Her eyes were fierce, and there was a strong aura of hostility lingering around her, "You wanted to use my hand to kill Princess Zhaohua, so you set up this trap. I guessed it right!"

Shen Zhui trembled with fright, and he quickly raised his hands to beg for mercy, "County Lord, you have unjustly accused me to death. No one in the whole Kyoto knows that I am just a bastard who sleeps in flowers and willows all day long. How can you scheme against the County Lord?" My imperial concubine sister has been keeping people's eyes on Concubine Rou and her daughter, fearing that they would do something to me. I never thought that I would accidentally learn that Zhaohua, that poisonous woman, was going to do something evil to your brother and sister-in-law today. If not, I would rush over here. I’ve told you, it’s okay if you don’t thank me, but you still cast doubt on me, it’s true that Dou E didn’t even blame me!”

Gu Nanzhi stared at Shen Zhui intently. Seeing that he looked aggrieved but he was open-minded, she snorted coldly, "Mr. Shen, you'd better not lie to me."

Only then did she take back the broken porcelain pieces in her hand.

Shen Zhuirou rubbed his neck and said, "In order to prove my innocence, I will send someone to help you find the person."

Gu Nanzhi glanced away.

Shen Zhui immediately added: "Don't worry, I won't make it public, and I will never ruin your sister-in-law's reputation."

Thinking of the way Princess Zhaohua dealt with her last time, Gu Nanzhi wanted to rush into the palace and cut Princess Zhaohua alive, but the top priority was to find her sister-in-law first.

My brother is still the best at this kind of thing.

She coldly rejected Shen Zhui's kindness, "No need." Who knew what he had in mind.

She told Shuang Jiang to go home immediately, summoned everyone in the house, and said she would capture the escaped slaves in the house, secretly search for the Wen family, and then kicked Shen Zhui down.

Shen Zhui groaned dissatisfied: "We haven't even crossed the river yet! Just tear down the bridge. Don't expect me to inform you next time."

Gu Nazhi took only the coachman and Bai Lu with him and planned to go to the Criminal Department to find his brother.

"What happened to Zhizhi?" Unexpectedly, Gu Nanshan caught up with him on horseback.

Gu Nanzhi gave him a look and motioned for him to get on the carriage first.

When Gu Nanshan saw her serious expression, he quickly dismounted and lifted his legs to get into the carriage.

"Brother, my sister-in-law is missing." Gu Nanzhi said with red eyes.

"What did you say?" Gu Nanshan's voice suddenly rose, and his handsome face suddenly seemed frozen, braving the cold air. He wondered in his heart that Aya had the most gentle temperament and was always kind to others. Who would do anything to her?

Gu Nanzhi still didn't believe Shen Zhui. She raised her eyes and asked, "Brother, did Princess Zhaohua just send someone to summon you to the palace?"

Gu Nanshan nodded, "That's what happened. She asked someone to send a message, saying that she lost a luminous pearl that was a tribute from another country last night. It was priceless. She asked me to take people from the Ministry of Punishment into the palace to help her find it. Fortunately, you When the people came, I made an excuse and was able to get away."

Gu Nanzhi's heart suddenly hit rock bottom.

"Brother, Princess Zhaohua has evil thoughts towards you. She wants to trick you into the palace, and then...she also asked someone to kidnap her sister-in-law."

Gu Nanshan's whole body was filled with coldness, and his eyes were cold and scary, "It's her, Princess Zhaohua..."

She tried to take Zhizhi's life several times, but before he could find a chance to take revenge, he didn't expect that she would dare to take action against Aya.

The ferocious murderous intent surged in his eyes, like thick black clouds. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will go into the palace to find Princess Zhaohua right now."

"Brother, calm down. This is just our speculation without any evidence. What can you do if you enter the palace and see her? Rescue your sister-in-law first, and I will settle this account with her clearly." Gu Nan Zhi sneered, saying it was hard to persuade the damn ghost, since Princess Zhaohua touched her reverse scale, she would definitely take her life this time.

"I have already ordered Shuang Jiang to take the people in the mansion to find my sister-in-law. You should go back to the Ministry of Justice immediately and take the people from the Ministry of Justice to look for my sister-in-law. Remember, you are looking for the escaped slaves in our mansion." She shook Gu Nanshan's hand hard. , "I'm worried that Princess Zhaohua will bring her sister-in-law into the palace. It's inconvenient for us to find her in the palace. I'm going to find Mr. Chen for help."

The brother and sister separated in a hurry.

Secretly, the Moon Shadow Guards were also helping her find the person, using almost all of Xie Ni's forces.

Chen Ke was still recovering from his injury in the mansion. When he heard that Gu Nanzhi was coming, he sat up from the couch in shock. He didn't even put on any shoes. He hurried to the door with bare feet. Only then did he realize that he had gone back to put on his shoes. good.

This is the future grandmother, how dare he neglect her?

Someone has been asked to invite Gu Nanzhi to the front hall to entertain him.

"Please forgive me for coming here rashly." Chen Ke came very quickly, with beads of sweat on his forehead. Seeing Gu Nanzhi stand up and salute him, he was so frightened that he immediately avoided it, "Huayang County Master, you must not do this. If you have anything to do, just tell your subordinates directly."

Gu Nanzhi hurriedly expressed his intention.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ke said, "Please don't worry, County Lord. My subordinates will enter the palace immediately. As soon as there is news, I will ask someone to inform the County Lord."

Gu Nanzhi was not idle either. She followed Bai Lu and looked for Wen everywhere.

until night falls.

Gu Nanzhi has returned to the house. Her brother doesn't believe her, and Chen Ke doesn't believe her either. She is restless. It will be difficult to find someone once night falls.

Zhaoyang Hall, the side hall, is brightly lit at the moment.

Princess Zhaohua looked gloomy, lying on the imperial concubine's couch. A maidservant knelt at her feet and was tremblingly squeezing her feet. She closed her eyes and rested her mind. Her father and her brother refused to help her, and even her brother refused to help her. Her mother and concubine told her not to have such wishful thinking.

Therefore, she could only do it by herself.

For a moment, she lazily raised her eyelids, glanced at the hourglass next to her, and said casually: "Send someone to ask Mr. Gu again. This time, he will definitely come."
