Chapter 167

Lu Xiaoyao came to the Southern Dynasty at the age of nine. Before that, there was no record in the Southern Dynasty.

Miraculously, she was escorted by the prime minister Lu Xiaoyao all the way from outside the Southern Dynasty to the Southern Dynasty.

At the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Gu Mu knew that Shen Ling was the real poisoner, and she used this to set the blame on the Minister of the Ministry of War who had already had a murderous intention towards Gu Mu.

This made the Minister of the Ministry of War commit suicide in the mansion that night.

Lu Xiaoyao took over this assassination mission because he accepted the mission from the Lord of Yin City to let them get close to the big fish.

Therefore, Lu Xiaoyao may not really have murderous intentions towards him.

"It's just that this Lu Xiaoyao is a duckweed-like figure at first glance. He only lives with her master, so why is he related to the prime minister?" Gu Mu held all the information about Lu Xiaoyao's second father. After reading it, throw it into the brazier and watch the materials burn to ashes.

Then he called Eunuch Cheng and walked towards the dungeon.

He wanted to interrogate Lu Xiaoyao himself.

In the dark dungeon, Lu Xiaoyao's hair is a little messy, he is a casual person in the world, unlike Ma Shishi, even if he is locked in the dungeon, he will make himself look charming.

Even Lu Xiaoyao's face was dirty, except for a pair of pupils, which still hid the expression.

Even so, she still looks very good-looking, she is the kind who sits on the street and sets up a bowl, and the bowl is full in an instant, and someone takes a photo and uploads it on the Internet, and then becomes popular on the Internet, and then signed by a brokerage company to become a big star Kind of nice.

She was lying on the bed with her legs crossed. When she heard the movement outside the door, she only squinted and glanced out, not even intending to sit up.

Until a jailer opens the cell door,

Lu Xiaoyao lazily supported his body with his hands, lifted it up halfway, turned around, and leaned against the wall.

"Shouldn't you be rude when you see His Majesty?" the jailer scolded.

As a result, Lu Xiaoyao was not frightened at all, she rolled her eyes: "He is a prisoner on death row, and they are all equal before life and death, why so many rules?"

Gu Mu waved his hand to let the jailer back down,
In the whole cell, only he and Lu Xiaoyao were left.

"So you are so sure that you are a death row prisoner?"

Gu Mu looked down at Lu Xiaoyao with a half-smile and asked.

At the beginning, he only said that he would put her in prison, but he didn't say that she was a death row prisoner.

Lu Xiaoyao raised his eyes halfway, even in the face of life and death, he still had a careless expression on his face: "It depends on who poisoned it, if someone else poisoned it, maybe His Majesty finds out the real culprit. If you know that I am wronged, you will let me go."

"But if it was His Majesty's own people who poisoned me, wouldn't I have to bear the blame and go to Hades?"

"According to what you said, do you know who administered the poison?" Gu Mu was a little surprised by what she said. He didn't expect Lu Xiaoyao to live quite clearly at such a young age.

He looked at Lu Xiaoyao.

She was expressionless and said lazily: "I saw it. Although the queen is very cautious, I am close and can see clearly."

"Just as I was approaching His Majesty, the princess raised her hand to take the fruit, and after she moved her hand away, there was more green liquid on the fruit."

"Since the Queen did it, and the purpose was not to poison His Majesty, then I can only find someone to take the blame. From this point of view, am I not a death row prisoner?"

Speaking of this, Lu Xiaoyao smiled,
A pair of eyes flashed a hint of sarcasm because of something he remembered.

"Tell me a joke, what I spent my whole life avoiding, turned out to be my final destination." When Lu Xiaoyao said this, he burst out laughing out of nowhere, and burst into tears.

Then she looked up.Looking at Gu Mu with a serious look for the first time, he said: "Your Majesty, to be honest, I don't want to die here at all. You came to my cell, you definitely didn't want to chat with me, tell me, why, as long as you keep me alive , maybe I’ll tell you everything I know.”

Gu Mu's expression twisted, so it is reasonable to say that this person is indebted.

Obviously she was begging him to spare her from dying.

As a result, it was indeed in such a tone that I was reluctant to negotiate a deal with you.

Gu Mu sighed, and asked, "What's your relationship with the prime minister?"

Lu Xiaoyao's expression froze for a moment, and then said: "The relationship between Qing and Qing."

"?"

"I have a person I know who was kind to him. In order to repay his kindness, he saved my life and took me to the Southern Dynasty. After that, he will be cleared up. Now he probably won't recognize me."

"Why do you pretend to be the cousin of the Minister of War?"

"For a deal, he lent me the steps so that I could meet the Holy Majesty, and if I become successful in the future, the Minister of the Ministry of War will naturally benefit as well." Lu Xiaoyao said seriously.

From this sentence, Gu Mu knew that Lu Xiaoyao was making up nonsense,
The truth is mixed, and it makes sense.

But besides asking Lu Xiaoyao, he can also ask the prime minister.

The incident happened suddenly, and the prime minister must have had no time to confess to Lu Xiaoyao. Comparing the two sides, the coincidence may be the answer Gu Mu wanted.

After leaving the dungeon,
He immediately drove to the prime minister's mansion.

Right now,

The prime minister was sighing in the mansion, and he asked with a gloomy face, "Did you find him?"

"My lord, I have searched everywhere in the mansion and the capital, but I still haven't found it."

"Where do you think Chao'er will go? Now that the whole process is under martial law, it is impossible for him to leave the city. He must still be in the capital!"

"Master, the bolt on the door of Second Young Master's room is disconnected, could it be someone?" asked one of the prime minister's concubines.

"Ah~" The prime minister sighed heavily again: "If I had known earlier, I would have made Chao'er like his sister You Ci'er, and let him learn a little martial arts since he was a child. Ability to protect yourself!"

"However, all the major mansions are being stared at by His Majesty's people, who is so bold as to dare to attack Chao'er at this time?"

As the prime minister spoke, his eyes turned red.

Gu Mu was outside the door, taking all of this into his eyes.

Originally, when he came in, there were servants in the mansion who wanted to report, but Gu Mu stopped him.

Gu Mu happened to see everything in front of him.

When he first wore it, it was easy to distinguish between a loyal minister and a treacherous minister, after all, he was wearing a small white letter.

But now after experiencing all kinds of intrigues and Oscar acting skills of female frequency texts,
Gu Mu was a little skeptical, was the prime minister's appearance sincere, or did he know that he was watching outside the door and did it on purpose?

Gu Mu stepped forward and walked into the room.

When the prime minister saw Gu Mu, he hurriedly got up to greet him.

A pair of old eyes, still with tears.

It wasn't until the two sat down to talk that the prime minister wiped away the tears from his eyes, and said forcefully, "Your Majesty, I heard that you have imposed a foot restraint on my daughter. If there is anything wrong with my daughter, I will apologize to your majesty." , It’s all old officials who can’t teach well.”

Hearing what the prime minister said, Gu Mu felt mixed feelings.

After all, the prime minister is his father-in-law. If in modern times, he locks up his wife and prevents her from going out, the old father-in-law would probably greet her with two big ears.

But now, he is really humble, blaming himself for not teaching well.
