Chapter 250 Don't Drink This Poisoned Wine

Chapter 250 Don't Drink This Poisoned Wine

After hearing Pei Ji's words, the old eunuch immediately stopped his steps, thinking in his heart: "Could it be that you really have something to say!?"

Watching the old eunuch stop, Pei Ji's heartbeat began to speed up, his eyes were always fixed on the old eunuch's sleeve robe, and whenever he looked at the old eunuch's sleeve robe, his back felt chilly.

The old eunuch snorted coldly and said, "Since Mr. Pei has something to say, please speak quickly!"

Pei Ji deliberately looked at the jug in his hand instead of looking out of the cell, so that the old eunuch could subconsciously think that he really wanted to die.

Immediately Pei Ji said: "Since the Holy Majesty sent troops to revolt, the veteran has followed the Holy Majesty, and thanks to the great love of the Holy Majesty, he has made the old minister the prime minister of the court!"

"However, today, it was the old minister who made friends carelessly and did not handle affairs well, which caused the old minister to lose his official position, making it difficult for him to continue serving the Holy Majesty!"

"I hope that after returning to the palace, the father-in-law can convey the message to the Holy One for the old minister! The old minister will use this last humble life to do his last meager effort for the Holy One"

The old eunuch finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking: "Finally, I've finished talking, I should be able to drink now!"

Immediately, the old eunuch said in a thin voice: "Since the words have been finished, Zajia will definitely bring the words to the Holy One for Mr. Pei! Please, Mr. Pei!"

At this time, Pei Ji heard the footsteps outside the cell getting closer, his eyes turned around, and he knelt down on one knee, raised the jug and shouted: "Old minister, go ahead!"

Sun Wuji, the elder outside the door, heard Pei Ji's impassioned shout, and shouted loudly: "Master Pei, wait a minute!"

After the old lady heard Changsun Wuji's voice, she pinched the orchid finger in a panic, pointed at Pei Ji and said, "Drink quickly~~~"

However, Pei Ji looked at the jug in his hand expressionlessly, and then opened the lid of the jug under the watchful eyes of the old eunuch.

At this time, Changsun Wuji had already arrived outside the cell, and he could already see the jug in Pei Ji's hand through the fence. He quickly shouted: "This wine is poisonous, Mr. Pei, please don't drink it!"

Hearing Changsun Wuji's shout, Pei Ji had a wry smile on his face, how could he not know that the wine was poisonous.

At this moment when the old eunuch was distracted, Pei Ji suddenly jumped up and directly splashed the poisoned wine in the flagon on the old eunuch's face.

"Ah~~ Old thief Pei~~ Are you going to rebel!?"

"Oh~ Zajia's eyes, Zajia's eyes~~~"

The old eunuch yelled and grabbed at random.

And this wine is not only strong wine, the poison in it can kill people in a short period of time, the dose must be quite a lot, so the old eunuch is probably blind.

Changsun Wuji said coldly to the jailer outside the door: "Come here! Arrest this eunuch and interrogate me severely!"

"We must find out who sent him to kill Zhongliang of our Tang Dynasty! Once found out, he will be severely punished!"

"Yes!" After the jailer outside the door took the order, he immediately arrested the old eunuch and those young eunuchs.

Although Changsun Wuji now wants to kill these eunuchs on the spot in a fit of anger, everything must have a cause and effect, and a process.

What's more, now is the critical moment for him to compete for the position of prime minister, and there must be no mistakes.

Pei Ji looked at Changsun Wuji and sighed helplessly. Even if the current emperor knew that this was done by the Supreme Emperor, would the emperor still seek justice for himself! ?
Changsun Wuji cupped his hands slightly to Pei Ji and said, "After receiving the news, I hurried to the prison, it seems it's not too late now!"

Pei Ji said indifferently: "Hmph! I don't know why Master Changsun came to save this old man!?"

"Could it be that you are afraid that you will be a step too late, and it will be difficult to take the old man's body back to the business!?"

Changsun Wuji said without changing his face: "The Holy Majesty has decreed that Mr. Pei is allowed to retire and return to his hometown because he has made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty for so many years and is old!"

Even though he said this, Changsun Wuji was thinking in his heart: "If this old thief Pei Ji is not eliminated for a day, I am afraid that the whole court will not be safe!"

"It's all because of that Bai Jingyi. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have to do my best to protect Pei Ji, and I wouldn't have to look at Pei Ji's old face here."

However, Pei Ji has been an official in the court for so many years, and he has seen how many ministers resigned and returned to their hometowns. To put it bluntly, they resigned from their old age and returned to their hometowns.
But right now is a chance to survive, and it is better than being poisoned to death in the sky prison and leaving a bad reputation for thousands of years.

Immediately, Pei Ji immediately changed his face and said: "Since the Holy Spirit passed down this decree, why is the old man still in the prison now!?"

Changsun Wuji really wanted to speak directly: "Isn't it because I was afraid that you would run around, so I was put in the prison?"

However, even though he thought so in his heart, he still had to respectfully say: "Master Pei has been an official for many years, and he should know that even though the Holy Majesty has issued an edict, it has to be drafted by Zhongshu, deliberated by his disciples, and finally approved by Shangshu. implement!"

"Now the prison is no longer safe. In order to ensure that Mr. Pei can return to his hometown safely when the imperial edict is issued, I would like to ask Mr. Pei to feel wronged and stay in the lower official's mansion temporarily!"

"As for the Holy Majesty, I will send someone to inform you!"

Pei Ji thought for a while, then changed his tone and said: "Master Changsun is really polite! Now the old man has been dismissed from office by the Holy One!"

"Where is it possible to be an official under the eldest grandson!"

Changsun Wuji straightened up after hearing this, and said to Pei Ji with a smile on his face: "Master Pei's political achievements in the court must be famous forever!"

"Naturally, he deserves to be an adult!"

After all, Changsun Wuji made a gesture of invitation to Pei Ji, and Pei Ji walked out of the cell without hesitation.

After all, the Supreme Emperor didn't kill himself this time, I'm afraid he will directly send Deadpool to kill himself in this prison next time!

Although Pei Ji is still a prisoner now, Changsun Wuji did not put him in handcuffs and shackles, but took him to the Zhao Mansion like picking up an old friend.

Then he ordered people to prepare a good wing room.
And all of this, Li Er didn't know anything about it, because all the people who sent the news sent the news to the palace, and even the news of bad people was sent directly to the palace. ,

Moreover, Li Er was on his way to the White Mansion at this time, and I am afraid that he would be able to understand what happened today only after he went back.

After a long journey, Li Er's Long Lun finally arrived at the gate of the White Mansion.

The old eunuch who accompanied Li Er held his shrill voice, and said to Li Er very respectfully: "My Majesty, the White House is here!"

The meaning of the words was to ask Li Er if he wanted to shout.

Li Er naturally understood the meaning of the old eunuch's words, but Li Er sighed deeply and said, "Oh~~ let's go in!"

After all, Li Er knew in his heart that even if the old eunuch informed him, Bai Jingyi would never come out to greet him!
