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

"You are still talking superficially? Then what I just said made you laugh." Old Liu Tou said with a smile.

Listening to Old Liu Tou's words, Pei Jiaoran smiled and said, "You are well-informed and have more experience than me." I have benefited a lot from talking with you today. I have another question to ask you. "

"Girl, you can ask whatever you want." Old Liu Tou waved his hand, "You don't have to be polite to a farmer like me."

After glancing at Li Xiujing, Pei Jiaoran asked about the northwest salt pond. Old Liu Tou was quite cheerful and told her everything she asked. She also took the opportunity to gain a general understanding of the salt industry in the northwest.

"It's getting late, so we won't disturb Uncle Liu." After saying that, Pei Jiaoran glanced at Li Xiujing and stood up, "Thank you both for your hospitality."

Li Xiujing said goodbye.

"Ah? It's raining so heavily. Are you leaving too? Don't think it's causing any trouble to us. Just stay here for one night." Seeing the three of them leaving, Old Liu Tou said hurriedly.

"We have something to deal with at home. Thank you Uncle Liu for your kindness." Li Xiujing apologized.

Old Liu Tou knew what to say when he saw this. He took six steamed buns from the bowl, carefully wrapped them in cloth, and stuffed them into Li Xiujing's hands.

"It's raining and it's hard to walk on the road. I don't know where your home is, so you can take these steamed buns and eat them on the road." Old Liu Tou personally sent the three of them to the door.

The two looked at each other, and Li Xiujing returned the cloth bag.

Under Old Liu Tou's surprised gaze, the three of them jumped on their horses and galloped away into the rain. It wasn't until they had run a few miles that Pei Jiaoran reined up his horse on a high cliff, and the three of them climbed up to have a distant view.

"Servant Pei, I have a question. Why don't you just tell him our identities?" He Liang asked.

"People are afraid of officials. This has been true since ancient times. If I really talk to him as the Minister of Household Affairs, he will only be afraid of me and not dare to tell the truth." Stroking the horse's mane, Pei Jiaoran raised his lips, "Besides, Shence Army It's not a good thing for the people. If you reveal your identity, we might all be kicked out."

After hearing what she said, He Liang smiled and said, "Sure Lang Pei is indeed very resourceful. I didn't expect so much."

Pei Jiaoran raised his lips and smiled, but said nothing. Instead, he turned to look at Li Xiujing.

"Xuan Yin, you should have seen it, right?" Pei Jiaoran said with a smile.

"Yes." Li Xiujing tilted his head to look at her, "I have gained a lot today. Qingjia, you and I will eventually get what we want."

When the three of them returned to Shence Army Town, they happened to meet Yuan Yanchong who had returned. But right now, he was in a state of embarrassment. Not at all as high-spirited as when he came. The light green robe on his body was torn to pieces, and his face was bruised and bruised.

After looking at Yuan Yanchong for a while, Pei Jiaoran frowned, "Did you get beaten up? Are the people in Yanyuan so arrogant?"

"Pei Qingjia, you are plotting against me again!" Yuan Yanchong took a deep breath. Rolling up his sleeves, he rushed over with a fist, "Do you know what those guys in Yanyuan do!"

With cold eyes, Pei Jiaoran took a step back. Cross Arm stopped his movement and twisted his arm again, "You were angry at Yanyuan, what's the point of taking it out on me? Yuan Yanchong, you are so incompetent as a censor."

She didn't know what happened to Yuan Yanchong in Yanyuan, but it was probably not a good thing. It's just that her rank is higher than Yuan Yanchong, if he takes action in Shence Army Town. Even if she and Li Xiujing deliberately covered up and suppressed the matter. But she couldn't guarantee whether this matter would get out, so she could only stop him.

"General, there is a girl outside shouting that she wants to see Yuan Yushi."

A sergeant named Shence reported later.

Yuan Yanchong's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he whispered: "Pei Jiaoran, let me go first, I have something to say to you." Then he said to Li Xiujing: "General Li, please stop that for me first. woman."

Li Xiujing looked at Pei Jiaoran and saw her nodding. He was sent to He Liang to lead the woman aside to take shelter from the rain to avoid getting sick. He went to chase the two of them.

The three of them entered the Chinese army's tent.

Yuan Yanchong sighed: "I fell into the trap of the Yanyuan. They led me into the house, and there was a lady inside." Looking at the two of them, he looked embarrassed, "I thought she was kidnapped by the people from the Yanyuan. I thought I could rescue her. Unexpectedly, just after I talked to her for a few words, she poured me a cup of tea. After drinking the tea, I fainted. I never thought that when I woke up, I was suddenly..."

He didn't continue to say the rest, and slumped on the ground with an annoyed look on his face. He knew that with Pei Jiaoran's intelligence, he could probably guess what happened.

"So this girl is that girl." Pei Jiaoran glanced at Yuan Yanchong who was sitting on the ground, "Then why does she appear here?"

"Because she was the one who rescued me, but I hated her for plotting against me with my concubine, so I threw her on the roadside. What's more, I didn't want to implicate her. Pei Jiaoran, you should know that I have always been involuntarily. , it will not do any good for her to follow me." Yuan Yanchong closed his eyes and sighed.

Xu looked at Yuan Yan and Pei Jiaoran pursed his lips. She already understood what the purpose of this round was. Yuan Yanchong was the censor, and he had the power of supervision. If he himself was involved in accepting bribes, it would mean that the entire Yushitai supervisory committee would be under suspicion, and those who had recommended him would also be implicated.

So she thought this plan was probably Zhang Rang's instruction.

"Then what did she tell you?" Pei Jiaoran asked with a frown.

Although the reason for this matter has been revealed, there are still various details that need to be asked to the parties involved. Right now Yuan Yanchong was worried about his future and couldn't answer her at all. So she had to ask the girl what her difficulties were before she could ask again. What's more, she was supposed to be traveling with Yuan Yanchong, but she didn't show up. If those people in the political hall calculated it, then this matter was probably her handiwork and she was deliberately framed.

"She didn't say anything, she just said that I was a gentleman. She regretted framing me." Yuan Yanchong said in a deep voice.

After thinking for a while, Pei Jiaoran smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go meet her. I think she should be quite interesting."

"Qingjia, be careful." Li Xiujing looked at her and warned her.

"Don't worry. I know what to do."

After taking the umbrella from Li Xiujing, Pei Jiaoran turned around and went out.

Standing in front of the tent and looking. I saw the woman standing under the observation tower with her arms folded, looking out from time to time. Although he looks quite young, there is no fear on his face.

After thinking for a while, Pei Jiaoran held up an umbrella and walked over. He took off his robe and put it on the woman.

"Who are you?" The girl looked up with a puzzled look on her face, and saw that she was wearing a robe again, and said hurriedly: "Girl, please take this clothes back. Can you take me to see Mr. Yuan Lang?"

"Your clothes are wet, aren't you cold?" Pei Jiaoran stopped her movement and buttoned her buttons again. He looked at her and held her lips gently, "Can you tell me what happened?"
