Chapter 741 We Are Still Friends
Liu Quan was the one who took the lead in harming the Pei family back then, and Pei Zhan kept an eye on him. He had a good relationship with the Tao family, and everyone in the capital had more or less interests.

The relationship between the Tao family and Liu Quan is very close. If Pei Zhan touches him, it is equivalent to cutting off an arm of the Tao family. The Tao family cannot just sit idly by.

Mrs. Tao had been ill all winter. On the day Pei Zhan accompanied Tao Zhen back home, they went to see the old lady. The reason why the old lady became ill was not because she was angry with Tao Zhen, but because of Pei Zhan. Pei Zhan did a lot. It was secret and no one found out. When Mrs. Tao became seriously ill, the Tao family would come to him. At that time, he only made one request to Tao Qian, which was to stand by and watch the Liu family.

Tao Qian readily agreed. Liu Quan's appetite had become bigger and bigger in the past two years, and Tao Qian had long wanted to get rid of him.

But Liu Quan really fell, and Tao Qian would inevitably feel sad that the rabbit died and the fox died.

Tao Zhen looked at Pei Zhan's swollen face and frowned: "Did Huo Xing hit you?"

Pei Zhan nodded: "Well..."

Tao Zhen took out the medicine and asked, "Okay, why did Huo Xingxing hit you?"

"Yes, why?" Pei Zhan looked at Tao Zhen and said, "He thought I was using you and deliberately let you buy Liu Quan's land."

Tao Zhen paused as she applied the medicine. The land was introduced by Wei Ziqian. In normal times, according to her cautious temperament, Tao Zhen would not buy this kind of land with obvious problems and future troubles, but Wei Ziqian is Pei Zhan's friend, and Pei Zhan also agreed with her to buy it, so she bought it.

"Then are you using me?" Tao Zhen asked.

Seemingly casually, Pei Zhan noticed that her fingers were trembling slightly.

Pei Zhan: "Of course not."

Tao Zhen: "It's okay if it's not."

Pei Zhan: "Do you trust me so much?"

Tao Zhen said half-jokingly: "Aren't you my pillow? If I don't trust you, who else can I trust?"

This time, Pei Zhan didn't answer.

After Tao Zhen applied the medicine, Pei Zhan said, "What if I really take advantage of you?"

Tao Zhen didn't say anything either.

Huo Xing didn't want to take Tao Zhen's piece of land, otherwise there would be endless troubles. Tao Zhen didn't want it at first, but after what happened, it wasn't just a loss of money. Tao Zhen took a sip of tea. Then he said: "It is not my character to suffer the consequences of being dumb. I am bound to win this land."

Huo Xing looked at her in surprise.

Tao Zhen said: "It was reasonable for me to take this piece of land. When I was handling the matter, it was not Liu Quan who came forward, and the land was not in his name, but in the name of his son. There was no problem with my procedures. "

Huo Xing took the things she provided and looked at them, nodded and said: "Indeed, Liu Quan may have thought that such a day would come, so he put the land in the hands of his son. His son has nothing to do with him." and participation.”

Liu Quan had two sons, one was a domineering and lawless son, and the other son was the one who got the land. He was an illegitimate son and had no involvement in Liu Quan's affairs. When the emperor condemned him, he did not punish anyone who had nothing to do with him. The illegitimate child was quickly released.

Tao Zhen was familiar with Dashun's laws. If Niu Guishan hadn't been so tough on him by not following the rules, she would have been able to escape unscathed.

As for whether Pei Zhan was using her, Tao Zhen had his own judgment. This land had no meaning to Pei Zhan. What was Pei Zhan using her to buy land for?Even if he wanted to buy it, he could tell himself.

Tao Zhen still didn't believe it.

Huo Xing wanted to say something else, but Tao Zhen said: "Master Huo, don't hit him again."

Huo Xing was stunned and looked up at Tao Zhen.

Tao Zhen said seriously: "I know you are doing it for my own good, but this is between me and Pei Zhan."

She took out a box and pushed it in front of Huo Xing: "This is what Mr. Huo put here before. Return it to its original owner."

Huo Xing opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. He was not a scheming person like Pei Zhan, nor was he very direct like Yan Baiqi. He kept whatever he wanted to say in his heart, even if he said it, the way he expressed it was also Very tactful.He finally took this step. Tao Zhen understood but refused.

Huo Xing looked at the box on the table, which contained a family heirloom jade pendant that his mother had given him, saying it would be passed on to his future daughter-in-law.

Obviously Tao Zhen doesn't want it.

Huo Xing felt depressed. He didn't know where this emotion came from and how it would dissipate. He had never encountered such a situation before. He just felt empty in his heart and had an indescribable discomfort.

Tao Zhen left, and she finally told Huo Xing that they would still be friends in the future, of course, if Huo Xing was willing.

If you don't want to, then you are a stranger.

stranger……

Huo Xing clutched his chest. Why did it hurt so much? Was he sick?

Huo Xing felt he needed to see a doctor.

Liu Yun felt that his young master was actually a very simple person. For example, right now, he was silent and silent, and finally said he wanted to drink.

Liu Yun thought about it and took him to a restaurant. Of course, they thought it was a restaurant unilaterally. Then they found that the people drinking were all men. It was not unusual that they were all men, but the strangest thing was that, The sissy beside Tao Zhen was also there.

God knows, Ji Xiang was more shocked than them when he saw them.

Why didn't he know that Huo Xing was also a crook?

Liu Yun felt that the surroundings were getting weirder and weirder, while Huo Xing was in a dull mood. He didn't care what was going on around him and only drank one cup after another.

Liuyun didn't dare to take a sip. He felt countless eyes around him cast their gazes on them.

Ji Xiang was drinking with a few people and looked at them from time to time, but he didn't come over to say hello.

Huo Xing was about to get drunk. At this time, there was a sudden noise on the second floor. A man fell from the upstairs and hit Huo Xing and his friends on their table.

Everyone was shocked by this incident and couldn't recover. Jixiang was afraid of harming himself, so he took two steps back and curiously looked at the person who fell down. After seeing the person's face clearly, Jixiang's eyes widened in shock. , contributed a piece of national quintessence.

"Stop and grab him."

With a shout, the man at the table ran away.

The people who came down from upstairs chased outside.

Liuyun didn't want to get involved in these things, so he also supported Huo Xing and walked out.

Huo Xing was very drunk. Liu Yun put him on the carriage. He looked back at the messy restaurant and finally realized something was wrong.

He had goosebumps all over his body and quickly drove away with the carriage.

Jixiang followed him out, but the man who escaped was missing. He went back to the restaurant and inquired about it and found out that the man had not been captured, so he hurried home.

Tao Zhen hasn't come back yet, and Pei Zhan is squatting in the yard tinkering with herbs.

"Pei Zhan, guess who I just saw?" Ji Xiang asked hurriedly.

Pei Zhan didn't even raise his head: "Who?"

He didn't look very interested.
