Going to the imperial court to file a false lawsuit is a crime of deceiving the emperor!!

Concubine Yang's pupils shrank like falling into an ice cellar, and her limbs became cold, but it was difficult for him to answer Gu Jue's series of questions.

Now she is like a person walking on a tightrope, with an invisible bottomless abyss below. As long as a breeze blows, she may fall down and be doomed.

Concubine Yang's fear and guilt were almost written on her face.

In the eyes of the three masters of the Sansi and the four lords, there was a vague answer in his heart: So that's it. Did the new emperor know that Gu Ming had already squandered the 300,000 taels? Gu Ming and his son came here to complain to the emperor because they were short of money!

Concubine Yang's eyes rolled and said vaguely: "The silver must be used at home." She dared not say in detail. Even if she made up a lie temporarily now, someone would have to cooperate with her to make up the lie.

Gu Jue smiled faintly, not saying anything.

The closed folding fan in his hand turned rapidly twice in his hand, and his movements were calm and composed.

Chen Qianchen looked at his hands. His skin was as white as jade, his fingers were slender, his joints were clear, and his nails were always trimmed cleanly. Now his nails are no longer as pale as before, with a healthy blush.

His hands are very good, so they all look very good when playing chess, playing piano, writing, and drinking tea. Even if he takes a fan now, he still has an indescribable beauty. Chen Qianchen accidentally saw it.

Prince Li glanced at Gu Jue and Chen Qianchen, and saw that they were both smiling with eyebrows and eyes. He thought they were really well-educated and were almost called the demon queen and were so calm.

Prince Li believed that he did not have such good cultivation and sneered sarcastically: "Yang, even if his family eats gold, he will not use 300,000 taels in seven months. This is absolutely unreasonable."

"There is something abnormal and there will be a demon!"

Prince Li has disdained to show her any mercy to Concubine Yang.

As a ruling, Prince Li could scold Concubine Yang, and the Minister of Justice and others saw through it and didn’t say it out loud. Anyway, as long as the case was not reached the level of the trial of the Three Departments, they didn’t have to ask about it. The new emperor asked them to watch it, and then they just watched it.

Although they have only been working with the new emperor for three months, they have begun to understand the new emperor's behavior. If they don't take action, they will make a big splash when they take action. They will force the palace to do so, and they will be so busy with their jobs.

Concubine Yang wanted to play tricks in front of the new emperor and use her tricks, but she was simply using a big sword in front of Guan Gong, and she was overestimating her ability!

The three adults have relaxed and just thought they are watching the show.

"It's... the business failed." Concubine Yang said stammeringly to Prince Li, her eyes wandering again. Her hands were tightly clenched, and she forced herself to turn to see Gu Ming, for fear that someone would see the clues.

The cold sweat on Gu Ming's sideburns and the back of his neck became denser again, and a few drops of sweat slid along his cheeks to his chin.

"Have you lost all your property in business?" Prince Li almost laughed and said coldly, "Because he lost all his money, he took a fancy to the stepson's money and came to sue the emperor. He was shameless!!"

Prince Li shook his sleeves heavily. He was a famous good man in the royal family. It was rare to see him having such a big temper and giving a woman so shameless in public.

Concubine Yang: “…”

Concubine Yang's face turned pale and her face turned pale, and her expression was as ugly as a dead person. She said with a tough bullet: "Gu Jin forced us to sell the industry at a low price, and our family was at a disadvantage."

Whenever he thought of Gu Jin taking advantage of the situation when he was splitting up, Concubine Yang was so angry that she wanted to eat her flesh and blood.

Gu Jin almost wanted to refute again, but finally gritted his teeth.

"Gu Ming," Gu Jue's eyes moved from Concubine Yang to Gu Ming, who was bowing his head and silently asked, "Is that true?"

Having said that, there is actually no room for Gu Ming to deny it.

If he wants to deny it, it means that Concubine Yang committed the crime of deceiving the monarch, so he could only follow Concubine Yang's words: "Yes, it's the minister who is incompetent."

Even if the capital city will know that Gu Ming lost 300,000 taels of silver tomorrow, he can only accept it.

Gu Ming still lowered his head, maintaining a bowing posture, and even dared not wipe the sweat that flowed to his chin.

"Then what business are you doing?" Gu Jue asked, and then turned the folding fan around again.

Chen Qianchen was eager to try it because he turned around. He couldn't help but take the folding fan in his hand and turned it up like him. The first time he was quite unfamiliar, and after turning it three or four times, he got very good at it.

While turning the folding fan, she still had time to give Gu Ming below a look: This person, once he lies, he will tell more lies to fulfill his lies. If he is not capable, he should not lie.

Gu Ming was sweating coldly and his eyes rolled around several times. He never thought Gu Jue would ask this question, and he was so panicked that he could not calmly think.

After a while, he stammered and replied: "Sea Boat."

"I have invested the money in the sea trade, but something happened..."

For a moment, Gu Ming couldn't think of any business he could pay 300,000 taels of silver. He intuitively remembered the fact that Li Er's ship capsized on the sea.

The four disciples were stunned. For those who came from ordinary families, 300,000 taels were already an unimaginable huge sum of money.

Gu Jue's eyes were looking at Chen Qianchen's hand turning his fan, but he was still saying to Gu Ming: "Are you sure you are doing maritime trade compensation?"

Gu Ming nodded: "Confirm!"

"Gu Ming, kneel down!" Gu Jue's tone suddenly became cold, "You haven't pleaded guilty yet!"

Gu Ming was already nervous, his feet became soft, his knees were bent, and he knelt directly on the golden brick floor, which made his knees hurt a little.

Concubine Yang was afraid that Gu Ming would talk nonsense, so she rushed to say, "Your Majesty, what do you mean?!"

"The dog son was not careful and he paid the money, but Gu Jin took advantage of the situation to rob and bully his young brother. Isn't that a crime? Your Majesty, if you don't preside over justice for our mother and son, you will also throw a bucket of dirty water on the dog son!"

Concubine Yang's voice became more and more sharp. She was nervous and forgot all the pain left by the stick on her body.

"Bully?" Gu Jue curled the corner of his mouth with a smile. Facing the aggressive Concubine Yang, he laughed instead of anger, "Gu Jin is still too tolerant."

If it were Gu Jue, he would never let his daughter be harmed like that, nor would he give up his title of prince in vain and retreat again and again.

Since Gu Ming refused to say it, Gu Jue said for him: "Gu Ming, haven't you used that 300,000 taels to fill the 'deficiency'?"

Concubine Yang: "!!!"

Gu Ming: "!!!"

Gu Ming's body seemed to be shot into the heart by Gu Jue's words, and his body trembled violently, and his eyes were almost at the extreme.

Anyone can see that he was touched by Gu Jue.

Gu Jue simply snapped his fingers. For Gu Jin, this seemed to be a signal. He suddenly became energetic and stroked his sleeves casually. Finally, it was his turn to make a comeback.

Gu Jin curled his lips and smiled, as if his elder brother was like a father, and sighed helplessly: "Third brother, I have advised you a long time ago, and I can't get enough money for printing money."

When he heard the "yinziqian", Gu Ming seemed to have his bones all over his body, and his body almost fell down. A thought revolved in his mind: How did Gu Jin know about Yinziqian?!

In the second half of last year, the late emperor Gu Lang ordered the Ministry of Works to repair the Taimiao and allocated 300,000 silver from the inner trough to repair the Taimiao. At that time, Gu Ming was responsible for supervising the worker in the clan mansion.

The 300,000 yuan silver was used to pay for stone, wood and craftsmen's wages.

He deliberately took out the 300,000 silver from the inner treasury a month in advance and secretly put the seal money on it, thinking that as long as he paid back the money before the end of the year, he could get a profit of 50,000 taels.

This is a total of 50,000 taels, and it is a business without a foundation.

Gu Ming was moved. He thought he could take back the seal money in time. Who would have asked him that the Li Er who borrowed the money actually ran away, and the 300,000 taels of silver was wasted.

For this reason, Gu Ming had to sell his property to Gu Jin at a low price when he was splitting up. He then collected 300,000 taels and filled the hole. Finally, he had an explanation from the late emperor Gu Lang.

Later, Gu Ming also sent people to find Li Er's whereabouts, but because it was involved in his embezzlement of public funds and the court ordered that the seal money be not allowed to be released, he did not dare to find someone blatantly, so he could only try to keep a low profile.

Later, the late emperor Gu Lang died.

To be honest, Gu Ming was relieved at that time, feeling that no one would look up the old account again, and no one would find out that he had paid the money one month in advance.

Who would have thought that half a year later, this old thing would surface again without warning. The more Gu Ming thought about it, the more uneasy he became.

Gu Jin bowed to Gu Jue solemnly, and his face turned upright. The handsome face, which was usually a bit careless, suddenly became righteous and explained the causes and consequences: "Your Majesty, my third brother took the errand to privately move the money to someone, but the other party escaped with the money. The 300,000 taels of silver should be used to fill the gap in the errand."

"The family scandals should not be made public. There are some things that I was not convenient for me to say. In fact, I was afraid that my third brother would have too much money, so I would put out the seal money and ruin all the property of the Prince's Mansion. Then I changed the property of the Prince's Mansion to my name at a discount."

Gu Jin said with a sincere look, and that was almost like that. He had no choice but to do it in order to protect his ancestral property.

Prince Li really believed it a little and nodded and picked his beard. Selling his property is a prodigal son. Gu Ming could not control the family business of the county prince's mansion at all, so it would be better to sell it to Gu Jin at a low price.

"No, Master, I have no deficit." Gu Ming raised his head, shook his head in panic, denied it, and there was a lot of cold sweat on his back, and he felt like he was fished out of the water, both panic and embarrassed, and even more regretful.

Gu Ming didn't know how much Gu Jin knew, but he also knew that the crime of "deficiency" could not be recognized. The deficiency was much more serious than putting money on the mark.

That's right, he absolutely cannot recognize it!

Concubine Yang also knew that her son had put money on the seal, and her heart was also sank, but she still retorted: "Your Majesty, it's a shame that your dog stolen public funds without any evidence!"

In Yang's opinion, his son "borrowed" the 300,000 taels of silver, but have they sold their property and returned the money back! No one except their family suffered a loss. How can this be called "deficiency"?

Gu Jin cursed the corner of his mouth sarcastically, but he was not surprised by the reaction of the mother and son. Like mother and son, they always never shed tears when they see the Yellow River!

"No evidence?" Gu Jue said, putting down the teacup in his hand. The bottom of the cup hit the table and made a clear impact sound. The sound made Gu Ming's heart tremble.

Gu Jue looked at Gu Ming and said, "On the ninth day of last winter, you gave Li Er 300,000 taels of sons. Li Er promised you to return them within a month and promised you a profit of 50,000 taels."

"On the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month last year, Li Er left the capital without saying goodbye."

Gu Ming: "!!!"

Gu Ming's heart fell down.

When Prince Li heard the "Fifth day of the twelfth lunar month", he thought about it and the division documents stated the date of separation. Prince Jingjun’s Mansion was the home on the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month last year.

Looking back now, it must be that Gu Ming knew that Li Er was escaping that day, so he suddenly changed his attitude and sold his property to Gu Jin at a low price to raise money to fill the gap somewhere.

The others next to them were also thinking, even though they didn't know the whole story of this matter, they almost knew it when they heard this.

So the key to the problem is where did the 300,000 taels of silver Gu Mingfang come from?

Gu Ming's heart became even lower, and the more he heard it, the more he became more and more panicked. A desperate and shocked voice echoed in his head: Gu Jue knew everything, and he knew so much.

He seemed to be hit by five thunders, and his mind roared.

He could feel his body trembling slightly. Even if he used all his strength, he could not suppress it. In the end, there was only one thought left in his mind: he could not recognize it.
