After rebirth, I joined forces with my mortal enemy to seek revenge.
Chapter 577 Solving the Puzzle
When we walked out of Dajiao Temple, the rain gradually became lighter. The two of them simply walked onto the verandah, eliminating the need for the waiter to hold an umbrella. The prince waved his hand to indicate that the accompanying chamberlain did not need to follow them.
"I wonder what you did?" The prince tilted his head and asked in a warm voice.
"White phosphorus becomes natural when it comes into contact with air. Dajiao Guan chose the strongest agarwood today, and the fragrance can be diffused to cover up the smell of white phosphorus." Pei Jiaoran smiled, "This Blue Immortal is still quite capable. I just asked him to think of a reasonable idea. The method, I never thought it would be this method.”
Hearing this, the prince looked at her and frowned, "You didn't mention him?"
"How can I instruct others at will if I don't know this way?" Pei Jiaoran lowered his eyes and used the opportunity to cover up the ambiguity in his eyes.
Of course she had some suggestions, and she was the one who instructed the Blue Immortal to do the hexagrams this time. Otherwise, how could Lan Xianren alone be able to cooperate with her so smoothly to complete the plan. It's just that Lan Xianren is a person trusted by the emperor, and he is also responsible for refining elixirs for the emperor. As a foreign minister, I can't let others notice that she has leverage over the Blue Immortal.
"But today is also strange. There are thunderstorms, but they all match the hexagrams. Why did the Tubo astrologer change his mind?" The prince squinted and looked at Pei Jiaoran thoughtfully, "Is it possible? It’s what the hexagram shows.”
"Most of the astrological deduction techniques in various countries come from the Dayan method. Tubo especially believes in this way, and it is normal for him to believe in hexagrams. Anyway, once he believes it, Ranqian will also believe it." Pei Jiaoran turned to look outside the corridor. , chuckled lightly, "Besides... Lan Xianren's talisman will make Ran Qian believe it even more."
Hearing the bitterness in Pei Jiaoran's words, the prince sneered in his throat, "If this happens, Pei Qing will be the first to take credit." Patting her on the shoulder, the prince continued: "The servants of the Sifang Pavilion are gambling. How do you plan to deal with this matter?"
Upon hearing this, Pei Jiaoran paused and turned to look at the eunuchs and Jinwu guards who had fallen a long distance behind him. She suddenly understood the reason why the prince did not let these people follow.
After thinking for a moment, Pei Jiaoran said: "I have already interrogated Li Run in advance. He wanted to survive, so I simply asked for a high bribe from him."
After the word bribe fell, the prince's sneer sounded in his ears.
"I cherish my feathers, so why would I ask for an ordinary bribe?" Pei Jiaoran curled his lips and smiled, "The general can only afford a seventh-grade green robe. If you want to live a good life, you will inevitably do something that violates the rules and regulations. One or two. It's easy to get mixed up in it. I have investigated and found that Li Run's life is not poor. Although the Li family has a great career, he is not the eldest son, so he has to rely on himself. "
She learned from Li Xiujing that Li Run, the fifth member of the Li family, had made no achievements in these years. The title of Tongshi Sheren was obtained through the influence of the Li family and Li Sikong's reputation. The Li family is now supported by Li Sikong, and Li Xiujing's deviance also makes people covet him. Unexpectedly, this person bumped into his hand again.
Through this person, he can not only plan more, but also vent his anger for Li Xiujing.
"So what bribe did you ask for?" the prince asked doubtfully.
Pei Jiaoran smiled and said, "It's nothing. It's just a list of those in the palace who have participated in the cultivation, including the maids and maids from various places, as well as the assistants and assistants of various departments and offices."
There was sudden silence.
Before the prince could speak, Pei Jiaoran handed a piece of paper to the prince.
"Your Highness, please take a look. This thing is both a handle and a sharp blade. It all depends on how you plan to use it." Pei Jiaoran spoke softly.
The paper was folded into a square shape.
However, the prince just glanced at it and did not take it.
"Pei Qing only needs to know what's going on, there's no need to leave it alone." The prince raised his head and looked forward, "But Li Run is also named Li after all. You..."
Hearing the teasing tone in the prince's words, Pei Jiaoran raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "His surname is Li, and my surname is not Li. Besides, when it comes to official matters and feelings, I have always made a clear distinction between them."
She knew that her confidant was far more rational and cold-hearted than she appeared on the outside. The prince smiled and said nothing more. The king and his ministers were speechless all the way until they reached the gate of the East Palace.
"Pei Qing, I know that your salary is quite generous. But occasionally you have to leave some money for others." The prince stood with his hands behind his hands and said meaningfully: "The eldest grandson Jigui has been very poor recently."
Pei Jiaoran raised his eyes when he heard the meaning behind the prince's words. After looking at him for a while, he suddenly smiled calmly.
"When will His Highness's homework be sent to Zhongshu's other provinces? I am still waiting to report back to His Majesty." Pei Jiaoran said with cupped hands.
The prince looked slightly stiff, snorted softly and walked away.
Watching the prince leave, Pei Jiaoran raised his eyes and curled his lips.
Walking back to the house in Chongyifang at dusk, the courtyard was even busier than before.
Frowning at Li Xiujing, Bi Fei and Zhou Mancao, Pei Jiaoran took a deep breath and asked, "Why are you all here?"
"There is nothing going on today, so we came back early." Zhou Mancao handed over the tea and said with a smile: "I happened to meet General Li on the way. He said he had something to do with you and it was raining heavily outside, so we asked him to come in and wait. The girl wanted to "What to eat, Bi Fei and I will go shopping on the street."
"Sushan on East Street, as well as the Sophora Leaf Lengtao at the entrance of the alley and the Jade Dew Rice Balls sold next to his house." Pei Jiaoran wiped the rain off his face with a cloth handkerchief and glanced sideways at Li Xiujing, "How about that? Go buy two jars of wine and celebrate Bi Fei's birthday today."
Zhou Mancao agreed readily, pulled Bi Fei and turned around to leave.
As soon as the two left, Pei Jiaoran also turned around and went back into the house. As soon as they entered, Li Xiujing also followed.
The deep ultraviolet clothes separated from the body, revealing the red and silver-woven half arms underneath.
"Why don't you wait for me at home and come here?" Pei Jiaoran untied his bun and hairpin and let his long hair fall down. Wiping her hair with a towel.
With a warm palm on the back of her hand, Li Xiujing picked up the towel and wiped the water stains on her hair.
"It's been a long time." Li Xiujing slowed down his movements and said warmly.
"I thought you were here to plead for your fifth uncle." Pei Jiaoran smiled on his lips.
The top of his head was rubbed with his fingertips, and the pressure and warmth that came from it were just right. At this time, the thenar eminence of his palm just touched her cheek, and the side of his thumb was pressed against her earlobe. He sat down, resting his chin on her shoulder, and looked up at the mirror.
"No way. I told you not to worry about me." Li Xiujing chuckled in his throat, "It's just that my fifth aunt has been blocking me all day long. She asked me to find a way to intercede for my fifth uncle. Wubenfang I don’t know why her house is known to me, so I just came here.”
The faint candlelight was reflected in the mirror, and the two figures in the mirror became blurred. Pei Jiaoran blinked.
"Tongshi Sheren is quite wealthy. He can actually spend money to inquire about you." Pei Jiaoran seemed to have remembered something, and his eyebrows were filled with smiles, "Don't Erlang have enough money to stay with you?"
