The genius shone brightly, and Pei Jiaoran had already gotten up to practice swordplay in the yard.

After a cup of tea, at Bi Fei's urging, she slowly went to eat. After eating, she walked slowly to the front yard with a smile on her eyes.

As soon as I walked through the backyard, I heard a loud noise.

After standing at the door for a while, Pei Jiaoran sighed and walked out calmly.

"You guys are having such a lively chat." Pei Jiaoran put his hands behind his hands and looked at the troublemaking sergeants with a smile. "Did you encounter some difficulty and need my government to solve it?"

Seeing her calm look, the man in charge, dressed as a mid-level officer, frowned and cupped his hands at her: "Pei Ming Mansion, it's not that we intend to cause trouble. We just want to ask Ming Mansion for an explanation."

Glancing at the officer who was speaking, Pei Jiaoran raised his eyebrows in a gesture of invitation. He first entered the main hall of the government office, and then ordered the servants to pour tea for everyone.

Listening to the trickling sound of tea being poured into the cup, Pei Jiaoran glanced sideways at a few people but said nothing. He tapped the table with his fingers, as if he was thinking about something.

"Pei Ming Mansion, how long are you going to keep us waiting? We still have things to deal with in the camp." The officer who spoke sounded a little unhappy.

Putting down the tea cup, Pei Jiaoran looked at the few people.

"I know what you are here for. However, I am still drawing up a plan on this matter. When it is completed, I will bring it to General Wang Zhen for review." He brushed the tangled branches on his sleeves with his fingers, and Pei Jiaoran's eyebrows remained gentle. , "Why are you so anxious to come to the county government to cause trouble? Where should I put my government?"

Her voice is not loud, but she is full of momentum. It's as if just raising your hand can change the mood of the situation.

The rioting sergeants looked at each other, and the middle-ranking officer still spoke, "Since Pei Ming's mansion is still making plans, I won't bother you. I just hope you don't forget my achievements, let alone the general. heart of."

He personally escorted them out of the door. After they walked away, Pei Jiaoran's face gradually darkened.

"Ready your horse."

As soon as Li Zuo brought the horse, she immediately flew on it. He rode his horse and ran away. After walking around the city for a long time, he rushed to the Governor's Mansion.

Looking up at the door wall of the Governor's Mansion, Pei Jiaoran looked around, nodded and jumped in. Avoiding the patrolling guards, he groped all the way to find Li Xiujing.

Suddenly hearing the sound of a sharp blade piercing the air behind his ears, Pei Jiaoran immediately paused and turned around to avoid the arrow.

"Pei Jiaoran?"

Listening to the other party's confused voice, Pei Jiaoran curled his lips.

"Li Cishi." Under Li Xiujing's surprised gaze, Pei Jiaoran bowed his hands and saluted, "It is a helpless move to be demoted. I hope you can forgive me."

Looking around, Li Xiujing took her hand. He lowered his voice and said, "Follow me."

Li Xiujing pulled her into the study, glanced at the Mo Dao in his hand, and thought flashed in his eyes.

"I'm here to ask Li what he thinks." Pei Jiaoran didn't shy away from Li Xiujing. He gathered his clothes and sat down. "Not long ago, Wang Shizhao sent someone to the county government to make trouble and ask for an explanation from me. I think Dugu Chen should I know about Jinchang."

"He did it so quickly?"

"It's about your family and your life, how can you be unhappy?" Pei Jiaoran leaned lazily on the table with sarcasm in his eyes.

Seeing Li Xiujing frowning, Pei Jiaoran sighed. Putting his hand on his forehead, he said, "Prince Li, you and Xiaguan are just like grasshoppers on the same rope now. However, Xiaguan is a soft-spoken person and can't be counted. But you are different. The legitimate son of the Guanlong Li family has enough weight."

Li Xiujing's brows almost furrowed when the name of the Guanlong Li family was mentioned.

"What good will it do to me after it's done?"

"At least someone can support you in Jinchang. This is better than being stared at."

After speaking, Pei Jiaoran smiled, revealing a pair of white tiger teeth.

She remembered that Li Xiujing had left the Li family long ago and relied on her own abilities to become the governor of Guazhou.

She once heard her mentor mention that Li Xiujing joined the army in anger after a rift with her father. At the moment, it seems that he really doesn't like anyone mentioning his identity.

"Doesn't Li Shishi want to achieve the position of Protector of Anxi?"

"I can form an alliance with you." Li Xiujing's face softened a lot. He looked at her and said word by word, "Is it just that you have considered the consequences if you fail to seize power?"

Pei Jiaoran smiled meaninglessly and said calmly, "Anyway, it's a dead word. But I will definitely win this game."

Because she is Pei Jiaoran, a proud disciple trained by Wuchang Li, she is confident enough to win this round.

What's more, she didn't believe that God wanted her to die as soon as she was reborn. If so, why let her live another life?

"When are you going to do it?"

"In five days, I have to go back and think about how to plan." After saying that, Pei Jiaoran stood up and said, "At that time, if you can trouble Li, Governor Li can lend me some men."

If you want to suppress the people in the general's mansion, it's not enough to rely on the people in the county government. You also have to rely on the soldiers of the governor's mansion.

"Okay. You can send someone to contact me at any time."

"Then I will resign first."

After leaving the Governor's Mansion, Pei Jiaoran let out a long sigh. She raised her head to look at the sun above her head. The sunlight in the sky was particularly dazzling. She raised her hands to block her eyes. He stood at the door for a moment before riding off.

The official business in the government office continued as usual, but different sergeants would come to make trouble every day, but every time they would be politely invited in by Pei Jiaoran, and then leave with a frustrated look.

It's extremely hot in the public housing today. Jinchang County officials, big and small, were sitting scattered, looking up from time to time to look at Pei Jiaoran who was above them. Why didn't they realize that Pei Mingfu was such a calm person before?

Ever since the sergeants knew that she was going to reduce the number of soldiers and come to the government office every day to cause trouble, she could still sit still. Are you really not afraid that Jiedushi will question her?

Everyone in the government office had their own thoughts, but Pei Jiaoran put down his writing at this time and walked out quietly.

She had only left for a while, and there was no discussion yet. Chu You, who had followed Pei Jiaoran to the General's Mansion, rushed in and looked at the few people with joy on his face.

"Pei Ming's Mansion invites you to dinner! Hurry up, if you get there late, you won't be able to get a seat."

After listening to Chu You's words, everyone looked at each other.

Is it possible that the sun rises from the west today? Pei Mingfu is actually willing to curry favor with them? Could it be that this is the Hongmen Banquet?

The gentlemen looked at each other and nodded. Although they didn't want to go, they had to go.

Seeing Li Zuo leading them to the door of the public kitchen, their expressions changed slightly.

Pooh! I knew Pei Jiaoran wouldn't be so generous.

In the public kitchen, Pei Jiaoran sat in front of the food table, looking at the people filing in with a smile. The food table in front of her can accommodate more than twenty people.

Everyone, look at me again and I look at you. He bravely sat down, only to find two empty seats next to Pei Jiaoran.

Glancing at the empty seat next to him, Pei Jiaoran raised his head to signal the servants to serve the food.

Everyone had already eaten the dishes from the public kitchen a thousand times, so everyone finished their meals quickly as usual. Waiting with bated breath for Pei Jiaoran's next words.

"Have you all eaten enough? Is there anyone else who has nothing to do?" Pei Jiaoran asked with a smile.

Everyone frowned after listening to her words. Why is this so strange to ask?

"Then..." The end of the sound was deliberately prolonged. Pei Jiaoran looked at Chu You beside him and said with a smile: "Close the door."
