Xie Xian went back to the official office to handle official duties. Pei Shu picked a few grid puzzle questions for the young prince to do, and it was noon in a flash.

The palace maid brought eight flavors and one soup according to the queen's order.

After finishing lunch outside the side hall of Tianlu Pavilion, Pei Shu went inside to take a break.

In the afternoon, I gave the prince a short chess lesson, then packed up and prepared to leave the palace.

"My lady, please stay." After leaving the East Palace, as soon as she entered the intersection, a young chamberlain called to her.

The servant quickly caught up and announced his family name: "This slave is Cao Guang, the apprentice of Eunuch Fan. He is currently serving as an errand outside the Zichen Palace. The master has to serve in front of the emperor at all times and is not allowed to walk around at will. The old man asked the slave to send you a message.

talk."

Pei Shu raised her eyebrows slightly.

Cao Guang looked around, stretched his neck and came closer, lowering his voice and said: "Pei Sanniang is on the marriage list. If you have any ideas, you should make plans early."

Is there such a good thing? I was really dozing off. Someone handed me a pillow. I was worried about missing a piece of mountain land. This opportunity came. Pei Shu suppressed the raised corners of her mouth, took out a purse and stuffed it.

"Thank you so much, father-in-law, I will personally thank your master some other time."

In the eighth year of Zhenyuan, the emperor completely ended the war and gradually implemented the national policy of emphasizing civility and restraining military force. However, while Daqi was resting and recuperating, the neighboring vassal countries also grew sharp fangs in the stable environment.

Today, the shortcomings of over-emphasis on civil service and neglect of military affairs have gradually surfaced. The emperor often adopts strategies to appease and win over powerful neighbors, so that our country will not be attacked on several sides.

But hyenas are always hyenas, and sacrificing women to forge a good relationship between Qin and Jin is ultimately treating the symptoms rather than the root cause.

The reason why Pei Shu was not worried about the innocent woman on the list, but still had the mind to plot the Qin family's private property, was because the matter was finally settled under Xie Xian's control.

Creating a thankless dog that kills so many evils can be considered a meritorious deed.

Back at Zhilanju, Pei Shu had just eaten a few iced bayberries when Mrs. Qin hurried over.

She was so anxious that she rushed in three steps at a time.

Maybe he walked too fast, his cheeks were red and sweat was pouring down, and the sweat mixed with the messy black hair on his temples, making him look embarrassed and miserable.

"Why is mother so anxious?" Pei Shu asked knowingly, "But what happened at home?"

She picked up a bright red plum with her slender white fingers and slowly brought it to her lips.

Her demeanor was elegant and noble, and her cold eyes looked at her with a natural arrogance. Qin had never hated her for being so condescending.

Mrs. Qin glared at her eldest daughter with red eyes: "Why pretend to be confused? You just came out of the palace and you didn't hear anything?"

"Oh, it's about the marriage," Pei Shu said with a puzzled expression: "Being able to go for the marriage as a princess is a good thing to serve the country and leave a name in history. Shouldn't mother feel happy?"

"Why don't you go for such a good thing!" The eldest daughter was unfaithful, and the Qin family was so angry that she covered her face and cried loudly: "How can Sister Yu stand up to the hardships in such a barbaric land because she is so weak and delicate?

"

"Quickly think of a way to save her, I'm begging you!" Mrs. Qin realized that she was too tough and immediately softened her attitude.

Because she had already dug through the entire imperial capital network, and sadly discovered that only her unfilial eldest daughter could turn things around.

Pei Shu spread her hands indifferently: "The friendship between our two countries is serious, how can I save it?"

Mrs. Qin cried heartbrokenly: "Go to the palace immediately and ask for a favor from His Majesty."

The howling was so loud that it could be heard from two doors away.

"Mom, can you please stop crying? I have a headache." Pei Shu raised her eyebrows lightly and said, "If favors were so easy to please, there wouldn't be so many families who have confiscated and exterminated their families throughout the ages."

Mrs. Qin reluctantly stopped talking, lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes: "You are different."

Pei Shu was slightly surprised: "What's the difference? The king is the king, and the minister is the minister."

Mrs. Qin vomited to death and could not say anything: "Your master has an extraordinary relationship with His Majesty. You are her only disciple, so this favor will naturally benefit you."

Pei Shu sighed: "That's what I say, but the favor becomes thinner every time you use it. From the perspective of the head of the family, this kind of kindness that no amount of money can buy should be used on the edge of the knife and wasted on trivial matters.

Throwing it away would be a suspicion of favoritism."

Isn't it just a dead daughter? It's not like she has never died before. What a big deal.

In her previous life, she was poisoned by strange poisons, and half of the poison deposited in her body came from Qin's hands.

At that time, every time I called her to Xiyuan, I would watch her finish the tea and food mixed with a slight amount of poison in one mouthful, without changing her expression.

Why are you panicking now?

Oh, by the way, she and Pei Yu are different.

His patience with his eldest daughter, Mrs. Qin, has always been limited, and she couldn't be gentle for a long time before she returned to her old ways, lowered her face and said sternly,

"Several of the princesses who have gone to marry each other in the past dynasties have ended up miserable. At the same age as Hua Guduo, they have to marry a poor old man. There is also the barbarian stepmarriage system. How can Sister Yu endure such humiliation?"

"You actually dismissed such a serious and life-threatening matter as a trivial matter. I can't find anyone colder than you in the world."

"I don't care. If you don't agree, I will hang myself with a white silk silk at the door of Zhilanju. If you force your biological mother to death, no one will be able to live well." Mrs. Qin looked like she was willing to die together and risk her life.

Pei Shu rubbed her eyebrows in deep thought. After thinking for a long time, she finally came to a compromise and said, "Okay, okay, I'll think of a way, okay."

In case the night was long and there were many dreams, Mrs. Qin urged: "You should enter the palace now."

"At this time, when I arrive, the palace door will be locked." Pei Shu looked at the sky outside, tapped the black wooden case with her thin white fingertips, and said, "Mother, you generally understand your daughter.

As for me... I won’t let go of the hawk until I see the rabbit.”

"I have lived for most of my life, and I have never heard of an unfilial son like you. It really opened my eyes!" Mrs. Qin laughed angrily and stared at her gloomily: "Tell me, this time you want to take advantage of me.

Where did you tear off a piece of flesh from your body?"

"What mother said is so unpleasant, isn't it?" What's so strange about this, Pei Shu thought to herself. She had only heard of tigers poisoning their own children, but rarely heard of parents poisoning their own daughters.

People are too toxic to be close to each other, and everyone loves each other.

"Don't talk nonsense. If you have any conditions, ask for it immediately." Mrs. Qin roared angrily, not wanting to look at her philistine and vicious face again.

Pei Shu spoke slowly: "A hot spring village in the suburbs of Beijing, plus a piece of mountainous land in Yiji County."

When Mrs. Qin heard this, she was furious: "A lion can't be more open-minded than this. You should really take a look in the mirror and see how ugly your greedy face is."

There are countless hot spring resorts in the suburbs of Beijing, but there are only a few of them in total. Not to mention that they are expensive but not marketable, even nobles who are not high enough can only look forward to them and sigh.

The eldest daughter opened her mouth to ask for the hot spring village. Instead of biting off a piece of meat, she cut off one of her legs.

Pei Shu brought along a hot spring resort to confuse the public, leaving room for bargaining.

After several negotiations, the mountainous land in the neighboring county of Dijing was settled safely.

After this incident, Mrs. Qin was completely disgusted with her eldest daughter, and there was no possibility for her to have any warmth anymore.
