Chapter 874 Goodbye Pei An 1+2
On the other side, little Yining, who was taken to the carriage, was asking in surprise.
"Dad, how do you know that Master Cui won't betray my uncle? And what we're saying is true. Won't Master Zhang and the others believe it?"
Lin Yuzan patiently explained, "Of course we believe what we say. After all, three people can make a tiger. However, smart people will think more. Moreover, Lord Cui knows that Pei Yi is acting on orders, so he will definitely think that Pei Yi is trying to lure out the person behind Shangguan Guiqing. He can't rashly expose it and arouse His Majesty's suspicion. That would be a crime that would lead to the extermination of the clan."
"And Lord Cui's reaction just now has already aroused the suspicion of Lord Zhang and the others. They will definitely review the entire matter and will not just focus on the Medicine Valley. Sister Qing didn't just reveal a piece of information to them about Doctor Zhao."
"But uncle, Sister Qing didn't tell you what Doctor Zhao looks like. If you want to find him, you have to ask Sister Qing." Lin Yinhu interrupted.
"Brother Hu, Sister Qing has already reminded us that Doctor Zhao is a cripple, so they don't need to ask Sister Qing anymore." Wang Cheng responded.
"Did Sister Qing say that Doctor Zhao is a cripple?" Lin Yinhu scratched his head in confusion, unable to figure it out.
Seeing this, Wang and Lin couldn't help but shake their heads and then looked at Pei Yi standing aside.
Pei Yi noticed the gaze and tilted his head slightly, a faint smile playing on the corner of his mouth: "I was just curious about when they would discover Shangguan Wenyuan was missing, so I made a special detour to take a look. I didn't expect the two brothers to personally bring people here. I'm really anxious."
Hearing this, the two old men rarely argued with him, but instead looked at the hand that was swollen to the right degree.
Lin Yuzan laughed and said, "We were originally planning to meet Shangguan Guiqing today, but we didn't expect Zhang Liangchuan to come and test us. It was just a coincidence."
Pei Yi's gaze fell on the hand, and he observed everyone's reactions with the corner of his eye. When he saw the two little kids' faces change slightly, he understood something.
He leaned against the wall of the carriage and said slowly, "In that case, the two brothers will go see Shangguan Guiqing, and I will take Qingjie and the others."
The carriage rolled over the bluestone road covered with snow, and soon they arrived at Pei Dafu's small house.
Pei Yi still didn't hug or touch his baby.
Not until the door of Pei Mansion closed did he stop acting, holding little Yining in his arms, and watched the two old men hurried into the secret passage without looking back, and then walked out of the house to meet up with the other two little ones.
Then, he asked firmly, "Qing Jie'er, was it your mother who beat your father?"
Little Yining looked at his fellow villager in surprise, but there was no surprise in his eyes. He nodded honestly, "Dad wanted to take Gun Gun to Hu Ge'er's last night, but Gun Gun was unhappy and started crying. My mom was so distressed that she accidentally touched Dad's hand."
As soon as the words fell, Wang Gungun, who had been a silent background since this morning, immediately put his hands on his waist and defended himself, "Your father can not let me sleep in the main room, but why does he say I am an old man? I am obviously a delicate girl and can sleep with your mother."
Xiao Yining: →_→, you once said that you were my father’s ancestor!
The little girl turned her head away, too lazy to argue with him. Last night she was like a fence-sitter, protecting one and coaxing the other, and she was simply "exhausted".
Wang Gungun looked up at the sky, feeling even more wronged, and his eyes were about to turn red again.
But the next moment, he had no time to be sad.
After listening to the two children's conversation and understanding the whole story, Lin Yinhu looked at Wang Gungun in confusion. "Gungun, why don't you want to sleep with me? I don't snore. Besides, you and I look the same, both men. If you don't believe me, next time you need to pee, call me and we'll compete to see who can pee higher."
Wang Gungun: ...
"If I'm not here, you can call Uncle Pei and compete with him to see who can pee higher!" Lin Yinhuzui kept suggesting.
Wang Gungun's face instantly flushed red, and he pointed at him angrily and cursed, "Brother Hu, you, you, you are so shameless. Be careful that you won't be able to find a wife in the future."
Pei Yi: -_-||, I should have only brought Sister Qing!
Xiao Yining: @_@, Brother Hu is really a killer!
An invisible embarrassment lingered on the four little heads.
Just at this moment, a thin and old laughter came from not far away.
"Hahaha, it's really lively!"
The four children looked in the direction of the sound and saw Pei Yi's master's master, the one-eyed and one-eared Pei An, standing in the yard staring at them.
Little Yining blinked her big eyes and called out sweetly, "Grandpa Pei!"
Pei An snorted coldly: "Princess Le'an calls Pei Dafu "Grandpa Pei" and calls me "Grandpa Pei" as well. That's confusing the generations."
Xiao Yining immediately changed her tone and called out, "Eunuch Pei!"
Pei An: ...
The old eunuch narrowed his only remaining eye, his eyes swept across the four children's faces with a sinister look, and a hint of sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "If I hadn't seen you, I would have thought that I would be imprisoned to death by Pei Dafu. It turns out that this is also a place for fun!"
Pei Yi looked back nonchalantly: "Master, you didn't have many days left to live. My father didn't let you go out because he didn't want to trouble someone to collect your body."
Pei An glared at him with his one eye and cursed, "You little bastard, you're even more annoying than your cheap dad."
After saying that, he turned around and slowly walked to the other side.
Pei Yi looked down and thought for a moment, then followed with the three children, saying with a playful smile: "I haven't seen Master for a long time. I wonder if Master has any other true teachings to pass on to me."
Pei An paused, glanced sideways at the young man who was chasing him, then walked forward again, sneering, "How greedy! You took all the money I had in the palace and still weren't satisfied. You even asked me for more money."
Pei Yi held the child in his arms and took two quick steps, walking side by side with him. He said meaningfully, "The Empress Dowager recognized my cousin as her adopted grandson. Although she didn't give him money directly, she gave him half of the secret guards to protect him."
Little Yining said, "Uncle, my eldest uncle said that those secret guards didn't listen to my father and didn't save him a few days ago. It turns out that money is the key to success."
Pei Yi agreed: "That's true. I wonder if the Queen Mother will be furious to death when she finds out that the secret guards she trained herself can't protect the people she values."
The two little ones sang in unison and successfully made Pei An stop in his tracks.
His cold gaze swept across the two little faces, and then he glanced at the two followers behind him, "It seems that Princess Le'an's ability to coax people is a family tradition. Your father was able to coax the Empress Dowager into giving him the secret guards trained by the late Crown Prince."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yinhu behind him retorted, "That's not true, Eunuch Pei. I heard from the Crown Prince that it was the Empress Dowager who forced my uncle to take over, and she also forced the secret guards on my uncle. But Sister Qing, I think it was the Empress Dowager who gave my uncle a person, but didn't give him the money to support him, so they didn't save him."
"Miss Yu said that if you want the horse to work, you have to feed it fat, otherwise it will get mad."
Little Yining lowered her head and glanced at him. "But my father said that the remaining followers of the former crown prince were wiped out by my uncle. His property is also in my uncle's hands, and the empress dowager is now supported by my uncle."
"Haha, what an ignorant child." Pei An suddenly laughed mockingly and said contemptuously: "What are secret guards? What are death warriors? Even if the master is penniless, they will protect the master."
"They won't protect you unless they betray their master. Even if your father persuades the Queen Mother to give him secret guards, the Queen Mother is not their real master. How can they obey the Queen Mother's orders, and how can they protect your father?"
"I see." Pei Yi nodded in sudden realization. He glanced at the old eunuch with a half-smile: "So the former crown prince is still alive. No wonder he didn't listen to my cousin."
Pei An:......
