Chapter 442 The key person is gone
Huo Yuan also comforted at the right time: "Fanyin, no matter what you do, we will support you. As long as you don't betray us, we will never mess up."
Having said all this, Pei Yi could only explain in detail: "Last night, there was a lot of commotion caused by the inner guard's forcible intrusion into the Third Prince's Mansion. These human spirits will always find out some news. So, I plan to..."
She told the men again what she said to the old emperor last night, to the effect that the inner guard came to the third prince's mansion to investigate the prince's private life, and found that the third prince was with Pei Yi, Xun Huan, Xiao Jun, etc. Do a four-person exercise. The inner guard was shocked, and clashed with the third prince and his gang on the spot.
And the group of them entered the palace in a carriage early today, in order to explain to the emperor the conflict of last night, and to make a deep review of the "four-person movement".
According to Pei Yi's thinking, she can cover up the whole thing quite easily with this method, even their handling of the case is completely covered up.
However, this method is too shameful, and Pei Yi fears that the three big bosses will not agree.
Sure enough, after she, Balabala, finished explaining, several big bosses fell silent in unison.
Pei Yi felt awkward, and resentfully said: "If you think it's inappropriate, then I..." I won't change it! Because this is already the most suitable way to prevaricate!
However, before she could finish her shameless words, Xiao Junji took the first step and said: "This method is actually quite good. However, last night, we arrived at the palace in one step by the rear guards, which is different from yours just now." It doesn't match up."
Xun Huan smiled inscrutably, and said meanly: "Even if the chronological order is not in line, so what? Will they remember what the original version was? Even if someone remembers it, they will naturally know that this initial version is full of loopholes, which will definitely trigger a new round of sexual conjectures."
Huo Yuan took it for granted, slightly nodded and said: "Not bad."
Pei Yi looked at the men talking in surprise.
She asked uncertainly: "Do you agree with this method?"
Huo Yuan was the first to answer: "I agree."
Xun Huan also quickly replied: "I agree."
Xiao Junji also replied very positively: "I agree."
This scene inexplicably reminds Pei Yi of a group of grooms swearing "I do" at a wedding.
Pei Yi felt a little funny in her heart, but she forced herself to be calm and said: "Well, this matter is settled like this."
Actually, she was quite confused. Four people traveling together should be unacceptable to big bosses like Huo Yuan, Xun Huan, and Xiao Junji, but who would have thought that these big guys would calmly accept this plan, It really surprised her.
What Pei Yi doesn't know is that these men have their own plans, but they all lead to the same goal by different routes - admitting that Pei Yi said "foursome", isn't it the same as admitting that Pei Yi has an affair with them? Find Pei Yi to be "responsible"~
After a while, the carriage arrived at the palace gate.
Horse-drawn carriages are not allowed in the palace, so Pei Yi and his party got out of the carriage and walked as usual.
Xun Huan walked around to the side of the car and took the dog leash tied to the handlebar into his hand.
The **** dog rushed towards him immediately, his eyes were very eager, as if he had met his lover.
However, before it touched Xun Huan, the latter kicked it.
The **** dog pawed on the ground, howling in grievance.
Xun Huan said with disgust: "Be honest! Otherwise, you will never find a wife in your life!"
The **** dog became quieter now, and silently followed behind Xun Huan, but still breathed out, looking very patient and irritable.
Xiao Junji frowned slightly, and complained in a low voice: "Is this dog in heat?"
Xun Huan smiled, revealing a row of white faces, as if he was going to eat people.
Pei Yi patted Xun Huan's head, frowned and said, "Don't mess around!"
Xun Huan touched the back of the head being patted, feeling a strange sense of ease in his heart. He said with a smirk: "I won't mess around. If I really want to mess around, I won't bring the dog, I will bring the boar."
Pei Yi's head was full of black lines, and she felt that she had nothing to say.
When we reached the gate of the palace, the guards really stopped the **** dog from entering.
Just as Xun Huan was about to argue, an inner guard hurried over and said with an apologetic smile, "I'm late! Commander Sun asked me to take you to the convenient passage!"
After he finished speaking, he saw the **** dog.
The **** dog also looked at him eagerly, sticking out his tongue and breathing, as if he was going to enter the palace for a blind date.
Xun Huan straightened his waist, and said confidently: "This dog is my right-hand man."
The inner guard smiled and did not refute, but stepped aside: "Everyone, please." Their inner guard also has a lot of dogs, which are also used to assist in handling cases, so this Xun Sijie brought dogs, he is very happy. understand.
Pei Yi was dumbfounded, just such a dangerous big dog... entered the palace so easily?
With a convenient passage to go, Pei Yi and his party quickly arrived at the Shuyi Palace—the place where Zhou Jieyu is now being held.
The palace here was originally Zhou Jieyu’s usual residence—the reason why the old emperor didn’t put her in jail was also to solve everything as quietly as possible.
As soon as she stepped into the Shuyi Hall, Pei Yi saw Commander Sun of the Internal Guard approaching her.
Commander Sun had an anxious and heavy expression on his face.
Pei Yi felt bad.
Sure enough, Commander Sun brought bad news in the next second: "Lord Pei, Zhou Jieyu is dead!"
It wasn't that Zhou Jieyu wanted to die, nor was it that the inner guard wanted to kill her.
But last night when the inner guard interrogated Zhou Jieyu about the cause of the fetus in her womb, they had to beat her up.
After Zhou Jieyu was sent back to her bedroom, she became famous that night.
The eunuchs and maids in her palace knew that she was a sinner who had cuckolded the emperor, and none of them were willing to hire an imperial doctor for her.
The inner guards guarded outside the dormitory, and they didn't know about Zhou Jieyu's situation.
When I went to summon Zhou Jieyu today, I found that Zhou Jieyu was already dead, and her body was cold.
"I didn't think carefully about this matter!" Commander Sun blamed himself very much. Such an important witness died in such a muddle-headed way. How can this case continue?
Pei Yi was also very depressed and anxious.
However, things have already happened, and it is useless to be more harsh.
Pei Yiqiang calmed down, and said in a deep voice, "Commander Sun doesn't need to blame himself. No one expected this kind of thing to happen. Although Zhou Jieyu is dead now, as long as people do things, they will always leave traces. , the traces cannot be erased once she dies."
