Gu Qiancheng felt uneasy but could not show it. He could only stand quietly in the courtroom and wait for the Dali Temple Minister's decision.
The Minister of Dali Temple didn't want to get involved with the Gu family, so he immediately ordered someone to bring water up and let Gu Qiancheng and Gu Guogong drop their blood for a blood test.
The official quickly brought a bowl of water and two knives, and respectfully presented them to the Minister of Dali Temple.
"Well," the Minister of Dali Temple glanced at it and said, "Doctor Xu, I leave it to you."
The blood test was proposed by Dr. Xu. He was the only doctor in the court, so naturally he would personally preside over the blood test.
This is not wrong, but it does not conform to the principles of the Gu family. Why would the Gu family let Dr. Xu arrange a blood test? Aren't the Gu family afraid of Dr. Xu's manipulation?
Gu Qiancheng frowned and quietly looked at Dr. Xu, but found nothing unusual.
From Qin Jiyan's conversation yesterday, Gu Qiancheng was certain that Dr. Xu was not Qin Jiyan's person. So, was Dr. Xu's upright offer of a blood test in court just to prove his innocence?
Gu Qiancheng believes that there are not all bad people in the world, but he doesn't mind using the greatest malice to judge others. Gu Qiancheng secretly pays attention to Doctor Xu's every move, but...
When Doctor Xu walked up to Gu Guogong with the official who was carrying the water, his back was turned to Gu Qiancheng. Gu Qiancheng could not see anything. He only heard Gu Guogong's dissatisfied scream of pain, and then Doctor Xu led the official and headed toward her.
Come.
There was already a drop of Gu Guogong's blood in the bowl of water, and now it was time for Gu Qiancheng to drop the blood into it.
"Miss Gu, please..." Doctor Xu took a clean knife and handed it to Gu Qiancheng.
Gu Qiancheng took the knife but did not cut off his finger immediately. Instead, he raised his head and glanced at Mrs. Gu and Gu Guogong. The two people looked nervous and there was nothing unusual. Then they looked at Doctor Xu...
His face was full of kindness, just like the grandfather next door, and there was nothing unusual about it. But Gu Qiancheng was uneasy. How could Duke Guo and Mrs. Gu not do anything if they knew they would take a blood test today?
This is completely inconsistent with Gu Qiancheng's understanding of the two of them.
"Miss Gu, what's wrong with you?" Doctor Xu urged, there was no impatience in his tone, only a touch of concern.
Gu Qiancheng hurriedly withdrew his eyes and blinked away a tear, "I, I'm fine." He raised the knife tremblingly, but it didn't cut it off. Gu Qiancheng kept paying attention to the expressions of everyone present...
No one was abnormal, Gu Qiancheng thought to himself: Could it be that she thinks too much and has persecution delusion?
But just when she thought so, she unexpectedly discovered that Dr. Xu's hand hanging by his side was trembling slightly, and his little finger was unnaturally bent, which was a sign of nervousness.
Doctor Xu has a question?
Gu Qiancheng raised his eyebrows and glanced at Doctor Xu quickly. There was no flaw in Doctor Xu's face, but Gu Qiancheng did not dare to take it lightly.
Dr. Xu is a doctor with excellent medical skills. Maybe Dr. Xu also knows what she knows.
Gu Qiancheng was startled again. This time, the Dali Temple Minister was also dissatisfied. Gu Qiancheng was too ink-stained. The Dali Temple Minister urged: "Miss Gu, what are you waiting for?"
The opportunity has come!
Gu Qiancheng's eyes lit up, as if he had been greatly frightened, and he screamed. The knife in his hand was loosened and fell to the ground with a clang.
"Ah..." Gu Qiancheng jumped up in fright, and the knife fell to the ground. The official and Doctor Xu who were holding the water were also frightened and backed away. Gu Qiancheng took advantage of the chaos, quickly reached out and dipped his hand in the water bowl, and then sent it away.
Put it in your mouth...
No surprise, water is acidic!
In other words, even if her blood and Gu Guogong's blood were originally compatible, this bowl of water with added ingredients would be able to detect that they were not.
What a plan!
Gu Qiancheng gave Dr. Xu a meaningful look.
As soon as Dr. Xu stood firm, he looked up and met Gu Qiancheng's all-seeing eyes. His hands and feet instantly went cold: Did she find out?
"Miss Gu, what are you doing? This is the court, not your boudoir, and you are not allowed to play around." The Minister of Dali Temple was very dissatisfied, very dissatisfied. Do the Gu family treat the court as a trivial matter? None of them treat this Dali as a child.
The temple minister took it seriously.
"Sir, I'm not playing around." Gu Qiancheng knew there was something wrong with the water, so why would he waste another drop of his blood?
"If you don't want to play around, hurry up and put the blood in. A group of us are waiting." The Dali Temple Minister looked impatient. Seeing that Doctor Xu was stunned, the officer hurriedly bent down to pick up the knife on the ground and handed it to Gu.
Qiancheng, but Gu Qiancheng refused. "Sir, I refuse to use this bowl of water to drop blood for a marriage test."
"Miss Gu, do you want me to say it again? This is the court!" The Dali Temple Qing slapped the wooden door, and the "pop" sound startled everyone, and also woke up Dr. Xu.
At this moment, Doctor Xu was no longer as calm as before. His eyes were evasive and his eyelids were drooped. He did not dare to look at Gu Qiancheng or the Minister of Dali Temple.
Gu Qiancheng had no time to care about Dr. Xu's rudeness. She stepped forward and cupped her hands towards the Dali Temple Minister: "Sir, this bowl of water is sour. I ask for a new bowl of water."
"What did you say?" The Dali Temple Minister was startled, with a puzzled expression on his face and a hint of uneasiness.
Someone is playing tricks under his nose?
If the emperor knows this, how can he still fool around?
"If you don't believe me, you can try it. I don't know what has been added to this water, but it is actually sour." Gu Qiancheng said vaguely, but everyone in the audience understood what he meant.
The Minister of Dali Temple was also a serious master and immediately said: "Send it up."
Gu Guogong and the old lady looked at each other quickly, guessing something in their minds, but then they looked annoyed. As if they had made an appointment, the mother and son stared at Gu Qiancheng at the same time: "Troublemaker!"
The Dali Temple minister took a taste of the water, frowned, and said nothing. He only glared at the official who was carrying the water, and asked his confidant to get another bowl of water.
The Minister of Dali Temple repeatedly emphasized the need for clean water!
As the Minister of Dali Temple emphasized again and again, the atmosphere in the court became subtle again. Mrs. Gu and Gu Guogong's faces turned blue and white. It was obviously not them who did this, but when Gu Qiancheng made such a fuss, it was not them but them.
Done.
As for Doctor Xu?
He was not exposed from the beginning to the end, but at this time, he no longer had the same energy as before, his whole person was languid, and he stood there motionless.
The Minister of Dali Temple only thought that he was frightened and did not suspect anything, and Gu Qiancheng did not say anything.
Clean water was presented again. This time, the Minister of Dali Temple did not ask Doctor Xu to come forward, but went forward to supervise it himself to prevent anyone from causing trouble again.
In order to ensure that there was no problem with the water, the minister of Dali Temple poured out three cups from the bowl and asked Doctor Xu, Gu Guogong and Gu Qiancheng to confirm.
"It has no taste." Gu Guogong said reluctantly, and Gu Qiancheng and Doctor Xu also nodded one after another.
"No problem, please give me your blood." Dali Temple Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that there would be another problem with this case. You know...
The Gu family has Concubine Gu and the fifth prince keeping an eye on it, and the Wu family has the Yan family and the Feng family putting pressure on him. He doesn't dare to offend either of them, so business must be done in an orderly manner!
