He carried the medicine box and went into the secret cell to see Guangzhen.
Guang Zhen was really determined to die, and he obviously also knew medical skills. He bit the fatal artery at the base of his tongue, but the old protector acted quickly. He only bit half of it, but even so, he only had one breath left.
.
The government doctor shook his head at the old Protector, "Old Lord Protector, there is no hope."
The old Duke was furious. He didn't expect that this monk had a lot of backbone and would rather die than confess.
King Ruian didn't expect that someone would bite his tongue and commit suicide under the eyes of him and the old Protector. For ordinary people, suicide requires courage. This monk is very courageous and has enough energy to let himself die. Save
They can't be saved.
He stopped looking at Guangzhen and said to Wangsu: "Tell me, who does he usually associate with? Especially people from Beijing, please tell me carefully."
Wangsu was shocked, shocked and saddened by Guangzhen's cruelty towards him. He was incoherent for a moment, "Junior brother, he is in charge of the Discipline Hall. He is very strict. He is not special to anyone in the capital or the people in the capital."
of dealings..."
He realized that at this moment, his understanding of Guangzhen was completely subverted, "Junior brother, he is strict in discipline and has many daily affairs. Although the poor monk and he are fellow disciples, the poor monk also has many things to do and rarely talks in private.
, although we meet and talk every day, it is all for the sake of temple affairs..."
"I will give you time to think carefully about what is unusual about this light recently. You are both brothers and disciples of Buddhism. You grew up together and have been together for many years. You can always find something wrong with him."
Ruian Wangdao.
Wangsu's expression paused when he heard this, "Since a month ago, my junior brother has indeed felt something wrong, and he is often in a trance. But when I asked him, he only said that he has been feeling unwell recently, cannot rest well, and cannot sleep well at night."
"Has anyone seen him a month ago?"
Guangzhen shook his head, "The poor monk never paid attention."
King Ruian stopped asking and looked at the old Protector.
The old protector stopped asking and signaled King Ruian to go out. So, the two of them walked out of the secret cell together. The secret cell was closed again. The old protector said: "Your Majesty, go to the Great Buddha Temple! Find out what this light is usually related to.
When people come and go, check the things they use to see if there is anything particularly unusual. Also, if there are monks in the Great Buddha Temple, you need to check again."
King Ruian nodded, "I think so too. I will take Guangzhen's corpse to the Great Buddha Temple, while Wangsu should stay at the Protector's Mansion!"
After he finished speaking, he approached the old Protector and lowered his voice, "I always feel that there is something wrong with forgetting the customs. I am afraid that there are untruths. Let Zhou Gu rest and let him review it again. Since he has brought people
When you come back, you will have your own skills in interrogating people."
The old Protector nodded, "I know."
King Ruian said again: "There is also the Second Young Master Ning. He is the eldest prince's brother-in-law. Although he came to Wangsu, from what Wangsu revealed, he has not succeeded in committing the crime and it is not a crime. How do you think we should deal with it?"
"Let's leave him alone for the time being. Since he has not violated the law, there is nothing we can do about him." The old protector of the country said, "If we find out anything else, we will bring him to trial again."
King Ruian also had this intention, nodded, said goodbye and left the Duke Protector's Mansion.
After the old protector sent King Ruian out of the palace, he went to Zhou Gu's courtyard and saw Princess Sheng'an and others sitting in the painting hall outside. They were talking in a low voice. He asked, "How is Brother Gu?"
"I came back and said a few words before falling asleep. The medicine is almost ready, so I have to wake him up to take the medicine," said the eldest princess of Sheng'an.
The old Protector nodded and sat down, "Thanks to that little girl's intelligence, I expected that Brother Gu would get into trouble on the way back to Beijing, so I sent people to chase him fifty miles away and rescued him. Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous."
."
He had already heard what King Ruian said about what Zhou Gu said in detail in front of the emperor. King Ruian heard it clearly and knew that after Zhou Gu came back, he went directly back to the courtyard without mentioning it to him, so he told him the story in detail.
I was also very afraid.
Princess Sheng'an nodded, "We were talking about this just now. We, the Protector of the Country, owe Su Rong a favor."
Although Princess Sheng'an understood that Su Rong had made Zhou Gu fall in love and then came to break off the engagement, she was her grandson after all. Seeing how uncomfortable Zhou Gu was, she couldn't let go of Su Rong, which made her feel uncomfortable and unhappy.
Son, especially after hearing that the Duke's wife came to her that day and mentioned Zhou Gu's heartfelt words to her in tears, she couldn't even eat for the past two days. She wanted to see Su Rong immediately and fight for Zhou Gu.
A fight.
But she didn't expect that Su Rong and Ye Guixue went to the Great Buddha Temple and stayed there for a while. If they didn't return to Beijing, she couldn't pursue them. Especially since Zhou Gu was investigating the case and heard that they even bumped into each other, she
Also helpless.
But now, all the discomfort and frustration have been replaced by gratitude. In any case, Su Rong noticed it in advance, sent people to protect Zhou Gu, and saved Zhou Gu. She and the entire Protectorate Palace are grateful.
The old Protector sighed, "Brother Gu still needs some experience!"
The eldest princess of Sheng'an was unconvinced, "What he lacks is not experience, but manpower. You assigned him only a hundred guards. He took ten of them out of the city, and the rest were dispersed to investigate the case, and some were touched.
Nanchu checked Ye Xiangfu and Ye Guixue. Even if he knew that returning to the capital was dangerous, wouldn't he have come back? He rushed to the capital as soon as possible. It can only be said that the people behind him were watching too closely. "
The old Protector's beard curled up, "Money is needed to raise the Jingwei. All the brothers, except the prince, must be treated equally. If a bowl of water is uneven, the descendants will cause trouble in the inner courtyard. If everyone's guards increase to
Two hundred, the expenses will be paid by the middle-aged man, how much money will you get every month?"
All the ladies in the house were present, and he was not afraid to say it in front of his daughters-in-law. Anyway, his bowl of water was always fair.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an glared at the old protector fiercely and spoke for Zhou Gu, "You said this, but the high hopes you have for Brother Gu and the burden on his shoulders, can he be treated the same as others? Can he be treated the same as others?
It’s hard to lift it up, but the burden is too heavy.”
The ladies looked at each other and saw that the old couple, the parents-in-law, were about to quarrel, and they couldn't answer the question for a while. After all, they couldn't express their opinions on behalf of their sons and say that they would all have more guards, nor could they express their opinions that they would only add more escorts for Zhou Gu. After all,
, from childhood to adulthood, the descendants of the Protector's Palace, except for the prince, are treated the same regardless of their legitimate concubines. This has always been a rule. If the rule is broken now, the next generation will also break it.
Rules, the expenditure of money is huge. Even if the Duke Protector's family has a great business, it cannot support the huge expenditure of the descendants over the years.
It's hard for other ladies to say, but the Duke's wife can say: "Father, mother, please don't argue about this matter. It's my daughter-in-law's fault. My daughter-in-law didn't expect that someone would be so bold as to dare to attack hundreds of thousands of people in the capital."
Li Nei intercepted and killed Gu Geer and refused to stop. The daughter-in-law will discuss with the prince and Qingya. If they agree, the daughter-in-law will divide the daughter-in-law's dowry between the two brothers in advance and provide Gu Geer with more guards. In this way
, neither taking advantage of the central government, nor breaking the rules of our house."
After all, her dowry is her personal property. If it is divided among her sons, no one can say anything about it. There is nothing wrong with it.
The old Protector could not say anything for a moment, "Let's talk about it after Brother Gu wakes up!"
The eldest princess of Sheng'an agreed with the Duke's wife, "I think this is good. The others are not in danger, so there is no need to provide additional guards. If he is in danger, it should be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. How can money be more important than human life? You, a mother,
Yes, I can certainly contribute."
She could also use the name of the Duke's wife to secretly use her private room to help her grandson. Don't say she is partial to Zhou Gu. Everyone has partiality. She just loves Zhou Gu and no one can care about her.
The Duke's wife nodded, "My father-in-law and mother are right. Let's wait until Brother Gu wakes up to discuss this matter!"
The ladies naturally have no objections. The reason why there has never been a major conflict within the Duke's Mansion is that the old Patriarch, the Grand Protector, carries a bowl of water very evenly. As for Princess Sheng'an, although she loves Zhou Gu the most, she still loves Zhou Gu the most.
The other grandchildren are not uncared for, and Zhou Gu himself has never been stingy with his aunt and brothers. Over the years, every time he gets something from the prince and brings it back to the house, everyone has a share, even if he goes to Jiangning
The county came back from such a far distance and brought gifts to everyone. No one was left behind. Although the ladies did not speak to each other, they all had their own plans in mind. They thought that if Zhou Gu really added more guards, they would secretly supplement Zhou Gu's security.
Yes, after all, the ladies who married into the Duke's mansion were all young ladies from different families, with good family backgrounds, generous dowries, and many private houses.
While we were talking, the medicine was prepared in the kitchen and someone brought it over.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an took the medicine bowl and said, "Don't any of you go in, just disperse. I'll send it to Brother Gu."
The Duke's wife was helpless and said, "Mother, how can I let you come to give medicine? You are a grandmother, serving the younger generation, how can you be so virtuous and capable as a brother? It's better for your daughter-in-law to do it!"
"Don't worry about it, I'm happy." Princess Sheng'an went in with a medicine bowl.
The Duke's wife had no choice but to sigh inwardly and followed in. With her mother-in-law around, most of the time, she, the mother-in-law, had to stand aside.
The old Protector muttered dissatisfiedly, "You don't treat me so wholeheartedly."
All the ladies were silent, pretending that they did not hear what the old Duke said.
