Chapter 274: Conclusive Evidence for Destroying the Palace
Soon, Pei Zisu led his troops straight into the palace.

First they surrounded the yard, then tied up all the people in the back house and made them stay in the front hall. After the soldiers brought people in one by one, they found that there was no trace of Prince Chun and Song Shiye.

His eyes swept over Jiang Shijin. She was struggling and wanted to call him brother-in-law, but she was scared by Pei Zisu to the point that she almost peed her skirt. She was the Crown Prince's Consort, and she never thought that one day she would become a prisoner!

Before I could continue my dream, I was woken up by a bucket of cold water.

The others didn't know Pei Zisu's methods, and were still cursing at him when they were caught. Pei Zisu didn't bother to say anything more to them. He raised his sword and slashed at Song Shiyun, the only man inside. A bloody hole appeared on his body, and everyone was so scared that they shut their mouths.

"If I hear you scream again, he'll be your fate!"

Concubine Xun felt sorry for her son, but she didn't dare to act arrogantly at this moment, not to mention the trembling Jiang Shijin and Concubine Zhao, who wished they could bury their heads in the ground so that Pei Zisu wouldn't notice them.

As soon as the sword was sheathed, Prince Chun was searched out of the study and brought in as well.

When he saw Pei Zisu, his face was full of anger and confusion. As a prince, he was at least a member of the royal family. It was a joke that his reputation was ruined by a mere general, so he opened his mouth and scolded him.

"Pei Zisu, I know you are a great hero who suppressed the rebellion of Southern Tang, but now you have refused the credit and abandoned your official position. You, a commoner, actually dared to lead troops to surround my palace. Do you want to be executed along with your entire clan? How dare you be so bold!"

When Prince Chun mentioned the extermination of nine clans, Jiang Shijin trembled.

She is one of the wife's family, so don't cause trouble for her.

Who knew that when Pei Zisu heard this, he sneered, then swept his eyes more sharply over Prince Chun, and said coldly.

"I advise Your Highness to think carefully about what shameful things you have done to anger His Majesty and the Princess so much! If I remember correctly, the prince of your house has not appeared for quite some time!"

When his son's situation was suddenly mentioned like this, Prince Chun showed some discomfort on his face.

He roughly knew what his son was doing, and since Pei Zisu brought troops with him, he knew that they must be borrowed from the princess's mansion!
The matter between the princess and the eldest grandson of the emperor is causing a lot of controversy in the court. Are they now planning to take action against the royal palace?
He looked in the direction of the princess's mansion, with a look of indifference as if he had made a mistake.

"She is quite a powerful person. From the time the crown prince was deposed until now, she has never shown up. Instead, she has attracted many people to give her advice. You, Pei Zisu, are one of her lackeys, right?"

Then he said something sarcastically.

"The princess hasn't even taken the throne yet, and she's so anxious to get rid of her uncle now? Isn't she afraid that the resistance from her relatives will become more serious, and the power of the royal family will be weakened?"

You know, Da Sui is not just the emperor's lineage.

The King of Han is also eyeing them covetously. At this moment, he even thinks that since they will die anyway, it is better for the King of Han to take the throne than Qinghuan. Does a mere woman really want to be the master of Dasui?

absurd!

Pei Zisu saw the source of the disdain and ridicule in his eyes.

"You don't have to put such a big accusation on the princess. Today I am here to arrest Song Shiye. After investigation, it was found that he was closely related to the sudden death of the Crown Princess. So this time I am here to arrest him and bring him to justice. Secondly, I am here to ask you, Your Highness, have you sent anyone to arrest my children and mother?" "How can I have the time to arrest your children and mother?"

However, Prince Chun also understood what was going on. No wonder they suddenly surrounded Prince Chun’s mansion. It turned out that his old nest had been destroyed!
So he burst into laughter, but his laughter made other people in the front hall a little scared.

After all, Pei Zisu's face became more and more ugly. If this man really started to attack, none of them would be alive!

"I thought your actions today were a joke! I thought you were very capable, but I didn't expect you to end up like this! Now I want to see who you are. You are so powerful that you even dared to capture Pei Zisu's children and mother. It seems that there are still many people in Xijing City that I haven't discovered."

Hearing this, some strange thoughts flashed through Pei Zisu's mind.

He always felt that there were some things or some people that he had overlooked, otherwise how could he have gotten into such big trouble.

Prince Chun, when a man is about to die, his words are good.

Therefore, Pei Zisu temporarily believed that he did not know about the Ning'an Garden incident, but since he was already here, he naturally had to have a legitimate reason, so he opened his mouth and spoke.

"Since Song Shi has also escaped, you will have to take the blame for his crime. Take all of them to jail. Arrest those who should be arrested and beat those who should be beaten. Make sure they all tell the truth."

"Yes."

"This is outrageous! You are so bold as to torture me to extract a confession! Aren't you afraid of being impeached by the clansmen?"

"Impeach? After today, there will be one more prince and crown prince with ulterior motives in the court, and I am only following the orders of His Majesty and the Princess to clean up their mess. Who can impeach me?"

Upon hearing this, Prince Chun felt disappointed.

He roughly knew why Pei Zisu did this.

Song Shi must be the person he suspected the most. If that was the case, he would capture himself and everyone in the yard as bargaining chips!

He couldn't care about anything else at the moment except the baby in the Crown Princess's belly. That was his unborn grandson. He became anxious when he thought of this and said to Pei Zisu.

"If you want to arrest someone, just arrest me. The women in the yard are all innocent. Why do you want to arrest them? Men should settle their grudges among men."

"I do have such an idea, but the person behind the scenes won't give me such an opportunity. Since you attacked my child, don't blame me for attacking his child too. Catch him!"

Pei Zisu knew that Jiang Shijin's pregnancy was fake, so he was not afraid at all.

This gave the child a chance to lose his life "legitimately", so Jiang Shijin and others were still shouting as they were dragged away one by one, while Huilan, who stayed with her, was safe because of the princess's handwritten order.

"General, the whereabouts of the Crown Prince Song have been erratic for several months. We have tried our best to investigate but have not found anything. However, we did find a lot of evidence at home that can be used to convict Prince Chun's mansion, so this time we must have a legitimate reason!"

Pei Zisu nodded. These were the princess's people and he had no doubt about their ability to do things.
