Huan Yue returned to Qing'e Palace.
Cuizhu was somewhat surprised to hear that Qian Shi had died.
Not only did Chang Ziyu actually do it, she also drugged Qian Shi.
Chang Ziyu must be executed by slow slicing! Did you think we couldn't deal with her?
Lady Ji sighed, "Chang Ziyu still wants to harm the Empress? To harm the Empress is worse than harming her own mother..."
Cuizhu said, "Qian Shi has been quite good to her, but she doesn't acknowledge her mother. She probably wouldn't even want to be born into the Pei family."
The cat snorted coldly: "Does she think the Chang family will be happy if she wants to be born into the Chang family? Does she even deserve to be born into the royal family?"
Ji nodded: "Being born into an imperial family is either due to ancestral blessings or good deeds in one's previous life. Chang Ziyu is so immoral, who knows where she will be reincarnated in her next life."
Huan Yue changed his clothes and sat down to rest.
An imperial edict arrived: "Qian committed adultery, and Chang Ziyu, her biological daughter, murdered her mother. Therefore, Chang Ziyu will be executed by slow slicing. The Qing'e Palace will be renamed Huan."
Huan Yue thanked the emperor. The matter of the fake heiress was over.
Cuizhu felt that whether the Crown Princess acknowledged the Chang family or not was unimportant. This was the truth.
The cat asked, "How is the Li family?"
Nobody knows, and I guess she doesn't care.
As long as she lives well in the Pei family, the life or death of Qian Shi and Chang Ziyu is not important.
Besides, even if Madam Li dies, there's no fear of no one burying her; the Pei family still has descendants, so they have to give her face.
The eunuch came to report: "Pei Bo has returned to serve his grandmother."
The cat blinked: "Is Pei Bo serving you? Or is it time to see Li Shi off to her death?"
After all, it was Li who did the trick of switching the beams and pillars. Did Li really think she wouldn't die?
Lady Ji worried, "What if Pei Bo comes looking for us again?"
Cuizhu said, "Empress Pei no longer bears the surname Pei, so what is he looking for? He might as well go find his concubine and son."
There are still quite a few people enough to form a large family; this must be the final grace bestowed by the saint.
The Pei family, after all, raised the empress, so they were given this opportunity.
If Pei Bo is truly courting death, no one can be blamed.
Chaoyun asked the Empress, "What should we do about Madam Qian?"
Huan Yue thought for a moment and said, "I request an imperial decree to bestow upon you the title of Lady of the County? And to observe the funeral rites for a Lady of the County."
Everyone exclaimed, "The Empress is so kind!"
Huan Yue immediately took action and came up with a title for Lady Qian: "Lady of Shiping County," which would be respectable enough.
Giving the dead face is mostly for the sake of the living; if the Pei family has any backbone, they can do without it.
As for Pei Bo, he has nothing, and whether he has backbone or not is irrelevant.
After finishing his work, it got dark, and Huan Yue noticed that the Crown Prince had something else to attend to.
It's normal for men to have problems; this time it's definitely not because of his "white moonlight" (a term of endearment for a past love).
Unless he's brain-dead, any other "white moonlight" would be far better than Chang Ziyu.
As for what kind of "white moonlight" that scoundrel has in his heart, Huan Yue doesn't care; it's something he can't care about.
**
Pei Bo returned to the Pei family home, but it no longer felt like a home.
But after he tidied himself up, a new scene unfolded in the spring.
After all, the Pei family has secured a good location in Sheng'an. Pei Bo's wife is dead, and he's still young, so why can't they do it?
When he arrived at Qinglong Hall, it was already bustling with activity.
The others were driven out of the Pei family, but now that the master has returned, they quickly gathered again.
Pei Huanxiu has been released by the Duke of Qi, so perhaps no one will kill him anymore. Although he is only eleven years old, Pei Huanxiu is much more mature than before.
Pei Huanxin's mother came with her newborn son; this child was hope. Even if Pei Huanxin was gone, the concubine still had hope.
Is Pei Huanjiao the only daughter? She's still so charming, yet with a different allure.
Pei Bo was extremely satisfied! So many people were surrounding him!
Although Pei Huanzhao was not present, his family was still the future of the Pei family.
Pei Jing did not return.
Pei Huanli and ten-year-old Pei Huanbi also had to rely on their uncle; otherwise, Pei Huanbi, being so beautiful, would have been sold in a couple of years.
All Pei Huanli wanted was a stable life.
Li Shi looked at this large group and didn't like it at all.
I'm used to living alone, so why would I need a whole group of people?
In the past, having more maids was to pave the way for a phoenix's destiny.
These are all money-losing products.
Lady Li looked at those concubines with lecherous glints in her eyes. Did she not know what they were thinking? They were only after her things; they wanted to die!
Therefore, the Li family was sinister.
People were a little afraid of her, but the Pei family was the best off; life would be tough without them.
Everything depends on Pei Bo; he is the old woman's only grandson and will take care of her in her old age and see her off in her final days.
Pei Bo sat down to calm himself down.
Life in prison is certainly unbearable for a human being; it must have made him extremely haggard.
His concubines and daughters surrounded him, weeping, and his youngest son also wept.
For a time, Qinglong Hall was filled with the sound of weeping, and the more they cried, the more aggrieved they felt.
I wasn't this heartbroken even when my ancestors died; I was sobbing, thinking I was going to die.
Li was furious! There were too many people today, she had to be patient.
No one is taking care of Qian's funeral arrangements yet, so there's no rush.
Lady Qian wasn't exactly popular either. She treated her concubines and illegitimate daughters badly, so how could they treat her well? Although she might rely on Pei Huanzhao in the future, didn't she still have Pei Bo for now?
Pei Bo had no feelings for Qian Shi, nor for Chang Ziyu; at most, he hated her for being useless!
Pei Bo pointed at Pei Huanjiao: "How can you be so useless?"
Pei Huanjiao was stunned.
Lady Li chimed in, "If Princess Yongmu can go with Prince Zheng, why don't you go?"
Pei Huanjiao froze. Die? The Prince of Zheng would kill her!
Now, Pei Huanqiao is by Xie Xuan's side, and not only has the prince died, but she is also in prison.
Pei Bo was very dissatisfied with his clothes. He wanted to wear the best. As long as Huan Yue grew up in the Pei family, it didn't matter if he didn't recognize him.
Pei Huanjiao shared the same sentiment. Regardless of Huan Yue's surname, he had been raised in the Pei family for sixteen years.
Pei Bo had just come out and needed to find someone. It would cost money anyway.
Li was very vigilant, gripping her cane tightly.
Pei Bo made up his mind and decided to keep things simple, heading towards the backyard.
Madam Li quickly stopped him: "What are you doing?"
Pei Bo said, "Aren't I supposed to support you? How can I support you if I don't have money? Don't you want a better life?"
Madam Li was furious: "Go yourself! Don't even think about my little things! You're the one who supports me, and you expect me to support you? You useless thing!"
Pei Bo said, "Isn't everything you have mine? You killed my grandfather, how will you face the Pei family ancestors after this?"
Li screamed!
Pei Bo was a little scared.
Concubines, illegitimate children, and concubines should all stay away. The Li family is someone you can't afford to offend.
If you mess with him, you'll be in jail soon. Anyway, he's her grandson.
Pei Huanjiao pondered, "Pei Bo isn't a good person either; relying on him will only lead to ruin."
Pei Huanli planned to find Huan Yue as soon as possible and find her someone who was somewhat reliable.
Relying on the Pei family is really not an option anymore.
With so many concubines and children watching, Pei Bo regained his momentum and shoved the old woman away.
Li fell backward, crashing into a rock.
I looked up and saw lights, darkness, and a sky full of stars.
"Grandmother!" Madam Ma screamed!
"Ancestor!" A group of people rushed over in a panic.
Pei Bo took two steps forward; there were no lights, it was too dark. He turned around and saw a sea of blood.
Pei Bo was a little confused. How could he have fallen and bled so much? And the old woman was trying to extort money from him?
A strange light flashed in Pei Huanxiu's eyes. Pei Bo was finished; he was a man.
