stern wife

Chapter 827

At this moment, Han Chan suddenly said from the side:
"Xiaoran, Lou Cai is the daughter of the benefactor of the fourth prince's mother and concubine."

This sentence made Pei Xiaoran's heart shudder!
A long time ago, a young woman came to the fourth prince's mansion, claiming that her mother was once a court lady next to the fourth prince's mother and concubine, and even blocked a disaster for the fourth prince's mother and concubine.

Later, her parents passed away, and she had no one to rely on, so she could only come to seek refuge with His Highness the Fourth Prince.

The fourth prince has a deep affection for his mother and concubine. His mother and concubine like purple, so he always wears purple clothes.

Hearing that this girl's mother was kind to her mother and concubine, she naturally took her in.

And she didn't have a lowly status, so she stayed in the mansion directly to let her tend the flowers and plants.

From then on, this woman began to pay respects to the fourth prince on time every day, and greeted him with greetings.

Unexpectedly, now, she has already mixed into the position next to His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince.

But, this woman, this woman...

Pei Xiaoran knew her identity well, as well as her purpose.

It's just that she never found a chance to deal with the other party, and now, the other party was sent to her by herself!

Han Chan's words were undoubtedly reminding her not to trust this woman lightly.

Pei Xiaoran had some calculations in his heart, but his face remained calm, still a little curious, sympathetic, and kindly said:

"So you are the daughter of the benefactor of the Fourth Highness! I have heard sister Han Chan mention you several times.

Seeing him now, he is indeed a kind-hearted person. "

Lou Cai hastily blessed himself and said:
"Don't dare, Lou Cai is just an ordinary girl."

ordinary?
Pei Xiaoran pursed his lips and smiled, but did not refute her, but said:

"That villain just now surprised you, right? Let's go, let's go to the teahouse in front and sit down, have a cup of tea to calm down the shock, and wait for His Royal Highness to come back by the way."

Lou Cai nodded, looking very cute.

A few people went to the tea house together, Xiaoer had a very wink, and led them to the best private room without saying a word.

This place has a wide view, and the hustle and bustle outside can be heard faintly, but it doesn't disturb the conversation of a few people.

Fragrant fragrant tea was delivered, as well as steaming and sweet exquisite snacks and seasonal fruits.

Pei Xiaoran pulled Lou Cai to sit beside him, and said with a smile:
"You don't have to be polite, and you don't have to stick to etiquette. The Fourth Highness and I are good friends, and the Fourth Highness's people are my guests."

Lou Cai shied away for a while, but seeing that she couldn't resist her, she had no choice but to obey.

After settling Lou Cai, Pei Xiaoran went to pull the chills again.

In fact, this one is her "heart, the jewel in the palm".

It's a pity that there are "outsiders" at this time, even if there is a heartfelt heart, it can only be postponed.

Pei Xiaoran greeted everyone to eat and drink, while carefully instructing Xiaoer to invite the doctor.

Lou Cai quickly said:
"No, don't bother, this little injury is fine."

She was scratched on the neck by the thief just now.

But the wound was very shallow, and now it has scabbed over, but it is long and looks a little scary.

Pei Xiaoran insisted:
"You are a member of His Royal Highness, how can I not entertain you well?

Moreover, minor injuries are also injuries, and they should be dealt with, so that I can feel at ease. "

Lou Cai couldn't help but wait for the doctor to come over obediently, and helped her apply some medicine and bandage the wound.

"You treat me like this, so I don't know how to repay you."

Lou Cai looked embarrassed, and said to Pei Xiaoran with a wry smile.

Pei Xiaoran waved his hand, and said indifferently:
"It's just a little thing, it's not about repaying or not repaying.

If it really counts, it is I who have caused you to be troubled. If I hadn't been chasing after you, the thief would not have jumped the wall in a hurry, but almost harmed you. "

Lou Cai shook his head, but he was very sensible, and said in a gentle voice:

"How can I blame you for my injury? If you want to blame it, you can only blame the thief. He has hands and feet and does not do his job properly, but he does some sneaky things.

He thought you looked weak and deceitful, so he singled you out, but he didn't expect to hit an iron plate.

The thief had nothing to do with you, so he had no choice but to change his target. I was just a tool he used to get away.

In other words, if he doesn't steal or rob, wouldn't I be safer? "

Pei Xiaoran was amused by her words, but at the same time secretly admired her.

He really deserves to be the person chosen by Zhu Lianxi, who is well-organized and eloquent.

She is also reasonable, gentle and amiable, no wonder she was able to take down the most unfeminine Fourth Prince in her previous life.

Pei Xiaoran showed admiration, and said:
"What you said makes sense."

The atmosphere of the few people was harmonious, and they didn't seem embarrassed at all by the addition of an 'outsider'.

Soon, Zhu Tingzhi came back.

As soon as he entered, Lou Cai stood up quietly, opened an empty chair for him, and offered him a cup of hot tea, which can be said to have taken care of him meticulously.

Zhu Tingzhi also didn't respond at all, as if she had already gotten used to her service.

Pei Xiaoran frowned slightly, but just kept silent.

"The matter has been dealt with, you can rest assured."

Once seated, Zhu Tingzhi said to Pei Xiaoran.

This matter can be big or small. If it is big, General Pei killed innocent people indiscriminately. If it is small, General Pei will eliminate harm for the people.

In fact, Pei Xiaoran is indeed eliminating harm for the people. After all, if she doesn't kill the thief, the thief will most likely kill Lou Cai.

Such a scourge, why not keep it for the New Year?

It's just that some hypocritical people always like to gossip, which is annoying and ruins other people's reputation.

Zhu Tingzhi's trip this time can be regarded as completely eradicating the opportunities for those who are interested in making fuss.

Although Pei Xiaoran didn't care about other people's opinions, he was sincerely grateful to Zhu Tingzhi, so he solemnly clasped his fists at him and said:
"Thank you."

She remembered this kindness.

Zhu Tingzhi smiled slightly, and politely returned the salute.

He is indifferent, looks cold and unapproachable.

The one who can make him smile is undoubtedly the friend he agrees with from the bottom of his heart.

Several people chatted for a while, Pei Xiaoran suddenly turned his head and asked Lou Cai who had been silent all this time:
"Sister Lou Cai, may I ask, who is your Ling Tang? What happened back then?
Of course, if you mind, just decline me. "

She looked curious, as if she just wanted to gossip about what happened that year.

What's more, she was born with a strange appearance, so asking such an abrupt question made people feel that it was not abrupt at all.

Only then did Lou Cai raise her slightly drooping head, and looked at Pei Xiaoran, her crystal clear eyes were like the surface of water under a still night, with no waves.

She replied very calmly:

"There is nothing to mind, if you want to listen, I will tell you to listen.

My mother's name is Jun Ping, and she is the personal maid of the Fourth Highness's mother and concubine.

Back then, a fire broke out in the empress's palace, and my mother risked her life to rescue the sleeping empress, but she herself was disfigured.
