Spirit of the Phoenix: 16. Dispute


When the internal servant reported, the whole hall was shocked.

The emperor stood up in shock, almost doubting his ears. Da Sima also showed surprise, but Fang wanted to speak but was preempted by Zhongshuling Pei Junzhi.

Qingliu's party took the lead in imploring the sage to proclaim Pei Ansu to enter the palace. Peijun's Tanhua was born with great eloquence, and every word he said made others have no power to refute: "In the past, Emperor Taizong was benevolent, and the people of Qi beat drums to complain about the loss of pigs to their slaves. They didn't think it was disobedient. The people have no complaints! Kuang Taifu is loyal to the country, how can a sage refuse to see it?"

This is extremely harsh. During the Taizong period, if a pig was lost in the Caomin family, they could go to the Golden Luan Hall to complain, and were praised by Taizong. Now that the daughter of the Taifu begged to meet the saint, how could she dismiss her at will?

The emperor was like being roasted on the fire, sweating profusely. After muttering for a long time, he nodded slowly in response.

Pei Ansu is still in filial piety, her clothes are plain and clean without makeup, and a long jasper hairpin in her hair sets off her black hair and snowy face, which is very pitiful.

She knelt down in the Golden Luan Hall, and before she could say anything, Pei Junzhi couldn't wait to ask: "Mr. Pei is here today, but to face the holy prince's disrespect in front of the mourning hall on the day of condolences? Don't be panic, just tell the truth , the Holy One is just and strict, and he will uphold justice."

Pei Ansu bowed deeply, with a dignified demeanor and unwavering voice, she said in a clear and loud voice: "No. I am bold to face the saint today, and I did not come for the prince."

"What's more, the crown prince Bao Yuan has both morality and ability, and there is no impoliteness on the day of condolences!"

After saying a word, there was a complete silence in the hall, so quiet that one could hear a needle drop.

Pei Ansu didn't seem to realize it at all, and continued: "The prince is benevolent, filial, and virtuous. The act of cutting out his heart to save his father is truly a blessing to the world. It is my great fortune. My father knows it, and I should be very pleased."

The words made the emperor and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty confused.

The current government of Peijun launched an attack to impeach the prince for immorality again, and tried to abolish the prince. Pei Ansu came here alone, originally thinking that he was going to be Pei Junzhi's little witness, but he didn't expect that the court would sing against Pei Junzhi, and openly stand on the street for the prince, praising "the prince is benevolent and filial".

Are you speaking for your fiancé?

Manchao has made preparations for her to be a witness for Pei Junzhi, but he has no idea what she wants to do?

Emperor Pei Ansu was at a loss and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Pei Junzhi, however, gradually recovered from the shock, his heart was like an alarm bell, and he walked towards Pei Ansu abruptly.

"The crown prince loses virtue, □□/milk/mother. Virtue doesn't match, he should be abolished!" The chess piece in the plan slapped him, and Pei Junzhi was furious, unable to suppress it anymore, and asked sharply .

"A slave reads the commandments of women, and regards her husband as the sky. The sky cannot escape, and the husband cannot leave. I, the Pei family, have taught daughters with Joan of Arc for a hundred years, and I have never had a woman who has been cheated again. The sky is still there, why should the slave abandon her husband?"

Pei Ansu didn't answer the prince's lack of morality at all, and only said the words of female virtue, chastity and righteousness, which seemed to be a matter of nature, so that Pei Junzhi had no power to refute.

"The crown prince is the heir apparent of a country. The abolition of the establishment is related to the status of the country, so how can we allow a woman to talk about it!" He flicked his sleeves and turned around.

"Uncle's words are wrong! I came here today not to judge whether the prince is benevolent or not, but for myself."

The two argued in the court, Pei Junzhi insisted that the crown prince's abolishment could not be judged by the woman, Pei Ansu didn't answer his words, and only insisted back and forth to stick to the marriage contract and refused to withdraw from the marriage.

When the two were in a stalemate, Pei Ansu, who was quietly kneeling on the ground, suddenly pulled out a long emerald green hairpin from her hair, and thrust it towards her heart, screaming shrilly, with tears in her eyes: /

"It is better to die in righteousness than to live in the earth. If you make promises but don't believe them, how can you stand in the world?"

The jade hairpin was only for the hairpin, not a murder weapon. Pei Ansu acted fiercely and exhausted all his strength, but the long hairpin only entered the chest, and was pulled away by the waiting servant.

She took advantage of the situation and collapsed on the ground, half-closed her eyes, and vaguely saw the emperor rushing down from the dragon seat in spite of his dignity, and anxiously pointed at the servant and shouted: "Quick! Help! Who can take responsibility?"

Turning her head again, she said to Pei Ansu: "You child, you are too honest! Rui'er is young and unmarried, and you don't want to withdraw from the marriage, why would I want to! You just say it, why bother?" Looking for death? How can I be worthy of the spirit of the Taifu?"
