Boom~
There was a loud sound in Pei's head.
Her face turned pale, and not far away, Mrs. Hou of Dingkang Hou Mansion was already leaning on the servant and looked like she had fainted.
Lu Xinran: "..."
What is wrong with these people?
Or is it that the feng shui here in the capital is not good, and if you live there for a long time, you will easily become prone to fainting?
She glanced in the direction of Dingkanghou's Mansion, and her mind returned to the booklet in the system.
Now, just wait for Tang Quyan and Song Junyan's men to find Pei Xiuzhuo and bring him over. Well, they can also find Pei Xiuzhuo and find the boy next to him.
She thought happily in her heart that the onlookers heard this series of thoughts and were also waiting for Pei Xiuzhuo and his boy to be brought over.
Only a quarter of an hour passed, and still no one was seen.
Half an hour later, the emperor had already helped the queen mother to sit down at the table and chair sent by the palace servants.
As the sun sets, the lanterns come on.
The red lanterns beside the waterside pavilion have been lit up like a long queue.
[Didn’t Pei Xiuzhuo abscond out of fear of crime? Or does he feel that Aoba is very tight-lipped and will not confess him no matter how he is interrogated? 】
[Forget it, let me take another look at Qingye’s past to see if I can find any clues. 】
The evening breeze by the lake blew away the last bit of alcohol. Her eyes did not dare to fall on Zhou Zhengya on the ground, and she pulled Lu Xinlan to move a few steps aside.
As soon as she moved, everyone around her moved their legs and heels.
Even the emperor, the queen mother and the others moved the tables and chairs forward.
[No wonder she is so active. It turns out that Pei Xiuzhuo promised her that after he gets married to Zhou Zhengya, he will take her as his concubine. 】
Being able to transition from being a servant to being half a master is the best way out for Aoba, right?
Lu Xinran looked at it and shook his head.
[I would rather be a poor man's wife than a rich man's concubine. Why doesn't she understand such a simple truth? 】
[He and Zhou Zhengya didn't even have a marriage contract, so he tricked her into having a relationship with him. Such a person is not worth trusting for a lifetime. 】
Lu Xinlan skillfully wanted to squeeze her wrist again, but the sound of rapid footsteps came from not far away, directly interrupting Lu Xinran's random thoughts.
Pei Xiuzhuo was held in the middle by several guards with swords, and he was walking towards them in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
The boy behind him had not had time to change out of his clothes, and there were still obvious blood stains on his chest.
Everything is very clear now.
The guards escorted Pei Xiuzhuo and the young man to the banquet in front of Tang Quyan and Song Jun. Lu Xinran quickly calculated the position between them and found that they were a little far apart and took two steps forward.
The emperor and the queen mother: "..."
They moved their chairs as soon as they moved. In Lu Xinran's eyes, they really looked like fools!
Within ten steps, Lu Xinran hurriedly opened Pei Xiuzhuo's booklet and read it quickly.
【Sure enough, it’s him! 】
[He had originally planned to have his family go to the Zhou Mansion to propose marriage after the Mid-Autumn Festival, but as soon as he coaxed Zhou Zhengya into giving her body, Fang Suxin's scandal broke out. 】
[Having such an ill-behaved mother, her reputation was also implicated. For him, she was no longer the most suitable candidate for his wife. 】
[He had already changed his target. As a result, Zhou Zhengya found out that she might be pregnant. She blocked him in the yard in the afternoon and asked him when he would come to the house to propose marriage. 】
[He was hesitant, but before the dinner, Zhou Zhengya asked Qingye to question him, and he just kept doing it? 】
[But why do this? Even if she has a mother like Fang Suxin, does she still have the Zhou family behind her? When he first fell in love with Zhou Zhengya, wasn't it because of her family background? 】
The deep confusion in her heart, coupled with her frowning and tangled look, made the Queen Mother unable to help but want to tell her the reason.
Her inner thoughts leaked through a sieve, and everyone ate the big melons in the waterside pavilion until they were full.
The Zhou family is finished.
She didn't know, but Pei Xiuzhuo knew, and Zhou Zhengya also knew.
Tang Quyan had already sorted out all the causes and consequences in his mind, but there was only one thing he still hadn't figured out.
Pei Xiuzhuo is already a direct descendant of the Hou family. With such status, his future wife's background will definitely be good, so why should he make such calculations?
"Pei Xiuzhuo, can you plead guilty?"
Pei Xiuzhuo swayed, and he subconsciously nodded in despair, with desolation written all over his earth-like face.
"I think."
"Zhuo'er!"
Mrs. Hou Hou of Dingkang walked quickly with a cane in her eyes, and punched Pei Xiuzhuo in the body.
"What nonsense are you kidding? Why do you have to plead guilty? This girl from the Zhou family... what does she have to do with you!"
As long as they hold on and delay tonight, they will always find a chance to escape guilt.
When the time comes, all the blame will be placed on the young man. If he leaves the capital and goes to the south to stay for a while, and then comes back after the limelight is over, who will say anything else!
Pei Xiuzhuo's ashen eyes gradually became brighter, and he grabbed Old Mrs. Hou's shoulders with his big hands.
"Grandma, I..."
He wanted to ask if he really had a chance to escape guilt?
Then he heard the voice that made him extremely disgusted.
[Aren’t you still thinking about getting away with it and putting the blame on the servants? 】
[Are you treating Lord Tang as a fool, or are you treating the emperor as a fool? Or do you think that Dingkang Hou Mansion can cover the sky with one hand and let everyone follow their eyes and act? 】
[Zhou Zhengya is so pitiful, having such a father and mother, and meeting such a guy with a human face and an animal heart. 】
[It seems that Pei Xiuzhuo is today all because of Cao. Without her connivance and doting, he would not have wanted to become a marquis. 】
[He always compared with his eldest brother. His eldest brother married the eldest daughter of the Minister of Rites. He knew that as the youngest son, his wife would definitely not be the eldest daughter of a high family, so he planned to raise one by himself. 】
[Well, okay, okay, if Lu Xinlan hadn't always had a verbal engagement with the fourth prince, she would have been the one who was raised. After all, cousins are easy to prey on. 】
Lu Xinlan: "?!!"
What kind of terrifying physique does her body have?
Song Junyan glanced at their sisters with an expressionless expression, feeling subconsciously satisfied that he was the fourth prince, not a pervert...
Lao Hou Madam Cao's hand that was still beating paused in the air, and she was at a loss.
What did this girl just say? All...blame her?
[He knew that his desire to marry Zhou Zhengya was considered too high and neither family would agree, so he tried to trick the other party into giving her body to him. 】
[I thought this would be foolproof, but as a result, something happened to Fang Suxin, and Zhou Zhengya accidentally became pregnant. 】
[He changed his target and just wanted to kill people and silence them. How could he be so vicious! What a scumbag! 】
[With his kind of mind, he still wants to be the Marquis of Dingkang? What would happen if the Marquis Mansion was handed over to him! 】
[That’s not right, his grandfather is still alive! His father is still a prince, and he wants to be a Marquis for at least a few decades. When the time comes, he will be hunched over and have a wrinkled face, and maybe the parts will no longer be usable, and he will really be an old Marquis. 】
Everyone: "..."
When you analyze the case, just focus on it, why do you always bring in private goods, and why is it so visual!
How will they face the princes, uncles, and princes in the future? If they accidentally fall on the lower third road, they will have a deadly feud!
