Chapter 1118 - 254: Not Afraid of Being Exposed_3
Zhang Gengshan had long known that Pei Zongli’s family had arrived in Capital Jingcheng. "I was earlier wondering if they would have the shamelessness to come knocking at our door to acknowledge us, and here they are already!"
Upon hearing this, Pei Qian slammed her palm on the table, "They must have seen my elder sister! They’re definitely eyeing the fact that she’s a Tiance General and thinking of extorting us!"
Madam Zhao pondered, "They wouldn’t dare to spout nonsense! Not to mention that Pei Qin is about to announce her identity, but also that the Surrender Army of the Rong Clan is still present. If they decide to recklessly expose Pei Qin’s identity, they would be finished as well! The Imperial Court has made it clear that they won’t intervene or acknowledge the issue, and they won’t allow Pei Qin to resign from her post."
"Driven to a desperate action," Pei Yuan scoffed coldly. Speaking of hatred, the Pei family was the one they loathed the most in their lifetimes!
A glint of murderous intent flashed in Pei Qian’s eyes as she ground her teeth in anger, "I didn’t sentence them to death, but here they are, coming right to our doorstep to deliver themselves to their demise!"
"Don’t you go acting rashly," Pei Yuan cautioned her.
"I’m not impulsive!" Pei Qian pursed her lips in response. Her second sister was timid and weak, but she was not like her! Their eldest sister said she didn’t hold grudges, so she nearly forgot as well. Yet she would never forget how Old Pei’s House had abused them, how Pei Zongli and that bitch Lady Qian had harmed their mother, snatched their rewards, and plotted against their lives! They had narrowly escaped death several times! The time they were falsely accused of being spies for a foreign country and taken to Runing Prefecture for interrogation, she truly thought they were going to die.
All those schemes were orchestrated by that bitch Lady Qian. Before, when they were in decline, but now her eldest sister was a Tiance General, the highest among officials, and her sister’s husband was a Second Rank General. Now each of them was stronger than their. How could they allow themselves to be schemed against and harmed anymore?
