Chapter 401: Urgent



   But when he didn\'t speak, Pei Yi just stared at him silently—that gaze made him very uncomfortable.

  Xiaowei finally couldn\'t hold it anymore, and admitted in embarrassment: "Master Pei has a good memory, and the younger one has indeed met him once."

   This is not clear.

  Pei Yi felt something wrong, and asked, "When did you meet? What\'s your name?"

   Seeing that he really couldn\'t escape, Xiaowei lowered his eyes and said falteringly: "The villain\'s surname is Li, and his name is Hongdao."

  Li Hongdao?

  Pei Yi thought the name sounded familiar, but she really couldn\'t remember where she had heard it before.

   Qisha thought of it first. He said coldly: "You are Li Hongdao, the Zuo Lang general who surrounded Xiao Pei\'s mansion with Xiaowei back then."

  After such a reminder, Pei Yi finally remembered who this person was. She teased with a half-smile: "Where do we not meet each other in life?"

  Li Hongdao was dripping with cold sweat, and tremblingly said: "The villain dare not hang around in front of Mr. Pei. It is the villain\'s blessing to see him. Now the villain is just a school captain. Please, Mr. Pei, hold your hand high and don\'t be as knowledgeable as the villain."

  The school lieutenant is on the sixth rank.

  General Zuo Lang is the top five rank.

   Li Hongdao was downgraded.

  The reason for why he was punished is also very obvious - when he dared to besiege Xiao Pei\'s mansion, the Pei family had to give him some flair, but it was a great favor to demote him by one level.

   "Li Xiaowei is serious." Pei Yi smiled amicably, "I am a person who values ​​peace the most. We all know each other because of fate, so what kind of love and resentment are we talking about?"

  Li Hongdao wiped the cold sweat oozing from his forehead with his hand, and smiled reluctantly: "Master Pei, you have a lot of adults, and the villain is grateful. I really admire it."

  Li Hongdao felt uneasy.

  Ever since his troops surrounded Xiao Pei\'s mansion, everything went wrong for him—not to mention being demoted, he was even assigned to protect Princess Leping.

  This princess is notoriously difficult to serve, and no one in the Imperial Army wants to be assigned to serve her.

  No, I took this hot potato by myself, and I almost got into trouble tonight—if I was a step too late, Princess Leping made a mistake, and as the leader of the guard team this time, he would not even be able to keep his head.

  Li Hongdao felt chills down his spine at the thought of this.

  He didn\'t want to go downhill like this for the rest of his life.

  He did something wrong when the soldiers surrounded Xiao Pei\'s mansion, and now God has sent him to Mr. Pei, is he giving him a chance to admit his mistakes and repent?

  Li Hongdao became more active.

  He thought about what happened tonight, and he quickly came to a conclusion.

  Li Hongdao said solemnly: "Master Pei, I have something important to report."

   Seeing him like this, Pei Yi knew that he wanted to discuss alone, so she said naturally: "It\'s too noisy here, Lieutenant Li and I go sit in the next room—His Royal Highness, you can also join us."

  Huo Yuan is her ally, now that there is urgent news, Pei Yi naturally wants to share and discuss with him.

   "Alright." Huo Yuan nodded calmly, got up and went to the next door together.

  Xiao Junji looked sourly at the back of his sweetheart walking away, and whispered: "Sanlang didn\'t call me either."

  Helian Linyu smiled and said: "People are valuable to have self-knowledge."

   Qisha agreed with the authenticity: "Not bad."

  Xiao Junji panicked immediately.

  However, on the surface he was bitter and jealous, but in his heart he was clear.

  Sanlang has called Huo Yuan away alone now, so he must have something important to discuss. And their Xiao family secretly coveted the Huo family\'s country, and San Lang would definitely not let him discuss with him.

  The room next door.

   "Master Pei, do you dare to ask if the county government has deployed patrols in the suburbs?" Li Hongdao asked cautiously.

  Pei Yi and Huo Yuan looked at each other.

  Both of them realize that this is extremely important news, and they are inevitably excited in their hearts, but they are both calm on the surface.

   "No." Pei Yi replied solemnly and swiftly.

Li Hongdao actually guessed the answer, but he had to ask the question before he could say the following: "Lord Pei, the villain met a group of soldiers besieging Princess Leping in the suburbs tonight. There are hundreds of people, and their actions are quite organized. The villain fought hard to protect the princess from danger..."

  Pei Yi\'s complexion changed slightly.

  She and Huo Yuan have been investigating where the fifth prince is hoarding private soldiers these days, but they have no clue.

   Now that Li Hongdao brought this news directly to the place where the private soldiers were stationed, it can be said that there is nowhere to find it, and it took no effort to get it.

   "Where was Princess Leping attacked tonight?" Pei Yi asked cautiously, "Can you explain more clearly?"

  Li Hongdao recalled the route carefully, and pondered: "The route is very complicated, and the villain can\'t fully remember the road. But Princess Leping\'s Maxima knows the way. If Princess Leping is willing to let the Maxima lead the way, the villain will definitely be able to draw the route map."

   "It\'s not urgent." Huo Yuan said in a deep voice, "You should step back first."

   "Obey." Li Hongdao clasped his fists in salute, and exited respectfully.

   Walking out of the wing room, the night wind blew, and the sweat on Li Hongdao\'s face was cool.

  He just broke out in a cold sweat.

  He knew very well that he was sending big news to Mr. Pei—someone stationed private soldiers in Wanshou County!

  But who would have such courage?

  Li Hongdao didn\'t dare to think deeply.

  He only knows that he is showing his favor to Third Master Pei tonight, and he is willing to rely on the big tree of Third Master Pei to become a member of the third prince\'s group.

  In the wing room.

  Pei Yi sat opposite Huo Yuan, both of them lowered their eyes and said nothing, the atmosphere was very dignified.

  The soldiers besieged Princess Leping, obviously wanting to kill people to silence her, so as not to expose her hiding place.

   But Princess Leping ran away tonight, and the group of private soldiers hiding in the dark must be terrified.

   When a group of soldiers with weapons in their hands panicked, it would be very easy to cause chaos—if they were discovered by the Holy One as private soldiers, they would be dead. In such a desperate situation, it is hard to guarantee that they will not take the risk and simply rebel.

   "Nowadays, the county government is probably not safe." Pei Yi said in a deep voice, "Would you like to return to the capital, Your Highness?"

  Huo Yuan showed a cold look on his face, and said calmly: "I\'m afraid that the capital is going to be chaotic, so it\'s not just the county government that is not safe?"

  If this group of private soldiers really turned against each other, then the capital would be in chaos.

   "I will report to His Majesty what happened tonight, so that His Majesty can make a decision?" Pei Yi asked.

  Huo Yuan asked meaningfully: "How do you plan to write this memorial?"

  Pei Yi said cleanly: "It\'s business, report the truth."

  Huo Yuan slightly pursed the corner of his lower lip, and pointed out with a half-smile: "You want to apologize—tell Your Majesty that Princess Leping was attacked by soldiers in the place under your jurisdiction. It is really your dereliction of duty."

   Pei Yi was enlightened, nodded and said: "I understand."

  His Majesty is suspicious and conceited today.

  Instead of directly analyzing and reporting that someone is raising private soldiers in Wanshou County, it is better to retreat and let His Majesty see for himself that someone is raising private soldiers.
