Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 603

Stop staring at my harem!

Murong Yu's stern tone resounded throughout the entire Golden Palace.

This left the ministers speechless.

Some people seized the opportunity to bring up the idea of ​​going to the south of the Yangtze River.

They just changed the subject.

After the court session, Prime Minister Pei asked his son to inquire whether the Imperial Concubine had been punished.

"Father, is there even a question? If it weren't for my cousin's mercy, Fangfang would have been beheaded long ago."

“I told you before, don’t pressure your cousin like this. And don’t attack the Empress. Your cousin won’t hold anything else against you because you are his uncle.”

Despite differing political views, there is still kinship between them.

As long as the Pei family doesn't rebel, everything will be fine.

“But you’re always secretly plotting to impeach the Empress. My cousin will be angry. This time it’s a warning. If there’s a next time, he’ll take direct action against our Pei family.” Pei Shang had already advised his father.

There's no need to ask so many questions.

Pei Xiang understood the situation clearly, but he was still dissatisfied because the Empress was not his daughter, and he believed that the Emperor was ungrateful.

By deliberately bestowing the title of Empress upon a merchant, the Pei family was humiliated. Now, outsiders were saying that the Pei family's daughter was inferior to a merchant, which was utterly disgraceful to the Pei family.

"Shang'er, don't forget who your father is!" Pei Xiang said angrily.

"You take your wife home right now, you're not allowed to stay at the Yun family's house. You three siblings have completely disgraced me! You're all useless!"

"Dad, you can't take your anger out on us just because you lost to your cousin! You know what kind of person Fangfang is."

Pei Shang glanced at him, "I think you're getting old, otherwise..."

"Shut up!" Prime Minister Pei flew into a rage and slapped him across the face before he could finish speaking. "You unfilial son, you really want me to abdicate! You want to sit in this position? Don't even think about it!"

If you want him to step down, no one can force him to relinquish his position as the head of all officials.

Pei Shang's mouth was bleeding from the beating; he hadn't expected the blow to be so severe, and his ears were ringing.

"Your son knows he was wrong." He knelt down.

Prime Minister Pei snorted coldly.

"Prime Minister..." Madam Pei Qi quickly pleaded for mercy upon learning this.

But he scolded her, "It's all your fault! You've ruined our daughter and son!"

"Get out of here!"

Lady Pei was devastated and had no choice but to call her youngest son back.

Pei Xiang doted on his youngest son the most. Pei Heng came out of the study and glanced at his eldest brother kneeling in the courtyard. "Eldest brother, Father wants you to go and bring your sister-in-law back."

It means making him give in.

But Pei Shang refused.

"Do you want me to go to the palace to find my cousin? If my cousin gets involved, it will be even more troublesome."

Pei Shang's expression changed slightly. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up. "Your sister-in-law is not well yet, so it's inconvenient for her to come back."

"Husband."

Gong Shu returned.

Pei Qishi took the opportunity to go to the Yun family, crying and making a scene to see Gong Shu, and told Gong Shu about how he had been beaten and forced to kneel.

She thought it was because she lived in the Yun family's house that Pei Shang was beaten by her father.

"Xiao Shu, why are you back?"

Xiao Ling'er escorted her back, "She was worried about you."

Now that Gong Shu has returned, the Pei family will definitely not allow her to go back to the Yun family.

"If anything happens, you can send someone back to the Yun family to find us at any time. Her injuries have healed a lot, and the Gong family will return to the capital soon."

Xiao Ling'er deliberately said the last sentence for the Pei family to hear.

This was also Madam Yun's instruction.

She escorted Gong Shu back and handed her over to Pei Shang, watching as Pei Shang and Gong Shu embraced each other.

Xiao Ling'er felt both envious and disappointed, and left dejectedly.

Inside the palace, Murong Yu gave an order.

Pei Fang and Zeng Rou were each fined three years' salary.

He struck the palm of the hand thirty times with a ruler.

They also had Zhou Zhilan and Jiang Sijin supervise them.
