People have different personalities, and the motivations that lead to words and deeds are also different.

After killing Pei Juxian, Li Qinzai also guessed the reason why Pei Juxian insisted on breaking into the palace.

Pei Juxian is not a fool, the prince is critically ill, the whole city has a curfew, and the guards of the East Palace have changed generals, all these signs show that the prince's condition at that time was already very serious, otherwise the Qianniu guards in front of the gate of the East Palace would not be like a great enemy.

When everyone was nervous, Pei Juxian rushed out, relying on his identity as the uncle of the crown princess, and insisted on crossing the red line set by Li Qinzai and insisting on breaking into the palace.

Of course, he didn't come to visit the prince, in fact, Pei Juxian's death had something to do with Li Qinzai.

The two had a dispute at that time, in front of many family lords, Pei Juxian couldn't pull down the concession, let alone weaken the reputation of the Pei family in Hedong, in order to fight for this evil breath, Pei Juxian made an irrational move, and also gave Li Qinzai a reason to shoot him.

To put it simply, the reason for Pei Juxian's death was to gamble, and in the end he lost the bet, Li Qinzai was not used to him, and that's it.

Now that the crown princess and the Pei clan have come to the door to ask for the crime, Li Qinzai has no intention of getting used to them.

In this world, except for his wife, children and blood relatives, no one can make Li Qinzai compromise, people who have lived two lives, even if they can't do everything they want, at least they should stick to their hearts, and don't do anything if they don't want to.

Faced with Li Qinzai's sharp explanation, the crown princess was so angry that her face turned red.

"Li Qinzai, you slandered the uncle of the palace in person, you have no respect for the elders and the young, and the laws of the Tang Dynasty are strict, how can you be allowed to ignore people's lives and be arrogant!"

Li Qinzai smiled: "The crown princess wants to talk to the ministers about the laws of the Tang Dynasty?" The minister dared to ask, Pei Juxian relied on the identity of the prince's relatives and was arrogant outside the East Palace, and the minister warned him again and again, he still insisted on breaking into the palace, may I ask the crown princess, does the uncle count him as breaking the law? ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was critically ill that night, the Son of Heaven ordered a curfew for the whole city, and the East Palace was not allowed to enter and leave the East Palace, but Pei Juxian somehow had to break into the East Palace, if according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, Pei Juxian's move was complicit, what was wrong with the minister ordering him to be killed?"

The crown princess said angrily: "You are strong! Uncle has always been unhindered from entering and leaving the East Palace, but you stopped him, and you deliberately lured him into within ten zhang, and then ordered him to be shot, and the uncle of the palace clearly died under the provocation of your words. ”

Li Qinzai said coldly: "It was before, that night was that night, that night was that night, that night His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was already critically ill and dying, how sensitive the situation was at that time, didn't the princess know?" Since the Son of Heaven has ordered his ministers to guard the palace, and anyone who dares to cross the thunder pond by half a step, I will have the right to kill, and this right is granted by the Son of Heaven himself. ”

The crown princess was stunned when she heard this, in fact, she also listened to the detailed report of the palace people that night, Pei Juxian's actions that night did cross the line, especially at such a sensitive juncture.

Today, she was instigated by the Pei clan and came to the door to ask for the guilt, the crown princess is actually still a little weak-hearted, after all, the real wrong person does not seem to be Li Qinzai.

Her face was red and blue, and after a long time, the crown princess suddenly hid her face and cried: "I, the surviving person, is alive in the world, His Royal Highness the Prince's bones are not cold, I didn't expect to be bullied so soon, why is the life of this palace so bitter......"

Li Qinzai's eyes flashed with disgust, the dignified princess, in front of the public, cried, made trouble and hanged herself, and the etiquette and decency of the heavenly family were completely lost by her.

It's okay for you to make trouble, don't make trouble at my doorstep, don't my Li family want to lose face?

"If the crown princess feels that the minister has bullied you, and the minister does not dare to defend herself, it is better for you and me to go to Taiji Palace together, and discuss it clearly in front of Your Majesty's steps, if Your Majesty also thinks that the minister killed the wrong person, the minister will not say a word, and is willing to make amends to the Pei family in Hedong and receive punishment!"

Li Qinzai said and suddenly raised his voice: "Come on, prepare the carriage and horses, and enter the Taiji Palace!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the crown princess and the Pei clan were a little flustered.

It doesn't matter if you come to the Li family to make trouble, nominally the crown princess is a heavenly housewife, and her status is higher than Li Qinzai, so she can ask for guilt in front of Li Qinzai.

But if it comes to Li Zhi, the nature of the matter will be different.

In particular, the crown princess and the Pei clan are very clear that Pei Juxian did not take advantage of the incident that night, as Li Qinzai said, breaking into the palace for no reason is like complicity, if it is in front of the Son of Heaven, it is not good that the Son of Heaven will not only not favor the Pei family, but will even link the Pei clan and issue a thorough investigation and strict handling.

This risk can't be taken, her own man has passed away, and the crown princess has lost her biggest backer in the palace, and she doesn't want to cause trouble to her mother's family anymore.

"You...... Li Qinzai, the clansman who killed my Pei clan is still arguing skillfully, my Pei clan in Hedong is a prestigious clan in the world, how can you be arrogant! Pei Juxian's coffin has not yet been buried in the ground, since he died at your hands, you enter my Pei family and keep a vigil for him for three days, isn't it too much? A member of the Pei clan stood up and said.

Li Qinzai sneered, he must maintain courtesy to the crown princess, but to the people of the Pei family, Li Qinzai does not have such a good temper.

"Again, let's go to Your Majesty to discuss right and wrong, if I'm wrong, let me kill anyone, if I'm not wrong, why should I keep a guard for a dead criminal? There are no such rules in the world! ”

Oil and salt do not advance, half a step does not retreat, Li Qinzai's attitude makes the Pei family angry and helpless.

The crown princess headed by the crown princess suddenly found that it was really a little impulsive to come to the door today to ask for the guilt.

originally thought that Li Qinzai would be able to bow his head and compromise for her identity, and give the Pei family an explanation, without him having to pay money and accept the guilt, as long as Pei Juxian was kept awake for three days, it could be regarded as an implicit reparation.

Who knew that Li Qinzai was so strong, and the identity of the crown princess couldn't suppress him at all.

When you open your mouth, you have to discuss black and white right and wrong in front of the Son of Heaven, and when the matter is in front of the Son of Heaven, the Pei family in Hedong can't hold the reason at all, where does the princess have the guts.

Outside the Guogong Mansion, there were more and more people watching the excitement, and countless people stood far away, pointing at her and the Pei clan, and the crown princess became more and more anxious.

She is a heavenly wife, face is more important than life, and when she came to the door to ask for the crime today, it can be said that she was messing around, and when the matter spread, the reputation of the crown princess was damaged, and she could not be severely reprimanded by the Son of Heaven and the queen.

It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, Pei Juxian's death can only be stopped, so many people together can't help Li Qinzai, what else?

The crown princess gritted her teeth, glared at Li Qinzai hatefully, for a long time, and suddenly turned around and left.

The Pei clan was stunned, and after thinking about it, leaving at this time might be the most suitable choice, at least to retain the last dignity of the Pei clan.

So the Pei clan also reluctantly followed the crown princess away.

Li Qinzai stood outside the gate of the mansion, a look of ridicule flashed in his eyes, and then he bowed to the back of the crown princess.

"Congratulations to the crown princess."
