Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 734

The court lady was kicked heavily in the chest, but she remained motionless, holding the glazed cup, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty misunderstood, the menu for this palace banquet is prepared in advance."

"Prepare in advance?" Pei Cairen sneered: "Didn't she say she was sick? Didn't she sleep for several days and nights? Why did she recover from her illness when the crown prince came back?"

Her eyes sank, and her voice suddenly tensed: "Zhao Xiwei, could it be that you weren't injured at all, and all this was just acting for us?"

She was spending money and relying on relationships, and finally found a suitable little girl outside the palace. After some coercion and temptation, she let the girl obediently obey orders.

Unexpectedly, this girl is useless, the plan that was supposed to be seamless, unexpectedly missed at the last moment.

Blame it on that kid Pei Zhenzhen for being so softhearted that he actually helped outsiders!

Fortunately, the sky has eyes, Zhao Xiwei fell to the ground in the chaos, and was stabbed by a shelf—unfortunately, it was only stabbed!
Miss her child, but was stabbed a bloody hole by this bitch!

Thinking of this, Pei Cairen couldn't hide the hostility all over his body.

She stared at Zhao Xiwei viciously: "I'm just saying, the coat rack fell, why didn't it stab right through it?"

"Sister Pei!" Concubine Shu frowned.

"elder sister!"

The other concubines at the banquet also yelled together, fearing that there would be no accidents, they hurriedly persuaded: "Sister is angry, so bear with it for now, this is a celebration banquet..."

"Fuck!" Pei Cairen spat in one gulp: "Your son was almost killed, can you bear it?" She was so angry that she did not forget to sprinkle salt on the wound, "Oh, I forgot, you guys No son!"

"..."

Everyone choked, and suddenly lost their voices collectively.

Pei Cairen smiled "humph", and mocked: "You don't have sons, how do you know my heart? Oh, I forgot, you don't even have daughters!" She looked at Concubine Shu coldly, with deep disdain , "Some people have daughters, but they don't have a motherly heart!"

Concubine Shu was stunned, and there was a wave of turbulence on her gentle face: "Sister is angry, she can say anything, why bother to say such hurtful words."

"Is this hurting someone?" Pei Cairen's eyes were tight, "Back then my sister hurt me and humiliated me, almost killing me, did you ever think that I would still have a bright future?"

As soon as he said a word, everyone was shocked.

Pei Cairen, are you back in favor?
when did it happen?
The wives' eyes flickered slightly, and after a while they recalled it.

King Jin was on the line of life and death, and Pei Cairen, as a mother, was devastated. If the emperor continued to neglect her, it would be really heartless and ungrateful.

Zhao Xiwei completely calmed down at this moment.

Li Xuanye said that the emperor was very concerned about the injury of King Jin.

I think this "caring" is not only out of pity for the son, but also has the meaning of check and balance...

This time, she led troops to encircle the palace and pulled the Wang family down completely. In addition, the third uncle returned victoriously, and the Zhao family, which was already in trouble, jumped to the clouds overnight.

But the emperor didn't trust the Zhao family.

The queen's death was a hurdle that couldn't be overcome. Before the truth was known, it was impossible for the emperor to let the Zhao family dominate.

So what is the best way to check and balance the Zhao family?
Just can't let the Pei family collapse.

Therefore, the emperor did not pursue the matter of the alliance between the Pei family and the queen mother. He just gave the Pei family a title of "ineffective rescue" and asked the imperial censor to impeach him. Sun stayed in the palace as an errand.

……

Zhao Xi looked slightly at Pei Cairen.

Pei Cairen was full of hatred for her, she had always known it, but she never cared about it.

People will always concentrate all their energies on dealing with the most powerful opponent, thus ignoring those weaker enemies invisibly.

And it was this small negligence that just happened to give him a fatal blow.

Now that Pei Cairen, who has been favored again, has made a comeback, can she still underestimate the enemy like before?

"Then congratulations to your empress." Zhao Xiwei took the glazed cup handed over by the palace maid, and said with a smile, "I just have a question to ask your empress—"

She casually played with the small spoon, and the corners of her lips curled into a hint of sarcasm: "Your Majesty hurt me that day, and almost killed me. Have you ever thought that I will have a bright future?"

"You? Early?" Pei Cairen seemed to have heard some shocking joke, "Dreaming!"

"Oh?"

Pei Cairen looked at a fool, and said leisurely: "That's right, you were very open-minded when you surrounded the palace to rescue him that day. But don't forget - there are people who are more open-minded than you!"

She smiled coldly: "In terms of merit, you are quite big, but in terms of hard work, I'm afraid you won't have a share! Stand out? With Miss Gu here, do you think you can still stand out? What daydreams!"

After Pei Cairen finished teasing, his bad breath eased a little: "You don't think that you can change anything by begging for nothing, right? Might post it like this again!"

"..."

Her voice was high-pitched and powerful, and after such a call, no one in the entire hall could hear her clearly.

Not to mention that the expressions of the wives changed again and again, even the civil and military seats fell into dead silence.

The table of the female family members of the Zhao family was the most embarrassing. The old lady pressed her chest, her face turned purple, and she could tell she was very angry.

The third lady hugged the two children, her eyes were also full of worry.

Xu Yunjiao curled her lips, and just about to say something, Zhao Chengyan pulled her sleeves: "Mother." Then she shook her head lightly.

Xu Yunjiao didn't think much of it at first, so she simply stayed out of it and watched the excitement.

This dead girl has been against her everywhere in the house, she never thought that she would have today, right? !

But who knew, Zhao Xiwei wasn't angry at all.

With a click, the silver spoon was thrown into the cup. She leaned back on the chair leisurely and smiled faintly at Pei Cairen: "Your Majesty doesn't know something. As for the repeated invitations, I came to the banquet as a last resort because of His Majesty's face."

Pei Cairen smiled: "Your Majesty invites you again and again? King Jin is still lying on the bed with his wounds unhealed. It is considered kind of His Majesty not to chop off your head, and he will invite you to the banquet again and again?"

"Yes!" Zhao Xiwei said without thinking, "His Majesty sent people to remind him several times in a row, and finally let Eunuch Cao deliver the message himself!"

Anyway, the hatred has already been forged, it is better to go deeper.

The emperor used Pei Cairen as a pawn first, so it is okay for her to push Pei Cairen back after the tide, right?
Pei Cairen was really enraged.

She could not care about the emperor's feelings for her-never had anyway.

But as a mother, she couldn't help but care about the emperor's feelings for her son—especially when she saw the emperor favoring an outsider!Could it be that in the eyes of the emperor, any cat or dog is more precious than her children? !

Her eyes seemed to shoot poisonous arrows, and she angrily said: "Your Majesty asked you to come, but you really dare to come!? How dare you!"

She rushed to the front of the table in one stride, "He let you enter the palace, you dare to enter the palace! Have you forgotten how you stabbed my son? Let me tell you, as long as I live for a day, I will remember this grudge one day!"

"Your Majesty!" The palace servants knelt down at her feet in unison, for fear that she would throw the table over on impulse and hit others.
