Chapter 165: War of Words
"This person probably wanted to report to the police, but was sniped and attacked. The disciple picked up his weapon and fought the assassin, which led to this incident."
Hearing this, Duke Zheng glanced at Qin Wuyu.
"Master Qin is not deaf?"
"What are you talking about, Duke?" Feeling the sarcasm from Zheng Yannian, Qin Wuyu raised his head provocatively. When their eyes met, there seemed to be a flash of lightning.
Zheng Yannian sneered, "Is your evidence truly conclusive? He is my most prized student. I guarantee with my reputation and life that he will do no evil."
Qin Wuyu was obviously well prepared, and he even expected the riot that would happen today.
Hearing what Duke Zheng said, Qin Wuyu knelt before him. "Are you trying to force your case, Duke? Honestly, even if he wasn't the murderer, he was still exiled by the court. Where did the court exile his family to? Why is he here alone? This is disobeying the imperial order, and still a serious crime of treason, isn't it?"
Qin Wuyu is waiting for Zheng Yannian here.
Zheng Yannian laughed heartily and pointed at Gu Tingchuan. "Achuan is my last disciple. The Gu family you want to capture are all native to the Imperial Capital, but I, Achuan, am from Tarim near the Lancang River. It's completely irrelevant."
"So, Duke Zheng is very familiar with this person?"
Qin Wuyu had no intention of letting them go.
Zheng Yannian said sternly, "Of course I know everything. Otherwise, do you think anyone could be my disciple? With my training, he will surely become an outstanding hero. What's the matter, Lord Qin? Are you trying to embarrass me?"
Zheng Yannian looked at Qin Wuyu arrogantly.
Qin Wuyu seemed to be prepared.
He clicked his tongue impolitely, a gleam of provocation in his eyes.
Zheng Yannian remained unmoved.
He had seen countless villains, some of whom were more sinister and cunning than Qin Wuyu. When Qin Wuyu saw that Zheng Yannian responded to all changes with the same attitude, he thought he was scared.
"Duke Zhenguo, the Ah Chuan you're referring to is indeed the exiled Gu Tingchuan. He's a swindler, so he has many names. When he was in the army, he called himself 'Gu Xiaoshan,' and now that he's with you, he's calling himself 'A Chuan.' But he's always the same, Gu Tingchuan."
"My words are not enough. I need to find a few people to prove it."
Gu Feixue watched from a distance, not knowing what else Qin Wuyu was up to.
She clenched her fists, very anxious.
This matter needs to be resolved quickly, otherwise there will be more trouble later.
If Yuchi She's men came, I'm afraid Duke Zheng would have nothing to say.
After all, there is a law in our country that "it is better to kill a thousand people by mistake than to let one go."
At this moment, two people appeared in the corner.
Gu Feixue took a look and saw that the man with a wretched face in the lead was Qian Youliang, and the man behind Qian Youliang was Wang Mazi.
It turned out that Qin Wu Yu had arranged everything.
When she opened a shop here before, Qian Youliang and Wang Mazi interfered and were very annoying.
At this moment, Qian Youliang stood up leisurely, saluted Zheng Yannian, and signaled the people not to make a noise.
Then, Wang Mazi also smiled and squinted his eyes.
These two guys cherish the opportunity to show themselves in public provided by Qin Wuyu.
"Everyone, please be patient. I, Qian Youliang, can prove that this Ah Chuan is Gu Tingchuan himself. Back then..."
Qian Youliang said a lot of random things, and Gu Feixue gritted her teeth when she heard it.
As for Wang Mazi, he also muttered something. After he finished speaking, the two men left.
Zheng Yannian frowned. "That's just a resemblance in appearance. What other evidence is there?"
Qin Wuyu actually had some preparations. "Before, they signed their names at the court, and the handprints are clearly visible. Now let's do an experiment and ask you, Ah Chuan, to press a handprint as well. Wouldn't it be clear at a glance if we compare them?"
Gu Feixue was secretly surprised.
When the whole family was exiled, the court asked everyone to make a record. This palm print is unique. If we compare it now, there will be problems.
But what made Gu Feixue even more incredible was that these documents were originally secrets of the palace and were stored in the Ministry of Justice where they were never seen.
Qin Wu was no match for the local officials of Jiangzhou. How could he have such great power to get these things? There must be someone behind him.
Gu Feixue had investigated this before, and found that in this complicated mystery, the image of an opponent had become vaguely apparent.
Prime Minister Wei!
There is only one possibility for this matter, that is, Prime Minister Wei is behind the scenes fanning the flames.
Someone has approached Gu Tingchuan and insisted that Gu Tingchuan give him a palm print.
At this moment, Gu Feixue was also secretly anxious.
But just when the situation was at a juncture, there were sounds of beating gongs, drums and suonas. It turned out that a group of people suddenly appeared in the northwest of the execution ground. They were dressed in mourning. Gu Feixue saw that it was a funeral procession.
And in the room next to hers, Yuchi Shuo had already smiled. This was his final arrangement.
The team had a large population, which showed that the deceased was from a wealthy family.
The coffin of the deceased was also different from ordinary ones, and it seemed to be much larger.
At this time, the mourning man waved the soul-calling banner.
"Hey everyone, what are you doing here? My father is going to be buried in Beishan. The dead are the most important. What are you doing? Please move aside."
The audience in the audience saw how sadly the man was crying and knew that he was a filial and brotherly person, so they hurriedly made some distance away from him.
The group of people walked slowly towards the North Mountain.
At this moment, someone slammed the coffin lid hard, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
Gu Feixue, who was on the second floor, saw the group of woodcutters pull out weapons from the firewood, and saw the man pushing the chicken bus take off his hat and take out the hidden smoke pills.
This smoke ball is made of sulfur mixed with reed hair. Once it is lit and thrown on the spot, it will immediately create chaos.
In the instant that no one had time to react, the smoke balls had already fallen onto the platform with a bang.
Suddenly there was a huge billowing smoke.
Immediately afterwards, the noisy man and woman also took out their weapons.
Gu Feixue saw someone opened the lid of the coffin. There was no body in the coffin, but weapons. Everyone took out weapons one by one and soon started fighting with the soldiers.
Seeing the chaotic scene, Gu Feixue went downstairs to look for Gu Tingchuan and Rong Qi, but they had disappeared.
At this moment, Yuchi Shuo saw Gu Feixue.
At first he thought he was seeing things, but after a closer look and confirming that it was indeed Gu Feixue, he hurriedly followed her, but after passing two alleys, there was no trace of her.
At this moment, Gu Feixue had already entered the range of the smoke ball. She coughed violently, and her brother and Rong Qi were no longer where they were just now. She guessed that this was arranged by her master, and hurried to find Zheng Yannian.
