Chapter 213 You Really Only Like My Body
Pei Jing glanced at Duan Jiu, then turned to Zhao Xingbang, "Are you blaming me for taking action too late?"
"No, no, no! I absolutely did not mean that!" Zhao Xingbang shuddered with fear. "I can only blame my father for striking too early. How can I blame the prince for taking action too late?"
"So what do you want me to do for you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Jing saw Jiang Fei walking in from outside, and his eyes were immediately glued to her.
Pei Jing watched her walk towards him, and inexplicably felt that she was different recently. There was a kind of indescribable charm about her, which was inexplicably alluring. Once his eyes fell on her, he didn't want to look away.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty? Are you listening to what I'm saying?"
Pei Jing came back to his senses and asked, "What did you just say?"
Jiang Fei stepped over the threshold and continued, "He said he wants you to say something fair for him. Those people outside are spreading rumors. Please clarify it for him."
"Right, right, right," Zhao Xingbang said, "I've long since turned over a new leaf. I haven't caused any trouble these days. Why do you still think I'm a bad guy?"
"It's just clarification, what's the difficulty?" Pei Jing was in a good mood and everything was easy to talk about.
He extended his hand for Jiang Fei to come over and said to Zhao Xingbang, "But are you sure you want me to clarify things for you?"
Zhao Xingbang was stunned for a moment, "Yes."
Duan Jiu smiled.
This Zhao Xingbang is really a fool. Everyone knows what the prince's reputation is in the capital. The people call him the "Mad King" and he has a cruel and perverse temperament.
If the prince were to come out and speak for others, the more he tried to clarify things, the worse his reputation would become.
Jiang Fei extended his hand and was pulled by Pei Jing to sit beside him. "If Your Majesty speaks, the people will only think that since the Crazy King has clarified things for you, what good can you be?"
Zhao Xingbang shuddered when he heard the words "Mad King".
There is actually someone in this world who calls King Zhaoning the Mad King right in front of him. Is he trying to kill himself?
Looking at the prince again, the look in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Fei was full of indulgence, without a trace of anger.
Pei Jing looked at Zhao Xingbang, "Do you think my reputation can bring you more glory?"
Zhao Xingbang's face fell. "Then... then I can only carry this blame for the rest of my life?"
Pei Jing raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a lighter tone, "Of course I have to clarify. I don't want her to have anything to do with you."
He looked at Duan Jiu and said, "You know what to do."
Duan Jiu responded, "Yes, I will arrange it later."
At this moment, the long-lost voice of the system suddenly rang in Jiang Fei's mind: "Host, won't you stop it?"
Jiang Fei smiled meaningfully, "I finally forced you out, it wasn't easy."
The system seemed to have completely disappeared these days. Jiang Fei called it several times but the system did not appear.
Sure enough, once the original plot was touched upon, the system could no longer hold back. After all, what the system cared about most was to make everything follow the trajectory in the book.
The system said anxiously, "What a great opportunity! In the book, Jiang Rufei was taken into Zhao Xingbang's backyard. Isn't that the same as the rumors out there now? I've unintentionally completed another quest line."
Jiang Fei had just thought of this. It was true that in this world, no matter what she did, it would become the key to advancing the plot. However, at this moment, she was thinking of something deeper.
The system determines whether it is consistent with the original plot, and the criteria for judgment are not facts.
Just like at this moment, she clearly did not enter the Zhao family, but rumors were spreading outside, and the system could also determine that the mission was completed.
This means that as long as the public agrees with something, even if it is not the truth, the system can be deceived.
I see.
Jiang Fei curled her lips and said, since the system is determined by the mouths of the people, then as long as everyone thinks that a certain person is dead, even if that person is not dead, the task can be completed.
She could use this opportunity to save Princess Anping and Jiang Chenglang.
By the time Jiang Fei came to her senses, Zhao Xingbang had already left happily. Jiang Fei didn't even notice what they said afterwards.
"Then I'll take my leave and arrange it right away." Duan Jiu said and was about to leave.
“Wait!”
Jiang Fei's voice suddenly rang out, "Don't rush to clarify this matter."
Pei Jing frowned slightly, "Why?"
"Duan Jiu, please go down first. I have something to say to the prince."
Duan Jiu looked at the prince and seeing that he had no objection, he left and considerately closed the door.
When there were only two people left in the side hall, Jiang Fei turned to Pei Jing and said, "I hope this matter will not be clarified."
Pei Jing's face darkened, and his tone was a little unhappy. "No. How can you get involved with someone like Zhao Xingbang? You are mine."
"But I'm not Jiang Rufei." Jiang Fei said patiently, "I'm just Jiang Fei. The Jiang family is not a family to me."
"But if I want to marry you, I have to get the Jiang family's approval."
Jiang Fei took his hand and asked, "Do you think they will let you marry me?"
Pei Jing was silent.
How could he not know what those people in the Jiang family were thinking? They used her to ward off disasters in the past, and now they use her as a bargaining chip. They don't treat her as a family member at all.
He had wanted to kill those people in the Jiang family for a long time, but her surname was Jiang and she was on the Jiang family tree. If she wanted to marry him, she had to marry out of the Jiang family, which was really frustrating.
"Actually, I don't need any status." Jiang Fei said tentatively.
Pei Jing did not get married until the end of the book, so it would be impossible for her to marry Pei Jing legally now, but this would not affect their relationship.
Unexpectedly, Pei Jing's face darkened when he heard this. "Do you want me to be nameless and without status, and become your concubine?"
Jiang Fei was stunned. Why was this person's train of thought different from others?
It was clearly her who compromised and was willing to follow him without any status, so how come he became the one with no status?
"Doesn't that mean I have no name or status?"
"You have no status, but I have no title?" Pei Jing said coldly, "You want me to be your concubine? No way!"
Jiang Fei was speechless for a moment. It seemed that this way didn't work in Peijing, so she had to find another way.
"But it seems unlikely that you want me to marry you from the Jiang family." Jiang Fei said: "The Jiang family and the Wei family are already relatives, they are like grasshoppers tied to the same rope. In order not to offend the Wei family, they will definitely find various reasons to refuse."
Pei Jing knew this, of course. He frowned and said, "In the final analysis, you still don't want to marry me."
"I don't have one, isn't that impossible?"
Pei Jing narrowed his eyes, a hint of danger flashing in them, "Then kill them all, until they are willing to marry you in style."
Before Jiang Fei could speak, the system immediately said, "Okay, okay."
"That's fine." Jiang Fei nodded.
Pei Jing suddenly turned around and looked at her, "You don't want to marry me, but you want me to kill your whole family?"
Jiang Fei burst out laughing: "How can you get so confused with your logic? It was you who said you wanted to kill my whole family."
"You're so happy you're laughing, aren't you?" Pei Jing snorted coldly. "I see you're just waiting for me to make a move so you can find an excuse not to marry me. You really only like my body and only want...only want to sleep with me, not give me a legitimate status."
