"Does King Hao already know? The slave's parents, before the slave..." At this point, she stopped deliberately and carefully observed Pei Qianhao's eyes. When she noticed that his expression was darker, she understood that what He Xiangyu said was true in all likelihood.

Unexpectedly, the fate of the real Su Xier was extremely rough.

"Pei Yong will cut it at noon tomorrow, let the past matter pass, and don't mention it again." Pei Qianhao said as he raised his hand to straighten her hair and shaved it behind her ears.

Before entering the palace, the owner of this body was really caught by a big family... and that person's surname was Pei, who was the father of the woman who broke into Yeting just now! It's just that Su Xi'er who was there was a child. How could he be frivolous if he didn't come to Kuishui

Su Xi'er thought more and more deeply, since she was in this body, then the original master's affairs had naturally become hers.

Pei Qianhao saw her thinking deeply and thought that her sad past was mentioned, but he never comforted anyone, let alone a woman. When I said it, I wanted to be comforted, but it turned into another meaning, "You didn't enter the palace, you were just touched with a small face, and no major incident happened. When will this hurdle in your heart pass?"

Only then did Su Xi'er know that she hadn't been frivolous, and was touched by someone else's face. The so-called filth in He Xiangyu's mouth is nothing but speculation.

Pei Qianhao realized that what he said did not seem to be comforting. He simply tightened his arms and hugged her tighter. A low voice sounded from the top of her head, "The previous things do not need to be mentioned. No one cares, unless you I can't forget it myself."

After speaking, he let go of her, raised his chin, and looked at her carefully.

For a long time, he let go of her again, did not kiss her, and did nothing else, "The injury on your hand, pay attention. From now on, there is no need to wash the chamber pot anymore, it has been arranged for someone else to do it." The words fell, Pei Qianhao walked towards At the door of the room, the figure quickly disappeared from Su Xi'er's sight.

Seeing the door of the room closed again, Su Xier thought deeply. Pei Qianhao's temperament does not talk much, but does a lot. No matter what he deals with, he will do it according to this principle.

Su Xi'er looked at the scar on her arm, it was already scarred, and when the scar fell off, just smear it with stamen pollen. Feng Changqing and Yu Xiao who followed Beimin should be at Pei Qianhao's at this moment, perhaps at Hao Wang's Mansion. As for the arrangement, Su Xier didn't know. It's hard to say Yu Xiao, but Feng Changqing will definitely enter the palace secretly and tell her the news.

Half an hour later, Su Xi'er was about to take off her clothes and fall asleep. As soon as Pei Qianhao left, no one should disturb her tonight.

However, as soon as she thought about it, there was a loud noise from the courtyard.

"Come here, grab Su Xi'er!" The voice was loud and sharp, and it was Pei Yaran's voice.

Not long after, the two guards kicked open the door of Su Xi'er's house, broke in, and tried to take her away.

Su Xi'er didn't know how many times she had gone through this scene, and she was already able to deal with it easily. Her figure flashed very quickly, avoiding the thick arms of the guards, and after a calm glance at them, she walked straight to the courtyard.

After bowing to Pei Yaran, Su Xi'er looked at the surrounding guards and asked politely, "Queen dowager, what crime did the slave and maid commit?"

"Grab it, wait for interrogation, you naturally understand." Pei Yaran learned the lessons of several failures, and instead of talking nonsense with Su Xi'er, grab her first to avoid complications.

Several guards obeyed the orders and immediately walked towards Su Xi'er. Su Xi'er avoided the guard's siege one after another, but her arm was injured and she had not recovered yet and could not make a large move.

At this time, Mother Liu heard the movement and rushed to her immediately. When she saw the queen mother, she immediately saluted respectfully, "Old slave sees the queen mother."

Immediately, Mother Liu looked at Su Xi'er questioningly, and asked the Queen Mother, "She is a court lady in the court. I don't know what crime she committed to anger the Queen Mother?"

Pei Yaran knew that Grandma Liu was the grandmother in the palace, and even knew she was the emperor's nanny, but did not put her in the slightest, "Grandma Liu, you don't need to care about this matter. You take it away."

Having said that, Liu Mo was silent, watching Su Xi'er about to be taken away.

Su Xi'er knows that if you go head-to-head, you won't be profitable. Because she is a handmaid, Pei Yaran is the current queen mother. You can only pretend to lower your head first, and then think of a solution.

So Su Xi'er said, "The servant girl will go with the Queen Mother."

Pei Yaran didn't expect Su Xi'er to be so obedient, but she wouldn't let her guard down either. Several times before, Su Xi'er escaped because of carelessness.

"Take it away." Pei Yaran gave an order, and several guards stepped forward, preparing to take Su Xi'er away.

"The servants go by themselves, don't bother with the guards." Su Xier said casually, and then walked forward.

Pei Yaran didn't say a word, looked at Mother Liu seriously, and then walked out of Ye Ting.

Before Su Xier left, she turned her head pretendingly and silently said three words to Mother Liu.

After seeing her mouth, Mother Liu understood in an instant, Su Xier said about Father Zhang! Zhang Gonggong is the head of the House of Internal Affairs. If the masters of the palace punish their servant girls, they do not need to use the House of Internal Affairs. However, if the maids of other palaces are severely punished, and there is no evidence, the Ministry of Internal Affairs must act in person, and after interrogation, the crime can be determined.

This rule was set by the founding empress of Beimin, in order to stabilize the harem and avoid unjust, false and wrong cases.

Mother Liu waited for the queen mother and others to leave, and then hurried to the House of Internal Affairs to discuss with Zhang Gonggong.

When Father Zhang knew, Su Xier had already walked to a remote hut in the backyard of Ci Ning Palace.

The icy moonlight came in, and there were torture instruments everywhere, slid past, with everything you need, comparable to a prison.

Pei Yaran told the guards, "You all go out, leave two people in front of the house, no matter what sound you hear, you are not allowed to enter the house! Then tell Mother Zhao to come over."

Su Xier heard the three words for Mother Zhao, and it seemed that this mother was the old mother beside Pei Yaran, who had the same surname as the deceased owner of the court, and both had the surname Zhao.

The guard bowed to take his orders, and not long after, the door was closed.

The hut has no windows, the door is closed to cut off the moonlight, and it is completely dark inside.

Pei Yaran lit the candle, and suddenly the room was full of candles, standing on the torture instrument, adding a bit of horror.

"Su Xi'er, are you scared?" Pei Yaran's voice was very soft, and then he walked to the torture instrument.

"The queen mother brought the slave and maid here, wanting to punish the slave and maid directly? What crime did the slave and maid commit?" Su Xier was calm and composed.

Pei Yaran looked sideways, only a girl of fifteen. For the first time, he saw Manchu Sen's cold torture instrument. There was no fear, not even a hint of panic.

"You committed a great crime, and you asked Laijia! The Nanzhao state banquet is a matter between the two countries. You seduce King Hao, he took you to Nanzhao, took a woman with you, and was ridiculed by the people of the world! You have Face back to Bei Min!" Pei Yaran suppressed her anger, her voice low.
