stern wife

Chapter 769 Doomsday

Those who have concubine daughters in their families, why not send concubine daughters to the palace first instead of sending concubine daughters?

Not to mention Emperor Chixuan, those headed mistresses were the first to disagree.

Even the concubine who has been raised by her side since she was a child, how can she have her own biological daughter?

If he had the opportunity to climb the dragon and become the phoenix, he would be the first to give it to his own daughter.

Hearing the word 'di daughter', Xipin's back tensed suddenly.

At the same time, Emperor Chixuan's sharp gaze shot over like a sword.

Concubine Xi didn't dare to look at her, she lowered her head in panic, the handkerchief in her hand was about to bleed.

She never thought that after so many years, someone would find out about this incident!
Moreover, she thought that she had done this matter extremely secretly, how did Pei Xingshan know about it?
Could it be...he investigated himself?
In fact, this point is something Xibi wanted to go wrong.

Pei Xingshan has always loved her to death, so how could he investigate her?
It's just that growing up in the midst of intrigue and deceit, the sensitivity to certain things is naturally higher than others.

At that time, the list of selected girls had just come down, and the first daughter of the Shi family who was in her prime was naturally also on the list.

However, just before entering the palace, the first daughter of the Shi family suddenly fell ill and died.

While the Shi family was grieving, they were unwilling to give up this good opportunity to grab the dragon's tail and go to heaven, so they took the initiative to recommend the eldest daughter of the family.

That is Shi Shuli.

It is precisely because of this that Shi Shuli, who was supposed to be out of action, had the opportunity to enter the palace.

However, this is definitely not good news for Pei Xingshan.

Pei Xingshan is still waiting to marry Shi Shuli as his wife!
In this way, wouldn't his dream come to nothing?
But if he wants to compete with the Holy One for a woman, he still doesn't have the guts.

So, he could only blame the daughter of the Shi family.

Blame her for why she didn't die sooner or later, but why did she die at this time?

Pei Xingshan vaguely felt that something was wrong.

What's more, this incident involved his most beloved woman, so he secretly sent his subordinates to investigate.

This investigation, let alone, really allowed him to find out something.

First of all, the prostitute's health has always been very good, and she has never heard of any abnormal disease since she was a child.

How could such a person die suddenly of a sudden illness?
And just before she died, everything was normal.

The only thing that was 'abnormal' was probably her good sister Shi Shuli, who gave her a set of small clothes that she claimed to have made for her.

It's normal for good sisters to exchange small, intimate gifts.

Therefore, this little incident did not attract much attention.

Pei Xingshan didn't pay attention at first.

However, he had to pay attention to the news that his subordinates brought back next.

The subordinates said that regarding the cause of the Shi family's daughter's death, the Shi family kept a secret from top to bottom, and they bribed several servants but were unable to find out why.

The subordinate wanted to ask the doctor who had seen the daughter of the Shi family's concubine.

As a result, after inquiring around and finding the doctor's home, I found out that the doctor had moved away with the whole family for some reason.

I didn't even mention where I moved to.

As for what kind of sudden illness the first daughter of the Shi family died of, no matter how hard she checked, she couldn't find out.

Pei Xingshan instantly understood the secret.

The daughter of a wealthy family suddenly 'died of illness', and most of them cannot escape these reasons.

One is having an affair with someone and being discovered.

In order to maintain the reputation of the family, the head of the family will secretly execute the two of them, and then declare 'death of illness' to the outside world.

The second is really sick and dead.

It's just that this disease cannot be told to outsiders.

For example... Hualiu disease.

Unlike Shi Shuli, who loves to show off, the daughter of the Shi family is introverted.

On weekdays, you don't leave the front door, don't walk through the second door, and you can't even see the face of a man, let alone have an affair with someone.

Then, there is only one possibility left.

However, how could the daughter of a rich family contract this disease?
Pei Xingshan immediately thought of the underclothes that Shi Shuli had given to the daughter of the Shi family's prostitute before.

That little suit... there must be something wrong.

I didn't know it was worn by some dirty woman before!

Who the murderer is is obvious.

However, this is just Pei Xingshan's inference, and there is no conclusive evidence.

In addition, Shi Shuli was his beloved woman, Pei Xingshan subconsciously excused her in his heart.

Maybe someone else was playing tricks on Xiaoyi, Shi Shuli was also kept in the dark!
Moreover, he did not believe that Shi Shuli would betray their feelings, abandon him and marry into the palace.

However, until today, Pei Xingshan realized that Shi Shuli had long since betrayed their relationship.

The murderer who killed the Shi family's daughter-in-law back then must also be her!
Because of one thing, whoever gets the most benefits must be the one who caused the crime.

The lovers who used to be deeply affectionate and vowed to each other, today they are like two mad dogs biting each other crazily, wishing to kill each other with every bite.

It seems to be ridiculous.

Seeing that the two were almost biting each other, Emperor Chixuan said slowly:

"You two, really didn't have any personal relationship back then?"

"no!"

The two spoke in unison, which was a rare unanimity of opinion.

"it is good."

Emperor Chixuan chuckled with unknown meaning, then changed the subject suddenly, and asked Pei Xingshan:

"Since the two of you have no personal relationship, I dare to ask Pei Aiqing, when you were still a food and grass officer, why did you leave your post without authorization and risk beheading after learning that Concubine Xi was ill? On the way to escort the food and grass, he turned back privately halfway, and went back to see her overnight.

As a result, most of the food and grass were robbed by bandits? "

Hearing the questioning, Pei Xingshan was struck by lightning!
How could the Holy Majesty know this secret that he had been hiding for so many years?

Could it be... Pei Xiaoran? !
Pei Xingshan's body trembled slightly, and he could hardly maintain the calm expression on his face.

Meanwhile, Concubine Xi, who was at the side, was even paler, and she no longer had the arrogance she had before.

If Emperor Chixuan even found out about this matter.

That means he already knows everything.

No matter how much they quibble, it's just a dying struggle.

Back then, when Pei Xingshan was a food and grass officer, an accident did happen.

That time, as usual, he received the task of delivering grain and grass.

All went well.

However, in the middle of the journey, Pei Xingshan suddenly received a secret letter from his subordinates who had been in charge of secretly protecting Xi Concubine.

The letter said that Concubine Xi had a serious illness recently, and she looked quite serious, and she didn't know if she could survive it.

When Pei Xingshan heard this, what's the deal?

He wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly back to his beloved woman immediately.

However, as a food and grass officer, he must protect the safety of the food and grass, which is the order of the border officers and soldiers.

Unless his parents or relatives at home passed away, otherwise, he absolutely cannot return at will.
