The queen of the last days became a maid and just wanted to lie down
Chapter 42 Reluctant
"Great catastrophe? What great catastrophe?" Liu Moyan was very curious.
Liu Qingwan thought for a moment and said, "It is said that since Madam Pei escaped death from an assassination attempt last time, her fate has changed. If she continues to marry Zhao Mingbo, it will only bring trouble to both families. It is better to cancel the marriage. It is also said that Madam Pei was frightened after encountering an assassin last time, and her soul is still not complete. She needs to stay in the temple to recuperate for a while and use the positive energy of Buddhism to calm her soul, otherwise she will be in danger of dying young."
After hearing this, Mrs. Pei immediately asked someone to go to the Zhao family.
Outsiders don’t know what happened specifically, but now the two families have returned the engagement letter and the marriage certificate, and the marriage is off.
When Liu Moyan heard this, although she was surprised, she also admired Mrs. Pei for finding a solution so quickly.
She just didn't believe it: "Did the Zhao family really cancel the marriage?"
She remembered that in her previous life, Mr. Zhao from the Zhao family valued Sister Pei very much.
Later, his own son wanted to make his mistress his legal wife, which made Lord Zhao so angry that he fell seriously ill in bed.
Unfortunately, Lord Zhao seemed to be very ill at that time and was completely unable to take care of things. The household was entirely under the control of Madam Zhao.
That's why they dare to treat Sister Pei like this.
Liu Qingwan smiled and said, "I don't know about that. Anyway, Master Zhao has returned and he cancelled the marriage very happily."
Xu Yao could hear it, but he was afraid there were other secrets. No matter how reluctant the Zhao family was, they had to cancel the engagement.
Perhaps it was because Zhao Mingbo tried to apologize but ended up making things worse. In order to save the last bit of face, the Zhao family had to retreat.
I heard that he seems to be going to take part in the imperial examination this year, probably in order to preserve his reputation.
Liu Moyan couldn't figure it out, so she decided to ask Zhang. Zhang was pruning branches, and seeing how anxious she was, she couldn't help but cough twice, "You have such a bad temper, how come you don't have the dignity of a noble lady."
Liu Moyan pulled her hand and acted coquettishly: "Mother, don't worry about this little thing. Tell me quickly, how did the Zhao family agree to cancel the marriage?"
Zhang reluctantly put down the scissors and sat aside. "Why are you so curious?"
"I am also concerned about Sister Pei." He moved closer and said, "If I encounter such a thing again in the future, I will learn how to deal with it. With such a skill, my mother will worry less about me in the future."
Hearing her say this, Zhang's heart softened. Her son had finally grown up. "Yes, you are also getting married soon, you should know a little about these things. Do you still remember the mistress you found?"
"Yes, I know. Could it be that the concubine played a role in their breaking off the engagement?"
Zhang laughed at her: "If it was useless, why did you expose this matter in the first place and let them discover the existence of the concubine?"
Liu Moyan smiled and said, "I just wanted to give it a try. Later, Zhao Mingbo was so shameless and came to my house to apologize. It was obvious that he didn't want to cancel the engagement. Why did he willingly cancel the engagement later?"
"This is about the mistress. I won't hide it from you. You really did the right thing in this matter."
"How to say?"
That day, Zhang called Xu Yao over and asked about the mistress's background. She then had a vague guess, so she asked the Pei family to arrest her. Fortunately, they went there quickly. If they were a step later, the mistress would have already packed up her belongings and escaped.
After they controlled the person, they naturally began to interrogate him.
The Duke of Zhenguo has 10 soldiers under his command, so how could he not have talented interrogators under his command?
When the person was brought to justice, the mistress confessed everything.
Someone deliberately asked the concubine to get close to Zhao Mingbo.
"Who's behind this?"
"The Pei family didn't tell me, they just told me that the purpose of the mistress was to wait for Zhao Mingbo to get married, and then use Zhao Mingbo to enter the Pei family and steal the secrets of the Pei family."
Duke Pei commands a hundred thousand soldiers, and everything in his mansion is military secrets. How could someone reach out here? He is simply courting death.
Zhao Mingbo's stupid behavior is not just due to his romantic debt, but he may have been used by others to do things that are detrimental to the country. If things go wrong, he may even be guilty of treason.
Under such circumstances, with two peace talks, the Zhao family had to give in and cancel the marriage no matter how reluctant they were.
The Duke of Zhenguo was quite kind. Not only did he not make indirect accusations against the man, he also used the reason that his daughter's fate had changed to peacefully cancel the engagement.
The Duke of Zhenguo has been so kind and righteous, and Lord Zhao is not ungrateful. He owes the Duke's Mansion a favor.
Liu Moyan heard this, but still felt angry.
It would be too easy for such a person to be let off so easily.
"Mother doesn't know, that Zhao Mingbo..."
"What's up with him?"
Liu Moyan quickly shut up and remembered that what happened in her previous life had not happened now.
She couldn't use things that didn't happen as evidence. She gritted her teeth and stomped her feet capriciously, "He is just very wicked and annoying, mother. Letting him go like this is really too easy for him."
Zhang couldn't help but roll her eyes at her. "As the Art of War says, don't pursue an enemy who is desperate. Now that Zhao Mingbo has lost face, it's already a relief for the Duke's Mansion. If you continue to pursue him and kill him, you will be inferior in the eyes of others. Others will think that you are being unreasonable. You can't do such a stupid thing, understand?"
Liu Moyan thought about it quietly. Zhang thought she would get angry and refute, but she nodded and said, "Mother, you are right. I understand. Thank you for your teachings."
Zhang was surprised. Her little daughter's change was so strange.
In the past, if I said something bad about her, she would refute me angrily, no matter whether I was right or wrong, she would argue with me and would not stop until I won the argument, which was really annoying.
Now he is obedient?
Xu Yao was recuperating in the house. When he heard the news, he pretended not to understand.
Liu Moyan didn't care whether she understood or not, she just wanted to find someone to talk to.
"I think my mother is right. Although Zhao Mingbo is hateful, if I continue to hold him accountable, I would be being unreasonable. But reason is reason. I feel angry when I think about it. Do you think there is any way to teach him a lesson in private?"
Xu Yao thought, this young lady is quite vindictive.
Rebirth is rebirth, but why is there still a sense of childishness?
The Pei family has stopped pursuing the matter, but she is still pestering here, which will only cause trouble for both parties.
After all, she is my boss. I can't just watch her jump into trouble unless she is ready to quit.
Xu Yao cleared his throat. "Madam, it's better to have less trouble than more. Now that the situation has finally calmed down, if you stir up trouble again, I'm afraid you will end up doing something bad with good intentions. The Zhao family will definitely think that it was the Pei family who asked us to do this. Don't end up losing more than you gain, and it will affect your reputation. That would be bad."
When Liu Moyan heard her say this, she immediately became nervous. "You have a point. You should take good care of your injuries and get well soon. When you are well, come back to work soon. I can't leave you."
Xu Yao smiled and nodded, then sent the person away with a grateful look on his face.
After waiting for a few days, his injuries were completely healed and Xu Yao went out again in the night.
This time she planned to go out for some fishing. She wanted to see who was the person who was against her.
