Chapter 238 Killing people quickly
Qian Peiqin then took over the conversation and snorted, "It's just that my sister is weak in character and endures such insults."
Qian Peizhu's face turned pale, and he hurriedly pulled his sister's sleeve and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense."
She didn't want to follow Qian Peiqin and Jiang Ruoxi.
After all, the Jiang family was suppressed, and Jiang Duo was a criminal, so the whole family was in a bad mood.
Her husband had just been promoted to the position of Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and she was afraid that if she got too close to them, it would affect her husband's future.
But Qian Peiqin held her back, saying that a family should share hardships and that she wanted to support her sister who had lost her husband.
Qian Peizhu had no choice but to obey Qian Peiqin because her mother was being controlled by the mistress, so she had to follow them but did not participate in any of their conversations.
Qian Peiqin got angry, flicked her sleeves, and spoke in a sharp voice.
"What nonsense am I talking about? Isn't it true? The Pei family sent military rations thousands of miles away, and it all became Gu Huan's credit. What about you? What did you get? She got an imperial decree, but you didn't even hear her fart. If you don't think highly of your husband anymore, be careful that someone else will seduce him away. By then, you will be an abandoned woman like Gu Wanru!"
Qian Peizhu looked embarrassed and quickly took two steps back, moving away from her.
"Are you questioning the emperor?"
A cool voice came over.
Everyone looked over and saw a handsome man in dark purple official uniform walking towards them.
Gu Huan's eyes lit up.
Pei Yi.
He was promoted to the third rank?
It's really fast.
Pei Yi met her gaze and smiled softly at her.
Seeing that they dared to exchange glances in front of her, Qian Peizhu almost twisted the handkerchief in her hand into a knot. She turned her head away angrily, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
Suddenly, a dark shadow enveloped her, and a large white hand appeared in front of her.
A gentle voice came from above: "Madam."
Qian Peizhu suddenly raised her eyes and met Pei Yi's gentle eyes. Her eyes suddenly turned red and she quickly put her hand in his palm.
Pei Yi held her hand, turned and looked at Qian Peiqin, his face darkening.
"You have once again made irresponsible comments on state affairs and His Majesty. You have committed a serious crime! What? The mistakes made by the Jiang and Yuan families some time ago were not enough to warn you. Haven't you learned to be careful with your words?"
The faces of the women from the Jiang and Yuan families changed slightly when they heard this.
The other women who were close to them quickly and quietly stepped back and kept a distance from them.
Qian Peizhu was so nervous that his palms were sweating.
Feeling Pei Yi's big hand squeezing her tightly, she felt much more at ease. She looked up at her husband's handsome face, then quietly glanced at Gu Huan.
She had a smile on her face, clear eyes, and a frank look.
Could it be that she is overthinking?
Pei Yi did not stop and continued: "The emperor has been very generous in rewarding the Pei family. Our Pei family has never received such an honor. The Pei family has the opportunity to deliver food thousands of miles away, help the Mu family army recover the country, and make contributions to military exploits. It is all because of the opportunity given by Madam Mu."
"If Madam Mu asks anyone to supply food, everyone will donate generously. Our Pei family is grateful to Madam Mu. Do you doubt the wisdom of His Majesty?"
Qian Peiqin was so angry that her chest heaved. She pointed at him and said angrily, "You are turning your elbow outward. I think you just like that little bitch! Are you worthy of my sister?"
Pei Yi shouted angrily: "How dare you! You not only slandered the wife of the Duke of Yong, but also the officials of the court! Your husband is a criminal, and it is the kindness of the emperor that he was not implicated. I think you need to learn a lesson before you know how to repent! I will report to the emperor tomorrow when we go to court!"
"you!"
Qian Peiqin was so embarrassed by her brother-in-law in public that her eyes turned red with anger.
She glared at Qian Peizhu: "You got a good husband! I underestimated you and your lowly mother!"
Qian Peizhu's face turned pale: "Sister..."
Pei Yi pulled Qian Peizhu behind him and said sternly, "Okay, I'll go ask my father tomorrow about the right and wrong."
Qian Peizhu's face froze.
Gu Huan also came over and bowed to the noblewoman who had just spoken to her: "I have rarely been out, and have never met this lady. Madam, I cannot agree with you. My late husband died bravely to protect the territory of Daliang and the people of the world. I also fought hard and shed blood for this battle, and was rewarded by the emperor. May I ask, why am I not ashamed to be seen?
Madam, you are adorned with gold and silver, but have you ever served the country? Besides, my invitation was delivered by the Queen herself. Do you mean to say that the Queen was wrong? ”
The lady's face turned pale.
Gu Huan turned to the second person and said, "My title was conferred by the Emperor himself. If Madam has any objection, please ask your master to ask the Emperor to make a decision."
Gu Huan glanced at the people around Jiang Ruoxi calmly and said, "If you all want to continue your life of wealth and glory, please behave yourself and don't get yourself into trouble by being quick-witted."
Everyone was choked and speechless.
Jiang Ruoxi sneered: "Oh, I haven't seen you for a few months, but you have become quite eloquent."
Gu Huan gave her a modest smile and said, "You'll get better at scolding bastards. Not only am I good at talking, I'm also good at punching and kicking. If I slap a delicate beauty like County Lady Jiang, her face will swell. If you don't believe me, you can try it."
Jiang Ruoxi's expression changed: "You dare to attack me?"
Gu Huan smiled contemptuously: "If anyone dares to slander my late husband, I will dare to take action!"
She raised her lips slowly and said word by word, "My dagger can kill people very quickly. I've become very skilled at it after killing many people."
The ladies froze when they heard this.
Jiang Ruoxi was so angry that she pointed at her with a shaking finger: "You are so presumptuous! I am a royal relative and will soon enter the palace as a concubine! You are committing treason and you should be beaten to death!"
Gu Huan held out her slightly bulging belly and raised her eyebrows: "Don't mention that you haven't entered the palace yet. Besides, can the royal family beat people to death at will? Do you think the laws of Daliang are set by your Jiang family?"
She suddenly raised her voice and raised her head: "I am pregnant with the posthumous child of Duke Yong. Dare you touch even a hair of mine?"
Mu Junyan said that she could use his tiger skin as a banner.
What's more, she has the emperor backing her up, so what is she afraid of?
"Okay, very good. I am the county lady, and my aunt is the empress dowager. I can't hit you, right?"
Jiang Ruoxi waved her hand: "Someone, slap me in the face!"
"Who dares!" The queen appeared with a group of people.
He stared coldly at Jiang Ruoxi: "County Lady, Madam Mu is a meritorious official personally commended by the emperor, and she is also my goddaughter. In terms of status, you are on the same level as her. In terms of merit, you can't compare with her!"
Jiang Ruoxi sneered: "Really? Then I entered the palace as a noble concubine, and my status is not higher than hers?"
The queen smiled and said, "Then let's talk about it after you enter the palace as a noble concubine."
Gu Huan bowed to the Queen, and the Queen stepped forward to support her.
She looked at Gu Huan with eyes full of love and smiled gently, "The emperor has exempted you from the formalities, so there is no need to be polite in front of me. Let's go, there is a flower appreciation and poetry gathering over there, let's go over there and have some fun. I want to see your poems shine."
Gu Huan nodded: "I obey your command."
Jiang Ruoxi and Qian Peiqin stared at Gu Huan's back, wishing they could grow knives to pierce her full of holes.
Jiang Ruoxi turned around and whispered to the noble ladies around her, "This little bitch was raised as a concubine's daughter, how can she know how to write poetry? You guys go over there and make a fool of herself!"
"Okay, don't worry, County Master."
"With us here, it may be impossible to win the championship, but it's easy to crush her to death."
Several noble ladies followed proudly.
Jiang Ruoxi's eyes were cold and she asked the maid beside her: "Where is my brother? I want to see him."
