The eldest princess's mansion.

Pei Chun looked at the Minister of Justice who was waiting at the door to invite people, and said with high morale: "Master Zhang, can't I go with my mother?"

She wants to personally deal with these two idiots, Pei Zhong and Pei Lin!

After all, the trap has been set up for so long. If she can't see with her own eyes the misfortune of Pei Zhong and Pei Lin, father and daughter, she will definitely not be able to sleep tonight!

The Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice looked at the distinguished Princess on the left, and then looked at the daughter of the Duke of Xin on the right who insisted on entering the palace.

He secretly groaned in his heart, but still put on a very respectful smile on his face and said, "Of course you can.

It's just going into the palace to confront the Minister of Personnel in front of His Majesty.

The Sixth Miss will soon be crowned a princess, so of course you can go if you want."

Pei Chun nodded with satisfaction, wrapped himself in his cloak and got on the carriage first.

I remembered what the Minister of Justice said just now, the so-called "The Princess's Mansion threatened the Crown Prince and coerced Pei Zhong to create a tea garden."

He sneered in his heart, if his elder brother had not seen that thing in Pei Zhong's study a long time ago, if his mother had not anticipated it and taken action.

I'm afraid that if it weren't for the Princess's family, it would be easy for them to suffer a serious setback.

Just like in the previous life.

Ever since the incident at the prince's palace banquet that went against his moral principles, her mother had taught her step by step.

The Queen and the Sixth Prince will certainly take this opportunity to test the Princess's Mansion to see if they know about the incident in the Crown Prince's Buddhist temple.

She was also taught that as for the Crown Prince, under the Emperor's clear intention, the Princess's Mansion would not choose to help the Crown Prince.

Then they are enemies, and given the prince's character, he will certainly not give up easily.

There was also Pei, who was rejected and lost face, and became involved with the prince's party.

This "tea garden" incident was the method that Pei Chun's mother taught him personally.

In her previous life, without her mother, she would not have had so many twists and turns in her mind and would have rushed to the Pei mansion with a knife.

But, in this life, her mother guided her every step of the way.

Layout half moon.

Today is the time to test the results!

The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice who came this time was none other than the Queen's cousin from her maiden family, and also the Sixth Prince's man.

Pei Chun knew.

This means that this confrontation in the palace is a test between the Queen and the Sixth Prince.

Now, perhaps, the Crown Prince and the Sixth Prince have already joined forces, just to covet Pei's 80,000 soldiers...

What is even more subtle this time is the emperor's attitude.

At the palace banquet, he spoke to the Princess in that way, clearly meaning to cut off the possibility of the Princess's Mansion and the Crown Prince joining forces.

The emperor didn't know that this would be the consequence? Pei Chun didn't believe it.

But... she still has the most crucial trump card in her hand. Even if the tea garden is really named as the Princess's Mansion, she is not afraid!

The carriage swayed and rolled over the winter snow on the road, and the dry and cold air was filled with the unique chilly smell of the north.

Pei Chun lowered his eyes and looked at the exquisite hand warmer in his hand. He rubbed it unconsciously and suddenly remembered that when he met Gu Yuan, he seemed to have never brought such a thing with him.

I don’t know if I’m not afraid of the cold or if I’ve become accustomed to it.

Well, it will be over soon. I will send him another one when I leave the palace.

In the palace.

Early in the morning, the first news the emperor received was:

"Duke Xin won? He has already returned to the capital? Hahaha, that's great! I will definitely reward Pei Ding this time!"

The emperor held the secret report in his hand and once again praised the fighting ability of Duke Xin's family.

He couldn't help but show some admiration on his face.

After this battle, Western Xinjiang lost all its borders and is no longer a force to be reckoned with. Even if another hostage is sent over, it will not be able to stop him!

It will not be long before the State of Zhao will completely invade the Western Frontier!

He couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth and was about to instruct the eunuchs around him to prepare a good welcoming banquet.

The old eunuch lowered his head and presented a document with a bloody handprint.

The next second, the emperor saw what Pei Zhong confessed in prison.

His expression changed, he frowned and waved his hand, brushing away the queen who was adjusting his clothes.

He stood there holding Pei Zhong's confession, looking at the paper in his hand with anger and irritation.

It reads, 'Due to the military power in the hands of the Duke, I have no choice but to obey the orders of Princess Jiashan, build a tea garden, and collect information from officials in the capital.

Accepting bribes, forming cliques for personal gain...'

The emperor's face darkened.

He understood what had happened almost instantly, and was secretly angry at Pei Zhong, the Crown Prince, and the Sixth Prince who had caused him trouble.

The emperor's mind raced, and almost instantly, he felt that this seemed to be a good thing...

This is a perfect opportunity to suppress the arrogance of Duke Xin who just won the victory.

This is to prevent people from having inappropriate thoughts just because they won a battle.

Wait till the end.

The emperor then slowly summoned the crown prince, the sixth prince, Princess Jiashan, Pei Zhong and others to the Qinzheng Hall.

After waiting for a long time, we finally got to see all the people involved in this incident.

-

Standing at the gate of the magnificent palace, I watched my mother walking in front, being supported step by step by the eunuchs into the palace.

Pei Chun was in a daze for a few seconds.

It was the young eunuch beside her who noticed her daze and reminded her in a low voice.

She snapped back to her senses.

No! This is not the last life! She did nothing wrong this time! Mother will definitely not be implicated by her!

Moreover, in this life, she had the upper hand and went to Pei Zhong's house with her brother to conduct a thorough search.

This time, it was the Princess's Mansion that took the initiative!

This time, she will definitely beat Pei Zhong so hard that he will never be able to recover!

Although it is impossible to kill the Crown Prince and the Sixth Prince without a burial place at once.

But Pei Zhong is the prince's minion, and if he is removed, the prince will also suffer losses.

The most important thing is that Pei Chun cannot accept that Pei Lin and Feng Huan, those two scums, are getting away with it!

If Feng Huan foolishly jumped into the pit today, he would definitely be punished!

Take your time...take your time...

She advised herself this way.

As soon as she came in, she found her elder brother Pei Qing kneeling upright, but there was no expression on his face.

Kneeling together was the prince.

He was in tears, looking very aggrieved.

The Sixth Prince sat at the low table without looking around, with a calm expression, as if he didn't see the eldest princess come in.

Pei Zhong was being held up in the hall, wearing dirty pajamas stained with blood, with not a single piece of good flesh on his body.

Pei Chun knelt down obediently along with his mother. When he stood up, he looked upward and glanced at the emperor with white hair on his temples.

Then he lowered his eyes obediently, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Jiashan, look." The emperor waved his hand, and it was not clear how serious he looked.

The elderly eunuch beside him stepped forward respectfully.

Present the paper on the tray to the princess.

The princess's expression remained unchanged, she frowned and took the paper.

Pei Chun also followed behind his mother and picked up Pei Zhong's confession and took a look at it.

I kept sneering in my heart, but after I sneered, I felt refreshed.

After reading it, the princess began to tremble all over and seemed to be extremely angry.

She was so angry that she threw the paper in her hand onto the tray, and then she said angrily in a low voice: "Royal brother, I'm sorry that I can't acknowledge this confession.

Not to mention that my sister has nothing to do with Pei Zhong, even if there is a relationship, it is impossible for them to have no contact with each other until they die!

Back then, Pei drove my sister's husband and his mother out of the house!

Now he still lives alone in Huiming Temple!

The mother of the son-in-law is the first wife of the old patriarch of the Pei family! The old patriarch of the Pei family favors his concubine and kills his wife, and even ignores his legitimate son.

This is why my sister's husband has suffered so much for so many years, and my husband has finally lived a better life in recent years.

But I didn't expect Pei to come back and bite me. The legitimate son whom I once looked down upon is here!"

The princess finished her words with a trembling voice, then fell to her knees with a plop. She cried in a muffled voice, with a trembling sob or two coming from time to time.

Pei Chun knew that they had driven away his grandmother and father, and that his mother had used some tricks to cause the Pei family to decline.

Now that my mother has brought up the past again, it is clear that she wants the emperor to know how angry his sister is, so that she can be punished more leniently for what she has done...

If I fail, my mother will have a reason to shirk responsibility.

The main show hasn't even started yet, but my mother has already left a way out for herself. This idea is really terrifying.

The emperor hummed and nodded, his voice adding a bit of majesty and comfort: "I know, Jiashan, you will not do such a thing.

I also know that Duke Xin would not do such a thing.

but……"

The emperor raised his head and looked at Pei Chun who was as quiet as a chicken on the side: "Chun'er girl, come and tell your uncle the emperor, why did Pei Zhong go to the Princess's mansion a few days ago?"

Pei Chun rolled his eyes slightly, put down the confession in his hand, lowered his head, spoke in a low voice, and told the truth: "Master Pei does not want Dad to leave the Pei Clan Ancestral Hall.

He said that it was unfilial for Dad to leave the ancestral temple, and he also wanted Mom to come to the palace to plead for the Pei family, so that the emperor would not punish the Pei family. He also did not want Miss Pei San to become the Crown Prince's concubine. "

These were the words my mother said when she went to the palace to cry to the Queen Mother. There's nothing wrong with her bringing them up now.

During the whole process of her conversation with the princess, Pei Zhong, covered in blood, knelt silently in the same place.

It was as if he didn't care at all what the mother and daughter said.

The emperor frowned and turned his eyes to Pei Zhong who was pinned to the ground: "You are so courageous! How dare you go to the Princess's Mansion and be so presumptuous?!

It is my will to ask Duke Xin to withdraw from the Pei Clan Ancestral Hall. Why, are you dissatisfied with my will? Moreover, Jiashan is the eldest princess. How can the princess's mansion allow you to act so presumptuously? ! "

The emperor's words implied displeasure.

Pei Chun curled the corners of his mouth.

Although the emperor was not angry because the eldest princess was bullied, it was Pei Zhong's behavior of making a scene in the eldest princess's mansion that was tantamount to contempt for the imperial power, which made the emperor displeased.

No matter what, the eldest princess is still a member of the royal family. If she allows herself to be bullied, it would be a loss of face for the entire royal family.

But the emperor absolutely could not tolerate this happening.

So she said this on purpose, and it touched the emperor's sore spot.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am innocent! It is Your Highness the Princess who is talking nonsense. I have no dissatisfaction with you at all. I went to the Princess's mansion that time just to hand in the account book!

There has never been any such words! Your Majesty, please understand! "

On the other side, Pei Zhong finally showed some reaction. He looked ugly and depressed, and cried loudly in grievance.

Pei Zhong gritted his teeth secretly and angrily repeated the name of that dead girl Pei Chun in his heart.

He thought to himself, this damn girl actually set a trap for him with just a few words, making him get scolded for nothing!

He did indeed do this, and it cannot be refuted.

However, as long as he doesn't say it, no one will know what happened in the Princess's Mansion that day!

Pei Zhong pretended to look around anxiously, and after a while he seemed to remember something, and suddenly rushed forward two steps, crying: "Her Royal Highness the Princess holds the power in her hands.

But I am only a lowly minister. How can I compete with Her Royal Highness the Princess? Her Royal Highness can kill me with just one word.

However, Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Princess and Duke Xin were clearly the ones who did something wrong. If Your Majesty does not believe it, why not ask some people who are close to Her Royal Highness the Princess to ask them!

Your Majesty, there is a boy from the Feng family who can testify for me!

The boy from the Feng family has a close relationship with Duke Xin and was raised by Duke Xin. He cannot possibly side with a humble minister!

Your Majesty, please call the person over so that we can have a confrontation!

It will also prevent your Majesty from being kept in the dark..."

Pei Zhong cried with tears and snot.
