The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

Su Jin looked at Pei Jingzhi and asked, "Pei Jingzhi, are you willing?"

"I'm willing!" Pei Jingzhi said without hesitation.

In the past, he angrily denounced the Demon Suppression Division, feeling that the Demon Division was disrupting the law and causing chaos in the court, but now... from questioning to understanding, he is more willing to follow it for life.

"That's good, now..."

Su Jin turned her gaze and called out, "Chen Youli, Wu Mingyu, Yang Tao."

Three elite soldiers stepped forward in unison.

"Pei Jingzhi is new to the Demon Suppression Division and still needs to learn many rules, especially how to kill the Demon of Love. The three of you will be responsible for supervising him."

All three of them were taken aback.

The three of them are elites, and it's normal for them to have subordinates, but they all use ruthless methods. Given Pei Jingzhi's age and his previous status, can he withstand their training?

However, all three were intelligent people.

They quickly understood Su Jin's intention.

This is to properly train Pei Jingzhi and make him the sharpest blade in the Demon Suppression Division!

They immediately knelt down and agreed in unison.

How could Pei Jingzhi not understand this meaning?

But right now, he has absolutely no intention of refusing.

He's willing!

I'd love to!

Start from the lowest rank, start from the lowest rank of soldier who takes up a knife and kills!

Throughout his life, he was loyal to the emperor, the country, and the ancestral temple.

In the end, the ruler was a false ruler, the country was in chaos, and the family was ruined!

The empress usurped the throne and wreaked havoc on the court. The Great Yu Dynasty was utterly corrupt, and even his wife and children were deceiving him!

In this world, there is no ruler to be loyal to, and no country to defend!

Today, we will abandon that false imperial lineage and the rotten Great Yu, and submit to the banner of a wise ruler!

For the Duke, for the Demon Suppression Division, I wield the whip and shovel the wicked, to sweep away the demons and restore order to the world!

Ren Tianye observed Pei Jingzhi's demeanor and actions.

I am very satisfied.

It seems that Pei Jingzhi is not entirely inflexible.

Or rather, his rigid thinking has been broken.

That makes it possible to do it!

He called out, "Su Jin."

"Your subordinate is here!"

"Take the people from the Demon Suppression Division and take Liu Shi and her daughter away. Pei Jingzhi, stay here. I have some questions to ask you."

"yes!"

Su Jin led her men away, and Ren Tianye looked at Pei Jingzhi.

Pei Jingzhi was now truly beginning to accept Ren Tianye as a wise ruler, so he quickly jogged a few steps to Ren Tianye's side.

"There is something I believe only you know."

"Please speak, Your Excellency. I will speak frankly and without reservation." Pei Jingzhi's posture was respectful, yet it also carried a certain integrity. Such people are always the most appreciated by leaders.

Don't expect someone who only knows how to flatter; you need to have your own ideas, thoughts, and initiative. However, when your superiors assign tasks, you should prioritize the overall situation.

Pei Jingzhi was clearly such a person.

Otherwise, under Xiao Mingzhao's command, they would either be assimilated or die young and fiercely resisting.

"Do you know the White-Robed Prime Minister?"

"The Prime Minister in White?" Pei Jingzhi was taken aback. "I only know a little about him. He is said to be a close friend of the former Empress, but I don't know much about him. After all, I have been sent out by the Empress and have not been back in the capital for long."

"It's said that only you know the current location of the White-Robed Prime Minister?"

"I?"

Pei Jingzhi was stunned again. How did he know?

However, he quickly realized what was happening and said, "Lord Duke, it seems I do know."

"I just didn't pay attention to it."

"Lord Duke, may I go to the study? There is a blood edict that the Empress once gave me, one of which was addressed to Princess Xiao Ruyi and mentioned her."

Ren Tianye nodded, and Pei Jingzhi hurried to the study and quickly took out three blood edicts.

Otherwise, how could Pei Jingzhi become a pillar of the Dayu Dynasty? His influence as an official and merchant was definitely not low.

Of these three blood edicts, two were more or less aimed at Ren Tianye, but Pei Jingzhi had no intention of hiding them and boldly let Ren Tianye see them.

The gamble was that Ren Tianye wouldn't bring up the past and blame him.

As expected, Ren Tianye didn't care at all.

Ren Tianye threw away the blood letter that Xiao Mingzhao had given to Pei Jingzhi. He opened the remaining two letters first, the one given to him by Xiao Mingzhao, and almost burst out laughing when he saw them.

This could be considered a love letter, right?

I never expected that Lao Ren would also be enjoying the good life, and even be able to enjoy the benefits of this absurd female-oriented world. It's outrageous that there are still women who have such high expectations of him!

Just throw it away.

Looking at the edict from Xiao Mingzhao to Princess Xiao Ruyi, I found the passage that clearly stated: If Xiao Ruyi is unsure about something, she may go to Chongning Nunnery.

It is written later: If you cannot find the person at Chongning Nunnery, you can look for them in Wuyin Valley outside the city.

Misty Valley?

Ren Tianye perked up: "Wang Ming, Wei Shuo."

"Your subordinate is here!"

"Lead the army out of the city, with our target being Misty Valley."

"yes!"

The two responded in unison.

Wei Shuo took the lead.

There was no way around it; outsiders like Wang Ming and Ren Tianye had no idea exactly where Misty Valley was. In fact, not only Ren Tianye and Wang Ming, but even Pei Jingzhi didn't know.

Only Wei Shuo knew the approximate location.

Just to be on the safe side, before setting off with his men, Wei Shuo sent someone to inform Su Pengcheng, the head of the Su family in Kyoto.

Su Pengcheng was more familiar with the terrain inside and outside the capital than Wei Shuo. With Su Pengcheng there, they would surely be able to find the exact hiding place of the white-robed prime minister.

Wei Shuo's prediction was correct.

He and Wang Ming led their army to the western outskirts of the capital, but they could not find the exact location of the White-Robed Prime Minister. After all, this Misty Valley was located at the bend of the Cold Mist River, a tributary of the Wei River. It was surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side. The valley entrance was narrow and gradually widened inwards, and the size of the valley inside was unknown.

Moreover, the Misty Valley is shrouded in mist year-round, making it difficult to spot a person five steps away. It also has towering ancient trees and intertwined vines, making it easy for someone who is not very familiar with the place to get lost.

As a result, despite Wei Shuo and Wang Ming leading a large army, they were unable to find their way around and locate the true residence of the White-Robed Prime Minister.

Fortunately, Su Pengcheng arrived.

"Lord Duke, generals, there is a small house in this Misty Valley that is quite extraordinary. I have known about it for a long time, but I did not know that it was related to the White-Robed Prime Minister. Please forgive me."

Su Pengcheng personally led the way, and the group followed him in a daze. They found that the valley was quite dilapidated, with seven or eight broken thatched huts scattered around, their walls collapsed and windows shattered, overgrown with weeds, as if no one had lived there for a long time.

Only one small house remained intact.

"This must be it."

Su Pengcheng said, "I've been here before. This little house can't possibly hide a prime minister in white robes, can it?"

Wei Shuo's thoughts were completely different from Su Pengcheng's. Su Pengcheng's visit did not mean he had seen the true face of the White-Robed Prime Minister, and besides, this small house might not be unable to hide him.

He led his men to search inch by inch, and soon discovered the clues.

"My lord, there's a secret passage here!"

Everyone was startled and crowded around to look. They saw a hidden door on the floor of the room. When they opened it, they found a winding, wide underground passage.
