stern wife

Chapter 388

After a while, seeing that Pei Xiaoran put down his hand rubbing his temple, raised his head with a pale face, and his headache seemed to have eased, one of his subordinates couldn't help but said:

"Miss, why don't you listen to His Royal Highness Li Wang's advice, you rest here for a while, we will escort the food and grass to the destination safely, this time, we assure you, we will definitely be more careful, and there will be no accidents .”

"Yes, miss, you should take a rest first, we are exhausted, we cannot explain to His Majesty."

The rest of the people echoed one after another, obviously frightened by Pei Xiaoran.

Pei Xiaoran is a little celebrity in front of the Holy Majesty today, if there is something wrong, they can't get rid of it.

Of course, they would say this not just for fear of being scolded by the Holy Spirit.

Along the way, many people's views on Pei Xiaoran have undergone tremendous changes.

Although the prejudice against women in their hearts made them despise her, at this age, when Pei Xiaoran encountered such a major incident as food and grass being stolen, he didn't cry or make trouble, didn't rush, and successfully found someone who could help, It has to be said that this is a miracle.

Therefore, there is a bit of sincere concern in the words.

Pei Xiaoran closed his eyes forcefully, and when he opened them again, his eyes had regained clarity and firmness.

She smiled slightly and said:

"Thank you for your concern, but I have to go this trip. Don't worry, I won't be brave. I know my own body. If I really can't hold on, I will go to rest. But now, I think I can handle it."

Several subordinates wanted to say something more, but Pei Xiaoran waved his hand to stop them, saying:
"Since the food and grass are ready, it's time for us to leave."

After finishing speaking, she looked at Baili Lieyuan again.

Although he suspects that His Royal Highness Li's concern is only because he wants to win her over, Pei Xiaoran is still very grateful and said:

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but please rest assured, Your Highness, Xiao Ran's life is very hard, and he will not die with the grain and grass."

Baili Lieyuan glanced up and down at her small body, and was skeptical of her words, but seeing her insistence, he had no choice but to compromise:
"Go away, be careful on the road."

Pei Xiaoran smiled, didn't care about his rudeness, nodded, and turned away with his men.

Seeing the backs of the few people leaving, Baili Lieyuan winked at Qin Guan, his confidant at the side.

Qin Guan understood, and immediately followed him quietly.

When we got to the foot of the mountain, we saw carts full of grain, and beside the horses pulling the carts, there were soldiers responsible for protecting the grain.

When those soldiers saw Pei Xiaoran, they saluted one after another. The leader took a few steps forward, cupped his hands and said:
"Your Highness has ordered us to follow Miss Pei and escort the food to the border of Suzaku."

Pei Xiaoran nodded without saying much, and said:
"Then let's go."

"Yes!"

The few people who came turned into a mighty group, but the speed of the journey was still very fast.

After entering the land of Suzaku and completing the handover of food and grass, Pei Xiaoran rushed to Beicheng again.

In the magistrate's yamen in the city.

"I don't know what happened this time, but I sent a little girl with no hair to escort the food and grass. I thought that the little girl would be entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the Holy One. She should have some skills, but in the end... Alas! Women are useless!"

A middle-aged man with a big belly sat on the main seat, patting the table with dissatisfaction.

The staff sitting on both sides seemed to be dissatisfied with the decision of the Holy Majesty, and they all nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, it's fine if it's something else, but can this kind of thing be used as a joke? Although the surplus grain in the warehouse can still last for a few days, if it continues to delay, there will be no grain to distribute to others." The people in the city are gone, when the time comes, I don’t know how many people in the city who died of cold and hunger will appear.”

"It's a crime! It's a crime!"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly, and said again:

"The person I sent to investigate sent back news, saying that the dead girl took people to the fiefdom of King Li in Dayin to borrow food from King Li, huh... What a child who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth, she thought she was Who? What kind of person is His Royal Highness Li Wang of Great Yin? How could she lend her food! In my opinion, that dead girl must be afraid of being blamed by the Holy One, so she led her away!"

The middle-aged man used interrogative sentences, but affirmative sentences, as if he had already concluded that Pei Xiaoran would go to Dayin, and he definitely ran away because of fear.

"My lord is wise! This subordinate also thinks the same way. Even a grown man, if he encounters such a major event that concerns his own life, he will probably be scared to death, let alone a little child who knows nothing about the world?"

An aide immediately answered, his expression full of disdain.

The other also shook his head and sighed:
"If the Holy Majesty finds out about this, she will definitely be doomed. It is expected that she will flee to another country, but it is useless. Even if she escapes to the ends of the earth, the Holy Majesty will send someone to arrest her and apologize Ling Chi. It's just that those in the city The common people, that girl took over the task for her own limelight, she lost her humble life, it is nothing, but what are the common people? It is too wronged to lose her life because of her."

Each of these staff members is gentle and gentle, and looks knowledgeable, but they speak with guns and sticks, every word is like a poisoned knife, and a single mouth can injure people to pieces .

Needless to say, the middle-aged man sitting in the main seat is naturally the magistrate here - Li Chong.

When Li Chongzheng and his staff criticized Pei Xiaoran verbally and in writing, and decided to write a note to Emperor Chixuan, telling him that Pei Xiaoran had absconded in fear of crime, someone outside suddenly reported that Pei Xiaoran had brought food and grass into the city.

Everyone in the room fell silent, Li Chong was full of disbelief, and said angrily:
"How dare she come here?! I want to see what kind of tricks she is trying to play!"

After all, he stood up and walked out aggressively.

Seeing this, the staff also stood up and followed.

Originally, Pei Xiaoran was full of apologies to the magistrate and the people here. After all, it was her negligence that caused the food and grass to be stolen. Therefore, she thought that when she saw the magistrate, she would first apologize to him and the people.

Who knows, after the other party approached, before Pei Xiaoran could speak, he heard the first person sternly shout:
"Come here, take this criminal girl down for me, and put her in a prison for interrogation!"

As soon as the words fell, a yamen servant rushed towards Pei Xiaoran.

Pei Xiaoran swallowed the words of apology full of apology.

Naturally, the soldiers who followed her were not vegetarians. Even if they drew their swords to stop her, the two sides immediately joined hands. For a moment, only the harsh scratching sound of swords clashing could be heard.
