Chapter 94
"What did you say? The plague was caused by the dead concubine Li? What did the emperor say?"

Gu Tu sprayed the tea and asked in disbelief.

It was so unexpected.Is it because the dead can't open their mouths to defend themselves?
Aren't you afraid that Concubine Li's coffin won't be able to hold it down and she will go back to the palace in the middle of the night to cause trouble?
Shaoyao wiped off the tea stains nimbly, and hummed softly.

"That's what people say outside. Concubine Li was born in Lijiang, where they use Gu poison, and they are always secretive. People are a little afraid, so it is easy to believe."

Gu Tu pressed his forehead, and there was no mouth.

"Okay, someone has to come out and take the blame."

Pushing it to a dead person, at least there is no need to find a scapegoat, the emperor does not have to issue an edict to blame himself, and the people have an outlet for their grievances, and there is no need to criticize the court. It can be said that everyone is happy.

I don't know how the Ninth Prince feels.

His mother died in vain, and he was cursed by the world, so he might go crazy.

Shao Yao poured her another cup of herbal tea and continued to talk about things in Beijing.

"Didn't Gu Qi have a rash on his face, and he said with certainty that he was framed by you, the master, and then went to Huarong Pavilion with great fanfare. He wanted to find an explanation, and made a fuss for several days."

"Shopkeeper Hua was concerned that she was your older sister, so he put up with it first. Later, it really got into trouble, and the reputation of the shop was going to be ruined. Shopkeeper Hua had no choice but to send a letter to the house."

"His Highness said that Gu Qi's rash had nothing to do with Huarong Pavilion. She was restless at home and flaunted everywhere. She was infected with the plague outside and wanted to blackmail us."

Shao Yao pursed her lips and smiled, gentle and amiable.

"His Royal Highness also said that Gu Qi knew that he had a visceral disease, but insisted on getting involved in the palace, and made the empress dowager and the prince mad about his illness.

"The Gu family has become honest all of a sudden, and they are all huddled at home. They dare not go out to make troubles, let alone get involved in Huarong Pavilion."

"Your Highness also said that in the face of the plague, everyone should live behind closed doors like our family, and go out less, so as not to get sick with each other and harm others and ourselves. He also asked to close the shop and donate a sum of money , and tide over the difficulties with the people of the court.”

Gu Tu blinked his eyes and nodded.

"Let's close the shop, anyway, business won't be good recently, just take a rest for a while; donating money is very appropriate, my mother is far-sighted, wise and wise, and I listen to my mother."

After Yaoyao finished flattering, Gu Tu asked gossipingly:

"I wanted to ask earlier, Gu Shu had a rash all over her face, how could she be called into the palace? How can the crown prince be able to chew on such an ugly face?"

According to her understanding, the prince is really not the master who would wrong him, and Gu Shu is not really a fairy, it doesn't make sense.

Shaoyao smiled implicitly and gently, and answered positively and directly:
"She is the favorite of the Ninth Prince."

Gu Tu understood in seconds!

The prince's heavy taste, tsk tsk.

Shao Yao didn't seem to say anything thought-provoking, cleared her throat, and imitated Gu Qi's tea talk.

"Shu'er inherited the court training from a young age, loyal to the court, filial to the elders, friendly to sisters, never violated the etiquette and law, let alone give and receive selflessly, gossip and gossip are all slander, and those who are clean are self-clear."

"I, Gu Shu, swear, I am not infected with the plague! The rash was framed by villains. Fortunately, the timely treatment did not cause any regrets. Do you have to ruin my appearance to believe my innocence? You It can't be so cruel!"

Every word and sentence is like weeping and complaining, like a zigui weeping blood, which draws people to tears!
Gu Tu looked at her in amazement.

If you don't look at her gentle and smiling face, you really think it's Gu Shu in person!
This ventriloquism is perfect!

No wonder the eldest princess called her to listen.

This is a piece of material that is naturally suitable for inquiring about news.

If she was locked up in the Princess Mansion with her eyes closed and listening, she would be called a waste of money.

"Hey, you have such a unique skill, have you ever done something bad? The kind of fake imperial decree?"

Gu Tu approached her and asked in a low voice.

Facing Shang Shaoyao's shy smiling face, Gu Tu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and blurted out:

"You were the one who caused Concubine Li to be haunted, right?"
