The next day, when Pei Zhao got up, he was still as light as before, but even so, Su Ying still woke up, she didn't sleep very well this night, and there was a faint dark blue circle under her eyes, Pei Zhao tucked the quilt for her, and said softly: "It's still early, you can sleep for a while." ”

Su Ying nodded, and asked again, "Why did you get up earlier than usual today?" ”

Pei Zhao said: "There are some things to tell Nangong Lie before going to court. ”

Su Ying nodded, hesitated for a long time, and still gently held his hand: "My father and they...... If you make a mistake today...... her chest tightened badly, and she subconsciously grabbed Pei Zhao's hand and looked at her fixedly: "You promised me that I wouldn't hurt their lives, and I would definitely believe you, but I don't want you to condone their mistakes because of me, I don't want you to be embarrassed, okay?" ”

Pei Zhao was silent for a moment and smiled at her: "I know." ”

Although it has not yet reached the time of the last dynasty, Nangong Lie and Pei Zheng are also in the warm pavilion of the Xuanzheng Hall early, when they came, they had already learned about yesterday's events from Tong He's mouth, and after Pei Zhao came, seeing his gloomy and uncertain face, he suddenly felt worried, Nangong Lie took the lead and said:

"Your Majesty, how can there be such a coincidence in the world, Su Shi's old husband must have learned of Niangniang's whereabouts and deliberately brought his son over! He has good intentions, one is the eldest brother of the mother, and the other is the brother closest to the mother, what, is this to use the relationship between father and daughter to coerce the mother? When the men of their Su family rebelled that day, did they remember their daughter and sister? ”

Pei Zhao sat on the throne with a cold face, without saying a word, Pei Zheng said: "The younger brother got the message of the imperial brother last night, so he ordered someone to investigate, and it was really as the imperial brother expected, the Zhishu next to Xiao Ah Ming had received Su Hui's favor in the past, and then he was instructed by Su Shi, and led the imperial sister-in-law out of the palace in the name of Jueyun Temple. ”

When he said this, he couldn't help but cautiously raise his eyes to look at Pei Zhao's expression, only to see that there was no fluctuation on his face, but his chin was slightly tightened, but he was relieved, but Tong He, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but be frightened. He has served Pei Zhao for many years, and at a glance, he knew that Pei Zhao was already furious at this time, and sure enough, the next moment, he spoke, and the voice seemed to be calm and waveless, but it revealed a cold chill:

"He is so loyal to the Su family, then I will let him fight for the Su family."

Pei Zheng was shocked, nodded subconsciously, and heard the meaning of Pei Zhao's words, and couldn't help sighing: "After all, the imperial brother is still willing to let the Su family live." ”

"If they hadn't been involved again and again, I wouldn't have been prepared to kill them in the first place." Pei Zhao's eyes were murderous, and his face was terrifyingly cold: "If it weren't for the fear that Ah Ying would be sad, I would have cut them with a thousand knives!" ”

For more than a year, in fact, Pei Zheng has noticed the changes in Pei Zhao, he has more or less understanding of Pei Zhao's ruthless methods of killing in the past, and now Pei Zhao is extremely benevolent and lenient compared to the past, Nangong Lie and Tong He who were present are also people who know Pei Zhao's temperament well, and the three of them looked at each other tacitly, and did not dare to say a word.

It was in this strange tranquility that a strong fear gradually rose in Pei Zheng's heart, because of Su Jin, Pei Zhao's temperament gradually became much gentler, so if Su Ying was not there one day......

As soon as this thought started, he secretly pinched himself, he and Su Ying have always been friends, and he is very happy to see her and the imperial brother for a long time, and he is very guilty of the ridiculous idea that he suddenly gave birth to that is almost a curse, so he smiled and said: "The younger brother was worried that the imperial sister-in-law would not be able to bear it after knowing the truth, and he hesitated to let Meiniang enter the palace to accompany her. The royal brother and sister-in-law will have a long and good time in the future, so there is really no need to be angry with the Su family. ”

Nangong Lie felt that this sounded very reasonable, and he smiled and said a few words, Pei Zhao eased his face, and the three of them discussed together for a long time, and when they saw that it was the time of the last dynasty, they went out together.

Pei Zheng is not going to the court, today because of the important matter, Tete put on the prince's crown dress and followed behind Pei Zhao, seeing that the civil and military officials had already knelt outside the palace, he smiled at Pei Zhao and said: "Brother Huang still has a battle to fight today." ”

Pei Zhao didn't say a word, but his thoughts had already drifted to the Chaoyang Palace, and it seemed to be much warmer today, and he didn't know if Ah Ying woke up at this time. Pei Ming is right, he really wants to fight a battle today, this battle is not ordinary from the past, but the ending is destined not to change, only he is the final winner.

In the past, when he was out on an expedition, he always thought in his heart that after this battle, he would be able to return to Tianjing City and see her, and today, it is the same.

At this time, spring has begun, and the most important thing is to deal with the case of Pei Yu's rebellion. He Wuji had already ordered someone to bring Pei Yu out of the detention center, and then stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Pei Yu has been very restless in the detention center these days, and he has spoken disrespectfully every day, and now the evidence of Pei Yu's rebellion has been conclusive, and the minister implores His Majesty to make a decision as soon as possible and kill the rebellious ministers and thieves, so as to show Your Majesty's imperial prestige and peace and tranquility!" ”

Pei Zhao said: "He Qing's words are reasonable, I don't know if everyone Aiqing still has objections?" ”

No one has anything to say about such an ironclad matter, and the ministers immediately seconded it, only Su Shi and his party were silent, and after the hall was quiet, he sneered, got up and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister has objections." ”

Those who didn't know the truth at the scene pinched a cold sweat for Su Shi, and scolded him for being confused in their hearts, only saying that he had tried his best to ensure that Pei Yu had missed it once that day, and now he dared to kill himself, and the strange eyes of everyone did not shake Su Shi, he raised his head and looked at Pei Zhao's eyes, and said:

"Lord He just said that Pei Yu was not disrespectful every day when he was in the detention center, Your Majesty might as well announce Pei Yu to the palace and ask him carefully what he said, if there is anything unbearable, he can order severe punishment."

"Su Xiang's words are very ridiculous." He Wuji only thought that Su Shi was still dying, and was quite disdainful: "Since you know that Pei Yu's words are unbearable, how can you let him go to the temple to insult the saint?" Besides, he has long been a capital crime, and how severe can the punishment be? ”

Su Shi didn't pay attention to He Wuji, but just looked at Pei Zhao meaningfully: "What does Your Majesty think the old minister said?" ”

"Su Qing is an old minister who has been in the court for many years, since you have opened your mouth, how can I not be reasonable?"

Pei Zhao's words were an understatement, but he was shocked in the ears of the ministers, He Wuji glared at Su Shi fiercely, and had to order someone to bring Pei Yu to the palace.

Pei Zhao looked at Pei Yu's disgraced face, and said lightly: "I heard that you have been cursing and not being peaceful every day since you entered the detention center, so Su Xiang proposed to declare you to come to the palace to ask, and I asked you, what grievances do you have in your heart?" ”

"His Royal Highness King Ning still takes into account our brotherhood, since this is the case, I, as a younger brother, will say it directly."

Hearing that Pei Yu did not call the word "Your Majesty", but called Pei Zhao's title before he ascended the throne, many ministers were already angry at the moment, and Wu Zhijing took the lead in scolding: "Bold traitor, dare to be disrespectful to Your Majesty!" ”

"Lord Wu shouted one by one, so unkind." Pei Yu's gentle face gradually emerged: "You are the secretary of the Ministry of Etiquette, and you have always valued etiquette the most, and this king wants to ask you, this king is plotting to usurp the throne, isn't he?" At that time, everyone knew that he was just a man who was born ominous, and his father had always hated him the most, so how could he entrust this great task to him? ”

Wu Zhijing heard that he meant something, and just sneered: "Shaft! When the ninth son of the emperor Pei Duo rebelled in Jiulong Mountain, it was His Majesty who led the Xuanjia Army to escort and quell the rebellion, and then the first emperor ordered His Majesty to supervise the country, and its intentions are well known. ”

A trace of disbelief flashed in Pei Yu's eyes, but he quickly regained his calmness, he looked at Pei Zhao's calm and waveless eyes, and subconsciously avoided looking at Su Shi, seeing Su Shi nodding slightly at himself, this was a lot more steady, and continued:

"Okay, since it is the will of the first emperor, then this matter will not be mentioned for the time being. This king asks you again, since he ascended the throne, he has acted harshly and ruthlessly, and suppressed the old ministers around the first emperor everywhere, so that among the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, there are very few nobles and nobles, and they have surrendered their identities and condescended to trade with small barbarian countries. ”

He was already dizzy, these words almost blurted out, and only after he finished saying it did he realize how stupid and ridiculous his words were, and sure enough, He Wuji, who has always been uninhibited, took the lead in sneering:

"Your Majesty, I heard that General Nangong and General Lin with less than 20,000 Xuanjia troops captured this traitor in one or two hours, and the minister still felt unbelievable at that time, but now he has witnessed the demeanor of His Royal Highness King De, so he dared to think that with the ability of His Royal Highness King De, maybe even Weichen, a powerless person, can probably be captured."

His words were funny and mean, but fortunately, Pei Zhao has always been very strict, and although the ministers tried their best to hold back their laughter, the palace was still in order. Fang Shizhong and the others immediately said aloud about Pei Zhao's treasury silver, land harvest, and the rule of the Ming Dynasty before and after Pei Zhao's accession to the throne, Pei Yu's face became more and more gray, and after Fang Shizhong finished the last sentence, he looked at Pei Zhao with a smile on his face, and his face was a little crazy:

"This king didn't know that His Royal Highness King Ning had such a good means to train such a loyal courtier! But the king wonders if they will be as loyal to you as ever if they know what you have done. ”

He was afraid that Pei Zhao would order someone to gag his mouth, so he quickly turned around and looked at the civil and military officials, and said loudly: "Pei Zhao disregarded Tianlun and insulted his mother-in-law, is this the good monarch you swear allegiance to?!"
