Chapter 491: The Water Gradually Falls
As soon as Princess Zhen said this, Gan Peilin was already suspicious.
Even if Mo Chuxue didn't ask her, she was ready to remind one or two. "This person must be quite familiar with the Prime Minister's Mansion and Jiang Yu. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known that the guards of the Jiang Mansion were lax, and he wouldn't have thought of using such a roundabout way to calculate the Prime Minister's Mansion. β
"yes." Mo Chuxue nodded again and again: "It must be like this, he deliberately used me who had just entered the Prime Minister's Mansion to design this matter." Your Royal Highness King Qin, I really haven't done it, you believe me! β
"So who do you think has what it takes?" Su Qizhe was full of concerns: "Do you already have a suitable candidate in mind?" β
When he asked this, he really stopped Gan Peilin.
Gan Peilin does have the object of suspicion.
One is Wu Wei, who was cornered by Jiang Yu and struggled to support himself in Wuhan Peak but had to venture into the imperial city to save his father.
There is another one, Ao Min, who has been hiding in the shadows and resents them and Ao Su for some reason.
These two people are well aware of the affairs of the Xiangfu and the Jiang Mansion, and they can easily accomplish such things. But right now, Gan Peilin has no evidence, and if he says it rashly, he will only startle the snake.
"What? Who is Madame trying to protect? Su Qizhe was slightly displeased.
"It's not." Gan Peilin sank his heart a little and said, "Instead of you coming to ask me, it is better for you to ask her." In addition to knowing Jiang Mansion and Xiangfu, and knowing my husband, this person must also know Mo Chuxue very well. Knowing that she likes apricot blossoms, and knowing that she will do it, I saw the right time in advance. So, if you come to ask me, you might as well ask her. Look at who she's targeting! β
As soon as Gan Peilin said this, Mo Chuxue's face really changed.
"I ...... I don't really know...... I didn't ......" Mo Chuxue shook her head again and again: "Who can I tell?" What do you mean by that? Or doubt me? β
She stammered and had betrayed her.
Su Qizhe knew it in his heart, and gave an order with one look.
The guard's sword stabbed at Mo Chuxue again.
Before the blade even touched her, she was already screaming in fright.
This kind of Mo Chuxue is not the same person as Mo Chuxue who stood on the high stairs that day!
Gan Peilin looked at her, sad from his heart. The arrogant man who wanted Ao Jue to finish off their mother and son's Mo Chuxue, probably without Ao Jue's favor, there would be nothing, right?
The people outside Su Qizhe hurriedly came in, saluted him, and stepped forward to listen to him.
Seeing him muttering a few words in his ear, Su Qizhe's face changed, and he guessed that it must be that the matter in the palace has not been resolved. Jiang Yu has not heard from him for so long, it seems that something big has happened.
Gan Peilin's heart was beating suddenly, and he was very uneasy.
"I'm going to be busy with other things, so you can watch it here." Su Qizhe glanced at Mo Chuxue coldly: "It's okay if she doesn't say it." The Prime Minister must have his own private prison. If she doesn't say it, let her suffer a little. β
"Yes." The entourage who carried the sword responded, and when Su Qizhe turned to leave, he took the sword and let people drag the first snow down.
"Let go of me, you let go of me......" Mo Chuxue struggled desperately: "Gan Peilin, are you just standing by?" Do you know why Jiang Yu is the daughter of the Kenna Cao family? That's because what he wants is in Cao Taishou's hands. Do you still want Jiang Yu to live? β
"What did you say?" Gan Peilin looked at Mo Chuxue with some surprise: "What does Jiang Yu want, in Cao Taishou?" β
"Naturally, it's something that proves his identity." Mo Chuxue gritted her teeth and replied.
"I can't complain that you don't even wait for Ao Sue, and you are willing to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to be small." Gan Peilin snorted lightly: "It turned out to be for this!" β
"I'm not!" Mo Chuxue no longer had the heart to quarrel with her: "Madam, no, Sister Peilin, please, remember the love of the past, save me." Anyway, we grew up together......"
"Say whatever you know, and they won't embarrass you." Gan Peilin frowned slightly: "I'm not physically strong, so I won't accompany me." β
She got up, and when she saw the guard draw his sword again, she frowned in displeasure.
"This is the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Madame can go wherever she wants." The swallow stepped forward and drew the sword in his hand as well. "If anyone stands in the way, I will kill him."
"Madame will not leave the Prime Minister's Mansion." Liulan also stepped forward quickly: "If you want to check, you can check, and if you want to ask, you can ask, but if anyone disturbs Madame's recuperation, don't blame the sword in our hand and don't recognize anyone." β
Out of the wing, Gan Peilin asked Yanzi in a low voice: "Isn't there any news from Jiang Yu yet?" β
"Nope." Yanzi was also extremely anxious: "Even His Royal Highness King Qin is gone, there must be something wrong!" β
"Possibly, success or failure is here." Gan Peilin seemed to smell the blood in the wind: "The husband will either become a prisoner or rise to the top, before dawn, in the darkest hour, we have to be more cautious." Where is Xu Baisen? I want to see him! β
"The slave managed to contact Xu Gongzi." The swallow saluted and retreated.
"Ma'am." Chen Rui hurriedly came in, his face was a little bad: "Some people from the Tsing Yi faction have entered the palace." β
"How do you know?" Gan Peilin couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't the Prime Minister's Mansion blocked from the news?" Didn't everything in the palace come out? β
"Someone wants to see you." Chen Rui lowered his eyebrows and said.
"Who?" Gan Peilin asked a little vigilantly.
"It's me." Wu Wei's voice was not loud, but it was very familiar to Gan Peilin, so he recognized it immediately.
He wore a black cloak, shielded his face, and walked briskly to this side.
"You're hurt, how are you doing?" Wu Wei took off the hat attached to the cloak and asked worriedly.
"Isn't that standing right in front of you?" Gan Peilin was very dissatisfied with his sudden visit, and could even feel that he and Su Qizhe had reached some kind of consensus. Otherwise, how could Su Qi Zhe let him enter the mansion.
"I have something to say to you alone." Wu Wei's tone carried a hint of pleading.
"Okay." Gan Peilin didn't refuse, she really wanted to know what Wu Wei was going to do!
Entering the flower hall of the side hall, Liulan specially served fragrant tea.
Gan Peilin sat down by himself, picked up the teacup, and took a sip gently.
"The doctor has told me, and you've been checking on my news. He also secretly did a lot of things to help me escape from the Five Cold Peaks. Peilin, thank you. When Wu Wei said this, he was obviously a little excited: "I always thought that you didn't care about me, but I didn't expect that when I was in danger and my life was at stake, you were willing to do so many things for me." β
"When the two armies clashed, you trapped my husband and King Yeqing in danger. You also suddenly lost the opportunity to let me go. It was only step by step that it led to today's situation. I help you, all for the purpose of repaying the day, nothing else. I hope you don't get me wrong. Gan Peilin's voice was not loud, and his face was not good.
Wu Wei smiled bitterly and nodded again and again: "Yes, now your identity is still the prime minister's wife." What you say, of course, must be in line with your identity. β
"Or else?" A trace of coldness flashed in Gan Peilin's eyes.
"Wait until you get the letter of resignation given to you by Jiang Yu, and completely disassociate yourself from him." Wu Wei raised his chin slightly: "Let's talk about our business." β
"......" Gan Peilin thought that he would experience life and death and would grow a little. It's still a clichΓ©.
In this way, she didn't want to hear a word of it.
I didn't even want to spend the strength to go back, so I looked at Wu Wei in a daze.
"Don't think I'm just talking. King Yeqing and King Huiqing teamed up and found out Jiang Yu's business in the imperial city. Immediately, he touched the melons, and even Jiang Yu's private weapons were exposed one by one. Now the hundred officials are confronting the prime minister in the court. The Celestial Empire strictly forbade loyal ministers from doing business, especially these important transactions, and I think they could find out much more than that. What Jiang Yu has done over the years, he will write it out stroke by stroke through the pen of Yanguan Yushi. He may not make it out of the Imperial City alive. β
Speaking of this, Wu Wei couldn't help but feel proud: "In the end, I have to thank you." β
"What?" Gan Peilin couldn't suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart, but he tried his best to make himself look calm.
"If you hadn't taken over the Tsing Yi faction, many things wouldn't have been so easy." Wu Wei smiled slightly: "The Qingyi faction is one of Jiang Yu's arms. After Huo Qing's death, he was originally unable to form an army, but he used your hand to make him play again. For my use. β
"For you?" Gan Peilin really didn't understand the meaning of this.
"How could Xu Baisen accompany Jiang Yu to be a minister?" Wu Wei raised his head slightly: "He is from the Xu family." β
"You use Xu Baisen......" Gan Peilin gasped: "He doesn't know Jiang Yu's identity, don't you know either?" β
"I don't know what matters, as long as he doesn't know." When Wu Wei saw Gan Peilin's excitement, his face would become even paler, and he couldn't bear it slightly. "Pei Lin, Jiang Yu and I have reached the Jedi of endless death. Either he took my life, or he took his life from me. You can only live one anyway. I'm not going to give him another chance to take you away. β
"Do you know that the dagger that Su Xinxin used to stab me is a sharp blade with a barb?" Gan Peilin frowned and said, "That knife, she stood in front of me, and stabbed straight into my abdomen like this." β
Gan Peilin compared Su Xinxin's movements at that time.
Just looking at it like this, Wu Wei felt frightened. "It's okay now, isn't it? The reason why Su Xinxin did that was completely instigated by the slut of the Wen family, and the reason why Su Xinxin was used by her was completely because she didn't know that the Queen Mother was her mother-killing enemy. But don't worry, I won't give her another chance to hurt you. β
After Wu Wei said this, Gan Peilin looked at him in a daze.
"How?" Wu Wei couldn't understand what she meant, and couldn't help frowning: "Are you okay?" β
"The Queen Mother instigated Su Xinxin to murder me, how did you know about this?" Gan Peilin looked at her with a somewhat complicated look.
"Naturally, it is what King Qin said." Wu Wei frowned and looked back at her.
"Not really." Gan Peilin sneered: "They just found that dagger, which was originally the Queen Mother's thing." But he never said it himself, it was the Queen Mother who instructed Su Xinxin to do this. And you, not only do you know that Princess Lian Qin was killed by the Queen Mother, but Su Xinxin doesn't know that this matter is so conclusive, that is to say, Su Xinxin is in your hands, right? β
"Hmm." Wu Wei nodded: "Only you are so smart, you can guess it." β
"Then Su Yang was also killed by you?" Gan Peilin asked coldly: "Why?" β
"Nope." Wu Wei shook his head lightly: "If I didn't take Su Xinxin away, I'm afraid she would also die." And the person who killed Su Yang was not me, it was Jiang Yu! β
