stern wife

Chapter 879
However, I set many traps, but only one was triggered.

Uh... I mean, I want to ask you, is this person your last hole card? "

Qiao Jing, an 'honest man', is best at hidden weapons and setting various traps in the dark.

Therefore, as soon as Hei Die came, he was caught by him.

Hei Die looked at Jiang Jinyue with guilt on her face, but her mouth was blocked by a cloth strip, so she couldn't say a word.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Jinyue almost fell over with anger!

She finally changed her complexion and screamed uncontrollably:
"Where's Zhu Lianxi? What about others?"

Qiao Jing smiled, pointed to the ground, and said:

"Our Majesty has already gone to other places along the underground palace, and he has to go to court tomorrow, so he can't sleep late.

Do you have anything to do with him? "

Only then did Jiang Jinyue realize that it turned out that she was not the one who plotted against Pei Xiaoran.

Instead, Zhu Lianxi and Pei Xiaoran plotted together!

Jiang Jinyue collapsed to the ground, while Pei Huayu turned around and ran away!
Without Pei Xiaoran's instructions, Pei Huayu was easily captured.

As soon as Shen Yue raised the long knife in his hand, he wanted to end these two remaining evils, but was stopped by Pei Xiaoran with a wave of his hand.

"Take them to the prison first, I still have something to ask them."

Only then did Shen Yue put down the knife, nodded, and personally escorted Jiang Jinyue and her daughter to the prison with several others.

As for Hei Die, he was slaughtered on the spot.

Because a loyal dead man like Hei Die, if kept, will only cause endless disasters.

-

Three days later, everything has returned to normal.

The rebellious soldiers are of course fake, and Wu's illness is also fake, and Zhu Lianxi never visited the concubines in the harem again.

However, even though it was all fake, Pei Xiaoran went home and stayed with his mother for a day and a night before returning.

Because of Pei Jianbing's deliberate concealment, Mrs. Wu didn't know what happened outside, so she had fun with Pei Xiaoran.

Taking advantage of the brief separation between mother and daughter, Pei Jianbing called Pei Xiaoran and told her about Pei Xingshan's murder.

"At that time...it was before Aunt Zhao...no, before Jiang Jinyue acted, she probably wanted to wipe out the grass and leave no enemy behind."

Pei Xiaoran thought for a while, and said this.

Pei Jianbing looked carefully, but did not find a trace of sadness on Pei Xiaoran's face, and it became clear in his heart instantly.

It seems that his concubine younger brother treats his concubine's biological daughter with no devotion or affection.

Otherwise, a person like Pei Xiaoran who knows how to repay kindness and has great affection would not be so indifferent when he heard of his biological father's death.

Pei Jianbing raised his hand, patted Pei Xiaoran's thin shoulder, and sighed:
"Thanks for your hard work."

Originally, husbands and fathers were supposed to protect the family and the wives and children in the family from wind and rain.

This is also a lifelong responsibility that a husband and a father should take on.

In the end, not only did Pei Xingshan not protect them from the wind and rain, all the wind and rain were brought by Pei Xingshan.

Growing up in such a family will not lead to happiness and success.

However, Pei Xiaoran still relied on his own hard work and desperation to forcibly break out of the desperate situation Pei Xingshan created for her, and blazed a bright road.

The phrase 'hard work' is definitely not an exaggeration.

Pei Xiaoran waved his hand, and wrote lightly:
"But err."

After a pause, he asked again:
"Then what happened to him..."

"It's been handled properly," Pei Jianbing said with a smile:
"I live next to him and my father. The father and son have not seen each other for many years, so they must miss each other very much."

Pei Xiaoran was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and laughed.

The two looked at each other, and all the bad things were silent.

Back in the palace, before Pei Xiaoran sat down to rest and drink tea, he heard the news from his servants.

Said that the Holy Majesty asked her to go to the prison and ask her if she had anything to do, and the two remnants of Xi Zhaoguo would not be able to stay for a moment.

"In such a hurry?"

Pei Xiaoran was puzzled, but he got up and went.

As a result, it was only after a look that I finally realized why Zhu Lianxi was so anxious.

Pei Xiaoran asked the jailer beside him to raise the lantern higher, and finally saw clearly what the two lumps of things lying on the ground in the prison were.

On a pile of messy straw, there were two thin men curled up, covered in blood, and the original color of the prison uniform could hardly be seen.

His long hair was also messy and tangled up, covering most of his face.

Come later, afraid of being beaten to death?

"Get up! The Empress wants to see you!"

The jailer who opened the door walked in, kicked the two of them unceremoniously, and roared impatiently.

But after hearing two small screams, it took a long time for the two faces, which had become scarred and unrecognizable, to slowly lift up.

Pei Xiaoran was slightly startled, but his expression didn't fluctuate much.

She remembered that in her previous life, her nephew was also tortured because of them.

That's still a child...

Not to mention herself, she was also tortured for several days.

Those... are all thanks to the two people in front of me...

Therefore, she really couldn't feel any compassion for these two people.

Neither do they.

"Six...sister?"

Pei Huayu's originally flowery and jade-like face was swollen badly from the beating, and with the bloodstains all over it, how could there be a trace of her original alluring appearance?

She managed to see Pei Xiaoran's face clearly through her eyes that were squeezed into two slits, and hurriedly crawled over, begging:

"Sixth sister... Please... Please let me out... I was wrong... I was really wrong..."

Immediately, he pointed angrily at Jiang Jinyue who was silent behind him, and said sharply:
"She is the remnant of Xi Zhaoguo...but she has nothing to do with me!

She's not my mother, she's just a damn enemy!

My father is Pei Xingshan, I am from the Pei family, from the Suzaku Pei family!

So... Please, let me go... Please, Sixth Sister..."

She was crying and crying, looking so pitiful.

Pei Xiaoran didn't even bother to look at her any more, and just looked straight at Jiang Jinyue.

As expected of a person who used to be a princess, even though she suffered such a catastrophe, she still remained proud and did not utter a word begging for mercy.

I saw her crawling to the edge of the wall, leaning against the wall and finally sitting up, trying to straighten her back, trying her best to maintain the last self-esteem and decency of a princess.

Hearing Pei Huayu's words, she just smiled coldly, without much anger.

Probably... In her heart, she never regarded Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli as her own daughters, but just chess pieces.

After all, half of the blood of the enemy is still flowing on these two children.

She is willing to raise them up, which is already the best of her benevolence.

Pei Xiaoran asked the jailer to leave the lantern and hang it on the wall, and then screened everyone around him away.
