Jian Ning walked back and forth in front of Pei Xitong with his arms folded, looking down at her from above, which made Pei Xitong feel uneasy. "If you have to fart, just fart! You southerners are just so unpleasant!"
"You like smelling farts? Don't you find it smelly?"
"you!"
"What am I doing? I'm doing this for your own good. My farts may not taste good!"
Several maids chuckled, and one of them said, "Does the princess have something to ask this barbarian woman? If she doesn't agree to scratch her face, she will definitely tell you."
"How dare you!" Pei Zitong cherished her face very much. She and Pei Xiyuan were siblings from the same mother. Although she could not compare with her mother, Concubine Li, in terms of appearance, she was considered a top beauty in Yue Kingdom.
"Do you think I dare?" Jian Ning moved closer to her with a smile on her lips. After Concubine Li captured Pei Zitong alive, she once said that this Yueman had the mentality of a child and didn't have any scheming.
If you want to get information from a simple-minded person, the best way is to understand her pulse, confuse her mentality first, then talk about her pain points, and then stand on her side and pretend to stand up for her. When you speak for her, she will have a strong sense of being identified, and then use provocation to motivate her, so that you can easily get her to talk.
These are the moves that Jian Ning must learn when she is a special police officer performing undercover missions. In addition, when she and Huo Jincheng went to Yue Kingdom to look for Manager Chen, they also heard some things about the Yue Kingdom Palace in the inn.
Because Concubine Li was from the Central Plains, she was not favored by the previous emperor of Yue Kingdom. Other princes and princesses had been given titles early on, but Pei Xiyuan and Pei Zitong had not been given titles for a long time. Until the previous emperor of Yue Kingdom passed away, Pei Zitong was still a princess without a title.
Having a title and not having one were completely different things, especially in the Moon Kingdom. The tax revenue from the county where the princess was enfeoffed belonged to her. After Pei Xiyuan ascended the throne of the Moon Emperor, Pei Zitong fully expected to receive a title. It was said that her mother had already drafted a title for her: Princess Qujing.
But after Pei Xiyuan ascended the throne, he was ambitious. He was either busy taking concubines and winning over the power of ministers in the court, or busy conquering and annexing neighboring small countries. How could he have time to care about her affairs? Because it involved fiefdoms, the Queen Mother of Yue Kingdom had no power to issue decrees to reward them. The emperor had to personally confer the title.
What Pei Zitong finally got after waiting for so long was that her own brother used her as a gift to win over the military forces. He married her to her short-lived husband and also made a big promise for her, saying that he would give her a title after he conquered the Central Plains.
Not to mention, Pei Zitong even ate this big pie. Her mother was originally the most noble princess of the Qing Kingdom in the Central Plains. The land of the Qing Kingdom is now divided into two, half in Qilin County of Dayan Dynasty, and the other half is incorporated into Dazhou County.
Qilin symbolizes auspiciousness, nobility and authority. Pei Xiyuan has verbally promised to make her the Qilin Princess after he takes over the Central Plains. Otherwise, she would not have insisted on going to the battlefield with the army as a new widow.
Pei Zitong didn't want to be an ugly Qilin Princess. Seeing Jian Ning approaching her, she screamed in fear, "Go away! Don't touch me! Woo woo..."
She started crying again, her eyes full of fear, as if Jane Ning was a devil. She unconsciously kicked her legs backwards, causing the shackles on her feet to rattle.
"You don't have to be afraid, it's not difficult to let you go, because keeping you is of no use to us. You're a princess without even a title, who in the Moon Kingdom would value you?" Jian Ning shook her head. "I really feel sorry for you. How could your father, the emperor, not even give you a title when he was on the throne? Now that your brother is the Moon Emperor, you still don't have a title. Tsk tsk, you've done too much for a princess!"
"I will have a title!" Pei Zitong stopped crying when she heard her praise her beauty. "When my royal brother defeats you and conquers the Central Plains, he will make me a princess. If you live to see that day, you will have to watch me receive the title!"
"Oh, really? But what can we do? We've already conquered Fengyi, and you're still dreaming? You Yue people are truly useless. Your royal brother's men are nothing but mediocre and incompetent people who eat and drink for free. We are nothing like our Dayan Dynasty, which is full of talented people and outstanding talents. Fighting against us is like hitting a rock with an egg."
"You know what it means to hit a rock with an egg. I don't need to explain it to you, do I?" Jian Ning squatted down and looked into her eyes. "It's like hitting a rock with an egg. Your royal brother doesn't even treat you as his own sister. He doesn't want to give you a fiefdom. If he wanted to, he would have given it to you as soon as he ascended the throne. He's been lying to you. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ignored you after we captured you. He doesn't even care whether you live or die, so how could he have given you a fiefdom?"
Pei Zitong covered her face and cried, tears streaming down from between her fingers. No matter how unpopular she was in the past, at least she had her mother to protect her. Pei Xiyuan was also very good to her sister before he ascended the throne. But since she was captured, she was looked down upon by several maids of the concubines, and she almost had horse manure in her mouth.
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Now that Yue Country had lost the war again, who would care about her life or death? This feeling of being abandoned by her own country and her own relatives really made her extremely panic.
"Don't cry, what's the point of crying? How about this? No one in Yue Kingdom cares about you anyway. We will launch a large-scale siege in three days. Once Fengyi City is captured, we will go straight to Shangjing. It's impossible for you, a princess, to enjoy the title. How about I choose a husband for you? Oh, right, my husband's long-term servant has no wife yet. I want him to marry you as a concubine. What do you think?"
Concubine Li's maid smiled and said, "I can see she's been wearing mourning clothes. We asked her and she knows her husband has died. It would be a great honor for her to be a concubine to General Zuo's attendant. It would be a great honor for her."
"Bullshit!" Pei Zitong was embarrassed and angry. She sobbed a few times, then wiped away her tears. She gritted her teeth and glared at Jian Ning, saying, "Don't even think about it! Do you really think there's no one left in our Yue Country?"
Jian Ning scoffed disdainfully, "Your Yue Nation has only small fry. The sorcery of your Yue Nation's worthless wizards is no match for the immortal masters of the Central Plains! That Nuo Shen is your imperial preceptor, a top wizard, right? But so what? He was still beaten to a pulp by us, and now he's holed up in Fengyi City, not even daring to show his face!"
"What kind of top wizard is Nuo Shen? His master, Li Shang Tian Wu, is the real one! Just wait and see. Tian Wu will not sit idly by and watch you attack Fengyi and advance to Shangjing. He will definitely defeat you and send you back to your Central Plains!"
Pei Zitong was provoked by Jian Ning, and she suddenly thought of Li Shang Tian Wu. When she mentioned Li Shang Tian Wu, she felt more confident, "Just wait for Tian Wu's Xuanju Army to gnaw you into a pile of bones!"
Black Horse? Ant Army?
Jian Ning was secretly shocked, and stopped talking to her and turned around and left in a hurry.
