After rebirth, I kidnapped the future powerful official

Chapter 260 Ten-day deadline

He Jiabei opened the lid of the food box according to his words, and as soon as he brought out a plate of eight-treasure tofu, He Zixu exclaimed, staring at the dish and saying, "Hey, that's strange, why is there bird food on this dish?" what?"

He Jiabei took a closer look when he heard the words, and sure enough, the tofu was covered with a thin layer of golden corn kernels.

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought of something, picked up the plate of tofu excitedly, ran to the door of the cell, and said with a smile: "This bird food is for me!"

As he said that, he squatted down and pushed the top layer of corn kernels to the ground. After a while, a white carrier pigeon flew in from the window, wanting to eat the corn kernels on the ground.

With quick eyes and quick hands, He Jiabei caught the pigeon.

Seeing this, He Jiaxi behind him couldn't help being startled, and said with a smile: "The princess is really amazing, she even helped you attract the pigeons that deliver the letter!"

"Of course!" He Jiabei happily tied the letter he wrote to the pigeon's paw, and then let it fly.

He Zixu was also very surprised and said: "I really didn't expect that the Crown Princess would be so scheming. I don't know if our He family still has this luck."

He Jiabei walked over and said: "Father, this is not luck at all, it is hard work. If I don't find a way to write a good letter first, it will be useless if I have bird food and carrier pigeons!"

He Zixu nodded in agreement, and said, "That's right, people must have faith, work hard, and never give up for a moment."

He patted He Jiabei's shoulder lightly, and said, "Jiabei, you seem to be different from before."

He Jiabei smiled, and said: "I don't know, maybe because of danger, my thoughts will be different."

He Zixu heard the words, and said with a face of relief: "I chose you to be the son, I really chose the right one!"

He Jiabei waved his hands modestly, pulled He Zixu to sit down, and said, "Father, don't talk so much, let's eat!"

When going to court, the emperor had just sat on the dragon chair when the servant presented a thick stack of memorials.

The emperor looked at the civil and military officials of His Highness, and said with some dissatisfaction: "There are really so many memorials? Could it be because of the He family's affairs again?"

After he finished speaking, he stood up angrily.

Prince Jin cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, it seems that this matter cannot be avoided."

The emperor paced back and forth, and said: "Then tell me, what do you think about the He family's copying and beheading?"

"Put the He family to death!"

The emperor sat on the dragon chair, sighed, and said, "The opinions of the ministers are actually the same."

Prince Jin said: "Your Majesty, in fact, the people in the capital also think that the He family is guilty. Even if the He family has old achievements, it cannot be tolerated."

"Really? Unexpected!" Hearing this, the emperor leaned forward slightly with his upper body.

Prince Jin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the words of defending the people are stronger than Fangchuan. Public opinion should not be underestimated. If it is ignored, when the people's hearts are dissatisfied, it may breed indignation. Disasters will follow!"

"Is it really that serious?" the emperor said in astonishment after hearing this.

"Yes, your Majesty, please check clearly." Prince Jin said.

The emperor pondered for a moment, then suddenly stood up and said: "Okay, if there is no evidence to prove the innocence of the He family within ten days, then the whole family of the He family will be beheaded!"

"The emperor is wise!" Prince Jin was so happy that he was about to laugh out loud.

In the Qianji Pavilion at this time, Shangguan Ying'er frowned and said: "So far, no new clues have been found."

Duan Ce said helplessly: "My father said that he has already written the memorial, but the emperor is indifferent."

Cai Jinghong pinched his chin and said, "I searched inside and outside the Martial Arts Hall, but I didn't find anything abnormal."

Shangguan Ying'er crossed her waist and said, "What kind of enemies does the He family have?"

Cai Jinghong said: "General He has fought for many years and killed countless enemies. I believe there are countless enemies."

Duan Ce was startled when he heard the words, and said, "Then if you say that, wouldn't it be more difficult to find out the truth than to go to the sky?"

Shangguan Yinger hurriedly asked: "Miss Chu, do you have any clues?"

Just as he was talking, Duan Ce saw Chu Yingying walking in with Liao Shiyin.

"It really means that Cao Cao Cao Cao is here."

Everyone looked at Chu Yingying one after another, and Chu Yingying said anxiously, "The clues to the craftsmen in Fuzhou have been cut off."

Cai Jinghong let out a breath, comforted everyone who was downcast, and said, "It's okay, as long as we don't give up, things will definitely turn around!"

However, Chu Yingying said with a full face of sorrow: "The imperial court has decided that after ten days, the whole family of the He family will be executed."

"What? It's only been ten days?" Shangguan Ying'er and Cai Jinghong were shocked when they heard this.

Shangguan Ying'er was very disappointed and said: "It seems that the general situation is over, no matter what you do, it will be useless."

Cai Jinghong had a sad expression on his face, and said: "The He family is a loyal generation, we can't let them die wronged!"

Duan Ce took two steps forward and said to Chu Yingying, "Miss Chu, you have a lot of background, should you think of a way?"

Chu Yingying sighed, and said, "Your father is King Jin and there is nothing you can do, so what can I do?"

Duan Ce couldn't help scratching his head when he heard the words, and said, "If you say that, then wouldn't He Jiabei be dead?"

Everyone was silent, not knowing what to do.

In the Qunfang Pavilion, Pei Daozhu received the letter from He Jiabei, and began to read silently: "Daozhu, you wait for me, as evidenced by heaven and earth, I, He Jiabei, swear that I will come out and marry you!"

After reading the letter, Pei Daozhu was so moved that he burst into tears, wiped away his tears, and began to write a reply letter.

Just after writing a few words, Aunt Xu snatched them away, held them in her hand and said, "What are you writing? Brother He, I really miss it."

Pei Daozhu stood up and said, "Ma'am, don't look at it."

Aunt Xu was a little puzzled and said: "I said, Daozhu, others are dying, so why write a letter?"

"What, what did you say?" Pei Daozhu turned pale with shock when he heard this.

Aunt Xu told her: "Let me tell you, there is news from the palace that the He family will be beheaded by the whole family in ten days! Look at you, how many times has Auntie told you, don't put your mind on That He Jiabei's body is now a waste of your hard work, your tears, and your pen and ink."

Pei Daozhu wept bitterly, his heart clenched with grief.

Seeing this, Aunt Xu hurriedly took out a silk handkerchief to wipe her tears, and persuaded: "My aunt, don't cry anymore! You see, it will be wasted again. Your tears should be reserved for those big merchants." Senior officials, this is all money! Don’t cry, don’t cry.”

At this time, in the big prison, the jailer brought Mrs. He into the cell of He Zixu and his father and son.

"Master." Mrs. He called out.

When He Zixu saw her, he couldn't help being surprised: "He Hua? Why are you here?"

"Mother!" He Jiabei murmured.

The jailer said to them: "The Crown Princess ordered you to reunite with your family. There is still some food here. After eating, go back to your cell. Don't ask for trouble."

"Thank you, thank you." Mrs. He San bowed to him repeatedly.
