In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

Chapter 855 Pei Huizhou and the Queen’s shocking conspiracy against Bai Lu!

Just like Bai Lu and Bai Yansong, they always say that the other party doesn't love them... They talk about it whenever they meet, but in the end it can't solve the most fundamental problem.

That's a lifelong knot! It's a tangled mess that can't be cut or untangled, so just ignore it.

He said to the emperor, "However... General Pei does have a point. If you just throw General Pei into prison, how will the people of the world view Your Majesty?"

"There needs to be evidence."

Pei Huizhou sneered, he had already asked Liangzhou to make arrangements.

Liangzhou will not be defeated!

Even if we were defeated... we wouldn't be defeated so quickly!

It will take at least ten days or half a month.

After ten days or half a month, I had already gotten help and rescued myself!

But he had just eaten a steamed bun in the prison, and the second dinner had not yet arrived, when the governor of Liangzhou was sent there!

It was sent back by Duke Liang himself!

On the day he was sent back, Duke Liang didn't even take off his armor and broke directly into the imperial study.

He grabbed the governor of Liangzhou and burst into tears in front of the emperor, saying, "Your Majesty, I am guilty! I shouldn't have saved General Pei..."

The emperor spat out the tea before he could even take a sip. He looked at the Duke of Liang and the governor of Liangzhou in front of him, feeling uneasy.

Then the Duke of Liang said in a hoarse voice, "I use the Governor of Liang Province as a witness! I report General Pei for colluding with foreign nations, becoming sworn brothers with the Turkic Khan, collaborating with the enemy and betraying his country. He has abandoned the people of Liang Province, Qing Province, and Ping Province, and even used tens of thousands of innocent people in Ping Province as a tower of fame, stepping on their corpses to rise to power!"

The emperor's face was gloomy. He looked at the governor of Liangzhou and said to him, "Tell me, what exactly is going on?!"

"......" After he finished speaking, the emperor fell into a long silence.

Zhang, the steward next to him, saw that something was wrong and handed over a pot of tea. He said with a smile, "Your Majesty is angry about General Pei and is in a trance for a moment!"

"Come, have a sip of Rainforest Longjing tea, Your Majesty, to wake yourself up. We... must deal with General Pei and the Governor of Liangzhou!"

"Right now, Duke Liang is waiting downstairs."

If there are witnesses and evidence, how can the emperor not deal with Pei Huizhou?

How could those on the front lines, having heard the evidence provided by the Liangzhou governor, let Pei Huizhou go so easily? And how could the emperor convince the people?

After hearing this, the emperor came back to his senses. He tightly grasped the pot of pre-rain Longjing tea, and a trace of reluctance flashed in his eyes.

Pei Huizhou was the child he had watched grow up, and his bloodline was extraordinary... This child was like his own, how could he bear to deal with him like this?!

The emperor actually shed a line of tears.

Men don't shed tears easily, let alone the emperor, who actually cried in front of Duke Liang.

He sighed deeply and said with great disappointment, "This kid framed Bai Lu before, and I endured it!"

"He turned against the Crown Prince and changed his previous loyal appearance. I tolerated it!"

"He's abusing his power on the front lines again, and I've put up with it! At least give him a life!"

"But this act of treason must not be tolerated! I am the Son of Heaven for all the people of the world, and I have the right to be responsible for them!"

"Come here! Pass on my order to execute Pei Huizhou in the autumn!"

Now, it’s only ten days away from autumn!

When Duke Liang heard this, he felt a surge of emotion in his heart.

Seeing the emperor so sad, he finally made a decision and felt relieved.

Now that the emperor has ordered the execution, Pei Huizhou should not encounter any more accidents!

He felt relieved and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, please don't be sad. For the greater good of the country, General Pei's death was well deserved!"

The emperor looked at the Duke of Liang's imposing appearance, and his chest rose and fell rapidly!

Although what Duke Liang said made sense, why did he find it so harsh?

Suddenly, he felt a sweetness in his Adam's apple and was about to spit out blood.

Prime Minister Wang, who was standing next to him, hurried forward, took out a small basin to collect the blood, and then took out a large bottle with ease. He poured the collected blood into the bottle on the bookshelf at the back of the imperial study to avoid waste.

I don't know what use it is though...

But I feel that it is such a waste to always vomit blood!!

Then the emperor continued in a cold voice: "Let's kill the governor of Liangzhou as well."

"Duke Liang, although you did a great job transporting Pei Huizhou this time, you didn't do anything good yourself!"

The Duke of Liang immediately knelt and apologized, "Your Majesty, the Governor of Liang Province and I are relatives. I was wrong. I know that I have been implicated. I apologize for my crime."

The emperor nodded and said, "Keep a good eye on your wife and don't let her lead her family into doing anything stupid."

"This time, the Liangzhou governor has lost his head, and that's the end of it! As for you, there's no need to talk about being punished by association."

"The merits outweigh the faults, so let it be."

Duke Liang breathed a sigh of relief and immediately knelt down to express his gratitude.

Soon, the imperial edict of execution was brought to the prison by Duke Liang himself.

Pei Huizhou knelt in the damp and dark cell, with a layer of straw beside him.

Hearing this, he looked up suddenly in disbelief.

After the imperial edict was read, he immediately stood up and said to Duke Liang with red eyes: "Did he really say that?!"

"His Majesty has personally commanded me to deliver the imperial edict! The edict was embroidered stitch by stitch on a special satin. Don't you know whether it's real or not?"

Duke Liang looked at Pei Huizhou with a look of sarcasm on his face: "You are so shrewd, but you don't even know that I am deliberately deceiving you, or that His Majesty really dislikes you?"

Pei Huizhou stood there, speechless for a long time...

Duke Liang said again.

"Also, your marriage with Bai Lu has been cancelled as well. His Majesty has already reprimanded the Empress in the palace for her random matchmaking. We can't let her become a widow and then be a widow again when she remarries!"

If the engagement is not cancelled before the execution in autumn, Bai Lu will be labeled as a widow who brings down her husband. How can the emperor be happy about this?

The emperor immediately cancelled the marriage in his imperial study and severely reprimanded the queen.

The queen was heartbroken when she heard the crying, and she was also surprised and happy.

If I had known this would happen, I would not have arranged the marriage and would not have let Bai Lu marry Pei Huizhou.

Oh, that's really unnecessary.

So the marriage was dissolved.

At that time, we will tell the outside world that the person who delivered the imperial edict was a Turk in disguise, who wanted to take advantage of Pei Huizhou and Bai Lu's wedding to do something stupid. Anyway, all the faults will be put on the Turks.

No one saw the imperial edict issued by the queen with their own eyes, so who knows whether it is true or false.

Even if some people find it absurd, as long as the Queen doesn't admit it, the Emperor doesn't admit it, Bai Lu doesn't admit it, and Pei Huizhou is dead...that's the end of the matter.

Pei Huizhou clenched his fists tightly upon hearing this, his eyes brimming with rage. "Why is Bai Lu being cared for, nurtured, and admired so lovingly by everyone? Why do all of you pamper her?!"

"And yet, I... I've been through no less than she has, yet I'm being wronged, insulted, and rejected by the world!"

"Why?"

"Why!"

Duke Liang frowned, completely confused. "You're truly heartless when you say this! The Empress and the others haven't treated you harshly. It's you who won't let yourself off the hook!"

"Why is Bai Lu loved by everyone, and why are you disliked by everyone? Don't you know it?"

Duke Liang curled his lips and said speechlessly, "It's you who don't treat everyone as brothers, don't treat His Majesty and the Queen as your own family, and don't truly treat these people as human beings. If you don't treat others with care, then how can others treat you with care?!"

"Benefits can only be exchanged for interests, sincerity can only be exchanged for sincerity!"

"You don't want sincerity, and you don't want profit, so this is the only outcome you get!"

"You have brought this upon yourself, don't blame anyone else."

Duke Liang looked at Pei Huizhou coldly, feeling disappointed. "Think about it carefully. You entered the Forbidden City at the age of 20 and took charge of the Dali Temple. How many young nobles in this world are more capable than you?"

"Isn't it all the merits of generations accumulated and transferred to one descendant? How could your ancestors have any merits accumulated over generations?"

"Everything is already the best arrangement, but you are not willing to accept your fate and are not satisfied..."

If you are not content, you will end up like Pei Huizhou.

If people are content, they will be like Bailu.

"Believe it or not? If these powers are given to Bai Lu, even if he is given the title of Crown Prince or Princess, Bai Lu wouldn't care!"

Duke Liang looked at him with complicated eyes and slowly uttered the last words, "...that's all!"

"When you are reborn in the next life, don't be so stubborn. What's the point?"

He turned and left.

Pei Huizhou stayed where he was. He looked at the back of Duke Liang and suddenly smiled with relief.

"Really? Even if Bai Lu is crowned a princess or a prince, she wouldn't care?"

"Bai Lu is just so good, she is the best person in the world... in everyone's heart!!"

Pei Huizhou's attitude towards her was quite complicated.

He actually likes Bai Lu very much, because Bai Lu is indeed a good person. If he becomes friends with her, she will definitely be his best friend.

If I become Bai Lu's relative, she will eventually become my relative.

If he became her husband... Pei Huizhou suddenly stopped.

They had never been husband and wife, and he didn't know what it would be like to be husband and wife with Bai Lu.

But, it should taste good.

She loves her children so much and is so good to them.

If we are not destined to be together in this life, then we can be husband and wife in the next life.

But the afterlife is too far away, he never asks for it, he only hopes for this life!

Pei Huizhou called out to the yamen runner, "Hey, tell Zhang, the chief steward beside His Majesty, for me!"

Ordinary people may not understand this, but the yamen runners know it clearly.

Even though Pei Huizhou was now in dire straits, imprisoned and facing execution in ten days, Chief Steward Zhang had sent someone to inform him, "You must not treat General Pei badly. General Pei is the son of an old friend of His Majesty!"

No matter where he goes, there are people to protect him, allowing him to be a strong and spotless crane throughout his life, never lowering his proud head.

Therefore, the poison of the red crescent moon can enter people's hearts without restraint.

Hearing this, the yamen runner hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Yes."

Not long after, Manager Zhang came over.

Then Pei Huizhou said in a cold voice: "Manager Zhang, before I die, I want to see His Majesty one last time."

"Your Majesty will not refuse me, will you?"

As Bai Lu's opponent, the best way to disgust Bai Lu is to win yourself.

And... Pei Huizhou suddenly realized that some unknown feelings seemed to be rising in his heart.

Are he and Bai Lu really just rivals?

Is it really just a simple mortal enemy?

Does hatred give rise to love?

From hatred comes love...

Hongmeng gave birth to two yin and yang, hatred is the ultimate love...

What you said... is so true...

Pei Huizhou picked up a handful of straw from the ground and suddenly burst into laughter, tears coming out of his eyes.

Suddenly, an unprecedented plan came to his mind.

This plan...will definitely make Bai Lu and all the others hate me so much.

Especially Bai Lu, she must have wanted to eat him alive, devour his flesh, drink his blood, and eat his heart!

......

The queen walked into the imperial garden, and the wind was very strong behind her.

There was a huge slap mark on her face.

All the concubines, palace maids and eunuchs in the palace knew about it.

After walking around outside like this, her dignity was suddenly reduced to the lowest point.

The red-faced people nearby were stunned, gritting their teeth and saying to the Queen, "Your Majesty, His Majesty has gone too far. He actually beat you like this for Lady Bai Lu!"

"Even if you arranged a marriage between General Pei and Madam Bai Lu, so what? You are Madam Bai Lu's aunt, so why can't you arrange it?"

"And in front of so many people... Sigh!"

This really humiliated the Queen.

The queen was silent for a while, then she smiled sadly and said, "You don't understand."

"You don't understand...the status of Bai Lu and Pei Huizhou in the emperor's heart."

"Perhaps those illegitimate princes and princesses don't hold as high a position in the emperor's heart as Bai Lu and Pei Huizhou!"

"The Emperor would definitely not be happy if either of them were bullied in the slightest..."

The Queen's eyes were filled with disappointment. "I just didn't expect... I only have a few months left to live, and yet the Emperor would humiliate me like this in front of everyone!"

Alas, but after this slap...

No matter what she does, the emperor won't say anything, right?

A glint flashed in the Queen's eyes, and she suddenly said to Hongying, "Hongying, do you know why the Crown Prince hasn't married yet at this age?"

Hongying shook her head and suddenly felt a chill on her back.

Then the Queen laughed and said, "Of course the Prince thinks that no woman in the world is worthy of him."

"No one is better than his mother when giving birth to a son. As his mother, I know the prince best. He has very high standards and doesn't look down on ordinary noble ladies."

"So the one he's interested in... must be incredibly beautiful! Or extremely powerful."

"However, Bai Lu has both of these characteristics."

Hongying was stunned, and then she saw the Queen's expression suddenly change. She said viciously, "So...why would I let Bailu remain unmarried?"
