After rebirth, I became a national teacher

The reason why Pei Xuan came to pay his respects was not because he was filial to Zhang.

But in order to torture him, Zhang forced him to come and pay his respects twice a day.

As soon as he came over, he saw that the main hall was quiet and there was no maid serving.

Even if Pei Xiao was in the mansion, he couldn't protect him now. He didn't dare to neglect Zhang's request and didn't dare to be late for paying his respects.

He hurried to the main house, and then heard those extraordinary words.

The stepmother actually wanted to run away with her own son!

Pei Xuan was not a fool, and he immediately realized:

For someone with a strong background like my stepmother to abandon her home and flee, it must be a devastating event.

Thinking of the last time he was confined in the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion, Pei Xuan shuddered and turned around and left without hesitation.

I had no time to pack anything, nor did I care that it was almost dusk.

He immediately returned to his yard, put the bag of gold ingots his father had just given him into his arms, and immediately found the nearest side door and ran out.

With a gold ingot as the price, he successfully bribed the gatekeeper and left the mansion.

Not long after leaving the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion, we heard the sound of horse hooves and footsteps coming from the front.

Many imperial guards were rushing towards the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion.

Pei Xuan was so frightened that his heart was beating like a drum. He quickly dodged under the eaves and lowered his head so that no one could see his face.

The imperial guards whizzed past him and soon arrived outside the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion, surrounding the entire main gate and side door.

Pei Xuan didn't dare to look any further and quickly left the street.

At the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion, Haitang took Hun'er and packed up a little while waiting for the carriage. They were a little later than Pei Xuan when he left, and unfortunately they were blocked as soon as they walked out of the mansion.

When Zhang arrived at the treasury, she found that all the silver bills and gold were missing, and she was completely disappointed.

Only she and Pei Xiao have the key to the box where the banknotes are kept.

It goes without saying who took the money.

So, that bastard Pei Xiao actually abandoned the mother and son and ran away!

Zhang was shocked, angry, hateful and afraid.

After so many years of love as husband and wife, it would have been fine if he didn't take them and their child with him when he ran away, but he didn't even give them a warning!

It took her so long to react!

Moreover, he did not leave any valuables that were easy to carry for transactions for her and her son. How cruel and heartless!

But she didn't have time to scold Pei Xiao.

Because there is no time!

Pei Xiao ran away so early, which meant that there was no room for maneuver and the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion would soon be in disaster.

She did not dare to delay and immediately collected some valuable calligraphy and paintings, took out the gold and silver jewelry from her private treasury, and ordered someone to harness the carriage, so that she could leave the house immediately.

However, before she could come out of the main courtyard, she heard heavy, powerful and chaotic footsteps coming from outside.

In a blink of an eye, a group of soldiers dressed in imperial guard uniforms rushed into the yard aggressively.

Meng Bin, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards, who had always been very respectful and polite to her, now had a face as cold as ice:

"Your Majesty has issued an order that the Jingnan Marquis's mansion colluded with the King of Shu and framed the Imperial Master. This crime is unforgivable. All of them will be imprisoned from today onwards and will be brought back to Jingnan Marquis for trial together!"

This time, even Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi in the palace was finished. It was not as easy as the last time she was imprisoned.

Immediately, Zhang was pushed and taken to the outer courtyard without any courtesy.

The elegant hairpins and rings were scattered all over the floor, and the carefully combed hair bun became messy due to the pushing and shoving.

The imperial guards who usually didn't dare to even look at her treated her roughly like a prisoner.

What made her even more devastated was that when she was escorted to the outer courtyard, she saw Haitang, who was supposed to leave the house, and Hun'er, who was crying in her arms.
