Jinyiwei work report
Chapter 103
Chang Liangzhu rubbed his hands nervously, he was afraid that Pei Huaixuan and Song Yingbai would not attend the appointment.
However, fortunately, after waiting for a long time, I heard a servant report that Pei Zhenfu and Song Baihu had arrived.
"Invite them to come in."
In fact, he blamed himself for his carelessness. Pei Huaixuan and Song Yingbai always walked together. If they weren't broken sleeves, they could only be brothers. Why didn't he think of that.
Soon, Pei Huaixuan and Song Yingbai walked in, and Chang Liangzhu put on a gentle smile, "Please sit down, both of you."
"You don't need to sit." Pei Huaixuan said with a cold face, "Have you thought it through?"
Chang Liangzhu asked Pei Huaixuan to come to the appointment, the intention was to anger him, so he didn't waste time, and quickly got to the point, "I am the head of all officials, and you are just a fourth-rank appeasement, dare to talk to me like that, yes Because of what? I don’t think I owe you.”
Song Yingbai frowned, "It seems that you already know who we are."
"It was all a misunderstanding back then..." Chang Liangzhu put on an innocent look, "You were young at that time, so what can you remember, so can you listen to my explanation."
"Shut up!" Pei Huaixuan wanted to tear the other party apart, "I did signal before that I couldn't remember you, so I didn't recognize you, but a few days ago, I remembered, from the moment I remembered , your life is doomed not to stay!" Pei Huaixuan approached step by step, "You just accept the move!"
Chang Liangzhu was so frightened that he hid in the corner, "Don't come here."
Song Yingbai also persuaded: "Brother, don't be impulsive." He stepped forward and pulled Pei Huaixuan away, "Since he already knows who we are, let's come here today."
Pei Huaixuan took a deep breath, and seemed to feel that it was not the time, and looked at his younger brother, "Then let's go."
Unexpectedly, Chang Liangzhu, who was hiding in the corner at this time, suddenly shouted loudly: "Pei Huaixuan, what, what are you going to do? Help, help—"
In the dead of night, this voice cut through the night sky and spread far away.
Song Yingbai said fiercely: "What are you yelling?!"
"Help, don't kill me, help—" Chang Liangzhu yelled like killing a pig, his voice was terrified, but his expression had a smug smile.
Pei Huaixuan was startled suddenly, "No! Brother, let's go!"
When Song Yingbai heard this, he hurried to pull the door, but at this moment the door and window were suddenly closed. He hurried to pull, but it was obvious that someone was pulling him outside, and his strength was not weak, "Brother, what's going on?"
Pei Huaixuan pointed at Chang Liangzhu and sneered, "Don't tell me you want to have a Hongmen Banquet? Do you think your men can beat us?"
Song Yingbai was no longer in a hurry to find the exit by pulling on the doors and windows, but touched his saber and said with a sneer, "Then let's try."
Just when the two brothers were preparing to fight, Pei Huaixuan moved his nose and said in surprise, "No! It's Mixiang!"
Song Yingbai's eyes widened because of surprise, "Mixiang?" He rushed to the door again, but this time, he felt the power flow from his body, his whole body was limp and weak, and the things in front of him became more and more blurred.
He turned his head and saw that Chang Liangzhu was pinching his neck hard. His brother could still stand, but he was also staggering, "Brother...this..."
After Song Yingbai said a few words, his tongue went numb, and he fell to the ground very quickly.
In a daze, he saw his brother also fell to the ground, and then he completely lost consciousness.
After an unknown amount of time, he felt a pain in his chest, opened his eyes, and saw his brother standing in front of him, the room was full of people, and Chang Liangzhu was lying on the ground not far away, with a purple circle around his neck. There are pinch marks, eyes are rounded, tongue is half stuck out, it looks like he is dead.
"Pei Huaixuan, return my husband!" A crying woman in her thirties rushed towards Pei Huaixuan, tearing and beating her.
Pei Huaixuan was obviously still dizzy, but when she was thrown by this woman, she took a step back and almost knocked over the table, "I...I didn't..."
"Stop!" Song Yingbai wanted to support the wall and stand up, but his feet softened and he half knelt on the ground again.
At this time, a knife was placed on his neck, "You killed Shoufu, do you still want to move?"
"What?" Song Yingbai was shocked, "We don't know anything, someone used Mixiang, someone must have taken advantage of our confusion and came in to kill Shoufu!"
The first assistant's wife pointed at Pei Huaixuan in tears and said, "Before you knocked open the door, you were the only ones in this room. Everyone here saw it clearly. Do you still want to argue?"
Pei Huaixuan's face was gloomy, as if she knew that she was being swayed, and as soon as she lowered her head, she was about to rush out, but the medicine hadn't receded before she took a step, her legs went limp, and she was held down by the people around her.
Seeing his elder brother being captured, Song Yingbai beat him up in a rage, "This is a trap, your skills are not servants at all, I am afraid that you are from Dongchang, you have ambushed a long time ago, you set up a trap to frame us!"
Pei Huaixuan was still physically weak, let alone him, who was clenched by the opponent's fist, folded his backhand, and pressed to the ground.
At this time, someone said above his head, "You are finished."
-
It has always been Song Yingbai who imprisoned others, but this time it was replaced by him being imprisoned in a big prison, the feeling is really uncomfortable.
It is dark and humid, and there are unknown mice that sneak past you from time to time. They are not afraid of people at all, and they will bite people when they find the right time.
It has been three days since the death of Shoufu, and he has been locked in the prison of Imperial Prison, isolated from the outside world.
Fortunately, it was Jin Yiwei's cell, so his food and drink were taken care of, and his diet was fairly clean.
For the past three days, he didn't know if the aftereffects of the drugs were still there, he was in a daze, and would fall asleep if he didn't pay attention.
He looked at the window of the sky, knew it was daytime, looked at it, felt sleepy, and dozed off again.
Suddenly, there was a bustling sound outside, and someone said: "Master Li and Dugong Cao are here."
Song Yingbai didn't even change his posture, sitting in the corner with his knees hugged, watching the cell door slowly open, revealing Li Zhen with a helpless face and Cao Xiang with a slightly satisfied face.
Li Zhen saw that the environment in the house was bad, so he hurriedly said: "Song Yingbai, get up quickly, you can go."
"What about Pei Zhenfu?" Song Yingbai said: "How is he? Is everything cleared up? Are we both okay?"
"Pei Huaixuan?" Cao Xiang smiled and said, "He admitted it."
"Admit what?" Song Yingbai jumped up and asked sharply.
"Admit that he killed the chief assistant." Cao Xiang said, "At that time there were only the two of you in the room. He didn't admit it, so did you admit it?"
Song Yingbai's eyes turned red, "This is a false accusation. Just as we were about to leave, someone took drugs!"
Cao Xiang raised his eyebrows, "I said Song Yingbai, your red lips and white teeth are a false accusation, and there is no evidence. But on the other hand, the whole family of the chief assistant watched you enter the house with Mr. Chang, and no one After coming out, Mr. Chang called for help, and then rushed in, and the others died, but you were the only ones present. Wu Zuo has experienced the real body, and he is Chang Shoufu. Then you say, if Pei Huaixuan didn't kill people, then you killed them Is it?"
"He took the charge to protect me..." Song Yingbai's lips trembled, resentful, and he rushed to beat Cao Xiang like crazy, "You've got this right!"
Li Zhen stopped Song Yingbai and hugged him aside, "Don't be impulsive! Otherwise, it would be meaningless for Pei Huaixuan to protect you. He just took over everything because he didn't want you to suffer!"
Cao Xiang sighed, "It's really strange. Pei Huaixuan's character is not afraid of anything. It is almost impossible to get him to plead guilty. I still have a headache, but it's strange to say. I just told him that if he If you don’t admit it, then you will torture Song Yingbai, after thinking about it all night, he begged for peace and admitted it.”
"A dog! You are despicable!" Song Yingbai wanted to kill Cao Xiang.
Seeing this, Li Zhen hurriedly hugged Song Yingbai outside, and said in his mouth: "Okay, you have been released! Let's go!"
Cao Xiang raised his eyebrows and smiled, and suddenly felt a little disappointed. It turned out that the opponent was only this level. He had been too careful all the time. In fact, once he made a move, the opponent was not enough.
At this time, Song Yingbai shouted: "Fake, the first assistant is not dead! He took the fake death drug, and everything was planned by you!"
Li Zhen covered Song Yingbai's mouth, "There is no proof, so please stop saying a few words now!"
Cao Xiang expected that Song Yingbai would think of this, and he didn't panic when he was exposed, "What are you talking about, Wu Zuo has already experienced it, Chang Shoufu is indeed dead, the emperor already knows, do you want to say that Dongchang deceived the emperor? ?!"
Li Zhen said to Song Yingbai with a bitter face: "Because Pei Huaixuan is a member of our Jinyiwei, the emperor no longer trusts us, and the people in Dongchang are responsible."
"It's a fake to anyone!" Song Yingbai yelled: "I know Datura pollen can do this!"
Cao Xiang curled his lips, and said to Li Zhen: "Master Li, look at what crazy things Song Yingbai said? Return mandala pollen, fake death medicine? I think he is so stimulated that his mind has gone, take him away quickly. .”
"Let's go, let's go!" Li Zhen dragged Song Yingbai out forcibly, "It won't help if you are so impulsive!"
Hearing this, Song Yingbai pushed Li Zhen away, and walked away angrily.
Looking at the backs of the two, Cao Xiang snorted a few times, "Idiot."
Jiang Pao came over and said from the side: "They must not be reconciled to losing like this."
"I know, I will go to the emperor to intercede. I will also mention the speculation that Shoufu took the fake death drug." Cao Xiang smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't say it. If you say it, you're really asking for a dead end."
After thinking for a while, Jiang Pai understood what Duke Du meant, and couldn't help showing a bright smile.
-
With Li Zhen threading needles and building bridges, the emperor decided to summon Song Yingbai once. After all, he is Pei Huaixuan's younger brother, and he needs to explain such a big thing.
Zhu Shengze had a gloomy face, and when Song Yingbai came in, he stared at him, "I heard from people in Dongchang that Pei Huaixuan pleaded guilty."
Li Zhen saw it, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, there is something strange about this matter."
"He has already pleaded guilty, so what else could be wrong?" Zhu Shengze first hated Pei Huaixuan's arrogance and audacity, and second hated why it wasn't Song Yingbai who pleaded guilty.
Song Yingbai immediately knelt down and begged with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, only you can save my brother. He was wronged. We were invited to the Shoufu's appointment that day, but we were stunned by drugs not long after entering. Then, When we wake up, Shoufu dies, it really has nothing to do with us."
Zhu Shengze said in a cold voice: "Didn't I ever doubt it? But the first assistant was strangled to death, so could it be that he committed suicide? And the corpse has been tested, so it is Chang Liangzhu's infallibility! I knew before that Pei Huaixuan had been I turned a blind eye to trouble Shoufu, and didn't hit him, I didn't expect him to dare to commit such a crime!"
Song Yingbai hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the reason why we trouble Chang Liangzhu is because he is our sworn enemy, and our parents died at the hands of him..."
"What?" Zhu Shengze almost stood up in shock, but then sat down slowly, "Say!"
Song Yingbai briefly explained what happened, "I was young at the time, so I can't remember many things, but my brother remembers it very clearly, and he can't be wrong. That person is Chang Liangzhu. He killed our parents. This enemy I have to report it! Your Majesty, seeing the enemy is right in front of you, how can you tell us to sit idly by?
But he is the chief assistant, with a high position and authority, and we can't move him, only his nephews and relatives, but we really never thought about killing Chang Liangzhu, and even if we did, we wouldn't do it at his house. "
Li Zhen hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty, even if Pei Huaixuan really wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't be so stupid as to do it at Chang Liangzhu's house."
Zhu Shengze's eyes sank. It turned out that Pei Huaixuan had such a blood feud...
But soon, he figured out another thing, that is, Pei Huaixuan wanted to take revenge, and the chief assistant was very powerful. If he wanted to move him, he had to rely on him, the emperor.
So he started to get close to him, by the way, maybe even Song Yingbai made a mistake, and it was intentional to catch him.
Zhu Shengze suppressed his anger, and sneered, "Yeah, how could Pei Huaixuan be so stupid, he is shrewd!"
Song Yingbai didn't seem to notice the emperor's strangeness, "Yes, my brother would never make such a mistake. It was the first assistant who framed him. I suspect that the first assistant took fake death medicine and intentionally faked his death, so that my brother was imprisoned. , he escaped from his shell. Now the Dongchang people are preventing our Jinyiwei people from touching Shoufu's body, there must be something strange in it."
"Fake death medicine?" Zhu Shengze was stunned, how many daring lunatics in this world would dare to lie to him!When is he?Is it the little boy that everyone can bully? !
Seeing that things had turned around, Li Zhen said, "That's right, it's the medicine for feigning death! The chief assistant will be buried tomorrow. If the emperor allows it, I want to go and have a look now, maybe I can see the chief assistant who faked his death."
What the emperor hates the most is being deceived, and he will not let go of even a trace of suspicion. Besides, he also thinks that Pei Huaixuan will not be so stupid as to really strangle the first assistant, "Well, Li Zhen, go and have a look, I'm right here Wait for news here."
Song Yingbai hurriedly said: "I will go too!"
When Zhu Shengze heard this, he became very angry, "Your brother is suspected of murder, and you are also one of the accomplices, so you're going to come here now?!"
When Song Yingbai heard that it made sense, he quickly lowered his head, "What the emperor said is true."
"I don't think you brothers are that smart!" Zhu Shengze urged, "Li Zhen, go quickly, Song Yingbai will stay here."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhen quickly retreated out of the palace.
When Li Zhen left, Song Yingbai knelt on the ground to listen to the order, but Zhu Shengze ignored him, just flipped through the memorial, and glanced at Song Yingbai from time to time, seeing him biting his nails and lips, completely confused Can't help being a little annoyed.
Time passed bit by bit, and about an hour later, Li Zhen came back with a very ugly face.
Song Yingbai looked at him and quickly asked, "What's the matter? Did you find anything?"
Li Zhen shook his head with a bitter face, and the light in Song Yingbai's eyes suddenly disappeared. The emperor saw all this and asked, "How is it?"
Li Zhen said truthfully: "...there is indeed a corpse in the coffin..."
Zhu Shengze made a fist with his left hand, and slapped the Zhubi on the table with his right hand.
Li Zhen quickly added, "However, there is something wrong with the preservation of the corpse by the Chang family. The corpse is a little swollen. I don't think it looks like Chang Shoufu..."
"Enough!" Zhu Shengze shouted loudly, got up and walked to Li Zhen, pointing at Song Yingbai first, then at Li Zhen, "I already know what's going on.
There are two possibilities. First, that night, you and Pei Huaixuan had a disagreement and quarreled. With Pei Huaixuan's temper, it is not impossible to kill someone by mistake!
Second, Pei Huaixuan wants to take revenge, but Chang Liangzhu sees it through, so he will die, and would rather sacrifice himself to frame him!Tell me, which one is the truth? "
"My brother definitely didn't kill anyone. Your Majesty, you have to believe him." Song Yingbai choked up and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, you must save him."
"You asked me to protect him?" Zhu Shengze said angrily.
Song Yingbai hurriedly lowered his head, "No, it's just... I hope the emperor will save him..."
Zhu Shengze was full of anger. What Pei Huaixuan killed was not a cat or a dog, but the dignified chief assistant. He wanted to let him go, but would he be able to let him go?The facts are undeniable, he has admitted to murder, how many people are watching, Pei Huaixuan must go through the joint trial of the three divisions.
Zhu Shengze has been on the throne for so many years, and he has always been able to handle it with ease. No matter what it is, it is firmly in his hands. He has never been so powerless as he is now.
"Li Zhen, take him away and watch him. If you can't take care of him, you can go idle!" Zhu Shengze said, "Take him away."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please save my brother. He has been living so hard for so many years. He finally met his enemy, but he was still wronged. Only you can save him..."
Li Zhen covered Song Yingbai's mouth and pulled him out, "Stop talking about you!"
Hearing Song Yingbai's voice getting farther and farther away, Zhu Shengze angrily swept all the memorials on the table to the ground.
Lu Gonggong came in stooping, "Your Majesty...this..."
"roll!"
"Yes." Eunuch Lu was about to shrink his neck and exit.
"Come back!" Zhu Shengze called him back again, "Make arrangements, I'm going to see Pei Huaixuan."
"But your majesty, if you go to see Pei Huaixuan now, the risk is too great."
Zhu Shengze frowned, and said coldly: "I repeat, I want to see Pei Huaixuan."
"Yes, I'll do it now, slave." Eunuch Lu didn't dare to offend the emperor, so he got busy.
Zhu Shengze was really very angry. He didn't know about the quarrel between Pei Huaixuan and the chief assistant before, and he just thought that Pei Huaixuan was arrogant and domineering, but he didn't take it to heart.
Hearing Song Yingbai tell about their enmity with Chang Liangzhu today, he realized that he was being used by Pei Huaixuan.
"Pei Huaixuan, Pei Huaixuan, if you have you, dare to plot against me."
-
When Pei Huaixuan heard the sound of the prison door being opened, he sat up halfway, glanced lazily, "Li Zhen?"
When someone took off his hat and showed his face, he suddenly became energetic, "Your Majesty?"
Before Zhu Shengze came, he was looking forward to seeing Pei Huaixuan, and he was full of things to say, but when he actually saw him, he found that he couldn't say a word.
Pei Huaixuan quickly stood up and cleaned the grass stalks off her body, "Your Majesty, you have come to see me."
Zhu Shengze laughed at himself, "Yeah, I've come to see you, why do you want to beg me? Didn't you ignore my love before? When you're in trouble, just think of me? I probably can only use you value."
"Your Majesty, I was really wronged. The reason I admit it is because I don't want Song Yingbai to suffer."
Zhu Shengze retorted casually, "Yeah, you don't want your brother to suffer, so you admit it because you think I will save you, and you don't want to die, right?"
"Difficult, isn't it right?"
"You have a good plan!" Zhu Shengze exposed it mercilessly, "You deliberately let your brother be domineering, and gave me a clue to let me get into your trap. Let me help you clean up the first assistant, what a pity. Chazi, you were put together by the chief assistant, you have no real feelings, but now you want me to really save you, how dare you?"
Pei Huaixuan was startled, wondering if it was because of being tortured in prison, her lips were bloodless.
With a sneer in his eyes, Zhu Shengze stared at Pei Huaixuan, wanting to see what he could say.
Unexpectedly, Pei Huaixuan let out a long breath, and when he looked up again, his eyes were full of disdain, "Since you know, I have nothing to say."
"There's nothing to say?" Although Zhu Shengze knew that Pei Huaixuan was cruel, he didn't expect him to be so tough in prison.
"Then what do you want to hear?" Pei Huaixuan suddenly grabbed the other person's arm angrily, and said fiercely, "I actually hate you very much. Do you want to hear this sentence?"
Zhu Shengze choked for breath, and couldn't tell what it was like.
"Chang Liangzhu killed my parents, am I still human if I don't take revenge? For this purpose, I can pay any price! So think about it, if it's not for revenge, I wouldn't even say a word to you! "
Zhu Shengze said angrily: "Pei Huaixuan, you really are not afraid of death!"
"You don't need to kill me. The crime of killing the first assistant is enough to kill me. I'm already a death row prisoner. I don't have a chance to make a comeback. Do you think I don't know?"
Pei Huaixuan's attitude was bad, but Zhu Shengze's attitude was better, "...I can let you change your identity."
"And then? Accompany you with a new identity?" Pei Huaixuan laughed dumbfounded, "I'd rather die."
"You will regret it." Zhu Shengze said.
Pei Huaixuan pushed him, snorted a few times, turned and walked towards the haystack, obviously not wanting to talk to the emperor.
Zhu Shengze felt depressed, "I'm giving you a chance, just forget it!"
"What you gave is not called a chance, but a reminder to kill me."
Zhu Shengze was dizzy with anger, and said with a sneer, "Since you chose the latter before Zhenhe died, then you have to, you really deserve to die."
Pei Huaixuan stopped suddenly, then turned abruptly and came to Zhu Shengze, pinched his chin, and said with a sinister smile, "I'd rather die than have any interest in fucking you!"
Zhu Shengze's Adam's apple twitched.
Pei Huaixuan raised her eyebrows, and said with a snort, "What, what do you think? Do you want to try? It's right here!" Then, he squeezed Zhu Shengze's wrist tightly, and pushed him down onto the haystack.
Zhu Shengze was thrown heavily to the ground, seeing Pei Huaixuan who was approaching step by step, obviously not caring about anything, shouted: "Come here—come here—"
As soon as the guard opened the door and came in, he stood up and rushed out the door.
When he came to the corridor, he leaned on the wall, panted excitedly, looked back at the cell for a long time, and then left under the escort of the guards.
Not long after returning to the palace, Zhu Shengze summoned Li Zhen again to discuss countermeasures, "...I've thought about it, Chang Liangzhu really deserves to die, Pei Huaixuan was framed..."
Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, "Your Majesty, are you going to pardon Pei Huaixuan?"
"A pardon is impossible, steal the dragon and turn it into a phoenix."
"No problem, as long as you allow the emperor, then everything will be easy." Li Zhen exhaled again and again, "Great, great, Pei Huaixuan was saved, and Song Yingbai will not quarrel with me again."
Zhu Shengze was in a much better mood, and said with a smile, "Did he fight with you because of this?"
"Yeah, I'm worried. But now that the emperor has said this, I feel at ease." Li Zhen glanced at the emperor.
Zhu Shengze said slowly: "It's not necessarily a bad thing for Pei Huaixuan to be deflated, you can be more honest in the future."
"Chang Liangzhu died, and Pei Huaixuan got his revenge. He has no reason to be dishonest." Li Zhen said.
A smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Shengze's mouth, and he was reminiscing about what happened in the cell this afternoon, when Eunuch Lu walked in with a livid face, and said in a dazed voice, "... Your Majesty, something has happened."
Zhu Shengze thought, what else could happen, "Tell me."
"Your Majesty, Pei Huaixuan... is dead."
Zhu Shengze was startled, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears, "You said Pei Huaixuan is dead?"
Eunuch Lu nodded, "That's right, it was the news from the prison that it was a suicide, and the jailer had already passed away for a long time when he found out."
However, fortunately, after waiting for a long time, I heard a servant report that Pei Zhenfu and Song Baihu had arrived.
"Invite them to come in."
In fact, he blamed himself for his carelessness. Pei Huaixuan and Song Yingbai always walked together. If they weren't broken sleeves, they could only be brothers. Why didn't he think of that.
Soon, Pei Huaixuan and Song Yingbai walked in, and Chang Liangzhu put on a gentle smile, "Please sit down, both of you."
"You don't need to sit." Pei Huaixuan said with a cold face, "Have you thought it through?"
Chang Liangzhu asked Pei Huaixuan to come to the appointment, the intention was to anger him, so he didn't waste time, and quickly got to the point, "I am the head of all officials, and you are just a fourth-rank appeasement, dare to talk to me like that, yes Because of what? I don’t think I owe you.”
Song Yingbai frowned, "It seems that you already know who we are."
"It was all a misunderstanding back then..." Chang Liangzhu put on an innocent look, "You were young at that time, so what can you remember, so can you listen to my explanation."
"Shut up!" Pei Huaixuan wanted to tear the other party apart, "I did signal before that I couldn't remember you, so I didn't recognize you, but a few days ago, I remembered, from the moment I remembered , your life is doomed not to stay!" Pei Huaixuan approached step by step, "You just accept the move!"
Chang Liangzhu was so frightened that he hid in the corner, "Don't come here."
Song Yingbai also persuaded: "Brother, don't be impulsive." He stepped forward and pulled Pei Huaixuan away, "Since he already knows who we are, let's come here today."
Pei Huaixuan took a deep breath, and seemed to feel that it was not the time, and looked at his younger brother, "Then let's go."
Unexpectedly, Chang Liangzhu, who was hiding in the corner at this time, suddenly shouted loudly: "Pei Huaixuan, what, what are you going to do? Help, help—"
In the dead of night, this voice cut through the night sky and spread far away.
Song Yingbai said fiercely: "What are you yelling?!"
"Help, don't kill me, help—" Chang Liangzhu yelled like killing a pig, his voice was terrified, but his expression had a smug smile.
Pei Huaixuan was startled suddenly, "No! Brother, let's go!"
When Song Yingbai heard this, he hurried to pull the door, but at this moment the door and window were suddenly closed. He hurried to pull, but it was obvious that someone was pulling him outside, and his strength was not weak, "Brother, what's going on?"
Pei Huaixuan pointed at Chang Liangzhu and sneered, "Don't tell me you want to have a Hongmen Banquet? Do you think your men can beat us?"
Song Yingbai was no longer in a hurry to find the exit by pulling on the doors and windows, but touched his saber and said with a sneer, "Then let's try."
Just when the two brothers were preparing to fight, Pei Huaixuan moved his nose and said in surprise, "No! It's Mixiang!"
Song Yingbai's eyes widened because of surprise, "Mixiang?" He rushed to the door again, but this time, he felt the power flow from his body, his whole body was limp and weak, and the things in front of him became more and more blurred.
He turned his head and saw that Chang Liangzhu was pinching his neck hard. His brother could still stand, but he was also staggering, "Brother...this..."
After Song Yingbai said a few words, his tongue went numb, and he fell to the ground very quickly.
In a daze, he saw his brother also fell to the ground, and then he completely lost consciousness.
After an unknown amount of time, he felt a pain in his chest, opened his eyes, and saw his brother standing in front of him, the room was full of people, and Chang Liangzhu was lying on the ground not far away, with a purple circle around his neck. There are pinch marks, eyes are rounded, tongue is half stuck out, it looks like he is dead.
"Pei Huaixuan, return my husband!" A crying woman in her thirties rushed towards Pei Huaixuan, tearing and beating her.
Pei Huaixuan was obviously still dizzy, but when she was thrown by this woman, she took a step back and almost knocked over the table, "I...I didn't..."
"Stop!" Song Yingbai wanted to support the wall and stand up, but his feet softened and he half knelt on the ground again.
At this time, a knife was placed on his neck, "You killed Shoufu, do you still want to move?"
"What?" Song Yingbai was shocked, "We don't know anything, someone used Mixiang, someone must have taken advantage of our confusion and came in to kill Shoufu!"
The first assistant's wife pointed at Pei Huaixuan in tears and said, "Before you knocked open the door, you were the only ones in this room. Everyone here saw it clearly. Do you still want to argue?"
Pei Huaixuan's face was gloomy, as if she knew that she was being swayed, and as soon as she lowered her head, she was about to rush out, but the medicine hadn't receded before she took a step, her legs went limp, and she was held down by the people around her.
Seeing his elder brother being captured, Song Yingbai beat him up in a rage, "This is a trap, your skills are not servants at all, I am afraid that you are from Dongchang, you have ambushed a long time ago, you set up a trap to frame us!"
Pei Huaixuan was still physically weak, let alone him, who was clenched by the opponent's fist, folded his backhand, and pressed to the ground.
At this time, someone said above his head, "You are finished."
-
It has always been Song Yingbai who imprisoned others, but this time it was replaced by him being imprisoned in a big prison, the feeling is really uncomfortable.
It is dark and humid, and there are unknown mice that sneak past you from time to time. They are not afraid of people at all, and they will bite people when they find the right time.
It has been three days since the death of Shoufu, and he has been locked in the prison of Imperial Prison, isolated from the outside world.
Fortunately, it was Jin Yiwei's cell, so his food and drink were taken care of, and his diet was fairly clean.
For the past three days, he didn't know if the aftereffects of the drugs were still there, he was in a daze, and would fall asleep if he didn't pay attention.
He looked at the window of the sky, knew it was daytime, looked at it, felt sleepy, and dozed off again.
Suddenly, there was a bustling sound outside, and someone said: "Master Li and Dugong Cao are here."
Song Yingbai didn't even change his posture, sitting in the corner with his knees hugged, watching the cell door slowly open, revealing Li Zhen with a helpless face and Cao Xiang with a slightly satisfied face.
Li Zhen saw that the environment in the house was bad, so he hurriedly said: "Song Yingbai, get up quickly, you can go."
"What about Pei Zhenfu?" Song Yingbai said: "How is he? Is everything cleared up? Are we both okay?"
"Pei Huaixuan?" Cao Xiang smiled and said, "He admitted it."
"Admit what?" Song Yingbai jumped up and asked sharply.
"Admit that he killed the chief assistant." Cao Xiang said, "At that time there were only the two of you in the room. He didn't admit it, so did you admit it?"
Song Yingbai's eyes turned red, "This is a false accusation. Just as we were about to leave, someone took drugs!"
Cao Xiang raised his eyebrows, "I said Song Yingbai, your red lips and white teeth are a false accusation, and there is no evidence. But on the other hand, the whole family of the chief assistant watched you enter the house with Mr. Chang, and no one After coming out, Mr. Chang called for help, and then rushed in, and the others died, but you were the only ones present. Wu Zuo has experienced the real body, and he is Chang Shoufu. Then you say, if Pei Huaixuan didn't kill people, then you killed them Is it?"
"He took the charge to protect me..." Song Yingbai's lips trembled, resentful, and he rushed to beat Cao Xiang like crazy, "You've got this right!"
Li Zhen stopped Song Yingbai and hugged him aside, "Don't be impulsive! Otherwise, it would be meaningless for Pei Huaixuan to protect you. He just took over everything because he didn't want you to suffer!"
Cao Xiang sighed, "It's really strange. Pei Huaixuan's character is not afraid of anything. It is almost impossible to get him to plead guilty. I still have a headache, but it's strange to say. I just told him that if he If you don’t admit it, then you will torture Song Yingbai, after thinking about it all night, he begged for peace and admitted it.”
"A dog! You are despicable!" Song Yingbai wanted to kill Cao Xiang.
Seeing this, Li Zhen hurriedly hugged Song Yingbai outside, and said in his mouth: "Okay, you have been released! Let's go!"
Cao Xiang raised his eyebrows and smiled, and suddenly felt a little disappointed. It turned out that the opponent was only this level. He had been too careful all the time. In fact, once he made a move, the opponent was not enough.
At this time, Song Yingbai shouted: "Fake, the first assistant is not dead! He took the fake death drug, and everything was planned by you!"
Li Zhen covered Song Yingbai's mouth, "There is no proof, so please stop saying a few words now!"
Cao Xiang expected that Song Yingbai would think of this, and he didn't panic when he was exposed, "What are you talking about, Wu Zuo has already experienced it, Chang Shoufu is indeed dead, the emperor already knows, do you want to say that Dongchang deceived the emperor? ?!"
Li Zhen said to Song Yingbai with a bitter face: "Because Pei Huaixuan is a member of our Jinyiwei, the emperor no longer trusts us, and the people in Dongchang are responsible."
"It's a fake to anyone!" Song Yingbai yelled: "I know Datura pollen can do this!"
Cao Xiang curled his lips, and said to Li Zhen: "Master Li, look at what crazy things Song Yingbai said? Return mandala pollen, fake death medicine? I think he is so stimulated that his mind has gone, take him away quickly. .”
"Let's go, let's go!" Li Zhen dragged Song Yingbai out forcibly, "It won't help if you are so impulsive!"
Hearing this, Song Yingbai pushed Li Zhen away, and walked away angrily.
Looking at the backs of the two, Cao Xiang snorted a few times, "Idiot."
Jiang Pao came over and said from the side: "They must not be reconciled to losing like this."
"I know, I will go to the emperor to intercede. I will also mention the speculation that Shoufu took the fake death drug." Cao Xiang smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't say it. If you say it, you're really asking for a dead end."
After thinking for a while, Jiang Pai understood what Duke Du meant, and couldn't help showing a bright smile.
-
With Li Zhen threading needles and building bridges, the emperor decided to summon Song Yingbai once. After all, he is Pei Huaixuan's younger brother, and he needs to explain such a big thing.
Zhu Shengze had a gloomy face, and when Song Yingbai came in, he stared at him, "I heard from people in Dongchang that Pei Huaixuan pleaded guilty."
Li Zhen saw it, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, there is something strange about this matter."
"He has already pleaded guilty, so what else could be wrong?" Zhu Shengze first hated Pei Huaixuan's arrogance and audacity, and second hated why it wasn't Song Yingbai who pleaded guilty.
Song Yingbai immediately knelt down and begged with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, only you can save my brother. He was wronged. We were invited to the Shoufu's appointment that day, but we were stunned by drugs not long after entering. Then, When we wake up, Shoufu dies, it really has nothing to do with us."
Zhu Shengze said in a cold voice: "Didn't I ever doubt it? But the first assistant was strangled to death, so could it be that he committed suicide? And the corpse has been tested, so it is Chang Liangzhu's infallibility! I knew before that Pei Huaixuan had been I turned a blind eye to trouble Shoufu, and didn't hit him, I didn't expect him to dare to commit such a crime!"
Song Yingbai hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the reason why we trouble Chang Liangzhu is because he is our sworn enemy, and our parents died at the hands of him..."
"What?" Zhu Shengze almost stood up in shock, but then sat down slowly, "Say!"
Song Yingbai briefly explained what happened, "I was young at the time, so I can't remember many things, but my brother remembers it very clearly, and he can't be wrong. That person is Chang Liangzhu. He killed our parents. This enemy I have to report it! Your Majesty, seeing the enemy is right in front of you, how can you tell us to sit idly by?
But he is the chief assistant, with a high position and authority, and we can't move him, only his nephews and relatives, but we really never thought about killing Chang Liangzhu, and even if we did, we wouldn't do it at his house. "
Li Zhen hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty, even if Pei Huaixuan really wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't be so stupid as to do it at Chang Liangzhu's house."
Zhu Shengze's eyes sank. It turned out that Pei Huaixuan had such a blood feud...
But soon, he figured out another thing, that is, Pei Huaixuan wanted to take revenge, and the chief assistant was very powerful. If he wanted to move him, he had to rely on him, the emperor.
So he started to get close to him, by the way, maybe even Song Yingbai made a mistake, and it was intentional to catch him.
Zhu Shengze suppressed his anger, and sneered, "Yeah, how could Pei Huaixuan be so stupid, he is shrewd!"
Song Yingbai didn't seem to notice the emperor's strangeness, "Yes, my brother would never make such a mistake. It was the first assistant who framed him. I suspect that the first assistant took fake death medicine and intentionally faked his death, so that my brother was imprisoned. , he escaped from his shell. Now the Dongchang people are preventing our Jinyiwei people from touching Shoufu's body, there must be something strange in it."
"Fake death medicine?" Zhu Shengze was stunned, how many daring lunatics in this world would dare to lie to him!When is he?Is it the little boy that everyone can bully? !
Seeing that things had turned around, Li Zhen said, "That's right, it's the medicine for feigning death! The chief assistant will be buried tomorrow. If the emperor allows it, I want to go and have a look now, maybe I can see the chief assistant who faked his death."
What the emperor hates the most is being deceived, and he will not let go of even a trace of suspicion. Besides, he also thinks that Pei Huaixuan will not be so stupid as to really strangle the first assistant, "Well, Li Zhen, go and have a look, I'm right here Wait for news here."
Song Yingbai hurriedly said: "I will go too!"
When Zhu Shengze heard this, he became very angry, "Your brother is suspected of murder, and you are also one of the accomplices, so you're going to come here now?!"
When Song Yingbai heard that it made sense, he quickly lowered his head, "What the emperor said is true."
"I don't think you brothers are that smart!" Zhu Shengze urged, "Li Zhen, go quickly, Song Yingbai will stay here."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhen quickly retreated out of the palace.
When Li Zhen left, Song Yingbai knelt on the ground to listen to the order, but Zhu Shengze ignored him, just flipped through the memorial, and glanced at Song Yingbai from time to time, seeing him biting his nails and lips, completely confused Can't help being a little annoyed.
Time passed bit by bit, and about an hour later, Li Zhen came back with a very ugly face.
Song Yingbai looked at him and quickly asked, "What's the matter? Did you find anything?"
Li Zhen shook his head with a bitter face, and the light in Song Yingbai's eyes suddenly disappeared. The emperor saw all this and asked, "How is it?"
Li Zhen said truthfully: "...there is indeed a corpse in the coffin..."
Zhu Shengze made a fist with his left hand, and slapped the Zhubi on the table with his right hand.
Li Zhen quickly added, "However, there is something wrong with the preservation of the corpse by the Chang family. The corpse is a little swollen. I don't think it looks like Chang Shoufu..."
"Enough!" Zhu Shengze shouted loudly, got up and walked to Li Zhen, pointing at Song Yingbai first, then at Li Zhen, "I already know what's going on.
There are two possibilities. First, that night, you and Pei Huaixuan had a disagreement and quarreled. With Pei Huaixuan's temper, it is not impossible to kill someone by mistake!
Second, Pei Huaixuan wants to take revenge, but Chang Liangzhu sees it through, so he will die, and would rather sacrifice himself to frame him!Tell me, which one is the truth? "
"My brother definitely didn't kill anyone. Your Majesty, you have to believe him." Song Yingbai choked up and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, you must save him."
"You asked me to protect him?" Zhu Shengze said angrily.
Song Yingbai hurriedly lowered his head, "No, it's just... I hope the emperor will save him..."
Zhu Shengze was full of anger. What Pei Huaixuan killed was not a cat or a dog, but the dignified chief assistant. He wanted to let him go, but would he be able to let him go?The facts are undeniable, he has admitted to murder, how many people are watching, Pei Huaixuan must go through the joint trial of the three divisions.
Zhu Shengze has been on the throne for so many years, and he has always been able to handle it with ease. No matter what it is, it is firmly in his hands. He has never been so powerless as he is now.
"Li Zhen, take him away and watch him. If you can't take care of him, you can go idle!" Zhu Shengze said, "Take him away."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please save my brother. He has been living so hard for so many years. He finally met his enemy, but he was still wronged. Only you can save him..."
Li Zhen covered Song Yingbai's mouth and pulled him out, "Stop talking about you!"
Hearing Song Yingbai's voice getting farther and farther away, Zhu Shengze angrily swept all the memorials on the table to the ground.
Lu Gonggong came in stooping, "Your Majesty...this..."
"roll!"
"Yes." Eunuch Lu was about to shrink his neck and exit.
"Come back!" Zhu Shengze called him back again, "Make arrangements, I'm going to see Pei Huaixuan."
"But your majesty, if you go to see Pei Huaixuan now, the risk is too great."
Zhu Shengze frowned, and said coldly: "I repeat, I want to see Pei Huaixuan."
"Yes, I'll do it now, slave." Eunuch Lu didn't dare to offend the emperor, so he got busy.
Zhu Shengze was really very angry. He didn't know about the quarrel between Pei Huaixuan and the chief assistant before, and he just thought that Pei Huaixuan was arrogant and domineering, but he didn't take it to heart.
Hearing Song Yingbai tell about their enmity with Chang Liangzhu today, he realized that he was being used by Pei Huaixuan.
"Pei Huaixuan, Pei Huaixuan, if you have you, dare to plot against me."
-
When Pei Huaixuan heard the sound of the prison door being opened, he sat up halfway, glanced lazily, "Li Zhen?"
When someone took off his hat and showed his face, he suddenly became energetic, "Your Majesty?"
Before Zhu Shengze came, he was looking forward to seeing Pei Huaixuan, and he was full of things to say, but when he actually saw him, he found that he couldn't say a word.
Pei Huaixuan quickly stood up and cleaned the grass stalks off her body, "Your Majesty, you have come to see me."
Zhu Shengze laughed at himself, "Yeah, I've come to see you, why do you want to beg me? Didn't you ignore my love before? When you're in trouble, just think of me? I probably can only use you value."
"Your Majesty, I was really wronged. The reason I admit it is because I don't want Song Yingbai to suffer."
Zhu Shengze retorted casually, "Yeah, you don't want your brother to suffer, so you admit it because you think I will save you, and you don't want to die, right?"
"Difficult, isn't it right?"
"You have a good plan!" Zhu Shengze exposed it mercilessly, "You deliberately let your brother be domineering, and gave me a clue to let me get into your trap. Let me help you clean up the first assistant, what a pity. Chazi, you were put together by the chief assistant, you have no real feelings, but now you want me to really save you, how dare you?"
Pei Huaixuan was startled, wondering if it was because of being tortured in prison, her lips were bloodless.
With a sneer in his eyes, Zhu Shengze stared at Pei Huaixuan, wanting to see what he could say.
Unexpectedly, Pei Huaixuan let out a long breath, and when he looked up again, his eyes were full of disdain, "Since you know, I have nothing to say."
"There's nothing to say?" Although Zhu Shengze knew that Pei Huaixuan was cruel, he didn't expect him to be so tough in prison.
"Then what do you want to hear?" Pei Huaixuan suddenly grabbed the other person's arm angrily, and said fiercely, "I actually hate you very much. Do you want to hear this sentence?"
Zhu Shengze choked for breath, and couldn't tell what it was like.
"Chang Liangzhu killed my parents, am I still human if I don't take revenge? For this purpose, I can pay any price! So think about it, if it's not for revenge, I wouldn't even say a word to you! "
Zhu Shengze said angrily: "Pei Huaixuan, you really are not afraid of death!"
"You don't need to kill me. The crime of killing the first assistant is enough to kill me. I'm already a death row prisoner. I don't have a chance to make a comeback. Do you think I don't know?"
Pei Huaixuan's attitude was bad, but Zhu Shengze's attitude was better, "...I can let you change your identity."
"And then? Accompany you with a new identity?" Pei Huaixuan laughed dumbfounded, "I'd rather die."
"You will regret it." Zhu Shengze said.
Pei Huaixuan pushed him, snorted a few times, turned and walked towards the haystack, obviously not wanting to talk to the emperor.
Zhu Shengze felt depressed, "I'm giving you a chance, just forget it!"
"What you gave is not called a chance, but a reminder to kill me."
Zhu Shengze was dizzy with anger, and said with a sneer, "Since you chose the latter before Zhenhe died, then you have to, you really deserve to die."
Pei Huaixuan stopped suddenly, then turned abruptly and came to Zhu Shengze, pinched his chin, and said with a sinister smile, "I'd rather die than have any interest in fucking you!"
Zhu Shengze's Adam's apple twitched.
Pei Huaixuan raised her eyebrows, and said with a snort, "What, what do you think? Do you want to try? It's right here!" Then, he squeezed Zhu Shengze's wrist tightly, and pushed him down onto the haystack.
Zhu Shengze was thrown heavily to the ground, seeing Pei Huaixuan who was approaching step by step, obviously not caring about anything, shouted: "Come here—come here—"
As soon as the guard opened the door and came in, he stood up and rushed out the door.
When he came to the corridor, he leaned on the wall, panted excitedly, looked back at the cell for a long time, and then left under the escort of the guards.
Not long after returning to the palace, Zhu Shengze summoned Li Zhen again to discuss countermeasures, "...I've thought about it, Chang Liangzhu really deserves to die, Pei Huaixuan was framed..."
Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, "Your Majesty, are you going to pardon Pei Huaixuan?"
"A pardon is impossible, steal the dragon and turn it into a phoenix."
"No problem, as long as you allow the emperor, then everything will be easy." Li Zhen exhaled again and again, "Great, great, Pei Huaixuan was saved, and Song Yingbai will not quarrel with me again."
Zhu Shengze was in a much better mood, and said with a smile, "Did he fight with you because of this?"
"Yeah, I'm worried. But now that the emperor has said this, I feel at ease." Li Zhen glanced at the emperor.
Zhu Shengze said slowly: "It's not necessarily a bad thing for Pei Huaixuan to be deflated, you can be more honest in the future."
"Chang Liangzhu died, and Pei Huaixuan got his revenge. He has no reason to be dishonest." Li Zhen said.
A smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Shengze's mouth, and he was reminiscing about what happened in the cell this afternoon, when Eunuch Lu walked in with a livid face, and said in a dazed voice, "... Your Majesty, something has happened."
Zhu Shengze thought, what else could happen, "Tell me."
"Your Majesty, Pei Huaixuan... is dead."
Zhu Shengze was startled, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears, "You said Pei Huaixuan is dead?"
Eunuch Lu nodded, "That's right, it was the news from the prison that it was a suicide, and the jailer had already passed away for a long time when he found out."
