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!
