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

Madam Pei nodded, then turned to Madam Pei and said, "The Pei family is in a difficult situation right now. To prevent the other branches from being affected, all the men should write a letter of release to protect their wives and daughters, so that they can make a comeback in the future!"

Madam Pei held back her tears and nodded: "My daughter-in-law obeys your command!"

When Censor Pei and his wife entered the palace, the emperor avoided them.

The two knelt outside for about two hours before being invited by Li Delu to the imperial study.

Emperor Sheng An was naturally furious. He coldly accused, "Old Pei, I have treated you well, but I never thought that your Pei family would do such a foolish thing and almost kill my old uncle!"

Old Censor Pei had never expected that there would be a barbarian spy in the mansion, and she was even the concubine of his most proud son.

He cried until tears streamed down his face. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, it was really that lowly servant who was too cunning. That's why she deceived my son and our Pei family!"

Emperor Sheng An took a deep breath and said, "No matter what, the mistake has been made. Now it seems that the war on the border was caused by her. Master Pei, do you admit your guilt?"

Old Censor Pei wanted to argue that it had nothing to do with him, but he knew very well that the news came from the Pei Mansion.

His face was pale as he spoke: "This old minister knows his crime, and I only hope that the emperor will show leniency to me!"

Emperor Sheng An's complicated gaze fell on Madam Pei, who was also lying on the ground. He sighed, "When the late emperor was still alive, he once told me that no matter what mistakes the Pei family made in the future, I would let them go. Because if it weren't for Madam Pei's efforts, he wouldn't have been able to successfully capture several cities in a row!"

After hearing his words, a glimmer of hope suddenly flashed across Old Censor Pei's face.

Madam Pei also spoke up immediately: "I am ashamed to have failed the late emperor. I have committed such a grave mistake. I am ashamed to appear before the emperor!"

Emperor Sheng An stood up and helped her up, saying, "Old Madam, please don't blame me. Now that things have come to this, I must give an explanation to the civilians caught up in the war and the soldiers who swore to defend the border to their death!"

Madam Pei nodded: "I will leave it to the emperor to deal with!"

Emperor Sheng An pondered for a moment before saying, "Pei Jue, the young master of the Pei family, is extremely talented. I value him very much, so I will keep him in the capital. As for the other sons and nephews of the Pei family, they will all be exiled to the far north to serve as a warning to others!"

What else could Madam Pei say? It was already a special favor for the emperor to keep Pei Jue.

She smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty is wise. My Pei family will always remember your grace!"

Old Censor Pei was actually not satisfied. He wanted to keep a few more members of the Pei family in the capital to support Pei Jue.

However, seeing the warning look from his wife, he didn't dare to say anything.

Emperor Sheng An said calmly, "I'll give you three days. Once you've packed up, leave quickly to avoid the snow and difficult journey!"

Old Madam Pei felt sad. She thought the emperor would at least let them wait until the New Year before leaving.

After all, she was just wishful thinking!

The couple bowed in thanks and said goodbye, and Emperor Sheng'an asked Li Delu to see them off.

He immediately got up and went to the prison, where he saw a coroner performing an autopsy on the deceased Pei Qitong.

At this time, Prince Li and Zhan Yan were both there, and both of them looked very solemn.

Emperor Sheng An asked in a serious tone, "Have you found anything?"

Prince Li said, "I found a butterfly birthmark on the back of her shoulder. I wonder if it's a way for barbarian spies to be identified!"

Emperor Sheng An frowned after hearing this. He muttered subconsciously, "We can't have the Imperial Guards strip people's clothes off the streets for inspection, right? That would cause public outrage!"

Zhan Yan naturally understood this logic and was immediately in trouble.

Prince Li spoke without hesitation, "Let's start with the nobles. The Emperor should order a few teaching maids to go out of the palace to teach them the rules and regulations, and have all the ladies in the backyard undergo physical examinations. Wouldn't that eliminate all those who are whispering in your ear?"

Emperor Sheng An's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but praise him, "Uncle, you are indeed a seasoned expert. Your idea is excellent. I will immediately order the teaching nanny to leave the palace!"

Prince Li ignored him, turned around and walked out quickly.

Emperor Sheng An anxiously asked, "Uncle, where are you going?"

Prince Li glanced at him and said, "No matter how big the matter is, it cannot delay me from getting married. I must go back and prepare for the marriage!"

Emperor Sheng An was stunned. No, it wasn't even dark yet. Shouldn't he be getting married the next morning? Why was he going back so early?

Seeing Prince Li disappear, Emperor Sheng An finally looked at Zhan Yan and said, "Look how anxious your father-in-law is. Did he even run away with his wife?"

Zhan Yanyouyou said: "Your Majesty, we can't let a full man not know the hunger of a hungry man. My father-in-law, your uncle, has been looking forward to this for most of his life. Now that he can finally embrace the beauty, can't he wait even a moment longer?"

Emperor Sheng An couldn't help but sigh, "Yes, it's really not easy for my uncle. Who would have thought that after all the twists and turns, he would have a happy ending, with a wife and a daughter, and even got you, the Marquis of Zhan Yi, as his son-in-law. I'm so envious!"

Zhan Yan said, "Isn't the Emperor going to be a father too? And twins!"

When this was mentioned, Emperor Sheng An showed joy on his face.

He said quickly, "Zhan Yan, you know how much the Queen has been eating lately. Her belly is so big that I can hardly hold it in my arms. It's only been seven months, but she's already full-term and about to give birth!"

Zhan Yan couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't help but imagine what Lin Yiwan looked like when she was pregnant.

Her belly wasn't very noticeable yet, but the rest of her body had already shocked him.

Just as his mind wandered, Li Delu's panicked voice suddenly rang out from outside: "Your Majesty, Marquis Zhan Yi, there's news from the Queen's palace that she suddenly fell to the ground and has seen blood!"

Emperor Sheng An's body shook for a while. Without hesitation, he turned around and ran outside.

Zhan Yan's expression was also solemn. The Queen must not be in any danger, otherwise, the consequences would be severe!

As he walked out, he instructed Li Delu, "Hurry out and get Wanwan over here. She's the only one who can save the queen!"

At this time, Lin Yiwan, who was helping Lin Su pack her dowry at Zhan Yihou's mansion, also saw an uninvited guest, who was Chan'er, Sang Qiutang's personal maid.

She said anxiously, "Madam Hou, didn't our young lady go to the farm with the old lady to recuperate a while ago? She accidentally broke her leg and now has a high fever. The accompanying doctor is unable to reduce the fever. That's why the young lady sent me to the capital to ask you to save her!"

Lin Yiwan knew that Sang Qiutang had gone to the farm to accompany the old lady for recuperation, and that the two of them were also communicating with each other, so he would definitely rush back the day before Lin Su's wedding.

I think something happened when she was about to set off for Beijing, so she naturally couldn't just stand by and watch.

She immediately went to say goodbye to Lin Su and ordered Ling'er to send a message to Zhan Yan in the palace.

As for Zi'er, she carried the medicine box and walked out quickly with her!
