Ning Ze had already had enough of the days of fear and darkness, so after Zhou Gu finished speaking, he nodded repeatedly to show that he knew everything he had said.
Zhou Gu looked at him and said, "I want to know about the eldest prince."
Ning Ze's face turned pale, "What's going on with him? Don't you know everything about the eldest prince?"
"Don't worry about whether I know it or not, just tell me what you know." Zhou Gu said.
Ning Ze opened his mouth, as if he didn't know where to start or what Zhou Gu wanted to hear.
Zhou Gu looked at him and said, "Let me give you an example. How much silver does the Nanping Marquis' Mansion send to the First Prince's Mansion every year? Through what channels? For example, what has the Nanping Marquis' Mansion secretly done for the First Prince over the years, such as
The list of courtiers to win over for the eldest prince, etc."
Ning Ze was horrified, "I, if I tell you, can I really live?"
Zhou Gu raised his eyebrows, "Don't you believe that the eldest prince will save you without telling you? Let me tell you, the eldest prince's palace has been sealed by the imperial guards sent by His Majesty, and your sister's evidence is conclusive. Now the eldest prince wants to get rid of her.
Relationship. If the eldest prince wants to protect himself wisely, he will put all the blame on your sister. In this way, he can protect himself. So, if you think about it with your not-so-smart mind, he will not even blame your sister.
Bao, will I save you?"
Ning Ze shook his head involuntarily.
Zhou Gudao: "So, do you want to say it or not?" He looked back at Xie Lin and said, "Now the two of us are your chance."
Ning Ze didn't dare to make any demands after hearing this. He could have a comfortable sleep and delicious meals, and now he was humbly satisfied.
"Yes." Zhou Gu said, "You lead the way."
If you don't tell, you don't tell. If you don't know, do you think he is stupid?
The two of them came to the place where the eldest prince's concubine Ning Yao was imprisoned. The place where Ning Yao lived was naturally much better than the dungeon where Ning Ze lived. Although it was also a secret cell, it was obviously much more spacious, and the furnishings matched her status.
Zhou Gu glanced at him and said, "I don't know."
Zhou Gu said directly: "The Marquis of Nanping has now heard the news that something has happened between the eldest princess and you. He secretly united with the Eighteen Villages to rebel. The prince has sent people to deal with it. If the Marquis of Nanping's mansion is branded as a rebel,
, then you really have no choice but to die. While Nanping Hou has not yet reached the point of no return, as long as you explain, there is still hope."
"Where is my father? How is my father now?" Ning Ze asked.
But now that the situation is stronger than others, and the crown prince is gaining momentum, if the Ruian Palace knows the current situation, it really has to seek refuge in the East Palace.
Perhaps in the eyes of many people now, Prince Ruian's Palace has taken refuge in the East Palace. Although only he knows that his father has not really taken refuge in the East Palace. He is just making a good deal with the East Palace and investigating the case based on the facts.
Ning Ze shouted, "I want to change my stay. I don't want to stay in this dark prison anymore."
Xie Lin took a breath silently and nodded in agreement with Zhou Gu, "Yes, if you want to live, tell everything you know. If you don't want to live, no one will save a useless person."
Xie Lin nodded, "Ah? Yes!"
This is easy, he can do it.
Xie Lin was stunned when he heard this, thinking that if Marquis Nanping knew that his favorite son was so incompetent, he would strangle him to death at birth. If the eldest prince knew that Ning Ze would be enough to betray him completely.
The eldest prince probably wanted to kill him with one knife.
Ning Yao was also very tortured during these days in detention. Although the food was delicious, she couldn't eat it and she was very haggard.
"It's different. I just asked you to explain what the eldest prince did. As long as the Nanping Marquis Mansion is not committing a serious crime of rebellion, Your Majesty will give Nanping Marquis a lighter sentence because of his meritorious service in guarding Nanping for many years. At least he will not be executed.
." Zhou Gu lost his patience, "Say it or don't tell it. If you don't say it, we're leaving."
Zhou Gu said without looking back: "It's not possible to change the place. Let me clean it for you and change the furnishings so that you can live comfortably. It's okay to have good food and drink." After saying this, he stopped.
He stepped forward and asked Xie Lin, "Really?"
Xie Lin nodded and said as he walked, "I really didn't expect that the eldest prince has done so many immoral things behind his back over the years. What are you going to do? Directly verify and collect evidence and submit it to His Majesty?"
With a trembling voice, Ning Ze racked his brains and told Zhou Gu and Xie Lin everything he could remember. After he couldn't remember anything anymore, he stopped talking and stared at Consultant Zhou: "Zhou Gu
, I have told you everything I know, you said you would keep me alive."
After leaving the cell, Xie Lin chased after Advisor Zhou: "Is it still necessary to see Ning Yao?"
Xie Lin thinks that what you think is great. Where else can I stay for you besides a prison cell?
Xie Lin: "..."
Ning Ze was really worried, "Say, I'll say."
"Yes, I said it, so just don't worry." Zhou Gu had already had enough of staying here and turned around to leave.
Xie Lin really wanted to turn around and leave. He was not yet a member of the East Palace faction. Zhou Gu wanted to drag him into trouble, but the court was now in this state. King Ruian was in charge of the case, so he could follow him after he left.
Are you as neutral as before? It's obviously impossible.
Ning Ze knew a lot of things. After all, he was the most beloved son of Marquis Nanping, the younger brother of the eldest prince, and the trusted brother-in-law of the eldest prince. Therefore, the things he poured out were very useful. Zhou Gu listened while listening
At the same time, I felt that I had come to the right place. With these secrets that Ning Ze spit out, it was enough to completely overthrow the eldest prince.
Zhou Gu shook his head and said, "Leave it to His Highness the Crown Prince to handle."
"I've already confessed, doesn't that mean there's only one way to die?" Ning Ze asked with a pale face and a trembling voice.
Xie Lin nodded, "You know the prince, so tell me, what will the prince do after verifying and collecting evidence? Will it be used together with this case to bring down the prince at once?"
When she saw Zhou Gu and Xie Linlai, she just raised her eyelids and glanced at them. She put her hand on her lower abdomen unconsciously and tightened it unconsciously. She thought that it was His Majesty's order to deal with her today.
There is a conclusion.
She didn't panic, but she was also very nervous, fearing that the child in her belly would not be enough to protect her in the eyes of the emperor. After all, the emperor had many children. Although she was the first child, other princes would also be without him in the future.
I'm not sure whether I will take it seriously or not.
Zhou Gu looked at Ning Yao, and naturally he would not use the same method to deal with Ning Yao as Ning Ze, "First Prince Concubine, do you think the First Prince will cut off the relationship with you, or will he blame everything on you?
On the body. Do you think His Majesty will go along with the situation and punish the eldest prince, or will he clearly understand and not believe that the eldest prince will clear you of things that you did not do?"
Ning Yao's expression changed, and the pretended calmness on her face was shattered by his words, "What do you mean?"
