Chapter 325
After Nanny Gui finished speaking, she turned around and slammed into the corner of the table, but was stopped by Mu Yishu.

"No matter what the reason is, you deserve to die for hurting the empress dowager, but you are an old man next to the empress dowager, and your life and death should be decided by the empress dowager." The emperor frowned, not wanting to take her life right away.

"Damn this servant, I dare to ask the Empress Dowager if she is okay?" Nanny Gui held back her tears and asked cautiously.

"Not good." The emperor was also preoccupied, too many things happened in the palace, and the draft was delayed again and again, so he was somewhat depressed.

Nanny Gui lowered her head in shame.

The emperor didn't want to see her again, so he asked Mu Yishu to put her in a prison and keep him under strict supervision.

As for Eunuch Li, the emperor fined him [-] boards. Whether he lives or dies depends on whether his life is hard enough.

Private execution rooms are not allowed in the palace, and the emperor ordered people to erase the traces in this dark room, so that this dark room can be seen again.

After all this was dealt with, Pei Songzhi still followed the emperor step by step.

The emperor naturally knew of his existence. Although Nanny Gui had already been found out, he should be even more busy, so he couldn't help being a little displeased, "Does Pei Aiqing have something to say?"

"Yes." Pei Songzhi replied with trepidation.

The emperor glanced at him thoughtfully, then turned and entered the royal study.

Pei Songzhi cheekily followed in, knelt down and expressed that he wanted to talk to him alone.

The emperor waved back and forth, and said helplessly, "Get up and talk."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Pei Songzhi breathed a sigh of relief, and the Emperor wasn't in a bad mood, so he told him about the strange things that Su Nanzhen encountered, "I think these two things may have nothing to do with each other, but the person behind the scenes may be the same person .”

"Pei Aiqing thinks there are things in this world that make people lose their minds?" The emperor asked solemnly, this is not a good thing, and the other party actually used the empress dowager's dirty tricks.

What good would it do them to kill the Empress Dowager?
The emperor's face changed drastically. If the empress dowager was gone, the draft would definitely be delayed again. He didn't want to before, but now he regretted it and was anxious.

He vaguely guessed who the person with this intention was, King Ning.

Now that King Ning still has the Supreme Emperor as his backer, the Emperor feels a little bitter.

After getting an affirmative answer from Pei Songzhi, the emperor lowered his eyes.

However, Pei Songzhi didn't dare to take a peek, or the answer was already in his expectation.

The emperor asked him to thoroughly investigate this matter and find out who was behind the scenes.

"I obey the order." Pei Songzhi replied loudly.

He still has some questions to ask Nanny Gui. Only after leaving the palace will he have a chance to read the note Su Nanzhen wrote to him.

After reading the contents of the note, Pei Songzhi changed his mind and asked Qingsong to interrogate Nanny Gui on his behalf. Of course, Yao Dan was the presiding interrogator, and Qingsong just listened.

He still found time to go back and see his wife.

She sent secret guards to investigate the clues she gave, hoping to gain something.

In the Hou Mansion, Su Nanzhen is eating watermelon with Dandan.

The last two pieces of watermelon are in Eggy's hands.

Seeing him coming back, Eggy burped suddenly, looked left and right, then right hand, reluctantly gave up a big piece of watermelon.

"Don't eat so full at night." Pei Songzhi stared at his bulging belly, frowning.

"I'm going for a walk." Eggy put down two pieces of watermelon cruelly, wiped her mouth with her sleeve and ran out.

"Wash your hands and face." Su Nanzhen urged from behind.

"Understood." Eggy responded, and ran away without a trace.

Su Nanzhen looked at the maid who was chasing after him, sighed, pushed a large piece of watermelon to Pei Songzhi's side, and asked Mu Furong to prepare some food.

"I'm really hungry." Pei Songzhi somewhat disliked the piece of watermelon his son gnawed, and picked a small piece to eat.

Su Nanzhen gave him a blank look, and she didn't dislike him, "I thought you wouldn't be coming back tonight."

"It's a bit busy, but your business is also important." Pei Songzhi looked at her and said quietly, "Every day, I don't know when I can be free."

"How is the Empress Dowager?" Su Nanzhen asked concerned.

She planned to go to the palace tomorrow to see the Empress Dowager, but just as she said that, she saw him shaking his head.

"what happened?"

"I told the emperor about you. I'm afraid that the emperor will be jealous, and the empress dowager's condition is not very good. If you enter the palace now..."

Pei Songzhi didn't say the worst result, but Su Nanzhen guessed that although she couldn't be that unlucky, it was something he was worried about. She didn't want to add to his burden, so she agreed with what he said.

"Have you checked the details of that person?" Su Nanzhen asked suddenly, she became an indirect accomplice, even if the emperor didn't care about her, I'm afraid there would be a thorn in his heart, I hope she was just worrying too much.

"I asked someone to investigate. In fact, that person is very likely to be hiding in Prince Ning's Mansion, but I don't have any evidence right now." Pei Songzhi sighed, this was what depressed him the most.

Even if he sent someone to watch that person, he didn't dare to get too close, for fear of attracting the other person's attention.

"One hundred secrets and one sparse, he probably won't be able to guess which flower I will guess." Su Nanzhen comforted him. Although she was not very sure at the moment, there were probably nine out of ten.

Pei Songzhi listened carefully to her description of the flower's color, shape and growth conditions, etc., but he didn't have any impression in his mind. If Hong Jiao was there, maybe he could have some clues, or she knew how to make such a medicine.

The emperor was quite afraid of such medicine, if Hong Jiao could have an antidote, it might be able to relieve the knot in the emperor's heart.

Pei Songzhi and Su Nanzhen talked about their thoughts, and they couldn't reveal half of the known clues for the time being, but asked her to ask Hong Jiao to come and help her as a friend.

Now it is heard that Emperor Chen has disclosed his identity and returned to Liuzhou.

The matter of the true and false emperor caused an uproar in Chen Guo. The faction of the false emperor had to rebel.

Wei Guo didn't take advantage of the danger, but he didn't help either.

Although Li Ke wanted to ask for help, but the situation was not yet clear, and the state of Wei was also in troubled times, the emperor was very worried, and the ministers in the court were arguing over the matter, so she put it on hold for now.

Pei Songzhi didn't hide these things from her, and told her all of them.

Su Nanzhen was so engrossed that he almost didn't realize that his last sentence was asking her.

"I think we're just guessing. I don't know if Hong Jiao can get away. I can try to contact her, but you can also go to the palace and look up related books. Maybe you can gain something."

"Well, this is also a way, it seems that I have to be busy for a while." Pei Songzhi sighed faintly.

"Are you going to leave now?" Su Nanzhen was worried that he was hungry, and just wanted Mu Furong to ask, Mu Jin came over with food and said softly, "I won't stop you if you are going to be busy, but at least you have to Have a full stomach before going back to work.”

"En." Pei Songzhi responded, gobbled up the food, and left the Hou Mansion in a hurry.
