stern wife

Chapter 598

Pei Xiaoran was in a state of desperation, so how could he have the time to pay attention to His Royal Highness?

Just as she was about to refuse, she thought about it, as Zhu Lianxi is a prince, there must be more people working for him than her.

Maybe, ask him for help?

Anyway, it's not his fault, if he helps, it's not because he owes others a favor, so there's no need to worry about it.

The refusal that reached his lips was swallowed again, Pei Xiaoran raised his head, and changed his words:

"Go back, I'll go."

Sangcan looked at her little face that couldn't hide her fatigue, and frowned slightly, but when she thought of Zhu Lianxi's identity, she nodded and said:

"it is good."

Pei Xiaoran had already prepared a draft on the way to the appointment, thinking that he would cut to the chase when he arrived, so as not to delay the opportunity to find the child.

But unexpectedly, I thought that as usual, Zhu Lianxi would set the agreed place at a restaurant or teahouse, but this time, it was an ordinary house.

Why, could it be that the owner of this family cooks delicious food?
Full of doubts, Pei Xiaoran walked in with the guide, and when he saw that Zhu Lianxi was indeed sitting in the house, he stepped forward and saluted.

Just as he was about to ask for help, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a cradle and... a child sleeping peacefully with his eyes closed in the cradle.

Pei Xiaoran was taken aback immediately, turned his gaze away, and looked at the person in front of him suspiciously.

"Your Highness, this... this child..."

She just wanted to ask if this child was Pei Shiwen, after all, she hadn't visited him since Pei Shiwen was born.

Moreover, this child will be her enemy when she grows up, so why would she have the heart to visit her enemy?

Who knows, before he finished speaking, Zhu Lianxi nodded and said:
"This child is your ninth brother."

Pei Xiaoran breathed a sigh of relief, and finally found it.

No wonder she has been unable to find out the news about the child. It turned out that it was Zhu Lianxi who did it. No wonder.

But here comes a new question, what did Zhu Lianxi steal Pei Shiwen for?
As if seeing through her mind, before she could speak, Zhu Lianxi continued:
"When this child grows up, he may become a disaster, so he cannot stay."

Hearing this, Pei Xiaoran couldn't help chuckling, and said:
"Could it be that even His Royal Highness believed those rumors? It's just nonsense, it's not enough to believe it."

At first, Pei Xiaoran thought that sister Pei Huayu's words were due to Aunt Zhao's actions.

But a few days passed, not only did Aunt Zhao not take the next step, but this incident even annoyed Emperor Chixuan.

According to Aunt Zhao's scheming, she would never do such a stupid thing that put her own flesh and blood in danger.

Therefore, Pei Xiaoran guessed that this matter should be done by Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli on their own initiative.

As for why they do this...

Probably seeing that he was valued by Emperor Chixuan because of his auspiciousness when he was born, in order to let their younger brother ascend to the sky one step earlier, he wanted to give his younger brother a "auspicious auspiciousness from heaven" too, right?

Moreover, they probably didn't know what the big red bird meant to Suzaku, so they dared to say that.

Furthermore, Pei Xiaoran clearly remembered that Zhu Lianxi was the successor in her previous life, and no one overthrew Zhu Lianxi before she died.

So she was sure that Pei Shiwen was just an innocent child who was mistreated by his two stupid sisters.

however--

What Pei Xiaoran didn't know was that no one overthrew Zhu Lianxi before she died.

But it doesn't mean that after she was killed, no one overthrew him!
I don't know what I recalled, Zhu Lianxi's handsome face, which rarely smiled, became more and more cold.

He was silent for a while, then suddenly said:

"This hall once had a dream."

Pei Xiaoran's heart shuddered, and his round eyes narrowed slightly.

She knew that Zhu Lianxi was going to bring up the past life again.

She used these excuses to him all the time. In order not to reveal his background, he either said that he had dreamed about the things about his previous life, or he heard them from some magic stick.

However, Pei Xiaoran knew in his heart that those things must have been experienced by him in his previous life!

Just listen to the other party slowly say:
"This hall once had a big dream.

In the dream, after inheriting the throne, the main hall was deceived by the villain and killed his capable subordinate.

The villain took this opportunity to spread rumors, saying that the palace murdered Zhongliang, causing a catastrophe for the Suzaku, making the people miserable and mourning.

The army's morale was in turmoil for a while, and he rebelled even more, forcing the palace to... abdicate the throne.

That person is exactly this child - Pei Shiwen. "

Pei Xiaoran's narrowed eyes suddenly widened!

The 'powerful man' needn't be guessed, it should be her.

And she has been very confused about how Zhu Lianxi died in her last life.

After all, she came to the past after her death, and Zhu Lianxi must have died after her death before she was lucky enough to live again.

But it turned out that he was actually killed by Pei Shiwen!

But... why?

Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli's sisters were able to kill themselves and the Pei family only by relying on Zhu Lianxi.

It stands to reason that it is too late for them to curry favor with Zhu Lianxi, their big backer, so how could they let their own younger brother rebel?
Pei Xiaoran was full of doubts, but she couldn't open her mouth to ask questions, lest she also reveal her own background.

She moved towards the cradle without a trace, and said with a dry smile:
"Your Majesty, how can you count the things in the dream?

Moreover, this child is still young now, and it is hard to say what he will look like in the future, so why should His Highness have trouble with a child? "

She was reminding Zhu Lianxi that the events of the previous life had passed.

But in this life, everything has just begun. Since he already knows that Pei Shiwen is a traitor, he just doesn't want to get close to him. Why bother with a child?

Zhu Lianxi just stared at her deeply, deeply, without speaking.

In the last life, Pei Xiaoran died in June.

On that day, it snowed heavily, and it was also in Suzaku territory, the largest and longest snowfall in history.

The consequences of the snowstorm were very serious. The houses collapsed, and the livestock and crops in the field were all frozen to death.

There are even countless people who were frozen to death.

The surplus food in the people's homes can't last long at all, and the sudden drop in temperature doesn't know when it will warm up again.

As a last resort, Zhu Lianxi had no choice but to send someone to a neighboring country to borrow food, and handed over the original position of Pei Xiaoran to Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli's younger brother - Pei Shiwen to take over.

At that time, he still had great trust in the three siblings, and he loved Pei Huayu and sister even more.

After Pei Shiwen took power, Zhu Lianxi sent him to various places for disaster relief and rescue the people.

They also opened up the national treasury, took out almost all their savings, and handed them over to Pei Shiwen to personally escort them to various places in Suzaku.

However, the expected news that Pei Shiwen would live up to his entrustment and successfully complete the task he entrusted, has not been sent back for a long time.
