At the mention of Pei Zhiyang, a trace of emotion appeared on Mrs. Pei's face.

Although he was on the verge of death and had long looked down on life and death, he couldn't watch his favorite little grandson being implicated.

In the end, Mrs. Pei finally relented.

Mrs. Pei said that before Song Yanzhi was sent to prison, he had set up a suspicion to make the first rebel king think that he still had other evidence.

Song Yanzhi said in court that once the news of his death came out, the evidence would be presented directly to the saint.

And no one knows to whom he gave the evidence for safekeeping.

Mrs. Pei was also targeted by the people who rebelled against the king first, but the gang sped on Pei's mansion several times and couldn't find any clues.

After Song Yanzhi was imprisoned, he mysteriously disappeared not long after.

Six Gates sent people to investigate, and the jailers of the prison unanimously said that he had escaped with the assistance of his accomplices.

Who are the accomplices, where did Song Yanzhi go, and whose evidence is in his hands?

The first emperor was furious, and ordered Six Doors to secretly hunt down Song Yanzhi, claiming to be arresting the thieves of the rivers and lakes.

And Yan Yingzhou's father, Yan Mu, is the head catcher who is responsible for tracking down Song Yan's whereabouts.

When Mrs. Pei mentioned this past, a burst of pain flashed in her eyes, and her fists kept clenching and slowly loosening.

Yan Yingzhou heard his mother say it, so he was not surprised.

He was waiting for Mrs. Pei's next words.

The old man seemed to be stuck in a long memory, and the wrinkles on his face were like furrows, deep and complex.

"Yanzhi is a good student and a good imperial historian......"

He still remembered Song Yanzhi's high-spirited appearance back then.

Old Master Pei sighed: "It's a pity that no one has seen him again, and I'm afraid few people remember this name now." ”

Song Yanzhi, this name may be unfamiliar to others.

But Yan Yingzhou has never forgotten it for more than ten years, and this person is closely related to his father's death.

"You might as well recall the old lady below, if I guess correctly, he should have died at the hands of the Broken Intestine Man."

Old Lady Pei's expression proved that his inferences over the years were not wrong.

He said coldly: "So, he didn't escape from prison, but someone deliberately let him go, intending to lure out his companions and seize the evidence, right?" ”

Although it was a questioning tone, Old Master Pei knew that this question did not need him to answer.

Yan Yingzhou has made countless speculations over the years.

Now he found the one closest to the truth from Mrs. Pei's expression.

"The person who let him go also hired a gut-breaker to kill him, my father must have found something, so he arrested the gut-breaker."

Old Master Pei lowered her head silently.

His silence just testified to Yan Yingzhou's inference.

Yan Yingzhou's expression was cold, and there seemed to be a sword light in his eyes, which was cold.

"The younger generation wants to ask the old lady, why did the imperial court detain my father back then?"

"This ......"

Mrs. Pei has been up and down all her life, and she is used to seeing strong winds and waves, and she can still be calm in the face of political enemies and take charge of the overall situation.

But what he is facing now is a posterior who lost his father at a young age.

Yan Yingzhou's appearance is very similar to Yan Mu, and Mrs. Pei vaguely remembers the heroic chief catcher.

In front of this young man, he felt a little weak.

Yan Yingzhou asked, "Do they think that the evidence left by Song Yanzhi is in my father's hands?" ”

Old Lady Pei nodded slowly.

At that time, the first emperor was weak, and the power of the first rebel king was growing day by day, and Song Yanzhi's accusations alone could not shake the foundation of the first rebel king.

Not only that, but his twist and turn also angered the first rebel king, and almost caused a mutiny.

In order to appease the first rebel king, the first emperor had to put Song Yanzhi in the prison, thinking that it was a plan to delay the army.

The situation was treacherous, and Mrs. Pei couldn't protect herself, so she kept pretending to be deaf and dumb, holding back, and watching Yan Mu die tragically.

That brocade box was the last bargaining chip Song Yanzhi left him.

At this moment, Mrs. Pei did not regret it, and stared at Yan Yingzhou's face with mixed feelings.

"If Ling Zun is chosen instead, his life and my people will be stable for ten years, and he will definitely choose the latter."

After saying that, all the strength in his body seemed to be drained.

Yan Yingzhou said coldly: "I choose my father." ”

Old Master Pei shook her head weakly, as if regretting that he didn't understand the loyalty of his courtiers.

"Changing the life and death of Pei Zhiyang and others, what do you choose?"

A sneer tugged at the corner of his lips, and he continued, "Is it true that there are more people on one side, and I have to choose which side?" ”

He may have hesitated before, but now he has the woman he loves.

He knew that he would grab her hand first.

Mrs. Pei was speechless when Yan Yingzhou asked.

After a long time, he said slowly: "The meaning of the butterfly jade pendant, in fact, the old man is not clear, and Yanzhi has not told me. ”

But this jade pendant was able to restrain the action of not leaving the Buddha after the violent death of the first rebel king, allowing them to endure for many years.

In that year, the first emperor and the first rebel king died suddenly on the same day.

Mrs. Pei secretly met with the leader of the Buddha, and after negotiating with him, the other party promised to leave the capital and disband the rebels.

But the other party's condition is that they want the Pei family to cover all their actions.

This is why there is the Buddhist hall of the Pei family, and all kinds of causes and effects later.

Yan Yingzhou was quite surprised and asked, "But does anyone still know the agreement between the old lady and the Buddha who does not stay?" ”

If no one can prove the innocence of Mrs. Pei, once the East Window incident happens, the Pei family will be drawn into the abyss of rebellion.

Old Master Pei closed her eyes, and a cloudy tear slowly flowed from the corner of her eye.

"Only the first emperor is alone."

This was the end of their conversation.

Yan Yingzhou told Ruan Si all this without reservation.

The clue of the butterfly jade pendant is broken.

Ruan Si finally understood why Mrs. Yan told her that Yan Yingzhou must not be allowed to return to Beijing.

His father's death involved the struggle for imperial power and countless insiders.

Once Yan Yingzhou returns to Beijing, with his character, he will inevitably start to investigate the events of that year.

The order to imprison Yan Mu was given by the first emperor.

Could it be that the imperial court could still admit the mistake of the Yan family according to the tablet of the first emperor?

In Ruan Si's view, this is a defeat without suspense.

But she still pressed Yan Yingzhou's face and said softly: "Husband, do you still want to continue to investigate?" ”

"I don't know."

He is unwilling, but he is too deeply involved, and he will definitely affect the people around him.

"If you want to check, we'll keep looking." Ruan Si hugged his neck and smiled, "Anyway, I'm going with you." ”

Yan Yingzhou finally chuckled, "Okay." ”

is still tracking down the clues of the Buddha, in addition to him, there is also the Lord of the Qincha Su Yaji.

In the past few days, he asked to see Mrs. Pei, so he went to the Ministry of Officials to request an investigation, but was directly rejected by the Ministry of Officials.

Su Yaji had no choice but to stay in Linquan County and continue to investigate the matter alone.

But what's worse is that the imperial court secretly issued an order for him to secretly let go of Jiang Junshou's family.

He couldn't figure it out, but he couldn't break it......
