stern wife

Chapter 391
Pei Yanhe was stunned for a moment, suspecting that he had heard wrongly, he stammered and asked:
"Borrowed? Borrowed food and grass? From whom?"

These towns in the north are all suffering from snow disasters, and it is impossible to borrow food from east to west.

Pei Xiaoran sighed, and said:
"His Royal Highness Prince Li of Great Yin."

Pei Yanhe was startled, subconsciously shouted:

"how is this possible!"

That Prince Li is the prince of Great Yin, how could he lend food to Suzaku? !
When Pei Xiaoran went, he also thought it was impossible, but the other party really borrowed it, and he borrowed a lot.

Pei Xiaoran spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know either.

Pei Yanhe's two eyebrows frowned immediately.

Although he was pampered by the old lady and grew up, Pei Yanhe also understands that there is no such thing as a good thing that falls from the sky.

If there is such a good thing, then the other party definitely has other plans.

What does King Li of Great Yin have in mind for his sister...

Pei Xiaoran looked at the two big dark circles on her fourth brother's face, raised his hand and tugged at his sleeve, and said softly:
"Stop thinking about it, the fourth brother must be tired after traveling around for so many days, go and have a rest first, just leave it to me here."

These days, he only cared about his sister's safety, but Pei Yanhe, the pampered and pampered young master, didn't feel tired.

At this time, after Pei Xiaoran said this, he felt top-heavy, and couldn't help but yawned greatly.

Pei Xiaoran pushed him into the carriage to rest, while he asked people to get off the heavily tied coachmen, threw them in one place, and sent people to guard them strictly.

A few days later, Pei Xiaoran's five masters also came back one after another with cartloads of food and grass.

Pei Xiaoran counted it himself, no more, no less, exactly [-] shi.

It is said that because the road chosen was too difficult to walk, a car turned over into a dry ditch beside the road, and the driver was also thrown unconscious, but Shen Yue, who was sharp-eyed, still found out, and sent someone to take the grain truck and the driver out of the road together. They were pulled up from the ditch and brought back together.

Pei Xiaoran knew that her fourth brother and masters had worked so hard for her, and couldn't help but be extremely moved.

She won't just pay them lip service, though.

Anyway, the future is long, let's wait and see in the future, she will use practical actions to repay their great kindness.

After everyone who came back had rested, Pei Xiaoran began to interrogate the coachmen, who ordered them to do this.

Naturally, the coachmen would not confess Cao Tailai, the lives of their family members are still in Master Cao's hands!

Pei Xiaoran was not in a hurry, he stood in front of those people and said patiently:

"I heard from my fourth brother and my masters that when they caught you, most of you were eating, drinking and having fun, but this time, you don't need to spend money to eat and drink by yourself, so why do you carry so much money with you?" ? Could it be that those silvers are 'bribes' given to you by someone in order to let you do things for him?"

The drivers who were tied hands and feet knelt on the ground, and immediately shook their heads when they heard the words.

After being caught, they were all frightened out of their wits, terrified all day long, feeling that they were not far from death.

But on the day of the interrogation, looking at the little girl standing not far from them, these people's minds became active again.

Yes!Wasn't the reason why he dared to do such a terrible thing at the beginning because he thought Miss Pei was easy to bully? !

What can a young lady from an aristocratic family who has been well-clothed and pampered since childhood do with them?
They've also heard about Pei Xiaoran killing a tiger to save him, but how can killing a tiger be the same as killing a person?
Some people dare to kill animals, but they may not dare to kill people!

And from the beginning of the interrogation until now, Pei Xiaoran only asked a few questions, and did not torture them, maybe it was because he didn't dare.

Yes, that's right, it must be like this!
How dare a little girl who didn't even dare to torture them kill them?

The coachmen rolled their eyes one by one, and instantly saw the hope of life.

Anyway, it's still far away from Zhijing, as long as Pei Xiaoran doesn't kill them immediately, they still have a chance!
Mr. Cao will definitely not refuse to save them. As long as they don't confess to Mr. Cao, Mr. Cao will definitely find a way to rescue them on the way back!
A group of people were secretly excited, and they looked at Pei Xiaoran with a bit of contempt.

Little brats are brats, fortunately they were still so scared, but they didn't think about it, it wasn't Pei Xiaoran who caught them, but the people around her.

But although those people have abilities, they don't have power in their hands. Even if those people want to kill them, as long as Pei Xiaoran doesn't speak, they can't do it.

Heh, the Holy Majesty really made a mistake this time, and actually entrusted such a big matter to a brat.

However, they would like to thank His Majesty for his 'missing eyes' this time, if it wasn't for Pei Xiaoran who was sent by His Majesty, maybe they wouldn't get this 'windfall', let alone save their own lives.

Little did they know that their backer, Mr. Cao, had already been arrested by this brat in front of him.

Shen Yue and Yang Hao saw the changes in the minds of the coachmen, and they all squinted their eyes at the same time, looking at their precious apprentices.

If it was the former Pei Xiaoran, maybe they would really worry about whether she would let this group of people who deserved to be killed be let go because of her soft heart.

but now……

Now, even those who have been with her every day can't see clearly what this little apprentice is thinking.

Seeing the coachmen shaking their heads together, Pei Xiaoran chuckled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

She said slowly:

"Although I am young, I am not a fool. If no one instigates you, you don't have the guts to smuggle food and grass. You must know who that person is. I will give you one last chance. If you refuse to tell the truth , then... I will not be polite."

Hearing this, the coachmen almost laughed out loud.

You're welcome?
How could she be 'you're welcome' to them?
The coachmen still shook their heads one after another, and this time their expressions were much calmer than before.

Seeing this, Pei Xiaoran nodded, and said:
"I have given you a chance, but you don't cherish it yourself."

As she spoke, she raised a small hand and stretched it out in front of Third Master Xie Yi.

Xie Yi understood, and immediately took out his saber and handed it to her.

Pei Xiaoran took the long sword, looked at the somewhat dazed coachman, and said:

"I heard that if a person turns bad, his heart will turn black. Since you all said that you were not bribed, then the person who led you to steal food and grass must be among you Now, since none of you are willing to tell me who that person is, I can only find it myself."
