Gu Ziming lowered his eyes in thought for a moment, then answered with certainty, "Paper is the most commonly used paper in the Qi Kingdom. There is nothing special about it." The letter and the map were not burned. "
After hearing Gu Ziming's answer, Zhi-Ning understood what was going on. She took out a small piece of paper from her sleeve, placed it on the table, and slowly said, "This piece of paper was found by Bing'er and I in disguise when we entered the old general's room." Bing-Er and I searched through all the papers on the old general's shelf, and found that there were no papers on the old general's shelf like this one. And this piece of paper seems to have been burned or torn from a large piece of paper. "
He reached out his hand and held the small piece of paper on the table in his hand, looking at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the uglier his expression became. Suddenly, he placed the small piece of paper on the table, stood up from the stool, and slowly opened his mouth with his back facing the people, "This small piece of paper is not our Qi Country's paper, it's a paper that the Liao people are used to." Unexpectedly, there was a piece of paper from the State of Liao in the old general's room. In other words, his father was in contact with the Great Western Continent's people, and it could be said that his father was a sinner who sold his country to the enemy!
This little piece of paper was really not from the Qi Kingdom. In other words, this little piece of paper was most likely brought by the murderer, because there was not a single piece of paper in the old general's room that was used by the people of Liao!
Zhining stood up from the stool with a pale look and said coldly, "Great, if we follow this little piece of paper, we will most likely find the real killer who killed the old general."
But anyone could hear the excitement in her cold voice.
"Let's call it a day. You guys don't need to keep checking. " Gu Ziming turned around and looked at Zhining.
ZhiNing's expression changed slightly. They had finally found a way to clear the old general's grievances, but Gu Ziming had said he didn't want to continue investigating?!
"Why?" Sihan stood up from the bed and slowly walked in front of Gu Ziming, looking at him with a puzzled expression.
Gu Ziming didn't answer Sihan. He turned around and didn't look at anyone. He had his own thoughts.
ZhiNing walked behind Gu Ziming with a displeased look and asked in a cold voice, "Why?" You clearly know that this is the only chance to avenge the old general, but why did you back off now? If we can't wash off the old general's grievances, then we can't rescue the Chief Patrol Officer from the prison. Do you want Southern Sea to stay in the prison for the rest of their lives just because your father turned the tables? "
With his back still facing the crowd, Gu Ziming slowly said, "This general will definitely think of another way to save Hai Yang from the prison." His tone was firm, showing his determination at this moment. It seemed like he would never stop until Southern Sea was rescued from prison.
ZhiNing suppressed the anger in her heart and looked at Gu Ziming mockingly, "Let me ask you, what method are you using, and when?" How long? One day? One month? Or one year, or eight years? " If there was any other way, they wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to wash the old general and get away. One had to know that the danger was too great!
"In any case, I'll definitely save Southern Sea from prison as soon as possible. You can rest assured." Gu Ziming promised Zhining without looking back.
"You can't even protect yourself, what kind of guarantee do you have for me to be able to save the Chief Patrol Officer from the prison?"
Gu Ziming immediately turned around, coldly looking at Zhining. "In short, I promise you that I'll definitely rescue Hai Yang from her prison, even if it's a prison robbery. Are you satisfied?"
ZhiNing retorted Gu Ziming without thinking, "Jailbreak? Do you think I didn't think of that? If you are a true friend of the Southern Sea, you should know that it is impossible for the Southern Sea to live for the sake of survival. "
Gu Ziming was instantly speechless. What Chen Zhi said was right. He absolutely could not live for the sake of his own life in Nanhai.
Sihan thought for a moment with her eyes, then understood. She knew why Gu Ziming had stopped them from investigating further.
She raised her head and looked deeply at Gu Ziming. She understood what Gu Ziming was thinking. He wanted to protect the final bit of the old general's honor and honor. Although the case of the old general committing suicide was the talk of the town, it would soon be forgotten because of his illustrious military exploits in the past. However, if they continued their investigation, this matter would be recalled by the people again. Moreover, if they found out that the old general had truly betrayed the country, then this matter would be remembered by the people for the rest of their lives.
She took a step forward to stand in front of Gu Ziming, "Even if the old general is truly traitorous, you should at least find the real culprit that killed the old general." The old general should not have died so randomly. "
Gu Ziming looked at Sihan in surprise. He didn't think that Sihan would actually know what he was thinking. He hesitated. If he continued to investigate, it might affect the old general's reputation in the future. If he didn't investigate, he would never know who killed the old general, nor would he know if the old general's killer was a traitor to the enemy. Should he continue?
She reached out her hand and lightly patted Gu Ziming's shoulder, giving him strength and support. "Don't worry, no matter what, I'll stand by your side. With the old general contributing so much to the Qi Kingdom, the Qi people won't only remember his sins, they'll also remember his honor." Just based on the wounds on the old general's body, one could tell how much the old general had done for the Qi Kingdom and how much he had done for the citizens to live a peaceful life. These were all iron-like facts, how could the citizens of the Qi Nation forget them so easily!
Sihan was right, his father, the old general, had sacrificed himself for the Qi Kingdom. Even if there was no merit, there was still hard work. The people of the Qi Nation wouldn't only remember his mistakes, they would also remember his good points.
He looked at Sihan with deep gratitude. Even if Sihan didn't support him at that time, he would be satisfied with just these words of Sihan. "Thank you." Then, he shifted his gaze from Sihan to Zhining, looking guiltily at Zhining. He had been thinking too superficial, "I will find out the real culprit who killed my father together with you." He would not let his father die without any reason!
ZhiNing looked at Gu Ziming with a gratified look. Being able to put aside the worries in his heart was truly a joyous matter.
Seeing that everyone was of the same opinion, Bing'er took the small piece of paper from the table and looked at it thoughtfully. "I seem to have heard that the Emperor found evidence in the hall that the old general secretly made weapons and sold them to the Kingdom of Yan, and this paper is actually from the State of Liao. Could it be that the old general has connections with both the State of Yan and the State of Liao?"
"Of course not, no matter how stupid he is, he would never be connected to two countries. There must be someone misleading us, letting us think that the old general is the enemy of the Swallow Country. In reality, they are secretly in close contact with the people of Liao Ren. This method of attacking from the east is too simple. " Sihan did not hesitate to refute Bing'er. She believed that if someone said that the weapons had been brought to the emperor, they must have been arranged beforehand to frame the old general.
Gu Ziming glanced at Sihan in the blink of an eye. He hadn't expected that not only did the Liang Family's Eldest Miss have a beauty that could topple empires, she was also very intelligent!
ZhiNing looked at Sihan and said, "I agree with Sihan very much. I believe that the culprit who killed the old general must be closely related to Liao Guang." After pausing for a moment, she continued, "However, the Yan Kingdom is a clue. We also need to send someone to investigate the identity of the man who brought the weapon to the main hall. Who ordered him to frame the old general? Although that person might have already been silenced. " The other side was very meticulous. They should have already done this long ago.
