Reborn, meet you again!
Chapter 175 Self-Preservation
But before Shen Jiahe could rebuke Pei Qingyan for his hypocrisy, Jun Jiuchen's voice rang out again.
"It seems that Princess Jianing won't be able to get this letter of divorce."
"In this case, I, the king, will have no choice but to act impartially..."
Jun Jiuchen raised his hand as he spoke.
The four black-armored guards stepped forward without any hesitation and arrested Pei Qingyan and Shen Jiahe.
Seeing this, Shen Jiahe became more and more anxious.
If Jun Jiuchen really wanted to vent Jiang Wanqiao's anger, then compared to Pei Qingyan, Jiang Wanqiao might hate someone more...
It was she who snatched Pei Qingyan away and caused her to be kicked out of the house!
Jun Jiuchen has always been lawless. If she enters the Five Elements Bureau, will she be able to come out alive?
She must not be captured at this time, or all her efforts and arrangements will be wasted!
Thinking of this, Shen Jiahe no longer cared about anything else and said sternly.
"Don't come over here! I want to see the Queen Mother!"
"My marriage to Pei Qingyan was personally arranged by the Queen Mother. If she knew that I was implicated by the Marquis' Mansion, she would definitely not sit idly by and would issue an order to allow us to divorce!"
"Don't even think about executing first and asking for permission later!"
Seeing Shen Jiahe like this, Su Ziyao, who was shocked by this sudden change, seemed to have thought of something and stood up again.
"My cousin is right!"
"I will go to the palace and ask the Queen Mother to allow them to divorce. You can't touch her!"
He was already addicted to Yao Peng, and his cousin hadn't yet introduced the Mobei merchant to him. If his cousin was captured like this...
Then when he finishes taking all the rest in his hand, won’t he have to suffer the pain of thousands of ants gnawing at his heart?
He must not let this happen!
Jun Jiuchen didn't expect that Su Ziyao would actually speak for Shen Jiahe.
As far as he knew, this man was not such a sentimental and righteous person.
Could it be...
A sharp look suddenly flashed across Jun Jiuchen's eyes.
It seems that Shen Jiahe...had made plans for himself early on.
However, since he has decided to capture Shen Jiahe, he will naturally not be timid because of the Su family.
He seemed to have thought of something, and a thought flashed through his mind. He did not continue to order people to capture Shen Jiahe, but simply ignored Su Ziyao and looked at Shen Jiahe thoughtfully.
"Princess Jianing, there's no need to waste your time. The Marquis's family has committed a grave crime that has affected three clans. Even if the Queen Mother truly agrees to your divorce, what will happen?"
"The one you are carrying in your belly now is the flesh and blood of the Ningyuan Marquisate, the descendant of a guilty minister..."
"According to the law, even if you and Minister Pei divorce, I must have you taken care of until you give birth to the child!"
He remembered Song Wan telling him that the baby in Shen Jiahe's belly... seemed to have some problems.
If this child is really not Pei Qingyan's, then he may be related to Mobei.
If he could take the opportunity to clarify this matter, it might be of use to his future plan to take over the Hetao area.
Just as Jun Jiuchen expected, as soon as he said this, Shen Jiahe had an idea and spoke without any hesitation.
"The Regent is wrong. The child in my belly... is not Pei Qingyan's, and has nothing to do with the Ningyuan Marquisate! It is certainly not the son of a traitor as you claim."
"So, as long as my cousin obtains the consent for a divorce, you can't touch me!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a sound of gasps from all around.
Princess Jianing’s child is not Pei Qingyan’s?
But didn't they have an affair in Mobei and that's how they got pregnant?
This matter was a hot topic a while ago, so how come the child is not Pei Qingyan's now?
Today's excitement is really one thing after another.
It's breathtaking.
When Pei Qingyan suddenly heard that Shen Jiahe had revealed the secret of her unborn child in public, her face turned pale.
He only felt that the gazes from everyone around him were looking to pierce him to pieces.
Things like this...
It is a great shame and humiliation for a man!
Even if Jiahe wanted to protect himself, he couldn't trample on his dignity like this. If so, even if the empress dowager really came forward to protect the marquis's mansion, how would he face people in the future?
Moreover, in her heart...
Is he really there?
Pei Qingyan didn't even dare to think about it any further.
Jun Jiuchen also glanced at Pei Qingyan's expression at this time, and then continued.
"Princess Jianing, please don't lie. Your affair with Minister Pei is known to everyone in the capital."
"Now you say this child isn't Pei Shilang's. Who knows if you're just making up a lie to protect yourself..."
Since Shen Jiahe had started, he never thought of backing down.
She was going to leave Tianqi anyway. As long as she could survive until the prince came to the capital, she would never see the people here again.
In that case, why should she care about her face at this moment?
Thinking of this, she looked at Jun Jiuchen with great determination.
"If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, you can ask a doctor to take my pulse. This child is much older than when I met Pei Qingyan on the battlefield!"
"That's enough to prove what I said is true!"
As Shen Jiahe spoke, he suddenly seemed to remember something and turned his gaze to Song Wan.
"Jiang Wanqiao, aren't you a doctor? Come over here and take my pulse. You'll know immediately!"
"Besides... Pei Qingyan and I have never actually been husband and wife. The one who had an affair with him was my girl Yinxin!"
"I have never snatched your man away. He looked down on you as a merchant's daughter and unilaterally thought that we were childhood sweethearts, so he kept pestering me!"
"Even if I weren't here, when he returns with military merit... he'll still divorce you and marry someone else! If you want to hate someone, hate him. Why involve me?"
As Shen Jiahe spoke, a trace of sadness appeared on his face again, and the look he gave Song Wan was somewhat pitiful.
"As women, you and I should know that it's especially difficult for married women. I had no other choice but to rely on him and flee Mobei."
"I'm willing to apologize for what I've done. Please consider that I'm pregnant and don't kill me!"
Since Jun Jiuchen was standing up for the merchant's daughter today, why didn't she endure the temporary humiliation and show weakness to the merchant's daughter in order to survive?
As long as she passes this test, she will become the prince's concubine of Mobei.
In her belly...
And the prince’s child!
Ahead... there is a bright future waiting for her!
if only……
She passed this level!
