Chapter 125: A conversation between the father-in-law and son-in-law! Song Pu is fed up!
"Solve it? How do we solve it? Do we have to rush into the Inner Guards' prison and kill people?"
Song Pu gave Gu Heng a displeased look.
The reason why he wanted to use the power of the Ministry of Justice to bring people to the court was that he planned to use some means to silence them.
But Gu Jingzhi directly refused on the grounds that Zhao Zhongli's guilt had already been established and a verdict could be made without any evidence. He really had no other choice.
As for the attack on the diplomatic mission, the Internal Security Bureau is actually more suitable than the Ministry of Justice.
"Father-in-law, we have ways to deal with Zhao Zhongli, but that other guy... he must die!"
It's no wonder that Song Pu's words really touched Gu Heng's heart. He really planned to send someone to the Inner Guard Prison to kill someone, since the prisoner was seriously injured and dying anyway.
Compared to Zhao Zhongli, he was more afraid of the prisoner waking up.
After all, if it was just Zhao Zhongli who pointed the finger, he could easily claim it was a grudge between the two of them from twenty years ago. As long as Zhao Zhongli didn't have any evidence to prove it, he wouldn't necessarily be convicted.
As for whether the things were there, he couldn't guarantee it.
However, since Zhao Zhongli's family members were also here, he naturally had a way to make Zhao Zhongli shut up.
But the surviving private soldier was different. As long as he could speak, it was a foregone conclusion that the Internal Security would investigate him.
Once his crime of raising private soldiers is proven, no one can protect him.
Song Pu asked with a dark face, "Isn't that your private soldier? Could he betray you? Since you have a way to deal with Zhao Zhongli, can't the same method be used to deal with a small soldier?"
He knew about the private soldiers under Gu Heng's command. After the two families got married, Gu Heng's private soldiers helped him do some dirty work, so he knew quite a lot about this private soldier.
After Gu Heng surrendered to Daxia, he was afraid that his private soldiers would be discovered, so usually these private soldiers were hidden in the market.
Although this led to a decline in the combat effectiveness of this private army, with the weakness of his family, Gu Heng's control over this private army became increasingly powerful.
For some people, their father dies and their son takes his place.
If you ask Gu Heng if he has a way to make the soldier shut up, the answer is of course yes, but he said with a sad face: "Father-in-law, there is a way, but we are not sure who was brought back yet!"
"..."
Song Pu was speechless.
This son-in-law is really troublesome. He does things without considering the consequences. It's just a matter of reputation, so why does he use his private soldiers?
it's good now.
There is no way around it, a bigger handle on me might fall into the hands of others!
He thought for a moment and said, "Didn't you say earlier that Zhu'er had already done everything he could to the end? Could it be that Gu Jingzhi was deliberately creating confusion, and that there really wasn't such a person?"
"Uh……"
Gu Heng was stunned for a moment, then said in surprise, "Father-in-law, do you mean that the little bastard did it on purpose?"
Song Pu shook his head slightly. "This boy is very cunning and meticulous in his work. He is good at taking advantage of every available opportunity. Recently, even I have been repeatedly frustrated in the court with the support of His Majesty..."
"It is very likely that he did this on purpose!"
"This……"
It's not impossible.
only……
He asked, "Father-in-law, could it be that the beast has already suspected me?"
"That should be impossible!"
Song Pu shook his head and said, "Even if they didn't suspect you, I'm afraid they would have guessed it was a force within the capital!"
"Then we must not let that person wake up! Father-in-law..."
Gu Heng said anxiously: "But whether this person really exists or not, we can't gamble!"
"How could I not know the truth?"
Song Pu glared at him, "Who told you to do such a thing? Wouldn't it be better to just let him fend for himself in your house? You treated him poorly, but why did you let Xiu'er try to steal his fame?"
No wonder Song Pu was disappointed.
Since Gu Jingzhi's life could not be taken, why did he have to target him so much? To the point where he was in such a passive position now.
A person who can pass the imperial examination by staying at home and studying...and finally become the top scorer, can he not be a person who studies hard for nothing?
Gu Jingzhi knew nothing about his own life experience. If Gu Heng had treated him well, why would he have turned against him like he did today?
Gu Heng immediately became unhappy when he heard Song Pu's words. Isn't this all Song Yu's fault? If she hadn't been constantly dealing with Gu Jingzhi, how could the current situation have come about?
The death of Gu Jingzhi's biological mother... was to make way for Song Yu, and was also caused by the wishes of the Song family.
But Gu Jingzhi...
Although he didn't like it, he thought that as long as he didn't die, it would be fine.
But Song Yu seemed to think of Gu Jingzhi's biological mother whenever he saw him, so he would beat and scold him at every turn. Over time, his other two sons also followed suit.
He couldn't let Gu Jingzhi harm Song Yu, which would lead to a vicious cycle.
But it was too late to say anything now. He couldn't just put all the blame on Song Yu in front of Song Pu, right?
"Father-in-law, it's too late to say anything. Wu Song serves under Li Sheng. He and Gu Jingzhi may have known each other for a long time. If he knew that I was not his biological father, I'm afraid he would have no scruples!"
Looking at Gu Heng who was talking in a muffled voice, Song Pu's expression eased a little. He also knew his daughter's personality and thought that this matter had something to do with his daughter.
Now, just as Gu Heng said, if Gu Jingzhi knew that Gu Heng was not his biological father, he would probably no longer care about anything else.
He thought for a moment and said, "The Inner Guard House isn't an airtight place. I'll have someone help you with this!"
"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, father-in-law."
Upon hearing this, Gu Heng's expression of joy was immediately evident. However, he was not satisfied with this and asked, "What about Zhao Zhongli?"
"what are you thinking?"
Song Pu cursed, "It's easy to kill someone who's already struggling to survive, but Zhao Zhongli is fine. If he died in the Inner Guard prison, wouldn't His Majesty order a thorough investigation?"
This son-in-law is really getting more and more unreasonable.
Killing a person who is already seriously injured and dying does not need to attract other people's attention. Even if the internal security guards suspect that it is homicide, as long as it is done secretly, no trace will be left at all.
But Zhao Zhongli is different.
He was a veteran of the battlefield, and although he was already old, the hardships he endured along the way didn't kill him. Instead, he died in prison...
Two key figures died at once, and people would start to say that there was something fishy going on even if there was nothing fishy going on.
He said gloomily, "You don't have to worry about Zhao Zhongli. Zhuer was originally going after him. Gu Jingzhi must have seen it. Since he saw it, there's no way he wouldn't interrogate him all the way back to Beijing!"
"However, Gu Jingzhi did not speak of this matter in the court today, which means he did not ask anything! Otherwise, you would not be in my house right now, but in the inner guard's prison!"
"Since Zhao Zhongli hasn't said anything, it means he's either pinning his hopes on you, or he doesn't have any evidence to incriminate you!"
After hearing this analysis, Gu Heng heaved a sigh of relief. He said, "Then I'll ask my father-in-law to have someone tell him not to say anything he shouldn't!"
"What do you want me to say?"
Song Pu waved his hand impatiently!
