Chapter 708 He Was Superficial

It’s a lie to say that she doesn’t resent Chen Susu, but that was all in the past. Ever since she left Yanbei and reconciled with Huo Jun, Chen felt like she was reborn. The shackles on her body were gone, and she felt relaxed and open-minded. , when I think about Yan Bei's incident, I feel ridiculous, pitiful or even sad.

She was just surprised by the deaths of Chen Susu and Huo Fei, but that was all, but she saw what happened behind them.

"Pei Zhan did it? What does this have to do with Pei Zhan?"

Mrs. Chen remembered that Pei Zhan was a handsome young man who treated her. He had no enmity with the Huo family. Why did he kill Chen Susu and Huo Fei?
Moreover, Huo Jun finally told Huo Xing to be careful about Pei Zhan and asked him to avenge Huo Fei. How shameful was this?

Of course Huo Xing knew that Pei Zhan was not simple, and Huo Jun would not talk nonsense with red lips and white teeth, so of course Pei Zhan had something to do with this matter.

But what he was concerned about was, why did Huo Jun want him to take revenge?
Is it...

Huo Xing breathed a sigh of relief, Pei Zhan was going back to the capital.

He didn't simply come back secretly, it was probably the decree of the capital that called him back.

After thinking about this, Huo Xing stood up and said, "Mom, I'm going out for a while."

Chen didn't ask why.

Huo Xing went out. He had been staying at the Inspectorate recently, busy with various things, and had neglected matters in the capital. Since Pei Zhan was coming back, something terrible must have happened in the capital.

When Huo Xing first arrived, many people didn't get along with him, so they didn't talk to him.

He asked a colleague who had a fairly good relationship with him. The colleague drank wine and said, "You should know that the prince is in charge of the country recently, right?"

Huo Xing nodded: "I know."

The colleague said: "Your Majesty is ill. Not long ago, the imperial physician in the palace tried his best to cure him. Your Majesty is awake, but his body is still not good."

He lowered his voice and said: "Pei Yong died three years ago, and Qin Zhong died a year ago. The remaining people in the palace are either young and inexperienced or have mediocre qualifications. There are few who are good at medicine. The Queen Mother made a Datong has a bad temper, and it seems that someone finally suggested that he should bring back the descendants of the Pei family."

Huo Xing raised his eyebrows and calmly poured a glass of wine for his colleague: "From the Pei family?"

The colleague said: "Brother Huo is also from Yanbei. You should know that the Pei family has been exiled to Yanbei. I didn't expect that the second brother is still alive. If nothing else, with the Pei family's medical skills, it is not an exaggeration to say that they can bring the dead back to life." , when Pei Yong was here, he was the one taking care of His Majesty’s body..."

Because the emperor is ill and the palace doctors are incompetent, they want to call Pei Zhan back?

Huo Xing squinted his eyes, feeling something was wrong.

The colleague shook his head and said: "What a pity."

Huo Xing said: "What on earth did the Pei family commit?"

Huo Xing only knew a little bit about this matter.The colleague looked around and then lowered his voice and said: "The charge at that time was corruption. It was said that when Pei Yong was an imperial doctor, he embezzled money from the imperial hospital. Not only that, but he also used inferior good ones in exchange for good ones in the palace. Medicine, because of this, almost killed the Eighth Prince. The Eighth Prince was young and in poor health, so he almost lost his life after using those shoddy medicines. The Emperor was so angry that he had people investigate, and he pulled out the carrot and took it out. Mu, the more we investigated, the more we investigated, but the Pei family did not plead guilty, and later the father and son died in the prison for unknown reasons. They said they committed suicide out of fear of crime, and the evidence of the Pei family's crime was conclusive, so they were sentenced to exile."

Colleagues lamented: "I always feel that they are too old and too old. Once Pei Yong died, Qin Zhong had no one to support him and it was time to stand out. But after a few years of being happy, he also died. Now the Qin family only has a useless Qin Zhao. It’s no longer a climate.”

Huo Xing nodded, this was similar to what he heard.However, he always felt that this matter was wrong. Pei Yong was a miracle doctor. In addition to his salary from Tai Hospital, he also treated other dignitaries in Beijing. The medical fees should be quite large. Why would he embezzle money from Mo Tai Hospital?
The colleague said: "We don't know about this, but who would object to a lot of money? It is said that Mr. Pei was unlucky. On his wedding night, he died miserably in prison without even entering the bridal chamber. I don't know what happened to the girl from the Tao family later. That’s it.”

The colleague drank a few more glasses of wine and talked more: "That girl used to be good friends with the second prince. I heard that the two families were planning to get married, but I don't know why it was Miss Tao San who married the second prince. The Tao family The second girl married into the Pei family, it’s true that we are the same person but have different fates. If it hadn’t been for this, then the second girl would be the second prince’s concubine now.”

Huo Xing thought of Tao Zhen. He still had a different feeling when he heard her name from someone else.

"Do you know the second young master of the Pei family?" Huo Xing asked.

The colleague laughed twice: "He is incomparable to the eldest son. The eldest son has already entered the Imperial Hospital. If nothing happens, he will take over Pei Yong's errands from now on. The real young and promising young man He is talented, but the second young master is different. He is only famous because he has a good-looking face, so why should he be an oiran and a big man? What kind of good name is that?"

Huo Xing asked calmly: "How are his medical skills?"

The colleague shook his head and burped: "I have never heard that he has medical skills."

After separating from his colleagues, Huo Xing still sat still.

It is not difficult to find out what his colleagues said. There is no need for him to lie. Huo Xing has seen Pei Zhan's medical skills. Among other things, he treated Zhou Zhizhi's legs back then and his medical skills were excellent. It was because of the situation that he threatened him.

But after that, Pei Zhan rarely showed off his medical skills outside unless he had to.

The only few times he did it were when he disguised himself as Wen Xingzhi...

And no one or very few people in the capital knew that he had medical skills, so who recommended him to the emperor?
That guy had been hiding behind Tao Zhen, looking incompetent and even a bit useless. Huo Xing didn't take him seriously for this reason.

But now he was very doubtful, was he seeing the real Pei Zhan?
Or is he just pretending?
In order to make everyone think so, that he was incompetent and useless, and that he was weak and dependent on women, he hid behind him and slowly cultivated his own power. No one knew what he did when he took the opportunity.Because everyone's focus seems to be on Tao Zhen.

Huo Xing frowned!

Pei Zhan, who was worried about Huo Xing, had just received the imperial edict. The emperor asked him to enter the capital immediately. As for what he was going to do in the capital, the edict did not say, but judging from the attitude of the people coming to the capital, it was similar to what he had guessed before.

Ning Hao patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Take care along the way."

Pei Zhan and Ning Hao were not familiar with each other, but Pei Zhan still smiled back and said, "Thank you very much."

Ning Hao looked at his back with a dark and unclear look in his eyes.

You are really capable. You can deliver a letter to the emperor and ask the emperor to issue an order. You are really capable!
He had the same view as Huo Xing. Before this, he had never taken Pei Zhan seriously. Now it seems that he is superficial.
