When the banquet was over, Pei Qiongli knelt down, she was nervously stirring her fingers, full of fear, she didn't dare to look up at the old marquise and the marquise, let alone look at Pei De, just because she was full of immaturity and didn't actually guess that all this had already been known by the two of them, and she was just an important chess piece.

"I didn't think you'd be so bold!" Pei De raised his hand and smashed a tea cup as he spoke, which frightened the Marquise to kneel on the spot, so frightened that Pei Qiongli's tears overflowed violently, and she didn't even dare to gasp more.

Pei Qiongli thought that Pei De was talking about herself, racking her brains to think about how to explain, but after thinking about it for a long time, she didn't come up with a proper reason, and she didn't even know how to mention Zhao Kang.

"Master Hou, this matter ...... I don't know. The Marquise gritted her teeth and simply threw the dirty water out, for no one knew what she was doing except the old Marquise.

"Don't know? It's ridiculous! As the mistress of the palace, you can hide anything from you! Li'er and that Zhao Kang are cheating under your nose, if it weren't for your instructions, Zhao Kang would not even know where the door of Li'er's courtyard would open! Pei De was furious, pointed at the Marquise and scolded angrily.

The Marquise had never been reprimanded like this by Pei De since she married into the palace, and her eyes were red for a while, and she sobbed in a low voice.

Seeing this, Pei Qiongli also smoked, and the two of them smoked together in front of Pei De, which was simply the biggest taboo of Pei De.

Pei De slapped the desk and yelled in extreme annoyance: "Now you know that you are crying? I just want to cry! I've never dealt with the Zhao family, but I never thought that you and the Zhao family would be like this? Even the daughter of the family is thinking about getting married? I look at you just because Li'er is a concubine, bullying her for not being sensible and ignorant, why don't you marry Hua'er to fulfill your plan! The more Pei De spoke, the more angry he became, and he got up and kicked on the desk beside him, in order to vent the grievances and anger in his heart.

Pei De was indeed very aggrieved, he never thought that the first person to join the rebels would be his wife!

"De'er is slapping me in the face with this?" The old marquise finally opened her mouth, she is from a famous family, and there is always responsibility.

"How dare my son?" Pei De gritted his teeth and said resentfully.

"How dare you say a good sentence, do you know how many enemies you have made now because of your grudge with the Zhao family?" The old marquise sneered and asked angrily.

"My son doesn't really care about that! If the son has a grudge with the Zhao family, he is not afraid of the Zhao family's stumbling block! Pei De still had a clear attitude, and he looked like he was going to demolish the Zhao family's mansion in the next moment.

"Have you ever heard a sentence that even if he is as filthy as Wei Gelding, there is still a reason for his existence. Even though the Zhao family is bad in all sorts, he has a reason to exist after all! You don't have a grudge against the Zhao family, even if you are only friends on the surface, why do you have to work so hard? The old marquise shook her head, her face full of helplessness, and tried to admonish Pede.

But Pei De really didn't appreciate it, he waved his hand and said with a firm face: "My son has been a marquis for many years and knows the way of officialdom, my mother doesn't have to worry, let alone do such a dirty thing!"

"Master Hou can't say that! Mother is all for you, for the good of the Hou Mansion! Even if the Hou Ye doesn't appreciate it, he shouldn't say that about his mother! The Marquise looked up sharply and rebuked softly.

"It's the son who is impulsive, and the mother must not blame!" Pei De shook his hands with a calm face, turned around and pulled away Pei Qiongli, who was sobbing and didn't know, while Pei Qionghua was angry and anxious but helpless, so he could only stare dryly.

The Marquise and the old Marquise looked at each other, their eyes full of depth.
