After he finished speaking, Tang Jingyu seemed to understand their intentions and asked angrily, "Censor Zhou, could it be that this son of a bitch committed that tragic murder? You came to me, don't you think I'm the mastermind behind this?"
"I have no grudge against that family, so why would I kill them?" Tang Jingyu said coldly. "I've never even met that man named Zhang San. To claim he ordered his men to kill is sheer nonsense."
"Prince Jin, don't be angry. I asked you to come here today just to find out about Tang Yu's situation. After all, he is a member of your family. You should know him better than us." Prime Minister Zhou said.
The anger on Tang Jingyu's face faded, and he suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. Tang Yu is quite capable, so I'll let him help out with some trivial tasks outside. As for other matters, you'll have to ask the housekeeper in the mansion; he knows the most."
Afterwards, they called the steward of Prince Jin's Mansion.
"Whatever the gentlemen ask you, you must answer honestly and not tell a lie." Tang Jingyu warned the butler.
The butler nodded repeatedly.
"What do you think of Tang Yu?" asked Minister Yang.
"Tang Yu is quite capable, so I assigned him some tasks, like collecting rent. At first, he was diligent and did a good job, but over time, I discovered he was prone to deceit and deception. Once or twice, I'll punish him with a warning, but any more is off-limits. So, at the beginning of last month, I expelled him from the mansion."
"We never thought that this guy was so bold as to kill someone. It really proves the saying that you can't judge a book by its cover." The butler sighed.
Half an hour later, Prime Minister Zhou and his two companions escorted Prince Jin out of the Ministry of Justice.
Prime Minister Zhou and Censor Zhou left the Ministry of Justice one after another.
After a cup of tea, the two sat in a teahouse box again and drank by themselves.
"It's not easy to catch him." Censor Zhou said.
Both of them are smart people. Even if they can see the trick, without evidence, everything is in vain.
"No rush." Prime Minister Zhou said slowly.
"Prime Minister, do you think this matter is directed at us or at her?" asked Censor Zhou.
Prince Jin belongs to the Fourth Prince's faction, while the two old guys are neutral.
"I don't know." Prime Minister Zhou said straightforwardly.
The two of them sat for a while before leaving the teahouse. After they left, a man walked out of the room next to them. This man was surprisingly Anye.
I quietly left the teahouse in the dark night, as if I had been here before.
The next day, a group of fast horses hurried into Chang'an City and headed straight for Gu's Mansion.
The man dismounted and displayed a badge. The gatekeeper saw it and did not stop him. The man hurried into the mansion and headed towards the study.
"Requesting to see the young lady." The visitor showed Dongmei his badge.
After seeing the badge, Dongmei immediately took him into the study.
"Miss, someone is coming from Yanzhou."
Gu Pianran waved goodbye and Dongmei left.
"What happened?" Gu Pianran asked.
The person who came reported: "Miss, Gu Yun was arrested by the Yanzhou prefect."
"What were you arrested for?"
"He said he stole the innkeeper's wife's personal belongings and was caught red-handed by a flower thief."
Gu Pianran frowned. It was impossible to create malaria in Yanzhou area.
"Tomorrow you and Manager Qian will go to Yanzhou to redeem him. Today you can have a good rest."
