Chapter 539 Special Status of Witnesses

Gu Zhao sneered, "Mr. Zhou Dan, you have thought about it. If you still want to use your life to frame me, I promise that your family will be executed. Your beloved young son will ask someone to ask him to be sent.

Sent to the palace to be a eunuch, your eldest son with a bright future, I will let him go to the Jiuquan to meet you."

"As for Lord Zhou, your wife and daughter, please send them to the Jiaofangsi bar. At that time, Lord Zhou's colleagues should go to communicate with them and mourn you together."

"How is it? Are you satisfied with this arrangement?"

Zhou Dan's eyes turned red and he stared at Gu Zhao fiercely, "Gu Zhao, you are also a woman, how can you say such cold-blooded, cruel and shameless words!"

Gu Zhao laughed out loud, "Hahaha, it's ridiculous! If you want to harm me, why don't you allow me to take revenge?"

"Do you think Gu Zhao, who has been walking along the way, depends on the appearance of a woman, or is he kind-hearted and ruthless?"

"It seems that you didn't check what I did before you plotted against me."

"Do you know how the Duke Li's Mansion collapsed?"

"Do you know how those people from Donghao mission died?"

"In recent years, I have lurked in the northern border and killed many Donghao noble generals. Have you heard of it?"

I really shouldn't have agreed to the Master! Gu Zhao doesn't look like a woman! She is simply a Yama! Zhou Dan wailed in his heart.

At this time, if he doesn't die, he is afraid that the people behind him will punish him; if he dies, he is afraid that Gu Zhao will really impose these revenge on his family.

Master Ge is not his family. He is dead, so it would be nice if Master Ge can fulfill his promise. How could he face Gu Zhao and Guan Chushi for his promise?

Gu Zhao heard that Zhou Dan had no intention of dying, so he snorted coldly and kicked him to kneel on the ground.

"Say! Who instructed you to plot against me? Are those Donghao spies who avenged the Donghao people who died in Douchuan Pass?"

Zhou Dan quickly shook his head and said, "Mr. Gu, this is not true!"

If he admits colluding with the spy of Dong Hao, he will be treason and will really implicate the Nine Clans.

Gu Zhao glanced at him deeply.

Who is the cabinet master behind Zhou Dan is the real key.

But Zhou Dan probably dared not say it.

Nowadays, so many people are still involved in Hu Siye's death, Gu Zhao decided to put this issue on hold for the time being.

She believed that when the old master saw Zhou Dan failing, he must do something to prevent Zhou Dan from calling him out.

As long as Gu Zhao keeps a close eye on Zhou Dan, he can follow the clues and find this cabinet master.

"Let's not talk about anything else, Lord Zhou, what's going on with Hu Siye's death?" Gu Zhao asked lightly.

Zhou Dan looked at Gu Zhao's face, climbed up carefully, slapped the stain on his body, "It was only after Chang Yangyuan sent someone to come over and the officials found out about this."

"Changyang Yuan belongs to Changyang County. When a murder occurred, even if the subordinate officials have a jurisdiction, the subordinate officials have to come to investigate and deal with it."

Zhou Dan was looking for a way out in his mind. How could he save his whole family? If he dies now, it will not work.

But Gu Zhao seemed to have forgotten what had just happened and asked calmly, "What did Lord Zhou find out?"

Zhou Dan was scared by Gu Zhao and couldn't help but answer, "As I said just now, a witness witness witnessed Hu Siye being pushed into the lake with his own eyes, so Hu Siye was killed."

Then he led people to search around and found Gu Zhao who was alone.

"Where is the witness?" Gu Zhao asked lightly.

If Gu Zhao had just suspected that this was a conspiracy before, she could now be sure that Hu Ying's death and Zhou Dan almost committed suicide were both traps designed for her.

Then the witness who claimed to have seen Hu Ying being pushed into the water was very similar to him, and he must have prepared specifically to frame her.

This witness is definitely the same person as the cabinet master.

Gu Zhao wanted to meet the witness in person to see if he could hear more inside information from his voice and determine the identity of the cabinet master.

Zhou Dan hesitated for a moment.

Gu Zhao raised his eyes and looked at him coldly. Zhou Dan shivered and hurriedly said, "Witness, special identity, just rest in the house there."

Gu Zhao raised his eyebrows, "Then I'll bother Lord Zhou, please come over and let me see it."

Zhou Dan didn't dare to say much, so he quickly sent someone to the room at the foot of the mountain to invite someone over.

The soldiers and yamen runners around looked at Zhou Dan in shock. Even the stupidest person could see Zhou Dan's guilt and fear.

Then what happened before was obviously as Gu Zhao said, Zhou Dan was slandering her.

This made everyone's eyes change when they looked at Zhou Dan. They were so angry just now that they wanted to seek justice for him, but they were deceived?

And when they looked at Gu Zhao's slender and tall figure, their eyes became awe and blamed.

If Lord Gu hadn’t been smart and witty, they would have become Zhou Dan’s accomplices and helped the bad guys to frame the Bei’an hero who had just made great contributions!

But Gu Zhao didn't care about the eyes of the people around her. She had already taken Zhou Dan to the place where Hu Ying fell into the water.

"It's here." Zhou Dan pointed to a piece of area by the lake, "It was from here that Hu Siye fell into the water."

Gu Zhao has a good eye and can see a few rows of very obvious footprints left on the aquatic plants by the lake. These footprints lead to a stone in the water ahead.

These footprints should be Hu Ying's own, as well as those of later coroners and constables.

Hu Ying's body was lying on the ground by the lake.

His goatee was soaked in water and was sparsely attached to his chin and neck.
