Master Liu wiped off his cold sweat, and hurriedly walked to the back hall.

..........

Princess Guantao led a group of people and was standing outside a courtyard gate.

Not long after, the courtyard door opened, and a middle-aged man in white came out.

Princess Guantao frowned slightly, and someone beside her immediately greeted her.

"Back to the princess, Wu Zuo said that the cause of death was a severe blow to the chest."

"Are there any other questions?"

The man was taken aback, and hurried back to ask again.

He came back quickly and said, "Wu Zuo also said that he was a little unsure..."

"What is not confirmed?"

Princess Guantao frowned and said, "Call him over, and I will inquire personally."

"Princess, no, that person just had contact with a dead person, it's ominous."

"Don't talk nonsense, call him over quickly."

Wu Zuo, surnamed Zhao, immediately walked over quickly after receiving the summoning order.

"Humble duty to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Princess Guantao asked, "What didn't you confirm just now?"

Zhao Wuzuo said in a deep voice: "According to my observation, Wang Er has two serious injuries on his body, one fatal and the other not fatal. Among them, the heavy blow to the chest was the main cause of Wang Er's death."

"Where is the other place?"

"Waist side."

Princess Guantao pondered: "Then can the time of the two injuries be the same?"

Wu Zuo hurriedly said: "The humble job is incompetent, so I can't find out."

Princess Guantao took two steps and said casually, "What about the approximate time?"

Zhao Wuzuo hesitated for a while, and said: "The injury on the waist should be from the front, and the injury on the chest should be from the back."

"How long is the injury distance?"

Zhao Wuzuo shook his head, "Not sure."

"Is there anything that can be found out?"

"No...no."

Princess Guantao frowned, looking at Zhao Wuzuo with displeasure.

Zhao Wuzuo's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he didn't know what he said was wrong.

After an unknown amount of time, Princess Guantao turned around and left.

The crowd quickly followed.

Randomly entered a room, Princess Guantao sat down and winked at a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man hurriedly repelled the others.

"Princess, they are all out."

Princess Guantao pondered for a while, and said, "Qiao Feng, you are very skilled in martial arts, can you tell the time before and after the injury?"

"It can be seen in general, but if the time is too close or too far away, it is generally difficult to distinguish clearly."

"is it?"

Princess Guantao said indifferently: "If I must let him distinguish clearly?"

Qiao Feng lifted his spirits and said, "This subordinate knows how to do it."

Princess Guantao glanced at him approvingly, and said with a smile, "Be careful with things, don't let others catch you."

"Princess, don't worry, my subordinates must do a good job."

Princess Guantao nodded and said, "I'll give you an hour, and then I'll go to the yamen."

.........

Gu Bao was locked up again, and not long after, Master Liu walked in alone.

Gu Bao was eating cold food, felt the light was blocked by someone, looked up, couldn't help laughing and said: "Hehe, isn't this Master Liu? Why come here to play when you have time."

Mr. Liu's elegant face was slightly red, he waved his hand, "You all go out, don't come near without my order."

After the people left, Lord Liu frowned and said, "Gu Bao, how do you know about me?"

Gu Bao put the food aside, raised his head and laughed, "Because I know how to count, and I still count. You are very torn this time, thinking about killing me directly, but also afraid that you will be really unlucky. What the poor said right?"

Master Liu said expressionlessly: "I admit, you do have skills."

Gu Bao lazily said: "Abandon the darkness and turn to the light, otherwise within a year, you are not the only one who will be unlucky, and your whole family will be implicated."

Mr. Liu recently wants wind to win wind, rain to rain, because the official fortune is prosperous, the wealth is rolling in, and the family has a happy event, if someone talks to him like this, he will beat him to death with a stick.

But Gu Bao was different, he was too good at calculations, standing in front of this person, it was as if everything had been seen through.

Most of those who are officials and get rich are superstitious.

He is also included.

Gu Bao said that he would have disasters in the future, it was hard for him not to believe it.

Taking a deep breath, Master Liu said softly, "Gu...Young Master Gu, is there a way to save him?"

Gu Bao secretly laughed in his heart, the world's affairs, true and false, who dare to say clearly?

In many cases, the more you know, the more confused you become.

Ignorance is fearlessness!

Gu Bao ignored him, and lowered his head to grab the cold food with his chopsticks.

Master Liu glanced at it, and hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, I'll get someone to bring you some hot food and wine."

Gu Baodao: "Forget it, I have already given you the way of salvation, it just depends on whether you are willing to do it or not."

"What way?" Master Liu was taken aback.

"I said, I didn't kill anyone, but why did the Wang family bribe you, don't you know why?"

Master Liu fell silent.

"Do you know about my relationship with Princess Guantao?" Gu Bao asked casually.

Mr. Liu was taken aback for a moment, and said in a daze, "What's the relationship?"

Chapter 428: Confronting the Court

Gu Bao had a strange expression on his face, Princess Guantao came to see him, this old boy didn't know.

"She's my godmother."

Master Liu was dumbfounded, staring blankly at Gu Bao in front of him.

Gu Bao said with a half-smile: "The Wang family asked you to condemn me to death, do you think you can kill me?"

After a pause, "I've already said what I need to say. What you do will represent your future destiny. Mr. Liu, your life may not be worth much, but your family's life is very valuable. You can do it yourself." .”

Master Liu stammered, "I, what should I do?"

He panicked for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

"Just seek truth from facts and find all the loopholes you can find. Whether it is my problem or the Wang family's problem, you should know in your heart."

Mr. Liu walked out of the prison with a pale face, a Sima face, but fortunately he was always like this, but no one noticed his strangeness.

As soon as he appeared in the government office, a teacher said: "My lord, Princess Guantao is here."

Master Liu was taken aback, and said urgently: "Where is the person?"

The master looked strange, and said: "The person is in the front yard, Mr. Liu, I heard that Princess Guantao seems to be that Gu Bao's godmother."

Master Liu glared fiercely at Master, who was puzzled by the stare, and dared not ask further questions.

"Your official has met Princess Guantao."

Seeing a group of people coming, thinking of what Gu Bao said earlier, Master Liu felt guilty for a while.

"Excuse me, Master Liu, you must know why I came here, tell me, did Gu Bao commit a crime?"

"This this......"

Master Liu stuttered and couldn't speak.

Princess Guantao calmly said: "Let me tell you, Gu Bao also participated in the consort selection meeting and entered tomorrow's finals, and you locked him up today, hehe, if I find out that he has not committed a crime, Do you know what the consequences are?"

Master Liu's complexion changed slightly, and he said in a low voice, "Your Highness, what are you planning?"

"Immediately promoted, guilty or not, everyone will watch, and there will be a fair judgment."

Master Liu looked at the people behind her, nodded, and immediately ordered the master to summon people to the hall.

Not long after Gu Bao was censored, he was censored again in a blink of an eye, which made a group of people very puzzled.

But after seeing Princess Guantao, they suddenly understood something again.

Princess Guantao sat beside Master Liu, waiting for Gu Bao's time, she said: "Is there no one from the Wang family?"

Master Liu hurriedly said: "I'll let someone call me now."

The Wang family didn't arrive, but Gu Bao came first.

Seeing Princess Guantao, Gu Bao was overjoyed and hurriedly greeted her.

Princess Guantao nodded slightly, and signaled with her eyes that he should not worry, and he would be rescued in a while.

It didn't take long for everyone to wait, and someone from the Wang family came.

As Gu Bao expected, the people who came were Wang Lun and Wang Liang brothers.

Seeing Princess Guantao present, the two looked unnatural.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Master Liu coughed lightly twice, and shouted: "Ascension hall!"

"Gu Bao, the Wang family sued you for killing the servants in his house, can you plead guilty?"

"No!" Gu Bao calmly said, "I didn't kill anyone."

Wang Lun jumped up and said, "You didn't kill anyone? You didn't kill anyone. How did Wang Er in my mansion die?"

Gu Bao chuckled and said, "Wang Lun, I kicked Wang Er back then, but it was far less vicious than we did during the competition. You didn't die, so how could something happen to Wang Er?"

Without waiting for Wang Lun to speak, he continued: "My lord, I think this is a frame-up by the Wang family. Wang Er didn't die on the spot, but he died when he returned to the Wang family. Who knows whether it was me or the Wang family who killed him?" ?”

No one spoke, after all Gu Bao had already said it before.

Master Liu nodded, looked at Wang Lun, "Young Master Wang, what do you want to say?"

Wang Lun blushed and said: "It's nonsense and bloody, how could my Wang family kill their own servants."

Gu Bao laughed and said: "That's not necessarily the case, maybe a human life is not as good as a dog's life to some people."

Wang Lun said angrily: "In my eyes, you are indeed not as good as a dog's life!"

Wang Liang was taken aback. Where is Princess Nima? How dare you say that?

He hastily pulled Wang Lun.

Wang Lun glanced at him blankly, before asking why, he heard a cold snort from the side.

"Wang Lun, you are so brave. My son's life is worse than a dog? Then what are you?"

Wang Lun's heart skipped a beat, he secretly thought it was bad, he hurriedly said with a smile: "Princess, forgive me, just now Gu Bao's words angered me, I speak like this without restraint, I hope the princess will not take it to heart."

Princess Guantao got up and walked to the middle of the hall, she said softly: "Lord Liu, can you confirm whether it was Gu Bao or the Wang family who killed the man?"

Seeing that everyone was looking over, Master Liu smiled wryly, "I don't know for now."

Seeing Wang Lun's eyes blazing, he said bravely, "However, it's not difficult to be sure. You can check the body, and you'll know exactly how you died."
