After being tortured to death, Hou Men’s legitimate daughter returns and goes crazy killing her
Chapter 122 The Uninvited Guest
Suihan was a little panicked. She glanced at her wife nervously and blamed her. The things she prepared were too expensive and Prime Minister Pei simply refused to accept them!
On the other hand, Gu Qingyuan was much calmer, but this was not because she was so powerful, but because she had expected all of this.
"What are you saying, Prime Minister Pei? Now there are only you and me in this alley. When I bought this jade pendant, there was no trace left behind. Even if the court really wanted to investigate, nothing would be found. , What's more, this is a thank you gift, not a bribe, and the law does not say that you cannot give thank you gifts." Gu Qingyuan smiled, and although his tone was slow and leisurely, it made it impossible to find anything wrong. .
With that said, Gu Qingyuan took the box from Sui Han and handed it to Pei Qingci.
Pei Qingci still didn't answer it. He looked at the box in Gu Qingyuan's hand, thought for a moment, and said, "In that case, is this jade pendant given to me by Madam?"
Gu Qingyuan nodded and corrected: "It's a thank you gift."
"If you want to thank me as a gift, I don't need the gift. That little benefit is not worth such an expensive gift of thanks. But if it is a personal gift from Madam, then the gift will be disrespectful." Pei Qingci said with a smile.
Gu Qingyuan pursed her lips, smiled slightly, and said, "Yes, if Prime Minister Pei understands it this way, that's okay."
"In that case, I'll keep it." After saying that, Pei Qingci took the box from Gu Qingyuan's hand. He opened the box, picked up the jade pendant inside, and said with a smile: "The jade pendant given by the madam, the true form." I even like it, and I will ask someone to give me a return gift in a few days, so please don’t refuse, madam.”
Gu Qingyuan couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Pei Qingci accepting the gift.
Just when she was about to leave, Pei Qingci spoke again: "Would you like to come in and have some tea?"
Gu Qingyuan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No, I'm not thirsty."
"Madam, you have come all the way to fulfill your duty as a landlord. What's wrong? Madam, are you unwilling to fulfill your obligations?" Pei Qingci said the last word with a trace of resentment in his tone.
After Gu Qingyuan noticed it, she no longer refused. She didn't want to offend Pei Qingci by missing a cup of tea. After all, this person could help her or cheat her.
After drinking tea, Gu Qingyuan took Suihan back to the Duke's Mansion.
On the way, Sui Han let out a long breath and said, "I'm really scared to death, madam. The air pressure in Prime Minister Pei's house is so low. I feel scared inside." Sui Han patted his chest and said with lingering fear. .
After listening to Sui Han's words, Gu Qingyuan thought of the scene when he first met Pei Qingci.
The atmosphere at that time was even more frightening than this time. Pei Qingci today is already considered gentle.
After Sui Han said these words, he suddenly thought of something and said with a panicked look: "Madam! This slave suddenly thought of something big!"
"What's the big deal?" Gu Qingyuan paused: "Is it possible that when I return home, how do I explain it to the Duke?"
She had already thought about this.
But according to the Duke's personality, he probably wouldn't care.
The matter has already been brought to the attention of the Capital City, and everyone who deserves to be lost has been lost. In this case, he doesn't mind making the matter bigger. In this case, the Duke's Mansion can still gain a reputation for not showing favoritism.
Even if the Duke wants to take care of it, Gu Qingyuan still has something to say. If he really can't resist it, then it doesn't matter if he lets Chen come back.
Anyway, her purpose was to embarrass the Duke's government, and now that she had achieved her goal, there was no need for her to offend the Duke in order to punish a man who could live a long life.
After all, the Duke is still alive and he is still the head of the family no matter what. So, she didn't pay much attention to this matter.
When Suihan heard this, he immediately shook his head: "Madam, you are confused! This is not what this slave is talking about!"
"It's not this thing?" Gu Qingyuan frowned: "If it's not this thing, then what is it?"
"Master Pei!" Sui Han sighed and said, "That jade pendant, Prime Minister Pei said you gave it to him in a private name. If this spreads, wouldn't it become a private gift?"
Suihan had wanted to say this all morning, but as soon as she entered Prime Minister Pei's mansion, she forgot all about it because of the pressure.
Although I think about it now, they have already left.
Gu Qingyuan sighed and said helplessly: "But if this reason is not used, Prime Minister Pei will not accept it at all."
"Then what happens in the future..." What Sui Han is worried about is what is going to be spread out. Xiang Pei is a man, and if the matter gets out, everyone will only say that he is a coquettish person, but when it comes to his wife, he becomes a coquettish one. When he thinks about it, Sui Han sighed unconsciously due to the rumors that his wife might face in the future.
Gu Qingyuan looked at Sui Han, she understood what Sui Han meant.
"Don't worry, this matter won't spread." Gu Qingyuan paused and continued: "You have to know that if this matter spreads, it will not be good for Prime Minister Pei's reputation, even if it is for his own sake. With his reputation, he won’t tell anyone about it.”
While talking, the carriage arrived at the Duke's Mansion.
As soon as he got off the carriage, Gu Qingyuan saw Jiaorui standing at the door with a sad face.
Before she could speak, Jiaorui ran up first and said seriously: "Madam, something big has happened!"
Gu Qingyuan looked at the panicked Jiaorui and said with a smile: "Why are you so nervous? As long as a person is alive, nothing big can happen."
For someone who has died once, only death can scare her, and other things are simply not worth mentioning to her.
"Madam, you are really leisurely. The prince has already led his thugs to your yard. I think he is in a menacing manner. It must be because he has come with bad intentions!" Jiaorui said sternly.
When Suihan heard this, he was also very nervous: "Madam, what should I do?"
"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Gu Qingyuan said.
Seeing this, Jiaorui shook her head helplessly and said, "Madam, you may have gone too far too calmly."
"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Does the prince really dare to hit me?" Gu Qingyuan thought, it would be okay if Li Shichen really did it. Anyway, he would go to court tomorrow, and then he would sue Li Shichen as well. .
Hearing this, Jiaorui sighed and said: "Of course the prince doesn't dare to hit you, but the people in your yard are unlucky. I asked Wu Yue to help me take it out from you today, but the prince detained me He entered the yard and is not allowed to come out now. I went to the yard once but was kicked out by Chuntao."
At the end of the sentence, Jiaorui's eyes gradually became cold: "This Chuntao is really arrogant. He even dares to look at me. It's simply too much."
When Gu Qingyuan heard this, he nodded and agreed: "Yes, I just stayed outside for a while, and things will change when I come back to the Duke's Mansion. It seems that this Chuntao really cares about eating and not fighting!" (This chapter over)
