stern wife

Chapter 420 There is something in the words
Marquis Weiyuan's family knelt down on the ground and kowtowed, but they didn't wait for the Holy One's words of "flat body" for a long time.

Emperor Chixuan seemed to treat them as if they didn't exist at all, and was chatting with Pei Xiaoran about family affairs.

Emperor Chixuan took a look at Pei Xiaoran's new clothes, and praised with deep meaning:

"This year's new clothes are good, very beautiful."

This year, Pei Xiaoran's new clothes are not only made with care, but the background color is also well chosen. With peach red as the background color, it makes the little girl more pink, tender, delicate and lovely.

Pei Xingshan covered his lips uncomfortably and gave a low cough.

Emperor Chixuan looked over immediately, and asked with concern:
"What's wrong with Pei Aiqing?"

Pei Xingshan got up quickly, and responded respectfully:
"Thank you for your majesty's concern, I don't feel any discomfort."

"That's good."

Emperor Chixuan looked left and right, and asked pretending to be puzzled:
"Why didn't Pei Aiqing bring her other beloved sons and daughters here this year? Although they made a small mistake last year, I am not a small-hearted person, and I didn't take it to heart. If it is because of this, then Pei Aiqing can rest assured. I won't blame them anymore, just let them come, it's a lot of people~"

Pei Xingshan's face was full of embarrassment when he heard that, the Holy Majesty was making it clear that he was mocking the untrue praise he had given to the concubine and concubine daughter before.

Otherwise, if they were really as outstanding as Pei Xingshan said, how could they make such mistakes?

Pei Xingshan secretly resented those concubines for not standing up for him, but at the same time had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply:

"I have no way to teach my sons, so that I let them offend His Majesty, and I dare not bring them out at will. I think I will bring them to plead guilty to Your Majesty after I have taught them well."

"There's no need to apologize," Emperor Chixuan waved his hand generously, saying:

"It's just a small mistake, Pei Aiqing shouldn't be too harsh on them, but if I can teach me a few more pillars of the country, that would be great."

Pei Xingshan hurriedly bowed his head and cupped his hands and said:

"The minister must do his best."

Seeing Pei Xingshan's sincere and fearful appearance, Pei Xiaoran felt amused for a while, and then gave Chixuan Emperor a grateful look.

She knew in her heart that Emperor Chixuan brought this up on purpose to vent his anger on himself last year!

Last year, the old lady deliberately made the worst clothes for her to choose.

Not only that, Pei Xingshan even brought the sons and daughters into the palace, as if the heirs of the Pei family couldn't do anything.

So, this year, Emperor Chi Xuan deliberately mentioned the matter of clothes, and reminded Pei Xingshan again of the stupid things his concubines and concubines had done, which was equivalent to pulling her father's face over and hitting him again.

What a cool word!
Wu Shi and the others also recalled the memory, and couldn't help but look at Pei Xingshan in unison.

Pei Xingshan felt angry when he was seen, but Emperor Chixuan was right in front of him, so he couldn't vent his anger.

This fire can only be held in his heart to burn himself.

What's more, if he didn't want to let the concubines stand out through the palace banquet, and insisted on asking the Holy Grace to bring them into the palace, how could all the subsequent things happen?

So, if you want to blame, you can only blame yourself.

Seeing that the little thing was full of gratitude, looking up at him with sparkling eyes, Emperor Chixuan couldn't help but raised his hand and rubbed her head, and then his mood improved a little.

Then he raised his head and looked at Weiyuanhou's family who were still kneeling on the ground.

Emperor Chixuan spoke lightly, but with an unquestionable majesty in his tone, he asked:

"Fu Aiqing, I heard Xiaoran say that your daughter insulted Xiaoran, is there such a thing?"

Marquis Weiyuan's expression was stunned, apparently he hadn't recovered from the Han Chan incident.

Seeing that Marquis Weiyuan remained silent, as if he had acquiesced, Dai was afraid that his precious daughter would be punished, so he hurriedly said:

"Reply, report back to Your Majesty, it's actually not as serious as what Miss Pei said, it's just a small quarrel between children, how could it become an insult? This Miss Pei is really exaggerating, I hope Your Majesty will see it in my daughter's way." For the sake of smallness, the adults have a lot to spare her this time..."

Emperor Chixuan didn't even lift his eyelids, he just said:

"I'm asking Fu Aiqing."

Dai Shi shut his mouth all of a sudden, his face flushed red, as if someone had strangled his neck.

Probably because he was overwhelmed by the coercion emanating from Emperor Chixuan, Marquis Weiyuan finally came back to his senses.

In any case, Fu Wenshu is his own daughter, a treasure he has held in his palm for more than ten years, so after thinking about it, Marquis Weiyuan also pleaded for his daughter:

"Your Majesty, the little girl is not sensible, and she said something she shouldn't have said at the moment. I hope that Your Majesty will give her a chance to correct her mistakes. I can guarantee that she will not commit any crimes again in the future. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."

Dai quickly pulled her two sons and daughters to kowtow and said loudly:

"I beg Your Majesty to show mercy!"

Wu looked at this pleading, pitiful family, but couldn't feel any sympathy. Instead, she couldn't hide her anger and clenched the handkerchief tightly.

Oh, Dai's daughter is a treasure. Her daughter deserves to be humiliated like this? !
How important a girl's reputation is, doesn't Dai, who has a daughter, understand? !

If Dai's daughter was humiliated today, would she still beg His Majesty to show mercy to her? !
Wu Shi was not good at words, so she could only grit her teeth, her lips turned white.

Seeing his mother's rarely so angry expression, Pei Xiaoran immediately jumped off the chair and threw himself into his mother's arms, comforting him softly:
"Mother, it's all right, Xiaoran is all right, just a few words, it doesn't hurt or itch."

Immediately, she looked at Emperor Chixuan again, and said:

"Your Majesty, why don't you let them go, it's just a few words anyway, let Sister Wen Shu change it later."

Dai Shi immediately hit the snake and echoed with the staff on the stick:
"Yes, Your Majesty, you see, even Xiaoran himself said so, so please let Shu'er go."

Emperor Chixuan sneered, and asked Dai Shi back:
"If I publicize what your daughter said today, saying that your daughter is a slanderous, vulgar woman who is a vassal of a noble family, would you still think it's just a little quarrel?"

No matter men or women, the word 'virtue' is the most important thing in the world.

What's more, Fu Wenshu is still the daughter of the daughter of Lord Hou's family. If she is publicized like this, no one will dare to marry her after that.

Not only that, the entire Weiyuan Hou Mansion might be dragged down by her, and the other girls in the Hou Mansion would never be able to find a good husband again.

After all, where a woman who is 'full of foul language and unbearably vulgar' can be taught, it is impossible for other children to be of good character.

Dai's face turned pale, and he was speechless.

Emperor Chixuan looked at Marquis Weiyuan again, and said slowly:

"Fu Aiqing, you and I are people who have read poetry and books since childhood and are full of knowledge. We should know the truth of 'Don't do good things because they are small, and don't do evil things because they are small'. Today, your daughter insulted Xiaoran, I have spared her. Tomorrow, someone sees that they insulted Xiaoran and did not get any punishment. If someone insults her again, then I would like to ask Fu Aiqing, whether I will punish the person who insulted Xiaoran tomorrow... or not. ?”
