There is a powerful minister Bai Yueguang in my heart

Chapter 224 A Gentle Greeting from Madam

for a long time,

There was no reply from Xuanyuan Ying. For a while, the entire imperial study room fell into a silence that could be heard falling into a needle, and it was terribly oppressive and dull.
Pei Xinrou knelt on the ground, lowered her head and didn't dare to raise her head to see what Xuanyuan Ying's expression was like now. What she just said,

She has exhausted all the courage in her life, she is not even half sure that the emperor will agree, she just looks at her parents at home,

She couldn't bear it, as long as she thought that her elder brother did such a thing because he was angry with her, her father and mother would quarrel, and her father even aged ten years in a few breaths,

She will be surrounded by overwhelming guilt and self-blame, and her heart will be tortured all the time, making her restless.

"You go back first."

Finally, a cold voice without a trace of warmth resounded from above his head,
Pei Xinrou raised her head in shock, and looked at Xuanyuan Ying with red eyes. After the shock, there was even deeper panic, and the red eyes shook her head again and again.

"Your majesty, everything started because of the courtiers. The emperor can do whatever he wants with the courtiers, even if he puts the courtiers to death.

The courtiers have absolutely no complaints, I only hope that the emperor can let the Pei family live, and the elder brother of the courtiers can let the ministers live, the emperor..."

Pei Xinrou couldn't help herself, she choked up sobbing, Jiao Hao's face was covered with tears and tear stains, her voice trembled because of the trembling.

"This matter is just your speculation and has not been confirmed. You don't need to do this."

Xuanyuan Ying's face was as handsome as a god's, and his slender fingers were rhythmically clasped on the desk. His thin lips were light and emotionless.

"But……"

This way no waves, no joy or anger, made Pei Xinrou feel at a loss, cramped and terrified, she couldn't stop crying,

I wanted to say something more to intercede, but Xuanyuan Ying glanced at her with her phoenix eyes, she was very cold, and the words of intercession couldn't come out of her mouth.
"It's only been half a day since Situ Chengyun led the army. Before he reached the frontier and found out the ins and outs of the matter, no matter how much he said or guessed, it would be futile."

"If this matter was really done by your elder brother, you really want to plead for the Pei family. You shouldn't have come to the palace to beg for orphans. The missing one is General Qin."

Words and sentences came out of his throat, the more he said, the expression in Xuanyuan Ying's eyes and face became colder, as piercing as the howling wind in the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month,
"As for your elder brother, if it is really because of selfishness and narrow-mindedness to wait for an opportunity to retaliate, causing a thousand soldiers of my dynasty to die in vain, death is not a pity."

"Have you ever thought about how many soldiers and civilians will be killed or injured if we are defeated in this battle between Dachao and Dayan, and the frontiers are lost and the cities are captured?

These tens of thousands of lives, as well as the face and territory of my great dynasty, are not worth the lives of your Pei family, let alone you alone. "

The meaning of these words couldn't be clearer. If Pei Shangxuan was really responsible for the spies in the army, it would be useless for anyone to intercede.
These words, like a heavy stone, hit Pei Xinrou's heart hard, causing Pei Xinrou's heart to bleed, and she couldn't catch her breath no matter what.

All that is left is the sadness that wells up from her heart one after another, yes, in her heart,

Parents are innocent, Pei's family is innocent, elder brother did such stupid things only because of himself,
She thought, since it was because of her, it would be fine for her to die with her life, but she never thought about it,

How innocent are Qin Zhan and a thousand soldiers of the Great Dynasty?
How innocent are the soldiers of the Great Dynasty who died on the battlefield, each of them has their own parents, wives and children behind them, how innocent are those people,

The frontier was lost, the city was seized, and the homes of the common people who lived there for generations in the city, how innocent are the thousands of lives,
Even if the emperor ordered the nine families of the Pei family to be punished, compared to these, the nine families of the Pei family are nothing.

She only thought that she couldn't harm the Pei family because of herself, but she never thought about it. After all, she was so selfish...

Xuanyuan Ying's eyes fell on Pei Xinrou's tear-stained face, his fingers on the golden nanmu case stopped, feeling cold,
"Go back, until the battle report comes from the frontier, I will never touch Pei's house."

This is his greatest tolerance and tolerance for the Pei family, and it will only stop there. The most intolerable thing for the emperor is the traitor.

...

When Pei Xinrou came out of the imperial study room again, the tears on Jiao Hao's face had been wiped away, her eyes were lifeless, she was like a puppet on a string,
He even forgot that Qin Yao was still standing there under the shade of a tree not far away, and walked past without hearing Deshan's concerned question.
Dongmei, who followed Pei Xinrou into the palace, has been silently keeping her own place, standing at the bottom of the steps waiting for her master,
Seeing Pei Xinrou coming out of the imperial study with such a state, her heart ached, she went up to support Pei Xinrou in two or three steps, and exclaimed,

"Miss! Miss, you, what's wrong with you."

With her body backed up, Pei Xinrou finally regained her mind. She raised her head and glanced at Dongmei, her crying voice was still a little hoarse.

"Let's go back."

"Okay, okay, I will take you back here, I will take you back here."

Dongmei's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and she supported Pei Xinrou more carefully. How could her young lady be so miserable?
Even though she didn't know what happened in the imperial study room, even though she wanted to rush in to question for the sake of Miss, but she couldn't,

She didn't dare either, she was just a small servant girl next to the young lady, sitting in the imperial study was the emperor who held the power of life and death,
In front of the emperor, she was as insignificant as an ant on the ground, as long as she lifted her foot a little, she could be crushed to pieces.

"Woman, what did your dog emperor say to the beauty? Why did the beauty go in fine, but come out like this."

Under the big tree, Tao Zi opened her eyes wide and looked at Pei Xinrou's slender figure leaving, Tao Xin was so distressed,
Qin Yao also frowned in confusion. Although she was a little distance away, she could still see that Pei Xinrou's footsteps were a little frivolous.

Looking at it like that, it seems that he has cried, and he can't help frowning even deeper. Xuanyuan Ying won't be so bad, because he is afraid that he will misunderstand.
Just say something, let Pei Xinrou be sad like that, as the saying goes, a good word warms three winters, and a bad word hurts June cold,

If it's really what she thinks, then she should talk about Xuanyuan's victory, how can a dignified man of eight feet be an emperor, how can he be so worthless.

"What are you thinking about?"

The gentle and tender voice fell on the ears, the delicate red lips were already covered by the magnificent warm thin lips,
Lian pecked lightly, and before the future could go deep, the ears were already pinched,

In the eyes is Qin Yao's gentle smiling face, but there are only two people who can hear Qin Yao's vicious voice,

"Tell me, did you speak ill of a weak girl?"

Xuanyuan Ying: "...?"
