My Cousin is So Weak

Chapter 266 Yuheli, mother and son beg in front of the palace

Ning'an Garden, the courtyard where Mrs. Pei lives.

At this moment, all the servants had left, and only the mother and son were in the room, one face solemn and the other calm.

After a while, Mrs. Pei sighed and asked slowly.

"I don't want such a big stall. Are you sure?"

"The Pei family's stall is big, but how many people have been trapped? Father, mother, and we are all the victims. I don't want to be a person who wants both things and wants like my father, so I ask my mother to relax too. , plan more for your future life.”

"To put it lightly, you can give up these things, but what about Ah Yao and Ah Miao? What will they do in the future? They will still have to stay in Hanzhou for a long time. How will they face their tribesmen?"

Hearing this, Pei Zichen was not in a hurry, and then explained to Mrs. Pei.

"Compared with the titles of eldest daughter and third son of the Pei family, my son feels that General Pei is more suitable for them. They have been in the army like me since they were young. Now, with the victory of the Southern Tang Dynasty, they have also established themselves in the army. If you lose your heel, you will lose the Pei family. The blessing of this level of status will not affect anything. Besides, I told the prince about this before coming here. As long as he is here, no one will touch the two of them. After all, Hanzhou has restrained Xijing City, and Xijing City cannot Did you also contain Hanzhou? "

This is absolutely true. The two of them are Pei Zisu's biological brothers and sisters. Since he has thought about everything, how could he not prepare an escape route for them?

After hearing such an answer, Mrs. Pei's back, which had been straight for many years, bent unconsciously, and her eyes were filled with guilt and distress as she looked at Pei Zifan.

He hesitated to speak, but finally spoke.

"It's been all these years that you three brothers and sisters have suffered so much. It's my incompetence as a mother that makes your life so difficult. I'm sorry."

"What mother said is right or wrong. When we were children and needed care and love, your indifference was really hurtful. But now that we are older and think about it, it is not unreasonable that hard work can penetrate our bones. At least the three of us No one ever disappoints his mother, right?"

Mrs. Pei nodded and tears fell.

She stretched out her hand to cover her face, and a low cry came out. For so many years, she had never cried in front of the children, and she always looked cold, arrogant, and frosty. But now, Pei Zifan's words made her lose that layer. Proud.

She always owed her children "I'm sorry", so she also wanted to spend the rest of her life trying to make up for the maternal love they lacked in childhood.

Pei Zisu didn't say anything and stayed with her quietly.

Outside the door, Su Sheng's eyes were slightly red, but at this moment his heart was settled. No matter whether his cousin was willing to leave with him or not, at least now, she had finally relaxed a little bit of the tension she had felt over the years. .

This is a good thing.

So, they left the yard silently, leaving room for the mother and son to talk.

The next day, Pei Zichen, who had never been to the palace before, suddenly brought his mother into the palace in imperial clothes to ask for an audience with His Majesty. Others thought something big had happened to the Pei family. As a result, outside the imperial study room, even the emperor who had been serving the emperor for decades was The old man Dezhong Eunuch was a little surprised. "Do you, mother and son, know what you are saying now?"

"Back to your majesty, I and my mother have been thinking about this matter for many years. I didn't inform your majesty before. It was entirely because Da Sui's foreign enemies were unclear. I have a responsibility. But now, since there is no trouble on the border, I should also be at home. I want to repay my mother for the many years of childbirth, so I beg your majesty to allow me to restore Bai Ding's body, so as to give my mother a chance to escape from the sea of ​​suffering."

The words and deeds of Pei Zifan, a good son, made the old emperor a little confused.

The King of Han asked for a reward, but he refused to approve it because he was seriously ill. When he heard the news about Pei Zifen's arrival, he thought he was asking for a reward. But it turned out to be such a request. For a moment, he really couldn't understand him. purpose.

Then he looked at Mrs. Pei, and then asked in a serious tone.

"Mrs. Pei, you are from a famous family of the Wu family in Xuanzhou. You should know your identity, mission and responsibilities. We have been living in peace for so many years. Why do you suddenly have to reconcile and let me tell the world? Do you have any feelings for Pei? Don’t you care about any kindness?”

There was some pressure from the emperor in her words, but Mrs. Pei entered the palace with the determination to die. Even if she couldn't get her wish today, she would die here in order to be a person far away from the Pei family in the next life. So he answered calmly.

"Your Majesty clearly knows that since my wife entered the Pei family at the age of eighteen, she has never done anything to harm the Pei family. However, Mr. Pei ignored the source of in-laws of the Pei and Wu families and insisted on pampering his concubine and destroying his wife at home. A few years ago , I have already moved out of the Pei family’s old house. Nothing major will happen after that. If I don’t enter the Pei family again, my husband and wife will What’s the point of being like us? In the past twenty years, I have lived longer in the Pei family than in the Wu family, and I have done my best. Now I come to ask for His Majesty’s grace, just to let myself have the rest. I don’t want to suffer from the cowardice of the Pei family in my life, please let your majesty make it happen.”

"Nonsense, your marriage was given by the late emperor. If you want to reconcile now, wouldn't it be a slap in the late emperor's face?"

"How dare I, my wife? When the late emperor granted me the marriage, it was for the good of the Pei family and the Wu family. However, although the marriage is destined by fate, the friendship cannot be cultivated. After so many years, I have no contact with Mr. Pei. I don’t want to cause any scandal to bring shame to the family, so I beg your Majesty to grant it.”

After Mrs. Pei said this, she kowtowed heavily several times.

Soon there were blood marks on his head. When Pei Zifeng saw his mother like this, he was even more determined to end the matter today, so he followed his mother and asked the old emperor.

"Your Majesty, you still remember that before I went to the Southern Tang Dynasty, you sent someone to deliver an imperial edict, saying that if I could conquer the Southern Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop, I would be a high-ranking official with generous salary and a bright future. I have now fulfilled my promise as a general, but I don't ask for these things. I only want my mother to be free from suffering, please allow me to do so!"

The old emperor felt very complicated at the moment. Of course he knew that Pei Zifeng gave up these things in exchange for a so-called peace and separation request, which was the best thing for him. However, it happened so suddenly, which made him a little suspicious.

Just when he was thinking about how to "decline", he suddenly heard Princess Qinghuan asking for an audience.

He put away the suspicion on his face, then there was a touch of endearment in his eyes, and then he spoke.

"Let the princess come in."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Soon, everyone saw Princess Qinghuan. She had her hands folded in front of her belly. The princess's uniform was large and solemn, so if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to tell that she was more than six months pregnant.
