Pei Jinzhen saw Ye Zhun clenching his teeth, looking at her eyes, a little red and wet, and the hand holding the jade pendant trembled uncontrollably, and couldn't help but hang his head.

This is the second time she has seen Ye Zhun lose his temper. The first time was when Ji Shuya "died".

"The first time, when Sister Shu Ya saw my jade pendant, her expression was different, and at that time, I became suspicious. It's just that if you don't have a clue, to check it out is really tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. Just now, when I met Sister Shu Ya, I didn't think to ask her about your true identity from her, but asked her about this jade pendant. ”

Ye Zhun couldn't hold his breath at this moment, "Let me ask you again, where did you get this jade pendant?" ”

"Lord Ye already has a guess in his heart, so why bother asking me?" Pei Jinzhen was unusually calm at this time.

Ye Zhun gritted his teeth, "What I want, not speculation." ”

"This jade pendant...... It was given to me by Yan Chong, saying that it was something left to him by the eldest princess of Yong'an, and I don't know anything else. ”

"Yan Chong's?" Ye Zhun's eyes were already full of horror.

"It's like a fake. Just now, Lord Ye asked me why? With the weight of this, is it enough? Pei Jinzhen said calmly, but his eyes were tightly fixed on Ye Zhun's face.

"Is this thing real or not...... It remains to be verified. Ye Zhun calmed his eyes.

"Lord Ye, just go and verify." Pei Jinzhen is not afraid, because what she said is true. "It's just...... Don't take too long, Lord Ye should know that there is not much time to save Yan Chong. ”

Ye Zhun didn't say anything, his face was already sinking like water, he stood up, clasped the jade pendant in his palm, and had no intention of returning it at all.

In the blink of an eye, the people he brought with him were also gone.

Pei Jinzhen watched him walk away, and only after the breath he had been holding was relieved, his body shook and softened on the edge of the table.

Green Branch hurriedly stepped forward and held her up, "Madam? ”

Pei Jinzhen shook his head, "It's nothing." Finally...... "what can be done, what should be done, everything has been done."

The green branch wanted to speak and stopped, "Lord Ye...... Will he come to the rescue? ”

Pei Jinzhen shook his head, "I don't know." "The only thing they can do now is wait. If she hadn't come to a dead end, she wouldn't have taken this step. I don't know how accurate her guess can be. Even if Ye Zhunzhen rescued Yan Chong, she couldn't say what the future would be.

said that he was going to wait, but when there was still no movement on the second day, Pei Jinzhen couldn't help but be anxious.

Especially the news that Yuan Ke got from him, he was not optimistic.

Hu Luzang repeatedly exerted pressure, but after Yuan Ke found Concubine Xian and Pei Jinyun here, there was no progress. Even with His Majesty's permission, Concubine Xian and Pei Jinyun had already been interrogated, except for the fact that they conspired with Hu Luzhen to trap Pei Jinzhen, and used Pei Jinzhen's beads to lure Yan Chong to see Hu Luzhen, there was no substantial evidence about Hu Luzhen's killing.

And in fact, even if this matter was not done by Yan Chong, but by Concubine Xian and Pei Jinyun, there was no difference to Daliang.

If the handle falls into the hands of the Beidi people, at best, if the peace talks fail, they will passively agree to many harsh conditions, and at worst, they may cause war.

Yuan Ke often walks in front of the emperor, Emperor Yonghe has always been self-disciplined, and he is rarely swayed by emotions, but in recent days, he has become more and more irritable day by day, and I am afraid that he will not be able to last a few more days.

Even if he regarded Yan Chong as his own and hurt him for more than 20 years, if it was really time to make a trade-off, for the sake of Daliang Jiangshan Sheji, Pei Jinzhen could guess his choice without thinking about it.

After thinking about it, Pei Jinzhen still handed the post to the palace. Another day passed, and it was not until the end of the third day of the meeting with Ye Zhun that he received a reply from the palace.

In the early morning of the next day, after Pei Jinzhen cleaned up, he entered the palace with the green branches.

At the palace gate, Su Ying was already waiting and welcomed her directly into the Fengzao Palace.

Empress Zheng, dressed in homely clothes, was waiting for her, "It's just right that you're here, wait a while, and you will go to Shou'an Palace with the palace." ”

"I don't know what happened to the Queen Mother's condition?" Pei Jinzhen saw that she hadn't seen her for a few days, and Empress Zheng seemed to be a little haggard again, presumably because she was sick in front of the Queen Mother.

Pei Jinzhen is outside the palace, and the news is naturally not so well-informed, and the only thing he knows is that the obituary of the Queen Mother has not yet been transmitted.

After a pause, Empress Zheng shook her head, "It's not good, most of these days I have been asleep, only relying on a little porridge and water, the imperial doctor has already asked Your Majesty, is it necessary to prepare everything that should be prepared." ”

After Pei Jinzhen heard this, his heart couldn't help but sink, and in an instant, the palm of his hand was a cold sweat.

I didn't expect it to be so serious. These days, Emperor Yonghe's irritability should not only be because of Yan Chong's affairs, but also because of the Empress Dowager's illness, right?

When she raised her eyes, she met a pair of eyes that Empress Zheng was looking at her.

It seems to have seen through the transparency of everything, but with two points of helplessness, "This palace knows what you are thinking, and this palace is also worried about the time, but now, it is definitely not the time to speak." The Queen Mother can't help you anymore, Your Majesty...... Your Majesty has his difficulties, you are sensible, at this time, you must think clearly that you must not make mistakes. ”

Pei Jinzhen had no choice but to say respectfully, "Thank you Niangniang for mentioning it, the courtiers can save it." ”

But he didn't expect that not long after arriving at Shou'an Palace, Emperor Yonghe also came.

The Queen Mother really fell asleep unconscious, her face was very unsightly, and the situation was not very good.

Xiao Lingxi has been taking care of Shou'an Palace and has never gone out, so Emperor Yonghe asked her a few questions, such as whether she has been sober, what to use, etc., and after asking, everyone in the palace became silent again.

Everyone already knows a lot of things, but they don't want to break it.

After a long time, Emperor Yonghe's eyes fell on Pei Jinji, and he looked at her bulging belly intently.

"It's about a month, right?"

This is talking about the day she gave birth, but I didn't expect that Emperor Yonghe remembered it clearly.

Pei Jinzhen hurriedly replied, "Back to Your Majesty, yes." ”

Emperor Yonghe nodded, his eyes dark, "Then it will be easy to give birth to, and the queen will take care of it." The queen mother is looking forward to the time for a long time, and when the time comes, the mother and son will be safe, and the queen mother will be happy. ”

"The concubine can be saved, Your Majesty can rest assured." Empress Zheng replied.

"Hmm." Emperor Yonghe nodded, and when he looked at Pei Jinzhen again, he paused again, "Now, Shen Shi has also been in prison for more than ten days, I thought that you should have lost your breath and came to plead with me." I didn't expect ...... You can really bear it, I didn't misunderstand you before. ”

"The courtiers know Your Majesty's difficulties, although the courtiers are only a woman, they can still distinguish between state affairs and family affairs. What's more, when the courtiers went to visit the prince in prison, he also repeatedly told the courtiers that they should not cause trouble to His Majesty, and also let the courtiers rest assured that His Majesty loved him, and no matter what, he would not watch him die unjustly. ”
