After rebirth, I joined forces with my mortal enemy to seek revenge.

The supervisory censor did not have any bias and read the case files according to the rules. The verdict of Zhang and Wang's case was clearly written, and there was no violation of the law. The Wang family also refused to admit that they had bribed the prison official, but instead praised Pei Jiaoran for enforcing the law impartially.

After asking the county officials and some people in the city, they all said that Pei Jiaoran had not violated any laws during his tenure. On the contrary, he performed his duties conscientiously and was fair and strict. There are many people who are willing to jointly recommend her.

The censor who stayed in Guazhou for several days returned to Chang'an with the evidence collected. Pei and Yuan, who had been locked up in the pushing room for more than half a month, were also released.

Both of them were found not guilty, so they were naturally reinstated.

Looking at the scorching summer sun above his head, Pei Jiaoran turned his head and glanced at Yuan Yanchong, and a sour smell hit his nostrils. She raised her sleeves to cover her mouth and nose in disgust, "Yuan Yanchong, if you don't take a shower, you're going to get salty."

"Both each other." Yuan Yan said coldly.

After watching Yuan Yanchong leave, Pei Jiaoran raised his hand and sniffed his official robe. As expected, he was not much better than Yuan Yanchong. So he went straight back to his home in Chongyifang.

When she came out, it happened that the students of the Imperial College were on holiday. A large group of students gathered together, instantly making several corners near Wubenfang lively. The monks and Taoists in front of the Buddhist temple and Taoist temple in the square frowned due to the noise.

If they didn't each have their own teachings, I would probably have to rush up and argue with the students.

Avoiding the lively crowd, Pei Jiaoran turned into his house from the alley on horseback. He quickly boiled water to take a bath, then went out and walked slowly to the restaurant to find food.

She has been away from Chang'an for many years, and what she misses most is Sophora Leaf Lengtao and Sushan at the intersection of Anyifang Street in Dongshi City.

The Imperial College is on holiday, so the East Market is naturally more lively.

Fortunately, there was still room in the restaurant at the corner of the street, so Pei Jiaoran pushed through the crowd and ran in quickly. I sat down at the only empty seat in the restaurant and ordered a portion of Sophora Leaf Cold Tao, Sushan and Touhua Ci.

While waiting for the doctor to serve the food in the restaurant, Pei Jiaoran looked out.

Suddenly he caught a glimpse of two familiar figures also crowding into the restaurant. Looking at the two of them, Pei Jiaoran raised his eyebrows.

"General Lu." Pei Jiaoran called warmly.

The visitor came over upon hearing the sound and saw that it was Pei Jiaoran. His eyes were filled with joy, "Pei Fuduan, are you being released?"

"I'm not guilty. Why are they locking me up?" Pei Jiaoran looked at Deng Jinwu beside him and said with a smile, "Is Captain Deng's injury better?"

"Much better." Captain Deng waved his hands hurriedly.

That day, he followed Pei Jiaoran to Shence Gong's house to capture Sun Dun. Although he brought him back, he was beaten by Shence. She didn't plan to tell anyone else about this, but she didn't expect that she would observe so carefully, notice that she was injured, and even order someone to bring medicine to treat her injuries.

"There is no room in the restaurant. If you two don't mind, why don't you just stay with me for a while?" Pei Jiaoran smiled slightly.

Although General Lu was from the Jinwu Guards, he did not get close to Jia and Wang's party on weekdays, and he didn't think much about the struggle for power in the center. Naturally, I will not be prejudiced against Pei Jiaoran, but I admire his courage and conversation.

The two of them felt like they had met each other late.

"I have to thank General Lu for what happened last time." Pei Jiaoran frowned and cupped his hands, "If you hadn't helped me lobby the general, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been so easy for me to borrow people from the Jinwu Guard."

"You're welcome, Vice-President Pei. It's our duty to assist the Yushitai to get people. Besides, if it weren't for you, how could we have entered the Shence Palace?" General Lu said with a smile.

After Captain Deng came back, he told him vividly how Pei Jiaoran established his authority in the Shence Army Palace. At that time, he admired Pei Jiaoran even more. She was secretly glad that she was right to lobby the general to lend her someone.

The Jinwu Guards had endured their anger for so many years, and it was really satisfying to finally be able to suppress the arrogance of the Shence Army.

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran smiled and said nothing.

"I am the thirteenth in my family. If Vice-President Pei doesn't mind, you can call me Thirteenth Son. There is no need to use official titles outside the home. I don't know how to call Vice-President Pei?"

"Thirteenth son. My name is Qingjia, and I am the second in the family. Thirteenth son can call me Erniang, or Qingjia." Pei Jiaoran said with a slight smile.

"Pei Erniang."

The two of them were polite and courteous. When they saw Commander Deng next to him, he looked happy and winked at Thirteenth Lu. But Thirteenth Lu was focused on talking to Pei Jiaoran and ignored him at all.

"Girl, your order has come." The doctor pointed to the Sushan in front of him and said, "I poured lady's red as you ordered. You can taste it." Seeing that there were two more people next to him, the doctor smiled hurriedly and spoke. , "What would you two gentlemen want to eat?"

"Just order whatever you want to eat, just think of it as a thank you gift for helping last time." Pei Jiaoran said while eating Su Shan.

The two of them each ordered a portion of Sophora Leaf Leng Tao and Subira.

In the hot summer, eating cold locust leaves is naturally the most comfortable. It can relieve the heat and fill your stomach.

"Pei Erniang is from Jiangnan? I think you seem to like sweets." Lu Shisanlang said with a smile.

Pei Jiaoran had just picked up a piece of rice cake and was about to take a bite when she heard Lu Sanlang ask her. Then he smiled and said, "I was born by the West Lake. I don't really like sweets, I just think sweets are more delicious."

If she remembered correctly, Thirteenth Lu was born in the Lu family of Wu County.

"No wonder. There happen to be a few delicious Huaiyang restaurants in Chang'an. I'll take Erniang to try them some other day?" Lu Shisanlang said in a gentle tone.

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran raised his eyebrows. If she can have a relationship with Jin Wuwei, it will be much easier for her to do things in the future. After frowning and pretending to be thoughtful, she happily agreed.

Originally, Thirteenth Lu planned to invite her to Qujiang, but Jinwu Guard came looking for him. In desperation, he had no choice but to say goodbye to her and leave in a hurry with Captain Deng.

Before dusk came and the square gate was not closed, Pei Jiaoran ran to the West Market for a walk. I found some famous calligraphy from the previous dynasties in the bookstore to copy.

Little did he know that something happened in the palace right now.

Today, I was lucky enough to visit Dajiao Temple in the palace, but I was stabbed by a Taoist priest with a short knife on the way. Fortunately, Zhang Rang sacrificed his life to protect him and managed to escape. Frightened by this, Jinshang became furious and ordered the Ministry of Punishment to investigate the case quickly and strictly. At the same time, he was named Duke Fengxu.

After being ordered to enter the palace in a hurry, Pei Jiaoran and a group of officials who came with him were in front of the Zhuque Gate. Only after the Jinwu Guards had checked the gate registration could they enter the Suzaku Gate. 【Note 1】

While walking on Chengtianmen Street, I could hear all the talk about Jin Shang's assassination. All the offices and offices in the imperial city are brightly lit.

Pei Jiaoran frowned slightly. Today's assassination was beyond her expectation. But she already smelled a conspiracy in it.

When Jinshang was assassinated this time, it seemed reasonable for Zhang Rang to sacrifice his life to protect him. But if you dig deeper, it's obvious that you have ulterior motives.

Wait for her to follow the ministers to the front of Tai Chi Hall. The door has been surrounded by layers of Shence troops. There was a person on the throne in the middle who was protected by them.

Pei Jiaoran's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he lowered his head and walked into the team at the Yushitai.
