Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

Lin Yiwan shook her head. "No, I just stumbled accidentally. It's a pity that those pots of golden peonies were smashed to pieces, right?"

Prince Li soothed him gently, "They are just a few pots of flowers. How can they be compared to your body?"

Just as he was about to explain to the old Censor Pei, he saw the woman who had been standing still immediately pounce towards the flowers. She quickly gathered the soil, her face full of fear and anxiety.

He immediately began to wonder, isn't the golden peony more important? Why did she start preparing the flower soil first?

Is there something fishy going on?

Without hesitation, he rushed over and shouted, "Wait!"

The woman's hands trembled and her whole body shuddered with shock.

Li Wang looked carefully and found that there was a thumb-sized black substance mixed in the flower soil.

He casually picked up a shovel and dug it out, and immediately recognized it as a black bird commonly seen in Cangliang Mountain.

He glared at the woman with a sharp gaze: "Tell me, what are you going to do with this black bird's corpse?"

A cold light flashed in the woman's eyes. Without hesitation, she raised her hand, took out a sharp dagger, and stabbed it directly into King Li's heart.

Prince Li reacted extremely quickly. When the cold light suddenly appeared in the woman's hand, he had already retreated quickly.

"Bang!" He kicked the woman's wrist and broke it with a snap.

The woman screamed and fell to the ground, and immediately more than a dozen sharp swords were pressed against her neck.

She raised the corners of her lips in mockery and bit off the poison hidden between her teeth without hesitation.

All this happened so quickly that no one in the Pei family could react.

It was not until the woman bit herself to death that Old Imperial Censor Pei roared in anger, "You bitch, how dare you harm our Pei family? Who on earth ordered you to do that?"

Lin Yiwan did not dare to delay. She quickly took the silver needle and pierced the woman's heart acupoint.

She sneered, "You can't cure this kind of deadly poison. Don't even think about getting any clues from me. I won't tell you!"

Lin Yiwan said calmly, "You don't need me to tell you, I've already guessed it. You're a barbarian spy. You're planning to kill my father so you can shake the morale of the army and cause the Sheng Dynasty to lose the battle!"

The woman's eyes widened in shock. She never expected that Lin Yiwan actually knew about this. No wonder Ke'er fell into her hands. This woman was indeed very scary.

Old Imperial Censor Pei's face was filled with fear and uneasiness. He quickly questioned the woman, "Are you talking nonsense? You're not a spy at all. It's just the Marquis's random guess, right?"

The woman sneered suddenly, black blood kept flowing out of her mouth, and her breath became weaker.

She said in a hoarse voice, "Old thief Pei, you're scared now, aren't you? You're worried that I'll implicate you and affect your son's future. If you had known this would happen, you wouldn't have done it in the first place. If you had been nicer to my son, how could I have been so careless?"

"Yes, I am the spy trained by the Manyi since childhood. Do you know why King Li was ambushed by Jinghu Lake? It was me who sent the intelligence to the Manyi. It was all my doing. Your Pei family is finished!"

Old Censor Pei gritted his teeth and wanted to rush forward to beat the woman, but Li Youde held his hands and feet tightly.

He shouted frantically: "I will kill this vicious woman, I will kill her, she has destroyed our Pei family!"

Li Youde solemnly warned: "Mr. Pei, you can't be impulsive. Princess Li still has something to ask her. If you let her die so quickly, then you'll be fulfilling her wish!"

The eyes of the old Imperial Censor Pei were filled with despair. He never expected that the Pei family, which was supposed to be at its peak of prosperity, would be ruined by an insignificant concubine.

He really regretted it. When his eldest son brought her into the mansion, he should have stopped him!

He raised his hand and slapped Pei Qi hard: "It's all your fault, you idiot, for being so blind!"

Pei Qi also had a stunned look on his face. How could he have slept with a barbarian spy for so many years?

Should he relent and repay her for not killing him?

While he was lost in thought, Prince Li coldly demanded, "How did you get the information out of the capital? Where is your base?"

The woman's eyes were already unfocused. A slight scornful smile curled the corners of her lips as she spoke, "We barbarians are hiding all over the capital. Even if I die, there are still many others. We can't catch them all. It's simply impossible to catch them all. Sooner or later, Sheng Dynasty will be annexed by us barbarians, and sooner or later, you will become prisoners!"

"Puff!" She opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of black blood, and then she died.

Prince Li's eyes glared fiercely as he shouted, "Come here, thoroughly investigate every woman she had close contact with, as well as the places she frequented. We must uncover all the barbarian spies to prevent them from causing chaos in the capital!"

A secret guard took the order and left, while Old Imperial Censor Pei was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and wailed, "Your Highness, please calm down. We in the Pei Mansion were wrongly accused. If we had known her identity earlier, we would have beaten her to death. How could we let her pass on information and try to murder you again?"

Prince Li taunted, "Master Pei, do you know how the barbarians lured me to Mirror Lake? They actually used a woman who looked like Lin Su as bait. Such secret information is only known to the Emperor and a few people in the palace. How did she, a concubine, learn of it?"

Old Censor Pei was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He subconsciously looked at Master Pei who was also kneeling on the ground.

He gritted his teeth and asked, "Pei Qi, has this bitch ever asked you about Prince Li's preferences?"

Pei Qi replied tremblingly, "I did ask around. My son didn't know she was a barbarian spy at the time, so he told her the rumors. Who would have thought she would actually send her out, and even caused Prince Li to be ambushed!"

When Old Censor Pei heard this, he immediately knew that the Pei family was finished.

He had no choice but to fall to the ground and beg, "Your Majesty, we are also victims who have been kept in the dark. Please spare the lives of our entire family!"

Prince Li said, "Tomorrow is my great day, and there will be no bloodshed. However, I have no say in how to deal with you. It depends on the Emperor's wishes. I will take this woman's body away. You, the Pei family, can take care of yourself!"

After saying that, he quickly left with Lin Yiwan.

Meng Xiang had already found out the truth, so naturally he would not linger.

When he passed by Censor Pei, he said helplessly, "Old Censor Pei, I really want to recommend Pei Qi to be the Right Prime Minister of the current dynasty. However, I'm afraid he can't even be the official historian of the Supervisory Council now!"

He turned away, not caring at all how ugly the expressions of the old Imperial Censor Pei and his wife were.

After everyone had left the Pei Mansion, Madam Pei said in a trembling voice, "Master, I have no choice but to go to the palace and beg the Emperor. I hope he still remembers our old friendship and spares the lives of our family, especially Jue'er. He's an innocent child, and his future cannot be ruined because of his father's foolish actions!"

Old Imperial Censor Pei also forced himself to cheer up and said, "Okay, I'll go with you. No matter life or death, I'll be by your side!"
