Chapter 106: Reporting the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion

"Things that need to be resolved urgently? Are you talking about the visits from the princes of Dalin and Northern Qi? You don't have to worry about these. The motives of these two people's visit are not pure, but they dare not mess around in Jinxiu City." Gong Beixuan said.

“Not only this matter, I want to get rid of this big cancer, the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, before the envoys from Northern Qi and Dalin arrive.

Secondly, I have to attend the martial arts conference next month and find the Pan Ruosha sect and destroy it. Because these two families have an irreconcilable feud with me." She gritted her teeth and said the last few words.

Gu Zhan's matter concerned the death of her parents. She did not tell anyone except the few people she trusted most, including her grandfather, younger brother and Qi Sheng.

Now that Ke Cheng is back and all the evidence has been found, she doesn't want to wait any longer. But if she wants to uproot the Zhenguo Mansion, she still needs his help.

"You want to get rid of the Gu family?" Gong Beixuan's eyes had a strange light, "Do you have enough evidence?"

"Yes, there are witnesses and evidence."

Chu Feiyan helped him hang up the wedding dress and put it away. Then she turned her back to him and took out the secret letters and the confession that Ke Chenggang had brought back from the space and showed them to him.

Gong Beixuan read the secret letter and confession one by one, his expression was more shocked than ever before, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes, "In this case, our marriage will be postponed, and we will go to the palace to find the prince now."

"That's exactly what I meant." Chu Feiyan nodded.

The prince has been secretly investigating the case of the Duke of Zhenguo embezzling military pay, but the people of the Gu family are too cruel and omnipotent. They secretly sent people to kill all the people sent by the court. In the end, no one dared to investigate the Gu family's case.

The two of them packed up and went into the palace to meet the prince.

When the prince saw the evidence, which was full of crimes committed by the Gu father and son, he was both angry and excited.

He sent out so many experts to investigate the issue of military pay, but none of them came back alive. Unexpectedly, Chu Feiyan did it in just a few months.

Moreover, the deaths of General Chu and the eldest princess were actually related to Gu Zhan!

"The Gu family is so daring that they actually plotted to murder the princess and the general. This time, I will make the Gu family pay with blood."

The next morning.

In the court, the prince accused the Duke of Zhenguo Gu Zhan and his son Gu Qingshan of embezzling military pay and other crimes.

There was an uproar in the court, and everyone was talking about it.

Some officials expressed doubts about the prince's words, especially Long Shiyu's followers, who did not believe it at all.

There are few officials in the court who have clean hands. The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion has been standing for more than a hundred years. Its power is deeply rooted in the court. It is very careful in what it says and does. Even emperors of successive dynasties are a little afraid of it. With the prince's ability, it is not so easy to find any handle on the Gu family.

“Your Highness, everything must be based on evidence.” Gu Qingshan looked calm, but he was already panicking inside.

"You want evidence, right?" The prince took out the secret letters given by Chu Feiyan and a thick stack of account books, which clearly recorded every amount of embezzled money and its destination.

When Gu Qingshan saw those account books and letters, his legs suddenly went weak. The Gu family was really going to be finished!

It turned out that his father's secret room was stolen by the prince's men! No wonder he was unwilling to seal off the city and search that day.

Damn it, they underestimated this prince!

"My fellow ministers, this is the ironclad evidence that the Duke of Zhenguo embezzled military pay!" The prince's angry voice echoed in the court, with a hint of imperial majesty.

“Your Highness, this is unfair!” Gu Qingshan knelt down and cried out, “The Zhenguo Mansion is upright and honest, and would never do such a thing. Someone must have deliberately framed my father. I hope Your Highness will investigate this matter!”

“Framed you? Gu Qingshan! Now the evidence is irrefutable. There is no room for your Gu family to quibble.” The prince walked down the steps and circulated the account books and letters to the ministers for their perusal.

The ministers looked at the astonishing figures written in the account book and could not help but gasp in shock.

"The Duke of Zhenguo is an important official in the court! How could he do such a corrupt and lawless thing?" an official was very angry.

"The Gu family is truly omnipotent. Not only did they falsely report the number of soldiers, eat up empty quotas, and buy and sell official positions, but when distributing pensions, military pay, and subsidies, they did not pay them according to the amount stipulated by the court, and deducted the amount with various excuses and kept it for themselves."

A minister from the Gu family faction stood up and said, "Your Highness, this matter is of great importance. The Duke of Zhenguo is a veteran of three dynasties. It is impossible for him to do such a thing. Perhaps he was framed. We need to investigate carefully."

“Humph! Take a look at these account books and letters. They are printed with Gu Zhan and Gu Qingshan’s personal seals. Could they be fake?” The prince asked coldly.

Prime Minister Hong said, "Your Highness, since the evidence is irrefutable, let's investigate it thoroughly!"

"What the Prime Minister said is absolutely right." The prince nodded and emphasized, "No matter what, the matter of the Duke of Zhenguo embezzling military funds must be thoroughly investigated and severely punished!"

The court suddenly fell into silence.

Most officials were gloating over the misfortune. They had long disliked the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and were eager for the Crown Prince to order the execution of all nine clans.

Those who have something to hide are worried that if the Gu family falls, they will also be implicated.

After these people had said enough, Chu Feiyan finally stood up, holding up a stack of confessions in his hand, "My Lords, the Gu family father and son not only took bribes and perverted the law, but also secretly colluded with King Cheng of Dalin State, and spent a lot of money to hire the Jianghu sect Pan Ruosha to assassinate the court officials.

Seven years ago, the reinforcements led by Gu Zhan were deliberately delayed on the road, resulting in Pingling Pass being besieged by the enemy for more than two months. My father and mother had no choice but to break out, but they were deliberately led into the enemy's ambush by the deputy general Gu Zhiyuan, resulting in all 5,000 people being shot and killed.

And this Gu Zhiyuan is the confidant that Gu Zhan planted next to my parents. Gu Zhan! He is the biggest culprit who plotted to murder my parents!"

Xiang He also helped the Gu family do a lot of bad things, but in order not to alert the enemy, Chu Feiyan did not expose this person for the time being.

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the hall again.

“Chu Feiyan, you are talking nonsense!” Gu Qingshan jumped up from the ground and pointed at her, “So it turned out that the person who robbed my Gu family’s storehouse that night was you!”

The thief that night was very skilled in martial arts. He even killed the undefeated assassins in the mansion with one blow. Only Chu Feiyan could do that!

"You dare to slander others when you are about to die!" Chu Feiyan looked at him with a sneer in her eyes. "If you don't want others to know, then you better not do it. Mr. Gu, your Zhenguo Mansion has relied on its power to do all kinds of bad things over the years, and now you should get retribution!"

Although it was obvious that she had stolen the Gu family's treasury, she would not admit it. Otherwise! With the emperor's greed, he might ask her to take out everything. She was not that stupid!

"Hiring someone to murder General Chu and the Princess? The people of the Gu family are completely devoid of conscience! This is unacceptable! Your Highness, the Crown Prince, you must bring this person to justice and punish him severely!"
