Chapter 482 Rescued?
Hearing this, Qin Shu couldn't help but look at Xiao Wu in surprise, her eyes full of doubts and worries, "You mean, the emperor's illness this time is also man-made?"
Xiao Wu nodded affirmatively, "Yes. The last time I examined the emperor's pulse, although his pulse was a little unstable, I could feel that under that pulse, the emperor's body should have been very strong, and he would never be dying so soon."
Xiao Wu's explanation was like a heavy bomb, which shocked Qin Shu's heart. This information means that the emperor's current physical discomfort is not accidental, but someone has secretly tampered with it. This insidious behavior is not only shocking, but also reveals a huge conspiracy that may exist deep in the palace.
However, although An Yueya is the most suspicious, after all, her motives and opportunities are there, but whether it is her or not still needs further verification and investigation. Before there is solid evidence, we cannot easily draw conclusions.
The originally cheerful atmosphere suddenly became quiet and solemn at this moment. Everyone's heart was full of worries.
Xiao Xixi looked at her brothers' frowns and couldn't help feeling anxious for them. Although she was young, she also understood the seriousness of this matter. She thought about it, and then said seriously.
"I asked Fan Ren, and he said that An Yueya has been completely reassured about him recently and thinks that he has been completely obedient. Therefore, we have reason to believe that she will soon start to implement her next plan."
Qin Qixuan sighed after hearing this, he knew that Xiao Xixi was telling the truth. They must act as soon as possible to find out the truth and stop An Yueya's conspiracy.
"Princess Jinnan is still on her way. She started from a distant border, so her journey will naturally be a few days slower than Xiaowu. During this time, we still have to rely on the little grandson to make more efforts in the palace and try to make Zhao Zemo's life easier and not let him suffer too much." Qin Qixuan's words revealed his expectations for the little grandson.
Before he finished speaking, Pei Xuanyi's familiar voice suddenly came from outside the door, "Brother Qixuan, are you talking about me?" Along with this gentle and cordial question, Pei Xuanyi, who had not been seen for a long time, appeared in front of them.
When Xiao Xixi saw Pei Xuanyi, her heart was immediately filled with joy. She couldn't help but cheer and jump, "Wow, little brother Huangsun, how did you have time to run out of the palace today?" Her tone was full of surprise and curiosity.
Qin Qixuan looked at Xiao Xixi's excitement, smiled helplessly, and tapped her head gently, "Do you think that the little royal grandson is like you, always thinking about running out?" There was a bit of pampering and blame in his words.
Xiao Xixi was hit a little painful, she whimpered, holding her head in her hands and looking at Qin Qixuan aggrievedly, tears flashing in her eyes, as if she was telling her dissatisfaction and grievance. However, when she saw Pei Xuanyi's concerned eyes, the grievance in her heart suddenly disappeared, replaced by full of happiness and excitement.
Qin Qixuan looked at Pei Xuanyi, with a hint of apology in his eyes.
Pei Xuanyi caught the look in Qin Qixuan's eyes, and his heart sank slightly. After not seeing each other for many days, he felt that Qin Qixuan's attitude towards him seemed to be more polite, which made him a little uncomfortable.
During these days in the palace, he not only had to be on guard against Anyueya's harm to the emperor, but also was troubled by some strange dreams in the dead of night.
Those dreams made him a little afraid to face Xiao Xixi, because every time he saw her, he would have a feeling of not being able to distinguish between dreams and reality, as if their past and the plot in the dream were intertwined, making him confused.
At this moment, seeing Xiao Xixi's lively and cute appearance, Pei Xuanyi was in a trance, but he quickly concealed his emotions and did not let others notice his abnormality.
Qin Shu looked at Pei Xuanyi who suddenly visited, and a trace of doubt rose in her heart.
It's not that she didn't welcome Pei Xuanyi to the Qin Mansion, but she knew that he had been busy with palace affairs during this period and had been holding Anyueya back. His sudden visit at this moment made her wonder if something had happened to Zhao Zemo.
So, she asked tentatively, "Your Highness, Little Grandson, is there anything important that you are visiting this time?" Her tone revealed respect and concern for Pei Xuanyi, and also a hint of exploration.
Qin Shu's thoughts suddenly condensed in the drifting, and an inexplicable sense of tension enveloped her. However, Pei Xuanyi seemed to see through her heart and laughed softly. The laughter was like a spring breeze, instantly dissolving the tense atmosphere.
"Master Qin, don't be nervous." He said gently, "Zhao Zemo is fine."
Qin Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and the heavy stone in her heart finally fell to the ground. But Pei Xuanyi's next words made her nerves, which had just relaxed, tense up again.
"Last time, Brother Qixuan cleverly designed to let An Yuesheng mistakenly arrest his personal nanny's daughter and put her in jail. Coincidentally, after the woman was rescued, she actually revealed to me the place where Zhao Zemo was imprisoned." Pei Xuanyi narrated slowly, and every word was clear and powerful.
Qin Qixuan was stunned when he heard this. Such a coincidence was indeed beyond his expectation. "I originally just asked His Royal Highness the Little Grandson to help me with the response, but I didn't expect things to develop like this." He sighed.
Pei Xuanyi nodded slightly, but his eyes revealed a complex emotion that was difficult to describe. "So I decided to secretly rob the prison and rescue Zhao Zemo." His words were calm and firm. As
soon as these words came out, everyone in the Qin family widened their eyes in shock, as if they couldn't believe their ears.
"What? You brought Zhao Zemo out directly?" Qin Shu's voice trembled with unbelievable shock. This news was too shocking for them to digest for a while. However, they knew that Pei Xuanyi was not a person who would make decisions easily. He must have his reasons and considerations for doing so.
However, no one could have imagined that Pei Xuanyi, as a member of the royal family, would be so direct and guiltless to do such a hellish thing. Everyone who heard this thought that the little emperor was really a god.
Pei Xuanyi seemed to have anticipated their reaction, and he just chuckled.
"I have brought Zhao Zemo out and ordered people to bring him back to the Jinnan Palace. Princess Shuo also knows about this. But try not to make it public, so that no one can find an opportunity to take advantage of it."
The Qin family members breathed a sigh of relief.
Originally, they thought that the matter was imminent, but they didn't expect the little emperor to directly pull Zhao Zemo out.
Although the situation is not optimistic, there is some time to breathe.
However, Xiao Xixi was a little stunned when she heard all this.
She always felt that something was wrong. Would it really be so easy for them to rescue Zhao Zemo?
Things went so smoothly that she was a little scared.
