Chapter 406 Say the Strongest Words
Pei Mo still held his hands when he said this, and seemed to be very respectful to the emperor, but the words he spoke were so strong that he seemed to know the bounds of heaven and earth.
Li Fuquan wiped his sweat secretly at the side. Probably only the general Zhenguo in the whole court dared to speak to the emperor like this.
The emperor was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Pei Mo blankly and wanted to explain that he had never thought of it this way, but after having been in a high position for many years, he had long forgotten what an 'explanation' was.
He felt that he had been humiliated by Pei Mo, and turned away with his sleeves turned away with a pale face.
"Unfortunately, I still feel that I have wronged General Pei. I never thought that in General Pei's heart, I am such a person who cannot distinguish between black and white!"
Out of sight of the emperor, disgust flashed in Pei Mo's eyes. He couldn't help but wonder if this old man often said things like 'I've wronged you' when his mother was still alive.
Before today, Pei Mo had no negative emotions towards the emperor. Today's conversation only made him feel chilled and disgusted.
But when people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads.
Pei Mo said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was the one who offended me."
Now that there are steps, the emperor also 'stops when he sees fit', "General Pei still knows how to offend? I think you are confident!"
Although his tone was a bit harsh, he was not angry with Pei Mo. Instead, he felt that this was his true nature.
Little did he know that if it weren't for Pei Mo's face that was somewhat similar to his own, and if someone else had stood in front of him and said such words, he would have died long ago.
The emperor turned around and looked up at the sun rising higher and higher in the sky. "That's all. I won't punish General Pei anymore. Let's go. I'm tired of seeing this scenery."
After this conversation, the emperor walked in the front. Even though he deliberately slowed down, Pei Mo always fell behind him. The distance was not far or close, but it made people feel indifferent and alienated.
No one said anything along the way. When they reached the shade, the emperor stopped and turned to look at Pei Mo.
Pei Mo lowered his eyebrows and let him look at him, even though he felt uncomfortable with his gaze.
I don't know what he thought of, but the emperor suddenly said, "General Pei, you really care about Mrs. Lin, why don't you let Sheng Xiuyu confine her in the palace, and you have to go to all the trouble to get her out of the palace? Isn't Sheng Xiuyu already
If you have prepared the gunpowder, wouldn't it be good to induce him to tell you about his imprisonment of your aunt?"
This was not over yet, he changed the subject, "Or is it that the purpose of General Pei's doing this is not to let Lin and Sheng Xiuyu face to face, but has other ideas, such as letting Lin make the matter of being a concubine public?"
At this moment, the emperor's thoughts were infinitely close to the truth.
As soon as these words came out, Li Fuquan, who was following not far away, had an indescribable shock on his face. He understood why the emperor wanted to see Pei Mo's official documents.
Doesn’t the emperor think that Pei Mo is a descendant of Ru Fei’s maternal clan, the Lu family?
This is simply ridiculous, Li Fuquan smacked his tongue in his heart.
However, the truth is far more absurd than he imagined.
A big stone hit Pei Mo's heart. He was so overwhelmed that he was speechless for a moment.
His pause made the emperor's eyes become questioning and scrutinizing. Under this look, Pei Mo actually felt cold all over.
So the bond from blood is something that people can’t escape, right?
Pei Mo felt helpless and muttered to himself in his heart. It seemed that he was helpless in reality, and his eyes were somewhat evasive.
At this moment, Murong Qing was even more frightened. She subconsciously grabbed Pei Mo's arm, as if grasping a life-saving straw. She quickly calmed down and accepted the sentence for Pei Mo.
"Your Majesty, may I allow this poor concubine to say a word?"
She shook her hands and summoned up the courage to step forward and stand in front of Pei Mo.
Murong Qing's eyes were clear and bright, like a clear pool in the forest that had never been visited by anyone. Looking at these eyes, the emperor subconsciously could not say a word of rejection.
"Say it."
Murong Qing pursed her lips slightly and thought for a moment before speaking, "Your Majesty has misunderstood. It was not the general who spent so much effort to save Lin... Lin from the palace, but Lin herself who ran away from the palace."
The emperor was surprised, "How can you say this?"
Seeing that the lie he had made up had attracted the emperor, Murong Qing suppressed the joy in his heart, his mind was spinning rapidly, and at the same time he had a troubled expression on his face.
"Your Majesty, you don't know. Mrs. Lin seemed to be a little confused. At that time, she somehow escaped the eyes of the imperial guards and guards and ran to the street. It happened to be night and there was no one on the road. I was a poor concubine that day.
After chatting with Mrs. Wang for a long time, I had to rush back to the General's Mansion at night. When I saw Mrs. Lin in the alley, she was trying to get into someone else's house through a narrow dog hole. The poor concubine recognized Mrs. Lin.
After getting off the carriage, I asked her what happened."
Speaking of this, Murong Qing made a look of fear, "What I didn't expect was that Lin got into my carriage and couldn't get out. She even asked me to take her back to the general's mansion. I had no choice but to take her back to the general's mansion."
The concubine had no choice but to obey her wishes and return to the General's Mansion. Only then did the Lin family stabilize and the poor concubine found an opportunity to talk to her."
"From her words, the poor concubine knew that Sheng Xiuyu had confined her in the palace, so she told the general about it. Later, the general used his plan to catch Sheng Xiuyu off guard, so he did not send Mrs. Lin back to the palace.
.”
The emperor was doubtful after hearing this, "Is there such a thing?"
Murong Qing paused and then said, "It's absolutely true that I don't dare to deceive the emperor. By the way, when Lin was in the General's Mansion, I asked a doctor to see Lin. The doctor said that Lin seemed to be a little lost.
I’m crazy and I don’t know if it’s true.”
Speaking of this, the emperor was even more hesitant. He recalled the report sent by the imperial army. In it, during the interrogation of the subordinates, it was said that Lin went crazy for a while and said that he saw the resentful ghost of Concubine Ru.
There was also the incident that when the slave in Huichun Palace was executed that day, the eunuch came to report that Mrs. Lin actually held the slave's head and cried until she died.
Could it be that Mrs. Lin really felt guilty about Ru Fei and then went crazy?
The emperor thought, looked at the eyes in front of him and said, "Whether Mrs. Lin is really crazy or not, I have sent someone to send her to the imperial mausoleum and let her stay there for the rest of her life. She will never come out to make trouble again."
, you don’t need to worry.”
At this time, the emperor did not know that the person guarding the imperial mausoleum had been betrayed by Pei Mo, and Lin Rongyan was probably still on her way to Bei Mo.
Pei Mo thought, probably the emperor would never have the chance to know in his lifetime.
Murong Qingfu said, "This poor concubine feels at ease now. Thank you, Your Majesty, for informing me."
This nonsense was very successful in disturbing the emperor's mind. He no longer paid attention to Pei Mo, but just walked along to admire the autumn scenery in the palace.
But they also let Pei Mo and Murong Qing stay in the palace for a long time before letting them out.
