Chapter 148 This woman is not a good person!
"Ah!"
Gu Jingzhi smiled casually. It seemed that someone was deliberately promoting him!
"Do people outside say that I'm heartless and ungrateful, that I even harmed my own father?"
"Uh……"
Tao'er and Jian'er looked at him curiously. These words were equivalent to Gu Jingzhi admitting his identity.
"Do you know about this?"
"Oh! It's just that some people in the court don't like me and want to insult my reputation!"
Gu Jingzhi didn't care at all.
But Jian'er said worriedly, "Master, this matter is of great importance. If my reputation is tarnished, my future will be jeopardized!"
Daxia ruled the country with benevolence and filial piety. If Gu Jingzhi was really Gu Heng's son, then his actions were indeed not worthy of the word filial piety. Now seeing that he didn't care at all, Jian'er and the other daughters couldn't help but get anxious.
Their current fate is linked to Gu Jingzhi. If Gu Jingzhi's future is bleak due to his moral problems, then they will be inferior to others even if they become servants.
Gu Jingzhi smiled and said, "Don't worry about this matter, I have my own way!"
Gu Jingzhi's reputation was tarnished. This was what Emperor Xia wanted, and it was also what Song Pu and others wanted. It was true that Gu Heng was guilty of a serious crime, but Gu Jingzhi's actions might really bring him a lot of trouble in the future.
The sayings of Heaven, Earth, Emperor, Parents and Teachers can indeed shield him from some negative comments at this time.
But what if Emperor Xia is gone?
As for Song Pu, they just wanted to disgust Gu Jingzhi, especially in the circle of scholars. If Gu Jingzhi continued to carry this reputation, those scholars would inevitably criticize him.
such a pity!
Whether it was Emperor Xia or Song Pu, their wishes were destined to fail.
Without paying any attention to what his two maids were thinking, Gu Jingzhi washed up, had breakfast at home, and then took a carriage to the Dali Temple slowly.
As expected, those rumors did have an extraordinary impact on Gu Jingzhi.
When he went out, people would stop his car, and when he was at home or on duty at the Dali Temple, people would block his door.
In short, it seems that criticizing Gu Jingzhi has become a hot topic at the moment.
Gu Jingzhi naturally didn't bother to pay attention to these people. They were all insignificant people and there was no need to take them to heart.
and……
These people who let rumors influence their judgment...
What is there to argue about?
However, not everyone followed blindly. After all, Gu Jingzhi's words "Heaven, Earth, Emperor, Parents and Teachers" were still recognized by a large number of people.
Although many people agree with Gu Jingzhi's actions, they also think it is too cruel.
After all, once Gu Heng's crime was proven, there would be no doubt that the Gu family would be exiled. It could be said that Gu Jingzhi was the one who brought the Gu family, a noble family, to its demise.
Just when the entire capital was in an uproar, the Internal Guard finally arrived in the capital with the witnesses and victims of the Gu Heng case.
In a blink of an eye, the people with sad faces suddenly turned into Song Pu and the noble families behind him.
Jeju Prefecture is neither big nor small.
There are hundreds of officials, and although not that many are implicated in the Gu Heng case, if the case expands, many people will be implicated.
after all……
This is not the first or second time that the noble families have colluded with each other. If the case is thoroughly investigated, all the dirty deeds of the past will probably be unearthed.
Now that he has finally got the chance to strike the aristocratic family, how could Emperor Xia let it go?
As soon as he entered the court, Gu Jingzhi saw Song Pu with a sad face and immediately burst into joy.
This old guy had been trying to mess with him a while ago, and now it's your turn to be in trouble, right? He even encouraged students to follow him everywhere. Although Gu Jingzhi didn't take it seriously, he was really disgusted.
At the court meeting, Gu Jingzhi watched the performance of Emperor Xia and his son, while admiring Song Pu's dark face, and his heart was in great pain.
After the court was dismissed, Song Pu left quickly with an unhappy look on his face. When he came to Gu Jingzhi, the prince was talking to him about the case. Seeing Song Pu's expression, he deliberately raised his voice and said:
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will hand over all the witnesses and victims in the mansion to Your Highness in a moment! I will not let this cause any great event in the court go unnoticed!"
The prince also noticed Song Pu passing by and laughed in his heart. This is the knife used by his own emperor...
It’s really sharp!
However, he was happy to see this. He only heard the prince smile and said, "Then please trouble Lord Gu to send the person to the Inner Guard House later!"
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I'll send the person over in a moment!"
Although the case was assisted by the Three Courts, it was not appropriate for this person to be placed in either the Ministry of Justice or the Dali Temple, so the prince made the decision to place him in the Internal Guard House.
This way, there will be fewer people who can intervene in this matter.
Especially after Gu Jingzhi cheated Gu Heng last time, Tianshu checked the Inner Guard House inside and out. It turned out to be effective. He dug out a lot of rats in the Inner Guard House.
I dare not say that the Inner Guard House is flawless now, but it is not as leaky as before.
Moreover, the interference of the aristocratic families in the Inner Guard Office also reminded Tianshu to use self-inspection as one of the important means to test the Inner Guard Office.
After Gu Jingzhi returned to his mansion, he went straight to the backyard.
Zhou Yin and others couldn't help but feel worried when they heard that they were going to be handed over to the Internal Security.
"Sir, since you are the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, shouldn't you participate in the trial of this case?"
"Due to some other reasons, I cannot participate in the trial of this case, but..."
Gu Jingzhi smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. This case will be heard by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself, so you can rest assured!"
"His Royal Highness?"
Zhou Yin was shocked.
He never expected that this case would be tried by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. In this case, it would not take long for the court to give them justice.
Looking at their excited expressions, Gu Jingzhi smiled and said, "Don't worry! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is kind and cares about the people of the world. That's why His Majesty the Emperor entrusted this case to him!"
"When the case is heard, answer His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's questions truthfully, and don't worry about anything else!"
"sure!"
Zhou Yin and Lan Niang, mother and daughter, nodded repeatedly.
Gu Jingzhi just smiled when he heard that, and then said, "Let's go now! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still waiting at the Inner Guard House!"
……
Gu Jingzhi took a few servants with him and arranged a carriage to take Zhou Yin and others out of the mansion and headed straight towards the Inner Guard Palace.
Not long after, the car stopped at the gate of the Inner Guard Palace.
Gu Jingzhi jumped out of the car and shouted, "I am Gu Jingzhi, the Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple. I am hereby ordered by the Crown Prince to hand over all the witnesses and evidence..."
The guard at the door was shocked when he heard this.
Is this Gu Jingzhi?
They were about to step forward to greet him when they heard someone inside the door laugh loudly, "Haha! So it's Master Gu who's here. He's kept me waiting!"
"???"
Prince?
Gu Jingzhi was stunned. This guy is waiting for me at the door?
Gu Jing took two steps forward and saw two people appear at the door. They were Prince and...
When he saw the other person clearly, he was immediately confused.
Why is she there?
This woman is not a good person!
