Nagato has such a slim waist

Little thief…?
Feng Jingyao felt a heavy heart.

He glanced sideways and bowed to Pei Jue.

"Your Highness, this is a misunderstanding. My subordinate drank a few glasses too much and made a fool of himself..."

"I don't think this is a joke." Feng Yun sneered, took over the conversation, and pointed at Duan Wudao: "You don't take the main road, but choose the small path and the flower bushes, and sneak into the garden without people. If you are not a thief, then you have bad intentions."

Feng Jingyao glared sideways and pointed at Duan Wu.

"Feng Shierniang, can't you see? He is clearly not sober. How can he act drunk and have bad intentions?"

"Maybe he's pretending?"

Feng Yun and Pei Jue looked at each other, with the corners of their lips slightly raised.

"One pretends to be drunk, and the other pretends to be stupid. There must be some secrets. The mess in the wing is just a trick to deceive people. Otherwise, why did Madam Feng try so hard to stop us from breaking in?"

Tao's face changed drastically.

"I do not have."

Feng Yun smiled, "In front of everyone, everyone has seen it, Madam Feng, are you going to deny it?"

Tao took a few breaths and was speechless.

Of course, she couldn't admit that she did that just to create the illusion of defending Feng Ya's affair...

If Pei Cong was not in that room, they would lose everything.

It's no use saying anything now.

Right now, we can only sacrifice the car to save the driver.

Tao was filled with hatred and anxiety. She ignored Feng Ya's face and loudly rebuked her:
"Just now I was afraid that this slut would lose her temper and do something shameful, bringing shame to the Feng family, so I spoke up to defend her... Twelve Lady, we are all members of the Feng family, and your last name is Feng too, are you really not going to give us any face at all?"

Feng Yun chuckled, "It's well known that I'm disliked by the Feng family. It's better for Madam Feng not to try to establish any connections with them."

Tao was almost mad at her.

"The Pei Mansion invited us to a banquet, so what secrets could there be? You are simply slandering me, which is totally unreasonable!"

Feng Jingyao saw that she had lost her composure and coughed lightly.

After Tao shut up, he said slowly, "King Yonghuai, we are envoys from Qi. You have no right to deal with us."

Envoys have always enjoyed a special political status. Even when two countries are at war, they do not kill envoys, let alone the fact that Jin and Qi are allies.

The Jin officials present all frowned.

Unexpectedly, Pei Cong did not buy it.

"If this incident had not happened in my house, I would have abided by the covenant. However, this is Pei's house, my home. The peace of my home is not subject to law. How can the immunity of the Qi envoy extend beyond my private home?"

These words were like a slap in the face.

Feng Jingyao's expression suddenly changed.

Feng Yun smiled gently.

For the first time, she discovered that Pei Jue was so eloquent and his words were flawless.

"Someone come here." Pei Cong said coldly, "Search for me!"

"Here."

Several guards rushed into the room and searched it inside and out.

Two guards flanked Duan Wu.

Another person started examining Duan Wu in front of everyone.

Duan Wu had regained some consciousness by this time.

He looked at Pei Jue's frosty face and felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He struggled hard and yelled.

"You have no right to search me, no right! I am Lord Feng's man, I am the envoy of Qi... You have no right to deal with me..."

His struggles were in vain.

This is Pei Jue's territory.

Don't even mention searching for him.

Even if Pei Cong wanted to search any of the princes and ministers here, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to escape...

There was a crash.

Duan Wu's clothes were torn.

A hard corner of the lining was exposed.

Zuo Zhong frowned slightly and reached out to pull.

A piece of silk cloth wrapped in oil paper fell into his hands.

Zuo Zhong took a look and presented it to Pei Jue with both hands.

"Your Majesty."

Pei Jue's expression was extremely cold.

He glanced at Feng Jingyao who had a serious expression on his face.

"Open."

Zuo Zhong responded and slowly unfolded the piece of silk.

When the words "Xijing Defense Map" came into view, a low gasp was heard in the courtyard.

"How dare you!" Ao Zheng was the first to speak. He walked out of the crowd, pointed at Feng Jingyao and shouted angrily.

"When the envoy from Qi went to Xijing, everyone in the Jin Dynasty treated him with courtesy. I never expected that you would harbor evil intentions and secretly steal the defense map of Xijing. Your behavior is simply shameless!"

The city defense map is not like gold, silver or jewelry. Since it is stolen, the intention is self-evident.

The officials of Jin were all in a state of whispering and cursing again.

Feng Jingyao subconsciously clenched his palms and smiled coldly.

"If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext. After Feng arrived in Xijing, my whereabouts were always under the eyes of your Tiqisi spies. How can it be a secret? Apart from the Emperor of Jin's note, I have never entered the palace. I don't know where your country's defense map is hidden. Even if I want to steal it, I have no way to start."

He smiled slowly and stared at Pei Jue.

"Mr. Feng is also curious, why would the Xijing defense map be hidden in Prince Yonghuai's mansion?"

What a cunning old fox.

He was well aware of the internal strife in the Jin court, but he still bit back and tried to shift the conflict to Pei Cong.

However, Pei Jue stood tall with a calm expression, not caring about his provocation at all.

"Mr. Feng, this plan won't work. Tell me the truth, how did you get this defense map?"

There was silence all around.

Feng Jingyao's dark eyes turned slightly cold.

In the State of Jin, Pei Cong had the final say. Even Ruan Pu, who dared to fight against the New Party, did not dare to accuse Pei Cong himself to his face.

He suddenly sighed. "Prince Yonghuai has accused me of something for no reason. I have nothing to say."

Pei Jue stared into his eyes, his dark pupils turning cold.

"Come here, take Feng Jingyao and the other criminals to the prison to await trial."

"Prince Yonghuai!" Feng Jingyao shouted loudly, raising his hand and bowing, "I advise you to think twice."

At this time, more and more princes and ministers came to hear the news. In addition to Emperor Qi Yuan Yin, the eldest princess, Wen Xingsui and others, all came.

Feng Jingyao's gaze slowly swept across the crowd, and his words were righteous and stern.

"Jin and Qi are on good terms, and the war has ended. There is no need for Feng to steal the defense map. This is clearly someone intentionally harming us. Do you really want to let the results of the peace talks between Jin and Qi go to waste for the sake of a petty trick?"

There was a whisper all around.

During the years without war, the State of Jin developed rapidly and they lived comfortably.

If Jin forcefully detained Qi's envoy, it would be the first to destroy the alliance between the two countries. If disputes and wars arose again, all the efforts of several years would be wasted...

Feng Jingyao seized on this point and looked at Pei Jue coldly.

"If King Yonghuai destroys the friendship between the two countries for his own selfish reasons, aren't you afraid of becoming a sinner through the ages, or being spurned by the people of Jin?"

One's own selfishness.

He darkly accused Pei Cong of setting up the trap today.

In fact, he was not the only one who thought so. Even some officials in Jin had this idea...

But at this moment, I cannot say it, and it is not convenient to say it.

"How ridiculous." Ao Zheng pointed at Feng Jingyao's nose and started to curse, "You old bastard, you farted right on my Dajin face, do you think I should give you face?"

He then bowed to Pei Cong and said, "Stealing the defense map is a serious matter. Please punish him according to the law."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ruan Pu hurriedly stood up, saluted to everyone, and bowed to Pei Cong.

"In my humble opinion, since this involves the diplomatic relations between the two countries, we should inform the King of Qi before making a decision..."

snort!
Pei Jue looked at him coldly.

"There's a thief in my house, and I need Xiao Cheng to deal with it?"

He called Xiao Cheng by his name, as if he didn't take it seriously at all.

"Take him away! It's my birthday, and I can't bear to see these dirty things."

Guard: "Yes."

"Prince Yonghuai!" Feng Jingyao's face was cold. He allowed the guards to come forward and grab him. He did not struggle, but warned him sternly.

"You disregard the friendship between our two countries and if you reignite the war, you will be a sinner for all eternity!"

Pei Jue sneered.

"Mr. Feng is still not conscious."

He slowly walked in front of Feng Jingyao, suddenly lowered his head, and said something in a very low voice.

Feng Jingyao's face immediately turned pale and he stared at him.

Not moving at all.

The guards took Feng Jingyao away, dragging his feet on the ground like a walking corpse.

Feng Yun was amazed by what she saw.

She was very curious about what Pei Jue said that destroyed Feng Jingyao's mental defenses with just one sentence?

"Twelve Lady, that's your uncle!" Mrs. Tao's face turned pale, and she limply fell to the ground, tears streaming down her face like beads from a broken string. "That's your own uncle, you beast, how could you be so cruel? You beast!"

Feng Yun said nothing and watched with an expressionless face.

Several maids came forward, grabbed Tao and left.

Behind her was Feng Ya, who was in dishevel...

It took only a short time for Feng Ya to go from joy to sorrow. She looked at Pei Jue standing there with an imposing manner, cold-hearted and cold-faced, refusing to even look at her. Her dream was shattered silently, and she was completely hopeless, crying and laughing at the same time.

"I didn't have an affair with anyone, and I didn't steal the defense map..."

"It was Feng Shier Niang who framed me... I didn't do anything, I just liked Prince Yong Huai... He said he would take me as his concubine... Feng Shier Niang was jealous by nature and couldn't tolerate me... That's why she did this cruel thing... I am innocent, I am innocent..."

She cried and shouted, and was dragged by the old woman and staggered.

Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to me even though I shouted at the top of my lungs.

Pei Jue raised his sleeves and said to everyone:

"The banquet has not yet ended, please come and have a drink."

Feng Yun also smiled and invited the ladies and nobles to the back hall, "Please come in, please come in. Today is supposed to be the king's big day, how could such a mistake have happened? I'm sorry to have embarrassed you all."

Everyone walked in while exchanging greetings.

One of the ladies couldn't help but said with a smile, "Princess, don't blame me for being nosy. I just heard what Madam Feng said. You intend to keep your concubine sister in your house. Do you want to take a concubine for the prince?"

Feng Yun lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly.

"Tao did mention it to me... I originally thought that since she was from the same family, I wanted to give her some respect, but I never thought that she would be so disappointing. Forget it, let's not talk about this annoying thing..."

The lady immediately praised her magnanimity.

Feng Yun said in a gentle and clear voice, smiling: "It is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines. I never restrict him. But the king is picky and there are not many who he likes. I am worried about that."

"That's right. King Yonghuai is such a man. How can an ordinary, ordinary woman catch his eye? In this world, how many women are as beautiful and talented as the princess?"

"Ma'am, thank you for your compliment. Come, come, please take a seat."

"More wine."

A group of women were all smiling.

Without the Feng family members, the following banquet went extremely smoothly.

Both the host and the guests were having a great time. After the banquet was over and all the guests were seen off one by one, Feng Yun asked Pei Cong.

"What did you say to Feng Jingyao just now? Why does he look so distraught?"

Pei Jue raised his eyebrows, "Why don't you tell me first, Yunniang, how many concubines are you going to take for me?"

Did he know all this?
Feng Yun found it a little funny, raised his eyes and looked serious.

"No one will say anything if a man has a few concubines, but if a woman is not virtuous and respectful, she will be criticized. I just want to be treated decently, so can't the king tolerate it?"

Pei Ran looked at her deeply.

Even though I knew she was pretending, I still softened my heart.

"Let's go." He put his arm around Feng Yun's waist and slowly walked towards the mansion.

March is the month when spring is in full swing and everything comes back to life.

The flowers in the mansion are in bloom, pink peaches, white pears, green willows, pink apricots. The breeze blows, bees and butterflies fly around, making people intoxicated.

Pei Jue lowered his head, looked at her slightly curved eyes, and said calmly: "I told Feng Jingyao that the one who wanted to kill him was Xiao Cheng." (End of this chapter)
