My beloved wife is reborn, let's get divorced, Mr. Prime Minister

She turned her head to look in the direction of the uncomfortable feeling, but saw nothing.

"What's wrong, young lady?" asked the maid beside her.

Song Qingcheng shook her head, thinking that she was overthinking, "Nothing! Let's go."

The next day, Song Qingcheng gave the banknote to Wang Shuyi. Wang Shuyi knew that Song Qingcheng was planning for her, so she accepted it without saying a word.

For several days in a row, Li Yu indeed changed his usual behavior and often came to her yard. It seemed that after this incident, he had no money to do whatever he wanted, and the couple seemed to be much more harmonious than before.

Now that Wang Shuyi had money, she no longer had to rely on her mother-in-law and the first wife. She felt less depressed and looked much better than Li Yu.

That day, Li Yu came back with injuries. His wife asked him why, but he dared not say that he was beaten. He had to swallow his loss. From then on, he was short of money and could not go out to have affairs. He only went between the government office and the Duke's Mansion. After staying in the mansion for a long time, Duke Li was furious when he saw him. Whenever he saw someone, he would compare him with Pei Huai. The implication was that although they were both Duke's Mansion, the Li Mansion was inferior to the Pei Family in everything because of his lack of ambition.

Pei Fan was obviously a fool, but he gave birth to an extraordinary son, Pei Huaizhi. He not only passed the imperial examination, but also entered the Ministry of Revenue at a young age. Looking at this unfilial son, he spent all day with women. Duke Li was furious when he saw his second son smoking a cigarette, and he scolded him, "Look at Pei Huaizhi, look at you, stop being addicted to women, will you die?"

Li Yu did not dare to refute, and whispered, "Why do you always blame me? My brother has not made any achievements, has he?"

"What are you talking about, you unfilial son?" He wanted to take action after he got down the stairs.

Li Yu stiffened his neck, looking very unconvinced.

Duke Li became more and more angry and didn't want to see his cowardly look anymore, so he threw his sleeves and left, as if he didn't care.

Li Yu was very upset with Duke Li and went to Liu Xiaoniang's place in the evening, where he had a hysterical outburst on the bed.

Liu Xiaoniang was a thin horse from Yangzhou, and she made Li Yu happy. She thought she could get some reward from Li Yu as usual, but she didn't expect that after serving Li Yu all night and having a lot of fun, Li Yu did not give her anything at all. Instead, he hugged her and said with a satisfied look: "I know that Liu'er is the most considerate, and I like Liu'er the most."

Seeing that she had gained nothing, although she leaned softly in Li Yu's arms, Liu Xiaoniang could not help rolling her eyes in her heart. She was very dissatisfied with Li Yu for not expressing anything this time. She knew in her heart that this man's words were a liar, so she just raised her head and maintained a submissive and flattering smile. Even though she was unwilling in her heart, she still had to coax this man on the surface.

Li Yu felt much more relieved holding the soft and fragrant girl in his arms.

It was late spring and the weather was gradually getting warmer, but spring is windy and the bead curtains were jingling in the wind.

The people in the room were not disturbed at all. Shuqi lifted the bead curtain with a complicated expression and entered the inner room.

"Find out?" Pei Huaizhi was buried in a pile of documents in the study. He didn't look up when he heard the noise. The sound was like a cold spring hitting a stone wall, but it had a feeling of still water flowing, making it hard to figure out what was going on.

"Reporting to the Third Master, we have found out that the two men were the ones who escaped from the Black Wind Village. Madam rescued them and transformed them into the Longmen Escort Agency. Now they have some reputation in the Tongzhou area."

Pei Huaizhi's eyes flickered, and he bent his fingers with excellent bone structure and tapped lightly on the desk in front of him.

The crisp knocking sounds made people feel panic for no reason.

Shuqi paused and couldn't help thinking, how could a young lady from an official family like the Madam get involved with bandits? The master would not sacrifice his own relatives for the sake of justice and directly hand the person over to the Ministry of Justice.

"Go on," Pei Huaizhi reminded when he saw the person was hesitant in speaking.

"Madam found a couple and asked someone to blackmail the second son of the Li family! She also beat him up." Shuqi told Pei Huaizhi the whole story.

He was also really shocked when he first heard it. The lady looked weak, gentle and virtuous, how could she do such a bold thing? Not to mention that the second son Li was from the Duke's Mansion and was an official appointed by the court. Beating an official appointed by the court was a serious crime of treason. Although Li Yu was an idle position in the Ministry of Rites, he was still an official appointed by the court. If outsiders knew about this, it would probably implicate the master. Thinking of this, he actually felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet. What should he do?

"Master, we can't keep those two alive, otherwise..." Shuqi made a killing gesture. As long as those two souls returned to heaven, there would be no evidence, and the investigation would definitely not lead to Madam.

"He's not a quiet one either. He's obviously a little fox, but he has to pretend to be a cat in front of me. Ha, it's quite interesting."

Song Qingcheng had done something extremely treasonous, but Pei Huaizhi didn't take it to heart at all, and even had a hint of pride on his face. Shuqi was completely confused, but Pei Huaizhi didn't seem to care, which put his worries at ease.

"Then Li Yu wouldn't dare! He flirted with someone else's sister. As his brother, he would just teach this scoundrel a lesson. We didn't know he was the son of Li family, nor did we know he was an official appointed by the court. How could he be guilty of treason by beating an official appointed by the court?" She must have seen this point clearly.

"what?"

After Pei Huaizhi said this, Shuqi understood everything. Madam actually had such a strategy.

Pei Huaizhi went over the matter in his mind, but he always felt that something was wrong. How could Song Qingcheng accurately judge that Li Yu would become immoral after drinking and flirt with a decent woman?

"She sent someone to keep an eye on Li Yu before!"

"Never!"

There was no prior planning, but the tactics of luring the enemy into a trap were used. It seemed as if they had expected Li Yu to do this. He was a little curious about the key point. "Send someone to keep an eye on her in secret."

He was not disgusted by what Song Qingcheng did, but felt very pleased. She was indeed a descendant of a general. He was not worried that she would be bullied. It was good enough that she did not bully others.

In late spring, when flowers were in full bloom, the Empress Dowager held a banquet to appreciate the flowers. Pei Huaizhi was favored, and the Pei family members were naturally among them. The people of the Pei Mansion were filled with joy since they received the invitation. This was a great honor.

Song Qingcheng was naturally among them. The palace was a place of controversy, and Song Qingcheng did not want to go there, but Gong Yi had already issued the order, so he had no right to refuse.

"Master, look at this wide-sleeved flowing fairy dress, it is perfect for going to the palace for a banquet. When you wear it, no one can compare to you," Qiuyue held the light blue dress and gestured on Song Qingcheng.

Qiuyue, what you said is not right. Chunyu placed a box of jewelry on the dressing table and said, "With the master's looks, even if she wears a cloth skirt and a thorny hairpin, others can't compare to her."

Qiuyue did not say any compliments, just because Song Qingcheng's appearance was indeed impeccable, with a slender and tall figure, and a face that was charming but not vulgar, like a peony blooming in spring. She just stood there quietly, and was the most dazzling existence.

In order to enter the palace, the maids each prepared the necessary items.

Song Qingcheng stood up and touched her wide-sleeved fairy skirt. The skirt was lined with gold thread, shining brightly, making her eyes feel dazed. She was frugal in her previous life, so she was reluctant to wear such a nice dress. Even if she had such clothes, she would ask someone to exchange them for silver and keep them somewhere for emergency use.
