Chapter 256 Didn't kill him back then! (1)
After finishing speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but just after turning half his body, he was stopped by the words of old man Bai
"Is Bai Fengling with you?"

Bai Jiuli paused, and looked at old man Bai in surprise, as if he was surprised how he knew that Bai Fengling was in his hands, but it was only fleeting, so he generously admitted: "Yes, it was in the in my hand"

Mr. Bai did not expect that he would answer so simply. He was a little surprised, but more overjoyed. At least the Baifeng Token was indeed in the hands of their Bai family, and it also prevented the emperor from having to bear a burden when he investigated it later. crime of bullying

After a long silence, old man Bai said sadly: "Since you are back, and the Baifeng Token is in your hands, you should know that you bear a heavy responsibility. The emperor may not let you go so easily."

The two looked at each other, and Bai Jiuli could really feel the concern for him from the other's eyes. He was taken aback, and his tone of speech unconsciously lowered a lot, and he said with some respect:
"Grandfather, don't worry, I know what to do. Now that I'm back, I won't let our Baifu be passive. I won't give up Fengyunqi, and I won't offend the emperor."

Seeing his confident expression, old man Bai nodded in relief, signaling him to go back-
Royal Palace
Su Pei was hurriedly entering the imperial study, and then said in a panic, "Your Majesty, the eldest son of the White House is back."

When the words fell, the emperor on the main seat who was reviewing the memorial paused, and said in surprise: "You are back? You mean the son of Bai Zhi, the child who was kidnapped back then?"

"Back to the emperor, it's him, that's right, it seems to be Bai Jiuli"

"Bai Jiuli"

After so many years, he still came back alive. Thinking back then, he sent so many people to kill him, but they didn't succeed. This person seemed to have disappeared from the world, but now he came back suddenly

Thinking of this, the emperor frowned, with a serious expression, and said seriously: "I remember that Cai Shuyi wanted to see Princess Rong a few days ago?"

The topic changed too quickly, Su Peizheng was stunned for a moment, but he quickly replied: "Back to the emperor, it seems that there is such a thing, but a few days ago Princess Rong accompanied His Highness Rong Wang to Guancheng, saying that she was going to relax, but she did not investigate. The case of the county magistrate in Guancheng, the emperor also knows about it."

The implication is that His Royal Highness is going to investigate officials in the name of distraction, and some of them are acting on their behalf.
Su Pei was sowing discord, the emperor didn't hear it, he glanced at him coolly, and said jokingly: "How close is Eunuch Su and the queen these days?"

Hearing this, just hearing a "plop", Su Pei was kneeling down and begging for mercy tremblingly with his head lowered: "Your Majesty, forgive me, all this is my own idea. This slave is just fighting for the emperor's injustice. No one instructed this slave to do so." do it"

"Did I say that you were ordered by someone? Are you guilty of being so flustered?"

"Slave... There is no slave, the emperor will check clearly..."

Su Peizheng didn't expect that the emperor would use his words, but the emperor's guess was right, he was the queen's favorite person, these words were ordered by the queen, but he absolutely could not admit it

Otherwise, it would be more convincing of the charge of colluding with the concubine in the harem. At this time, he just hoped that the emperor would quickly turn over this page

The emperor's cold eyes shot down from the top of his head, as if he wanted to understand his thoughts, but right now he has more important things to do, regardless of whether Su Peizheng and the queen are in collusion or not
