After Pei Duqin withdrew, Queen Pei sighed, "If he could defend himself, I might be able to deceive myself. I and my sister-in-law guessed wrong, but he actually acquiesced.
I really don’t understand, Yan Mingzhu is just a concubine, not even comparable to those humble concubines from aristocratic families, why Qin’er is so outstanding, why would he do something to her alone?
thought?"
Aunt Lu comforted her and said: "The Queen, please don't be too worried. Maybe the second young master is just temporarily bewitched by Yan Mingzhu. This woman's methods are quite clever. Not to mention the second young master, King Dingbei is also bewitched by her."
Have to go around?
Just take advantage of this opportunity, when the time is ripe, your Majesty, please let the second young master deal with Yan Mingzhu personally. If the second young master can do this, he will definitely end the relationship that should not have been there.
"
Queen Pei took a sip of tea and sighed: "I hope everything goes well, let them find the right opportunity to take action. This time, they must understand Qi Jue's life, so that my son can sit back and relax on his way to the throne in the future."
."
After coming out of Kunning Palace, Pei Duqin suddenly turned to look at Mao Lin who was following him, "Did you tell my mother about me painting while drunk?"
Maolin was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground, "I am wronged. I never said anything. It was... Madam discovered it by herself that day. Because you were very drunk, Master, she went to take care of you personally.
Just when the servant was interrupting, the waste paper rolled out of the wastebasket and Madam saw it. Young Master, you also know Madam's abilities."
As long as you are not blind, you will understand after seeing the portrait on the paper. After all, who has nothing to do and would draw a portrait of a woman, and draw so many portraits?
Only those who are unable to love and cannot express their feelings will behave like this.
Pei Duqin didn't ask any more, he just frowned and raised his hand to signal him to come over.
Maolin stood up quickly and leaned over. Pei Duqin whispered in his ear: "You don't have to follow me to Dali Temple. Find someone, a woman who is very similar to Yan Mingzhu in body shape and demeanor. Then
…”
After listening to the instructions, Maolin raised his head in surprise, "Sir, this..."
"Just go ahead and do it. If this matter gets leaked, you won't have to wait in the Pei Mansion."
Maolin suppressed the shock in his heart and quickly lowered his head and responded: "Yes, young master."
After giving the instructions, Pei Duqin rode directly to Dali Temple.
When he arrived at the door, he happened to bump into Ming Xingjian.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just been carried away. It seems that some people are still unwilling to settle down. Are they trying to follow in the footsteps of His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Ming Xingjian did not have a good attitude towards the Pei family. Pei Duqin got off his horse and was not upset. He only said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was assassinated in Dali Temple. He is still unconscious. The Queen has specially ordered me to find out the assassin. Ming
What do you think, Mr. Shaoqing?"
"You know exactly what you are here to investigate. You can investigate as you wish, but if you dare to touch Miss Yan, don't blame me for being rude."
Leaving behind a threatening word, Ming Xingjian ignored him and walked straight in.
Cai Siqing saw that Ming Xingjian and Pei Duqin were both here. They were really the best of the two, especially Pei Duqin, who was from the prince's mother's family. He came here to settle accounts.
"Master Cai, I heard from the guards accompanying His Highness the Crown Prince that when something happened to His Highness, he was only in the same room with the suspect who had just been escorted in. I wonder if I can ask the suspect something?"
Cai Siqing did not dare to agree, but asked the question to Ming Xingjian, "Second Master Pei, it's not that I don't agree, but that this case is solely the responsibility of His Highness King Dingbei.
His Highness handed the suspect over to Mr. Ming for custody, so if Mr. Pei wants to interrogate the suspect, he should ask Mr. Ming first. I am afraid I do not have the authority to make a decision."
This old fox felt that neither the Ming family nor the Pei family could afford to offend, so he simply put his hands together and let the two families solve the problem on their own.
"His Royal Highness King Dingbei said that the evidence currently available is insufficient. Before he finds new evidence, no one can interrogate him in advance. Only he can do it in person. Therefore, if there is nothing wrong with Mr. Pei, please ask
Go back."
Pei Duqin did not move, but said: "I don't want to interrogate in advance, but just want to ask a few questions. Although His Royal Highness King Dingbei is the chief judge of this case, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also the deputy judge.
Now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been assassinated and is unconscious, I will not be allowed to even ask the only witness a few questions, right? Or maybe there is something hidden in this, and Mr. Ming is afraid that I will see something wrong.
Come?"
"Miss Yan was also seriously injured. She is currently recuperating and has no energy to accept questioning."
Pei Duqin was still talking to Ming Xingjian in a friendly manner, but after hearing that Yan Mingzhu was also injured, his expression suddenly changed.
"If that's the case, don't blame Pei for forcing his way in."
Pei Duqin gave the guard who was following him a look, then strode towards the Tianlao.
"Pei Duqin!"
Ming Xingjian took action immediately, and Pei Duqin stepped aside. At the same time, the guards behind him stepped forward and exchanged hands with Ming Xingjian. Pei Duqin took advantage of this opportunity and quickly headed towards Tianlao.
Dali Temple Shaoqing saw the fight starting, and hurriedly asked Cai Siqing: "Sir, isn't this...this should be stopped?"
"What are you trying to stop? This one is the eldest son of the Ming family, and the other is the second son of the Pei family. Neither of them can be provoked by you or me. Let them make noise. Anyway, this case is handled by His Highness King Dingbei.
Responsible for everything,
I'm just helping out. I have so much to do, but it's still thankless. I just pretend that I don't see anything."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cai Siqing shouted: "Master Ming, don't fight, don't fight!"
He said not to fight, but Cai Siqing himself stood still. It can be said that he brought the spirit of the old fox to the extreme.
Pei Duqin walked in a hurry all the way. As soon as he entered the Tianlao, he was greeted by the aroma of food, mixed with the strong aroma of wine.
And amid this fragrance, laughter echoed continuously throughout the prison.
At this moment, Pei Duqin thought that he had gone to the wrong prison, so he couldn't help but exit and take another look. This was indeed a prison.
It's just that the sky prison is not all gloomy. How could this rich fragrance and this wanton laughter come from the sky prison?
There were many cells spaced apart from one another in the Tianjiao, but Pei Duqin saw the beautiful figure in Tianzi No. 1 cell almost at the first glance.
The sight in the cell was dim and the conditions were simple. Yan Mingzhu just sat on the haystack casually, but her snow-like skin was different from usual crimson.
Her eyebrows are stretched, and there is an undisguised smile in her eyes. She is in a humble room, but she is so dazzling that people can't take their eyes away after just one look.
At this moment, Pei Duqin thought that no one in this world could be as free and carefree as her.
