"Dang!"

In a suffocating silence, Gu Nan flipped his hand, and a shiny copper key, together with the previous model key, were thrown at Li Asuo's feet.

The keys made a clanging sound in mid-air, ringing crisply and sounding like a sneer.

Gu Nanyi said dryly at this time.

"Bullshit..."

Since he went to court, he has only said two words in response to the repeated accusations. He only said this because Peng Pei induced him to accuse Feng Zhiwei.

She talks little, but like Feng Zhiwei, she can be charming without words.

Li Asuo froze there, motionless like a wooden sculpture. He was a veteran, and he could tell with just one glance that the two keys were the same.

As soon as Peng Pei saw Li Asuo's straight-eyed expression, he knew something was wrong, but he still refused to believe it and did not dare to ask, asking him with his eyes.

Li Asuo's face was sallow, he couldn't help wiping his sweat and avoiding his gaze.

Peng Pei felt cold in his heart. He had never expected that Gu Nanyi had such a hand. He froze there. Seeing Ge Yuanxiang opening his mouth to ask Li Asuo, he became anxious and bold. He strode down from his seat and said with a vicious smile. : "Isn't the court a place for playing tricks? What kind of rotten thing is this?" He raised his foot to kick out the two keys.

As soon as he lifted his toes, Gu Nanyi raised his arm.

The sound of the heavy chains shocked Peng Pei, who was shocked and stiffened. He was afraid that Gu Nanyi would hit him again, so his toes suddenly stopped in mid-air. He lost his balance and fell backwards. Behind him was Feng Zhiwei.

Feng Zhiwei kept her body straight, quickly held his waist with quick eyes and hands, and said with a smile: "Sir, be careful." Then she gently helped him upright.

At this moment, Peng Pei's back was turned to everyone. Only Hua Qiong, who was leaning against the fence at the entrance of the courtroom, saw a flush on his face that disappeared instantly when Feng Zhiwei helped him over.

Hua Qiong's eyes flashed, revealing a hint of a formidable smile.

Peng Pei himself felt nothing. After standing upright, he immediately waved his sleeves to brush Feng Zhiwei away. He snorted coldly and turned away without thanking her. Feng Zhiwei didn't mind either and knelt back with a smile.

The moment she knelt back, she grabbed the two keys with her hands, held them in the direction of Ge Yuanxiang and Zhang Yong, and said: "Two adults, please take a look, your highnesses and Eunuch Jia, please take a look."

The second prince waved to the guards around him to pick him up. The guards next to Ning Yi suddenly strode forward and set off, but he was faster than others. He bumped his shoulders and knocked him away and caught him first.

Holding the keys in their hands, they passed them around one by one. The people present had good eyesight and could see that they were exactly the same, not to mention Li Asuo's ashen expression as proof.

The tenth prince was particularly active today. He held the key in his hand and showed it to Eunuch Jia in admiration, "Eunuch, look, it's really the same!"

Eunuch Jia put on his reading glasses tremblingly, squinted for a long time, and said with a smile: "I am old and can't see clearly, but it is like this, so I really can't see any difference."

As soon as these words came out, Peng Pei trembled.

Ning Yi took the key in his hand, looked at it again and again with a smile, then suddenly raised his hand and threw the key at Li Asuo's face.

"Cowardly untouchable!" he yelled angrily, "Since Mr. Gu has such wonderful skills, why does he need you to match the key? As soon as you introduced him to the nine-rate linen grassroots, you dared to falsely accuse the high officials of the court, and the nine tribes were implicated in public. I’m also treating you lightly!”

The yellow key flew through a golden arc in mid-air and hit Li Asuo on the face. His face was covered with blood with a sudden slap. However, Li Asuo had already been frightened out of his mind by the stern and angry rebuke of the prince. Where could he be? He knew it hurt, but he didn't dare to wipe the blood on his face. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed as if pounding garlic, saying in a trembling voice: "The grassroots people...the grassroots people are confused...the grassroots people are confused..."

He kept saying that he was confused, but he never admitted that he was falsely accused, let alone cried out that he was wronged. Ning Yi looked at him coldly and said solemnly: "Li Asuo, you and Mr. Gu are strangers, right?"

Li Asuo raised his tearful face and nodded hesitantly.

Ning Yi said calmly: "Since you don't know Mr. Gu, for no reason, you will never act willfully and commit this grave crime that is outraged by both humans and gods. You must have been entrusted by others due to feelings, or you may have been deceived by others and did it unintentionally. The so-called ignorance If you are not guilty, you will be punished for being disobedient. As long as you explain your difficulties clearly, I will deal with you leniently. Don't worry." After saying this, his voice rose and his tone was stern, "But if you are stubborn and stubbornly resist, If you have a country with clear laws and regulations, you should hold your head high!"

These words almost completely copied what Peng Pei had said before to induce Gu Nanyi to confess. Peng Pei's face turned green and red, and he was so embarrassed.

But this man is also a powerful character. Although he looked embarrassed, he immediately took advantage of the situation and took a step forward. He raised his foot and kicked Li Asuo, "You are a pariah, who ordered you to falsely accuse Mr. Gu? Why don't you do it from the truth!"

Li Asuo was kicked so hard that he rolled over and blood flowed from his forehead. He glanced at Peng Pei timidly, gritted his teeth, and kowtowed, "No...no! It's a grassroots...it's a grassroots who was once Mr. Gu kicked over the key stand and held a grudge... so... so he was so bold... to falsely accuse Mr. Gu!"

"You are just a pariah who randomly provides evidence for trivial matters!" Peng Pei immediately yelled.

Ge Yuanxiang and Zhang Yong looked at each other, coughed, and said, "Li Asuo, falsely accusing an official of a civilian position is a serious crime of beheading. You have to think clearly."

Li Asuo trembled all over and opened his mouth to speak. However, when he raised his eyes, he saw the corner of Peng Peishui and Jiang Ya's dark blue official robe. The bright color looked dark in his eyes at the moment, reminding him of the dark night. The frightened faces of his wife and children in his small courtyard... He suddenly trembled and leaned down again, "The common people... are guilty..."

Ning Yi suddenly said: "Li Asuo, tell me when, where and for what reason Master Gu kicked over your stall."

Li Asuo opened his mouth, not expecting to ask this question. He hesitated for a long time and hesitated: "I can't even remember it clearly. It seems to be last year... and it seems to be the year before last..."

Gu Nanyi suddenly said flatly: "I only arrived in the Imperial Capital the year before last."

"That was last year! Last year...spring!" Li Asuo's eyes lit up and he said loudly: "Last spring, he said that the grassroots' stalls were blocking his way, so he kicked over the grassroots' stalls and forced the grassroots to work hard. Many of the locks we made were broken by people stepping on them, ruining the business of ordinary people for half a month!"
