Chapter 1 The Wedge
In late autumn, the grass is dying and miserable, and the dead leaves are swirling and scattered on the ground.
There was a sudden "bang" sound in the mossy, remote abandoned courtyard, the old wooden doors were overwhelmed and fell apart, and the cold wind poured in.
A well-dressed young lady entered with her skirt in hand.
The shabby room was filled with splendor and splendor, which was in sharp contrast to the bleakness of the people in the room.
Pei Shu's dark eyes glanced at Yun Danfeng lightly, then looked away.
The pretty young lady looked down at her, her pretty red lips sneered like a winner,
"Sister, don't you even want to look at me again?"
Pei Shu remained silent.
Pei Yu gathered up his fox fur cloak, and as his thin white wrist swayed, the ruby inlaid on the bracelet glowed with dazzling light.
"That's right. When you see me, won't I remind you how ironic it is that our talented and talented lady should be defeated by a flashy vase?"
"I don't know if the world is short-sighted, or if you are not worthy of your reputation."
The pale and skinny young woman sat on a futon with her back straight and her hands, which were covered in red, swollen and ulcerated cold sores, resting safely on her knees.
The manners are meticulous.
His eyes were calm.
If she loses, she loses. She has nothing to say.
Pei Yu hated her so much that she was always indifferent to favors and humiliations.
It's obvious that everyone has betrayed their relatives and lost everything. Shouldn't they collapse and become hysterical?
Why can he be so calm and composed?
Pei Yu secretly resented it and wanted to scratch the calm face in front of him.
"You've been married for several years and can't even have a child. You really can't be a wife." She didn't know what she thought of, and a strange smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"For many years you have been working as a coward in the Pei family, working hard to revitalize the family business, but no one appreciates you. Everyone in the Duke's mansion wishes you were dead. Do you think your efforts are like a big joke?"
Words full of malice came at her like swords and claws. Pei Shu was neither angry nor sad, and even wanted to laugh.
Just think...the sister in front of me who regards her as a life and death enemy is right to scold her.
It is undeniable that her life is indeed a joke.
Her close relatives got together to deceive her, lie to her, and take advantage of her.
The carefully chosen husband disliked her, hated her, and abandoned her.
Each and every one of them tried to climb up by trampling on her bones, blood and tears.
Pei Shu couldn't help but reflect, does she seem so easy to bully?
Pei Yu twitched the corners of her mouth, waiting to see her good sister change her face.
The result was naturally great disappointment and irritation several times, but the person opposite was always as calm as a still water.
Her thin and haggard body seemed to contain some kind of great tenacity. She was calm and quiet in the face of failure and impending death.
Pei Yu felt unwilling and vowed to tear off this ice skin.
"Congratulations to my sister for your success and retirement. You can go there with peace of mind. If there is an afterlife, my sister must learn a lesson. Don't take power and influence again, and return to your duties as a woman."
Women should stay peacefully in the back house, take care of their husbands and raise their children, instead of overestimating their abilities and trying to take power.
Everything is caused by oneself, and one cannot blame others.
"Do you know what my ex-brother-in-law and my future husband said about you? He said that you are a bitch and a wolf, hahaha... You have made the people next to you hate you so much, I feel pitiful for you, sister.
You are such a failure as a human being."
After venting her blow, Pei Yu finally felt a little more relaxed. She raised her chin high in the direction of the imperial city,
"Sister, look there quickly. Within the palace walls, Aye and his friends have launched a coup today, and the Pei family is about to ascend to the supreme throne."
"Hey, it's a pity that you can't see it anymore. The glory of the Pei family has nothing to do with you anymore."
Pei Shu, who always looked calm, suddenly chuckled: "It's too early for you to get carried away."
As long as that person is there, the Pei family will not be able to do what they want.
A laugh seemed to break the string that was forcibly suppressed, and the cramping pain came overwhelmingly, and the sweetness in the throat could no longer be suppressed.
Black and red blood surged from the corners of her lips, and Pei Shu's thoughts gradually became distracted.
The front yard is vaguely noisy.
At the last moment when her mind was swallowed up by the dark night, Pei Shu heard someone shouting in panic,
"My little lady, something bad happened. The Shence Army surrounded the Duke's Mansion..."
Tsk, the family should be neat and tidy.
It's not in vain that she planned a plot with Hu Moupi.
They all thought she was broad-minded, but they were wrong, they were wrong, she was actually quite vindictive.
