  Chapter 211 Using body as bait

  The shadow of Jin Linwei can be seen everywhere on the street, but it happened after Gu Changbo's accident, which made Baiguan Xungui have many speculations about Gu Changbo's death.

  The street where Guchangbo’s Mansion is located is completely white, with the sound of mourning and music.

   Mrs. Gu Changbo endured grief and panic to manage the funeral, and Dai Ze, who was titled the No. 1 rich man in the capital, seemed much more sensible.

  Until he heard that Ms. Kou from Qingsong Bookstore sent someone to send a sacrifice.

   "Miss Kou—" Dai Ze murmured, and suddenly jumped up, "Mother, I have something to go out!"

   Mrs. Gu Changbo asked hoarsely, "Where are you going?"

   "There is something urgent, come back soon!"

  Dai Ze was still wearing filial piety, but ran out regardless.

  The steward chased after the reminder, Dai Ze took off his filial piety hat and rode away.

  At this time, there were also some people who came to express their condolences. Seeing this scene, they looked at each other with a meaning in their eyes: there is such a dude, Guchangbo’s mansion will be destroyed.

  However, this is just a feeling for Guchang Bo's son being so generous. Guchang Bo's mansion is not so easy to fall, after all, there is still King Qing.

  Daize didn't think so much, he only knew that his father died inexplicably, and Ms. Kou is a capable person, maybe she can clear up his doubts.

  He rode his horse and galloped to Qingsong Bookstore.

  It was still early in the morning, not long after the bookstore opened, Shi Shi walked out with a broom, and almost collided with Dai Ze who ran in.

   "Where's Miss Kou?" Dai Ze asked, grabbing Shi Shi's skirt.

  Shitou was dumbfounded: "Mr. Dai?"

  Liu Zhou rushed over when he heard the movement: "Mr. Dai, are you looking for our boss? Shitou, go and call the boss here."

   Dai Ze let go of his hand, and the stone was freed and ran away quickly.

   Shopkeeper Hu also surrounded him: "Mr. Dai, please sit down."

   Originally, they had seen too many sons of wealthy families, so they wouldn't be so cautious. But Mr. Dai just died, what if he goes crazy?

   Fortunately, Xinyou came over not long after.

   "Master Dai—"

  Dai Ze rushed over and grabbed Xin You's wrist: "Miss Kou, I have something to ask you!"

  Xin You's eyes fell on the boy's hand holding her wrist, and she wasn't annoyed: "Then let's talk in the reception room."

  In the reception room, the apricot blossoms in the big belly blue vase were replaced by wild cherry blossoms, and spring is everywhere.

  Xin You spoke first: "I've heard about your mansion. My condolences to Mr. Dai."

  Dai Ze couldn't listen to such polite words at all, stared at Xin You and asked, "Miss Kou, don't you know how to read a physiognomy? Can you see why my father was killed?"

  In the past few days, he has been in a daze, as if in a dream, and he doesn't believe that his father is dead at all.

  How could it be? Before entering the palace, his father scolded him, just like many times before.

  But this time, it was the father's body that came back.

  Xin You took a careful look at Dai Ze, with a strange look on her face, but she shook her head: "I, a little girl, can't talk about matters of the Tian family."

  Dai Ze noticed the strangeness of the girl opposite, and became excited: "Miss Kou, did you see something? You must have seen it! Tell me, I promise not to talk nonsense!"

   In front of Xin You, the teenager burst into tears.

  Xin You hesitated.

   "Miss Kou, I beg you!" Dai Ze's eyes were red, and he was so crazy that he would not stop until he reached his goal.

  Xin You was shaken, and finally said: "From Mr. Dai's face, I can only see that something happened to Ling Xianzun—"

   "What is it about?" Dazzle asked nervously.

  Xin You showed embarrassment: "I told you, Mr. Dai probably won't believe it."

   "You say so!"

   "Related to His Royal Highness King Qing."

  Daize's first reaction was impossible: "How could my cousin harm my father!"

  Xin You's tone was calm: "It's not that His Highness King Qing harmed Ling Xianzun, but that it was related to him."

   "What is that for?" Daize heaved a sigh of relief.

  He couldn't accept the possibility that his cousin killed his father at all.

  Xin You shook her head slightly: "I can see this because Mr. Dai and Ling Xianzun are blood relatives. As for why it is related to His Highness King Qing, I can't tell from your face."

   "I can't tell—" Dai Ze's eyes suddenly lit up, "Then what if I show my cousin a picture? Will you see it?"

   "This—" Xin You frowned, "I don't know. Besides, His Highness King Qing wouldn't believe this..."

  Daize left, just like when he came, he left in a hurry.

  Xin You stood outside Qingsong Bookstore, watching the galloping young man disappear from sight with a blank expression.

  The bait has been cast, will it attract that fish?

  Xin You is quite confident about this.

  The death of Uncle Gu Chang had a great impact on Queen Qing's mother and son. If King Qing didn't know, he would be no less eager to know the truth than Dai Ze. If he knew, how could he be indifferent to her who said this.

  Dai Ze went straight to Prince Qing's Mansion.

  Gu Changbo is King Qing's uncle, no matter what taboos he committed against Emperor Xing Yuan, King Qing could not stay out of the matter, otherwise it would make people talk too coldly. In the past few days, King Qing went to Guchangbo Mansion in the morning, and returned to the mansion when it was dark.

  At this moment, King Qing was about to go out, when he saw Dai Ze, he was shocked: "Cousin, why are you here?"

   "Cousin, I have something to tell you." Dai Ze swept away the people following King Qing with a solemn expression.

  King Qing waved his hand to signal the waiters to step back: "What do you want to say, cousin?"

   "Do you know what happened to my father?"

  King Qing's expression froze, and his tone was warning: "I don't know. Cousin, I don't care what you usually do. Don't mess around at this time."

  He was already terrified by his uncle's sudden murder and couldn't sleep at night. If his cousin made any troubles, it would be a disaster for him.

   "Miss Kou might know." Dai Ze lowered his voice.

   "Who?" King Qing asked in a shout, with blue veins popping out of his forehead.

   "Miss Kou."

  King Qing stared closely at Daize: "Cousin, this is not the time for joking."

"I didn't! Cousin, haven't you heard that Ms. Kou knows how to look at faces? Before the earthquake in Beiloufang area, so many people survived because Ms. Kou saw that a prison student in the Imperial College had a **** disaster, and that student lived there." In Beiloufang…”

  After hearing what Dai Ze said, King Qing felt it was absurd: "Do you also believe such bizarre rumors?"

"Of course it's not the only thing. Cousin knows about Zhang Xu, right? He gets beaten every month because he failed the exam. Years ago, she went to Ms. Kou to see her. Ms. Kou said that he wouldn't get beaten in this monthly exam. Guess what? Zhang Shoufu was too busy to go home because of the disaster in Dingbei, he really escaped..."

  Prince Qing still didn't believe it, but Dai Ze's words didn't seem to be fabricated, so he asked: "Even if Miss Kou really has this ability, my cousin just asked her to see, what did you come to the palace for?"

  Daze paused for a moment, with a heavy expression on his face: "I've searched, Miss Kou found out that my father's accident is related to my cousin..."

   King Qing's eyes tightened, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Why is it related to me?"

  Dai Ze didn't see the killing intent in King Qing's eyes, and said to himself: "She can't see much from my face. If my cousin asks her to take a look—"

"shut up!"

   King Qing shouted, Dai Ze froze.
