After Rebirth, She Becomes the Revenge Queen-Chapter 459 - 325: Your Daughter-in-law is About to Run Away (Seeking Monthly Pass)_2
Mrs. Feng held Fu Zhen’s hand, looking her up and down, and asked many questions. As she asked, her eyes turned red, and tears began to roll down.
In the countless curses directed at Xu Yin, a few voices saying "I’m sorry" pierced Fu Zhen’s eardrums.
On the night Liang Zhi reunited with Fu Zhen, he mentioned that because of Liang Ning’s death, both Mrs. Feng and Mrs. Cao were deeply shocked and felt a profound sense of guilt.
This is why Fu Zhen chose to be frank with her two sisters-in-law. Despite Xu Yin’s betrayal, she couldn’t deny that genuine feelings still existed in the world because she had already witnessed the purest and kindest of humanity.
After half a day, the whole household finally calmed down.
The two ladies finally returned their thoughts to reality, repeatedly talking about how Mrs. Ning had not had an easy time, sending someone to pick an auspicious day to pay a proper visit and express their gratitude.
They carefully asked about every detail from the time Fu Zhen woke up until now. When they saw that it was getting late, they sent Su Xinger to arrange for the kitchen to prepare a meal.
Su Xinger turned around and said, "Go to the Pei family and invite General Pei as well!"
Hearing this, a look of satisfaction finally appeared on Mrs. Cao’s face. She pinched Fu Zhen’s cheek and said, "After suffering a loss, you’ve finally become a bit smarter! Zhan Er is a good child; you found yourself a treasure!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Mrs. Feng listened with joy, "Zhan Er is dependable, steady, and very brave. He’s not young anymore, and the Pei family is quite sparse now. You should move back and live with us for a while. I’ll take good care of you, so you can give him children soon."
Before Fu Zhen could respond, she sighed and said, "You, since childhood, have been impatient with these things of a daughter’s home. The Pei family’s elder sister, she spends her days with her husband and isn’t patient with kids either.
"Once you have children, just leave them here. Your second sister-in-law and I will help you take care of them."
"Exactly," Mrs. Cao got more enthusiastic hearing this, "Our house is so big; we should have more kids running around to make it lively! We don’t have much to do now, so you teach them to read and write, and I’ll teach them martial arts!"
Seeing it getting more and more outrageous, Fu Zhen quickly interrupted, "We’re not even close to that yet, stop talking about it!"
"What do you mean not close? You’re already married, why act like outsiders?" Mrs. Cao said, "I’ll tell Zhan Er when he comes over!"
The words "fake marriage" slipped to the tip of Fu Zhen’s tongue, but seeing her sisters-in-law’s still red and swollen eyes, she swallowed them back down...
After leaving the Dali Temple, Pei Zhan headed to the palace.
Recently, there have been some disturbances in the court, somewhat related to the emperor’s illness.
That day, after the situation was resolved in Qianqing Palace, the emperor personally stabbed the Crown Prince to death, and then issued orders with unstoppable force to detain all personnel of the Eastern Palace.
After the situation was under control, the emperor also fell ill.
Back in the day, he sustained many injuries while conquering the world; later, exhausting himself dealing with Dayue, he developed chronic illnesses. It’s long been a concern for everyone, and this time, the Crown Prince caused such a huge disturbance. It’s commendable the emperor managed to stabilize the situation until the end; how could he handle the anger and disappointment of being forced into a coup by his own son afterward?
The Empress and the Imperial Physician stayed by his side day and night; the internal documents were delivered directly to the emperor’s bed by the Director of the Inner Palace. The Empress made decisions on matters she could; only for difficult decisions did she seek the emperor’s opinion.
When Pei Zhan reached outside Qianqing Palace, he heard the emperor inside coughing violently, and immediately saw the Empress’s silhouette in the open window.
Palace Attendants were bustling in and out, and the busy scene made Pei Zhan turn around and furrow his brows, staring at the Glazed Tile ahead.
"Fifth Brother?"
Cheng Chili’s surprised voice came from under the gallery, and he hurried over: "What are you doing standing here? Not going to see the emperor? I was just about to find you!"
Pei Zhan took a step towards the steps: "I have no urgent matters, just came to have a look. The emperor seems a bit unwell right now; it would not be appropriate for me to go in and disturb him."
As he said this, he looked at the document in Cheng Chili’s hand: "Why are you looking for me? Where is that from?"
Cheng Chili said, "It’s a response from the Ministry of War after the audit of the imperial guard in the palace. My father and others supervised the inspection and asked me to deliver this."
With that, he gestured: "You wait for me here; I’ll deliver it to the Director of the Inner Palace and come right back!"
Having said so, he crossed the threshold.
Pei Zhan descended the steps, walked a few steps forward, and then sat down on a railing in a secluded corridor.
Cheng Chili hurriedly ran out and found him, then said, "You’ve handed your cases over to the three judiciary offices for trial, with Uncle Pei overseeing, there shouldn’t be much left for you recently, right?"
