Marquis Pei Su of Jianchang rushed to his mother's place, somewhat bewildered.
"Our ancestors deserve an explanation!" one of the young men exclaimed excitedly.
Pei Su was furious and went over to kick him!
The boy, who had been frivolous with a group of women and beauties, was suddenly kicked and fell over.
"You bastard!" Pei Su wasn't a filial son; he was just holding back his anger.
"Lord Marquis!" Upon seeing their leader, the group of troublemakers' arrogance subsided by three points.
"What do you want to do?" Pei Su asked, his voice carrying a hint of authority as he was still angry.
Even if he was incompetent, he was still the Marquis of Jianchang; men and women are different.
The women of Qinglong Hall all breathed a sigh of relief, as these people had suddenly become a bit crazy.
Madam Li said angrily, "You want to explain, is that it? When I go to the palace, one person from each of your families will come with me to see that dead girl."
That's a good explanation.
Pei Su roared, "Get out!"
No one knew what he was angry about, but he was allowed to leave. After all, the dead cannot be brought back to life; he was just trying to get some benefits.
The fourth young lady is going to the palace to become the Crown Prince's consort. To keep quiet, she needs to be given more benefits.
Qinglong Hall is much quieter now.
A gust of cold wind blew in again, and everyone started sneezing.
Madam Li looked at her youngest son, this useless fellow, and asked, "What is it now?"
Pei Su, despite his advanced age, was so angry he jumped up and down: "The Duke of Rongguo has sent someone to impeach my son!"
The Li family was shocked!
Pei Su exclaimed, "My son went to see the Crown Prince, but that brat is making excuses and delaying! Doesn't he know I'm his grandfather?!"
Cao said weakly, "Even the Crown Prince can't do anything against the Duke of Rong, can he?"
Who doesn't know that the Crown Prince is completely under Empress Cao's thumb? Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken a woman from the Pei family as a concubine.
Pei Su was furious: "What do you mean there's nothing he can do? I think he just won't do anything! It must be that wretched girl who angered him! Mother must teach her a lesson when we go to the palace! What will she rely on without the Pei family?"
Holding her breath, Madam Li asked, "And then what happens after you're impeached?"
Pei Su, his face flushed and neck thick with anger, said, "Let the relevant authorities investigate directly."
Li Shi was increasingly holding her breath: "What is it?"
Seeing that there were so many people in Qinglong Hall, Pei Su told them all to leave.
Cao quickly stood up; there were many things about the Pei family that were beyond her control.
Madam Qian remained seated and did not move: "What is it that makes the Emperor refuse to give you any face at all?"
Pei Su lost even more face in front of his wife. The current emperor already looked down on him, and today he was made to lose face even more, but what's the big deal?
Xia was also curious about what had happened. Being impeached must be no small matter, so the Pei family was truly rotten.
Pei Huanying asked angrily, "Because that brat hit someone?"
Pei Huanfeng glanced at her: "Isn't it because you contradicted the Empress?"
Pei Huanying said, "No matter what she did, what does impeaching her have to do with my grandfather?"
Pei Huanying was standing up for her grandfather: "Why is Your Majesty so merciful? Why not just give her a good beating?"
That's how it was always done in the Pei family. Pei Huanying said wickedly, "If they don't behave after one beating, we'll beat them twice."
Yuan Xu and Yu Yan stood outside the door, their expressions quite interesting.
The servants of the Pei family hurriedly announced, "The imperial envoy from the Eastern Palace has arrived!"
Pei Su was startled!
Yuan Xu and Yu Yan remained standing outside the door, watching the Pei family's young ladies along with the eunuchs behind them.
Pei Su seemed to realize something, his confidence surged, and he sat down steadily.
Wearing a scholar's cap and a purple python robe, Pei Su exuded a commanding presence.
Yu Yan strolled in slowly and said slowly, "The Pei family is truly well-mannered; no wonder they want the Empress to play the villain."
Pei Su's expression changed drastically!
Li sat there and began to pose.
Yu Yanting bowed respectfully, his confidence far exceeding that of the useless Pei family: "Her Majesty is unwell and unable to see anyone, so she sent a small gift from the Pei family. Your Highness will also reward her."
Yuan Xu, who was one of His Highness's men, handed over the gift list.
A group of eunuchs carried in the goods and laid them out on the floor; they were not meager.
Li ignored the gift list and instead shouted angrily, "What did you say?"
Yu Yan squinted at the old hag, not caring about the Empress, but about her: "The imperial physician said it should not be taken lightly, but His Majesty has granted the Empress permission to rest."
Pei Huanying ran over and asked very clearly, "You mean we can't enter the palace?"
Another young lady snapped out of her daze and said, "Wasn't Fourth Sister doing quite well before?"
Yu Yan laughed: "The Pei family is really interesting. The Empress has only been in the palace for a few days. Does the imperial physician dare to deceive the Emperor?"
Yuan Xu reminded her, "Miss Pei, you'd better think before you speak."
Yuan Xu was in his thirties and had served in the Eastern Palace for over a decade. He had never seen the Pei family so disgraceful.
That's completely unreliable.
I used to think it was bad, but now I realize the problem is serious.
This family doesn't care about saving face at all, let alone consider the Crown Princess's feelings.
Mrs. Qian retorted angrily, "How could I not know about my daughter?"
Yuan Xu asked, "Is Lady Qian dissatisfied with the Crown Prince?"
This is truly eye-opening! The Crown Prince bestowed gifts upon them, and not a single person expressed their gratitude!
The Pei family has an even bigger face than the Dong family! Yuan Xu gave gifts to the Dong family, so even if it was just a formality, he should at least say thank you.
Cao was timid and hurriedly said weakly, "No, no. How is Her Majesty?"
Yu Yan responded, "Not good."
Madam Li finally realized, "I must go and see her."
Li began to cry, her poor great-granddaughter.
Pei Huanying reacted quickly: "I'll go with the old ancestor."
Yu Yan asked, "If the Pei family doesn't teach her properly, are they going to make the Empress a villain in the Eastern Palace again? The Empress needs to rest, don't you all understand?"
Pei Huanying was stunned! That brat dared to hit her?
Li Shi, don't cry. That damned girl won't see her at all.
Ms. Qian slammed her hand on the table in anger.
Yu Yan looked at her harsh face: "The Crown Prince's Palace now only has the Empress."
There is no Pei family daughter. If the Pei family still treats their daughter like a mistress, they should wake up as soon as possible.
No sooner had Yuan Xu, Yu Yan, and a group of eunuchs left than they heard the Qinglong Hall behind them being overturned!
Yuan Xu shook his head, looked around the Marquis's residence, and watched Pei Huanxu leave in a hurry.
Yuan Xu shook his head. Pei Huanxu was still having an affair with Princess Yongjia. It would be quite an achievement if he actually managed to hook up with her.
Pei Huanxu hurried to Qinglong Hall.
Although Lady Li was trembling with anger, she managed to hold back and told her great-grandson, "Find your brother and go to the East Palace immediately."
Pei Huanxu understood: "I'll go find that wretched girl right away!"
Pei Huanying cried out, "Second Brother!"
Pei Huanxu looked at her, because he had many younger sisters, so he didn't have much affection for his cousin.
Pei Huanying knew, but simply said to him, "That brat wants to teach us a lesson!"
"She dares!"
Pei Huanxu charged out like a whirlwind!
He could simply go to the stable and fetch a horse; if he had the Overlord Spear in his hand, he could storm into the Eastern Palace.
There are countless people watching the Pei residence right now.
How come the Pei family, a family of utter depravity, has finally produced a fine young man?
He's handsome and imposing, and I wonder how many girls he's captivated.
Pei Huanxu's only thought is Pei Huanyue; he wants to kill her!
That wretched girl took his sister's place, leaving his sister to live in obscurity in a small, run-down place, while she became the Crown Princess in the palace. Does she really think this is hers?
Pei Huanxu won't know his place if he doesn't give her a good beating!
