Several palace maids and eunuchs helped Shen Mi up from the couch, and left the side hall with Prime Minister Ji and Pei Rou.

After leaving the side hall, Pei Rou was still uneasy.

Entering the palace today was truly a thrilling experience.

If Yu Zian had not resorted to this desperate measure, I'm afraid this child would have really fallen into this vicious hand.

She suddenly remembered that many years ago, Emperor Li asked her to enter the palace alone late at night and wanted to do something indecent to her.

Just because she is Pei Wan's sister and looks a bit like Pei Wan.

At that time, Prime Minister Ji lied that he had something important to do and brought the queen with him, which saved her from danger.

Since then, Emperor Li has been extremely disgusted with her.

She couldn't understand it. It was obvious that Pei Wan was killed by the white silk he personally gave her.

It was clearly because of him that the Pei family was wiped out and they were charged with treason and regicide.

Why can't this dog emperor let go of the dead Pei Wan?

In the carriage, Prime Minister Ji wiped the sweat from his forehead and took out a bottle from his sleeve.

Some bloodstains could be vaguely seen on the black sleeves.

"Today was a close call."

"That dog emperor is moody and unpredictable. He is truly... licentious and immoral."

Pei Rou gently hugged Shen Mi, removed her veil, and removed the fake scar on her face.

Looking at the person in my arms with heartache.

"After returning, let Huaichu and Mi'er go to Jingzhou overnight."

"After she gives birth to the baby, we will take her back in three years."

Prime Minister Ji said, "That's fine."

"The hatred of the entire Pei family and the good reputation of General Pei must be cleared eventually."

"Now that His Highness is still alive, we are waiting for the day when we can wash the Imperial City with blood."

royal palace.

After Prime Minister Ji and Pei Rou left, the Queen looked at Emperor Li with a sullen expression.

"Your Majesty, why would you ever think of taking...that woman as your concubine?"

"Her face is ruined like this, you..."

Emperor Li turned his head and glared at Empress Li fiercely.

"Do you want to take care of my business?"

"When Pei Wan died, I personally gave her the white silk."

"I hate her, but after all these years, I still can't forget her."

The queen snorted coldly: "Can't forget?"

"If Your Majesty really cared about her, why would he personally give her the white silk, and why would he let all the members of the Pei family die out?"

"Your Majesty loves the country more than beauties."

Li Di's eyes were gloomy. "Did you really gouge out the eyes of Pei Wan's child and throw him into a mass grave?"

"I don't have it!"

"Still lying!" Li Di said angrily

"Even if you send her away, even if you let her die on her own, there is no need to gouge out her eyes."

"Your Majesty, I really don't have any."

"It was Pei Rou who slandered me. I swear to heaven."

"That child was taken away by Jiang Xuan."

"What's more, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory calculated that the child was the star of disaster for our country and would hinder the future of our Jinyue. Naturally, he could not survive."

"Now that she has died in Dayan, isn't that exactly what Your Majesty wants?"

Emperor Li sat on the chair, narrowed his eyes slightly, and glared at the queen fiercely.

The Queen continued, "Pei Wan betrayed Your Majesty."

"It's been so many years, but Your Majesty still can't let her go."

"Now, even Pei Rou's daughter is not spared."

"If Your Majesty continues like this, I'm afraid that sooner or later the ministers in the court will rebel."

Emperor Li snorted coldly: "Don't mind what I do."

He stood up from his chair.

"I originally thought that the child was still alive."

"I didn't expect that he really died in Yanjing."

"She is unlucky, I guess."

After saying this, Emperor Li walked out of the bedroom with the palace maids and eunuchs.

In the Liguo Palace, inside the Jingyang Palace, there came the melodious sound of a piano.

The lingering sound reached the ears of the people in Jingyang Palace.

The queen, wearing a golden phoenix robe, walked towards the Jingyang Palace with several palace maids.

In the inner room, sat a young girl wearing an embroidered hibiscus silk dress.

The girl was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with delicate features and skin as white as a freshly peeled egg.

When she heard footsteps outside the door, the sound of her piano became much quieter.

This person was none other than the eldest princess Luo Jinyue.

When Luo Jinyue saw the queen coming, she put down the zither in her hand and looked up at the queen.

"Mother, is that her?"

The Queen said: "No."

"That woman's face is ruined, and it must have disgusted your father to death."

"Perhaps, she is really Prime Minister Ji's daughter."

"I have passed the blood test to your father and Prime Minister Ji. I am indeed Prime Minister Ji's biological son, not your father's blood."

"Now, you can rest assured that no one dares to hinder your progress."

Luo Jinyue smiled indifferently, picked up the cup of hot tea beside the piano, and took a sip.

"I heard that the King Rui of Dayan was imprisoned in a temple by the Emperor."

"Pei Wan's daughter also died in the fire, but my daughter always feels that this matter is not simple."

The queen sat on the chair, her eyes changing slightly.

"Jin Yue, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Luo Jinyue said: "Mother, don't be afraid of ten thousand but be prepared for the worst."

"It is better to kill a hundred people by mistake than to let one person go."

"Prime Minister Ji and his wife are so eager to send their daughter away. Is there something fishy going on?"

"Why not send some people to kill them along the way and put an end to the trouble forever."

As soon as Luo Jinyue finished speaking, the Queen seemed to think it made sense.

Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.

She smiled and said, "Our Jin Yue is still very thoughtful."

"You are now a blessing to our country, respected by all the people."

"Your reputation was earned by your mother with great difficulty."

"Mother, how can you let others hinder your future?"

"Anyone who stands in the way must die."

"Mother, do as you say."

Ji family.

When Prime Minister Ji and Pei Rou returned to the Ji family, it was already sunset.

As soon as the two arrived at the front hall, Yu Zian came over.

"Mother, what's wrong?"

Pei Rou took a deep breath: "It was a close call, thanks to the solution you came up with."

"Otherwise, Mi'er will really be left in the palace."

"Huaian, your majesty may not have any doubts."

"But the queen must have become suspicious."

"Pack your things quickly and leave for Jingzhou tonight."

"Three years later, mother will send someone to take you back to the Ji family."

Pei Rou looked at Shen Mi in the carriage with a worried look on her face.

"She is pregnant, so don't let anything go wrong."

Yu Zian nodded, "Yes, mother."

nightfall.

There were about eight or nine carriages parked in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The style of the carriage and the clothes worn by the coachman were all changed to be the same.

At midnight, horse-drawn carriages set out from Ji Mansion one after another, heading in the southeast, northwest, and northeast directions.

At the same time, a group of men in black holding long knives also followed the carriages.

At Chou time, the small door on the west side of the Prime Minister's Mansion opened.

Yu Zi'an, along with Ziying, Siqin and a few other guards, sneaked out from the west gate, got on two extremely inconspicuous carriages, and headed straight for Jingzhou.

Prime Minister Ji and Pei Rou stood inside the door, looking at the carriage going away, feeling a little lonely.

Pei Rou sighed and said, "I just hope Chu'er and Mi'er can arrive in Jingzhou safely."

"God bless, these two children must be safe."

Prime Minister Ji reached out and supported Pei Rou.

"Madam is very thoughtful. Leave from the west door."

Pei Rou's face was calm: "I'm afraid the Queen's people will come to nothing."

"Three years later, the Pei family should pay back their blood debt."
