Chapter 73
Mu Qingyu sneered: "If Mu Mingyuan was not an important minister in the court at that time, and someone in the Pei family inherited the title, this should not be the outcome, right?"
"That's right!" Chu Xinyuan said without concealment: "A declining marquis who is about to take back his title, and a minister who relies heavily on him. In the eyes of the emperor, it is naturally clear who is more important."
There was a hint of admiration in his eyes, and he said: "The Pei family father and son who have no way to seek help can be regarded as fierce. Pei Shili actually found an opportunity to put a sack on Mu Mingyuan and beat him half to death."
Mu Qingyu smiled, but after laughing, her heart sank and she asked, "What's the result?"
It turned out that she was only four or five years old at that time and didn't know anything. When I heard it today, I felt relieved, but I also had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, Chu Xinyuan said: "How can it be a good thing to sneak attack an important official of the imperial court? After Pei Ji knew about it, he knew that he could not escape, so he knocked his son unconscious and tied him up, sealed the doors and windows, and went to Jingzhao Yin to shoulder the blame! Mu Ming
Far from caring about his father-in-law, he wanted to punish him in the canonical manner, and Pei Ji was beaten with a stick a hundred times. When Pei Shili broke free from his bonds, broke the door and window and rushed to Jing Zhaoyin, Pei Ji had already been tortured and his legs were broken!
"
Mu Qingyu frowned unconsciously.
But Chu Xinyuan slowly said in a voice that seemed to be coming from a distant space: "Mu Mingyuan refused to let go. He dressed himself up miserably and had people carry him up to the palace to meet the king. He said that the person who hurt him was not the one who hurt him.
Pei Ji, there is another person, please ask the emperor to make the decision for him! This is almost like saying that Pei Ji protects his son, the real murderer is Xiaoyao."
Mu Qingyu's eyes burst out with a hint of coldness.
"No matter who did it for the Pei family, Pei Ji has lost both legs and his future is ruined, which is enough to offset. Mu Mingyuan killed everyone, which made the emperor angry. He beat him a few words, and the case was closed. However, the emperor
I summoned Pei Shizhen alone. Pei Shizhen was also a bachelor, and he admitted in front of the emperor that he was the one who beat him."
Mu Qingyu didn't say anything. The emperor summoned him alone. He was afraid that it wasn't Pei Shili who wanted to act alone, but that the emperor wanted to warn him.
Chu Xinyuan said with some appreciation in his tone: "Pei Shizhen knew that the emperor wanted him and Mu Mingyuan to take a step back and let the matter pass. But Pei Shizhen, as a mere sixth-grade riding school, faced
In the face of the emperor's majesty, he was firm and iron-clad, saying that the person who caused the death of my sister will be an enemy forever in this life, and it is impossible to live in peace, even if the emperor punishes him!"
"The Emperor originally favored Mu Mingyuan in this matter, but after all, Weiwu Marquis is a meritorious family. Although no one has succeeded to the title for three generations, and Pei Ji has both legs broken, the Emperor was annoyed that Pei Shili didn't know how to advance or retreat, so he gave him two
The path: either expose this matter and stay on the same page with Mu Mingyuan from now on; or go live in a camp on the outskirts of Beijing and not be allowed to enter Beijing without an edict!"
The former one is to force Pei Shili to put down his hatred for his sister and stop causing trouble for Mu Mingyuan, while the latter one is to directly confine Pei Shili to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing.
Although the camp on the outskirts of Beijing is not far from the capital, he is not allowed to enter the capital without an imperial edict and cannot even meet in person, so there is no chance of any conflict with Mu Mingyuan!
The emperor still favored Mu Mingyuan, and a sad emotion arose in Mu Qingyu's heart. In the face of imperial power, where can fairness come from? In the face of interests, where can justice come from?
As the emperor, as a superior person, the Pei family is already dispensable in his eyes, but Mu Mingyuan is a pillar!
