Chapter 434: The True Truth (I)

Gu Shao smiled bitterly again: "Not only these people, but even the steward of Jian Yi's secret meeting before his death, as well as the people who asked Jian Yiyu to get the things that Jian Lezhi left him as soon as possible...... Zheng An said that they all seem to be inextricably linked with the Pei family in Youzhou! This is also the reason why after he was caught, he didn't dare to confide in him even though he was tortured, he was worried that if he was recruited, his mother, wife and children would inevitably be retaliated against by the Pei family in Youzhou! ”

These words inadvertently revealed how he made Zheng An confess: it must be the dual identity of the prime minister and the head of the Gu family in Hongzhou, giving Zheng An the guarantee of opening up his family's network.

Although Shou Chunbo and Qiu Shuxia had given Zheng An similar assurances and threats before, Zheng An, who had seen the Pei family in Youzhou, would definitely not believe them.

Because of Shou Chunbo or Qiu Shuxia, although the current status is not low, when it comes to background, it is not very good.

Only the Hongzhou Gu family, who is on an equal footing with Peizhou Pei's family, and is the head of the family, can shake Zheng An's confidence in carrying it to the end!

"In that case, Zheng An's so-called accidental exposure may have been planned for a long time, right?" Emperor Duanhua had long heard Emperor Xianjia repeatedly emphasize how unfathomable the background of the hairpin was for many generations, and he was not surprised when he heard this, he pondered for a while, and suddenly sneered.

β€”β€”Since the rich man has been able to lurk in Liaozhou for several generations without revealing his flaws, it can be seen that he is by no means a careless person, so when he gets up in the middle of the night to deliver food and other necessary things to Zheng An, how can he not be aware of his wife who shares the bed?

As a husband and a secret son of the Pei family, do something to make his wife sleep all night, and he can't notice the opportunity and ability to leave, will he be gone?

It is not so much that Zheng An was captured because of bad luck, but that this is the reason why Pei Yourui obviously has so many people who can attack Jian Yiyu in the north, but he wants to buy Zheng An from the imperial capital: Zheng An was Lu Chaoyu's dowry!

Pei Yourui doesn't fancy his martial arts at all, or even his toughness, but he likes his experience, and after being caught, he can drag Lu Chaoyu into the water as a scapegoat, so that he can get out calmly!

In this way, it is no wonder that Zheng Keji, the assassin of Liaozhou, told him that it was a group of ruffians who killed Shen Qimo's mother and son and the people in the house, but it was not Zheng An.

Pei Yourui doesn't need Zheng An to make a move at all, she just needs him to appear in Liaozhou as Lu Chaoyu's marrying partner, and get involved with what happened to Jian Yiyu's house, it's enough - she has someone to do the rest!

"I really underestimated this Cousin Pei before!" When Emperor Duanhua thought of this, he sneered again and said slowly, "Gu Xiang, you say, what should I do about this?" ”

"As Your Majesty said before, the most important thing at the moment is to appease the Empress Dowager." Gu Shao sighed in his heart, he was too lazy to care about the life or death of a single Jingmin county lord, but now this Jingmin county lord is already his own granddaughter-in-law!

And his grandson He Lou Duhan likes his wife very much, and he is so satisfied with Pei Yourui that he can't be more satisfied - due to the death of Miss Gu, the mother of He Lou Duhan, Gu Shao and this grandson have already had a rift, if he doesn't save his wife when he dies, I want to know that between the two grandparents and grandchildren, at least they don't get along with each other!

Whether it is out of affection or expectations for He Lou Duhan's future in the future, Gu Shao doesn't want to be estranged from his grandson, so he must go this trip!

After settling down, Gu Shao said, "Everything else is a small section - and the county lord of Jingmin has always been regarded as his own by Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, and now Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom first lost her parents and grandchildren, and then lost her sister and brother-in-law, if you know that the initiator of everything is the county lord of Jingmin, the pearl of your own palm, Your Majesty, how can Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom accept this?!" By that time......"

Emperor Duanhua looked at him coldly: "I remember, Jing Min's husband He Lou Duhan is your grandson, right?" ”

The relationship between He Lou Duhan and Gu Shao, not many people in the government and the opposition know about it, but Emperor Xianjia and Emperor Duanhua know it - because the reason why Emperor Xianjia named He Lou Duhan as the champion was not only to deliberately suppress Su Shaoge, but also to give Gu Shao a face.

In fact, although He Lou Duhan's talent is good, it may not be higher than Su Shaoge.

So now that Gu Shao is excusing Pei Yourui in and out of words, why doesn't Emperor Duanhua know what he means by saying this?

"Your Majesty!" When Gu Shao heard this, he didn't say a word, fell to his knees with a "plop", and said in a deep voice, "The relationship between the minister and He Lou Duhan has never been hidden from the royal family!" The minister received the great favor of the first emperor, and he only wanted to be able to do his best for His Majesty in his life, and then he died! It is the advice of the genius, and every word is for His Majesty! If Your Majesty feels that the minister cannot be trusted, the minister has nothing to say, only asking Your Majesty to cure the minister's sin! Minister, although he dies, he has no regrets! ”

His move of retreating was a headache for Emperor Duanhua: Emperor Duanhua didn't want Gu Shao to fool him as a fool, but he also knew that he couldn't do without Gu Shao's assistance at present.

What's more, Pei Yourui's calculations, although he killed one of his cousins and cousins, and indirectly forced his little aunt and uncle to death, but these people who died were all disliked by Emperor Duanhua, and even wanted to whip the corpse again - so Emperor Duanhua's dissatisfaction with Pei Yourui now is mainly because Pei Yourui took revenge as he wished, but the envoy who appeased the Empress Dowager and the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom had to do it!

To say that he is dissatisfied with Pei Yourui's approach, although there are also them, they are not very many.

Seeing Gu Shao kneel down and ask for guilt, Emperor Duanhua's face was ugly, and he slowed down his tone: "Why should Gu Xiang be like this?" I just suddenly remembered it, and I just said that! You are the prince's teacher, and you are the legacy of the first emperor, I have always relied on it, otherwise I wouldn't have sent you to do this thing, right? Get up, get up and speak! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Gu Shao saw that the emperor had already given in, and he didn't chase after him, he got up and shook his robe, before continuing, "Your Majesty, although the county lord of Jingmin is considered to be the granddaughter-in-law of the minister, but Your Majesty, please think about it, whoever is an elder wants to marry a wife and marry a virtuous person, and what the county lord of Jingmin did this time, although there is a reason, but even a child as young as Jian Chengzhi has not been spared, it really hurts heaven!" How could a minister like such a junior? If it weren't for the big deal, the minister would even be eager to remind the minister's grandson immediately to be careful of the county lord Jingmin! Now the reason why the county lord of Jingmin is cleared is that the ministers are still worried that the empress dowager and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom will not be able to accept this result! ”

Emperor Duanhua had nothing to say: because it was the truth.

The Empress Dowager and the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom will definitely not be able to accept this truth, even if he doesn't care if these two elders can be stimulated, but since the real murderer of Jian Yiyu's father and son is Pei Yourui, not Lu Chaoyu, wouldn't the Empress Dowager have more and more reason to ask the emperor to give her an explanation?

Question: Lu Chaoyu and his wife are dead, how can Emperor Duanhua compensate the Empress Dowager for a living little daughter?

Therefore, whether it is for the sake of the two elders' bodies and moods, or for the sake of Emperor Duanhua himself, Pei Yourui, the real murderer, must not be exposed!

"Is there anything else Zheng An hasn't said?" Emperor Duanhua pondered for a moment, and finally made up his mind, raised his head and asked Gu Shao.

Gu Shao understood what he meant: "He should have said everything he knew." ”

"Then let him have a good rest!" Emperor Duanhua waved his hand, "As for the truth...... I'm tired of tidying up, give it to me tomorrow, and I'll go and tell the imperial grandmother again! ”

That night, news came from the imperial capital that Zheng An couldn't survive the execution and was gone.

Because the news of the death of Lu Chaoyu and his wife was ordered by Emperor Duanhua to be sealed, it has not yet been spread - this news has not attracted much attention, thinking that Lu Chaoyu's family is still alive, the Empress Dowager didn't even ask, only said lightly "I know".

Obviously, the Empress Dowager thought that this was Emperor Duanhua's intention to fulfill his promise after negotiating the conditions with her.

The next day, Gu Shao entered the palace again to present the "truth" that he had stayed up all night to sort out.

This truth has wiped out Pei Yourui, all the evidence, details, and behind-the-scenes ...... All point to Lu Chaoyu and his wife!

After Emperor Duanhua read it, he asked Gu Shao to retire, and he brought his things to the Empress Dowager, cleared the scene, and asked the Empress Dowager to see it with her own eyes.

The Empress Dowager read it expressionlessly and said, "What does the emperor mean by this?" Didn't you say it before? ”

"Naturally." Emperor Duanhua said respectfully, "Grandson is just afraid that the imperial grandmother will misunderstand Grandnie - after all, Grandchild really doesn't like the little aunt very much, but the grandson really didn't plan to kill the little aunt!" ”

When the Empress Dowager heard this, her face eased slightly, and she said, "Good boy, of course the mourning family believes in you." ”

Fang said, "Dai Guo...... Chaoyu is really too angry! Because he was jealous of his sister, he poisoned Yiyou's father and son! This...... This is really infuriating to mourn the family!! ”

Emperor Duanhua hurriedly persuaded: "Don't be like this, grandmother - I want to come to my little aunt and I am confused for a while!" There is a saying that people can't be resurrected after death, not to mention that if Jian Yi hadn't died in the hands of his little aunt, just because of King Qing's affairs, his grandson would not have spared him! In this way, it seems that the little aunt helped him escape! ”

When he said this, he felt a little chill in his heart: Jian Yi is still not good, and he is also the grandson of the Empress Dowager, not to mention that there is also a Jian Chengzhi in his hand who was killed together!

But after the Empress Dowager read it, she still cared about Lu Chaoyu first, and after confirming that Emperor Duanhua had no intention of killing Lu Chaoyu, she scolded her little daughter meaningfully - it can be seen that in the Empress Dowager's mind, what she gave birth to is very different from that of her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law.

If Emperor Duanhua hadn't listened to Gu Shao's advice and told this imperial grandmother the truth that Pei Yourui was the real murderer, what kind of storm would be waiting for him?

"Grandson has ordered a credible person to kill Zheng An, and swept away many traces." Emperor Duanhua stabilized his mind and said to the Empress Dowager with confidence, "As for this thing, my grandson will burn it here immediately!" In the future, no one will mention this matter - it's just the aunt of the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, but she still needs your help, so that the aunt doesn't know, so the two aunts ...... As a junior, my grandson has a lot of things that are not easy to say, so I can only ask you to help worry about it! ”

The Empress Dowager stared for a moment, then bowed her head and said, "The Jin Kingdom will be handed over to the mourning family!" There is no one left in the second room of the Jian family, so why bother to make their sisters have a gap? The daughters of the mourning family, now there are only the two of them left to be companions! ”

Just when Emperor Duanhua and the Empress Dowager were discussing how to fool the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, under the cloister with the word "He Lou" written outside the palace lamp, He Lou walked out of the inner room with a blue face, and strode away without looking back!

He had some love at first sight for Pei Yourui, in order to marry the county lord of Jingmin, he resigned countless high-ranking marriages, and finally got his wish.

At this point, everyone saw it in their eyes - seeing his angry expression at this moment, they couldn't help but be secretly surprised!

"County Lord?" Pei Yourui's bridal maid Lan Xiang stood outside the room, cautiously opening inward, not at ease, and walked in boldly, but saw Pei Yourui sitting at the table in a daze, and there were broken cups and water stains on the ground, she was surprised and angry, and hurriedly walked over and asked, "What's wrong with the county horse?" ”

"Nothing!" Pei Yourui said so, but from her slightly trembling hands, it could be seen that she was not calm in her heart, took a deep breath, stabilized her mind, and said, "What about the calf?" Tell him to come, I have something to command him!" ”

The calf is the little beggar she saved on the way back to Youzhou with her father, because she didn't have a name, Pei Yourui saw that he was thin, so she gave him the name of "calf", which means that she hopes that he will grow strong, like a cow, and he will not lose the simplicity and steadfastness of the cow - originally Pei Yourui wanted to give him some silver to send him away after naming him, but he begged in every way to stay by Pei Yourui's side to serve, Pei Yourui would be in the pain of losing his father, and he also had some compassion for the calf who did not forget to save himself when the pavilion collapsed, so he allowed him.

Later, when the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, Tuo Jian, took her to the imperial capital, Xiao Niu wanted to follow, and she agreed-this former little beggar said that he was her slave, in fact, Pei Yourui had some meaning to treat him as a younger brother, and Lan Xiang and other maids saw it in their eyes, and they were extremely tolerant and partial.

At this moment, when she heard that Pei Yourui wanted to see him, Lan Xiang thought that she wanted the calf to do something secret, so she didn't suspect him, so she hurriedly called someone over.

It's just that what Lan Xiang didn't know was that after the calf arrived, Pei Yourui immediately ordered the field to be cleared, and then didn't wait for the calf to ask questions, and the split was a sentence: "Maverick, or you have other big names - what are you coming from?!" ”
