Dressed As a Consort In Ancient Times

When the atmosphere suddenly reached freezing point, the leader threw out a warrant for arrest, "There is an order from above to take the seventh son-in-law to the Ministry of Punishment for custody."

What? !

Jiang Libai and Gu Yun looked at each other, feeling that this was ridiculous.

Now Gu Yun is not only her son-in-law, but also the commander-in-chief of the Five Cities Military Division. He holds an important position, so how could he be taken away so vaguely?

"Who gave the order? Why did you arrest my son-in-law?!" Jiang Libai held Gu Yun's hand tightly, with a sullen face, and asked these people sternly.

"We are only following orders, and please don't make things difficult for us. As for the reason for arresting the seventh son-in-law...we don't know very well."

As soon as Jiang Libai raised her hand, the man respectfully handed the warrant into her hand.

After spreading it out, she glanced at ten lines, and stared at the seal of the Ministry of Punishment below for a careful study.

As her face became more and more ugly, her heartbeat accelerated a lot.

It's all true, it's actually true to take Gu Yun away.

Gu Yun looked back at the Seventh Princess who looked a little uneasy, and said softly: "Princess, since there is a warrant, I will go with them."

At this time, Gu Yun already had some vague guesses in his heart.

She turned around and hugged Princess Seven, as if saying goodbye to her.

Then she lowered her voice and whispered in Jiang Libai's ear: "Princess, do you still remember what I told you last night? Maybe Fang Zhan is not trustworthy."

The two have been together day and night for almost a year, and when Jiang Libai heard her words, she immediately understood what she meant.

She tightly hugged Gu Yun's thin waist, and promised softly: "I will rescue you."

After the two explained the follow-up matters in a low voice, Gu Yun let go of her, gave her a gentle smile, and left with those people.

The thin figure walked into the dawn light, and disappeared around the corner after a while.

"Princess, this..." Chunxi didn't understand what happened, but felt that those who swaggered and took away the son-in-law were very hateful, and they didn't give them face to the Princess House!

Jiang Libai took a deep breath, pursed her lips, "Go and tell Mu Paddle to find out what happened to the arson incident."

She was really sleepy last night, and she didn't gossip with Gu Yun properly, and she didn't understand the progress of things these days.

So now that Gu Yun was suddenly taken away, she also felt very strange.

After receiving the order, Chunxi looked at Princess Seven's face and asked anxiously, "Princess, shall we enter the palace?"

"Of course we have to go." Jiang Libai left as soon as he said that, "Put the princess in my arms, and we will go to Changchun Palace to find my mother and concubine."

Her eyes are dark now, and she can only roughly guess that Gu Yun was taken away, probably because of the arson incident before.

But what is going on, she has to ask her mother and concubine, if she knows the reason, she can immediately ask her mother and concubine to do something for her.

The Princess Mansion is already busy here, while Gu Yun was taken away there, but there is silence.

Coming to the very familiar Ministry of Punishment again, Gu Yun met the long-awaited Minister of Punishment Li Chongxian.

Probably because he was frightened by the aura of the Seventh Princess last time, before things became clear at this moment, Li Chong was still polite to Gu Yun who came here.

Looking at the tall and tall figure, he didn't beat around the bush and asked directly: "Seventh son-in-law, I must have brought you here today, so you must have some concerns? In order to settle this matter as soon as possible, please ask the son-in-law to take you here today." Where did you go after you left the duty yesterday, and explain it clearly to the official."

yesterday? After downloading the value? ? ?

Together with Fang Zhan, she went to the prison of Bingmasi in Wucheng to interrogate the captured Yunguo man!

For some reason, Gu Yun felt something unusual in his heart.

She slowly opened her mouth: "As soon as I was on duty yesterday, my deputy commander Fang Zhan came to tell me that the arsonist a few days ago had been caught. Because of the urgency of the matter, I went with him to the dark prison , interrogated that Yun countryman."

Hearing this, there was a moment of silence all around.

Li Chong frowned and stroked his beard: "Arson

man of? Hasn't this matter been handed over to our Criminal Ministry and Dali Temple? Now that the man was caught, why didn't the son-in-law send someone to inform us? And what was the result of your interrogation? Why was it not reported? "

A series of questions were thrown out, and Gu Yun's heart fell into the abyss completely.

What Li Chongxian meant was that last night their people were not notified by the Wucheng Bingmasi. They didn't know that she was going to interrogate the Yunguo man who set the fire yesterday...?

Gu Yun thought about all the incidents last night, and felt more and more that maybe the incidents last night were aimed at her.

People from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple wanted to invite the greatest credit, and why did the five city soldiers and horses come to preside over the trial.

Those words were probably Fang Zhan's words to trick her.

Gu Yun thought of all the things before, and it was hard for her to believe that such a glamorous person would really harm her.

"The people in the Ministry of Punishments and Dali Temple were not notified because Fang Zhan said that you decided to let Wucheng soldiers and horses preside over the trial."

"The man's mouth is too tight, so the interrogation has no results for the time being."

"I was planning to re-trial for another night, and today I prepared a report to submit, but before I did it, I was caught here by your people."

Although Gu Yun gave up on Fang Zhan, she still answered Li Chongxian's questions one by one.

Seeing her solemn expression, Li Zhongxian frowned a little, probably because she spoke clearly and clearly.

"It seems that in order to clear the suspicion of you, the son-in-law, you have to invite Fang Zhan, the deputy commander."

Li Chong first waved to the people below: "Go and invite someone."

"Suspicious?" Gu Yun looked indifferent, without any sense of panic, "I don't know what I have to do with it?"

Li Zhong didn't hold back, and said bluntly: "Yesterday, people from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple have caught the real arsonist... that person is not from Yun, but from Jin."

Gu Yun's eyes were deep, "Jin people?!"

That's why they arrested her?

Because both the arsonist and Yuanshen are from the Jin Kingdom? !

"Following the man's instructions, we have already investigated and dealt with the den set up by the State of Jin in Beijing, and there... there are traces left by you, son-in-law."

"So you suspect me?" Gu Yun thought it was extremely absurd. What is "a real arsonist"? What do you mean there are traces of her in the den?

Who is going to target her like this? !

The grass on the second prince Jiang Shen's grave is several feet high, so he wouldn't turn into a ghost and plan to frame her, right?

…

Time passed bit by bit, and during the inquiry, Fang Zhan, the deputy commander, arrived late.

As soon as he came, Li Chong first briefly explained the current situation to him, and after he understood it, he asked him: "... What the son-in-law means is that she went to the dark place with you after she left the duty last night. Interrogate the so-called arsonist."

"I don't know, maybe you can prove it for the son-in-law?"

Fang Zhan stood beside Gu Yun, and since he heard Li Chongxian's words, he kept his head down.

Now when asked if he could testify, he didn't raise his head, "Returning to your lord, I... can't prove it."

Before the words fell, Gu Yun looked at him calmly.

"I was off duty yesterday, and because I had to deal with official duties, I stayed in the command department until dark before returning home. During this period, I didn't go anywhere, let alone see the commander-in-chief."

So, Gu Yun closed his eyes.

Fang Zhan, he... so there is really a problem.

Li Chong first looked at Gu Yun's tightly closed eyes, and asked Fang Zhan again: "So, you don't know that the son-in-law said that the people from Wucheng Bingmasi caught the so-called arsonist? You didn't talk to her either. Go to the interrogation together?"

"Yes." Fang Zhan's voice was no longer as clear and natural as before, "The matter of tracking down the arsonist has already been handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple, and our Wucheng soldiers and horses are only assisting from the side. Catch someone before you."

"Even if someone is really caught, you should be notified as soon as possible, and you won't be interrogated in private."

Hearing this, Gu Yun was stunned.

Twitching the corners of his mouth, he wanted to laugh out loud.

It turns out that Fang Zhan's remarks last night had a one-to-one correspondence!

She just said, why did she catch someone but didn't send them to the Ministry of Punishment, why is she waiting here for her? !

"How can you prove that you are telling the truth?" Li Chong asked first.

At this time, Fang Zhan raised his head slowly, and replied in a low and calm voice: "The rest of the soldiers and horses of the five cities can testify."

…

When the sun was shining, Jiang Libai hastily walked into Changchun Palace with her skirt in hand.

At that time, Concubine Yuan Gui had just finished her breakfast and was rinsing her mouth when she heard eager footsteps outside the door.

Following the voice of the little palace maid, she realized that it was her Jianing who had arrived.

Seeing her daughter's figure, she raised her eyebrows and looked: "Where is Little Xingxing? Didn't you enter the palace with you today?"

"She just fell asleep, and Erchen asked the nanny to carry her to the side hall." Jiang Libai bowed to her and went straight to the topic: "Mother and Concubine, people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple went to our house early this morning. , and took Gu Yun away with a warrant!"

"Mother, do you know what's going on?"

Hearing this, Concubine Yuan Gui was also very surprised: "What did you say? Your son-in-law was taken away by people from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple?!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Libai understood that her mother and concubine didn't know much about this matter.

Her heart gradually sank into the abyss, "Yes, but I don't know what it was for, probably... probably because of the arson in Beijing a few days ago?"

Concubine Yuan Gui thought for a while, and first comforted Jiang Libai who was obviously very anxious: "Don't worry, just take him away for a question, maybe I will let him go back at night."

"But... Hasn't the matter of arson been handed over to the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple? Why is your son-in-law involved? Could it be... that the arsonist has something to do with her?"

Apart from this reason, Concubine Yuan Gui couldn't think of any other reasons for the time being.

But seeing her, Jianing was so anxious that she was about to cry, and she knew that she would not be able to ask her anything at this moment.

So before she could answer, she stood up and straightened her dress, "You wait here first, I'll go to Qianming Palace to meet your father and ask what's going on."

With what the concubine mother said, Jiang Libai breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mother and concubine, son-in-law, let's go with you!"

Concubine Yuan Gui shook her head: "You are very anxious now, if you say something at that time to make your father unhappy, it will be bad. Besides, Xing Xing is still sleeping in the side hall, so you have to take care of her here .”

Concubine Yuan Gui patted her on the head: "Wait well, Concubine Mother will be back in a while."
