Chapter 25 This woman is completely crazy
  The strength of her hand did not decrease, and a line of blood soon appeared from her fair neck under the strong force.

The blood stained the cold white dagger and stung Pei Zhaoxue's eyes.

His heart slowed down a few beats when he saw that red blush, as if he had seen the scene when his mother committed suicide in front of him. His whole body felt like he was in an ice cave, and his brain was buzzing.

The sudden scene shocked everyone.

The emperor loved Pei Zhaoxue, an obedient and helpful minister, so it was naturally impossible for his wife to have such a thing happen to him in the palace.

Seeing this, he hurriedly ordered Wang Defu, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, to call Marquis Yongyi to come over and speak out to calm Shen Yuan's mood. He only did this as she was a beloved sister.

Fang Xuelin was dumbfounded. She completely regretted it when she saw Shen Yuan's crazy attitude that threatened to destroy her.

This woman is completely crazy, she shouldn't have acted so rashly, she should have waited.

She looked at the last life-saving straw beside her, but the straw also abandoned her at this time, and vigorously pulled back the clothes she was tugging at.

"Yuan'er!"

Pei Zhaoxue's voice was cold and stern, and her eyes were full of tension and anger: "Put down the dagger and say what you have to say. You can do whatever you want!"

"Anything is okay? Then can you just say what I just proposed?"

"But." Pei Zhaoxue remembered what his biological father had told him before his death, and continued to tell Shen Yuan in a mute voice that he had promised his father to find a good home for Fang Xuelin.

And Shi Zhengbo obviously did not meet the standards in his mind.

Shen Yuan didn't know there was such a reason, and after being stunned for a moment, she didn't let go.

"A good home? The Yongyi Marquis Mansion has the Marquis in charge, and the food and clothing expenses will be good for Xuelin to marry. And you have the support of a cousin like the Prime Minister. If she is wronged, will you ignore her?"

Pei Zhaoxue shook his head: "Of course not."

"Isn't that it? In that case, this is the best destination I can find for Xuelin as my cousin-in-law."

After Shen Yuan finished speaking, she looked at the emperor again and knelt on the ground in a polite manner: "Your Majesty, I beg you to come forward and arrange this marriage between my family Xuelin and Shizizi of the Yongyi Hou Mansion!"

Marquis Yongyi was having a drink in a nearby palace, when he was brought over by Wang Dehai.

Seeing Shen Yuan holding a dagger against her neck and saying this to the emperor, she felt happy after being surprised, but she didn't dare to show it on her face.

He first found his useless son and kicked him hard. Then he knelt down and confessed to the emperor: "I am a lowly official who failed to discipline my son. He caused such a big incident. He deserves to die."

The emperor could sit in a high position, and his ability to analyze the current situation was not bad. He could see that Pei Zhaoxue was already on the verge of hesitation, so he only needed one more assist.

He glanced at the girl who was still holding the dagger against her neck with an unusually stubborn expression, and sighed deeply.

"You do deserve to be punished, but the Yongyi Marquis Mansion also has to make compensation for the future destination of this young lady in the Pei Mansion. How can you get her married in the future if your son did such dirty things with this young lady's private clothes? ? I understand that Mrs. Pei means that she hopes to be engaged to your Yongyi Hou Mansion, what do you think?"

Needless to say, Fang Xuelin's appearance is pretty good, but her identity is much different.

Although she is Pei Zhaoxue's distant cousin, there is no reliable mother's family behind her. Marrying the eldest son of Yongyi Hou Mansion is really a high achievement for her.

But the current situation was special. Marquis Yongyi was unwilling but had no choice but to accept it. He said that everything was left to the emperor, and he thought that it was okay. Fortunately, this Fang Xuelin was loved by Pei Zhaoxue and his wife.

He thought he would be able to win over Pei Zhaoxue after marrying into their Yongyi Hou Mansion.

The emperor was very satisfied, and the queen took a deep look at the girl who put down the dagger with an expressionless face. When she walked to her side and handed her the veil, she reminded her: "Sometimes you don't have to hurt yourself when dealing with enemies. You can live by yourself. That’s what’s more important than anything else.”

After she finished speaking, she patted Shen Yuan's shoulder. She remembered some painful past, and her eyes were a little out of focus.

Shen Yuan took the handkerchief and covered the wound, saying thanks in a mute voice. Seeing that the dust had settled, the emperor said in relief: "Okay, that's the case, Pei Zaifu will take over the order!"

Pei Zhaoxue finally came back to her senses and saw that Shen Yuan had put away the dagger in his hand. His cold hands and feet became a little warmer, and he straightened his back and knelt down to receive the order.

When Fang Xuelin saw that the plan was about to be completed, she glanced at Shi Zhengbo, who was looking at her with disgusting eyes, and fainted from fright.

This time she was not pretending. When she fainted, she hit the ground with a heavy sound, which scared her maid and rushed to help her.

Such a big event happened at the palace banquet. After the imperial edict was issued, the people who came from the Pei Mansion naturally had no intention of continuing to attend the banquet.

Shen Yuan was helped into the carriage by Zhi Luo. She heard that Pei Zhaoxue and Fang Xuelin were riding in the same carriage and had to take care of her, but she felt nothing.

"It's just right. If he doesn't come, I can save my energy to deal with him."

I guess he must be thinking about why she is so ignorant and wants to push Fang Xuelin into the fire pit for her own selfish desires.

But she didn't care, that was all as long as she was happy.

In her previous life, Fang Xuelin planned this drama with the intention of ruining her innocence so that she could move from the concubine to the palace.

If she hadn't been lucky enough to pierce Shi Zhengbo's eyes with a hairpin, she would never have been able to escape.

And how did Pei Zhaoxue handle this matter? The emperor just asked Shi Zhengbo to hit Shi Zhengbo dozens of times, but Fang Xuelin disappeared beautifully.

This time she gave Fang Xuelin a chance, but she still insisted on finding trouble with her, so don't blame her for fighting back.

It was late at night when the carriage arrived at Pei's house, and Shen Yuan told Zhiluo that anyone who came to look for her tonight would say she was not feeling well, so don't let anyone in.

There are only two people coming, one is Pei Fang and the other is Pei Zhaoxue.

She cut her neck with a dagger and bled a lot. Now she was so uncomfortable that she didn't bother to brace herself to deal with them.

The branches fell, which really allowed Shen Yuan to sleep peacefully until dawn.

When she woke up, it was already bright outside. She glanced at the position next to her, and there was no sign of sleeping. She guessed that Pei Zhaoxue had not come back to sleep at all.

"Tsk, it looks like he really feels sorry for his cousin."

Shen Yuan washed and dressed with Zhi Luo waiting on her, and learned that besides Pei Zhaoxue and Pei Fangshi, two other people had come to see her last night.

One is Shen Xuan, who said that the sale and tribute of sea urchins have been a great success, and he may have the opportunity to become an imperial merchant.

The other one was the Minister of Honglu Temple, who said that if it was convenient for her, she could go to the largest restaurant in the capital to talk to him today to discuss the purchase of sea urchins and other matters.

Shen Yuan looked in the mirror at the wound on her neck that she had wrapped with red gauze. She felt that the pain was not too much, and asked Zhiluo to order someone to hitch the carriage. She planned to go out later.

Zhiluo was a little worried: "But Madam, you are still injured. It's probably not good to go out and see the wind now."

Just as Shen Yuan was about to retort, a black shadow suddenly fell in front of her, and a cold voice struck her ears.

"It's not good. Don't go out today. Stay at home to recuperate. I also have something to tell you."

The young man's face was pale, his eyes were obviously black and blue, and he looked like he had not slept all night.

 Shen Yuan: It’s great.

  Off-topic: I have finally passed this water test, which is gratifying. However, there will be a paid PK later, and I don’t know what it will be like. I’ll try my best.
