Chapter 421

In the palace, Xia Shouzhong reported in panic that the Pei family was a death row prisoner and was robbed.

After Xia Shouzhong finished speaking, the teacup in the quiet Qinzheng Hall fell to the ground, and he asked furiously: "I have sent two thousand imperial guards to guard the execution ground. Dozens of people have been rescued, let the word spread, where is the power of heaven!"

He originally thought that the Pei family would be dead in his hands when they were escorted to the capital, but they were rescued on the day of the execution, which made him angry and shocked.

The fury of the thunder made the courtiers in Qinzheng Palace kneel down and plead guilty. After a while, Emperor Zhao slowly said: "After Xiao Que left, Yuchen Pavilion has basically become an empty pavilion, and I have people strictly guarding it both inside and outside the capital. It can't be that the people from Yuchen Pavilion robbed the prisoners, could it be the Xie family who could do such a thing?"

Dozens of members of the Pei family were robbed in front of everyone in the tightly guarded capital. Xiao Que had already brought everyone out of the capital. It couldn't have been done by Yuchen Pavilion. The next ones who might help Xiao Que are those who stayed in the Xie family in the capital.However, with just one Xie family, how could they organize such a powerful force to take so many people away on the execution ground?

Thinking of another possibility, Emperor Zhao would rather the Xie family send someone to do it.

Seeing that Emperor Zhao was furious, his tone calmed down, and Xia Shouzhong dared to tell Emperor Zhao what happened carefully: "Your Majesty, those bandits who came to rob people turned into the appearance of the surrounding people, and waited until the moment before noon to meet with the robbers." The assassins cooperated from the inside and the outside, and the Imperial Forest Army had no ability to fight back, and when the Imperial Forest Army came back to their senses, they had already dispersed."

"As soon as the Xuanwumen incident happened, Qingyuan Hou immediately ordered people to block the city gates. The four city gates in the capital were immediately closed and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Qingyuan Hou sent all the troops to search around the capital, but there was no trace No, from the prisoner robbery to the escape route, it can be seen that everything has been strictly planned, if only relying on the Xie family, it is impossible to organize such a strict plan."

After hearing Xia Shouzhong's words, Emperor Zhao glanced at Xia Shouzhong and asked, "What do you think?"

Xia Shouzhong replied: "According to my servant, there is no one in the capital who has such strength except Yuchen Pavilion..."

This is the worst possibility, Xia Shouzhong's words dispelled Emperor Zhao's self-deception.Emperor Zhao's complexion changed again and again, and the cruel look between his eyebrows made people shudder.

"He is demonstrating to me! I underestimated him..." Emperor Zhao said viciously. All the memorials on the case table and other things were overturned by Emperor Zhao. This kind of anger is shocking, but again No matter how you look at it, it's just a battle between trapped beasts.

In the beginning, he planned to catch Pei Yiyun, which was beyond Xiao Que's expectation.He sent people to closely guard the place where Pei Yiyun was, making it impossible for Xiao Que to rescue him. Then he forced Xiao Que to deal with Pei Yiyun, and wanted to use the Pei family's opportunity to make Xiao Que and Fu Yunshu turn against each other.

Just when he thought Xiao Que was forced to have nowhere to go, Xiao Que resorted to tricks and arrested Pei Zhengxuan and the entire Pei family one after another.This is just the beginning of everything.

He had murderous intentions towards Xiao Que, Xiao Que didn't know this, so he deliberately left the capital, pretending to take everyone away, but in fact he left some elites of Yuchen Pavilion in the capital.

All his plans were in Xiao Que's calculations, and he thought that forcing Xiao Que to a desperate situation was just a part of Xiao Que's huge plan.

The Pei family has been imprisoned in the prison for so long, it is impossible to rescue them according to Xiao Que's arrangement.But he had to wait until the day of the execution to act, isn't it just to demonstrate to him?Let him know that everything is under his control, even if there is some blood oath to restrain him, Xiao Que is definitely capable of playing with him in the applause.

At this moment, a message from the guard came from outside: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the border..."

Xia Shouzhong looked at Emperor Zhao's face and said, "Send it in."

Emperor Zhao took the urgent report in Xia Shouzhong's hand and looked at it silently. His face was even worse than before, his face was ashen, the urgent report in his hand fell to the ground, and his body was crumbling.

"Your Majesty..." Xia Shouzhong quickly supported Emperor Zhao and shouted. The expression on Emperor Zhao's face was unstoppable, but when he was so angry, Emperor Zhao smiled instead.

It's not that Xiao Que underestimated him, but that he underestimated Xiao Que.

According to the urgent report, it was sent from several cities and counties next to Ningzhou. Three days ago, Generalissimo Liu Yue of Ningzhou was killed in the army.

The Pei family was rescued, Liu Yue was killed, Pei Mo rebelled, Xiao Que played a good move!

"It's over, everything is over..." Emperor Zhao looked at the secret report, feeling disheartened.Originally, he thought that the Pei family could be removed logically, but what he didn't expect was that Xiao Que turned against the army, making the Pei family who was originally loyal to him now the enemy of the Xi country.

Xia Shouzhong picked up the secret report that was dropped by Emperor Zhao, and his face became as pale as paper.

Xia Shouzhong's unexpected turn for the situation had taken a sharp turn.Thinking of Xiao Que's ruthless means, and thinking of Xiao Que's sinister eyes before he left, if Xiao Que found out about that incident back then, he would definitely not end well...

Thinking of this, Xia Shouzhong's back was covered in cold sweat. He suppressed his shock and spoke into Emperor Zhao's ear, then looked at Emperor Zhao and said, "Your Majesty, the regent has not returned to the capital, and things may turn around... "

Emperor Zhao just sneered, looking at Xia Shouzhong, his black eyes were as silent as dead ashes: "We don't have any bargaining chips in our hands to restrain Xiao Que!"

The faces of the monarch and his ministers were uglier than those of a dead person. As the silence spread, it was said that the Jun Jun and the deputy commander asked to see him.

In Yiyang City, the people who had been waiting for a whole day finally got the news that the rescue of the Pei family was successful. Pei Mo heaved a sigh of relief, and the silent Xiao Que stood up and said, "Mr. Pei, please wait here for three days. People will definitely send Marshal Pei and the others back safely."

"Okay, thank you very much, Mr. Xiang." Pei Mo was a person who cherished words like gold, and he said very little when it came to Xiao Que.

Outside Wuhen and others were already waiting outside the door. The rescue of the Pei family this time was just the beginning, and the subsequent contest really began.

Xiao Que smiled faintly, and said: "After Pei's family is rescued, the emperor will definitely be furious, and will send many troops to encircle and suppress Ningzhou, with Nandi outside and the imperial court inside, and the situation between Ningzhou and Pei's family will become even more severe. I also hope Mr. Pei will persevere."

Pei Mo smiled indifferently, "Don't worry, Mr. Pei Mo will live up to what you entrusted! I will definitely be able to keep Ningzhou, but I hope Young Master Xiao won't keep his promise for the court affairs in the future."

"Naturally!" Although there were only two words, it was enough to convince people.

Yiqi Qingchen, quickly headed towards the direction of the capital, the Pei family rebelled for several months, Emperor Zhao's personal guards were all wiped out by Xiao Que, but everything was far from over, it was just the beginning.

"What he promised, he will never break his promise."

In Fengcheng, Fu Yunshu received a letter from Pei Mo, all the members of the Pei family were rescued safely, and he was relieved after half a month.

Seeing Fu Yunshu's relieved look, Liu Qingyan said to Fu Yunshu.

Fu Yunshu didn't speak. After a long silence, he looked out of the window and said, "Emperor Zhao's personal guards were all wiped out. He was able to rescue people from the imperial army on the execution ground, which means that there is no one in the capital who can stop him now." Step forward."

They are all moving towards their goals step by step, and they are also getting farther and farther away from each other step by step.

The news of Pei's family being rescued was transmitted to Fengcheng by Pei Mo's handwritten letter in the evening of the next day. Fu Yunshu and Liu Qingyan both heaved a sigh of relief.

Liu Qingyan saw that Fu Yunshu's face was haggard, and there was a bit of melancholy in his eyes. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't explain it due to various reasons, so he could only sigh and said: "You haven't closed your eyes for several days. , now that the Pei family is safe and sound, you should also sleep for a while, the grand ceremony in a few days will not go wrong."

"Brother, I'm fine. Now that my uncle and the others have been rescued safely, I can sleep well." The two were talking when they were interrupted by the sound of panicked footsteps outside. Fu Yunshu's female secret guard.

"Your Highness, it's not good..." The female dark guard said in a panic, and handed the latest secret letter to Fu Yunshu. up.

After reading half of the secret letter, Fu Yunshu felt dizzy, exhausted, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Cloud book!"

"Your Highness!"

Liu Qingyan and the dark guard exclaimed at the same time.

Liu Qingyan didn't know what was written in the secret letter, but seeing Fu Yunshu's appearance, she had a bad feeling.

"Brother, this is why you made me believe him..." Fu Yunshu's weak voice was next to my ear.

Liu Qingyan looked at the flustered female guard and asked, "What happened..."

The female dark guard said in a low voice: "It's the third master who didn't escape and fell into the hands of the emperor. The emperor..."

"Today, the third master was executed by the emperor..." Her words were like thunder on the ground, causing Liu Qingyan's heart to sink to the bottom of the valley.

"Didn't the secret guards be arranged to take over? Everyone in the Pei family was transferred safely. Why did the third master..." Liu Qingyan noticed that her voice was trembling. The deal between Pei Mo is likely to break down, which means that there will be another gap between Xiao Que and Fu Yunshu.

"It's because the third master turned back halfway to rescue Miss Caiwei, but was captured by the Imperial Forest Army by mistake."

However, after Pei Yiyun was arrested by Emperor Zhao, there was no censorship. Emperor Zhao vented all his anger towards the Pei family and hatred towards Xiao Que on Pei Yiyun, and ordered him to be executed. No one would have thought of such an accident, even Xiao When Que got the news, Pei Yiyun had already been ordered to be executed by Emperor Zhao, and what Gu Rui personally brought to rescue him was only a set of bones.
