Anyang is rich, and although the governor's position is low, his family is well-off, which is why Luo Zhaozhao has the opportunity to meet and get to know Gu Miao.
Anyang fine gold is much finer than ordinary gold, but its output is very small. In the previous life, Gu Qingsheng got to know it after she married into the general's mansion and saw Luo Zhaozhao often wearing it.
Most of the fine gold tributes to the palace were materials for making jewelry. The emperor might not understand, but the empress and the queen mother would recognize them as soon as they touched them.
This fake brand was so lifelike, and now Anyang fine gold was found on it, the finger of blame for the murderer suddenly pointed at Luo Qingsong.
Luo Qingsong's face turned pale. He could recognize it. It was Anyang Xijin.
"This! This! This minister is unaware of this!"
He kowtowed to the ground suddenly, his tongue began to tremble and his words were unclear.
"I really don't know why this sign says Anyang's fine gold, I..."
"That's right."
Gu Qingsheng suddenly spoke again, but this time his eyes were fixed on Luo Zhaozhao.
As if feeling someone's gaze falling on her, Luo Zhaozhao lowered her head and bit her lip.
When attending the banquet, Gu Miao had already sent someone to inform that Anyang Governor Luo Zhaozhao had recently had eye discomfort, so she had to enter with a blindfold, so that people would not be suspicious of her white silk.
Now that Luo Qingsong is in such a dire situation, naturally some people start to talk about Luo Zhaozhao's eyes.
"I remember that when I went to a teahouse to listen to an opera, I must have met Miss Luo. I showed my cards to the waiter at the time. I wonder if it was just a coincidence that Miss Luo saw it?"
Her target was not Luo Qingsong, but the most difficult Luo Zhaozhao.
It seemed as if the cards were dropped there just to wait for someone to find them. As luck would have it, the person ran away and left a card behind. As luck would have it, this card was a counterfeit of his own.
What's more coincidental is that the gold stamping on this card is from Anyang.
All signs point to the Anyang Governor and Luo Zhaozhao.
It seems like someone is manipulating this drama from behind the scenes.
The moment the cards came out, Gu Qingsheng knew that he was not the only one setting up the game tonight.
And there is the mastermind behind this drama, Luo Zhaozhao.
Just now, during the argument between Chu Zhiyao and Prince Duan, she had already noticed the Anyang fine gold on the card in her hand, but Gu Miao and Chu Zhiyao reacted as if they were completely unaware of this.
Fine gold is extremely rare these days and it is not yet the mining season, so the empress dowager immediately assumed that it was the governor of Luoyang. On the other hand, thinking about it, only the governor of Luoyang and Luo Zhaozhao had this gold, and considering that Luo Zhaozhao did not move at the moment, Gu Qingsheng made a rough guess.
He used Gu Qingsheng to set a trap for these people in order to draw everyone's attention and suspicion onto himself.
Moreover, this plan was planned by Luo Zhaozhao alone, and no one else knew about it.
Luo Zhaozhao, what are you planning to do?
Whatever.
Gu Qingsheng lowered his eyes.
Today, I will be this springboard.
"She is harming you, why are you so willing to be used by her?"
Miao Lanlan also became anxious after hearing what Gu Qingsheng said. It was obviously a trap, so why was Gu Qingsheng willing to jump into it?
"No, her target is not me."
Gu Qingsheng said to Miao Lanlan.
The two of them had fought for their entire lives in their previous lives, and Gu Qingsheng knew her too well.
If this person really intended to set up a trap, he would have done it perfectly. How could he have omitted the patterns on the cards in his hand? Such an omission would never happen to Luo Zhaozhao.
"Just wait and see."
Luo Qingsong was kneeling in the hall, wiping his tears non-stop. His head was bleeding and he was shouting that it was unfair.
When he heard Gu Qingsheng say these words, he seemed to see hope and pointed at Luo Zhaozhao.
"Yes! It's my daughter!"
"This must have been done by my daughter. She also has Anyang's fine gold in her hands, and she was the one who saw the princess's badge and forged it. This matter has nothing to do with me, Your Majesty!"
Luo Qingsong pushed Luo Zhaozhao out without hesitation. He seemed impatient and wanted to clear himself of suspicion as soon as possible.
Luo Zhaozhao stood still, not at all surprised, as if she had already expected Luo Qingsong to push her out.
This kind of behavior made many ministers very disgusted.
"This is the first time I've seen someone treat his daughter like this."
The person who spoke was Mrs. Liu, the wife of the Minister. Like the Queen, she had only one daughter, whom she loved very much. She was even more disgusted with Luo Qingsong's behavior.
"Or is he your biological child? Why are you so eager to use him as a scapegoat?"
She spat, and Luo Qingsong blushed.
"Don't say that, ma'am."
Luo Zhaozhao finally spoke, his tone neither salty nor bland, and walked in front of Luo Qingsong and saluted everyone on the stage.
"Empress Dowager, Zhao Zhao pleads guilty. Please punish me."
Gu Qingsheng raised his eyebrows.
She really didn't know what Luo Zhaozhao was up to.
Everyone was shocked by Luo Zhaozhao's words, and the emperor's face turned black.
"presumptuous!"
"Zhao Zhao! What the hell are you talking about!"
Gu Miao rushed to Taichung and grabbed Luo Zhaozhao
"What nonsense are you talking about! Get up! Explain everything to Father, the King, and Mother! You don't even know the truth about this!"
"Zhao Zhao! Get up! Explain clearly!"
She pulled Luo Zhaozhao, but found that she couldn't pull him up at all. Luo Zhaozhao just kept repeating one sentence:
"Zhao Zhao pleads guilty! I am willing to accept punishment!"
The two of them were pulling and tugging, and Gu Miao became impatient. He got angry when he saw Bao Lan who was in a daze.
"What are you standing there for? Come over here and pull your young lady up!"
She pulled Baolan, but this pull made Baolan stagger without reacting. A cloth bag suddenly fell out of her arms and fell to the ground, spilling a piece of Anyang fine gold.
The gold rolled very slowly and was as soft as water.
Luo Zhaozhao suddenly shouted, his voice filled with tears
"Baolan! What are you doing? Put it away now!"
But now, it can't be covered up no matter what.
Gu Miao was the closest, so he could see it most clearly. He was stunned for a moment and said loudly:
"It was you who stole the fine gold and framed Changle! And you let your master take the blame for you?!"
The ending was so incredible that everyone gasped.
Baolan's face was also dull, and he knelt down and waved his hands
"I don't know why this thing is here! I don't know! Why are these things in my arms! I don't know..."
"Baolan...you are so stupid..."
Luo Zhaozhao cried and hugged Baolan tightly, not giving people a chance to react to what Baolan had just said.
"How can I protect you if you do something like this? I know you've always hated the princess, but you can't use such extreme methods!"
Miao Lanlan: Good guy...
Now they know who Luo Zhaozhao's ultimate target is.
