Chapter 870 Forcing the Palace?

Since the first emperor abdicated, Zhao Shun, Chief Manager Zhao Shun, who had been by his side, also followed him to enjoy the blessings.

Now those who have just been promoted are far from Zhao Shun's cleverness and calmness, and they are very frizzy in their work.

The little eunuch threw himself on the ground, sweating all over his face before he had time to wipe it off, so he said in a panic:
"Report, report to Your Majesty, outside... someone is forcing the palace outside!"

Zhu Lianxi and Pei Xiaoran looked at each other.

Pei Xiaoran immediately asked:

"Who is so bold?"

The little eunuch looked up at Pei Xiaoran, then lowered his head again, but he was in a dilemma, hesitating to speak.

"Huh? Why didn't you talk again?"

Impatiently, Zhu Lianxi kicked over the wooden frame in front of him.

Immediately, the copper basin and the wooden frame rolled down to the ground, making a piercing sound, and the water splashed all over the little eunuch's head and face.

The surrounding palace people immediately knelt down in anxiety.

The little eunuch was even more excited, gritted his teeth, and finally said:

"The people outside... are all... all former subordinates of the empress...

He... they said, they came for the empress...

He also said...they won't leave for a day until the Holy Majesty restores the empress's official position! "

"presumptuous!"

Zhu Lianxi shouted angrily.

It's a pity that the only object around him has been kicked over, and there is nothing to kick.

Pei Xiaoran was also surprised, then knelt down on the ground, and said in a slightly anxious voice:

"Your Majesty, they definitely didn't call you here out of nowhere!

Let Xiaoran go and talk to them, Xiaoran promises that they will go back obediently!

I hope His Majesty will not punish them, they, they... they are just impulsive..."

Zhu Lianxi snorted coldly, looked down at her indifferently, her voice was indifferent without any emotion:
"Yeah, only you can make them obedient.

What do I say? "

Pei Xiaoran clenched his lower lip, lowered his head, and stopped talking.

Zhu Lianxi looked at her for a long time before he waved his sleeves and said:

"Go, let them not bother me in the future!
Otherwise, they will be dealt with according to military law! "

"Yes! Thank you, Your Majesty Ron!"

Hearing this, Pei Xiaoran heaved a sigh of relief as if he had received an amnesty, he quickly stood up, and hurriedly walked outside.

But under her repeated explanations and persuasion, the mighty soldiers kneeling outside the palace gate finally dispersed.

This thing, it seems so.

But everyone knows that the actions of these soldiers are tantamount to touching His Majesty's scales.

He was already afraid of the power in Pei Xiaoran's hands.

Seeing that Pei Xiaoran still has the hearts of the people and the army without power, he is naturally even more afraid of her.

Ugh……

What a good intention to do bad things, a bunch of idiots!
The courtiers secretly scolded the group of soldiers.

But things have already been done, even if their [-]th generation ancestors are greeted to cheat corpses, it will have no effect.

Since this incident happened, Pei Xiaoran has also become more cautious, and his actions have become more low-key, and he hardly sees anyone on weekdays.

However, for Zhu Lianxi, what she did was obviously not enough.

Because of Zhu Lianxi's order, from now on, Pei Xiaoran is not allowed to leave the palace at will, even if he takes a step out of the palace gate.

Anyone who lets go will be shot to death!

...how is this different from captivity?
The concubines in the harem do have a rule that they cannot leave the palace at will.

But they still have at least one family leave.

Moreover, if the parents are ill or pass away unfortunately, they can also go home to take care of the illness or see them off.

But looking at the situation of the Holy One, I'm afraid that no matter what happens to her natal family, Pei Xiaoran will never be able to return to her natal family...

In order to avoid further escalation of the conflict between the emperor and empress, a wise minister secretly sent someone to protect Pei Xiaoran's mother, the Wu family.

Even Pei Xiaoran's third brother's wife and children were taken care of together.

However, the sky doesn't follow people's wishes, some things, the more you want to try your best to avoid them, the more you will take the initiative to find them.

Wu is ill.

After winter, the weather suddenly turned cold.

Perhaps it was because Pei Jianbing took care of her too thoughtfully, but it was self-defeating and actually made Wu's sick.

Because as soon as winter came, Pei Jianbing asked Mrs. Wu to put on thick clothes, and installed a few more braziers and charcoal stoves in the house.

As a result...the house is too hot, and the outside is too cold, it is inevitable that people will not get used to it once they enter and exit.

The woman's body is already weak, and she couldn't stand the toss, so she made Wu Shi suffer from the wind and cold.

This disease is hard to guard against, even if a minister sends someone to protect him secretly, it is still difficult to resist the evil cold from entering the body, isn't it?

And hearing the news of Wu's illness, Pei Xiaoran was anxious to go home to visit.

However - can't get out of the palace.

Every palace gate is guarded by a special person, but Pei Xiaoran can't get out of the first palace gate.

There is no way, the Holy Majesty said, whoever dares to let her go will die.

Therefore, the gatekeepers can only be ruthless to the end.

Pei Xiaoran did not vent his anger on them either, after all, the real problem did not lie with them.

She went to find Zhu Lianxi.

But Zhu Lianxi said that he would send someone to visit Wu Shi on her behalf, so she didn't have to worry too much.

But, that's his own mother, how could Pei Xiaoran not be worried?

Moreover, she hasn't returned to her natal home for several days, so she naturally misses her very much.

However, no matter what she said or what she said, Zhu Lianxi just refused to let go.

What else to say, a woman should not have too much involvement with her natal family when she is married and obeys her husband, otherwise, she will not obey women's ways!
Immediately afterwards, several female officials in the palace who were in charge of teaching were called, and they threw a book of Three Obediences and Four Virtues to Pei Xiaoran, asking her to go back and study hard.

So, not surprisingly, the two had a big fight because of this.

"Your Majesty has been in a really bad mood lately..."

"Yes, but when encountering such a thing, who can feel better?"

"Oh... Your Majesty is so nice, I really don't know why Your Majesty..."

"Hush! Do you want to die? How dare you speak ill of His Majesty!

But, I think so too..."

Two brightly dressed young maids hurried past from the other end of the corridor, leaving behind a little whisper.

Zhao's footsteps stopped, but the corners of his mouth evoked a faint smile of unknown meaning.

It seems that her plan can be implemented.

These days, she and Pei Xiaoran are very close.

Whenever he was about to leave, Pei Xiaoran personally sent her to the door, and looked at her with a look of reluctance.

He didn't turn back until he saw her back completely disappearing from his field of vision.

It's no wonder Pei Xiaoran is like this.

Because now in the palace, it's rare for Pei Xiaoran to find someone who can speak intimately.

Of course, Pei Xiaoran also has silkworms.

But after all, Mulberry Silkworm is young, and the strife among these courts is also muddleheaded, so he cannot give Pei Xiaoran effective comfort and suggestions.

—But she can.
