Someone immediately turned around and asked the pale Prince Jing: "Prince Jing, it's a good thing that you were replaced by His Majesty, otherwise, this unfortunate thing today would have happened to you."

Prince Jing’s face was stiff.

He was replaced, but the twelfth prince handed this matter over to him.

Because he didn't want to offend the twelfth prince, he didn't interfere with how his men built the shelter.

So now the twelfth prince is in the prison of the Ministry of Justice...

If the Sixth Prince comes out someday, it will be the day of his death!

How could Prince Jing not be afraid? He was clearly feeling lucky that he had escaped a disaster just a few days ago.

But things are unpredictable!

Liu Geng, who was beside Prince Jing, also had an extremely unpleasant expression on his face. He pursed his lips, glanced around the room, and did not find the person he wanted to see.

He immediately bowed to his father and turned to leave the palace.

He walked so fast that the servant beside him could hardly catch up with him. It was not until he got on the carriage that the servant asked Liu Geng where he was going.

"Go and deliver the visiting card to Princess Jiashan's residence!"

The weather has been gloomy in recent days because of the snow. After Pei Chun and Gu Yuan delivered warm cotton clothes to the people in the shelter, they returned to the mansion first.

Pei Chun did not know medicine and could not rebuild the house, so she stayed there. Many servants had to bow to her when they saw her.

It's really a nuisance.

In the end, my second brother drove me back without hesitation.

As soon as she and Gu Yuan entered the house hand in hand, they saw their eldest cousin Liu Geng kneeling on the ground.

The fifth brother was hiding under the eaves with his head down, his expression unclear, and his movements seemed to be trying to pull Liu Geng up.

Pei Chun asked in surprise: "Why is my cousin here?"

Hearing this, Liu Geng immediately turned around, knelt on the ground and took two steps forward: "Fu Ning! Funing, please save my father!"

Pei Chun frowned: "What's wrong with Prince Jing? Cousin, you get up first."

Gu Yuan followed behind Pei Chun, forced his way forward, lent a hand, and together with Pei Jing, dragged Liu Geng up.

"Fu Ning, please talk to Duke Xin and Aunt Jiashan.

My father just didn't want to provoke the people under the twelfth prince, so he didn't intervene. But who would have thought that what happened today would happen!

As long as the twelfth prince brings it up, His Majesty will have someone investigate it carefully, and my father will definitely be punished.

I know that you and Empress Ma are like sisters. Please ask Funing to speak a few good words for my father. From now on, Liu Geng will be at your disposal!"

At this moment, Liu Geng's eyes were full of anxiety, and his previous decadent look was completely gone.

I almost cried when I looked at Pei Chun.

Not only that, he also lowered his head and was about to kneel down in the direction of Gu Yuan.

Pei Chun had to use some strength to restrain the man, so that he did not kneel down on the spot.

"Cousin, don't kneel. Let's talk it over nicely if you have anything to say!" Together with her fifth brother, she pulled Liu Geng to a chair.

He held the man down tightly before he heaving a sigh of relief.

"Funing..." Liu Geng's voice trembled.

"So, it was your father's doing that the twelfth prince entered the Ministry of Justice?" Pei Chun looked over with some curiosity.

I wonder if Prince Jing is so loyal to the Sixth Prince? So loyal that he would drag the Twelfth Prince down with him even if he dies?

Pei Chun didn't understand, but his expression was somewhat shocked.

Liu Geng saw her unspeakable expression, lowered his eyebrows, and said sadly: "If the shelter had not collapsed suddenly today, my father would not know about this.

My father just didn’t want to get involved, for fear of causing dislike to the twelfth prince.

Who would have thought... something like this would happen suddenly." Liu Geng said, his voice choking with sobs.

After saying this, he couldn't help wiping away his tears.

Pei Chun subconsciously exchanged a glance with his fifth brother. Neither of them spoke. It was Gu Yuan who asked tentatively, "Did Prince Jing invite my cousin to the Princess's Mansion?"

Prince Jing had been in cahoots with the Sixth Prince before, so who knows if he was deliberately trying to get the Twelfth Prince involved this time.

Liu Geng shook his head: "My father doesn't know yet."

His father never liked him to be too close to the Pei family, so how could he let him humble himself and beg for help?

But if he didn't ask, what would his father do? Would he be dragged to jail by the twelfth prince who had come to his senses?

Liu Geng was also reluctant.

Pei Chun sighed, remembering the time in her previous life when Liu Geng stood in front of her and was pierced through the heart by an arrow. In the end, she couldn't bear to refuse, and just looked at Liu Geng who was wiping his tears.

"Brother, don't worry. I will definitely help you with this matter. It's getting late, so you should go back soon. I will tell you if there is any result."
