Chapter 306 Last Chance

The court, which had just calmed down, was in a state of panic because of the haunting incident. Many officials who had participated in the destruction of the Su Family and had not been sentenced were trembling with fear that the next person to play chess with Prime Minister Su was him.

Naturally, Mu Tinng had heard of Prime Minister Su's epiphany, but he let it go and ordered the secret guards to protect the perpetrators privately, which the court did not know.

Within five days, several bruised ministers had resigned from their posts on the rampage of Golden Chime Hall, and at the same time, many of them had clamored up, making Golden Chime Hall sound as noisy as a vegetable market. As a result, the two officials were arrested for contempt of the monarch and sentenced to family copying and exile. Those officials who were bitten were also temporarily dismissed for investigation.

"Did you hear that? That old man Gu Qinglin designed Prime Minister Su's death not to win the queen's throne for his daughter, but to secretly work for that small country of the Yulin in an attempt to annexe the vast rivers and mountains of my Tianlan?"

"Then gu changqing is actually the son and grandson of the Yulin? No wonder he doesn't look like a person from the Yulin."

"I heard that the Yulin got the exact location of the ancient treasure, so they dared to have such a big ambition to annex the countries. It seems that they have already begun to dig for the treasure. Those traitors who helped them rule the world can be crowned king and worshipped by then."

There were all kinds of rumors among the people. Su Mianyue, who was sitting in the teahouse drinking tea, turned to Ji Xun and asked, "Is this your handwriting?"

"Half and half." Ji Xun smiled.

Su Mianyue turned his eyes and asked with interest, "Could it be that they really got the treasure? I remember you had several pieces there."

"They are the only nobles in the battle of ancient times who have been in stock so far. It is said that there is a simple map of the treasure, but the Yulin has always been divided into two factions. One thinks that they should follow the rules of their ancestors and not touch the treasure. The other thinks that they should not follow the rules." Ji Xun smiled faintly, but Wen Ya had the world's message.

"What about you? Don't you want to compete with them?" Su Mianyue was a little excited to try.

"If the treasure is so easy to obtain, how can the map be handed down to this day?" Ji Xun threw a bucket of cold water on Su Mianyue to wake her up.

Thinking of the map that he had obtained in the Hengyuan, a complicated look flashed in Su Mianyue's eyes before he said, "I got another one recently. I'll give it to you later."

"Okay." Ji Xun replied faintly, looking away from Su Mianyue's face that had never been seen before. Naturally, he saw Su Mianyue's flash of expression just now.

After listening to the discussion for a while, some disguised passers-by came over and whispered something in Ji Xun's ear. Ji Xun's face changed slightly.

"What happened?" Su Mianyue asked.

"Gu Changqing ran away." Ji Xun's tone remained unchanged, but there was a murderous glint in his eyes. This Gu Changqing was definitely one of the masterminds who killed the Su Family, so such a person could not stay.

The smile on Su Mianyue's pretty face disappeared in an instant, replaced by a hint of coldness, but he was not in a hurry to act. He just sat there quietly drinking tea, but the tea in the cup was not less than a point.

It was almost half a incense stick time before Su Mianyue looked at Ji Xun and smiled, "Since you know the information about the internal affairs of Yulin, you must know where this Gu Changqing went. He left it to you, Yu."

After that, he closed the folding fan in his hand and Su Mianyue left the teahouse with his hands behind his back.

She had always been in the light and that person was in the dark. Now that she knew about the Gu Family, that person should know, but she didn't know if he would do it.

To Su Mianyue's disappointment, she waited outside the Gu's Mansion until it was dark and did not see that person coming. Instead, Mu Tinng sent zeng shuo, the commander of the Gu's Mansion, to raid the door.

The Gu's Mansion, which had once been a proud member of the royal family, was now being escorted by the Imperial Guard to the sky prison. They did not even have to interrogate the court to convict them directly.

Most of the men and women had fallen asleep at this hour, and Zeng Shuo had no regard for their faces and had them tied up and left. Gu changfeng had been dragged out without even putting on a piece of cloth. Even if they could be released, the whole family would be shameless. And Zeng Shuo was so shameless that everyone would guess that it was Mu Tinng's idea.

Gu Family has always been known as a noble official, there is no luxury in the house, but the raid on the Gu Family shocked Zeng Shuo, not to mention the fact that there were more than a dozen secret roads, some directly outside the city, and some directly to the palace.

In addition, the number of secret rooms searched was even more numerous. In the courtyard where Gu Qinglin lived alone, in addition to the secret rooms that hid gold and silver treasures, there was also a room that was locked up by young girls and did not give them a piece of shame cloth. After interrogation, they found out that these girls were Gu Qinglin's toys to vent his anger and desire. When he was tired of playing, he would reward his subordinates. In the end, there was only one word - death!

The Gu Family had four sons in total, and the other three had a small amount of silver in their courtyards, which was the right number, but the treasures found in gu changqing's courtyards were more abundant than the national treasury. Most likely, the underground secret passageway led out of the city, and only one went into the palace.

While asking his subordinates to check out the secret passageways, Zeng Shuo returned to the palace to report the matter to mu ting before he could count his belongings first.

"Give me a thorough investigation of Weiyang Palace, lenggong, and the Imperial Hospital." Mu Tinng gave the order in a cold voice. The thought of someone digging so many secret passages under the palace made Mu Tinng feel cold on his back. In his sleep, he did not know who put a sword on his back. It was simply terrifying.

A thorough investigation of Weiyang Palace and the cold palace was because Gu Linng was there, and the Imperial Hospital was because when they did a thorough investigation, they found out that Imperial Physician Lee's relationship with the Gu Family was too unusual. In fact, Mu Tinng suspected Imperial Physician Lee when Gu Linng pretended to be pregnant, but it was not yet time to investigate his background.

At this time, in the cold palace, Gu Linng was in a corner of her shabby bed, looking at the man who appeared in front of her with a guarded face. The bamboo chopsticks in her hands were her weapon to protect herself.

Don't act like a fool in front of me. This is the last chance I'll give you. After you kill Mu Tinng, you leave this secret path. I'll arrange for you to follow. Gu Changqing opened his mouth with a sullen face and threw a pack of drug maniacs beside Gu Linng. He said coldly, "Father raised you for so long and wanted you to be useful to him. If you are still so useless, there shouldn't be a place for you in the cold palace."

"He won't see me. You know he won't see me. Why are you forcing me? Do you want me to die to make you happy?" Gu Linng cried out trembling, tears streaming down her face, but Gu Changqing was not moved.

"Your heart disease requires pills from your father every month to survive. How many days has it been this month?" Gu Changqing snorted coldly, ignoring Gu Linng, who was about to rush over like a maniac, turned around, entered the secret passage and sped off.

As for Gu Linng's choice, Gu Changqing was not worried at all. Gu Family people were born to be selfish, and this Gu Linng was the most. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
