I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

398 Showdown

How could it be him?

Pei Zhaoyue stared at Pei Qian, who was walking towards her step by step under the moonlight and flames. She couldn’t understand why he would treat her like this. They were related by blood.

At the same time, Lin Sui, who was listening to Lu Ze’s story, had the same thoughts as Pei Zhaoyue.

She could actually guess that Pei Qian definitely had a past with the Pei family that she didn’t know about, but Lin Sui didn’t expect Pei Qian to be so ruthless.

“Pei Qian’s mother was actually forced to her death by the Pei family.” Lu Ze knew about Pei Qian’s past better than Lin Sui did. “Pei Qian’s father originally liked his cousin, who grew up with him, and she’s currently Marquis Ning Yuan’s wife.

However, something happened to Marquis Ning Yuan at that time and he needed the help of Pei Qian’s mother’s family.

Then, Marquis Ning Yuan married Pei Qian’s mother, which naturally helped resolve the crisis.”

When Lu Ze saw that Lin Sui was listening to his story seriously, he continued, “But Marquis Ning Yuan isn’t a grateful person.

Not only that, but he also resented Pei Qian’s mother because of this and felt that Pei Qian’s mother had gotten between him and his childhood sweetheart.

Therefore, when Pei Qian’s maiden family encountered difficulties later on, Marquis Ning Yuan didn’t help. Instead, he took the opportunity to completely destroy Pei Qian’s family.

After Pei Qian’s maiden family collapsed, the status of Pei Qian’s mother in Marquis Ning Yuan’s ministry could be imagined.

Marquis Ning Yuan’s previous plan was to abolish Pei Qian’s position as heir. However, at that time, the Fourth Prince’s mother and Consort De were in a fierce dispute. For the sake of Marquis Ning Yuan’s reputation, this matter was temporarily put on hold. Later on, Pei Qian rose up through the ranks and slowly reached the point where he was no longer at his father’s mercy.”

It had not been easy for Pei Qian to reach this point.

Outsiders didn’t know what he had experienced.

However, as a member of the Pei family, Pei Zhaoyue knew about it very well.

She stared at Pei Qian, who had walked up to her. After a while, she came back to her senses and asked with a quivering voice, “Why are you here?”

“Why can’t it be me?” Pei Qian tilted his head as he looked at Pei Zhaoyue in confusion. “I always thought that you knew everything!”

“I’m your aunt! Aren’t you afraid that your father will hold you accountable if he finds out?” Pei Zhaoyue was still putting up a struggle.

She could clearly see the killing intent in Pei Qian’s eyes, but she was unwilling to face it.

It wasn’t that she had forgotten about the past, but she didn’t want to think about it. As Pei Qian’s power stabilized bit by bit, she didn’t want to look back at what she had done in the past even more.

Even though Pei Qian had always been respectful to her at that time, the more respectful Pei Qian was, the more she apprehensive felt.

“When do you plan to tell Marquis Ning Yuan?” Not only was Pei Qian not frightened by Pei Zhaoyue’s threat, but he was also curious. “Don’t leave so quickly after you go to the underworld. Wait a little longer. You might be able to see my father soon.

At that time, you can tell him yourself. How about that?”

“Pei Qian, you actually dare to kill your father?!” When she heard Pei Qian’s mockery, Pei Zhaoyue’s eyes widened. She had expected Pei Qian that was crazy, but she didn’t expect him to be crazy to this extent.

“Aunt, do you regret choosing Gao Xuwei as your new husband now?” Pei Qian didn’t respond to Pei Zhaoyue’s question. Instead, he changed the topic.

“Everyone thinks that you took a fancy to Gao Xuwei back then and wanted to marry him at all costs! You must have suffered after you escaped from the capital with such a reputation back then, right?”

Pei Qian walked to the chair Qian He had prepared for him and sat down. Then, he continued slowly, “After so many years, you’ve always wanted a child, but no matter how hard you tried, you never got pregnant. You must have felt very indignant, right?”

“You did all of this?!” At this point, how could Pei Zhaoyue not understand the reason behind all her misfortune?

But why?!

She had already admitted her mistake and had already tried her best to make up for it. Wasn’t that enough?!

“Yes, Aunt, do you like it?” Pei Qian narrowed his eyes as he smiled at Pei Zhaoyue. “I know what you want to say. You want to say that you already realized your mistake later on. Moreover, when Marquis Ning Yuan wanted to strip me of my position, you even spoke up for me.

But Aunt, do you still remember how my mother died?

Do you need me to help you recall how my mother treated you?!

Do you really not know how sincere my mother treated you and the entire ministry? But what happened to her in the end?!

You heartless people. My mother’s family helped the entire Marquis Ning Yuan ministry survive. You needed my maternal grandfather’s help, so you guys asked Marquis Ning Yuan, who was still just an heir at that time, to trick my mother into this marriage!

But in the end, what did my mother and my grandparents get in return?

Marquis Ning Yuan resented them. In the end, you guys even ruined the lives of my maternal family.

My mother was even locked up by you guys. Even I, who was still young at that time, was abused in every way. In the end, she died a miserable death.

“Aunt, did you know that my mother didn’t even close her eyes when she passed away?! I was the one who told her to leave in peace, and that I would definitely avenge her and my grandfather. Then, she finally closed her eyes.

A dirty bloodline like the Pei family is not worthy of continuing to exist!

“So, Aunt, it’s impossible for you to have a child in this lifetime! Give up.”

Pei Zhaoyue stared at Pei Qian as she roared angrily, “Pei Qian, you’re a lunatic! You’re a lunatic!” Pei Zhaoyue felt as if she was seeing Pei Qian’s true colors for the first time and her expression was distorted by fear, but just as Pei Qian had said previously, even if she shouted until her throat was hoarse, she couldn’t escape unscathed.

“I’m still General Gao’s wife. Don’t forget that the Fourth Prince is still in the northern region! If you kill me like this, how will you deal with the aftermath?

Pei Qian, don’t forget what you relied on to achieve your current status!

If you really destroy Marquis Ning Yuan’s ministry, what else do you have to rely on? Do you really think you can survive in the royal court all alone?”
