stern wife

Chapter 685
The servants froze for a moment, raised their heads in disbelief, and looked at her cautiously.

But Pei Xiaoran was looking at them with a smile, his round eyes filled with gentleness.

The young lady of their family seems...really not angry?
All the servants breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and hurriedly said:

"Yes, yes! You guys will definitely be more cautious in the future, and stay by the young master's side every step of the way, and will never let the young master have any accidents again!"

Pei Xiaoran nodded with a smile, and said:
"Then tell me carefully what happened before the young master's accident."

As soon as he heard this, he knew that Pei Xiaoran wanted to investigate who was the murderer who wanted to murder Pei Junyue.

Since Pei Xiaoran was so tolerant and benevolent, and spared their life, the servants would naturally be grateful, and they knew everything and said everything.

Not long after, Pei Xiaoran understood clearly what happened before Pei Junyue's accident.

In fact, nothing special happened. The tea, snacks, and melons and fruits were all inspected by the servants, and nothing unusual was found.

Pei Xiaoran thought for a moment, and said:
"I see, you go and have a rest, and when Jun Yue comes back, go back to the mansion with him."

At present, the Duke's Mansion has become unsafe, so naturally Pei Xiaoran will not keep his nephew here any longer.

Besides, if something like this happened, Pei Xingshan would not stop her from doing so.

The servants quickly nodded in response, and then retreated together.

After they left, Silkworm closed the doors and windows and asked in a low voice:
"Miss, what did you find?"

She was at the side just now, and she didn't miss a single word from the beginning to the end.

But after listening left and right, I couldn't hear anything wrong.

Pei Xiaoran chuckled and reminded:
"Sister Mulberry Silkworm, do you know under what circumstances, people will definitely go to the toilet?"

Silkworm replied without even thinking:
"Eat crotons!"

As soon as you eat that thing, you will have diarrhea, which can be called an immediate effect.

Pei Xiaoran shook his head and said:

"Didn't those servants just say that the tea, snacks, and melons and fruits have all been carefully inspected, and there are no problems."

"That……"

Silkworm thought for a while, and said:

"It may also be that you drank too much tea."

Pei Xiaoran shook his head again, and said:
"Most children don't like to drink tea, they find it bitter, and when they don't need water, they will never drink more."

"That……"

Seeing that Mulberry Silkworm really couldn't remember, Pei Xiaoran revealed the answer and said:
"Snacks, melons and fruits are what children love to eat. It's not summer yet, so it's a good time to eat watermelon."

Mulberry silkworm slapped his head, and finally figured it out!
Pei Xiaoran continued:
"At that time, Lacrosse was surrounded by my sister-in-law and our people, so it was not easy to attack, but if you want to lure Lacrosse to another place, you must have a reasonable reason.

Didn't the servants say it?The servants in Pei's mansion served several pieces of watermelon that had just been chilled from the well, and if they ate too much of it, it would be easy to go to the toilet. "

This is a common thing, but when it is related to what happened later, it immediately becomes unusual.

That's right, if Pei Junyue hadn't gone to the toilet, the murderer would have no way to start.

Pei Xiaoran lightly tapped the table with her fingertips, and said again:
"The servants in Pei's mansion are all in charge of serving dishes. Although my elder brother is not what he used to be and cannot be offended, he has already been assigned, so he can no longer be regarded as the master of the Duke's mansion.

Therefore, even if the servants in the Duke's Mansion flatter him, they will not get any benefits, and naturally they will not treat his wife and children warmly.

But you see, they not only serve tea, but also various snacks, melons and fruits. If it were the past, the tea alone would be very good.

You said, at that time, the Grand Duke was entertaining in the front and couldn't get away, and the second master was also in the same situation. Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess claimed to be in poor health, so she hid in her yard and did not show up.

And who else can order those servants to warmly entertain my sister-in-law and nephew? "

The atmosphere in the Duke's Mansion is different from other places.

Although since His Royal Highness the eldest princess married in, the servants dare not neglect the main room anymore.

However, the aunts below did not completely lose their status because of this.

After all, as long as the Duke who was born as a concubine in the family is still alive, those aunts will still have a backer, and they can still live in the mansion like their masters.

Now that Her Royal Highness the Princess has cleaned up, there are not many aunts in the mansion.

Silkworm thought for a while, and suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

The person who claimed to have saved the young master... No, is it the aunt in the Duke's mansion?

Moreover, Pei Xiaoran had already mentioned her before, saying that Aunt Zhao had no position or reason to save Pei Junyue at all.

Combined with the antecedents of this matter, it is completely possible to draw a conclusion——

All of this was planned by Aunt Zhao alone!

But what is her purpose?
The servants of the United Nations government kidnapped the young master, but rescued him again. It's a big circle, what's the point?
Seemingly seeing the doubt in Mulberry Silkworm's heart, Pei Xiaoran sneered and said:
"On the surface, it seems that Aunt Zhao is doing useless work, but in fact, she is killing three birds with one stone... No, maybe four birds."

"Three birds with one stone?" Silkworm was even more confused and asked:
"Don't talk about three birds, I can't even think of one bird. What good does she do?"

In fact, if he didn't have the memory of his previous life, even Pei Xiaoran would not have thought of what Aunt Zhao wanted.

Now, she finally figured it out.

Pei Xiaoran sighed lightly, and said:

"She saved Junyue, doesn't that mean we owe her a huge favor?

Eldest brother, third elder brother and I are very close, third elder brother and I are also Junyue's uncle and aunt, so, third elder brother and I will naturally be grateful to her.

Think about it, what is the status of the eldest brother, the third brother and I in the court now? "

Mulberry silkworm was startled, and couldn't hide his astonishment:
"Could it be that Aunt Zhao wants to win over the three of you? To make it easier for her in the future?"

With this incident, in the future, no matter what conditions Aunt Zhao puts forward to Pei Xiaoran, Pei Yuxuan or Pei Runzhi, as long as they are not excessive, these three people will definitely not reject her.

Thinking of this, the silkworm couldn't help clicking its tongue.

This Aunt Zhao's scheming is really serious...

Pei Xiaoran shook his head slowly, and murmured:
"What she wants is far more than a simple convenience..."

She had guessed before that Aunt Zhao was most likely a member of the royal family of the destroyed Xizhao Kingdom.

In this way, Suzaku is her enemy country.

Although Pei Xiaoran and Pei Runzhi don't have many soldiers and horses now, in time, they will definitely be able to improve to a higher level and become like the former Pei Xingshan, a frontier official who holds a lot of power.

Not to mention, her third brother is still the prime minister.

At that time, with the strength of the three of them, it might not be difficult to subvert the entire Suzaku.
