stern wife

Chapter 215 Bullying
That's right, Old General Zhan's daughter is the current queen of Emperor Chixuan—Empress Zhan.

At that time, Zhu Lianxi had already ascended the throne and no longer needed the support of Queen Zhan, who was not his own mother, so he crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and directly used this to remove her as well.

Moreover, the relatives are powerful, which is by no means a good thing for Zhu Lianxi, who has already ascended the throne.

However, after Pei Xiaoran learned of this incident, he did not come forward to intercede or stop the Zhan family, nor did he blame Zhu Lianxi for his injustice and ruthlessness.

Because Zhu Lianxi told her that his mother was killed by Queen Zhan.

The reason why he willingly recognized Queen Zhan as his mother after his mother died, and obeyed Emperor Chixuan's arrangement to be raised by her side without any resistance, and even broke with his grandfather's family who suspected that Queen Zhan killed his daughter, is that In order to use the power of Queen Zhan's natal family to increase her bargaining chips for her smooth accession to the throne in the future.

And after ascending to the throne, this "mother queen" has no use value, and is still the murderer who killed her own mother queen. How could Zhu Lianxi let the other party become the empress dowager and continue to ride on her head to do her best?
So without hesitation, it was also removed.

This is the struggle for imperial power. In order to earn the throne, they will do anything.

Pei Xiaoran didn't feel sorry for the Zhan's family who had been ransacked and beheaded, because they allowed their subordinates to oppress the people, and they deserved to die!No pity for Empress Zhan who was crossed by Zhu Lianxi and demolished the bridge. Who told her to kill Zhu Lianxi's mother to win the throne?
What she cares about is those people who are bullied but can't resist, dare not resist!
It's a pity that she doesn't have any power in her hands now, and she may not be able to intervene in the affairs of Beijiang just by relying on her status as the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion.

Gritting his teeth fiercely, Pei Xiaoran suddenly looked at Baili Lieyuan and asked:
"Your Highness, do you still remember where you bought the buns and medicine, and how much money you spent?"

Baili Lieyuan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded:

"of course I remember."

"That's good." Pei Xiaoran asked Baili Lieyuan to put on the face scarf, raised his voice to call Xiaoer in, and then continued to say to Baili Lieyuan:
"Give him the silver and ask him to help send the silver to others. Since you have taken something from others, you will naturally have to give money."

Baili Lieyuan squeezed the small, deflated purse, hesitated and said:
"But……"

It's fine if it's normal, His Royal Highness Li Wang doesn't care about those few pennies at all.

But it's different now, they don't know when they will be able to meet up with their subordinates!Naturally, it can save a little bit.

Since there are benefits for free, why waste money?

"No but!"

Pei Xiaoran narrowed his round eyes halfway, pursed his pink lips, showing a bit of sternness, and said:
"I know we are short of money now, but it is not easy for others to do business. Why should we eat for free and take other people's money for free because we are short of money, and let others bear the loss to fill our vacancy?"

She sighed, reluctantly glanced at the oiled paper bag on the table that was emitting a tempting aroma, and said:
"It's okay if you don't want to spend money, but why don't you send the buns and medicine back."

"No! Medicine is absolutely not acceptable!"

His Royal Highness Li Wang, who had been taught a lesson by a little girl, was depressed, but when he heard this, he couldn't care less about depression, and immediately retorted:

"Are you crazy? Those medicines were bought for you. Your wound hasn't healed yet. If you don't use medicine, what if it gets worse?!"

After saying that, he didn't hesitate anymore, took out the money and counted it, stuffed the money that should be spent on the buns and medicine into Xiao Er's second hand, and told Xiao Er which bun shop and medicine shop he bought it from.

After a pause, he gritted his teeth and counted out five copper plates and handed them over, saying:
"This is your errand money."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Er pushed back the five cents.

Baili Lieyuan was taken aback for a moment, then raised her head to look at him in bewilderment, could it be too little?
Xiaoer looked at Pei Xiaoran gratefully, and said sincerely:

"I didn't expect this little girl to be so considerate of us little people. Thank you for those people! It's just... such a little girl can understand the truth, but some adults don't understand..."

The word 'adult' is a bit heavy, obviously a pun.

This little brother seems to know something...

Pei Xiaoran thought about it, and felt that it would be a bit strange for him, a 'child', to ask these questions, so he winked at Baili Lieyuan.

Baili Lieyuan was helpless, thinking that he, a rich prince, cared about Suzaku's state affairs, but he still asked:
"I don't know what you mean by that? But someone is oppressing the people?"

Xiao Er glanced at the shiny silver armor he was wearing, shrank his neck, and said with a dry smile:
"No, it's not interesting... The small one is just casually, casually, please don't take it to heart..."

As he said that, he wanted to slip with oil on the soles of his feet.

Pei Xiaoran opened his mouth in time and said:

"Wait a minute, little brother! I'm afraid I've misunderstood, this... This brother just came from the countryside. He joined the army not long ago. I don't know what's going on here. Why don't you tell us?"

"So it's a recruit..."

Xiaoer breathed a sigh of relief, then sighed again:
"It's a long story... However, if this military master has a sensible sister like you, he probably won't become as annoying as those bastards in the future."

Baili Lieyuan took a look at this cheap 'sister', and Pei Xiaoran noticed his gaze, and also took a look at this cheap 'brother'.

The two turned their heads at the same time, disgusted!
Xiao Er felt that the two brothers and sisters had a tacit understanding and were quite interesting, so he relaxed his vigilance even more, and said frankly:
"To tell you the truth, our place, including the big cities and small towns nearby, is just like the homes of those whores. They come and go when they want, and take whatever they want. No one dares to say a word. !

It wasn't like this at first, but since the arrival of the two sons of General Zhenbei, these soldiers have become outrageous. "

Pei Xiaoran was puzzled and said:

"Why didn't you report to the police?"

"Reporting to the official has to be useful!" Xiao Er cried bitterly:
"These bastards are all subordinates of those two little generals. Who dares to take people casually? Besides, they just lost some worthless things. The government will offend those two little generals because of such a trivial matter." Is it? Definitely not!"

He spat on the ground and said angrily:
"Those bastards are also thieves! They never fight with others. If anyone dares to resist or refuse to give something, he will just take away all the things on your stall and don't want your life. Anyway, as long as no one is killed, he will be killed." It's not a big deal, even if these people make a fuss in front of the Holy Majesty, the Holy Majesty can't kill them to make up for their crimes.

But these small losses, which are insignificant in the eyes of high-ranking officials, are enough for us ordinary people to spend a long time for a family. Alas... I don't know where to reason. "
