The moment the man in brocade clothes turned around, the soldiers felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Mr. Pei...Minister Pei..." The leader of the soldiers crawled on the ground, shivering and thinking that he did not check the almanac before going out today, so how come he ran into this plague god.

Logically speaking, a small soldier patrolling the streets like him should not know Pei Huaizhi. However, when Pei Huaizhi won the top spot in the imperial examination, he was paraded through the streets on horseback, which caused a sensation in the entire Shangjing City.

Now, at such a young age, he has become the only person since the founding of the Wei Dynasty who was promoted to the position of Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue within only half a year of entering the officialdom. He is also the youngest Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. His portrait has been circulated throughout the Shangjing.

Some people regarded his portrait as the Star of Literature, blessing their children to study hard and become the top scholar in the future.

Some young ladies from official families secretly hid the portrait in their boudoirs, admiring it every day, hoping that they could find a handsome and talented man like Pei Huaizhi in the future. They also envied Song Qingcheng, the eldest daughter of the Song family, for her good fortune and being able to marry Pei Huaizhi as she wished.

What's more, Pei Huaizhi's portrait was circulated in romantic places, becoming a comfort to women who were stranded in the world, hoping that there would be a man from a noble family like Pei Huaizhi who could redeem them.

..........

All living things are suffering, the world is like a furnace, and people always seem to need to find some comfort to feel that they are alive.

I am not afraid of the clouds blocking my view, because I am in this mountain. Song Qingcheng of the General's Mansion did not know about this, and neither did Pei Huaizhi.

Then, Pei Huaizhi looked at the soldier kneeling on the ground with a gloomy face. He only glanced at him. Then he raised his head and said, "You want to use your power for personal gain?"

The sound was like the chill of ice; the coldness struck the soldier's head.

"The villain doesn't dare, the villain doesn't dare!"

The soldier said this in panic, but he didn't say it out loud, so how could he know!

Pei Huaizhi was too lazy to think about this little thing and just glanced at his long-time servant Shuqi beside him.

"yes,!"

Shuqi understood what he meant and ordered his men to twist him and kneel on the ground to send him to the Jingzhao government office. Naturally, the Jingzhao prefect would investigate the matter.

That soldier leader had abused his power for personal gain countless times and gained a lot of personal gain. Some people bribed him voluntarily, while others extorted him voluntarily like he did today. After tasting the sweetness, he even kept a prostitute in Xiangchunlou.

Now there is nothing.

It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. After being used to eating delicacies from land and sea, how can one be willing to eat coarse food?

destroyed!

All destroyed!

He is unwilling to accept this, how can he accept this!

Cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing him!

When trapped beasts fight, they often fight to the death, risking their lives!

In a flash, the soldier whose arms were twisted behind his back broke free from the grip, took out the dagger hidden in his boots, and pounced on Pei Huaizhi with his hair in the air.

“You son of a bitch, since you don’t want me to have an easy life, then go to hell too, hahahaha!”

"Sir, be careful!" No one would have thought that a small soldier would be so bold as to suddenly attack and dare to assassinate an official of the imperial court.

The dagger flashed with a cold light and was about to pierce Pei Huaizhi's back.

"court death!"

Pei Huaizhi turned around and didn't even try to block it. He just took the dagger with his hand. With a snapping sound, the soldier's wrist was completely broken. He grabbed the soldier's neck with his other hand.

"Don't know what's good for you!", seems to be hinting at something!

Pei Huaizhi lifted the whole person up.

The man in his hand was held by the forehead with his neck pinched, his entire face was swollen and purple, he could only utter a few broken stammering sounds, his lower body legs moved back and forth, and slowly stopped moving.

His head bent and he died completely.

Pei Huaizhi threw the man to the ground in disgust, and Shuqi took out a handkerchief and handed it to Pei Huaizhi respectfully.

Pei Huaizhi just stepped on his hand!

Shuqi came to a conclusion that his master must have had a quarrel with the young mistress, because only the young mistress could make her master so angry.

Soon the body on the ground was dragged away very quickly. The movements were very swift and the quiet of the dark night returned to Yongxingfang.

The patrolmen in particular were so frightened when they saw their heads cut off that they dared not breathe loudly, for fear that their necks would be broken. After all, he had divided the stolen money several times and his hands were not clean.

But they would never be as stupid as their boss!

If you lose your life, you lose everything. Besides, as long as you have the green mountains, you will never run out of firewood.

Fortunately, they secretly looked at Minister Pei, but he just gave them a cold look without any intention of killing them. The hearts that had risen to their throats finally fell back into their chests, and they thought that their lives were saved.

Kill the chicken to scare the monkey. Now that the chicken is dead, I think the monkey will be at peace.

"Sir! The autumn dew is cold, why don't you go back to the Duke's Mansion first!"

Book Chess says

Pei Huaizhi groaned for a while, and then disappeared into the darkness. The pale moonlight cast a shadow on his face, making him look even more noble and incomparable.

Shuqi watched this scene!

How could the young lady bear to let go of such a horrible face?

"Return to Jinling!"

Pei Huaizhi said finally.

"Ah? But didn't His Majesty allow you three days of rest? This is only the first day!" Shuqi asked in surprise.

In the past, Shuqi never interfered with his decisions. Pei Huaizhi raised his eyelids and looked at him. Seeing his erratic eyes, he was evasive.

"Why don't you want to go back to Jinling!"

Pei Huaizhi looked at his attendant who was obviously looking strange.

Shuqi, a grown man, suddenly became coy for some reason. He kicked the pebbles on the street, which was a little abrupt in Pei Huaizhi's eyes.

"What are you being so shy about?"

Pei Huaizhi was about to mount his horse and ride forward!

Shuqi was anxious, and without thinking twice he grabbed the reins of Pei Huaizhi's horse, "Sir, wait a minute!"

Pei Huaizhi held his horse high and looked down at him condescendingly.

"I promised Qiuyue that we will go to the east of the city to pick hawthorns tomorrow and make canned syrup!"

Hearing this, Pei Huaizhi did not react and frowned, "Qiuyue, who is it?"

"Qiuyue is the personal maidservant of the Third Young Madam!"

Pei Huaizhi was not very clear about the people around Song Qingcheng, and he couldn't remember who this Qiuyue was. "She agreed!"

"Third Young Madam has no objection!"

Shuqi said hurriedly.

"I'm not asking about her, I'm talking about that little maid named Qiuyue!"

"I promise, I promise!"

Shuqi said several words happily, his mouth almost stretched to his ears, his eyes narrowed into slits, he didn't see his master, his face turned very dark.

Isn't this killing people and destroying their hearts?

While his master was unsuccessful in love, he had a girl he liked and she was also interested in him.

Knowing that he had said something wrong, Shuqi immediately fell silent and secretly looked at his master.

Adults are so pitiful!

he thinks!

"It's worthless!"
