To others, it seemed as though Wang Qiong held no contempt for Pei Xuanjing, a bandit who was wanted by the imperial court. He said loudly, “You daring Pei Xuanjing, stop blathering. Even I Imow that the Blood Demon Sect Master disappeared decades ago. How could he possibly show up in Tiandu?”
He continued to Pei Xuanjing, “As for your claim of seeking justice for your Shenxiao Sect disciples, it’s simply impossible. Your Shenxiao Sect has a long-standing feud with the imperial court, and it’s hard to tell right from wrong in such a brief moment. If you genuinely want justice, write a petition after today, submit it to the Three Judicial Departments, and wait for a retrial.”
“Today is the day we elect a new emperor for the Great Ming, your presence here is already disturbing the morning meeting. However, considering a new emperor will soon ascend the throne, I will spare your life. Withdraw now.”
His words were sound and heartfelt, without lofty airs. Everyone present couldn’t help but admire his magnanimity, deeming the minister deserving of his reputation.
“Hahaha…” Pei Xuanjing’s hearty laughter echoed around, reaching everyone’s ears.
When everyone’s attention was on him, Pei Xuanjing stopped laughing and slowly said, “Minister, you truly are magnanimous. They say that a minister’s mind is as deep as the sea, and it doesn’t seem untrue. I just hope that the Three Judicial Departments you speak of, are as reasonable as you are, and wont De arrala to accept our petitions In me ruture…”
“I am Gu Ji, the Left Deputy Imperial Censor of the Ducal Palace! You may hand your petition to me!” Gu Ji stepped forward decisively without Wang Qiong’s prompting, taking a direct approach.
Ten years had passed, and not many knew about the relationship between the two of them. Those who did know, found the situation even more peculiar, but no one dared to expose it.
“Alright!” Pei Xuanjing nodded, putting the matter aside.
Mentioning it here today was merely to establish a premise, foreshadowing future actions. His true intention was not this.
