58, sharp on a rainy night
"I didn't mean that." Pei Qi opened sideways, and pushed with both hands in resistance: "The assassin has just entered the mansion, and it is clear that he is coming at you, and now that it is approaching, I am afraid that it will be dangerous for you to go out, so I ......."
"Well, that's a reasonable explanation." Rong Qin nodded, hooked his lips meaninglessly, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.
He ignored Pei Qi anymore, grabbed the saber on the table and left Qingxin Courtyard.
Maybe in the attic that day, Ye Rou had already met with Duan Qianjun, as for whether she had become Duan Qianjun's eyeliner......
He'll always find out.
It wasn't until Rong Qin completely left the Prime Minister's Mansion that Pei Qi came back to his senses from Fang Cai's questioning.
She didn't know what was wrong with what she had just said, but it was just a logical parental shortcoming, how could Rong Qin suddenly suspect her?
Also, the affairs in the palace have just come to an end, where is he going to take people away at this juncture?
Listening to his tone, it seemed like he was going to go on a long trip, Rong Qin's plan to seize the throne had failed, what else could he do before the Qiqiao Festival?
Although Jiang Fengchuan failed to ascend the throne, he still has the identity of a prison country, and half of the world in this court is still Rong Qin's after all.
So who can make Rong Qin leave the imperial capital overnight......
Dowager?
Could he ......
"Madam, Commander Tu is waiting outside with a meal, would you like to eat something?"
After thinking about it, Pei Qi's door was opened by Su Ying from the outside, and she stood respectfully on the left side of the door frame, and standing behind her were Tu You and a subordinate holding a food box.
Tu You?
Rong Qin went to find the Queen Mother, but he didn't take Tu Yu with him?
In her impression, Tu You has always been the right-hand man of the container, almost inseparable from him, why is it such an important matter, but Tu You was left in the Prime Minister's Mansion?
Or is it that Rong Qin didn't go to the Queen Mother at all?
"Ma'am?" Seeing Pei Qi in a daze, Su Ying tentatively shouted again.
And Pei Qi was also interrupted by this soft call.
She looked at Tu You and opened her mouth: "Put it in, I'll eat it later." ”
"Yes." Su Ying took the food box and nodded respectfully at Tu You.
She put the food box on the table and took out the food and set it up: "Madam, the slave and maid are waiting outside, you can call me if there is anything." ”
"Hmm."
After Su Ying left, Pei Qi turned sideways slightly and found a comfortable position for himself.
The things on the table were very rich, but she didn't have the slightest intention of feasting on them.
She also had to think about what to do next.
Right now, Duan Qianjun wants to kill her easily, he just needs to release the news to Rong Qin, expose Ye Rou's true identity, and Rong Qin will finish her off for him.
As for when Duan Qianjun wants to get rid of her, it all depends on her use value, that is, how much she can provide Duan Qianjun with about Rong Qin's movements.
Therefore, before her use value is consumed, she must first return the prince's innocence and rescue Jiang Mingcang from prison, so that Rong Qin's charge of instigating the prince to poison the first emperor will be self-defeating.
She will also be able to return to the court as a national teacher.
But how can she find out the evidence that the prince did not poison the first emperor......
At the moment, she is unable to move an inch in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so she has to find a way to find the wilderness and take the Zhaolan Hall back.
……
……
Pei Fu.
"What do you say? Was Pei Qi preventing Jiang Fengchuan from ascending the throne? ”
After hearing the spies say that Pei Qi appeared in the palace tonight, Pei Yunjiang slapped the table in disbelief.
He knew that Pei Qi was rescued by Jiang Lingfeng when he was executed in the court, but even so, how could Pei Qi, who had no power behind him, escape Rong Qin's net?
I didn't expect her to be alive and get Cui Shaogong's assistance!
You must know that although Cui Shaogong has never been involved in the Dasheng Dynasty, what he said is far more useful than those so-called high-ranking officials!
Pei Qi was a chess piece that he should have given up, but now it seems that it is still useful.
"Dad, what are we going to do? Are you going to find the eldest sister? Pei Liang, who was listening, took a bite of the apple in his hand, looked at his father vaguely and asked.
Pei Yunjiang just recovered from the shock, waved his hand to let the spies back down first, and sat back on the chair, brushing his beard with a solemn expression.
Looking for Pei Qi? Where to find it? Even Rong Qin hadn't discovered her hiding place, how could she find Pei Qi just by relying on the existing power of the Pei family?
Instead of looking for Pei Qi, it is better to ......
Find Pei Si's child first.
She still has that strange poison on her body, as long as she finds Pei Si, she is not afraid that she will not come.
Pei Yunjiang turned the wrench on his hand and turned his head in the direction of Pei Liang: "Where is that little four, where is that kid?" ”
"I don't know." Pei Liang shook his head: "I remember that he ran to the prison that day to save the eldest sister, and he hasn't seen him since." Why don't I ask the third room? ”
"No need."
Pei Yunjiang sighed helplessly when he heard this, and the sorrow came to his heart again.
If Xiao Si went to the prison and didn't die, then he would definitely be in Rong Qin's hands now.
If you want to ask for someone from Rong Qin's hands, how easy is it?
What's more, Rong Qin just suffered a defeat tonight, and to provoke him at this juncture is not pure death.
This matter needs to be considered in the long run.
……
Because she wanted to return to the imperial capital as soon as possible, the queen mother's carriage had no intention of stopping even when it arrived in Yujiang, and even took a shortcut and walked the staggered and complicated forest roads.
It's just that there are unforeseen circumstances, and not long after they entered the forest, God gave them a heavy rain.
The forest road was not very smooth, and the rain made the road full of mud, so they had to find a place to rest and wait for the rain to stop before hurrying.
The queen mother in the car was holding a Buddhist bead in her hand, closing her eyes and playing regularly, and she was still chanting words.
The fifth princess sitting beside her gently leaned on the inner arm of the carriage, lifted the curtain and looked at the rain outside the carriage, but only saw that the rain was getting heavier and heavier.
Jiang Xueyao pursed her mouth, stretched out her hand to catch the rain outside the window, and couldn't help complaining: "I don't know when this rain will stop, sooner or later, but at this time, it ......"
"Huh? That's ......"
Before Jiang Xueyao's question fell, a moment of silver suddenly flashed between the lush trees, and at the same time, the sharp flying knives that broke through the wind shot mercilessly towards the carriage.
Jiang Xueyao screamed, and hurriedly closed the curtain and pounced on the Queen Mother: "Imperial Grandma be careful!" ”
At the last moment, I saw that the two of them both fell on the soft collapse in the car, and the flying knife passed through the curtain of the car and should have shot into the heart of the Queen Mother, but because of Jiang Xueyao's movements, it staggered and brushed against the Queen Mother's mouth, smashing the string of Buddhist beads in her hand and scattering them all over the place.
"There are assassins, protect the Queen Mother and the Five Princesses!"
