After rebirth, I became a national teacher
Chapter 419
Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi said.
This was a decision she had considered for a long time.
This threat from the God of Du'e made her realize that she still could not be completely unconnected in the court.
No matter what, Pei Xiao already has a legitimate son with his sister, so he is naturally on her side.
Moreover, he was one of the more capable generals under Emperor Yong'an. As long as he recovered his health, his return to court would not arouse Emperor Yong'an's disgust.
Zhang was subconsciously reluctant.
After all, her good days of dominating the mansion have not lasted long. If Pei Xiao has his own future, will he no longer be under her control?
"Will this foster his ambitions?" she said worriedly.
Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi said confidently:
"No matter how ambitious he is or how promising his future is, the ultimate beneficiary is the baby in my belly, isn't it? As long as my sister is firmly in the position of the principal wife, everything he does is to help you and your son."
Zhang was successfully persuaded.
So the two of them quickly asked someone to call Pei Xiao over.
As soon as they met, Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi said in a friendly manner:
"My sister is not feeling well during her pregnancy and has a bad temper. My brother-in-law has worked hard!"
Obviously, this was a way to give Zhang an excuse for his arrogance and domineering behavior a while ago, and there was also a hint of comfort in it.
Although Pei Xiao resented the Zhang sisters' suppression of him, he was still pleased to hear these words.
As a superior, Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi could say such polite words, which shows that she still has some respect for her brother-in-law.
"Your Majesty is too polite. As a husband, I should be considerate and caring to you."
After a few polite words, Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi got to the point:
"This time, I came here for something that requires my brother-in-law to go to Nandu."
Pei Xiao immediately realized that it was extremely unusual for Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi to ask him to go out of town at the critical moment when Zhang was about to give birth.
"I wonder what exactly does Your Majesty want me to do?"
He did not agree immediately.
Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi said:
"Last time I sent someone to hire a cook for my sister, I'm afraid that I have a grudge against the Cihang Temple. If you don't kill the snake, it will cause endless harm. I need my brother-in-law to make some arrangements to completely eradicate the Cihang Temple to relieve my hatred!"
Of course, she wasn't stupid enough to tell Pei Xiao the truth.
But Pei Xiao still didn't give in.
He knew very well that the fact that Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi asked him to go on a long journey at this time must be extremely important to her.
Because of this, it is a good time for him to negotiate terms.
"It's not that I don't want to help you, but your madam is about to give birth, and I have no time to go to another place..."
Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi naturally understood that this was just an excuse.
Nowadays, many women give birth to children on their own when their husbands are not at home.
Pei Xiao didn't care about her sister that much at all.
However, she was also prepared to give Pei Xiao some benefits.
Then he said calmly:
"If my brother-in-law can handle this matter, I will let you return to the court."
Pei Xiao was a military general. Now that his legs are disabled, he can basically only walk on flat roads. Rain or snow will also affect his movements. This situation is no different from being disabled, and he cannot enter the court.
Therefore, he would not be easily dismissed by Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi's words:
"My lady, I am afraid it will take a lot of effort to convince Your Majesty to let me enter the court in my current state."
He needed a definite answer as to what kind of official position Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi was planning to obtain for him, so as to judge whether she could really accomplish it.
Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi said in an unfathomable manner:
"Brother-in-law, don't worry. As long as you handle this matter well, I will have a way to make your legs recover as before. When the time comes, I will arrange for someone to introduce you back to the court, and there will be no obstacles."
The pills the system left for her actually have similar effects to the elixir from Cihang Temple.
They can all repair hidden injuries, restore patients to health, and make ordinary people stronger.
She didn't have much in stock, but Pei Xiao was now an important chess piece to her, and she could waste one on him.
