The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
62. Chu Fei Admitted His Mistake
Since Lu Jing Yu was pregnant, food was not served in the side hall as usual but rather inside Pei Zhang Xi's room, Huang Zuan's pavilion. Aunt Wu led the servants in to serve all the food on the table. One by one they were neatly laid. Then all the servants retreated backwards to wait for the order.
"Your Majesty, all the food has been served." Aunt Wu said after seeing everything neat.
Pei Zhang Xi always had a cautious attitude in his life. He will always be suspicious of something other than what he can truly believe. That was why the servants who served food for him also did not escape his attention.
Especially since they entered, one of the servants looked strange. It was undeniable that in fact Chu Fei had already acted so naturally. But Pei Zhang Xi could still see the fear in his eyes.
"Has everything been well checked?" Pei Zhang Xi asked Aunt Wu, but his eyes went around staring at all the servants present. It made Chu Fei lose her calm again. He fell down and knelt on the floor.
"Puni is His Majesty's servant. I had to do it." Chu Fei hit him on the floor with a bang. "Please servant. Someone forced the servant to give the Empress medicine, the man made the servant's family a threat."
"Please! Plaque." Aunt Wu pulled Chu Fei over and appeared loudly.
"Hamba is willing to be punished. But I beg Your Majesty to help the servant's family. They are all innocent and know nothing. I beg for mercy, Your Majesty.
"Guards bring this white-eyed servant! Whip to death to be a lesson to all." Pei Zhang Xi called the guards.
"In a moment Your Majesty." Lu Jing Yu did not agree to use one's life as punishment. According to him everything can still be discussed and resolved properly without any lives to be eliminated.
"Yu'er, this servant is already brash and already dares to have the intention to poison you. What if I don't realize it? I will never forgive anyone who intends to hurt you."
"I know he was wrong. Did he not admit his mistake? Wasn't this his first mistake?"
"I don't care. He's gonna hurt you, then he's gonna have to die." Pei Zhang Xi's anger did not diminish in the slightest.
"Your Majesty please calm yourself."
"I can't calm down Yu'er. I'm sure after today there will be no peace in this residence. They could not bear to act immediately. If I forgive those who betray like this servant, everyone will begin to betray."
"Listen to my explanation." Lu Jing Yu looked at the killing intent that did not diminish in the slightest and began to pacify Pei Zhang Xi.
"Who told me to?" Lu Jing Yu asked Chu Fei after Pei Zhang Xi started to look calm. Pei Zhang Xi snorted. He was used to finishing quickly. The fastest way is death. He will not forgive a traitor.
"Hamba really doesn't know. I met him accidentally one week ago and started threatening me. That person always wore a veil and covered his entire body with a robe. But from her features and voice the servant can recognize that she is a girl." Chu Fei replied honestly. The girl also started to calm down. At this stage he had already resigned if he really had to be sentenced to death.
"Then what does he want you to do?"
"The man gave the servant a medicine to put into the Empress' food drama, he said that the medicine was not poison, so it would not be detected by using silver needles. Nor would it react to ordinary people. But I don't know what the cure is." Chu Fei took out the remaining powder that was given to her. Even though he had strengthened his heart, he still could not bear to do so. So he only put in half of all the powder he had to give.
Aunt Wu took over the powder and gave it to Pei Zhang Xi. "Call physician Fang and physician Xue here."
"No need to call us. We're already here." Physician Fang and Physician Xue entered the room. They were initially in a hurry to arrive out of fear that they would be late. They had forgotten that Pei Zhang Xi was a very cautious person. They immediately put down their worries after knowing the state of affairs in the room. Looks like the traitor's been found out.
"You guys?"
"How dare they intend to eliminate my son. But who had such evil intentions?" Pei Zhang Xi was furious and clenched his hands tightly.
"I have a plan." Lu Jing Yu would also not forgive the person who had intended to eliminate her baby. He is not a good person who will let people who intend to harm let alone his innocent child candidates get away with it.
"Your Majesty the Empress, this is the pendant that the person dropped by accident. Hopefully it can help to find that person "Chu Fei took out a pendant that is someone's identification. Aunt Wu took it and handed it to Pei Zhang Xi.
"Mo Han, investigate the owner of this locket."
"Your Majesty."
"Guard, take this servant to receive punishment." Pei Zhang Xi was still unable to let go of Chu Fei.
"Hamba is willing to accept this punishment as long as His Majesty promises to save the servant's family. Even if the servant dies, the servant will not issue a complaint." Chu Fei was already at the limit of not being afraid of anything.
"You are so brave!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive him and promise to protect his family." Lu Jing Yu held Pei Zhang Xi's hand.
"But..."
"Your Majesty, I know his mistake is great. But if today we give him punishment and let his family also become victims, in the future if there are more people who try to threaten helpless people like them, he said, they will not hesitate to do so. But if today His Majesty is willing to help him protect his family, everyone in this residence will have a sense of security so that they will not hesitate to stand by our side. If anyone tries to take advantage of them by using their family as a threat, they just need to ask us for help and they will never betray. Moreover, if we punish him at this time, won't our plan fail?"
"According to the servant of the Queen's speech is true." Physician Fang looked at Chu Fei.
"It seems like it's better that way." Under everyone's persuasion, Pei Zhang Xi finally agreed to release Chu Fei.
"Thank you Your Majesty. I promise to be faithful for the rest of my life and I will not betray whatever happens." Chu Fei fell into joy. If the employer is someone else, let alone the opportunity to be forgiven, he will not escape severe punishment.
"His Majesty the King and Empress Rui are very wise. We pledge allegiance our whole life." Everyone is very happy to know that guarantee. As mediocre people like them, they are very easy to become easy targets for everyone who intends to harm their employer. Their families will be dragged away by it. No one ever thought about their unbelief. But today, Empress Rui actually saw it and they were very lucky to have such an employer. The brand's respect for Lu Jing Yu also doubled compared to before.
