After Wearing a Book, I Pampered Five Big Villains

  Chapter 454 Kill one and take one

   Those who become officials are the same as those who go to school, and there is no one else.

  Pei Yi was very depressed, and went down to court again full of complaints this day.

  However, when she reached the gate, she found the butler standing on the threshold waiting for her with a happy face.

   Yo, what kind of happy event is this?

  Pei Yi's dissatisfaction with getting up early every day became much clearer in an instant.

  The butler beamed and said: "My lord, Mr. Qilang is back."

  Now that Pei Yigao has been promoted to a fifth-rank official, people in the mansion no longer address her as "Third Master", but instead call her "Master".

   In fact, it doesn't matter whether it is changed or not. Anyway, the Pei family has always been called "Master", and she doesn't want to be special.

  But the group of people in the house couldn't stand it. They insisted on changing their names one by one, so Pei Yi didn't bother to care about it.

   "Seven kills are back?" Pei Yi thought to herself that this was really good news, and her face suddenly brightened.

  She smiled and asked, "What about others?"

   Seeing her happy, the housekeeper became even happier himself. Ever since the lord of his family was promoted, he had been grimacing every day. Last morning, he seemed to be killing him. The people in his family saw it and felt pain in his heart. Now that Mr. Qilang is with you, adults can be happier, and they are also happier as servants.

  The butler led his lord into the mansion, and said with a smile on his face, "Mr. Qilang has gone to take a bath. When he is ready, I will inform him to come to see the lord."

  Pei Yi was very satisfied, nodded and said: "Then you can directly ask Qisha to come to the study to find me later."

  The butler naturally readily agreed.

  After explaining together, Pei Yi went directly to the study.

  She is really busy right now.

  Since she solved Zhou Jieyu's matter that time, the old emperor has put a lot of emphasis on her.

   But this reuse is really too much for people.

how to say?

   Zhou Jieyu has not yet stopped the matter.

  Although the old emperor was sometimes stupid, but sometimes he was extremely shrewd—he insisted on investigating Zhou Jieyu, firmly believing that there must be someone behind Zhou Jieyu, and the person behind him must not be just the dead fourth prince.

   Judging from the script that Pei Yi currently holds, she has every reason to suspect that the hero Xiao Junlin is behind the scenes.

  However, the reason for her so-called "sufficiency" is only because Xiao Junlin ran around in various ways in the book, and finally became the emperor relying on various connections.

   This so-called reason cannot be called a reason, and naturally it cannot be shown to outsiders.

   Fortunately, the case of Cha Zhou Jieyu did not fall on her, and she was relieved—otherwise, she would have to fight wits and courage with the hero Xiao Junlin, and she might not be able to stop this day.

   But it turns out, she's still too sweet.

  How could the old emperor make it easier for her? Although he didn't entrust Zhou Jieyu's case to her, he entrusted Gu Changze's case to her for trial.

   Now, Pei Yi really has a headache.

   After all, Gu Changze used to be the old emperor's bedside person, and he was quite the old emperor's favorite bedside person.

   People like this are the most difficult to interrogate—because if you hit hard, maybe the old emperor will think of this person next to his pillow again one day, and you, a heavy-handed official, will be doomed.

   But if you act too lightly, the case will not go to trial—the old emperor will think that you are not capable enough, and even wonder if you are on the same side as Gu Changze. Otherwise, why are you covering up for others and handling things so inappropriately?

   Ah, measure...

  Pei Yi suddenly had one head and two big ones.

  She flipped through the files of Gu Changze's interrogation in the past few days.

   Sure enough, nothing.

  Obviously, the group of people working under her, without exception, chose not to be cruel to Gu Changze - the reason is that this once favored gentleman will continue to be favored in the future.

"Why…"

  Pei Yi sighed greatly, thinking that it was too difficult to do things in front of the emperor.

   "Dengdengdengdeng..."

  The sound of knocking on the door suddenly came to mind, interrupting Pei Yi's thoughts.

  Pei Yiben was in deep thought, but this knock on the door made her tremble all over, as if she was frightened.

  She quickly closed the file and put it aside, and said in a deep voice, "Come in."

  The door of the room was gently pushed open, and a slender young man walked in—with picturesque eyebrows and sharp-edged face, he was really handsome.

  But now there are three bloodstains that are neither deep nor shallow, neither long nor short, on this handsome and flawless face.

  Pei Yi's eyes turned cold, and her heart tightened, Dang even got up and walked over.

  She squeezed Qi Sha's chin and looked left and right, frowning and asked: "What's the matter with your face? Who hurt you?"

   Qisha puffed up his cheeks slightly, looking extremely aggrieved and annoyed.

  Seeing him like this, Pei Yi couldn't help but feel even more distressed, and asked softly, "Who bullied you?"

  Qi Sha sat down on the top chair next to him, lowered his head, and complained pitifully and angrily: "They smashed my pot!"

  Pei Yi is baffled, what kind of pot is it?

  It turned out that Qisha escorted Helian Linyu back to Turkic this time, and had always carried a small pot to cook medicine with him. But on the way home, he kept running into assassins, and in the confusion, the small cauldron he was carrying was smashed into pieces.

   "The pot is gone, and the medicine can't be cooked anymore." Qi Sha took out three large medicine bags from his arms, and confessed sadly, "These bags of medicine can't be eaten."

  Pei Yi felt both funny and distressed for a while.

  She glanced at the medicine packs carefully treasured by Qi Sha, and asked with a soft smile, "Why did someone assassinate you? Did those Helian Linyu's political enemies take the opportunity to hurt you to vent their anger?"

   "No." Qi Sha shook his head, his tone was very low, and his expression looked extraordinarily sad.

  Pei Yi saw him like this for the first time, and felt pity for him, and she was more cautious.

  She guided softly: "What's the matter? You are a member of my family, whoever dares to insult you will insult me."

  Qi Sha felt sweet in his heart.

  He didn't intend to hide Saburo at first, so he explained the matter of meeting Chu Mingxiao, the fifth prince of Chu in Turkic, from the beginning to the end.

  Pei Yi couldn't help being inexplicably shocked after hearing what happened, but also very angry.

  She slapped the table so hard that her palms hurt from the shock.

She withdrew her hand resentfully, rubbed it on her thigh secretly, and cursed bitterly: "It's really unreasonable! This Chu Mingxiao has no grievances or enmity with you, but it is so cruel to kill the killer. It's too deceiving!"

   Qisha felt so sweet when he heard that Saburo felt sorry for him. But he still retorted solemnly: "It's not like Chu Mingxiao and I have no grievances. The twins can only kill one and take the other. Naturally, he doesn't want to keep me."

   "You're really smart and confused for a while." Pei Yi's tone dropped, secretly thinking that things were not what Qi Sha thought.
