Gu Shao once again smiled bitterly, âNot only these people, even Jane Yiyu died before the secret meeting of the steward, as well as flirting with Jane Yiyu as early as possible to Jane Lezhi left him something to get his hands on the person ⦠Zheng An said, it seems that they all have inextricably linked with the Peiâs of Youzhou! This is also the reason that after he fell into the net, at the mercy of the Qinzhi torture, do not dare to spit out the slightest bit, he was worried that if he confessed, his old mother, his wife and children, inevitably be subjected to the reprisals of the Peiâs in Youzhou!â
These words inadvertently revealed how he got Zheng An to confess: inevitably, it was in the dual capacity of prime minister and head of the Gu family in Hongzhou that Zheng An was given the security of netting his family members.
Although it was said that Uncle Shouchun and Qiu Shuxia had given Zheng An similar assurances and threats before, Zheng An, who had seen the depths of the Pei Clan in Youzhou, would definitely not believe them.
Because whether Shouchun Bo or Qiu Shuxia, although their current status is not low, but when it comes to their origins, they are not good anymore.
Only the Gu Clan of Hongzhou, which is on par with the Pei Clan of Youzhou and is the head of the family, has made a guarantee that can shake Zheng Anâs confidence to carry on hard to the end!
âIn that case, Iâm afraid that Zheng Anâs socalled accidental exposure was also planned for a long time, right?â Emperor Duanhua had long since heard Emperor Xianjia repeatedly emphasize how unfathomable the underpinnings of the Tired Hairpin were, and was not surprised when he heard this; after pondering for a while, he suddenly laughed out coldly.
Since the rich man can lurk in Liaozhou for several generations without revealing any flaws, it is evident that he is by no means a careless person, so when he got up in the middle of the night to give Zheng An meals and other necessities, how could he not prevent his wife, who was sharing the same bed, from noticing it?
As a husband and a secret son of the Pei family, would there be no chance and ability to do something to make his wife sleep all night and not notice his departure?
Instead of saying that Zheng An was captured because of bad luck, it would be better to say that this is the reason why Pei Yourui, who clearly has so many hands to lay hands on Jian Yiyu in the north, had to buy Zheng An from the imperial capital to go there: Zheng An had been Lu Chaoyuâs dowry!
What Pei Yourui sees is not his martial arts at all, or even his hardness, but his experience, which can drag Lu Chaoyu down as a scapegoat after he falls into the net, so that he can get out gracefully!
In this case, it is no wonder that the Liaozhou governor, Zheng Keji, reported that the people who killed Shen Qimoâs mother and son and the subordinates of the joint house were a group of ruffians, but not Zheng An.
Pei Yourui didnât need Zheng An to do anything at all, she just needed him to show up in Liaozhou with the identity of Lu Chaoyuâs dowry and get involved with what happened to Jane Yiyuâs house, thatâs enough for the rest, she had someone else to take care of it!
âI really underestimated this Cousin Pei in the past!â When Emperor Duanhua thought of this, he let out another cold laugh and said in a slow voice, âMinister Gu, what do you think, what should we do about this?â
âTruly as His Majesty said before, the most important thing right now is to appease the Dowager Empress.â Gu Shao sighed in his heart, the death or life of a single Jing Min County Lord, he was too lazy to care, but now this Jing Min County Lord, is already his own grandsonâs daughterinlaw!
And his grandson Helou Dukhan very much like their wives, Pei Yourui simply satisfied can not be satisfied due to the Helou Dukhanâs mother Miss Guâs death, Gu Shao and this grandson has already existed a gap, if again on his wife to see the death of the words, want to know, grandchildren and grandchildren between the two, at least, also is the old and dead to come and go!
Whether it is out of affection, or on the future prospects of Helou Dukhanâs expectations, Gu Shao does not want to be alienated from his grandson, so he must be in this mess!
Fixed his mind, Gu Shao said, âOther are small sections and Jing Min county master has been Jinâs Grand Princess of His Highness as her own, now Jinâs Grand Princess of His Highness first lost her own son and grandson, followed by no sister sisterinlaw, if you know that all the originator, is precisely their own pearl of the jewel of the jing Min county master, your majesty, which Called the Jin country great eldest princess highness how to accept? At that time â¦â
Emperor Duanhua looked at him coldly, âI remember, Jingminâs husband He Lou Duhan is your grandson, right?â
The relationship between He Lou Duhan and Gu Shao, the dynasty and the countryside do not know many people, but Emperor Xianjia and Emperor Duanhua know because the reason why Emperor Xianjia named He Lou Duhan as the scholar, in addition to intentionally suppressing Su Shaoge, but also in order to give Gu Shao a face.
In reality, although Herou Dokhanâs talent was good, it might not be higher than Su Shaogeâs.
So now that Gu Shao was excusing Pei Yourui, how could Emperor Duanhua not know his intention in speaking so?
âYour Majesty!â Gu Shao heard this, and without saying a word, he fell to his knees with a thud, and said in a deep voice, âThe relationship between me and He Lou Duhan has never been hidden from the royal family! I was greatly favored by the late emperor, and I only wish to do my best for His Majesty in my entire life, until I die! Thatâs why my advice was all for His Majesty! If Your Majesty finds me untrustworthy, I have nothing to say but to ask Your Majesty to punish me! I have no regrets even if I die!â
His hand to retreat, but let the Duanhua emperor headache: Duanhua emperor does not want Gu Shao as a fool fool, but also know that he currently can not be separated from Gu Shaoâs auxiliary.
Whatâs more, Pei You Rui this calculation, although got him a cousin and nephew, and indirectly forced the death of his little aunt little aunt, but the death of these people, are Duan Hua Emperor do not like, and even want to go again to personally whip the body once again so Duan Hua Emperorâs dissatisfaction with Pei You Rui, mainly because, Pei You Rui wish to revenge, can appease the Empress Dowager! With the Grand Princess of Jinâs errand, but the Duanhua Emperor to do!
To say that he was dissatisfied with Pei You Ruiâs practice, although there was also, but not a lot.
This will see Gu Shao kneeling down to ask for forgiveness, the Duanhua Emperorâs face ugly will, in the end, slowed down the tone, âWhy should Minister Gu be like this? I just suddenly remembered this matter, then said just! You are the Princeâs division, but also the first emperorâs legacy, I have always relied on, otherwise this time things, will not send you to do it is not? Quickly get up, up to speak!â
âThank you, Your Majesty!â Gu Shao saw that the emperor had already made a step, and did not pursue, got up and shook his robes, before continuing, âYour Majesty, although the Jingmin county master is counted as the ministerâs grandsoninlaw, Your Majesty, please think about it, whoever is the elder, all hope to marry a wife and marry a virtuous person, and what the Jingmin county master did this time, of course, there are reasons for this, but even Jane Chengzhiâs so small a child has not been spared, and it is really injurious to heavenly justice! How could I like such a junior? If it were not for the importance of the matter, I would even be eager to remind my grandson to be careful to guard against the Jingmin county master! The reason why Iâm speaking up now to clear the Jingmin County Lord is that Iâm mainly worried that the Dowager Empress and the Grand Princess of Jin will not be able to accept this result!â
Emperor Duanhua had nothing to say: for it was the truth.
The Empress Dowager and the Grand Princess of Jin are sure to accept the truth, even if he does not care whether the two elders can be stimulated, but the murder of Jane Yiyu father and son of the real culprits since Pei Yourui, not Lu Chaoyu, the Empress Dowager is not more and more reason to the emperor to give her an explanation?
The problem was that Lu Chaoyu and his wife were already dead, so how was Emperor Duanhua going to compensate the Empress Dowager for her youngest daughter who was a living, fullblooded child?
So whether for the sake of the two eldersâ bodies and moods, or for Emperor Duanhuaâs own consideration, Pei Yourui, the true culprit, must not be exposed!
âIs there anything Zheng An hasnât said?â Emperor Duanhua deliberated for a moment and finally made up his mind, looking up and asking Gu Shao.
Gu Shao understood what he meant, âHe should have said everything he knows.â
âThen let him take a good rest!â Duanhua Emperor waved his hand, âAs for the truth ⦠please bother Gu Xiang to organize, tomorrow give me, I will go to report to the imperial grandmother!â
That night, news came from the imperial capital that Zheng An couldnât survive the torture and was no more.
Due to the news of the death of Lu Chaoyu and his wife was ordered to be sealed by Emperor Duanhua, has not yet been spread this news did not attract too much attention, thought Lu Chaoyu family is still alive and well, the Empress Dowager did not even ask a question, only faintly said âI knowâ.
Apparently the Dowager Empress thought that it was the Duanhua Emperorâs fulfillment of his promise to silence him after he had made a deal with himself.
The next day, Gu Shao once again to the palace audience, presented stayed up all night to organize the âtruthâ.
This truth, Pei Yurui picked clean, all all the evidence, details, behind the scenes ⦠all point to Lu Chaoyu couple!
After Duanhua Emperor finished reading, he asked Gu Shao to leave, and brought the things himself to the dowager empress, cleared the field, and asked the dowager empress to look at it with her own eyes.
The Empress Dowager read it with an expressionless face and said, âWhat does the Emperor mean by this? Didnât you say it was done before?â
âNaturally so.â Emperor Duanhua respectfully said, âSunâer is just afraid that Imperial Grandmother will misunderstand Sunâer after all, Sunâer really doesnât like Little Aunt very much, but itâs also true that Sunâer didnât set out to plant evidence to plot against Little Aunt!â
The Empress Dowager smiled, which eased her face slightly and said, âGood boy, of course the mourning family believes in you.â
Fang said, âThe Dai Guo ⦠Chaoyu Commission is too indisputable! Surprisingly, because of the jealousy of the cell sister, he poisoned the Yiyu father and son! This ⦠this is really to be angry with the mourning family ah!!!â
Duanhua Emperor hurriedly persuade, âImperial grandmother do not so think the little aunt is also a moment of confusion! It is said that people canât come back from the dead, not to mention that if Jian Yiyu hadnât died in the hands of his little aunt, based on the matter of King Qing alone, his grandson wouldnât have been able to spare him! In this case, it seems that the little aunt has helped him to avoid a disaster!â
He said so when the heart is very some cold: Jane Yiyu is no longer good, but also the Empress Dowagerâs own grandson, not to mention that together with the shipwrecked there is a hold in the hands of the Jane Chengzhi!
However, after reading the Empress Dowager, but still first concerned about Lu Chaoyu, and so confirmed that Duanhua Emperor did not mean to Lu Chaoyu to catch up with the meaning, only meaning to scold a few sentences of the youngest daughter can be seen in the Empress Dowagerâs mind, their own birth, and daughterinlaw, daughter of the birth, enough to have a world of difference.
If Emperor Duanhua had not listened to Gu Shaoâs advice and told his grandmother that Pei Yourui was the real culprit, what kind of storm would have awaited him?
âSunâer has already ordered trusted people to silence Zheng An and sweep away many traces.â Emperor Duanhua stabilized his mind and said to the Empress Dowager, âAs for this, I will immediately burn it at your place! In the future, this matter, no one to mention again just the Jin imperial aunt there, but also need your help, lest the imperial aunt know, then between the two aunts ⦠grandson as a junior, many words are not very good to say, can only ask you old help worry! â
The Empress Dowager stared for a moment and nodded, âLeave the Jin side to my mourning family! There is no one left in the second house of the Jian family, so why bother to ask them to create a gap between the sisters? The daughters of the House of Mourning are now the only two left to keep them company!â
Just as Emperor Duanhua and the Empress Dowager were discussing how to fool the Grand Princess of Jin, under the corridor with the word âHe Louâ written outside the palace lights, He Lou Duhan walked out of the inner room with an ironclad face, and left in large strides without looking back!
He was Pei Yourui quite a bit of love at first sight, in order to marry the Jingmin County, resigned countless high marriage, it is not easy to get what you want, since the marriage, to his wife is really a hundred favorites, no matter how to comply with.
The subordinates had seen this in their eyes and were secretly surprised to see him looking shocked at the moment!
âCounty master?â Pei Youruiâs maid Lanxiang stood outside the inner room, cautiously opened towards the inside, in the end she was uneasy, boldly walked in, but saw Pei Yourui sitting at the table in a daze, on the ground there were broken cups and water stains, she was surprised and angry, she busily walked over and asked, âWhatâs wrong with him, county horse?â
âNothing!â Pei You Rui said so, but from her slightly trembling hands, one could tell that she was not calm in her heart, and took a deep breath to stabilize her mind before saying, âWhereâs Xiao Niu? Tell him to come over, I have something to order him!â
Xiao Niu is the little beggar she saved on the way back to Youzhou with her father, because there is no name, Pei You Rui see him as thin and weak, so she made a âXiao Niuâ name, meaning that she hoped he would grow up to be strong and strong, like a cow, and not lose the simplicity of the cow Originally, Pei You Rui gave him a name and wanted to give him some silver to send him away, but he begged and begged to stay with Pei You Rui to wait for him. After the name PeiYuRui want to give some silver to send him away, but he begged to stay in PeiYuRui side wait, PeiYuRui that will be in the pain of the loss of his father, for the pavilion collapse did not forget to want to save their own calves also have some pity, then allowed him.
Later, when the Grand Princess of Jin entrusted Jian Li Miao to fetch her to the imperial capital, Xiao Niu wanted to follow, and she agreed this once little beggar said he was her slave, in fact Pei Yourui somewhat took him as a younger brother, Lanxiang and other maids saw it in their eyes, and were extraordinarily tolerant and biased towards him.
At this moment, I heard that Pei Yourui wanted to see him, Lanxiang thought that it was to ask the calf to do something secretive, no doubt, panicked and shouted the person over.
Just what Lanxiang didnât know was that when Xiao Niu arrived, Pei Yourui immediately ordered the field to be cleared, followed by a split sentence without waiting for Xiao Niu to ask a question, âXiao Niu, or you have some other big name what the hell are you from?!â
