Chapter 238 She Just Pretending Not To Care
Shen Wei and Qi Si both looked at Gu Zhao in surprise: "Sir, it's this time, are you still thinking about the case?"
But thinking about it, this seems to be Gu Zhao's character.
Although she was a woman, she never slacked off when it came to business, and she never failed to complete the tasks assigned to her by the Control Division.
Shen Wei hesitated for a moment and asked, "As your lord said just now, this case seems to have been tacitly attributed to the prince. Is it necessary for your lord to continue the investigation?"
Just now, he said that he would give the prince a chance to get out of the town and ask for hush money to leave the town. But then he turned around and wanted to investigate the prince's murder case. Isn't this what he is doing against himself?
Gu Zhao said calmly, "With so many people dead, do you think it didn't happen just because the murderer might be the prince?"
"Lin Weikang killed the whole Fan family, I will arrest him and bring him to justice; if the prince really tortured and killed so many people, I will make him give an account."
"Even if I have to leave Shangjing, I still have to investigate this case."
"That's more than forty lives, not more than forty pieces of wood."
There was silence in the camp for a moment, and Qi Si was the first to express his agreement: "Your Excellency, you are right. Since this case is in our hands, we cannot give up halfway. There must be a result."
Lao Bai chuckled twice, "There are countless documents piled up in the He Control Department's warehouse that make the royal family more angry than this case. We have never been afraid."
Ning Xian, who was next to him, smiled even more obscenely than he did, "Then we should find out more. If it was really the prince who did it, wouldn't there be another excuse to make him pay more hush money?"
None of these guys are afraid of trouble.
Shen Wei didn't say anything more, but asked another question, "Sir, Duke Li... how to deal with it?"
Lin Weikang was back in Gu Zhao's hands again, which no one expected. Moreover, Lin Weikang still seemed a little delirious. Although he was locked up now, Shen Wei didn't know how to treat him.
Gu Zhao's face was a little cold, "Let him dry for a few days and then hand it over to the court."
She paused and then added, "He and I are already strangers, so we can handle his affairs as we should."
Shen Wei responded and went out to tell his men to go.
Not long after, he hurried back, his expression a little strange.
Qi Si asked casually, "What's wrong?"
"Lin Weikang is missing!" Shen Wei's face turned dark when he said it. "One of my brothers has also disappeared. He left me a message and asked someone to pass it on to me and give this to your Excellency."
He handed the wax pill in his hand to Gu Zhao.
Qin Xinglie reached out and took the wax pill, opened it carefully, checked that there was no problem, and then returned it to Gu Zhao.
In the wax pill is a piece of paper that says, "I took him away, just think he is really crazy. I didn't teach him well when he was a child. I will take good care of him in the future, and he will not do bad things again. Notorious." "
These lines are slightly sloppy and not very beautiful, and each word is tilted toward the upper right corner, as if little people are stretching their arms and exerting force in the same direction.
Although he had never seen He Zheng's calligraphy, Gu Zhao inexplicably felt that these words were very similar to He Zheng's style.
Gu Zhao let out a long breath.
Yes, He Zheng and Gu Zhao also discovered that Lin Weikang was not really crazy, he was just pretending.
Gu Zhao grabbed Lin Weikang's hand and heard his thoughts.
Lin Weikang did suffer a huge blow and lost his temper for a while, but after searching for He Zheng to no avail, he gradually sobered up.
It was just that he remembered that he was still burdened with multiple charges of treason and murder. He had finally escaped from the control of the court and could never be recaptured.
So I continued to pretend to be broken and crazy, looking for opportunities to escape from the camp.
Unexpectedly, he met Gu Zhao again and was arrested by Gu Zhao again.
At that time, listening to Lin Weikang's crazy cursing in his heart, Gu Zhao only felt funny in his heart.
He Zheng might as well take him away.
In the imperial tent at that time, Lin Weikang was probably the only one who was confused by the throne and did not realize that He Zheng no longer had any mother-son affection for him.
Emperor Shouzheng had been laughing at Lin Weikang, because he was so greedy that he was so blind that he actually thought that since he was He Zheng's only son, he should naturally have everything He Zheng had.
In the end, He Zheng just placed the tempting throne right under Lin Weikang's nose, turned around and threw it out of Lin Weikang's reach.
This is probably the best revenge for a cold-blooded villain like Lin Weikang who would rather betray his biological mother and abandon his biological daughter for the sake of wealth.
Gu Zhao believed that Lin Weikang would probably be more miserable alive than dead in the hands of He Zheng, because what He Zheng could give him was what he didn't want. And what he wanted, He Zheng wouldn't give at all.
Gu Zhao retracted his thoughts, folded this piece and put it into his sleeve, "Okay, Lin Weikang is taken care of now, so we don't need to worry about him anymore. Now let's continue to investigate the scene."
Qin Xinglie stood next to Gu Zhao. He was tall and he could clearly read the words on the note in Gu Zhao's hand just by lowering his head.
After Gu Zhao read the note, he folded it carefully and put it in his sleeve, which made Qin Xinglie feel a little sour.
Gu Zhao usually looks very strong and independent, and doesn't seem to care about the attitude of her biological parents at all, but small actions like this show that she actually still cares about family ties in her heart.
She cherished the note He Zheng left for her so much, let alone her parents? She just pretended not to care!
The previous turmoil in the camp was passed by without many people even feeling it.
