Zhe Furong: After widowhood and rebirth, she was pampered by treacherous ministers

Chapter 100 Arrogant
When hearing the news, Jiang Yue's first thought was that Gu Mo let it out.

But when I thought about it again, I felt a little lost in my heart.

Although this person is a bit arrogant, he shouldn't have reached this level, right?

On the other side, Gu Mo didn't know what Jiang Yue was thinking.

At this moment, he was standing on the Golden Luan Hall, dressed in a black official robe, which compared with the majestic hall, was exceptionally suitable.

The cold poison in his body has been relieved, and his body has relaxed a lot. The whole person does not look pale and cold before, and his complexion looks better.

He originally had a beautiful face, but now his face is peachy, adding a bit of fatal temptation.

Just standing there, people can't help but take a second look.

Gu Mo's changes are really big, these people have been going to court with him all the time, even if you are dull, you can sense something is wrong.

The first person to notice something was wrong was the emperor.

Looking at Gu Mo's gradually rosy face, he suddenly felt a little flustered in his heart, but his face didn't show at all, and he asked tentatively.

"Gu Qing's health seems to be much better. After the court is over, come with me to the imperial study and ask the imperial doctor to give you a safe pulse."

It was a time for major commercial affairs above the court, but no one was surprised when the emperor said such a sentence out of the blue.

After all, the emperor of the dynasty was tolerant to Gu Mo, which is already known in the world.

Gu Mo still had a calm expression on his face, he stood up and nodded slightly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. You forgot that the former minister felt unwell. You just asked the imperial physician to come, and you also rewarded him with a lot of supplements. The Holy Dragon's Might, the emperor's grace is so great, and the minister's health has naturally improved a lot."

Gu Mo's expression was relaxed, he didn't look like he was ill just two days ago.

Although the emperor was a little skeptical, he also understood that what he said was the truth, he frowned slightly, and suppressed his thoughts.

However, just when he was about to announce his retirement, Gu Mo suddenly stood up.

"Qi Zou Your Majesty, I have a book to play."

Gu Mo's face was calm, and there was no warmth in his eyes.

It was obviously his usual expression, but for some reason, the emperor always felt that something was wrong, and felt a little uneasy.

But he still didn't show anything on his face, and asked kindly.

"Oh? Gu Qing, is there anything else?"

Gu Mo raised his head and said in a clear voice: "I recently heard some rumors about the extermination case of Dingguo Duke's family back then. Because it involved a lot, I specifically asked for verification..."

"Gu Mo! This matter has passed for many years, what's the point of you talking about it?"

Before Gu Mo finished speaking, the emperor suddenly interrupted him sharply.

After the words fell, he seemed to realize that he had lost his composure, so he quickly eased his expression and made a sad gesture.

"I'm also very sad about the death of your parents, but it's even more chilling for you to believe in rumors."

As the emperor spoke, he put pressure on Gu Mo, trying to get him to suppress the matter, but Gu Mo seemed to be unable to feel it, and remained calm, and his lack of tone increased by two points.

"Your Majesty, it's about the innocence of my Dingguo government, so I have to investigate."

"If Your Majesty is unwilling to investigate, then I will hand over the complaint to the Nine City Army and Horse Division, and let them handle it directly!"

Ninetowns Bingma Division is not the place to handle cases.

However, Commander Yue of the Nine Cities Bingma Division used to be a Dingguogong subject, and he highly respected the former Dingguogong.

If he knew that Ding Guogong had grievances before his death, he would never sit idly by and have to investigate the matter to the bottom.

The emperor's hand clenched the faucet under his hand for a moment, and his eyes were dark for a moment.

"So, what are you going to do?"

This sentence already carries some warning meaning, if Gu Mo is sensible, this meeting should stop and turn the matter into a minor one.

But he didn't, it was as if he had prepared a long time ago, he pulled out a memorial from his sleeve and handed it to the servant to put it on.

"Back then, my father was ordered to investigate the corruption case of Jiangnan floods, but he was slandered and filled his own pocket. Before he could clear up his grievances, he was surrounded by refugees and stoned to death. My mother didn't want to believe it when she heard about it. , but while still on the way, he was intercepted and brutally killed by bandits, leaving no bones left."

Gu Mo was dressed in a black official robe, and stood upright on the Golden Luan Hall, with his hands behind his back, his voice high and resonant.

When he said this, some people couldn't bear it.

You must know that the deeds of those years were indeed tragic. When Ding Guogong was exterminated, Gu Mo was still a child, but he was forced to grow up and take care of his parents' funeral.

Everyone couldn't help whispering, even the emperor's face was a little ugly, and the voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth.

"Gu Mo, this matter is over, even if you are sad, you can't reverse the fact that both your parents died."

"Your Majesty is right, these are all past events."

Gu Mo nodded, as if he didn't hear the discussions from the people around him.

"But what I want to say is not these, but after my parents died, within half a month, the court found out the truth and returned my parents' innocence, but what I am a little confused about is that Fang Tong was just a county town in the south of the Yangtze River. How can a small county magistrate in the county have such a great ability to embezzle 10 taels of gold and silver. In addition, the imperial court distributed relief food, which was hundreds of tons of food. When searching, it was found that the granary was empty. Where did they all go?"

Gu Mo spoke every word, and every question was extremely sharp.

So this is his question, someone in the court hall kept wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, looking flustered.

The emperor had a gloomy face, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't say it.

Gu Mo glanced at him, and continued: "Li Fangze, Minister of the Household Department, was originally a Yu official in charge of the granary in Jiangnan County, but because of his meritorious service in reporting on the county magistrate, he jumped several levels. The governor Wei Zhang Miao is also from Jiangnan County A small military officer was promoted to the capital because of his meritorious service in catching a thief, and..."

Before Gu Mo could name a person, the face of the emperor above his head became gloomy, and in the end it was as gloomy as ink, almost dripping water.

"Gu Mo, what you said is all your own conjecture. These people are in their current positions because of their abilities..."

"Ability? Your Majesty, are you not afraid that their necks will hurt when you say this? The black gauze hat on the head is not so easy to wear."

Gu Mo meant to point out something, and glanced lightly at the emperor's body. For some reason, the frivolous and indifferent eyes looked exactly like that person, making the emperor stiffen involuntarily.
