The beauty is delicate and soft, and he madly criticizes the powerful officials for taking her as th

Xu Mingyue's teeth were chattering. She had waited for so long and just wanted to marry King Wei.

It is clear that when Pei Xu was betrothed to the Cui family for King Wei, he verbally agreed that the Xu family would have a place as a concubine in the future.

Pei Shu saw her unconvinced look and guessed what she was thinking.

Listening to the sound of water in her ears, she sneered: "If it was my eldest brother who ordered me today -"

Xu Mingyue didn't know where she got the strength, she raised her head with all her strength and choked on the water: "Your Highness, an upright and upright gentleman, would not do such a thing."

She didn't believe the Queen's instigation. When the King of Wei was young at a banquet, he would alienate officials and family members without breaking the rules, so why did he argue with a woman over a few words.

Pei Shu's hand relaxed and she suddenly laughed. She looked at the water stains on the ground and slowly chewed these words in her heart.

Suddenly she didn't want to continue tossing Xu Mingyue with the basin. Her mind was so bad that she decided to forget it.

The palace servants were ordered to come over and change Xu Mingyue into clean and gorgeous palace clothes. She dressed up and looked like there was no trace of abuse.

Pei Shu took out a long and sharp golden hairpin and slowly passed it across her throat.

The cold touch feels like a knife blade against your skin.

"Don't say anything you shouldn't say in the future, otherwise, I will use this hairpin to slit your throat bit by bit."

"Just like this." Pei Shu said, slowly pressing the gold hairpin against her shoulder, causing a drop of blood to ooze out, and then personally put the blood-stained gold hairpin on her.

After sending the person away, Pei Shu held her stomach and asked the palace people to call Zhao Heng.

A man in regular clothes walked into the hall and stood three steps away from her.

In these days, Pei Shu came to see him during the day for the first time.

"Xiao Shu, do you want to call the imperial doctor?"

"Xu Youzhen's daughter just bumped into me, causing me to have fetal contractions. Zhao Heng, I have a stomachache."

Pei Shu broke into a cold sweat, her lips were pale, and she lowered her head to speak. Her tone was completely different from the cold and disgusted tone of the previous days, as if she was in great pain.

Zhao Heng couldn't help but stepped forward to help her, his voice trembling: "Why didn't I know when you were pregnant?"

He turned his head and said to the palace attendant on the side: "Go and call the imperial doctor quickly. I will not return to Zichen Palace today."

"I can teach the imperial doctor myself." Pei Shu squeezed Zhao Heng's forearm tightly with her fingers, "You order her to be punished and let her go to the temple to meditate and pray for me."

Pei Shu's voice was slow and full of contempt, "The puppet emperor is also the emperor, how can he turn a blind eye when his wife is humiliated?"

"Xiao Shu, the decree will be stopped before it leaves the palace."

"You must have a way." With tears in her eyes, Pei Shu held Zhao Heng's hand tightly and put it close to her abdomen, "You touch this child, don't you like him?"

Zhao Heng's face was not much prettier than Pei Shu's. His face was as white as paper and he ordered someone to get paper, pen and seal.

The eunuch beside the Queen Mother helped him take the edict out of the palace and deliver it to the Xu Mansion.

Seeing him sending the edict out, Pei Shu's face gradually improved and she seemed to no longer feel any pain.

Zhao Heng was silent for a moment, without any surprise, he just smiled and said, "Xiao Shu is lying to me again."

"Are you testing whether I can contact someone outside the palace?"

"No." Pei Shu shook her head, "I already know this path."

The eunuch who brought the edict to the Xu Mansion was originally from the Pei family.

"That's it." He raised his head and sighed, "It's not surprising, I just said how could the King of Wei be so secretive as to be sparse."

Pei Shu said indifferently: "That's because I'm afraid that if you lose hope, it will cause trouble."

Zhao Heng suddenly smiled and said with a complex expression: "No, I will issue the abdication edict honestly."

Dazhou's energy had been exhausted decades ago, and it was useless for him to struggle any longer.

Pingyang Hou's people impeached Xu Youzhen every day, and every piece of evidence was secret and secret that only his own family knew.

Xu Youzhen was so angry that she threw things at home and asked her wife who she had talked to about this. Knowing that Wei Ting had found solid evidence of his bribery, she planned to go to the study to write an apology.

But I saw someone put a secret letter on the desk. When I opened it, I almost vomited blood. He wanted to divorce his wife on the grounds of Qi Chuzhong's fornication. Everyone in Chang'an knew about it.

Pingyang Marquis was sitting at home when he suddenly heard that the teahouse had been smashed. He was not surprised. He thought he could read Xu Youzhen's book tomorrow.

The Xu family is full of peace and harmony.

Xianghe arrived at Chang'an, where all the civil and military officials and the officials from the thirteen states gathered in the capital, and said to Zhao Heng in the court hall: "Your Majesty, the king of Wei has made great contributions to the world, and his virtue has been admired by thousands of families. Since ancient times, emperors have had different surnames, and the virtuous have always lived there." Of."

In front of all the ministers, the emperor asked the eunuchs to read over the abdication edict that Yuan Qi had forced him to write.

Pei Zhi looked indifferent and refused: "It is my duty to dedicate myself to the great Zhou Dynasty. How can I compare myself to Shun Yu and ask Your Majesty to withdraw his decree?"

Zhao Heng looked calm as he watched the generals from Fu Xun to Zhang Ji, and the civil servants from Yuan Qi to Li Wei, stand up one by one to persuade the King of Wei to accept.

After going to court, as soon as Pei Zhi returned to his residence, he asked the servant beside him: "Where is the princess now?"

"My lord, the queen has just summoned the princess into the palace."

Pei Zhi paused and then nodded. Pei Shu did a good job last time. He agreed to the queen's request and no one stopped her from summoning her.

The moment Yu Tingwan stepped into the greenhouse hall, he was shocked by the woman in front of him and quickly helped her into the inner hall.

"Why does the empress look so ugly?" Yu Tingwan frowned and planned to ask the palace maid on the side to call the imperial doctor.

"No need."

Pei Shu raised her hand to stop him. This was a mental illness. Her emotional ups and downs would inevitably affect her body. The last time she felt uncomfortable in front of Zhao Heng was not a lie.

It's just that she is used to being uncomfortable and seems to be able to relax easily.

"Sister-in-law, I want to ask you something."

"Begging me?" Yu Tingwan was stunned. Pei Shu could ask her for anything, but looking at the appearance of the person in front of her, she still nodded and said, "My queen, just say it."

"You don't have to call me empress, I won't be queen for long." Pei Shu said with a smile, "Just call me Xiao Shu. When I was young, my eldest brother also called me the same name."

Yu Tingwan saw that she looked defeated even though she was still young. He felt inexplicably nervous and said, "Okay."

"After the child in my belly is born, my eldest sister-in-law will help me save his life."

"When did you have a child?" Yu Tingwan's eyes suddenly widened.

"It's only been two months." Pei Shu lowered her eyes, "I didn't want him, but I was afraid that my elder brother would... kill him."

Pei Shu did not seek help from her eldest brother, but instead tried her best to meet her eldest sister-in-law just for this matter.

In her eyes, her eldest brother's promise was as untrustworthy as her own tears.

But as long as Yu Tingwan promised her, he would work hard to fulfill his promise.

"He won't."

Based on Yu Tingwan's understanding of Pei Zhi, surveillance and fear were essential, but it would not kill him. Instead, it would make him a wealthy idler.

When the king of Wei usurped the throne, he was willing to make three concessions and let the ministers use the incident of Shun and Yu as a metaphor for him to abolish the Zhou Dynasty and establish himself on his own. How could he kill the prince of the previous dynasty and make the previous performance fall short?

"Sister-in-law, I know he doesn't bother to kill all babies, but he always thinks about what if."

Pei Shu felt uneasy, she held Yu Tingwan's hand tightly, her face turned pale, and she said in a very sincere voice: "If you promise me, sister-in-law, if you are in trouble in this life, I will help you even if I die. "
