After waiting for a long time, Wang Zhenying finally walked out of the cell door. Niu Hu, who had been guarding the door, breathed a deep sigh of relief.

It’s not easy!

I finally gave it up!

"The Queen!"

The moment they stepped out of the cell door, Niuhu and Hexiang came up to them at the same time. In unison, Wang Zhenying pushed Niuhu aside, leaving only Hexiang to serve by her side.

"General Niu, although Zhang Guiren has committed a crime, she is still the late emperor's favorite, so don't treat her too harshly."

When she reaches Wang Zhenying's position, she can give favors or blame to others without any scruples. It's not that she sympathizes with Zhang Guiren, but this time, Xiao Zhang is of some use to her.

Although she was reluctant, it also solved many of her doubts.

From all aspects, it is not difficult to give Xiao Zhang some face.

"Yes, I obey." Niuhu agreed happily, and Wang Zhenying's instructions were exactly what he wanted.

He was just thinking about giving Xiao Zhang a slightly better treatment. She was a beauty after all, so it was not a problem that she always suffered like this.

He is a soft-spoken man and can't make the final decision on many things. Now, with the Queen's will, he can take action boldly and confidently.

Niuhu was carried away smoothly, but on the other side, Wang Zhenying, who quickly got on the carriage, changed her face in an instant.

"What is your question?"

Wang Zhenying's face was so ugly that any passerby could see it, let alone a close palace maid like He Xiang.

"Asking is a question."

"It's just that the result is not very good."

"The situation is getting more and more complicated."

"Then what do you want to do next?"

"Then Pei Jiao'er is still locked up in Qingyin Palace!"

"If she is really the mastermind behind the scenes, we will be in trouble if she runs away after a long time!"

In the prison, Xiao Zhang's life was difficult, but outside the prison, the situation of Pei Jiao'er, who was bound by the same fate as her, was only slightly better.

Although Zhang Guiren was blocking her in front and no one could catch her, her suspicion was still unclear.

how to say?

This seems to be the case. Because of Zhang Guiren's interference, even without evidence, Pei Jiaoer has become the number one suspicious person.

It can be said that as long as Xiao Zhang does not die, Xiao Pei will not be able to walk out of the Qingyin Palace.

Zhang Guiren is in jail, while Pei Jiaoer is under house arrest. This situation started from the night Wang Mi invited her to the side hall.

Although Pei Jiaoer did it very secretly and could hardly find any flaws, Wang Mi still guarded against her.

After all, others don't know her origin, but Wang Mi knows it very well.

It would be strange if a demon girl brought into the palace by the Celestial Master did not become a demon!

Such a dangerous person must be closely watched and prevented from leaving the palace.

Since Wang Mi made such a decision, everyone in the harem, especially the Queen Wang Zhenying, the master of the harem, raised their hands in approval.

Although she didn't have much contact with Pei Jiao'er, and she didn't even meet her a few times, she knew that this woman was very dangerous, and she absolutely couldn't let her go just because her relationship hadn't been investigated yet.

Don’t forget that this woman has connections with people outside the palace!

If she was given such a chance, she could easily escape!

When the time comes, it will be difficult to pursue the case again.

"He Xiang, go and send a message to let the eldest brother come to the palace."

Wang Zhenying looked outside the curtain. The scenery in Jiankang Palace was still so pleasant, and it was not diminished at all by Sima Yao's sudden departure.

This is what the saying goes as spring passes and autumn comes!

The four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter will never change just because humans come and go.

I don't know whether this is a happy thing or a sad thing.

While Wang Zhenying was busy investigating the truth behind Sima Yao's death, her brother Wang Gong was not idle either.

Ever since he got Xie An's approval, he became more cautious. While he was busy looking for a suitable reign name for Sima Dezong, he was also considering a suitable date for his accession to the throne.

On Wuyi Lane, Prince Langya's Mansion.

The situation is getting better and better, and there are more and more people gathering. Under the great situation, Sima Daozi, who should be proud of the spring breeze, is not in a good mood.

Since Sima Yao's sudden death, he also tore off the mask of disguise and directly asked Sun Tai to move to the palace.

As long as he wants to see him, he can wave his hand and walk a few steps to see him.

So simple, so convenient.

However, Sima Daozi's convenience was Sun Tai's trouble.

A few days ago, Sun Tai was quite satisfied with this situation. They no longer had to find someone else to pass on the news about their conspiracy, they could communicate face to face.

However, in the past few days, the situation seems to have changed subtly.

For some reason, Sima Daozi's attitude towards Sun Tai gradually became less enthusiastic, and Sun Tai later understood.

They are all urgent!

No, Sun Tai deliberately avoided Sima Daozi, but he was still caught by him.

It’s no wonder, the palace belongs to someone else, and there are spies of the palace everywhere. Can he, a great master of the Celestial Master Dao, stop them from informing Sima Daozi?

Of course not!

Therefore, Sun Tai, who had just hid on the side of the garden, was stopped by Sima Daozi before he could even take a look at the beautiful scenery.

"Master Tian, ​​when will we start the uprising?"

"Is there any news from Jingkou?"

Sun Tai was anxious, but Sima Daozi was even more anxious than him. Their relationship was not good these days because the situation in Jingkou was not clear yet.

Last time, Sun Taike patted his chest and assured Sima Daozi that Liu Laozhi, the general guarding Jingkou, was already his.

Absolutely loyal and reliable, as long as he raises his arms, Liu Laozhi will respond immediately.

However, a few days passed, and things seemed to develop beyond Sun Tai's expectations.

The last time I received news from Sun En, it did not mention the specific time for raising troops. This is also normal. The situation on the court's side needs to be further determined. The Jiankang side is uncertain, and the Jingkou side will definitely not take the lead.

of.

However, after Sima Daozi made up his mind, Sun Tai sent two letters to Sun En in succession, the purpose of which was to inquire about the specific date of launching the army.

But now, seeing that the scheduled date is approaching, we have not yet received any news from Beifu.

In the first few days, Sun Tai was not too anxious and could even comfort Sima Daozi not to worry.

However, as time flew by, Sun Tai's excuses became less and less, but Sima Daozi's impatience became more and more.

In the past two days, Sun Tai could not even think of an excuse, so he simply hid in various places in the palace, trying not to encounter Sima Daozi.

This will definitely not last long.

Although the palace was large, Sima Daozi couldn't help but want to see him. After all, this was still his territory, and Sun Tai didn't have the courage to directly explain the situation to Sima Daozi.

Moving away is even more impossible!

It is foreseeable that as long as Sima Daozi has not become emperor, Sun Tai can only stay in this palace and be tied to the same rope as him.

Sun Tai gradually felt that it was not a particularly wise choice to be tied to Sima Daozi prematurely.

Now he couldn't retreat even if he wanted to, because he had been bitten hard by Sima Daozi.

"Your Highness, not yet."

Although he wanted to hide it, Sun Tai was not unaware of the importance of this matter. He had no choice but to tell the truth.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Sima Daozi's face became even heavier.

"Tianshi, what's the situation over there at Jingkou?"

"Does Liu Laozhi really want to join forces with us?"

"Is he waiting for a price?"

The situation has become so obvious that even Sima Daozi, a fool, has noticed that something is wrong, and Sun Tai really has a headache.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, General Liu's cooperation with us will be of great benefit to himself. He supports us not only to be loyal to Tianshi Dao and to Your Highness, but also to control the Beifu soldiers."

"Faced with such huge interests, Liu Laozhi will not back down!"

"Yeah?"

"can you?"

Sima Daozi asked two consecutive questions, revealing the doubts in his heart. Sima Daozi no longer believed in Sun Tai's various promises.
