After rebirth, I became a national teacher

Compared to the past, he subconsciously became more patient and gentle towards Zhang.

"It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Do you understand?"

Zhang was not stupid. After thinking for a moment, she understood the key and nodded vigorously:

"I understand! A little impatience can ruin a big plan. From now on, I will control everyone in the Marquis' Mansion and never give anyone a handle to attack the Marquis' Mansion!"

"If I am released from confinement one day, I will personally go to Cihang Temple to apologize immediately, and I will also do more good deeds in the future to restore the reputation of the Bo Mansion!"

This time, the reason why their Jingnan Marquis' Mansion suffered such a big setback was because of His Majesty's suspicion.

As a relative by marriage, you should act with caution in the future.

Otherwise, no one can say whether Emperor Yong'an would follow the example of Emperor Wu of Han and directly eliminate the prince's biological mother and her maternal family power to prevent the harm caused by external relatives.

Pei Xiao looked at her approvingly:

"Madam is indeed smart."

*

The two of them were reassured, but they didn't remember how difficult the recent days were for Pei Xuan, who was studying away from home.

Originally, Pei Xuan was extremely talented, had good grades in the academy, and was the eldest son of Marquis Jingnan, who held a large number of troops. He was also a prominent figure in the academy.

Later, Pei Jin got a strange disease, and everyone said that he had no hope of inheriting the title. It was likely that the title of the Pei Mansion would fall to Pei Xuan, the second young master.

Pei Xuan became more and more popular in the academy.

Considering Pei Xiao's thoughts, Pei Xuan naturally did not dare to admit the rumors that the so-called title would fall on him, but he was secretly proud of his current status.

Of course, where there are admirers of him, there are naturally enemies who dislike him.

These people were the legitimate sons of some noble families in Nandu City, and they disliked illegitimate sons like him who might pose a threat to the legitimate sons.

Now that she saw him so successful, she felt like there was something wrong with him. She would often mock Pei Xuan by saying "a maid gave birth to a son" or "a maid gave birth to a son".

This was the only thing Pei Xuan could not refute, and he could only suffer defeat.

Every time this happened, he would hate his mean and selfish mother in his heart.

If she was willing to commit suicide to atone her sins, he would have been the legitimate son long ago. How could he have endured so much ridicule from these people?

House seemingly endless rain.

He had just returned to the academy after a month-long vacation that day when he heard those foul-mouthed enemies running up to him and gloatingly saying:

"Oh, why is this son of a sinner still here? Aren't there any officials here to arrest him and put him in prison?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Who is the son of a sinner?"

Pei Xuan was furious.

The other party then told him the news that his father had been dismissed from his post, demoted and imprisoned in the entire government.

Pei Xuan felt like he was struck by a bolt from the blue.

Why was he suddenly imprisoned? What happened?

Looking at the malicious eyes of his enemies, Pei Xuan didn't dare to stay in the academy any longer, for fear that they would report him to the government and arrest him.

So he immediately asked for leave from the dean, saying that he wanted to go back home to take a look.

Then he left the academy with the servant boy who accompanied him in studying.

After returning to the city and arriving outside the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion, I saw the guards and the seal on the gate from a distance.

It was obvious that his enemies had not lied to him and the Marquis' Mansion was truly convicted!

Confinement with no time limit, isn't that life imprisonment?

He is still so young, he must not be caught and imprisoned, losing his freedom forever.

Fearing that he would be discovered and taken back to the mansion, Pei Xuan did not dare to stay in Nandu City for too long. He immediately left the city with his servant and found an inn in a small county on the outskirts of the city to stay temporarily.

After living there for a month, he sent his servant out several times to inquire about the news. It seemed that the government had not posted any notice to arrest him. He also heard that the imperial envoy had already left Nando, so he felt relieved.

However, new problems soon emerged.

He had been eating and sleeping in the inn, and refused to compromise, always staying in the best rooms. Now, a month had passed, and not only had the deposit he had paid been completely used up, he also owed the inn several days' room fees.

Pei Xiao was nearly kicked out of his job because he couldn’t come up with the money.

Fortunately, he used the jade pendant on his body to pay the room fee in time.

In the end, all that was left of his body was a golden crown and two sets of clothes that were still worth a little money.

However, they were all spring clothes, and I had worn them over and over for a month. I hadn’t washed and cared for them properly, so they were very worn out and I couldn’t sell them for any price.

Even if you pawn everything, you'll only get one or two taels of silver.

But what should he wear? He can't wear cloth or linen like the common people.

Therefore, he, a son of a marquis, had less than thirty taels of silver left in his total assets.

If we continue like this, we will soon run out of money.

He didn't dare go back to the Marquis' Mansion. It was also very dangerous for a child to stay in those low-end inns. He was actually in a situation where he had nowhere to go!

After much thought, he finally came up with a fairly suitable place -

That is Jingci Temple!

His biological mother had been sent here to serve her sentence.

If he was not caught and brought back, his biological mother should not have been caught and brought back to the Marquis' Mansion either.

He could go to her.

Although the conditions will be a bit difficult, at least there will be no worries about food and accommodation, which is safer than wandering around for a long time.

Moreover, his biological mother always liked to save money to please him.

I believe that if he goes, his biological mother will do her best to let him live a good life.

In this way, he could save all his remaining money and slowly make plans for the future.
