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

Chapter 706

"How about this: the Emperor hosts a banquet, and our Yun family, Qi family, and Han family jointly contribute money to host the students, build an academy, and then let the merchants voluntarily sponsor the education of children from poor families?"

Murong Yu's eyes lit up. "That's a great idea! A-Yue, you're so clever. This way, scholars and merchants can complement each other!"

It can also help discover more talented individuals.

"It wasn't my idea; I heard it from my master. His ideas are very unique. If you want to know more details, you can ask him," Yun Xiyue said with a smile.

Murong Yu felt that Ghost Hand did indeed have many novel ideas. "Well, then I'll go find him. You rest first."

Yun Xiyue said, "Come back and keep me company soon... You haven't been able to have a proper meal with me lately."

Upon hearing this, his eyes lit up, and he changed his mind about not looking for Ghost Hand anymore; he would look for him tomorrow. "Does A-Yue miss me?"

She would never normally act so coquettishly towards me.

“We see each other every day, and I don’t really miss him. I just want you to spend some time with your child and talk to him.”

Murong Yu looked at her belly and his heart softened. "Yes, good. From today onwards, I will dine with you."

After the meal, Pei Shang went to find him.

"not see."

Yun Xiyue asked, "Why is Pei Shang not here?"

"He wants to plead for Pei Fang." Murong Yu had no intention of forgiving her.

"Perhaps there's something else going on, but you should meet them first."

Murong Yu only met Pei Shang after she persuaded him.

"If it's to plead for Pei Fang, then don't say anything. I'm only punishing her with confinement, which is already the greatest leniency I can show."

"It is impossible to restore her to the rank of Imperial Concubine."

Pei Shang cupped his hands and said, "Cousin, please calm down!"

He did come to plead for Pei Fang.

"Actually, Fangfang was also being used."

Hearing him speak, Murong Yu's expression softened. "Then who used her?"

"They say it was Zeng Rou, but there's no evidence. Zeng Rou was just instigated by someone. Fangfang was just stupid and was used as a scapegoat."

Murong Yu forgot about Zeng Rou. Recently, she has become smarter and no longer tries to stand out. Instead, she hides in the shadows and takes advantage of others.

"Without evidence, confronting Zeng Rou will only lead to more arguments and a waste of time. If we release Pei Fang like this, everyone will have objections, and it will also have a negative impact."

Even if Zeng Rou instigated it, does that mean Pei Fang is without fault?

She also intended to harm A-Yue.

Pei Shang said, "Fangfang doesn't ask for much. She just likes you... Cousin, you can go see her when you have time, or give her a child."

Murong Yu immediately turned hostile and sneered, "Then I'll bestow a few beauties upon you. How about Zhang Chuhuan? She likes you very much and even schemed against your wife for your sake."

"If you marry her and give her a child, wouldn't everyone be happy?"

Pei Shang was so frightened that he knelt down, "Cousin... I was wrong."

"Hmph, you can't even do it yourself, and you expect me to do it? Ah Shang, aren't you too lucky?"

Because he and Gong Shu were indeed quite happy, and there was no third party involved.

Zhang Chuhuan is already married, so there's no way she could say she'd marry him.

Pei Shang knew it was selfish to say that, but Pei Fang was his own sister...

"Then what do you suggest we do? If this continues, I'm worried that Fangfang will die in the palace one day."

Murong Yu glanced at Leng Yan, "Ask him."

Cold Flame Pestle stood silently to the side, just like a pillar.

He looked uncomfortable when he was suddenly called out by name.

"Your Majesty, she is one of your concubines."

"I have deposed her and she is no longer allowed to return home. Do you find that objectionable?"

Leng Yan said, "I will not mind, but will Prime Minister Pei agree?"

Murong Yu said irritably, "Then elope with her."

Fu Gonggong and Pei Shang's eyes widened immediately.

Damn it.

I've never seen a man let another man elope with his woman!

But it doesn't matter if she's not his wife.
