I'm already a concubine, who wants to fight with you?

Chapter 144 Unkind and unjust
Pei Yuan was in such mixed emotions that he could hardly think.

On one side is the concubine, on the other side is face.

Miao begged again and again, and had Chuihua arrested and interrogated, but Pei Yuan remained silent.

Mother Tang also looked at Xiao Shirong with pleading eyes, hoping that Xiao Shirong could protect Chuihua.

The room was in a mess, so Xie Fei took charge and brought Sun Dalang in first, asking him if he had seen the hanging flowers when he was drunk.

Sun Dalang was beaten to a pulp, his skin was torn and he was dying. His body was covered in feces and urine and he looked in a miserable state.

Under the questioning of the old women, he said in an unclear manner that he did see it.

After drinking, he saw Chuihua leading the way in front, so he followed.

Xiao Shirong immediately said that this was what Sun Dalang said under guidance.

A person who has been drunk and beaten to the point of being on his last breath will naturally believe whatever others say without any ability to distinguish.

Seeing that Sun Dalang was useless, Pei Yuan thought for a long time and said, "Call the maid over. I want to interrogate her myself!"

When Mother Tang saw this, her legs trembled and she knelt on the ground.

She pleaded in fear, "Master, my daughter has been spoiled since she was a child, how can she bear the punishment? Please have mercy on me, please have mercy on me!"

Miao cursed, "She is a bitch who is spoiled. Am I just thick-skinned? If you dared to let your daughter seduce Sun Dalang to frame me, you should have expected this moment to come!"

Xiao Shirong's eyes were cold, and she said sternly, "This is nothing but Xie's flawed speculation, without any evidence. Chuihua is my maid, if she is tortured as you said, how can I, the wife of the emperor, save my dignity?"

Pei Yuan sneered: "I have lost face, and you, a bitch, still want to save face?"

Xiao Shirong glared at him angrily, but Pei Yuan remained unmoved and ordered someone to forcibly bring Chuihua over.

Chuihua had been paying close attention to what was happening in Chaohui Pavilion. When he heard that he was going to be tortured, he started trembling all over and was terrified.

She knelt in the middle of the room, trembling, her lips shaking for a long time, and she stammered that she knew nothing.

Miao was extremely anxious, so she stepped forward and slapped Chuihua several times, making Chuihua's head buzz.

She was still not venting her anger, and beat Chuihua fiercely, shouting hysterically: "Who ordered you to frame me? Tell me, tell me!"

Chuihua dodged and cried at the same time. Mother Tang was heartbroken. She rushed forward to stand in front of Chuihua, but was also beaten several times by Miao.

The whole room was filled with crying. Pei Yuan could not bear it any longer, so he ordered people to drag the mother and daughter away, beat them severely, and pry open their mouths.

Xiao Shirong was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up.

"enough!"

The room fell silent for a moment.

Xiao Shirong could no longer bear it and roared at Pei Yuan, "You are making a big fuss about punishing my personal maid. Are you going to tell the entire Pei Mansion that I, the eldest lady, can punish anyone at will?"

Pei Yuan had already lost his patience. He stood up and approached Xiao Shirong step by step.

He was tall and extremely angry, forcing Xiao Shirong to retreat step by step.

"It's better not to let me know that you are the one behind this. Otherwise, you will know that it can't be solved by just the word 'punishment'!"

Xiao Shirong refused to be outdone, and sneered at him, "Then let's fight to the death and see who falls first!"

Suddenly, a group of people hurried in from outside.

Under the dim candlelight, Su Lu said respectfully, "Madam, please ask the master and mistress to come to Huiming Hall immediately."

The fight between the two masters came to an abrupt end.

No one knows what the old lady said to the two of them.

Afterwards, in the name of the old lady, the government was informed that Sun Dalang had molested the maid after drinking and had behaved inappropriately, and then he was punished.

Afterwards, he sent people to appease Miao and punished Tang Mama and her daughter, driving them out of the house.

It seemed that the storm was quickly settled.

But the one who was most affected was Miao. From that day on, Miao never saw Pei Yuan again.

Even when she asked someone to tell Pei Yuan that her baby was in trouble, Pei Yuan ignored her and left her to fend for herself in the backyard.

Crying, making a fuss, and even hanging oneself to death would not win back Pei Yuan's care.

The favored concubine who was once very favored and had the opportunity to surpass her mistress, suddenly fell from the clouds and was treated very differently from before.

By then, Xie Fei had already returned to the farm, so he was not surprised to hear the news that Fu Yu had found out.

Fu Yu was very puzzled and asked, "Master, you should know that it was the mistress who was causing trouble. Miao Xiaoniang did not steal anyone, but why is she still so cold to others, as if she has no affection at all?"

Xie Fei was playing chess with Yuan San and was about to lose. He said quickly, "No, no, my hands are shaking and I made a wrong move!"

Yuan San raised his eyebrows, held down her hand that was about to pick up the flag, and said, "No regrets after making this move."

Xie Fei was discouraged and simply pushed the chessboard away, "I don't want to play anymore!"

Fu Yu said sadly, "Girl, did you listen to me?"

Xie Fei stood up and stretched, then said leisurely: "What's so strange about this? Do you think our Lord is a gentleman who values ​​friendship and loyalty?"

It doesn’t matter whether Miao is really innocent or not.

What’s important is that she slept in the same bed with Sun Dalang, the lowest-ranking servant.

Seen, touched, and probably more.

Would a mean and ungrateful man like Pei Yuan feel sorry for Miao?

will not.

He will only feel that his things have been defiled by others, become dirty, and there is no need to hold them in his hands anymore.

Therefore, Xiao Shirong's goal had been achieved from the moment Sun Dalang came into contact with Miao.

As for framing Xie Fei, it was just a matter of convenience.

If Xie Fei fell for it, it would be like killing two birds with one stone. Even if he failed, it would not change the fact that Miao was abandoned by Pei Yuan.

Hearing what Xie Fei said, Fu Yu's face turned extremely ugly.

"My Lord is really..."

Terribly cold and indifferent.

Yuan San slowly packed up the chessboard and said, "Now, the young lady and the mistress are completely irreconcilable."

Xie Fei said: "From the moment I entered the mansion, it was impossible for us to coexist peacefully."

As for Pei Yuan and Xiao Shirong, there is no need to mention them.

If those two could shake hands and make peace, she would feel like the world was going to end.

Fu Yu asked, "What will happen to Miss Miao in the future?"

If she really gave birth to the eldest son, the master should still give her a decent gift, right?
Xie Fei remained silent.

In Pei's mansion, only a few days had passed, and Miao's situation was already much worse than before.

Pei Yuan ordered her to be confined to her house, and the old lady seemed to doubt the authenticity of the baby in her belly.

She was locked up in her own courtyard, with only three ordinary meals a day, and the food was not even half as good as before.

The number of servants was reduced by half, leaving only a fat, big-eared, evil servant and a deaf, weak, and disabled old woman.

At first, she was very arrogant and told the evil servants to serve her well, otherwise she would not let her go easily.

The abominable servant was not a good person at all. He could even turn around and give Miao a good "serve".

Miao cried out to heaven and earth but no one answered her. After a few days of crying and no one paid any attention, she finally learned her lesson.
