"Why did my husband assassinate the crown prince?!" After a while, Pei Yourui, who had listened to Jia Eleven's explanation, had obvious suspicion in his eyes, "Speaking of which, he and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are brothers in the same sect - I don't believe you, what do you want to do?!" ”

Jia Shiyi smiled and said, "Sister, I really didn't lie to you!" In fact, even we were very surprised that the Su family had planted such an important chess piece next to Gu Xiang, and it was not good for He Lou to have a cold life, if it weren't for the Su family's primary goal now being to support King Su to ascend the throne, he was a shadow son of his level, and the importance was only worse than that of Fufeng Tang's children! There is no way to sacrifice him at this time. ”

"But now that He Wenqiong is in control of the forbidden army, His Royal Highness King Su can't enter the imperial capital at all, His Majesty's departure is a foregone conclusion, and the new monarch candidate will not be determined for too long, and the Su family can only make this decision!"

Speaking of this, he sighed, "The Su family is obviously ruthless - although He Lou Duhan was able to suppress Su Zhiyong, the second son of Fufeng Hall, to become the champion, it was Gu Shao's light, but to be honest, his own talent and learning can be regarded as having their own merits with Su Zhiyong!" Such a talent, even if it has a profound background, is extremely rare. Now I have to give up in order to pave the way for King Su, and even I feel sorry for Fufeng Tang when I hear it! ”

Pei Yourui was stunned for a moment, but still shook her head: "Don't talk nonsense here and slander my husband!" He is obviously Gu Xiang's grandson, and he is related by blood, how can the Su family buy it? What is your purpose, now that I am in your hands, I will not bargain with you if I can do it, and don't entangle you if I can't do it, although I will start - if I still remember how well I treated you back then, then give me a good time! ”

"This matter has now made a lot of noise in the imperial capital, why should I lie to my sister?" Jia Shiyi showed a look of grievance, "As my sister said, now that my sister has been taken to me, you know my true identity, why should I frame He Lou Duhan?" ”

What he said also made sense, but Pei Yourui still refused to believe it: "What reason does my husband have to betray Gu Xiang for the sake of the Su family?!" ”

"He Lou Duhan's life experience, outsiders don't know, my sister, as the wife of the knotted hair, must know something." Jia Shiyi said with a smile, "He was not born in the Gu family, but lived abroad with his biological mother, and after showing his talent, he was recommended to Gu Shao by his mother, and since then he has received Gu Shao's attention and teachings - that is to say, before he followed Gu Shao to study, their mother and son have always depended on each other without the support of relatives." ”

"There are too many opportunities for the Su family to do something!"

"But my husband grew up in Jiangnan!" Pei Yourui immediately retorted, "When Gu Xiang wanted to send his mother-in-law away from Hongzhou, what did he choose Jiangnan? It is because Gu Xiang's best friend Song Jinan is the head of the Jiangnan Song family, and his influence in Jiangnan is deep-rooted, so he can take good care of their mother and son! ”

"My husband told me that if it weren't for Ji Nangong's death before he entered school, my mother-in-law originally planned to let him worship under Ji Nangong!"

"No matter how powerful the Su family is, the foundation is far away in Qingzhou after all, how can they do something in Jiangnan?!"

Jia Shiyi said with a smile: "My sister also said that before He Lou Duhan arrived at Gu Shao's door, Ji Nangong died. His son Song Yuan took over the helm of Jiangnan Hall, the master's mind, but from the beginning to his death, it was in his wife, Princess Wei, and he had no pity for his own daughter, let alone the sister who had never met before? Or is it the sister who is far away in Jiangnan? ”

Pei Yourui was silent for a while, and said, "So, you kidnapped me here this time because Burning Quinoa wanted to deal with Fufeng Hall?" ”

"Sister, let's relax and stay here!" Jia Shiyi didn't answer this question, only smiled and said, "This time, no one can guess that He Lou Duhan is the Su family - it's a pity that the emperor has no evidence, so she can't help the Su family for the time being, but my sister, as He Lou Duhan's wife, is pregnant with his child, so she will definitely be involved!" The Emperor has now issued an order to hunt you down with all her might! You live here now, but it's safer than being picked up by the Su family. ”

Speaking of this, he clapped his hands, and two women dressed as servants walked in, Jia Shiyi smiled, and no longer spoke to Pei Yourui's pleasant face, and ordered lightly, "I am good to serve Sister Pei, but there is a mistake, only the two of you are asking, do you understand?!" ”

Although Jia Eleven told Pei Yourui all the truth, he told the truth about one thing: the emperor is now almost crazy in order to avenge the crown prince, relying on the benefits of the forbidden army, and turning the imperial capital and Zuojin, including the Jihou Mansion, all the Su family properties they know have turned upside down!

If Pei Yourui was really picked up by Su Shaoge, it would be difficult not to show her whereabouts!

But no one thought that it was the secret guard of the Liu family's Burning Quinoa Hall who picked her up - so after three consecutive days and three nights of searching, Empress Wei had to accept the fact that even the Su family now does not know Pei Yourui's whereabouts!

"What about He Lou Duhan?" Empress Wei pinched her eyebrows, she hadn't closed her eyes at all in the past three days, while dispatching people to track down Pei Yourui, while guarding the prince to prevent being taken advantage of, and sending the prince to Huangquan with more energy, and on the other hand, she had to keep an eye on the court to prevent the Su family from falling into the well - in fact, the Su family did this, Qiu Shuxia openly proposed at the court meeting the day after the prince's assassination: "The prince's life and death are unknown now, how can he practice Zuo?" ”

Although it was finally suppressed by the Wei family, the three-day court meeting was also extremely fierce around this matter: even Wei Xi, the prince's maternal grandfather, hinted to Empress Wei when he came to visit yesterday that if the prince could not improve significantly today, then he should start preparing to support the king of Shu!

As for saying that the relationship between the King of Shu and the King of Su is very good, but he has had a fight with the prince - there is nothing to worry about this problem, a prince who has not yet tied his hair, has no strong foreign family, and has a very young heart, if the Wei family can't hold him, it will be in vain for so many years!

In short, whether it is for the Wei family or for the queen personally, the throne must not fall into the hands of King Su!

"He still won't confess." Xin Xian handed over the ginseng tea and said cautiously, "The executioner said that if he continues like this, he is afraid that he will not survive tonight......"

"Can't let him just die!" The queen took the ginseng tea, but did not drink it, and ordered in a deep voice, "Call the imperial doctor to take a look and treat him—you have to hang your life!" ”

Xin Xian responded, and comforted: "The slave maid sees that His Royal Highness the Prince's breathing is much better than half a day ago, and I think His Royal Highness will definitely get better!" ”

When Empress Wei heard this, her eyes showed sadness, and she choked up a little: "But let's hope so!" After all, it was the mother of this palace who didn't protect him! ”

The master and servant were silent for a while, and the queen beat her spirits and asked again, "How is the situation of today's court meeting?" ”

"Someone proposed to establish Lu Hehao or the king of Shu, but after arguing for a while, there was no result." Xin Xian paused before saying, "There are also people who propose to hold Gu Xiang accountable, but it has also caused controversy - because Gu Xiang is now in prison, and Wei Shangshu is in charge of this matter, so after a fight, it will not be resolved for the time being." ”

When Gu Shao entered the palace to plead guilty, Empress Wei had already calmed down a little, so instead of scolding, she suppressed her anger and comforted him a few words.

After such a peaceful discussion, Gu Shao decided to fully cooperate with the empress - he went into the edict prison by himself, and in the current situation, he could not help but go.

But in fact, Empress Wei wished that he wouldn't go, if he was in the court, facing his guilt for the prince at the moment, he would know that he must have made a lot of effort to help the prince.

But Gu Shao was imprisoned like this, and the people who originally supported the prince could only start with Wei Xi.

Wei Xi has been dormant for too long, and his reputation in the court cannot be compared with Gu Shao.

Even in terms of momentum, if it weren't for the fact that he won Qiu Shuxia in the court brawl last time, he would be inferior to Qiu Shuxia.

In addition, the prince was seriously injured and his life and death were unpredictable - this made everyone very worried about whether he could ascend the throne alive, and the current situation on the prince's side can be imagined!

"That's it for now!" Empress Wei pressed the corner of her forehead with a headache, "By the way, over there in Jinxiutang, but you also have to pay attention?" Maybe the Su family will entrust them to place Pei Yourui? ”

Xin Xian hurriedly said: "Not only Jinxiutang, because the remnants of Jiangnan Hall took refuge in Grandma Song two days ago, the slave maid also sent someone to investigate, but...... There is no trace of the county lord of Jingmin! ”

The queen was stunned when she heard this, and suddenly said: "Speaking of which, Burning Quinoa Hall and Ming Pei Tang are also closely related to Yanhou Mansion because of Old Lady Duanmu—you say, could it be that these two families have taken people away?" ”

"Slave maid go check immediately!" Xin Xian was about to say this, but the queen sighed and said abruptly: "Actually, it's not a big deal if Pei Yourui can catch it or not, then He Lou Duhan has been lurking by Gu Xiang's side for twenty years, and under getting along day and night, even Gu Xiang has never suspected him, so what's the difficulty of deceiving the person next to him?" Pei Yourui's temperament is also slightly known to this palace, and Ben is not a particularly scheming person...... wants to open a gap from her and hold the Su family accountable, it is estimated that there is little hope! ”

As for Pei Yourui being pregnant with He Lou Duhan's child, the queen from Fengzhou Wei knows very well that such an important secret son as He Lou Duhan, while Fufeng Tang vigorously cultivates him, the means of domination must also emerge in endlessly!

After all, if it weren't for the fact that the Su family was desperate to use him now, according to normal development, he would be expected to be a marquis and worship the prime minister in the future.

At that time, in terms of apparent power, maybe the Su family is not as good as him, so why should he listen to the Su family again?

Therefore, while cultivating him, the Su family will definitely put layers of shackles on him, ensuring that even if he is a supreme minister, he will not be able to betray the Su family - so if he wants to use Pei Yourui and his heirs in the womb to blackmail He Lou Duhan to defect, in fact, there is little hope.

The reason why Empress Wei still ordered someone to find Pei Yourui was just to obey the destiny of heaven.

Xin Xian looked at the queen's gloomy appearance and felt uncomfortable, and couldn't help but whisper: "The Hengzhu Su family, including the Jihou Mansion, has been searched by us several times in the past two days!" Otherwise, simply ...... Su Shaoge's people"

"No way!" Empress Wei frowned when she heard this, but she shook her head categorically, "The foundation of the Su family is in Qingzhou, just killing Su Shaoge and others, although it can be angry for Xuan'er, but it will inevitably give King Su a reason not to come to the imperial capital - when the time comes, those children and staff of the Su family in Qingzhou will rush to King Su to assist, plus the accumulation of Duke Ji in the army in the early years...... Do you think that with just a small forbidden army, you can stop the armies scattered all over Darui from joining forces?! ”

This is where the advantage of deep roots lies, and even if you want to burn the jade with them, it is often because they are too large to die together.

"Now I hope that Dan Xuan'er can get better." Empress Wei said in a low voice, "Otherwise, I will support the King of Shu to ascend the throne - if you want to eradicate the entire Su family, without the help of imperial power, it is impossible!! ”

"Don't worry, mother! Even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is lacking, the forbidden army is still guarding inside and outside, and King Su wants to enter this imperial capital alive It is also wishful thinking! Xin Xian comforted, "When the time comes, let's see that the Su family's bamboo basket is empty, how to destroy it!" ”

Empress Wei let out a long sigh when she heard this, and secretly wondered in her heart: "I don't know how my father talked to He Wenqiong?" But I hope this person will not be shaken by the prince's serious injury! ”
