Chapter 418 Possibility of Treason
In the middle of the night, the Qingyuan Hou's mansion broke the tranquility because of Xia Shouzhong's arrival, and Qingyuan Hou Xuanqing hurriedly accepted the order.

Xia Shouzhong read the secret decree to Qingyuanhou, and after listening to the secret decree, even the weather-beaten Qingyuanhou couldn't help but lose his voice: "Your Majesty, you want to kill the whole family of Pei's family!"

Xia Shouzhong saw that this man had been at odds with Emperor Zhao for many years, but now he was the only hope of the royal family, and he was also the only one who was loyal to Emperor Zhao, or more appropriately, the royal family.But his pedantic temper could not really be used by Emperor Zhao.

Therefore, Xia Shouzhong smiled and said to Qingyuan Hou earnestly: "Master Hou, it is true that Pei Yiyun robbed the prisoner, and Pei Zhengxuan colluded with the enemy. Isn't such a crime enough to rob the whole family..."

The Marquis of Qingyuan tightened his jaw, and said: "Although there is convincing evidence for robbing prisoners, the theory of Pei Zhengxuan collaborating with the enemy is only suspected, and there is no substantive evidence. This Pei family is full of loyalty, and Pei Zhengxuan and I have known each other for many years. I know her character very well. Although the Pei family unfortunately had a rebellious daughter, Pei Zhengxuan is definitely not the kind of person who favors selfishness. The emperor killed the whole family of the Pei family because of suspicion in his heart. If the news spread, I am afraid it will chill the heart of the old minister! "

Xia Shouzhong was the personal attendant of Emperor Zhao, and the ministers in the court were not supporting him, but now he was scolded by Qingyuanhou. Even if he was as scheming as him, the smile on his face could not be held back, and he looked at Qingyuanhou with a sneer. Said: "Master Hou, why does the emperor do this? You don't need to tell me. You know well. The Huang Kingdom has become a climate in Fengcheng, and the disaster outside is already done. If you want to keep the foundation of the Daxuan ancestor, you can't mess up inside. gone."

At that time, no matter whether Pei Zhengxuan has a different intention to help Huangguo or not, if Pei Zhengxuan has a large army in his hand, if he has a different intention to help Fengcheng, it will be a fatal blow to the court.

"Master Hou, it doesn't matter whether Pei Zhengxuan has rebelled or not, the most important thing is that he has the possibility of rebelling!" The eunuch's thin voice was very penetrating because it was deliberately lowered.

Xuan Qing didn't speak, since he knew Emperor Zhao for so many years, he naturally knew his character.

He has been like this since he was a prince, with a gloomy and uncertain personality, he would rather kill ten thousand by mistake than let one go.

Xuan Qing tensed his jaw and didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing that he seemed to be suppressing something, Xia Shouzhong proudly raised the imperial decree in his hand and said, "Master Hou, accept the decree..."

On February [-]th, there were still thirteen days before Fu Yunshu's enthronement ceremony. While such a major event attracted the attention of everyone in the Eastern Land, an imperial decree issued by Emperor Zhao also caused quite a stir.

The case of Pei Yiyun's robbery was tried in Dali Temple, and the trial was presided over by the Marquis of Qingyuan and Zuoxiang. In the end, Pei Zhengxuan and Huanguo conspired to rebel.The evidence is convincing, Pei Zhengxuan and Pei's family were escorted to Beijing, because Pei Zhengxuan had different intentions, resulting in the fall of Xiguo Fengcheng, the people fell into the flames of war, innocent border guards lost their lives, and every one of them is a crime that cannot be punished!

Therefore, after the trials were completed layer by layer, Emperor Zhao was furious, and after the evidence was convincing, he directly ordered to kill Pei's family, and three days later, he was executed at Xuanwumen.

And Pei Mo, who was still in Ningzhou, was also convicted and stripped of his post. The night before the imperial court's imperial army went to Ningzhou to arrest him, he absconded under the cover of his confidants, but he was already guilty. Liu Yue, the head of Emperor Zhao's royal guard, will temporarily take over the military power.

The imperial decree was handed down as quickly as possible. The people of the Pei family should be arrested and imprisoned. Under Emperor Zhao's swift and resolute actions, it seemed that it was the decree made under the wrath, but Pei Zhengxuan had already been imprisoned in the prison. The entire Pei family was convicted one by one without even the strength to defend themselves, and the military power in Ningzhou was soon handed over, and a few people knew it clearly, and Emperor Zhao's situation had been laid out long ago.

Everyone was amazed by Emperor Zhao's deep scheming. He was dying and looked like a dying person before, but he made so many decisions in a row after Xiao Que left the country according to the order. And the regent, since entering Luo After Yuan, no news came from Wu any.

The movements of the court became too fast. The royal family declined, the emperor was seriously ill, and the new lord was young. The regent was in charge of power alone. Seeing that the whole world was about to change his surname, the seriously ill emperor suddenly recovered and dealt with himself vigorously. He thought it was a hidden disaster, but the Prince Regent who was far away in Luoyuan was afraid of bad luck...

The news spread to Fengcheng as soon as possible. On March [-], Pei Zhengxuan and others had already been thrown into the prison, under heavy guard, and there was no way to rescue them.

With only two days, Fu Yunshu was caught off guard and there was no time to take any measures.

Emperor Zhao's actions were too fast, and when she secretly sent a team to the capital to find out the news, his order to deal with the Pei family had already been issued.

If it was because of Jun Zelan's words before, he still had little hope for Xiao Que in his heart - no matter what the situation was, Fu Yunshu believed that Xiao Que would not do anything to hurt her.But now, uncle and all of them have fallen into the hands of Emperor Zhao.From the very beginning, the plan was to arrest the three uncles, force the eldest uncle to show up, and take the opportunity to escort everyone to Beijing after the eldest uncle left Ningzhou. Fu Yunshu was willing to believe Xiao Que, but in the end, Xiao Que handed over the Pei family to Emperor Zhao, putting his uncle and the others in such a dangerous situation.

Fu Yunshu couldn't be more clear about what kind of person Emperor Zhao was.She has a very suspicious personality. In his previous life, it was not because of her, but only because the Pei family's great achievements threatened him, so he used the removal of the Pei family as a condition for Xuan Ling to become the crown prince.A person like him has a gloomy and unfathomable personality, and now Emperor Zhao hates the Pei family even more because of her. The Pei family can rebel." Against the Pei family.

Fortunately, after the Pei family fell into the hands of Emperor Zhao, Emperor Zhao did not immediately act. The hypocrisy and vicious nature made Emperor Zhao order the execution of all the members of the Pei family after he was convicted.

The hypocritical nature made Emperor Zhao refuse to be famous for killing Zhongliang and being narrow-minded in the history books, and let Qing Yuanhou, who presided over the case of the Pei family, convict the Pei family for collaborating with the enemy and treason. , and no one can criticize!And his sinister nature is to hate the Pei family's deliberate concealment over the years, which has brought such a great disaster to the court.

Pei Jiaerlang, who was bathed in blood on the battlefield, was always clear and bright. They value honor more than life.Therefore, accusing the Pei family of collaborating with the enemy and treason, ruining the reputation of the Pei family for a century, Pei Zhengxuan is not afraid of death, but because of his actions, the Pei family will be ashamed from now on, this is more enjoyable than killing Pei Zhengxuan and everyone in the Pei family.

And because of this, fortunately, Fu Yunshu bought a certain amount of time.For Fu Yunshu and the others, time is running out. Shuangying has already returned to the capital to contact the people in the capital. If there is no way to save people in the sky prison, they can only rob the prisoner.As for after robbing the prisoner—the world is so big, the Pei family will definitely bear the reputation of treason. She is far away in Fengcheng, let alone whether she can save people with only the troops planted in the capital. How can so many people be brought out of the capital safely?
All she could think of was Xiao Que who had such strength in the capital.

Fu Yunshu was very disturbed. Originally, she believed that Emperor Zhao had captured the Pei family and removed the military power from the Pei family in order to make a deal with her, but she didn't expect that Emperor Zhao would kill him as soon as he said it.No, maybe Emperor Zhao's original purpose was to catch everyone in the Pei family and use it to restrain her.But what happened that made Emperor Zhao change his mind, and made Emperor Zhao move to kill?Among them, is it related to Xiao Que leaving the capital to go to Fengcheng in name, but disappearing in Luoyuan for no reason?
Thinking of what Emperor Zhao had done, Fu Yunshu shuddered.The news that came from the capital before is that the royal family is in decline, Xiao Que is in charge of the power alone, Emperor Zhao's condition worsens, and the Xuan family is about to change hands.But thinking of Emperor Zhao's deeds after Xiao Que left the capital, he would never have done it without a long-term arrangement.

If so, Emperor Zhao would rather pacify the internal strife first, and then settle the external worries. He used some tricks to get Xiao Que to leave the capital and go to Fengcheng, and then sent people to chase and kill Xiao Que along the way. Xiao Que was in deep trouble and disappeared in Luoyuan; At the same time, he dealt with the Pei family again, and took control of the power of Ningzhou in a legitimate way.Xie Yizhi led the Xie family's army to the border to fight against the Yue army. Xiao Que left in the capital and the Pei family's military power was taken back. Then Emperor Zhao, who was forced by Xiao Que to retreat from Wu Ke, could regain power and wipe out the hidden dangers in the court in one fell swoop.Even though he lost half of the country he gained from fighting for many years, he was able to permanently get rid of Xiao Que, a serious confidant, and gained a stable court...

According to Emperor Zhao's character, it's not impossible to do such a thing.She guessed Emperor Zhao's purpose, but she was even more worried - in this way, the Pei family would definitely die, and Xiao Que who disappeared in Luoyuan without any reason would be in a more dangerous situation.

"Give me an order. Everyone who searches for Xiao Que in Luoyuan City must protect his safety." The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. When he thought of this possibility, Fu Yunshu almost subconsciously ordered someone to go to Luoyuan to deliver the order. The instinct to maintain in the bones...

Fu Yunshu's palms were sweating, and he forced himself to calm down.She was able to understand Emperor Zhao's purpose, and Xiao Que, who had been fighting with Emperor Zhao for so many years, might not be ignorant.Did Xiao Que choose to leave the capital because he had another plan? Perhaps, the disappearance in Luoyuan was only a part of the plan, and sending the Pei family to Emperor Zhao was only a part of the plan.

In the empty hall, Fu Yunshu kept walking and thinking about things, and then sat down on the chair, all the strength in his body seemed to be exhausted——

What if Xiao Que saw through Emperor Zhao's plan and used all his tricks, Luo Yuan's disappearance was just a part of his plan, and sending Pei's family to Emperor Zhao was just to dispel Emperor Zhao's vigilance?
