeing Nanshan

After entering the main hall, An Yu offered tea and stood by the side silently.

"Master Gu, in fact, my son came here today to ask for advice."

"My lord, please tell me."

Yu Ziye took out the bloody jade buckle and put it on the table.

Gu Yunshu looked closely, surprised, "Huh?"

"Master Gu knows him?"

"To be honest, this jade buckle was originally owned by a subordinate official. I don't know why it fell into the hands of the crown prince. What's the reason for this blood stain? Could it be the one in Xu Lin's murder case?"

"Master Gu, are you sure this is yours?" Yu Ziye asked.

"Yes, it's just that it has been lost a few days ago, and it has been searched to no avail."

Yu Ziye told the whole story, but Gu Yunshu was still puzzled, "But the official hasn't taken it out of the mansion recently, so how could it be lost in Jiyuefang and picked up by Miss Xiyan?"

"Could it be that Mr. Gu wants to say that it slipped out with its long legs?"

Yu Ziye said it unintentionally, but the smile on his face gradually faded, and he looked up at Su Zhen.

The latter thinks that Yu Ziye and the others met an assassin after leaving Jiyuefang last night, and suddenly feels that the jade buckle was not picked up by Xiyan, or maybe she stole it?
Then why was she silenced again?

Gu Yunshu followed his gaze, "Brother Nanshan, do you have other opinions?"

"May I ask my lord, where did this jade buckle come from?"

"This is my mother's relic."

"It's a pity to say that. The jade is forbidden to be bloody. It's better for you to wear it less in the future."

Facing Su Zhen's temptation, Gu Yunshu's face remained unchanged, "It's okay, can the prince return it to the subordinate?"

"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. It's now a witness. When the case is over, I will help you get it back."

"Alright."

"Master Gu, this jade has spirituality, where did your mother get it?" Su Zhen asked.

Gu Yunshu's smile didn't reach his eyes, and he replied casually, "Ancestral."

"Really? According to my observation, this piece of jade is at least ten thousand years old."

"I didn't expect Brother Nanshan to know jade."

"The villain is short-sighted, so naturally he doesn't understand. It's just that my eyes can detect spiritual energy. Whether it is a treasure or not can be known at a glance."

"That's really strange. I didn't expect that I didn't know I had this treasure in my hand."

"Tsk! There's something even more unusual! The villain has learned face counting from charlatans, and I dare not say whether his guess is accurate, but he can be pretty close, but the villain really can't see through Mr. Gu." Su Zhen is very humble.

The eyes of the two intertwined, sensing the playfulness in her eyes, Gu Yunshu looked away.

"Since he is a quack warlock, he can't be completely trusted."

"What Mr. Gu said is true! Hey, by the way, it's a pity for that girl named Qiqi. The Tang Taiwei holds a lot of power. This time, Mr. Tang will be fine. When the girl Qiqi is not sure, she can just say goodbye." To be a scapegoat."

Gu Yunshu asked unhurriedly, "Brother Nanshan also thinks Tang Yinchen is guilty?"

Su Zhen leaned forward very doggedly, "Yes! You don't know, my family's eldest son was almost implicated last night. I went to visit Siwei's mansion today, never thought that he would dare to insult the eldest son. I wanted to use this jade buckle to convict him. I didn’t expect to find the original owner for it first, Mr. Gu, this is really fate!"

"So that's the case. According to what you said, is it true that Mr. Tang's family is as sinful as the folks say?"

"Maybe that's true! If he is a good person, why are they framing him!"

Yu Ziye heard Su Zhen trying to smear Tang Yinchen, his lips trembled while suppressing a smile.

"But today in the court hall, I was also present. He is righteous and jealous, not like a bad person."

"Really? It must be that he hides too deeply, even you have been deceived."

"I didn't expect Brother Nanshan to be so loyal, always complaining about the grievances for the son."

"It's natural."

From the corner of Su Zhen's eyes, she glanced into the room, and suddenly saw a black corner of her clothes protruding from behind.

"Master Gu, you"

Su Zhen still wanted to cheat a few more words, but Gu Yunshu was the first to speak out, "My lord, I still have official business to do. I don't know much about the jade buckle, but the Xu family should have clues. If you want to , might as well go check again."

This is the order to evict guests.

"Then let's take our leave first. Thank you, Mr. Gu, for letting me know. I'll treat you to a drink some other day."

"It's time to ask the prince to be an official."

Yu Ziye responded with a smile, and walked outside.

"Respectfully send off the son." Yu Changqing once again saluted and sent him off.

Before Su Zhen left, she took a meaningful look at the room, and then followed Yu Ziye's steps.

Gu Yunshu sent him out of the mansion, and hurried back to Zhiqiu Garden.

After making An Yu back down, he said in a concentrated voice, "Come out."

When the people in the house came out, it was the man in black who rescued Su Zhen last night.

"Heh! Name it Nanshan? He's pretty good at catering."

Plucking chrysanthemum under the east fence, you can see Nanshan leisurely.

Gu Yunshu sat back in his seat, took a sip of tea and asked, "Since you're back, why don't you meet Su Zhen face to face?"

"The time has not come yet." He replied flatly.

"Just now he deliberately said in front of me that Qiqi might become Tang Yinchen's scapegoat, and he also slandered Tang Yinchen and slandered his reputation to test me. I always feel that something is wrong."

"Could it be that he sensed the jade aura on your body and became suspicious?"

"It's hard to say, let's not talk about him, when do you plan to come back?"

"In the past few days, I have written a note to inform the emperor."

"So good."

The man in black thought for a while, but was still uneasy, "You and Yuchen act carefully, they will start directly from the Taiwei's mansion, and they must be impatient."

"Even though they are so powerful, is it possible that they really dare to disregard the king's law, frame them arbitrarily, and disregard human lives?!"

He sneered, "You have been immersed in the officialdom for many years and deal with them all day, do you still think that those people have good intentions?"

"That's not true. I think they are too rampant. If the throne falls into the hands of King Qin, I'm afraid the country will be destroyed."

"The death of Xu Lin, the Xu family not only straightened the family style, but also dealt a heavy blow to the Taiwei's mansion, and dragged you into the water by the way. Now it has polluted the Hou's and Taifu's mansions, and even the emperor has paid more attention to it. Tolerance is really a strategy that kills many birds with one stone."

"So, even you think King Qin sent someone to kill Xu Lin?"

"It's not impossible, but it's also possible that Xu Jing offered a plan to please King Qin. If he is really so vicious, Su Zhen and the others may really be kicked on the iron plate. I'm not here for a few days. If they are in a dilemma, please help them a handful."

"it is good."

Xiao Chuhong's eyes flickered with coldness, and he took off his mask slowly.

Those people owed him, even if they gave everything, they must pay with blood!
After Yu Ziye and the two left Zuo Xiangfu, they walked on the street holding the reins, and Su Zhen looked back from time to time.

"Ah Ning, Gu Yunshu must have concealed something. Even if it is not the murderer, it must be involved in this case."

"Of course, otherwise he wouldn't be in a hurry to let us leave." Su Zhen stroked her chin, "But I always feel something strange, how could the aura on his body be heavier than the jade button itself?"
