stern wife

Chapter 826

Coming to the bustling street market, although Pei Xiaoran had returned to normal, he was still a little absent-minded.

Pei Yutong and Nie Yichen noticed everything, but they asked several times, but they couldn't find anything, so they had to give up.

That's all, it's normal for a girl to grow up and have her own concerns!

Perhaps it was because of the loss of the seven souls because of the three souls, but Pei Xiaoran lost his usual sharpness.

So much so that when a figure came towards her, she didn't even think about avoiding it.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, miss, don't blame, miss."

The other party was a thin man dressed in rough clothes. After the collision, he immediately took a few steps back and apologized repeatedly.

Pei Xiaoran didn't care about that at all, he waved his hand indifferently, and signaled the other party to leave.

The man thanked him a few more times, and then walked away in a hurry.

Nie Xichen suddenly let out a low laugh, and said:
"The dignified little general Pei was stolen by a thief in broad daylight. If it gets out, it will make people laugh out loud."

"what?"

Pei Xiaoran touched his waist subconsciously, and sure enough, his purse had disappeared without anyone noticing it!
Good fellow, it was actually stolen from her head!

Pei Xiaoran returned to his original state in an instant, and ran after him, not forgetting to shout:

"Help me stop the person in front, there will be a lot of rewards!"

Pei Xiaoran does have a lot of money, but that doesn't mean she isn't stingy.

She only wants to spend her money on those poor people who really need it, but she never wants to take advantage of that daring little thief!

The person who bumped into her just now heard her shout and immediately started to run wildly.

Suddenly, the crowd was in chaos, screaming and cursing one after another.

Needless to say, Pei Xiaoran's lightness skills, but because there are too many people here, in order to prevent accidentally hurting the people, he had to slow down.

But even so, he quickly followed the thief's footsteps.

The thief sneaked a look back, and saw the owner's face was right in front of him.

He was startled suddenly, he never expected that this weak looking girl could walk so fast and have such good physical strength!

Seeing that the opponent stretched out his arm, he was about to catch himself——

The thief quickly looked around, and unexpectedly grabbed a woman by the side of the road.

At the same time, he pulled out a dagger from his sleeve, and in the blink of an eye, it touched the woman's fragile throat.

Immediately, he turned around and shouted at Pei Xiaoran out of breath:

"Stop! If I take another step forward, I will kill her!"

As he spoke, he slashed across the woman's neck, revealing a shallow scar, accompanied by thin streaks of blood.

Seeing him draw out his knife, the surrounding people quickly scattered and fled.

It was only at this time that the kidnapped woman came to her senses. Feeling the icy coldness and stinging pain around her neck, she immediately screamed.

"Ah, ah, help me, my lord! Help me, my lord!"

Hearing the shout, a person actually walked over to the stall on the street.

The man was dressed in purple, with a low aura of dignity, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, he was actually an acquaintance.

The man also saw her and nodded slightly to her.

Pei Xiaoran saluted directly and said:
"Xiao Ran has met His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince."

That's right, the young man in purple in front of him is Zhu Tingzhi, the Fourth Prince.

Zhu Tingzhi stepped forward to give her a hand, smiled softly and said:
"Now you are my sister-in-law, so you don't need to be too polite."

Pei Xiaoran coughed lowly, and said a little uncomfortably:

"Okay, okay..."

To be honest, she really didn't want to raise all boats because of Zhu Lianxi.

However, acting to the end, I can only admit it at this time.

"Greetings to Master!"

Suddenly a person jumped out from behind Zhu Tingzhi, saluted Pei Xiaoran with a smile on his face, and timely resolved the slightly awkward atmosphere.

When Pei Xiaoran saw the other party, he also smiled happily, and called out in surprise:
"Sister Han Chan!"

But now is not the time to reminisce, Han Chan immediately said:
"Wait a minute, master, I will rescue Lou Cai first."

As he spoke, he turned around and went to confront the thief.

"You don't need to bother sister Han Chan."

Pei Xiaoran pursed his lips and smiled, but his eyes turned cold in an instant, and with a wave of his sleeves, the few people only heard a slight sound of wind.

Looking back, the thief had already fallen to the ground clutching his neck, his eyes widened, his whole body twitched a few times, and soon he fell silent.

Just now, he took advantage of the conversation between the few people and had already retreated a long distance, thinking of seizing the opportunity, he turned around and ran away.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to act, he was shot through his throat by a small arrow.

Such a long distance, but so precise, and so caught off guard, it's no wonder that the thief would die in peace.

Because until he died, he didn't see who did it and how he didn't.

The woman who was originally held in his arms also collapsed on the ground, pale with fright, covering her face and crying.

The officials patrolling the street finally noticed the movement here, and several people came over with long knives in their hands.

Zhu Tingzhi glanced at them and said:
"I'll go to the yamen with them, you go to the teahouse in front and sit for a while."

In fact, there is no need for His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince to visit this trivial matter.

But after all, Pei Xiaoran killed the person himself, which would cause misunderstandings, so Zhu Tingzhi decided to go for a walk by himself.

Pei Xiaoran immediately understood his kindness, bowed and said:

"Then I would like to thank His Highness the Fourth Prince. Sister Han Chan and I will go to the teahouse ahead to wait for His Highness."

Zhu Tingzhi nodded, and when the officers and soldiers came to lift up the corpse and carried it away, they also followed.

At this moment, Nie Xichen and Pei Yutong finally rushed over.

Pei Xiaoran ran too fast, they chased for a long time before catching up.

As a result, when I came here, I saw that everything was already over.

"Xiaoran, what happened?"

The corpses and bloodstains on the ground have been cleaned up by well-trained officials.

But the woman who was still sitting on the ground crying, and the dignified atmosphere that hadn't dissipated, made Pei Yutong faintly feel a little uneasy.

"It's okay, Second Sister, it's over."

"Is your purse coming back?" Nie Xichen who was beside him also asked.

Pei Xiaoran shook his head.

Just now, he was only focused on saving people, and he had already forgotten about the money bag.

At this time, Pei Xiaoran finally remembered the person he had saved, stepped forward to help him up himself, and asked curiously:

"You... are the Lou Cai that Sister Han Chan mentioned?"

The woman looked at a few people and nodded timidly.

She looks very good-looking, with willow eyebrows and almond eyes, snow-skinned cherry lips, and a very slim figure.

At this time, there are tears in both eyes, like flowers with dew, which is very lovable.
