Chapter 240 Confession, Confession

Huo Yuan and Xun Huan chatted for a while.

The two have reached a strategic alliance.

Huo Yuan's goal has been accomplished, and he doesn't want to stay for a long time, he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Xun Lang likes to rest and recuperate, so I won't bother you, I will leave."

Xun Huan was seriously injured and couldn't get up to salute, so he lay on the bed and said, "Respectfully, Your Highness."

Pei Yi suppressed a smile and glanced at the war-damaged beauty, then turned around and supported Huo Yuan to go out.

She is actually very happy in her heart now, and there is still a little pride that is not as good as outsiders.

According to the original plan, Xun Huan will embark on the road of rebellion, but now that Xun Huan is standing in line with Huo Yuan, it can be regarded as an invisible butterfly losing the future rebellion plot, and there is hope for stability in Dazhou~

Only when the Great Zhou is stable, can the Pei family, which is already an extremely powerful minister, enjoy the greatest benefits.

Pei Yi sent Huo Yuan all the way to the hallway at the Chuihua Gate.

Huo Yuan put on the hood of the black cloak again, and said in a low voice, "Just send it here."

Pei Yi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Very good!

She thought that the dog tyrant was going to hypocritically hint that she would send her back to the palace.

"Your Highness cherishes it." Pei Yi cupped her hands and bid farewell, with a hint of joy in her tone.

But as soon as the words came out of her mouth, Pei Yi remembered something again.

She grabbed Huo Yuan who was about to turn around and leave, walked a few steps to a secluded place, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, you were almost killed in Linhe County by the Fifth Prince. Now..."

She didn't finish her words, but Huo Yuan understood what she wanted to say.

"My fifth younger brother is now deeply loved by my father, and is the most promising candidate for the crown prince."

"If I tell my father now, my fifth brother sent someone to murder me."

"Although the father is furious, he will definitely not impose any substantial and severe punishment on the fifth prince."

"In this way, you won't die from beating a snake, but you will suffer from it instead."

"This good move becomes a waste move."

Huo Yuan's eyes were heavy, and he said with a smile that was not a smile, "You have to be calm in everything, now is not a good time to play chess." When you play chess, your opponent is bound to die without a place to bury him, and there is no way to turn over.

Huo Yuan didn't say the latter sentence, but how could Pei Yi not understand.

She felt that she was still too sweet.

The water in Kyoto is deep, and she still doesn't understand the twists and turns.

If I want to get along easily, I still need to work hard.

"By the way, the memorial to impeach County Magistrate Li was sent to Yushitai a month ago." Huo Yuan said with a serious look on his face, "I heard that my father is very angry, and I think he will make a big move recently. "

Pei Yi felt upset when she heard the words "Magistrate Li", she frowned slightly and said, "The grasshopper will not be able to jump around for a few days after autumn."

Huo Yuan couldn't help pursing his lips and smiling when he saw her swollen little appearance.

He coughed lightly, and said casually: "Sanlang, have you heard that Li Hongdao, the left man of the guard, was almost put on hold for investigation, but later His Majesty leniently allowed him to barely keep his official position, but his salary for half a year was not enough. It's gone, and the promotion position that was supposed to be obtained is also gone."

A person who is an official in the court has been fined half of his annual salary, which is not trivial.

But the most uncomfortable thing is that the opportunity for promotion in the officialdom is fleeting. If you miss this time, you don’t know that it will take a monkey year to get your turn next time.

Li Hongdao had a bad luck this time, and he was probably crying right now.

Pei Yi's heart is naturally happy.

But she felt that this didn't seem like the work of her father and brothers.

If her father and elder brother took action, then Li Hongdao must have lost his life. How could there be such an uncomfortable treatment that he could not die by hanging?

If it was her second brother who made the move, it would be much simpler and rude.

Her second brother will definitely go to the guard of the forbidden army and beat up Li Hongdao in front of all the guards.

As for the follow-up?

Hey, everyone has been beaten, and they have severely hurt their face. What follow-up is needed?

so…

Could this be... Huo Yuan took the initiative to teach Li Hongdao a lesson for her?

Pei Yi thought of this, and couldn't help raising her eyes to look at the man beside her.

At this moment, Huo Yuan coughed dryly seemingly indifferently, but the arrogant expression was obviously waiting for her praise.

Pei Yi couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "I really thank Your Highness this time."

Huo Yuan was very sweet in his heart, but put on a look of indifference on his face, and said with airs: "You are mine now, so I naturally have to protect you."

These words are actually very nasty, it is a typical greasy declaration between young couples.

For a person like Huo Yuan, it is really not easy to say such words.

He himself blushed first, and turned his eyes away in embarrassment.

But these words became in Pei Yi's ears: You are now in the king's camp. It depends on the owner to beat a dog, can I not stand up for you?

Pei Yi deeply felt that Huo Yuan was really interesting in being a leader.

She cupped her hands and saluted: "Your Highness's friendship, Pei will always remember it."

Huo Yuan's cheeks were red, and he was really embarrassed.

Blushing, he glanced at Pei Jiasaburo standing beside him, who would have thought that he would also look up at him.

The moment their eyes met, Huo Yuan was so ashamed that he turned his head away immediately.

He took out a small object from his wide sleeve, handed it to the side without looking back, and said with flushed cheeks, "This is for you."

Pei Yi took it, and it turned out to be a piece of pen mountain—not made of any precious jade, but carved out of wood.

The sculpture is a little pig with a naive appearance, and the sunken back is just right for holding a writing brush.

Pei Yi thought to herself that this is really the style of Huo Little Literary Youth Yuan. She would give her some small literary objects as soon as she made a move. Last time I gave her a Zihao, and this time I gave her a mountain of pens. If I give her a few more times, It is estimated that she will collect the four treasures of the study from Huo Yuan.

Huo Yuan was very shy, but he couldn't wait for the other party's response for a long time, so he tried to make up for it: "I didn't spend much effort on this thing. It's just that I heard that you did well in the township exam, so I just casually ...I went to the antique shop and bought a small gift for you."

Pei Yi didn't think there was any problem with these words, and said with a smile: "Your Highness really has a heart, I like this mountain very much."

Huo Yuan pursed his lips and smiled with his back to Pei Yi.

He slightly turned his head and glanced at the person, but quickly withdrew his gaze, pretending to be dignified and dignified: "I have to go."

Pei Yi stood where she was, slightly lowered her head and cupped her hands, and said, "Respectfully, Your Highness."

Huo Yuan blushed, walked a few steps and then turned around, reminding shyly, "It's very inconvenient for me to find you. But my father is very willing to see you... Take the initiative to get close to me."

ha? ? ?

A series of question marks flashed in Pei Yi's mind.

She raised her head and looked at the prince not far away in a daze. Although she didn't say a word, it was clearly written on her face: Your Highness, what nonsense are you talking about?
