The villain of Xianwu world

Chapter 155 Gu Xiao's Threat to the Emperor
"Your Majesty, my minister dares to guarantee the head of the item. The Dongfang Hou I met in Miaozhou must be a real person!" Liu Changying knelt in front of the emperor and assured him loudly.

Beside him, there are Zhang Shaomin and Tie Shou, the imperial envoys selected by the emperor to patrol the eight prefectures.

At this time, the three of them looked at Dongfang Hou who was standing in front of the emperor with unswerving expressions.

Contrary to their unswerving expressions, under Gu Xiao's close protection, Dongfang Hou's face was full of happiness.

These people really couldn't help being angry.

This time their trip to Miaozhou was really a complete failure.

Right under their noses, Dongfang Hou was rescued, and then all the evidence that could be used to correct Dongfang Hou was destroyed. The person who was locked in the prison was a dead man, and he took all the charges. After he got down, he couldn't find the slightest flaw of Dongfanghou from the obvious.

The worst thing was that Eunuch Feng, who was also an imperial envoy, was knocked down by them.

In a word, they went to Miaozhou this time, but they didn't find half of the corrupt officials they wanted to catch, and even knocked down a companion, although none of them really thought that there was nothing but gold in their minds. The dead eunuch with nothing left was really his companion, but he still felt very ashamed.

Therefore, when he came back, Liu Changying, who was the most irritable and impulsive, couldn't help attacking Dongfang Hou who was beside the emperor.

Dongfang Hou smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I have been staying in the capital these days, and I have never been to Miaozhou!"

"Master Hou, you know in your heart whether you have been to Miaozhou or not." Zhang Shaomin sarcastically said.

"Bastard!" Dongfang Hou changed color suddenly.

"Thirteenth brother!" Seeing Dongfanghou's anger, the emperor hurriedly stopped him.

"Your Majesty!" Dongfanghou bowed to the emperor, his face still not looking good.

Gu Xiao stood behind Dongfang Hou and said nothing.

He really knew the emperor very well. Although the emperor was good at manipulating power, he inevitably had a weakness, which was soft-heartedness.

In fact, the emperor is not unaware that his three brothers, Marquis Tiedan, Prince Qing, and Marquis Dongfang, are all staring at his dragon chair. Even Gu Xiao has always guessed that his uncle the emperor, Not only did he know that the little prince was the illegitimate son of his cheap old man and Concubine Ju, but he also knew that Marquis Tie Dan was the real culprit who had bloodbathed the eight sects back then.It's just that he knew it was the same thing in his heart, but he couldn't stop killing his younger brother.

Otherwise, Prince Qing would not have just had his legs cut off and driven out of the Central Plains after he failed in his rebellion.

And the soft spot of the emperor's kindness is exactly what Gu Xiao can take advantage of.

Gu Xiao could tell that the emperor was a little moved now, and he didn't want to openly tear himself apart with his cheap father. After all, wouldn't it be nice to leave a reputation of killing his younger brother in the history books?
"Your Majesty, these three people blatantly slandered my father, claiming that my father was plotting rebellion, and asked the emperor to be the master of my father." Gu Xiao stepped forward and said loudly.

When the emperor saw Gu Xiao approaching and claiming that these three people had slandered his father, he immediately became embarrassed.

To be honest, the emperor knew in his heart that the person who was arrested in Miaozhou was indeed his thirteenth brother, but now that there was no real evidence, he himself thought that this matter should just go away.Now, these three ignorant young people are still reluctant to let go, which immediately makes the emperor a little dissatisfied.

As soon as Gu Xiao showed up like this again, he immediately put the emperor in a difficult position.

"Dongfang Sheng, you're spitting blood!" Tie Shou, who had been silent all this time, said angrily. Liu Changying and Zhang Shaomin also glared at Gu Xiao.

They really didn't expect there to be such a thick-skinned person in this world. It was their own father who conspired to rebel, but now they still have the face to beat them back, and immediately made these three people who are definitely not good-tempered very angry.

Liu Changying, who has the most impulsive temper, clenched his fists subconsciously, wishing to blow Gu Xiao's head off with one punch.

Gu Xiao didn't even look at these three people, just stood in front of the emperor, looked directly at the emperor, and put on a gesture of "you have to explain to our father and son".

The emperor looked at the four young men in front of him, and suddenly felt a little dizzy.

Although he knows the right and wrong of the matter in his heart, but now there is no conclusive and credible evidence, he has nothing to do with Dongfang Hou and his son. Instead, it is the other three young people who make him worry. There was no way out, which really made him at a loss as to what to do.

"Your Majesty, Dongfang Sheng is spitting blood, I have evidence here to prove that Dongfang Hou did appear in Miaozhou some time ago, and he is the biggest culprit in this treason case!" Tie Shou gritted his teeth and shouted.

Gu Xiao turned around, looked at them, and said, "Is there evidence? Why don't you show it?"

When he said this, Gu Xiao's tone was very firm. Didn't he know if they had any evidence?
All the evidence that could pose a threat to his cheap old man Dongfanghou has been destroyed by him now, so how can they still produce evidence now.

The three of them were speechless for a while, unable to take out anything.

Indeed, just like what Gu Xiao said, they can now prove that the evidence of Dongfang Hou's conspiracy has been destroyed, and there is not even a single letter between Feng Gonggong and Dongfang Hou. How can they get anything else? Evidence comes.

Gu Xiao had no way out to run them away, turned to look at the emperor, and reported loudly: "My Majesty, I have some evidence here to prove my father's innocence!"

While speaking, Gu Xiao had already taken out a small wooden box that was locked and presented it.

Under the emperor's signal, Cao Zhengchun came forward and took the small wooden box from Gu Xiao's hand.

"Is the injury on your hand healed?" When Cao Zhengchun took the wooden box from his hand, Gu Xiao said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

How did he know that my hand was hurt?When Cao Zhengchun heard this, he was shocked.

"Come here, drag Zhang Shaomin, Liu Changying, and Tie Youxia (Tie Shou) down, each with thirty sticks!" When the emperor saw the contents of the wooden box, his face was cloudy and cloudy. ordered loudly.However, Gu Xiao could clearly hear the gnashing of teeth in his voice.

It's done!Gu Xiao couldn't restrain the ecstasy in his heart.

He knew that the life of his cheap Lao Tzu was saved, because what he sent up was nothing but the documents and secret edicts issued by the emperor to Heishi!
