After letting go of his hand, he picked up the night incense bucket with one hand and dragged Xiao Er into the alley with the other.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the young man changed into Xiao Er's clothes and walked towards the inn with the night incense barrel.

When I entered the inn, there weren't many people inside.

It's just that a drunken cook saw him and scolded and said, "You kid quickly washed his hands and sent the things to the son on the second floor!" Really, it's not good to pour a night incense! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The boy was very nervous.

Not because he had just killed someone, but because he was afraid of being seen through.

When he arrived in the kitchen, the boy got hot water, used soap, and washed himself quickly.

One last glance at the spices in the corner of the kitchen, he walked over and grabbed a handful and sprinkled it on his body.

Shaking off the powder of the spices, the boy sniffed his elbow, and after not smelling the strange smell, he took the food box and walked slowly towards the second floor.

When he arrived at the door, he learned from the previous Xiao Er's appearance, bowed his back slightly, knocked on the door and said, "Guest officer, the supper you want is here." ”

"Come in." Pei Yi sat at the table, looking at the door out of his eyes, with a smile in his eyes.

After the boy entered, he carefully opened the food box and placed the supper one by one.

"Guest officer, you use it slowly, if you need to call me again."

After the boy finished speaking, he turned to leave.

Pei Yi stared at the back of his head, and asked casually: "Why did you change someone?" There are three people in this inn, I've seen them all in the past few days, why do you look a little angry? ”

The young man turned his head and bowed his head and bent down to explain: "Guest officer, the previous junior is the villain's cousin, he just fell in the yard, and it just so happened that I was here, so I came." ”

"Oh? Is it? Pei Yi looked him up and down and found that he was not afraid at all.

So the man took out a copper coin and shot it at the window next to it, and with a thud the window was opened, and the cold wind closed in.

Pei Yi turned his head to look at him: "How come I smell dead people in this snowstorm." ”

"The guest officer is too worried, there are hundreds of thousands of refugees in this Cannes city, and people die every day, if the guest officer doesn't like this location, the villain will go and talk to the shopkeeper and ask him to change the room for you."

The young man still didn't show any fear, and still replied to Pei Yi respectfully.

"Huh." Pei Yi chuckled, took out a fan and lifted the young man's chin, making his eyes meet him.

Only then did he slowly say: "But why do I think that you are more suitable for killing than serving people?" ”

In an instant, the young man's expression collapsed on his face.

Pei Yi opened the window before, firstly, to show that he was strong in martial arts, and secondly, to show that he already knew what was happening outside.

The boy finally knew that he had hit a hard stubble this time.

After taking a deep breath, he showed a sad and helpless expression: "Adult, the villain is also to live, and it is not his intention to kill people, if you want to blame it, you will blame the court for not enough food and houses, and I was also forced." ”

"You weren't forced, since you came to Cannes and killed the first person, I've been paying attention to you, and the reason why Xiao Er, who was killed by you, went to bring you food was also ordered by me."

Pei Yi's eyes did not hide his admiration at all.

Sure enough, in troubled times, there are always some characters appearing.

"Adults have their eyes on me?" The boy suddenly laughed, knowing that he had no worries about his life.

Pei Yi pointed to the opposite position: "You sit down, I have indeed been looking for you for a long time, the poison of the mandala flower, the person who can test perseverance and restraint, is not an ordinary person." ”

"What mandala flowers? Someone poisoned us? Is it the imperial court? Do they want to kill us outright? The boy became nervous again, no wonder he had always felt strange about him.

Pei Yi shook his head: "It's not that the court wants to kill you, but someone, to be precise, a lady, she is saving you with the court, and the mandala is a phantom poison that makes you irritable and irritable, and you can't control your desire to fight and kill." ”

"Ma'am?" The boy immediately thought about that day, and the clear female voice told him that if he had a chance to live, he had to live well!

"It seems that you have already seen her, now that King Rui and King Ning are taking the heir, if you want to get ahead, you can only choose one of the two of them, who will you choose?"

"Whoever becomes the emperor, I will choose whom!" The boy's eyes revealed an unusual ambition.

Pei Yi smiled and took out a piece of paper with two words written on it.

The young man looked down: "Wang Mo? Who's this? ”

Pei Yi smiled and said, "This is your name in the future." ”

"Sounds good, then I'll take it." The boy reached out and grabbed the paper, looking at the two words repeatedly.

In fact, he didn't know many words, but he just knew these two words.

Early the next morning, at the door of the house.

Wen Qingzhu pinched his eyebrows, looking at the gloomy sky outside, not in a good mood.

She searched through all the registers and found no one who had attached the conditions.

He had just taken two steps when Wei Lin suddenly appeared in the corridor in front of him.

He walked over quickly: "Madam, have you been here last night?" ”

"Well, I'm looking for someone." Wen Qingzhu glanced left and right and found that there was no one here.

couldn't help but ask him curiously: "Shouldn't you follow Yuanhan at this time?" ”

Wei Lin immediately explained: "Yesterday, I was counting the supplies, and I was busy until midnight, and then the prince wanted to know about the situation in Jiangnan, so he only left Master Fu over there." ”

"This is also the case, the problem over there in Jiangnan is stuck, and the grain can't be transported, and it won't be long before it happens." Wen Qingzhu rubbed his neck, feeling that he had no strength.

Seeing this, Wei Lin pointed to the front and said, "Madame is too tired, there is a pantry in front of it, which is equipped with pastries, and there should be steamed bread and gruel to be sent over at this time, do you want to go over and eat some?" ”

"Okay." Wen Qingzhu touched his stomach, he was indeed hungry.

I went to the pantry, and there were already quite a few people here. sweet potato

Wen Qingzhu was also surprised to see Ning Ping, who was discussing something with a few people.

"Mrs. Fu!"

Someone saw her and immediately said something.

The crowd turned their heads and bowed.

Wen Qingzhu found out that Liu Jian was actually here.

It's just that he's standing in the innermost part, with his head down, and he doesn't look like he's been noticed.

Ning Ping saw her coming, and hurriedly walked over: "Why is Madam here?" ”

Wen Qingzhu laughed: "Come and check something, what are you discussing?" ”

She looked behind Ning Ping, and saw that the table was full of booklets, and the binding did not look like it was from the local side of Cannes.

"It's a refugee register sent from Xiangzhou and Nancheng." Ning Ping immediately pointed to the other end to explain, and the few people standing at the table immediately stepped out of the way.

Wen Qingzhu walked over, looked at it, and said in surprise: "Xiangzhou and Nancheng received almost 40,000 victims? ”

"Hmmm! This is the news sent by the post station this morning, Xiangzhou is also considered the land of fish and rice, Nancheng belongs to the south of the Yangtze River, at the bottom of Xiangzhou, the two prefects mobilized the local rich businessmen and squires to help slowly accept the victims, according to this situation, the victims who can come to Kangcheng should all come, and the rest are estimated to be still walking towards the south of the Yangtze River. ”

Ning Ping's explanation instantly relieved Wen Qingzhu's heart.

Then she asked again: "Why didn't Xiangzhou and Nancheng move before?" Now I've sent a message. ”

Ning Ping hesitated, pointed to the inner room inside, and said, "Let's go in and talk." ”

"Okay."

Ning Ping turned his head and told the other officials in Kangcheng, and then turned his head and went to the inner room.

After closing the door, Ning Xiu took a secret letter and came out: "This is a letter written to me by the tall man of Xiangzhou, which said that they were not only going to accept the victims, but they found that some of the victims organized them and went all the way to the capital, they did not dare to make a big show for disaster relief. ”

Wen Qingzhu took his letter and looked at it, frowning slightly, why was the prefect of Lingcheng holding the grain?

"This matter did not dare to report to the capital, after all, the prefect of Lingcheng is a member of the Lei family, and now the Lei family has a very high reputation, and they dare not act rashly."

Ning Ping was also very strange in his heart, according to reason, the Lei family was a pure minister, and the people in their family were also honest and capable people.

Why are you stumbling behind now?

"I know, I'll investigate this matter clearly, you go get busy first." Wen Qingzhu nodded, feeling that things had become a little delicate.

As soon as Ning Ping left, Wei Lin took the food and came over: "Let's eat some first." ”

Wen Qingzhu was still very hungry, but after hearing the news from Ning Ping's side, he suddenly lost his appetite.

How did the Lei family get involved?

Could it be that the Lei family is on King Ning's side?

Wen Qingzhu turned his head to look at the steamed porridge in front of him, his stomach was already hungry, so he reached out and picked it up and began to eat.

Wei Lin saw that she had finally calmed down, so he slowly asked, "Madam, from Jinzhou to Cangzhou, and now to Kangcheng, you have always been with Prince Rui, did something happen to him?" ”

Halfway through eating, Wen Qingzhu glanced over: "Is there anything wrong with Yuanhan?" ”

"Not really." Wei Lin immediately explained, "It's just that I think the prince is under too much pressure, although he has your help, but he is also dead, he is also young, is there any problem, you don't know?" ”

Wen Qingzhu chewed slowly, and heard his voice: "Do you think he has changed a lot?" Not quite the same as before? ”

"You can say the same thing." Wei Lin nodded.

Wen Qingzhu put down the steamed buns, and she didn't know what to say about some things.

"He's been through something, but you can rest assured that he'll tell us if he's wrong."

Wei Lin felt that Wen Qingzhu was hiding something, and since she couldn't say it, she didn't ask.

After breakfast, Xue Miaomiao and Xi'er came over.

Xue Miaomiao was going to the hospital and asked her if she wanted to go with her.

Wen Qingzhu turned his head and went to find Wei Lin back, and after talking about the medicinal materials, Wei Lin immediately sent someone to get the materials, and sent Xue Miaomiao over by the way.

As soon as they left, Xi'er glanced around, but didn't see Beidou's figure, so she asked, "Miss, isn't Beidou here?" ”

Wen Qingzhu pointed to it, Xi'er looked up, saw the shadow in the corner of the beam, and instantly thought of what happened according to the sky.

Immediately, she was a little excited, but thinking of Beidou's temperament, she quickly calmed down.

It took a long time to muster up the courage to shout: "Beidou! Come down! I don't blame you! ”

But the figure didn't move, Xi'er shouted two more words, and he still didn't move.

It wasn't until this time that Xi'er finally couldn't help but roar: "You can't get down!" ”

In a flash, Beidou fell in front of the two.

Xi'er was so frightened that she hurriedly took a step back and looked under Beidou's stomach to make sure that nothing had changed, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, I don't blame you, you don't know anything anyway."

Beidou slowly raised his head, glanced at Xi'er, and nodded incessantly.

The two of them finally spoke, and Wen Qingzhu was finally relieved.

At this moment, the voice of the hidden lady came from outside: "Madam! Green Tao is injured! Come and check it out! ”

Wen Qingzhu hurried out and followed Yinniang to Lu Tao's room.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Green Tao sitting up.

When he saw Wen Qingzhu, Lu Tao hurriedly said, "Madam! Go and save Big Brother Yu! ”
