There was no emotion in Emperor Wu's eyes. He sat where he was, surrounded by a chilly aura.
Before long, there was the sound of a fierce fight in the distance.
Gu San's face turned pale when he heard the sounds of battle.
"Gu Xingyun, why are you shaking?" Emperor Wu stared at Gu San calmly and spoke in an indifferent tone.
However, the more nonchalant Emperor Wu was, the more Gu San trembled.
"I … I'm not … not shaking." Gu San took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"You're not scared at all that you're harboring a spy from an enemy country. I'm impressed," Emperor Wu said casually.
W- What?!
If the old lady was still alive, she would have jumped to her feet!
Harboring a spy from an enemy country?!
That was a serious crime!
This was a great crime of treason, the kind that could result in the execution of the whole family!
Gu San's heart almost jumped out of his throat. Forcing himself to calm down, he dropped to his knees in front of Emperor Wu and tried to explain himself. "Your Majesty, I'm not harboring a spy from Dong Sang. Your Majesty, even if I am, someone else framed me."
Gu Xingyun?! The other members of the Gu family stared at Gu Xingyun in a strange way, but Gu Xingyun was still in a daze!
"How did you know I was talking about a spy from Dong Sang? What if I was talking about another country? "Emperor Wu gave him a half-smile, but there was an indifferent look in his eyes.
"I …" Gu Xingyun was almost asked, but he reacted quickly and immediately said, "Previously, Your Majesty sent people to search for spies from Dong Sang Kingdom all over the city. I have an impression of them, so when Your Majesty mentioned spies, I automatically thought of spies from Dong Sang Kingdom, so …"
That explanation wasn't impossible, but …
"So, you knew that I was searching for spies from Dong Sang?"
Gu San's voice trembled with fear. "I … I knew …"
Emperor Wu smacked the table. "You knew, but you still harbored a spy. That's an unforgivable crime!"
Gu San blanched with fear. "Your Majesty, I really didn't …"
Just then, Feng Xun and Qin Yan hurried over.
Qin Yan was carrying someone else.
"Bang!" Qin Yan tossed the tied man in front of Emperor Wu and said, "He tried to fight back, but we caught him. He then tried to kill himself."
Emperor Wu stared at the person kneeling on the ground. It was a woman.
The woman looked to be in her twenties. Her eyes were beautiful beyond words, and the corners of her eyes were curved like a fox's, giving her a seductive look that could penetrate one's heart.
"A spy from Dongsang?" Emperor Wu frowned.
"Hahaha, Your Majesty must be joking. I'm from the Junwu Kingdom. When did I become a citizen of Dongsang? A spy from Dong Sang Kingdom? Why do you say that? "The woman giggled.
Gu San was even more agitated as he said, "Your Majesty, this woman is a dancer from Spring Fragrance Brothel, Lady Qingyang. She is not a spy from Dongsang Country."
There were even others who stood up to testify for Gu San.
"That's right, this is Spring Fragrance House's dancer, Lady Qing Yang. I've met her before."
"Miss Qingyang grew up in the Spring Fragrance Brothel, and this cannot be faked. How did she become a spy of Dong Sang Country?"
Many people in the crowd defended Miss Qingyang, for many of them had been to Spring Fragrance Brothel.
If it was proven that Miss Qingyang was a spy from Dong Sang Country, no one would be able to get away with it.
Emperor Wu glanced at Feng Xun.
