My emperor, long live!

Receiving Bai Qianning's promise, Qin Zheng's tense face instantly bloomed a big flowery morning glory, hugging Bai Qianning and circling excitedly.

Thanks to Pei Mo's previous suggestion, she dared to pierce the paper on the window and successfully embraced the beauty!

Thinking of this, Qin Zheng, who was still holding Bai Qianning excitedly, took the time to glance at the auditorium to see if Pei Mo was still in the Zuihua Pavilion.

From the corner of the eye, she caught sight of Pei Mo in the crowd pursing her lips and smiling at her. Qin Zheng immediately wanted to pull Bai Qianning over to thank Pei Mo, but found that there was a familiar woman beside Pei Mo. With a charming face, she softly shouted to Qin Zheng: "Congratulations, Second Sister!"

Could it be her fifth sister, Qin Ran!

Seeing that Qin Ran, who was supposed to be in the palace, appeared in the Zuihua Pavilion for no reason, Qin Zheng suddenly became curious and wanted to go to ask the reason, but saw Pei Mo winking at her, and immediately realized that there are dragons and snakes mixed here, not talking place.

He put his arms around Bai Qianning and sent her back to the house.

When he came out again, Pei Mo had already prepared the carriage and was waiting outside Zuihua Pavilion. Qin Zheng strode onto the carriage, pointed at Qin Ran and said straight to the point: "Qin Ran, tell me the truth! Why did you sneak out? A place like Zuihua Pavilion suddenly appeared! You said that you are a weak girl, and you are so pure and pretty, are you not afraid of encountering some hooligans in Zuihua Pavilion?"

Halfway through the speech, Qin Zheng realized that he was meddling when he saw Pei Mo looking at her with a smile on his face.Qin Ran came to Zuihua Pavilion, and she should be taught by Pei Mo. Since Pei Mo didn't get angry, she has nothing to blame.

Qin Zheng paused, coughed twice, resumed her usual sultry look, put one hand on the carriage and smiled teasingly at Qin Ran, and said teasingly: "I don't think you seem like someone who likes to spend time and drink, Could it be that he overheard Pei Mo coming to the Zuihua Pavilion to drink, so he secretly followed him to catch the adulterer? Tsk tsk, what a scene where the little lady knocked over the vinegar vat and came to the Zuihua Pavilion to recover her wife in person!"

Qin Ran was slightly startled when she heard the words, she quickly lowered her head, and unconsciously touched her cheeks that were starting to heat up. Is it so obvious that I'm jealous?

Sensing Qin Ran's small movements that were about to be concealed, Qin Ran stared and exclaimed in disbelief: "No way! You really came out to catch Pei Mo's traitor! Tell me, tell me, is it Ning... ouch!" Before finishing speaking, the name that almost blurted out suddenly turned into a cry of pain.

Qin Ran stared at Qin Ran fiercely with squinting eyes, and saw her open her mouth, thinking that she would continue to speak, the foot under her skirt stepped on her foot with a little more force, and stared at Qin Ran with apricot eyes. , counterattacked unceremoniously: "You still have the face to criticize me? I don't know which princess is dancing swords and giving flowers on the stage of the No. [-] singing and dancing. Don't be ashamed!"

Qin Zheng patted himself on the cheek nonchalantly, boasting: "How is it? Have you been fascinated by the young master's handsome and unrestrained figure?"

"Very average, just at the level of a street performer." Qin Ran shook her head.

Qin Ran was furious, "Well, Qin Ran, you're really sharp-tongued!"

Struggling to pull his feet out from Qin Ran's feet, Qin Zheng moved closer to Pei Mo, and said aggrievedly, "You don't care about Pei Mo."

Pei Mo smiled lightly and said, "You can eat things indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense. This is a hornet's nest that you poked yourself. How can I clean it up for you?"

Qin Zheng rolled her eyes with some disdain, "You husband and wife know how to bully me and fight alone, hum! When I marry Bai Qianning back, I want you to look good!" When she said this angrily, she completely forgot about Bai Qianning With a gentle personality, she would never put her hips on her hips and yell at her.

The two kept bickering, laughing and making noise along the way, so lively, even the cold and introverted Pei Mo would interject a sentence or two from time to time, making Qin Zheng choke and yell that he made a bad friend by mistake.

Back in the palace, the sky was already dark, the carriage drove to the gate of the palace, the eunuch who guarded the gate suddenly stopped the three of them, bowed and asked: "Is the one sitting in the carriage Pei Mo Pei Xiang?"

It was the first time that Pei Mo, who was always free to go in and out of the palace, was stopped outside the palace gate. Immediately after realizing that something might happen in the palace, he said in a deep voice, "What's the matter, father-in-law?"

The eunuch hurriedly said: "The sixth prince, Qin Ze, has been poisoned, and his life is in danger now! The empress urgently invites Prime Minister Pei to discuss matters!"

"What!" Qin Ran and Qin Zheng exclaimed together.

The struggle for power in the palace has been going on for a long time, and different factions will do everything they can to defeat their opponents, but it is the first time in this dynasty that the prince was killed by poisonous poison. , Surprised that the conspiracy behind this was even more terrifying than imagined, he couldn't help but frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Wait, Pei Mo, I'll go with you."

Pei Mo nodded, and ordered Linglong to escort Qin Ran back to Yusheng Pavilion, and after admonishing to be safe, he and Qin Zheng were led by the eunuch to meet the queen.

When Pei Mo walked halfway, he found that the eunuch led the way not to the Imperial Study Room. He pulled Qin Zheng, who was in a hurry because he was worried about his younger brother, to a stop, and asked, "I remember that this road seems to lead to the prison in the palace. Why is your father-in-law?" Take us to the prison?"

Qin Zheng also sensed that something was wrong, and cast a sidelong glance at the eunuch.

The eunuch explained: "Pei Xiang didn't know it. After the imperial doctor found out that the six princes were poisoned, the queen was furious and ordered the guards in the palace to arrest the husband. Now the husband is being imprisoned in prison and tortured by the queen."

As soon as this remark came out, Qin Zheng became even more anxious, wishing he could fly to the prison and chop up the emperor's husband's traitor!

Pei Mo's brows were furrowed, and there was some doubt in his heart. The imperial husband had spent ten whole years to poison the empress with Bigu's poison. Logically speaking, he shouldn't be so impulsive and murder the prince on the spur of the moment.I'm afraid that after someone heard the news about their investigation into the poisoning, they simply refused to believe it, poisoned Qin Ze to death, and framed the emperor's husband.

Guessing this possibility, Pei Mo's thoughts wandered, and he couldn't help but think of the incident of being hunted down by an assassin in Yuexi Lake recently, if the mastermind behind the scenes and the person who poisoned the prince were the same group...

Pulling Qin Zheng who was furious, Pei Mo whispered in her ear what he had guessed.

After listening to Pei Mo's analysis, Qin Zheng calmed down immediately. After sorting out the relationship and clues, he realized that he was almost caught. He gritted his teeth and said, "It's a poisonous plan that kills two birds with one stone. The heir can eradicate the power of the imperial husband."

He asked in a low voice, "Do you have a way to deal with it?"

Pei Mo pondered for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "There are too many enemies hiding in the dark in the palace, and I can't do anything here. You go and call the eyeliners belonging to our faction to investigate this matter, and then find an excuse to go out of the palace and contact Ning Qingcheng."
