Chapter 211 Ear Piercing

"Father!" At this moment, Gu Jincheng suddenly called out, and he pushed the wheelchair in front of Emperor Changde, "It's getting late, my son thought, it's better for Father to go back and rest first."

"Lin Lang is also Erchen's younger sister, and Erchen won't be able to find out anything after a while, so it's better to leave this matter to Erchen."

"I will definitely assist Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice to bring to justice the real culprit behind Lin Lang's murder."

Gu Jincheng never meddled in sensitive matters, but this time, he even offered to investigate the cause of Gu Linlang's death.

Emperor Changde's eyes darkened, and he stared at him for a moment, wanting to know whether Gu Jincheng really wanted to find the murderer for his sister, or for what?
However, Gu Jincheng's eyes were indignant, with a tinge of blood, which was hard to see.

After a while, Emperor Changde nodded slightly, "Okay, Jincheng, you must thoroughly investigate this matter."

After speaking, Emperor Changde looked at Gu Linlang's body and sighed again.

"Your Majesty, my concubine will serve you back." Yun Xiaomei suppressed her flustered expression and hurriedly followed.

"Miss Yun, please stop!" Gu Jincheng shouted suddenly, looking at Xiaomei Yun's eyes with a bit of coldness, "I have some questions, I still need to ask you."

Emperor Changde also sighed: "My concubine, after all, you gave the pair of red coral earrings to Princess Yu, so you should stay and help Jincheng investigate the murderer."

"The concubine obeys." Miss Yun lowered her head slightly, and could only agree.

After Emperor Changde left, Gu Linlang's body was carried into the ice coffin, and Gu Shiyin took Feng Xihe away.

Before leaving, Feng Xihe said to Gu Jincheng: "Your Highness, Second Prince, I don't need to say anything now, you should understand."

She looked back at Zhao Chu and Yun Xiaomei again, "I thought that the two of you have long since died of old age, but unexpectedly, the old love has rekindled."

"Princess Yu, don't talk nonsense here!" Miss Yun looked around nervously.

After seeing Feng Xihe's words, all the palace people saw that she had a very different look from Zhao Chushi, and said: "My palace has been in the ancient temple in the deep mountains all year round, and I have been with the ancient Qingdeng Buddha. In contact with outsiders, except for a few people in my own family, I don’t know other people, let alone high-ranking officials like Master Zhao.”

Feng Xihe shrugged, and said with a slight smile: "Then I will be my concubine and hear what you said, and you two can do it yourself."

As soon as she finished speaking, she left with Gu Shiyin holding hands.

Feng Xihe believed that Gu Jincheng would not be ignorant of Zhao Chu and Yun Xiaomei's past.

Gu Jincheng lowered his eyelids, and he asked someone to clean up the snow, then called Zhao Chu and Yun Xiaomei to the gazebo, and stepped back.

"Master Zhao, Empress Yunbi, don't you think it's time to talk to me?"

A hint of cruelty gradually appeared in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "How did Lin Lang offend you so much that you insisted on killing her!"

Zhao Chu and Yun Xiaomei looked at each other, and then, Zhao Chu's legs trembled slightly, and his voice was low, "Please spare our lives, Your Highness the Second Prince!"

"When did you Marquis of Wu'an's mansion get so complacent that you dared to kill my own sister? It was because she broke the adultery between the two of you!" Gu Jincheng's eyes were full of storms.

Zhao Chu wanted to beg for mercy, but there was no door.

Not long after, a few silver needles flew past, and Zhao Chu's knees were already oozing bright red blood.

Yun Xiaomei hurriedly supported Zhao Chu, and said to Gu Jincheng: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, have you forgotten how the Hou Mansion eliminated dissidents for you in the past, and how it raised money for you?"

"Master Hou still keeps those evidences. Fifth Young Master Zhao has returned to Jinling now. If you push us out, Master Hou will definitely ask Fifth Young Master Zhao to present all the evidence to His Majesty. Everyone can only die. !"

Zhao Chu leaned tremblingly in Xiaomei Yun's arms, acquiescing to her words.

"Miss Yunbi, you really have a deep affection for Master Zhao!" A sneer appeared on Gu Jincheng's lips.

He remembered that Yun Xiaomei was inserted into the palace by Yun Changyi to win the hearts of the Empress Dowager and Emperor Changde, and she was supposed to do things for him.

Now, Xiaomei Yun was overwhelmed by her emotions and turned to help Zhao Chu.There is no need for him to continue using such an unfaithful chess game.

However, what Xiaomei Yun said was exactly what he was worried about.

Sure enough, the Zhao family still had their cards in their hands.

Just now, he took the initiative to ask Emperor Changde to investigate this matter, in order to let Zhao Chu and the others show their last cards, so that they could use this to destroy all the evidence before sending them on the road. "

"Miss Yunbi, you are serious." Afterwards, a warm smile appeared on Gu Jincheng's face, like the spring breeze in March.

"Although Lin Lang is Ben Gong's younger sister, Ben Gong knows what is most important right now."

"You two don't have to worry, I will let the maid named A Ci be the scapegoat, claiming that she stole the jewelry of the seventh princess, and killed the seventh princess after she was discovered by the seventh princess."

Seeing that Gu Jincheng seemed to be intimidated, Yun Xiaomei looked at Zhao Chu hesitantly.

Zhao Chu was also puzzled, would Gu Jincheng let them go so easily?
"Is what the Second Prince said true?"

"It's absolutely true!" Gu Jincheng promised swearingly.

He just wanted to delay time, stabilize them, and then let people get all the evidence in their hands as soon as possible.

"Okay, then the Marquis will trust His Royal Highness the Second Prince once." Zhao Chu silently nodded.

He couldn't trust Gu Jincheng, and he had already made up his mind. Since Gu Jincheng cared about the evidence, he asked someone to notify Zhao Wu and ask him to put everything away.

The north wind continued to roar wildly, and the night was pitch black, as if ink had been splashed on it.

Perhaps it was because of the extra life, and this life was the noble Seventh Princess. Everyone felt that this night was extraordinarily cold. After returning to their own rooms, they rested early.

After Feng Xihe followed Gu Shiyin back to the room, he sat down at the table with him.

"My lord, have your people seized a batch of dirty silver that flowed into Jinling City from the border recently?" Under the candlelight, Feng Xihe's eyes flickered, and he approached him with a smile.

"Are you short of money?" Gu Shiyin raised his eyebrows casually.

Feng Xihe shook his head, and said in detail: "Didn't Zhao Wu go back to Jinling City recently? Isn't the Zhao family in this situation, should be very short of money, how about we give him some money?"

Gu Shiyin seemed to think about it seriously, and then he said lightly: "If the king wants to give it away, he will give it a huge sum of money."

Feng Xihe nodded in agreement, and not long after, Gu Shiyin sent someone to handle the matter.

She closed the window, she remembered that Hua Nu had mentioned to her that Zhao Chu had already suspected him.

It's time to remove Hua Nu from Concubine Zhao.

So Feng Xi and Yuanying came in and asked Yuanying to bring a letter to Hua Nu.

Then, seeing that it was getting late, she planned to change clothes and rest.

Gu Shiyin didn't get up for a long time, his eyes stayed on her left earlobe, and there was a hint of deep thought and self-blame in his eyes.

Feng Xihe asked suspiciously, "Is there something on my ear?"

She remembered that she had taken off the red coral earrings given by Yun Xiaomei and handed them to Gu Jincheng.

Gu Shiyin was silent, and then he asked, "Are you still afraid of pain?"

Feng Xi was slightly stunned, she shook her head.

"Ziyu, since my mother passed away, no one has pierced my ears again. This is my long-standing regret."

"If you want, can you pierce my ears once?"

"From now on, don't ask me if I am willing. There is nothing about you that I am not willing to do." Gu Shiyin stared into her eyes, the playful smile in the corners of which had long since disappeared.

Feng Xihe's heart trembled, she sat down in front of the bronze mirror, bowed her head slightly, she wanted to say something, but couldn't say anything.

"It will hurt a little, just bear with it." Gu Shiyin fetched tools and patiently pierced her ears.

Feng Xihe pursed her lips and said nothing, she put her hand on the pot of Four Seasons Camellia in front of her, her thoughts had already drifted far away.

She never understood why Gu Shiyin treated her differently from the very beginning, especially in such an embarrassing situation.

"Does it hurt?" Halfway through, Gu Shiyin asked again in a low voice. Feng Xihe was still in a state of fugue, and didn't feel the pain. He just looked at the camellia numbly, twisting the petals of the camellia with his fingers repeatedly.

But Gu Shiyin suddenly stuck to her ear and said, "I'm sorry, Xihe, I should have found you sooner."

turn up?Feng Xi was slightly startled, and she withdrew her thoughts, only to realize that she had picked off more than half of the petals of the camellia, and spread them finely in front of the bronze mirror.

Before she could ask, Gu Shiyin had already pierced her ears.

Afterwards, Gu Shiyin took out an exquisite sandalwood box, and when he opened it, there was a pair of moon white stone bead flower earrings inside.

Gu Shiyin took out one and put it on both earlobes for Feng Xihe.

Feng Xihe looked at himself in the bronze mirror, and saw that the earrings were dangling under the dim candlelight, which was really lively.

Gu Shiyin supported her shoulders, and his usual smile appeared on his lips, "For your husband to help you fulfill your wish, shouldn't you say something that your husband loves to hear as a reward?"

"What do you like to hear?" Feng Xihe recalled it immediately, she turned her head to hide the secret smile in her eyes, "You are so boring."

Gu Shiyin's eyes darkened, and his lips fell on the tip of her nose, "You say this king is boring?"

Feng Xihe nodded heavily, brushed his face away, and turned his head shyly, picking up the messy camellia petals.

There are wood in the mountains and branches in the wood, and the heart is happy and the king does not know.

Heavy snow continued to fall on the ground, and this night was not peaceful.

At the gate of the city, wine jars exuding mellow aromas were neatly placed on bullock carts, and the drivers were wearing heavy cotton coats, driving the cattle carrying wine.

Beside the ox cart, a line of guards stood, responsible for escorting the wine to be safely transported to various shops in Jinling City.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

However, after a while, they ran into a group of Gyeonggi guards patrolling and Gu Jinnian sitting on a tall horse.

"Open the wine jar!" Gu Jinnian led someone to stop their way.
