After the powerful minister was reborn, he married the delicate girl back home

Xiao Ziqi wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of investigating the case to get closer to Zhou Yuzhao. How could Gu Xingmo not understand his thoughts? I would be happy to help them.

Thinking about the two of them in the last life, one died alone in the temple, the other vomited blood and died with regrets for the rest of his life, alas...

Things in the world are unpredictable, I hope they can have a good ending in this life!

Xiao Ziqi and Zhou Yuzhao grew up together and were childhood sweethearts. Even if they deliberately don't think about it, it's hard to stop the familiarity with each other that has long been imprinted in their bones.

The look in his eyes when he looked at her was the same as before, as gentle as a pool of spring water, calm and calm, the only one that could make ripples was her, as if so many things had never happened between them, and so many years had never passed...

But that's obviously not the case. There is no possibility between them anymore. She even has a daughter and son-in-law.

Zhou Yuzhao didn't like this feeling very much, but she had always had an idea. When facing Xiao Ziqi, she had no choice but to devote herself to this corruption case.

Hurry up and deal with the Cui family, hurry up and part ways with Xiao Ziqi, and never disturb each other in this life.

Cui Yutao has a cautious character. In addition, he has been deeply involved in the court for many years, and the forces behind him are complicated. Although it is not easy to move him, but with the tips that Li Jiaorong accidentally obtained, the crimes above are not false, so he helps them Saved a lot of trouble.

The compiled documents were presented to the emperor. Even though he knew about it in advance, the emperor was still furious. He had Cui Yutao's power taken away on the spot, put him in jail, ransacked his home and set a date for execution.

After that, the vitality of the Cui clan was severely damaged, and all the children in the clan, regardless of their bloodline, were implicated. They were exiled and executed, leaving only a few immature children who could not remember anything. It would be difficult to cause big troubles in the future.

After seeing the fall of Cui Yutao, the Chen family in the far south of the Yangtze River could no longer sit still. For fear of being implicated by the Cui family, the head of the Chen family rushed to the capital overnight, and with him came most of the money that the ancestors had worked hard to save. Net worth, Chen is willing to donate all that money to the national treasury.

There are only two things he wants: one is that the Chen family is innocent and the Holy Spirit is not to be blamed; the other is that the Cui family be spared.

At that time, the Holy Emperor, the eldest princess, the general and Gu Xingmo were all present. As soon as the head of the Chen family finished speaking, there was a brief silence around them.

I thought that everything had been settled and all we had to do was wait for the evildoers to pay the price. I never thought that the Chen family would be willing to sacrifice so much just to exchange for Cui Chuochuan's life.

Gu Xingmo's heart couldn't help but feel high, but he suddenly fell from the sky, as if he had fallen to the bottom of a valley, as if he had already known what this group of people would choose, as if the answer had already been revealed.

So much money was given in vain, but the condition was only to spare one life. Even if this person was worse than a beast and his hands were stained with the blood of many people, he could still be saved because the interests of those in power had not been touched yet.

Oh, he should understand!

Just like in the previous life, Cui Chuancuan didn't force him to marry her, didn't force Rong Niang to be his concubine, didn't kill their child while he was away from home...

If it hadn't been for this, maybe he would have the same idea as the other people present.

Look, what a worthwhile deal this is!

No matter how much he thought in his mind, his face still showed nothing. He stood up straight and respectfully waited for the Holy One to speak.

Zhou Yin did not answer directly, but glanced around the people present, and finally fixed his eyes on Xiao Ziqi, and spoke in a deep voice: "General, you are the presiding judge of Cui Yutao's corruption case. In your opinion, what should be done? ?”

After knowing each other for so many years, Xiao Ziqi naturally knew what he wanted to hear now, and immediately continued obediently:

"The Holy One is benevolent. In my opinion, it is not a bad idea to keep Cui's daughter alive. However, when I first returned to the capital, I heard a lot of rumors about Cui's daughter. So I let her go like this. I'm afraid the people will not accept it."

Hearing this, the head of the Chen family did not care about offending Long Yan and quickly answered:

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Don't worry, General. The common people will send her to Zhuangzi to keep her under strict supervision. She will never let her run out to cause trouble again. I only ask the Holy One to spare her life. The sister of a compatriot of the same mother is left like this." How can ordinary people part with a bloodline?"

Perhaps he was really sad. This big man in his forties couldn't help but wipe away his tears. His beautiful beard twitched, looking pitiful and funny.

Zhou Yin sighed, and when he was about to say something, Gu Xingmo spoke: "Your Majesty, I have a way."

"From what I see, Cui's daughter has been punished to death and cannot be spared!"

Seeing that Gu Xingmo was about to come out to stop him, the head of the Chen family was angry and impatient. He was about to retort when he heard Gu Xingmo say: "But the head of the Chen family has a sincere heart and is willing to use most of his wealth to atone for Cui's daughter's sins. This is touching. , can’t be wasted.”

After saying this, the head of the Chen family was confused, and for a moment he didn't even know whether this person was an enemy or a friend.

Does he want Cui Chuanchuan to die or live?

This time, not only the head of the Chen family was confused, but even Zhou Yin, who was in a high position, couldn't help but frown.

At this time, Zhou Yuzhao, who had been sitting silently for a long time, slowly spoke: "Son-in-law, if you have any ideas, feel free to speak out."

She knew that Gu Xingmo had always had an idea, not to mention that he was her own son-in-law, so naturally he had to go to him!

But what she said made Xiao Ziqi and Zhou Yin feel uncomfortable.

On the one hand, Zhou Yin was worried that Gu Xingmo would ruin this rare opportunity, but on the other hand, he was a little disappointed. Why didn't Sister A look towards him this time?

Xiao Ziqi was frightened. He didn't expect that A Zhao would side with Gu Xingmo instead of his brother's brother.

Son-in-law? Is it because of the adopted daughter?

It seems that he underestimated the couple, but he can win people's hearts and coax A Zhao into facing them like this.

Xiao Ziqi's eyes darkened, and he had an idea in his mind. After this matter was over, he would go to Gu Xingmo's house to sit down and talk about the young couple, so that they would be less careful.

After Zhou Yuzhao's statement, Gu Xingmo thought for a moment and then said: "I think Cui Chuanchuo must die."

"What I mean is that the daughter of the Cui family must die."

"In my opinion, a death row prisoner can be found to replace Cui's daughter in the Tianlao. This will not easily arouse public anger, but also fulfill the Chen family's wish for Chicheng."

Zhou Yin thought for a while, "But, what you said is absolutely true."

Seeing that the results were as expected, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

After that, the head of the Chen family said a few more words of thanks as usual, left his things and was about to leave. Gu Xingmo seemed to suddenly remember something, and said: "But according to Cui's daughter's temperament, I'm afraid there will be trouble again in the future. I feel She should be given a bottle of mute medicine to prevent future troubles."

"Yes." Zhou Yin was the first to agree before the head of the Chen family could plead. He didn't want to waste too much time on a small matter.

Seeing that the matter was certain, and he had lost half of his family wealth in exchange for a mute Cui Chuachuan, the head of the Chen family felt bitter, but he also knew that it would be difficult to save her life, so he had no choice but to accept it.

The happiest person about this deal is Zhou Yin. Now that the treasury is full, his children will have less trouble after taking power.

Although he failed to take Cui Chuanchuo's life this time, Gu Xingmo felt regretful, but then he thought about it, sometimes life is more difficult than death, and the future is long, isn't it?
