The daily life of the little princess of the royal group
Chapter 173 Not admitting it was his fault
Since then, Gao Chuan's prison life has improved visibly.
Although there is no evidence to prove that what he said is true, people are always like this and will send friendly signals to those who look pitiful.
Following the clues provided by Gao Chuan, Wen Xun quickly found Gao Tianba and his mother, as well as an old man with broken legs, on a small hill near Gao Village in Beijing.
In the interrogation room, Gao Tianba was very unstable and struggled violently, and the chains used to tie him up clanged.
Even before Wen Xun arrived, the jailers hated him. They had secretly locked him in the dirtiest, most airtight cell. Seeing him still roaring crazily, they took a large iron bar and hit him, "Be quiet!"
Gao Tianba was also a paper tiger. Once someone threatened him, he would immediately become weak.
Before Wen Xun came, he thought he would meet a man of the same body shape as Gao Chuan, but he didn't expect that this man was so skinny, and it even seemed like he had seen him somewhere before.
Isn't this the guy with pockmarks on his face who was hiding in the crowd and watching Gao Chuan blackmail people?
Wen Xun laughed out loud, "So you were hiding in the crowd that day because you wanted to see Gao Chuan being arrested with your own eyes?"
Gao Tianba just looked at Wen Xun viciously. He thought, as long as I don’t admit it, what can the other party do to me?
Unfortunately, he underestimated Wen Xun's methods and overestimated his own willpower.
The red-hot iron sizzled as it hit the air. Just as it was about to reach his cheek, Gao Tianba was so frightened that he lost control of his bladder. "No, no, no, no, no, I'm telling you, tell me, tell me!"
Wen Xun quickly threw away the iron block and jumped five meters away, "Lu Jingchen! Go and interrogate him!"
"Hey!" The big guy covered his mouth and nose with a piece of cloth, picked up the iron block on the ground, and smiled evilly. "If you don't tell the truth, you will turn into a cooked meat pie~"
Gao Tianba immediately spoke up, "Yes, yes, yes! I am Gao Tianba, and I did all those bad things, but my brother volunteered to die for me. Can you be flexible?"
"Money! I have plenty of money! I'll give it all to you, all to you, please, be flexible!"
Lu Jingchen turned to look at Wen Xun, and saw that the other party gave him a look. He knew that he should agree with what he said.
"Accommodate? That depends on your sincerity."
Gao Tianba's eyes lit up instantly, "I am sincere, I am sincere, what do you want? As long as I have it, I will give it to you."
"No, I can get what I don't have!"
Lu Jingchen took out the notes in his arms and asked about the situation of the Shanzhou officials one by one.
Fortunately, although Gao Tianba did not take care of government affairs, he was very concerned about these things like buying and selling official positions and bending the law for personal gain. He remembered every person who came to him for help, and he also remembered the conditions they offered, whether it was gold, silver, jewelry, or luxury cars and beautiful women.
Seeing Lu Jingchen's growing interest, Gao Tianba instantly felt a surge of pride. "Sir, when I get out, I'll do some work for you! I'm quite good at this."
But who would have thought that the next moment, Lu Jingchen changed his expression and looked at Wen Xun respectfully.
Only then did Gao Tianba notice that there was a person standing far away from him, who was obviously the leader here.
He was about to try to bribe Wen Xun with his tricks, but he just turned around and left quickly, leaving behind a sentence, "Clean up and lock him up."
Meanwhile, the mother of the Gaochuan brothers was also imprisoned in a women's prison. Gao Tianba's current state was closely related to her upbringing.
Madam Gao, once a very famous lady in Shanzhou and the mother of Prefect Gao, was the object of many people's admiration. But now, she looks as haggard as a sixty-year-old woman.
It seems that during this period of life on the run, the mother and son were very ruthless in order to avoid being hunted by the officers and soldiers.
During the interrogation, she was unwilling to admit that the person who did all the bad things was her eldest son, or rather, she always knew these things but still favored her eldest son.
Wen Xun was helpless in the face of such a stubborn old woman. Suddenly, he remembered what Mingyue had said to him earlier, and he thought of giving it a try. "Madam Gao, you are so partial to your eldest son, and your attitude towards your youngest son is even worse than that towards outsiders. Don't you feel guilty towards your youngest son over the years?"
"Oh, he's a born bad seed. How can he be the same as my precious son?"
"Hurry up and arrest him! He's the one who did all those bad things. My son is the prefect of Shanzhou. He was the first person in Shanzhou to pass the imperial examination before he was 20 years old."
"My son had a bright future ahead of him, and it's all because of him, that bastard! He's the one who brought my son to this point!"
"That old Taoist priest was right. Haha, this calamity star, could it be the reincarnation of some demon child? He killed his father and wants to kill me and his brother too."
Wen Xun looked at the emotionally broken woman in front of him and found it hard to imagine that it was this woman who had mentally suppressed Gao Chuan for more than 30 years.
He recalled Mingyue's previous "Kite" case and how he had acted strangely when facing the victim's parents. He began to imitate her, "The old Taoist priest only said that one of them was a disaster star, but he didn't say which one."
"It's obviously Gao Chuan. He caused a difficult labor and my early widowhood. My baby was born with a purple complexion, not at all as plump and cute as my eldest son."
Wen Xun shook her head. "Have you ever considered that your husband died because you took the initiative to go to the mountains to give birth without a midwife?"
"Have you ever thought that it was your eldest son who competed for nutrition from his younger brother while he was in your womb, so he was born fat and white, while your younger son was skinny and weak?"
"Have you ever considered that you used up all your energy trying to give birth to your older son, so much so that you couldn't even give birth to a smaller baby?"
"I guess you have thought about it, but you never admit your mistakes."
"You dare not admit that it was your fault that led to your husband's death. You dare not admit that the child you have neglected for so many years is the reincarnation of the powerful being the Taoist priest said you should treat well."
Before Wen Xun finished speaking, the old lady Gao opposite her had already covered her face and cried.
At this time, Gao Chuan was in the cell next door. He heard their conversation and his mother's loud sobbing. He instantly felt relieved, as if the shackles that had been on him for many years were broken.
The next moment, he fainted.
The case was finally successfully closed with the beheading of Gao Tianba and Old Lady Gao, as well as the downfall of a series of officials.
No one expected that the sensational Shanzhou case actually started with a case of blackmail.
This not only made the Lin's Antique Shop a hit, but also boosted the reputation of the key player, Princess Mingzhu. After all, everyone knew that the real Gao Tianba was the first to discover it.
As a result, a trend of "Trust the princess and you will gain eternal life" swept through the capital.
As for Gao Chuan, when he woke up again...
