Chapter 377
A little girl enters the mess
Musian nodded solemnly and arranged the arrangements.
If you think about it carefully, Pei Hao's consideration is not only about killing someone, but also about silence. If the news of Pei Chen's resignation in the rebels was passed back to the capital, it would give others an excuse to capture Pei's family. Although Pei Chen himself is a wanted criminal, as long as his surname is Pei, the Pei family will not be neglected.
In addition to arranging the secret guards to track Pei Chen, Mu Si'an began the final work.
Suddenly, a soldier came to report that Qiao Qi had burned himself.
Hu San was surprised.
Musian hurried over.
Hu San followed him and saw that Qiao Qi was living in the yard, and a fire was on fire.
After the investigation, it was Qiao Qi himself setting the fire.
He drove all his servants out of the yard and ignited another fire.
When someone saw the fire, he wanted to save him, but he pushed him out. He was determined to die, and no one could stop him.
In full view of everyone, there was no doubt that he was a showman. Moreover, the fire-breaking yard was just a corner of the mansion, and no one saw Qiao Qi escape.
No one escapes from the sea of fire, he is buried in the sea of fire.
Hu San brought the news back.
Pei Hao didn't say anything after hearing this.
Hu San said in confusion: "Criminal, do you think he will escape to death?"
"It's possible." Pei Hao was also suspicious, "Does everyone really see him in the fire?"
"Yes, many people who put out the fire said they saw it."
"That's quite obvious. If you really die, you won't think too much. Either there is a secret passage in the house, or the substitute is left behind. When the fire is extinguished, you ask Si'an to check it carefully." Pei Hao whispered Hu San and said something.
Hu San patiently wrote down one by one.
Pei Hao wanted to say something, but when he heard the familiar footsteps outside, he paused, turned around and lay down quickly on the cover, and gave a wink at Hu San.
Hu San then took a few steps back, picked up an empty bowl on the table and walked out.
Du Wan came in.
Du Wan was not surprised to see Hu San.
When she is not here, Hu San is taking care of her.
Hu San was afraid that he would wake up Pei Hao, so he saluted Du Wan silently and then retreated silently.
Du Wan couldn't check the situation around her all the time, so she didn't hear the conversation between the master and the servant. But this time, she stepped lightly towards the bed, bent down and approached Pei Hao, staring at his closed eyelashes, black and slender eyelashes, and slightly bent.
If you pay attention, you will find that you will occasionally tremble slightly.
Du Wan knew that he had woken up early and had to pretend to be asleep.
He guessed that he might avoid her from doing business, so he was a little guilty?
So Du Wan poked his fingertips on his face, "Pretend to sleep?"
"..." Pei Hao pretended that he had just woken up and slowly broke away his eyelids, "Wanwan?"
"Ha, I feel guilty?"
Du Wan said with a slight smile, "I can't get up when I'm lying on the bed, so I'm still a little restless? Do you want to be able to get better all the time?"
"No." Pei Hao said sincerely, "I wish I could get better tomorrow, so Wanwan wouldn't have to work so hard. I know... I'm just a drag now. Wanwan, you don't have to pay attention to me, really. My health is recovering well now, and you can just let Hu San and the others take care of me in the future."
Du Wan looked at Pei Hao suspiciously.
Look left and right.
I always feel that the prince is a little weird now, but she can't tell me why she is so weird.
Du Wan was upset that she had forgotten that the patient was most likely to think more, and she couldn't help but touch the tip of her nose with guilt, "Sorry, I'm just kidding, I didn't mean to be a burden to you. I just hope that the official business can be left to Mu Si'an and others. The most important thing for you is to cure the disease first."
Pei Hao smiled a little reluctantly, "Did the princess forget it? I am the commander?"
"Remember, did the rebels surrender?" Du Wan had a headache about this.
Pei Hao lowered his eyes and said, "There are many subsequent things."
"Do you have a good meal with those men?" Du Wan really didn't think the follow-up work needed to be used, "Or what's the matter, I'll help you do it?"
"No." Pei Hao almost collapsed his sick character.
Just kidding, how could she let her leave her?
Pei Hao seemed to be about to sit up, but it was a little difficult. Du Wan used to it and stepped forward to support him, then sat on the head of the bed. Then he leaned on her, and his movements became very proficient, and even she was used to his approach.
"Wanwan, I just heard a message saying that Qiao Qi set fire to himself in the mansion."
"Huh? No wonder I saw black smoke rolling in that direction just now."
"I don't really believe it."
"Do you want me to catch someone?"
"...No!" Pei Hao grinded his teeth and said secretly.
The little girl's brain circuit is always so unavailable.
When talking about Qiao Qi, he wanted the little girl to divert her attention, but he didn't want her to leave her.
Du Wan was a little tired, "There is a master behind Qiao Qi, and it is probably Xie Zhang."
"Be serious?" Pei Hao was very surprised.
"Um."
"Where did Wanwan learn about it?"
"Huang Lian speculated from here." Du Wan casually found a reason, "Isn't it rumored that the boss behind Wangyue Tower is Qiao Qi? Huang Dacai accounts for 30% of Wangyue Tower, and Huang Dacai is a wallet of Xie Zhang. Oh, maybe Huang Lian and Xie Zhang have a friendship."
Pei Hao heard it for a moment of silence.
He didn't know some things? The little girl didn't say them before.
Du Wan inadvertently raised her hand and lifted a strand of hair that fell to her cheeks for him. "The rebels in the southwest border suddenly captured three counties, which should be Xie Zhang's layout. He may have wanted to make another great contribution, thinking that he would be the one in the future this time, and there should be some promotion in the court this time. If there is no accident, 80% of the people who sent troops will be him."
"Yes."
Pei Hao remembered that at that time, half of the former ministers in the court had caused Xie Zhang to send troops.
A new scholar who had just made a contribution to disaster relief, but was not from a military officer. Someone actually submitted a memorial to lead the troops, and most of the officials supported him, but not many people found it strange.
If the emperor hadn't pressed him down suddenly, he would have called him to lead the troops.
This great contribution to quelling the rebellion may have fallen on Xie Zhang for no reason. Who told Qiao Qi to be the one he arranged? He still fought this battle as he said?
Unexpectedly, a little girl came in randomly this time.
Let the situation in the southwest border develop in a strange direction.
Pei Hao didn't realize until today that Xie Zhang was playing a game of chess.
What was originally a hidden thing made the little girl notice it. Should she say Xie Zhang is lucky or unlucky?
If Qiao Qi was really Xie Zhang's man, he might have pretended to die and escape, and someone would have helped him later. Otherwise, important figures like Qiao Qi would be escorted back to Beijing as soon as possible. How will they deal with it depends on the emperor's decision. Although the surrendered person is not killed, he may also be imprisoned for life.
