It was already late at night when Yu Wenrui returned to the Temple of Light, and the lights in every house were dimmed.

The candles in the bedroom had already been extinguished, Yu Wenrui gently opened the door, tiptoed in, and closed the door behind his back.

"You're back……"

In the darkness, Nan Rongyue's voice suddenly sounded, startling Yu Wenrui.

"So you haven't fallen asleep yet." In the blur, there was a rustling sound, and Yu Wenrui vaguely saw Nan Rongyue sitting up straight.

"Light up the lamp." Nan Rongyue said.

Yu Wenrui lit the candle as she said, and after her eyes re-adjusted to the light, she realized that Nan Rongyue was staring at her.

"Sit down." Nan Rongyue pointed to the chair beside the table.

Yu Wenrui nodded and sat down.

"Must the Pei family die?" Nan Rongyue asked.

Yu Wenrui's style of doing things is too cruel and ruthless, she actually doesn't like it, but Nan Rongyue is also quite helpless, while pampering her, she is also quite entangled in her heart.

Yu Wenrui said: "Cutting the grass does not remove the roots, and the spring breeze blows and it will regenerate."

At that time, she brought people into Pei's house and defeated them with absolute force. Even Pei Qing and Pei Nian, they didn't know who killed them until their death, and they died with regret.

Then, she ordered people to move the five corpses out of 310 and spread them all over the street, and lit the Pei mansion again. The fierce and powerful flames surrounded the entire Pei mansion, together with the wealth, prestige, honor and disgrace accumulated by the Pei family for decades. Burn them all together.

The fire burned all night, and the next morning, the oppressed people rushed to the street outside Pei's mansion, punching and kicking the unrecognizable corpses of the Pei family, smashing stones, whipping the corpses, and using all means. Extremely, this is enough to show the common people's hatred for the Pei family.

The people from the government arrived late, and only after the people were evacuated did they count and remove the corpses.

Domineering before death, not safe after death, the Pei family was hateful in life, and the ending is destined to be sad.

Nan Rongyue also knew a thing or two about the general situation. I have to say that Yu Wenrui did too much.

She sighed: "They have already committed the death crime of treason, and they can be handed over to the law for judgment."

"It's too troublesome. Waiting for a complete set of judgments to be issued. I don't know if I have to wait until the year of the monkey. There are serious crimes against the nine clans on both sides. It's better to deal with them first."

Nan Rongyue shook her head and reprimanded lightly: "Ignore the law and be free and undisciplined."

Although the Pei family has committed a lot of crimes and harmed the common people, even if they were killed with a stick a thousand times, it would not be enough for the common people to complain. Nan Rongyue also hated this family deeply. She has always adhered to the code of conduct of "doing things according to the law", and does not like Yu Wenrui's misbehavior .

But thinking that Yu Wenrui had been poisoned by Empress Pei since his mother's womb, and was even more bullied in the palace, Nan Rongyue's partiality was ready to move.It can be said that Yu Wenrui will become what he is today, thanks to the Pei family's "indispensible contribution".

Thinking of this, Nan Rongyue couldn't get angry at all, and couldn't bear to blame Yu Wenrui at all.

Nan Rongyue warned: "You must abide by the law in the future." Although she would say this every time after the incident.

Yu Wenrui said solemnly: "I will." She was serious on the face, but she was quite perfunctory in her heart, because she knew that Nan Rongyue would not really blame her.

Nan Rongyue rolled her eyes and continued to the next topic.

"The emperor's soldiers and horses are already on the military demarcation line. What are you going to do next?"

Yu Wenrui said secretly: "Pretend to be cowardly!"

Nan Rongyue's eyes widened in doubt.

"Xizuo has passed the false news to the emperor that 'we are going to attack Xizhou next', so the emperor will send troops to suppress the border in advance, under the banner of 'killing the rebels, respecting the king and destroying the barbarians', in case the troops from Dongzhou attack first Enter Xizhou."

Nan Rongyue nodded and said, "Continue."

Yu Wenrui poured a glass of water and handed it to Nan Rongyue, and sat down on the bed.

She said innocently and purely: "But in fact, Dongzhou did nothing. The people of Dongzhou were only forced to rebel against the Pei family. It was always 'public opinion and justice' that brought down the Pei family. This is not Dongzhou's fault. And The war has just ended, and everything is waiting to be done, and Dongzhou's original intention is to settle down first and recuperate, rather than continue to fight."

Nan Rongyue took a sip of water and said silently in her heart: Yu Wenrui is probably the only one who can rationalize the mutiny and uprising, this shameless one.

Yu Wenrui said righteously: "But the emperor 'deeply loves' Empress Pei, and is also an in-law of the Pei family, so of course he will favor Yu Wenxun and the Pei family. 'To take the lead in provoking war and sending troops to provoke when the clan is exterminated is obviously a disregard for public opinion and the life and death of the common people!"

"Dongzhou was wronged, and the people were even more wronged. They had no choice but to raise the banner of justice and continue to resist the emperor's tyranny. But Dongzhou never wanted to fight, but only wanted stability and peace."

Nan Rongyue understood her words and added: "At this time, Guangming Temple and Xizhou, which have always maintained neutrality, stood up and suggested that the two sides remain calm, do not resort to violence, and resolve the issue peacefully through negotiation and dialogue."

A shrewd and wise light flashed in Yu Wenrui's eyes, "The emperor had no choice but to accept this suggestion. If he didn't accept it, he would be making an enemy of the people. At this time, the weak Dongzhou took the opportunity to put forward a 'reasonable' opinion. The emperor agrees or not."

Nan Rongyue looked at Yu Wenrui's cunning and cunning expression, and laughed out loud with a puff, sighing secretly that the three princesses were clever.

……

In fact, the emperor supported Nan Rongyue as a saint at the beginning, and in order to avoid the saint's arbitrariness, he made all preparations.

In addition to the saint, there are two priests and twelve Templar knights in the upper echelons of the Temple of Light. Among them, one priest and six Templar knights belong to the emperor. Half of the people will stop the saint from doing whatever she wants.

At first, when Nan Rongyue first came to the Guangming Temple, her foundation was not stable, and she could do nothing. After she gained a firm foothold, in order to better help Yu Wenrui, she began to weaken the emperor's power in the Guangming Temple.

It was not difficult for Nan Rongyue to find a famous person to send the emperor's people out to perform missions and stay away from the Guangming Temple. Moreover, Yu Wengan was busy fighting with the Pei family during those days, so he didn't have the time to take care of it. The internal struggle of the Temple of Light.

Nan Rongyue learned the emperor's trade-off technique ten to ten, and since then, the Guangming Temple has been under Nan Rongyue's control, and it was too late for the emperor to react.

So much so that later when Nan Rongyue set a precedent to succeed the saintess, there were always maids discussing quietly behind her back.

——This lady saint seems to be gentle and weak, but in fact she is tough and strong.

She firmly held the power in her own hands, and helped her solve many troubles in Yu Wenrui's subsequent actions, which is really indispensable.

Three days later, the imperial palace, the imperial study.

When the emperor received some news, he realized something later, and he fell into Dongzhou's trap!

This matter started with the denunciation of the emperor after the refugees from Gyeonggi returned to Dongzhou.

The suffering refugees were neglected in Gyeonggi, and the emperor refused to rescue them at all, and even refused to let them enter the city gate.However, many people died of starvation within a few days, and the refugees who lost their loved ones hated the emperor's indifference, and complained for a while.

At this time, someone spread the news that all this was due to the Pei family, and the emperor was an in-law of the Pei family, so it was normal to favor the Pei family and refuse to accept refugees.

But in fact, few people knew how bad the relationship between the Pei family and the emperor was. The common people did not get inside information, and were dazzled by resentment, so they believed the rumors to be true.

In this way, it is inconvenient for the emperor to disclose the secrets of the royal family and the rebellion of the Pei family, and it is even more difficult to tell.

Until Pei's family was wiped out, after the battle in Dongzhou, the newly appointed governor loved and sympathized with the people, and quickly ordered to send troops to Gyeonggi and Xizhou to bring the refugees back.

Unexpectedly, the dividing line between the Eastern and Western states was completely surrounded by the Gyeonggi army, and the soldiers and horses of the Eastern state were trapped, unable to get out at all, and there was no way to take the refugees home.

When the news spread, the entire Dongzhou was furious, and the people held banners and came to the streets in a mighty way, protesting against the emperor's unscrupulousness.

However, in a few days, news was flying all over the sky, not only in Dongzhou, but also in Gyeonggi and Xizhou. There were many doubts about the emperor.

When the emperor's table was filled with letters of advice, he suddenly realized that it was false to attack Xizhou, and it was true to let the emperor send troops to suppress the border, and he was plotted against by Dongzhou!

But the matter was beyond his control, tens of thousands of eyes in the whole continent were watching his every move, and the emperor was very anxious.

This is all right, if the battle cannot be won, the land cannot be divided, and my position is in jeopardy instead!

Under the pressure of public opinion, the emperor invited Jiang Liumu and Nan Rongyue to the imperial study.

The emperor looked kindly and said, "Master Jiangzhou, Holy Maiden, what's your suggestion on this matter?"

In fact, he secretly gritted his teeth, secretly hating these two people who know how to wait and see, and put on a leisurely attitude that has nothing to do with him, and the emperor thinks that he is entangled in many things, so he must drag these two people into the water , must not let them pick clean.

Nan Rongyue calmly said: "I suggest that Your Majesty withdraw troops immediately to appease the emotions of the refugees in Gyeonggi, and then send someone to send them back to Dongzhou safe and sound, and finally apologize to the people."

"Impossible!" The emperor immediately refused.

He is today, how can he condescend to do these degrading things and ask him to apologize to those untouchables?dream!

Nan Rongyue raised her eyebrows and stopped talking.

Yuwengan could only pin all his hopes on Jiang Liumu, and he looked at him eagerly.

Jiang Liumu stroked his chin and said, "Your Majesty really doesn't want to put down your body and apologize?"

The emperor nodded without thinking.

Jiang Liumu asked him again: "Then, is Your Majesty willing to compromise?"

Yu Wengan thought for a moment and said: "As long as I don't need to apologize, it is not difficult to make concessions."

In his opinion, apologizing to the people is tantamount to admitting that he was wrong, but the emperor had a glorious life and was also pretentious, so how could he allow himself to have any stains during his reign?

He wants to become an emperor through the ages, a person who will be praised and admired by future generations. Asking him to apologize and admit his mistakes is like killing him, so he will never agree.

Jiang Liumu said: "Then let's negotiate with Dongzhou. Your Majesty might as well take a step back and listen to their demands first!"

The emperor's fingers clenched tightly, and it took a long time for him to let go.

"Okay, let's do it." He compromised.
