"Why did he faint?" Pei Shao let go of his hand, and asked Bai Zimu while rubbing his fingers.

"I let him see that these people were beheaded." Bai Zimu told the truth, and he didn't think it was something that should be concealed. He is a demon, not a human, so just as people don't necessarily fear seeing animals beheaded, he saw I don't feel terrible when people lose their heads.

Hearing what Bai Zimu said, Pei Shao knew in his heart that the eunuch might not have been frightened by the beheading of a guard. After all, a person who can sit in such a position in the palace has seen countless living and dead people. After a few people died, they were stunned.He was very likely to be frightened by Bai Zimu, maybe he thought Bai Zimu was a ghost.

But it was inconvenient for Pei Shao to tell Bai Zimu about these inside facts at this time. He walked to the table, touched the teapot, then picked up the teapot and poured cold water on the eunuch's face, and the eunuch woke up dizzy.

"Tell me, where is the queen mother?" Pei Shao asked this time, and the eunuch tremblingly looked at Bai Zimu behind him who was also looking at him, and finally spoke.

He's not afraid of the little emperor, he's afraid of the young man behind him who doesn't know whether it's a man or a ghost, if he can kill these guards in the air, if he sees King Qin, will King Qin die too?

"The Empress Dowager is in the Hanguang Palace." The eunuch said, the guards here did not know the whereabouts of the Empress Dowager, and the eunuch's rank in the palace was not low. There are also more.

Pei Shao chose to extract a confession from him because of this.

He listened carefully to the other party's account of the mother's whereabouts, and guessed that he knew more, so he continued to ask.

"What else do you know? Tell me as much as you can. If I am satisfied, I will spare your life. Otherwise, you will be like them." Pei Shao threatened. After seeing the eunuch's sight, he looked back.Bai Zimu was originally extremely handsome and good-looking, even if he had no expression, he was exceptionally agile, but when placed in front of this eunuch, he was indistinguishable from an evil ghost.

"The adults who... participated in the coup were imprisoned in Xiyuan..." The eunuch tremblingly revealed everything he knew. Pei Shao listened carefully and roughly understood what happened after he left.

In this coup, almost all the officials loyal to him were mobilized, so they happened to be wiped out.The deputy commander of the imperial army was loyal to him, and planned to kill the commander and lead the imperial army to cooperate with the mutiny, but he was discovered early and imprisoned with other officials.

After hearing what the eunuch told him, Pei Shao had a solid foundation in his mind. The King of Qin could not gain a firm foothold in the capital, so he could only put the ministers under house arrest for the time being, and he did not dare to do anything to them, so there were not many casualties.

"If I keep my word, I will spare your life." Naturally, Pei Shao could only despise such a villain in his heart, but as an emperor, he must not break his word, otherwise the ministers in the court would be terrified and thus alienated from morality.

The King of Qin has won over many courtiers, including some officials in important positions. Pei Shao wants to regain power, but he can't take them down. Instead, he has to win them over, forgive them, and let them use for him.

Of course, Pei Shao will deal with them sooner or later, but he cannot take revenge in a short period of time. He has to show the demeanor of a generous monarch in order to convince his courtiers.

After receiving the information, Pei Shao went out and asked a eunuch from the Empress Dowager's palace to lead a horse. Xiyuan is not far from the Empress Dowager's bedroom. Although he can let Bai Zimu take him there, he also wants to see the current situation in the palace, so he can Take Bai Zimu there on horseback.

Bai Zimu looked at the horse brought by the eunuch. This horse was a descendant of Dawan Liangju, tall, white, beautiful and noble.Bai Zimu had never seen a horse before, but seeing him now, he was very curious and wanted to know what it was like to ride a horse, so he looked at Pei Shao expectantly.

Pei Shao also lived up to his expectations, he got on the horse first, and then stretched out his hand to pull Bai Zimu.

"Get on the stirrup, I'll pull you up." Pei Shao held Bai Zimu's hand and instructed him how to get up.Bai Zimu stretched out his foot, tested it a bit, then stepped on the stirrup, and with Pei Shao's strength, he rode onto the horse.

Pei Shao didn't move until Bai Zimu sat still. At first, Bai Zimu was a little scared, and put his arms around Pei Shao's waist.Pei Shao is still young, still a young man, his shoulders are not wide enough, and his waist is still relatively thin, because he has been thin and strong through years of exercise, and he feels good when hugged.

Bai Zimu hugged Pei Shao's waist, and buried his head on his back.Pei Shao rode forward on the horse, and felt Bai Zimu hugging him behind him, so he couldn't help speeding up.

But his bad intentions did not achieve the desired result. As the horse gradually ran away and the scenery around him changed again and again, Bai Zimu became bolder. He raised his head first, then let go of his hands, using only his legs Clamping on the horseback, looking at the scenery in the Forbidden City.

It was early autumn at this time, the sky was high and the clouds were light, the breeze was blowing, the leaves in the imperial city were slightly yellow, and the ancient ginkgo trees were rustling by the wind.In the autumn wind, the tall palaces of various colors in the imperial city look even more solemn and solemn. They are not necessarily gorgeous, but they have a thrilling magnificence.

Bai Zimu had a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery, and at the same time, he did not forget to control the people he met. Everyone, as long as they saw Pei Shao, they would freeze in place, unable to move, and could only watch helplessly as Pei Shao flew like lightning. Run to Hanguang Hall.

The guards outside the Hanguang Hall were tightly guarded. When the guards heard the sound of horseshoes from afar, they became alert. They took up their weapons and prepared to meet the enemy. Some people were going to report to the King of Qin, but they were all arrested before they saw anyone coming. stay in place.

They watched a man and a horse appear in the field of vision, and when Pei Shao got off the horse, they saw that there was a young man behind Pei Shao, with a handsome appearance, but his appearance made people feel shuddering.

"Come down." Pei Shao stretched out his hand to catch Bai Zimu, this time Bai Zimu didn't reach out, but jumped off the horse directly.The two passed through the net woven by the guards together. No matter who they were, they couldn't move before they had time to speak, even the person they were looking for this time was no exception.

"..." The Queen Mother didn't say a word, she was also fixed in place and couldn't move, her eyes could see, so seeing Pei Shao's embarrassed face, she turned to talk to Bai Zimu.

"Zimu, this is my mother." Pei Shao explained to Bai Zimu in a low voice in embarrassment. Bai Zimu listened to his words and stared at the queen mother. The appearance of the queen mother was [-]% similar to that of Pei Shao. He was fixed in place for a while, only looking at them.

Bai Zimu untied the empress dowager and the surrounding maids. Just as the empress dowager opened her mouth to speak, a court lady strangled her neck with her arms from behind.

"Your Majesty, please hand over this person to the King of Qin, otherwise..." She tightened her arms, expressing what she hadn't said in action, her eyes fixed on Bai Zimu fiercely.She was sent by King Qin to guard the Queen Mother. Although she did not receive any news about Bai Zimu, when she saw Bai Zimu for the first time, she knew that something was unusual. Among the people present today, only Bai Zimu could threaten her. King Qin.

So she immediately held the queen mother hostage and threatened Pei Shao, but before she could think about the next step, she felt stiff all over, and watched her arms loosen and let the queen mother go.

Bai Zimu fixed the other maids in place as if nothing had happened. As soon as the queen mother let go of her breath, she immediately took two steps forward, grabbed Pei Shao's arm, and looked at his face.

"Does King Qin know that you have returned to the palace?" The queen mother finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her son was safe and sound, but she asked Pei Shao if she could be happy in the future.Of course she noticed that Bai Zimu was unusual, but it was not easy to ask about him at this time, why he was by Pei Shao's side.

"He knows we're going into the city, so he should be able to guess that we're going back to the palace." Pei Shao replied, "Mother, this is my savior, Bai Zimu, who brought me back to the palace."

Pei Shao gave a brief introduction to Bai Zimu, but did not describe his experiences in the past few days.The Queen Mother still had doubts in her heart, but Bai Zimu was a friend rather than an enemy, so she reluctantly smiled at him.

"I don't want to thank you for your kindness. After Pei Shao gets through this calamity, he will definitely repay you well."

Bai Zimu narrowed his eyes slightly, and used the common sense he had learned from Pei Shao to think about what repayment was. It seemed that there was nothing very attractive about it.

He could still be in a daze, but Pei Shao was already in a hurry to continue with his next plan, and he was going back to have dinner with Pei Xu, so his tone was a little hasty.

"The king of Qin locked up his courtiers in Xiyuan. Let's go and release them now. It's not too late. Although I have returned to the capital, the capital is still under the control of the king of Qin. Don't be careless." Pei Shao said to the queen mother, the queen mother Nodding, she has been trying to contact the courtiers all this time, and has sent people to see her natal family many times, but King Qin has sealed her tightly and never gave her any chance.

The three of them went to Xiyuan together, and one horse was naturally not enough.Pei Shao was still thinking, Bai Zimu doesn't know how to ride a horse, it doesn't seem appropriate whether he takes Bai Zimu or the queen mother takes Bai Zimu, but before he can figure out why, Bai Zimu has already ridden on the horse. The horse of the person who reported to the King of Qin.

Bai Zimu stroked the horse's head, bowed his head and whispered a few words to the horse, and the horse lowered its eyebrows and listened, and led Bai Zimu to run towards Xiyuan.

Of course Bai Zimu didn't know where Xiyuan was, but the horse grew up in the imperial city, and it understood Bai Zimu's words, so it took him to Xiyuan.

Pei Shao also got on his horse in a hurry, and pulled the queen mother up, and the mother and son also caught up, and after a while, they came to Xiyuan.

Originally, the king of Qin only put the courtiers who opposed him under house arrest and sent people to guard them, but these people joined forces with the little emperor for a coup, so the king of Qin wiped them all out and imprisoned them in a cell in Xiyuan.All the ministers were driven here, huddled together in disgrace.

Today, several adults are still moaning and sighing, and some are sitting in the corner with their eyes closed to rest their minds. Only Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is thirsty and calls the guards to bring water.

The guards here are also King Qin's confidants, not as strict as the jailers, so they went to fetch some water for these old men to drink.Minister of the Ministry of Rites lay at the door and waited eagerly for the guard to hand over the water. He took a few sips happily, and saw that the guard suddenly remained motionless.

He didn't know what was going on, but the most urgent thing was to quench his thirst. He saw that the guard was not far away from him, so he stretched his hand over the fence to get water, but he didn't expect that he suddenly jumped forward and walked along the door. Fell to the ground.

"The door is open?" The Minister of Rites is over fifty years old, and his old arms and legs are so flashy that he can't get up for a long time, but Doctor Yu Shi, who is waiting for a drink of water, sees the door open and rushes out immediately, with sharp eyesight and quick hands Helped the Minister of Rites up.

The grown-ups locked here are all good people. Seeing that the two people over there have gone out, no one stopped them. Those who were sitting stood up, and those who closed their eyes opened their eyes wide, supporting each other. Swarming out, going anywhere is better than staying in such a broken place.

Therefore, Pei Shao, who was standing outside the cell, saw a group of old men running out one after another. When he saw him and the queen mother, he immediately burst into tears of joy.
