Chapter 50
His Highness the Sixth Highness heard about this, and couldn't hold back any longer.

Yao Zuofeng asked anxiously, "Will Li Jing betray us?"

Su Qi'an thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Based on his personality, probably not."

Li Jing must be the person they placed next to the prince, and they still trust him.

Chu Liu was also vaguely worried, and said, "Qi'an, Zuofeng, why don't you go to Pei Xun's to find out the truth."

As soon as the two agreed, they immediately went to Pei Xun's office in the Privy Council.

Ah Chang personally led them into the Privy Council. Halfway through the walk, Yao Zuofeng casually asked, "Does Master Pei have any guests today?"

Ah Chang smiled and said: "Young master had a drink with an adult until dawn last night. This is the first time I have seen him so happy these days."

Yao Zuofeng and Su Qi'an looked at each other, and Su Qi'an said, "Which adult is it?"

Ah Chang said, "Lord Li from Sanya."

After hearing this, the eyes of the two people tightened.

Ah Chang stepped forward and opened the door, but at the moment of opening the door, a figure in black military uniform flashed past, as if eager to hide, just in time for Su Qi'an and Yao Zuofeng to see It's crystal clear.

Yao Zuofeng was a little suspicious: "Who is that person?"

Su Qi'an said in a deep voice, "It's Li Jingding."

Then Pei Xun scolded from inside the room: "Why didn't you report and take the person directly into the inner courtyard on your own initiative!"

"My lord, forgive me! It's a humble and reckless job!"

When the two people outside heard this, they confirmed what they thought in their hearts, and Su Qi'an immediately said to the guards at the side: "Tell your lord, this officer and Lord Yao suddenly have something important to do, so go back first." gone."

After finishing speaking, he and Yao Zuofeng hurried back.

But Pei Xun in the room said to the screen, "Come out."

The man in the black military uniform just now was actually just an ordinary guard.

Su Qi'an and the two rushed back to Chu Liu's place and told him exactly what they had just seen at Pei Xun's place.

Yao Zuofeng said firmly: "I think Li Jing must have betrayed us."

But Chu Liu shook her head: "It doesn't look like that now."

Yao Zuofeng said, "If it wasn't for betrayal, how could Pei Xun not convict him?"

Su Qi'an immediately followed up and said: "Your Highness is right, and it may be Li Jingding's expedient policy. After all, he has been with me for more than ten years, so how could he turn against me so easily."

At this time, a guard came to report: "Your Highness, my lords, Li Jingding has left the Privy Council, and is personally escorted by Mr. Pei's men and horses."

Yao Zuofeng got up immediately: "I'll tell you! If it wasn't for betrayal, how could Pei Xun personally send someone to protect him!"

Su Qi'an also nodded this time: "Your Highness, I'm afraid Li Jingding has been instigated to rebel, and this person cannot be kept."

Chu Liu thought for a moment, then said: "It makes sense, the sooner you do it, the better."

Su Qian'an's eyes gradually became murderous: "Tonight, do it immediately!"

In Li Jingding's mansion, he was pacing around restlessly, Pei Xun's words kept echoing in his ears, making him unable to sleep peacefully no matter what.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew the window open. Li Jingding stepped forward to check it out, and found that there was no suspicious person outside, so he breathed a sigh of relief and closed the window.

But as soon as he turned around, a sword stabbed straight at him, and he didn't have time to dodge, he thought he was going to die.

Suddenly a dagger fell from the sky and pierced straight into the man's head. He stared and fell down stiffly.

Li Jingding raised his head and saw a person flying down, he was a little surprised and said: "Chang guard?"

When Li Jingding was brought to Pei Xun's place again, he kowtowed gratefully to Pei Xun: "Thank you Mr. Pei for saving your life! From now on, I am willing to do my best for you!"

Pei Xun smiled warmly, and helped him up: "Master Li doesn't need to be so polite. I know that Mr. Li is an upright person, so naturally I won't believe that you will embezzle the war money, but it's just out of my control."

When Li Jingding heard this, he was even more grateful to Pei Xun from the bottom of his heart.

Pei Xun then continued: "The official will not force you today, so go."

Li Jingding's eyes were moist: "Thank you, sir!"

When Li Jingding left, Ah Chang asked a little puzzled: "Master, it's come to this point, why didn't you let Li Jingding confess?"

Pei Xun just laughed and said nothing, Li Jingding is just a small guard and infantry commander, if he is only asked to confess, the best result is to hurt Su Qi'an's vitality and completely defeat him It is absolutely impossible.

There is a greater use to keep him, and after this incident, Li Jingding is already his.

Jiang Youzhi was concentrating on embroidering clothes for the queen mother at the moment, and didn't notice the people behind her.

A malicious voice sounded: "You are serious about embroidering."

Jiang Youzhi got up and smiled generously, and said to Liang Yifei, "Thank you, Ms. Liang, for your compliment."

Liang Yifei didn't think she could bear it for long, so she glanced at Jiang Youzhi's embroidery contemptuously: "Embroiderers who come from small households also think that the Queen Mother can look up to them, don't you think about it, what a noble status the Queen Mother is , what kind of status are you?"

To her surprise, Jiang Youzhi was not angry, and calmly said: "Miss Xie Liang reminds me, I don't need to trouble you about such matters."

Liang Yifei glared at her angrily, then left angrily.

Jiang Youzhi shook his head helplessly, he didn't have time to talk to her now, the most important thing was to embroider Yi Yi's clothes well.

But Liang Yifei, who was leaving, felt more and more restless as she thought about it. She had just seen Jiang Youzhi's embroidery. Although it was a semi-finished product, it was definitely a superb craftsmanship.

Looking at her own, it's a mess, and compared with hers, it's a world of difference.

A trace of viciousness flashed in her eyes, and she whispered a few words to the maid beside her, and when the maid left knowingly, a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Jiang Youzhi saw that the time was almost up, so he went to have lunch, but came back soon.

After a while, she found that the gold thread she used to embroider Yiyi's clothes was missing, she searched in a panic, and said to the embroiderer next door: "Have you seen the gold thread here?"

Xiu Niang shook her head: "No."

Reminiscent of Liang Yifei's visit just now, she realized that she might have lost the golden thread this time, and it was very likely that she did it on purpose.

She could only settle down and embroider other parts, but in the afternoon, the nurse in charge gathered everyone together and said sharply: "A very bad theft happened in the Shangyi Supervisor! It is decreed that a thorough investigation must be made to find out that nasty thief!"

A guard came over, explained some things, and threatened to search the entire Shangyi prison!
