But Bai Zhi didn't wait for Pei Jingyi's instructions, but heard him say: "Everyone, retreat first."

As soon as he spoke, the guards left without hesitation, and Bai Zhi could only leave angrily.

Inside the courtyard, He thought Pei Jingyi was afraid of being laughed at by his subordinates, so she stepped forward and said:

"Yes, family disgrace should not be made public, and there is no need to make it known to everyone. How about this, I will take her back to the Pei family and deal with her. Anyway, the Xie family doesn't want her."

After saying that, she pretended to go forward and hold Xie Shuyao down.

But just as she passed by Pei Jingyi, Pei Jingyi suddenly drew the sword from his waist, put it against her forehead, and said expressionlessly:

"How about you take him back? It will be convenient for you to frame him with a crime and then kill him secretly."

He didn't expect Pei Jingyi to do this suddenly. She was stunned for a moment. Looking at Pei Jingyi's fierce eyes, she said without confidence: "You, what are you doing?"

The other members of the Pei family wanted to step forward to help, but when they saw Pei Jingyi's fierce eyes, they dared not move.

The uncle's family was still muttering: "Didn't they say it was foolproof? What's going on?"

In the end, only Pei Xiaoqi stepped forward, pointed at Pei Jingyi with an unhappy look on his face and said, "Nonsense, this is your stepmother, put down the sword!"

Pei Jingyi turned his wrist and moved the sword forward a little, piercing He's forehead, revealing a little bright red blood.

He said coldly: "I have a mother, not her, and I already know everything you have done."

Pei Xiaoqi had already thought that if Pei Jingyi knew what happened that year, it must be Xie Shuyao who told him.

Although he felt guilty, he did not look nervous at all.

After all, he was the one who killed his wife with his own hands, so his psychological quality is extremely strong.

He also reprimanded Pei Jingyi in return:

"This woman told you, don't listen to her nonsense. We have been relatives for decades, and you actually believe her and not us? This woman is really a disaster. If I had known this, I would never have let her in."

Seeing He's pale face, Pei Xiaoqi said sternly: "Put down the sword quickly, are you trying to kill your father and mother? You unfilial son, I am your father, what I say is useless."

Thinking of the cold stares he had received and their slandering of his biological mother, Pei Jingyi's dark eyes were as dark as the deep sea, surging with hidden turmoil, "Now that they know you are my father, how ridiculous!"

Seeing that the Pei family members were unrepentant and were trying to keep a tough attitude, Xie Shuyao felt even more sympathetic towards Pei Jingyi.

With such a group of family members, I don’t know what kind of life he lived as a child. No wonder he is so indifferent.

She came forward and intervened at the right time, "That's right, how shameless! When you didn't want to acknowledge me, you just threw me out to fend for myself. Now that you want to reap the benefits, you keep calling me dad."

At this point, she did not forget to bring up the past, "You asked me to remarry Pei Jiaze in the first place. Bah, only you can come up with such wicked things."

Seeing that she had also joined in, He became anxious:

"What nonsense are you talking about, Jing Yi, don't believe her. Don't you know that she has had a strange man outside for a long time and often stays out all night? The baby in her belly is definitely not yours. We really haven't done anything to let your mother down. If you don't believe me, you can check it out."

It goes without saying that the He family must have had a backup plan, and Pei Jingyi's biological mother's grave must have been cleaned up.

Pei Jingyi was more decisive than Xie Shuyao had imagined: "Okay, now that everyone is here, let's get to the bottom of this matter today."

He suddenly felt something was wrong when she heard this. Just as she was about to meet Pei Xiaoqi's eyes, she heard Pei Jingyi order, "Come here, take these people down!"
