"General Deng, do you know?"

General Deng originally had his eyes flashed and avoided Zhesheng's eyes, but when he heard him ask himself this, he suddenly became more righteous again, and looked at Zhesheng with fierce eyes and said, "I don't know what you are talking about!"

But after saying this, he immediately turned his eyes away.

When Pei Yuanhao saw this scene, his eyes became deeper.

Zhesheng still looked at him and said, "Do you really not know? Or should you ask your subordinates? Due to martial law in Linfen City these days, all the shops have not opened to do business. There is only one store selling four treasures of the study. It took over a business a few days ago. They seem to know one of you-"

The more he spoke, the more frightened the expression on General Deng’s face seemed to be forced back step by step with someone with a sharp sword. But just as Zhesheng was about to stab the sword into his chest, Pei Yuanhao suddenly said: “Enough!”

His voice was not loud, but everyone was shocked.

Zhesheng stopped suddenly and turned to look at him. Everyone turned to look at the emperor who suddenly spoke. Pei Yuanhao slowly stood up from the chair and said, "I already know what you want to say."

“…”

"You go down first."

“…”

Zhesheng frowned, turned his head to look at General Deng, who was already looking like a slight face. He seemed to be a little unwilling to accept it, and gritted his teeth and said, "But, the emperor, this matter is obviously--"

But at this time, Chang Qing, who was standing beside him, also stood up and waved to him: "The emperor already knows your loyalty, you can go down first."

“…”

"For this, you have done your best so hard that you should go back and rest."

“…”

"Yuquan, let them go back first."

Although she was instructing Eunuch Yu, she glanced at me when she spoke.

They all knew very well that I had an impact on the students in Jixian Palace. After thinking about it, I turned to look at Zhesheng and nodded gently.

Then he accepted his fate, stomped his feet gently, and then retreated with gratitude.

Looking at his resentful expression, I still felt a little distressed. After all, I understood that he came here with the mentality of avenging his senior brother, but he was intercepted like this halfway through, and he was inevitably unwilling to accept it.

However, when he turned around and left, General Deng on the other side immediately breathed a sigh of relief. When he was about to look up at Pei Yuanhao, he felt the aura that almost turned the person shorter. He immediately turned pale and didn't even dare to breathe.

"Emperor...Emperor..."

Pei Yuanhao did not talk to him, but turned to look at Zhang Ziyu who had been silent and said, "Your people have worked hard all night. If it weren't for them, this great victory would be difficult. Let's go and rest. Tomorrow, I will reward you on the merits."

Zhang Ziyu immediately said as if nothing had happened just now: "I will receive the order."

After saying that, he took several of his subordinates away.

When these people came just now, they saw General Deng's arrogant look, and they were all very dissatisfied. At this time, they understood a little bit what was going on. Some people had a gloating expression on their faces. They snorted coldly when passing by him, and then left.

General Deng stood there alone, and at this moment he was trembling like a sieve. His legs were almost unable to stand firm and he was about to kneel down. The reason why he was still standing there was not speaking yet was because Chang Qing and I were still there.

Since Pei Yuanhao has asked Zhesheng and Zhang Ziyu to take his people away, then we—

Sure enough, the next moment, Pei Yuanhao said: "Queen, it's getting late, so you can go back too."

"I follow the order."

After she finished speaking, she immediately got up and walked out. When she walked to me, she wanted to pull me, but when she saw me standing there, not intending to leave, she hesitated for a moment and called me softly: "Qingying."

But I said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Empress, this matter - I think I need to know the truth."

“…”

“…”

Both of them were silent.

Pei Yuanhao also knew very well that these rumors were all about Liu Qinghan. After the rumors came out, the one who was most affected was Liu Qinghan. Now Qinghan is gone, and I have the right to know the truth.

Pei Yuanhao waved his hand to Chang Qing, and Chang Qing turned around and left.

The only three of us left behind.

At this moment, although you could still hear the footsteps of Chang Qing and the others walking downstairs, and the cheers of the people at the city gate praise him not far downstairs, a bamboo curtain blocked all the atmosphere. The atmosphere here was frozen and cold, and the hostility of Pei Yuanhao was getting heavier and heavier.

The moment he turned his eyes to General Deng, he heard a plop, and General Deng knelt down suddenly.

"emperor!"

As soon as he knelt down, he completely admitted that he was the one who did those things!

Pei Yuanhao's face looked a little ugly than before, but he was not furious yet, but he just narrowed his eyes slightly, like a hunting lion and tiger: "It's really you."

"Emperor, the emperor forgives his crimes, the emperor forgives his crimes!"

"Excuse me?"

Pei Yuanhao raised his hand and was about to slap the table, but hesitated for a moment, then held the jade with his back hand, pinched it hard and slowly put it on the table, and said in a deep voice: "You did this, and you still want me to forgive you?"

“…”

"You criminals deceive the monarch, what else can you say?"

“…”

"I really didn't expect it was you!"

General Deng knelt in front of him and kowtowed like pounding garlic: "Give me your life, and you your life!"

I stood aside and felt a wave of anger flowing out from my chest. This man actually did such a thing for his own selfishness. If it really caused a conflict between Pei Yuanhao and Liu Qinghan, and the two of them really fought fiercely, the situation would be really hard to deal with!

I gritted my teeth and looked at him, wishing Pei Yuanhao could immediately order him to be executed!

General Deng was still kowtowing and begging for mercy. He knelt down and walked to Pei Yuanhao, and kowtowed several times one after another, almost bleeding from his forehead. Then he lay at his feet and said, "Your Majesty, the guilty minister deserves to die! The guilty minister was just obsessed with the ghosts and did such a thing..."

"A moment of obsession?"
