At the top of the main hall, the old emperor was furious and wanted to cut Pei Lin into pieces, but when he saw Pei Lin's red eyes, he suddenly felt guilty.
"Pei Lin, what are you talking nonsense about? I'm thinking about the overall situation. I didn't let you revoke your status as Princess Fengjing before because you have already paid homage to each other and are a real couple. If I revoke your status as Princess Fengjing,
, the people are afraid of saying that my royal family has gone too far to deceive others, I originally planned to make the decision for you to abolish this princess after a while."
The old emperor was quibbling, and Pei Lin looked at him steadily, his eyes clearly saying, "You make it up, keep making it up."
The old emperor was choked instantly, and the blood in his chest kept surging.
Pei Lin spoke again: "Some things have happened one after another these days. I have been wondering why your majesty treated me like this. Is it because of the oral instructions left by the late emperor that when your majesty dies in the future, I will take over the throne of Dayan.
"
As soon as these words came out, all the eunuchs and maids in the hall gasped, "What, what do you mean?"
The old emperor, the head of the hall, even shouted angrily: "Pei Lin, what are you talking nonsense about?"
Pei Lin raised his head and looked at the old emperor: "Why else would your majesty target me? Is it because I am superior to the master?"
No matter what the reason is, it is fatal.
The old emperor's face was twisted with extreme anger.
He raised his hand and slapped the table on one side, shouting: "Pei Lin, you are so bold, do you think I dare not execute you?"
Pei Lin looked at the old emperor with a smile: "Your Majesty has forgotten that when the emperor left his oral message, he did so in front of four ministers. If your Majesty executes me, you will not be afraid of them leaking the matter, even if they don't say it.
, Don’t I have any backup plan? If Your Majesty is not afraid of being infamous for thousands of years, not afraid of the 200,000 troops in the northwest, and not afraid of the destruction of Great Yan, then you can order the execution of this king."
Pei Lin's face was calm, without any fear. Over the years, he had endured and endured. Until today, he dared to face the old emperor directly. Now he has the Dragon Shadow Guards, an army of 200,000 people from the northwest, and the hearts of the people.
.
The old emperor persecuted too much, and if he rebelled, the people would not say that he was a traitor to the Yan Dynasty, not to mention that he still had the imperial edict left by the emperor.
The old emperor was so angry that he trembled and wished he could order Pei Lin to be executed immediately.
But he knew that he couldn't. Pei Lin was no longer the defenseless child he used to be. Now he had become stronger.
He couldn't face him head-on.
When the old emperor thought of this, he felt so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, but there was nothing he could do.
At this moment, he hated his mother. If his mother had given Hong Yanqu to him, Pei Lin would have died long ago, and how could he be humiliated today?
In addition to his mother, he also hated the Feng family. Without the Feng family's substitute marriage, Pei Lin would not be facing him directly now.
The old emperor was furious in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. He suppressed the anger in his heart, looked at Pei Lin and said in a deep voice.
"I'm thinking about you, what are you talking nonsense about? How can Fengjing, a woman who got pregnant out of wedlock and gave birth to a bastard, deserve to be the Princess of Yanjin?"
After he finished speaking, he said with a heavy face: "But it is indeed a matter of fact that she saved you. It would be better if I decreed that she should be demoted to the palace's concubine, and then I would designate a noble girl as the princess for you."
At this time, the old emperor had completely lost his previous anger, his face was full of charity, and he seemed to be an uncle who cared about his nephew.
Pei Lin looked at him like this, and the corners of his mouth became even more sarcastic. This man did have some abilities.
That is forbearance. He relied on this forbearance to work hard to be humble in front of his father, to be diligent and careful in front of the emperor's grandfather, and to be friendly and charitable in front of him.
He was able to sit on the throne of Dayan because of his forbearance and caution. To this day, the forbearance and caution in his bones are still there.
But Pei Lin has many ways to force him to jump out.
Pei Lin thought about it and said calmly: "I have promised to let her take the position of Princess Yanjin. Once I have agreed, I will not go back on it. Please fulfill it, Your Majesty."
The emperor saw that he was so helpless, and his heart was filled with hatred. If possible, he would have ordered the death of this man immediately.
But he knew that Pei Lin had the Dragon Shadow Guards and the Northwest Army in his hands, not to mention that he himself was very powerful.
Even if he wants to take action, he cannot succeed easily. If he fails to succeed in one fell swoop, he will be scolded by the people in the world. When Pei Lin rebels in anger, the people will not say anything about him. This is his true purpose.
The old emperor twisted his face and suppressed the fury in his heart. He looked at Pei Lin, who was at the head of the palace, and said.
"Since you want to protect her wholeheartedly, I will do it."
Although the old emperor hated his queen mother and the Feng family, what he hated most now was Feng Jing.
If it weren't for this woman, Pei Lin would never be fine.
He must get rid of this woman first.
The old emperor looked at Pei Lin thoughtfully and said: "Although she is the principal concubine of the prince's palace, she is a hindrance to the face of the prince's palace. I will issue an order to appoint a side concubine for you. Normally, let the side concubine take care of the prince's palace for you and entertain guests in the capital.
Ladies of various powerful families."
After the old emperor finished speaking, without waiting for Pei Lin to speak, he said: "Originally, your princess was supposed to be Feng Mingyue from Zhennanbo Mansion, but the Feng family actually engaged in a substitute marriage. It is really hateful. How dare the Feng family and Feng Mingyue
I can't let them off lightly for doing this, so let Feng Mingyue be the concubine of King Jin. Since she is not the princess, let her be the concubine."
After the old emperor finished speaking, he narrowed his eyes and stared at Pei Lin who was looking down.
If he decreed that another noble girl should enter the Jin Palace as a concubine, Pei Lin might refuse, but if Feng Mingyue enters the Jin Palace, Pei Lin would definitely not refuse.
Because no man can tolerate a woman's rejection of him, and now he has such an opportunity to humiliate this woman.
How could a man disagree?
At the head of the palace, Pei Lin listened to the old emperor's words, his eyes turned cold, and he said solemnly: "She is not worthy of being my concubine."
The old emperor immediately said: "If she is not worthy of being a concubine, let her be a concubine of the King of Jin."
The old emperor originally hated the Feng family for ruining his affairs. He didn't care whether Feng Mingyue was a concubine or a concubine. Anyway, he only had one purpose, which was to send Feng Mingyue to the Jin Palace to get rid of Feng Jing for him.
His Highness, Pei Lin, was about to refuse, but suddenly thought of Feng Jing and stopped.
In the past, the Feng family and Feng Mingyue had bullied Feng Jing in every possible way. If Feng Mingyue entered the Jin Palace, Feng Jing would be able to deal with Feng Mingyue.
Pei Lin thought about it, lifted the hem of his robe and accepted the order: "I accept the order."
The old emperor in the main hall breathed a sigh of relief and said helplessly: "Okay, since you don't want to abolish Princess Fengjing's identity, it's up to you to leave the palace."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Pei Lin also looked nonchalant as she thanked him and stood up to leave.
But as soon as he walked away, the old emperor dropped a bunch of things on his back. At the same time, his sharp eyes stared fiercely at the eunuchs and maids in the hall.
The eunuchs and maids were all trembling with fear. They had heard something they shouldn't have heard before. Even the eunuch Heshun was not immune to this fear.
The old emperor gave an order with an expressionless face: "If you come, all the people in the palace will be given poisonous wine."
