"Thank you, God!"

Then he left the imperial study at a swift pace.

Not long after Hui'an left, Yan Rong came again.

Chen Qingzhu happened to have something to discuss with him, so he asked someone to call him in.

She thought Yan Rong came to see her for something important, so she waited for him to speak first.

Sure enough, after Yan Rong saluted, he immediately said:

"God, I didn't have time to report to you earlier that Emperor Yong'an took Second Master Pei hostage. After I rescued him, I allowed Second Master Pei to stay temporarily in my house to keep him safe."

Only then did Chen Qingzhu confirm that Pei Xuan was still alive.

To be honest, although she felt that Pei Xuan's performance in the past two years was a bit stupid and he couldn't see the situation clearly, her opinion had improved slightly.

At least, he no longer blamed the world or his parents, and knew that he had to work hard.

But now the situation has changed again, as her son, he has unlimited possibilities in his identity.

This kind of knowing effort and stupidity combined can easily lead to greater disaster.

Therefore, her test of him was far from over.

"Let him stay in your house for a while. I will settle him down after I finish my work."

She felt that her indifference was a very clear statement.

This was her last kindness to him.

If Pei Xuan still can't see the situation clearly after all this, and does something stupid in the future, she will not show mercy.

"Yes."

Yan Rong agreed.

Then, Chen Qingzhu ordered:

"Yan Rong, you have lived in the capital for a long time, so you should be familiar with the style of the dignitaries in the capital."

"I order you to send your men to the Inspectorate and Jingzhao Prefecture to compile a file for each of the ten families that have committed the most and most serious crimes."

"Please also compile a list of the cases that you know of that have been withdrawn."

"There's no need to trace this matter back too far, let's just start from five years ago."

The five years are based on the time she came to the capital, two years before she came to the capital and three years after she came to the capital.

She spent more time there after coming to Beijing.

This was the opportunity she gave to the powerful people in Beijing.

If anyone has been inspired by her and has restrained himself from doing evil since she came to the capital, he can be given a lighter punishment.

If I continue to do as I please, I deserve to be put to death.

Upon hearing this, Yan Rong broke out in a cold sweat.

It seems that the God is still going to take action against the powerful people in the capital.

And he is the sword chosen by the God, and I don’t know how many people will hate him.

"God, if there is a family that has made great contributions this time..."

he asked hesitantly.

Chen Qingzhu naturally understood his dilemma and said straightforwardly:

"The families that assisted you this time will not be investigated."

It's not that she really let these people go, but the world has not yet been completely pacified, and she needs to give the local tyrants some hope.

To prevent them from becoming desperate and endangering the local people.

Yan Rong immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Those people were more or less old acquaintances with him. If they were also severely punished, he really would not be able to explain to those families.

Forget it. This time when I go back I will warn them to be careful in the future, otherwise the God will kill them and no one can save them.

"Yes."

Chen Qingzhu said seriously:

"I will only give you three days. During this period, you must strictly prevent the news from leaking out."

Now the gates of the capital are still blocked. If it continues for too long, it will have a great impact on the people inside and outside the city.

So we must catch the turtle in the jar as soon as possible.

First, find out those families and put them all in the Tianlao. When all the officials from Nandu arrive, we will slowly investigate and sentence them.

"I obey my orders!"

Yan Rong felt nervous and promised solemnly.

After leaving the imperial study and returning to the government office, the sweat on his back had dried, and Yan Rong was finally in the mood to think about the God's attitude towards the second Master Pei just now.

The God arranged the affairs of the Second Master Pei with only one sentence, but arranged the government affairs with many words.

With so many palaces in the palace, how difficult would it be to accommodate a young prince?

Even the ministers and young masters who were far away in Nandu were ordered by the God to clean up the palace for them and bring the second young master Pei into the palace. Isn't it just a matter of a word?

After the God entered the city, he did not ask immediately, but waited for him to report actively, but left him out in the cold.

All of this shows that the God is really cold towards the Second Young Master Pei.

It seems that he needs to take a break from all that thinking.

Of course, we still can't be negligent.

Three days later, after finishing his official duties and returning to the Yan family, he visited Pei Xuan as usual, cared about his injuries, and then conveyed the words of the God to Pei Xuan word for word.

Pei Xuan, who was full of expectations, felt like he was slapped in the face in public when he heard this.

He felt his mother's coldness towards him, and such coldness must have been noticed by outsiders like Yan Rong.

He felt extremely embarrassed.

Why would she do this to him!

Pei Xuan was disappointed, angry, and also had some fear that he was unwilling to admit.

He pretended to be calm and politely sent Yan Rong away. Then he drove all the servants out and locked himself in the room.

"She is really still mad at me, what should I do..."

"She is my mother, how can she be so narrow-minded and nitpick with a child like me!"

He muttered to himself, sometimes angry, sometimes anxious, but in the end these emotions turned into anxiety.

"No... I can't go on like this, I have to think of a way..."

No matter what, he had to make his mother soften her heart towards him and calm down, so that he would have a chance to make up for her current grievances in the future.

Pei Xuan pondered for several days and finally came up with a solution.

That's being sick.

In his previous life, no matter how big a mistake he made, once he was sick or injured, his parents would rush to coax him to eat and take medicine, and no longer care about his mistakes.

Now, he can also perform the same self-torture trick.
