Chapter 69 Bold Assumptions

"No!" Di Renjie said decisively.

"Why not?" Wei Chengqing frowned, "At this point, Di Sizheng still doesn't believe Pei Xingjian will rebel?"

Liu Sili also said: "Even if Pei Xingjian does not rebel, Li Daoen, Pei Qi and others from the Right Guard will force him to rebel. Yes, that's right, it's probably how it is!"

"Pei Xingjian may not be aware of all this."

"It's probably what Pei Qi and Li Daoen do."

"They want to use Pei Xingjian to rebel!"

"This is just a guess and cannot be used as evidence." Di Renjie said.

"There are too many doubts in this case, and we must not arrest people rashly."

"You need to know that Pei Qi is not an ordinary person. He is not only the adopted son of General Pei, but also the steward of Pei's mansion."

"If the matter was not what we guessed, but was wronged by General Pei, the consequences would be unimaginable."

"General Pei had no intention of rebelling, but if he learned that Pei Qi was arrested and involved in a major case of rebellion, would he really rebel in fear?"

"Everyone, this case needs to be cautious!"

Wei Chengqing said: "How can Pei Xingjian know that he is in the northern border?"

Di Renjie asked back: "How to ensure that General Pei doesn't know?"

Wei Chengqing was silent because no one could guarantee that the news would not be leaked.

All the people in Pei’s mansion can be arrested, but what about Pei Xingjian’s disciple and old official?

Pei Xingjian was like a giant pillar to the Tang Dynasty. His disciples and former officials were everywhere in the court. If Pei Qi was really arrested, some people would go to report the news to him!

Liu Sili said in a deep voice: "What should I do? Do nothing while sitting?"

"Yes." Wei Chengqing said again, "If our speculation is correct, but in the end he missed the opportunity for war because of his fear of one's head and one's head, you and me will become the sinners of the Tang Dynasty!"

Di Renjie said: "Or what if Qin Zhen will be tried again?"

"This is useless." Wei Chengqing said, "Qin Zhen can't speak. Even if he speaks, it's useless. At most, he will only give up his employer, Pei Qi, but we already know the result."

Di Renjie nodded silently, and the relationship between Shukang Lang was still simple.

It is a pure employment relationship and there is no other involvement.

At this time, Pei Shaoqing suddenly said, "I also agree with Di Sizheng's judgment."

"Although so far, all the clues have pointed to the Pei Mansion. Li Daoen is the Lang general of the Right Guard, and he is also the confidant general of the Right Guard General Pei Xingjian, and Pei Qi is the adopted son of Pei Xingjian."

"Li Daoen wants to kill the princess, and Pei Qi even destroys Wang Desheng's mouth."

"So no matter how you look at it, Pei Xingjian is unrelated."

"But as Di Si said, if Pei Xingjian wants to rebel,"

"Why did he kill the princess? After all, Xiaguan was at the scene of Jiuli Village at that time, so it was clear that Li Daoen did not intend to do it temporarily, but was just intentional murder!"

"If you don't figure this out, you will rashly draw a conclusion, which may lead to a big mistake!"

Liu Sili said: "Pei Sicheng, maybe the other party is making a fool of himself?"

"This explanation is too far-fetched." Pei Shaoqing waved his hand and said, "I wonder if Censor Liu has heard of such a saying, boldly assume and be careful to verify it?"

"Bold assumptions, be careful to verify?" Liu Sili shook her head and said, "I haven't heard of it."

"What this is true," Di Renjie agreed deeply, "If you investigate a case, you should make bold assumptions and be careful to verify."

Pei Shaoqing said again: "So now, we might as well make the boldest assumption about this case, assuming that there are other people behind the scenes, Li Daoen, Pei Qi, Wang Desheng, and Heifu are just chess pieces in his hands, used to blame General Pei Xingjian for General Pei. Will this make sense?"

Liu Sili and Wei Chengqing were shocked when they heard this.

But Di Renjie's face showed a deep thought.

"Then the question is." Pei Shaoqing said again, "What is the intention of this person behind the scenes to blame General Pei?"

"Is it to force General Pei to rebel?" Wei Chengqing said, "It caused the Tang Dynasty to fall into a military disaster? In this case, the mastermind behind the scenes should be the remnants of the Eastern Turks."

"It's still wrong." Pei Shaoqing said, "The remnants of the Eastern Turks may have the intention to force General Pei to rebel, but they have no motive to kill Princess Taiping! What's the benefit of killing the princess?"

"Can it be the conspiracy of the Tubo people?" Liu Sili said, "The blame for General Pei is to cause trouble to the Tang Dynasty, and the killing of the princess is to vent his anger, because the two saints refuse to let Princess Taiping marry."

"The Tubo people may not be able to do this." Di Renjie shook his head and said, "Can Li Daoen obey orders."

"And if the Tubo people were really Tubo people, they would not have killed the princess. Wouldn't it be better to take the princess to the Tubo Zanpu crossbow?"

The straight room fell into silence.

At this time, Pei Shaoqing suddenly said, "What if it is the Emperor?"

"Ah?" Liu Sili and Wei Chengqing looked up suddenly, showing a look of shock.

Qingxuan also cast shocked eyes at Pei Shaoqing. Is this guy crazy?

Di Renjie's face collapsed instantly and he said angrily: "Pei Sicheng, please be careful!"

"It's just a hypothesis." Pei Shaoqing said with a smile, "Why are Di Si just angry?"

"It's not possible to assume it." Di Renjie said in a deep voice, "The son does not tell the faults of his father, and the ministers do not show the evils of the emperor. The right and wrongs of the emperor are not something that our ministers can argue without any recklessly!"

"What's more, the Emperor has always regarded the princess as the pearl in his hand,"

"So it's impossible to harm the princess anyway."

"As for saying that it is a big deal to blame General Pei and the Tang Dynasty, this is even more nonsense."

"Everyone may cause trouble to the Tang Dynasty, but the Emperor cannot. We need to know that the Tang Dynasty is the Li family!"

"Is that true?" Pei Shaoqing asked in a quiet tone, "Does Di Si really think so?"

Wei Chengqing and Liu Sili couldn't help but exchanged glances, and then they both saw a stern look in each other's eyes.

The mastermind behind the scenes is the Emperor, which they have never thought about and they never dared to think about it. However, when Pei Shaoqing said this, the more they thought about it, the more they felt like they were.

Since Shangguan Yi plotted against the rebellion case, the Emperor has become a puppet, which is well known to everyone.

Nowadays, the power of the court has long been in the hands of the queen. It is just some irrelevant matters that the queen will choose to obey the emperor's will. However, once there is a major event such as appointment and removal of officials, the emperor has no way to deal with it.

So the Emperor has a motive, and he definitely has a motive to provoke a fight between the Queen and Pei.

Because old aristocratic families such as Pei, Xue, Wei, and Yang are all hard-core supporters of the queen.

It was the old aristocratic clans who formed an alliance with the queen of heaven that defeated the upstarts represented by the Changsun clan and regained the power of the Tang Dynasty.
