Su Tang doesn't let him immerse himself in sadness, so he immediately changes the topic. Sure enough, when he hears sucang saying this, Pei Xuan is also silent.
"So…" Su Tang looked at the young man in front of her, some topics, no matter how cruel, but it was unavoidable after all: "remember the question I asked you in the capital, now, I'm going to ask you again, Pei Xuan, do you want to live into Li Zi, or face?"
When he was in the capital, Su Tang gave Pei Xuan advice and two plans in order to help Pei avoid some intentional calculation and forced marriage. When Su Tang asked Pei Xuan to collect money, he said that he wanted to live in Li Zi or face saving. These are two different solutions.
At that time, Pei Xuan's decision was made very quickly. What he wanted was the lining. So the story of the white haired devil spread all over the country. The little Duke of Pei's mansion was a madman who went mad when he was excited. The scandal between Pei and the good princess was also known all over the world.
But it also changed Pei's image to the outside world all the time, so that he found a position in the army, and slowly began to take over the power of Pei's Government in the army, and was respected.
Perhaps it was because of this that the old emperor was more afraid of the Pei family, which led to his later behavior. However, Su Tang's so-called "Li Zi" and "face" at that time, although to a certain extent, destroyed Pei's reputation, it was actually a help rather than a resistance to Pei's government and the whole Pei family.
But this time, the same question sucang asked again, but it was too heavy.
"In name, Zhou is the successor of Duke Pei. She married his wife seriously. It's very easy for her to die. But what did she die for? You have to make a decision.
If we uncover her true face, the evidence of adultery and pregnancy between Zhou and outsiders is conclusive, and it is not worth dying. Such a woman's position is absolutely not allowed on Pei family's ancestral tomb. The Zhou family also dare not admit that such a woman is a member of her own family.
But in this way, Duke Pei has served in the army all his life, and his reputation has been tarnished by this woman. I'm afraid that Pei's Centennial foundation will also be criticized. " 12 Novels www.12shuo.com
Su Tang and Pei Xuan analyze two different ways of dealing with them. "The other is to deal with the Zhou family in private, but do not disclose the cause of her death. Your stepson must bear the reputation of not allowing her stepmother.
If the cause of her death is not disclosed, the Zhou family will be buried in the Pei family's ancestral tomb after her death, since she is the stephouse of the orthodox marriage.
According to the marriage law of Qihuang state, although the stepwife is also the main room, the status of the stepwife is weaker than that of the original wife, so they can be buried together with the husband and the original wife.
One thing you may not know is that after Zhou married your father, according to my investigation, he should have never touched Zhou, except that he was calculated five months ago.
But if you do this, your father's reputation will be guaranteed. The Pei family's Centennial foundation and the war god family's reputation will not be tarnished at all. "
After saying these, Su Tang looked at Pei, "now, you have to make a choice. Do you want lining or face?"
This is the reason why Su Tang did not deal with Zhou directly. Zhou's death is not worthy of regret. She killed her husband and planned to plot Pei's life. Such people have nothing to say.
But Zhou's identity is special. Even if she dies, she has to have a serious regulation. It's easy to ask her to die. However, if things are not handled clearly, it will be troublesome.
After su Tang finished, she looked at Pei with an unbearable face. This decision was very difficult. On the one hand, it was the reputation of his father and Pei family, and on the other hand, it was the love that his parents had been together for a lifetime.
