Views:

The drunkenness drifted into the tip of Pei Qianhao's nose with the air, and he was not stunned, put down the wine in his hand, "Nothing else to say to the king?"

Su Xi'er had a calm and open-minded face, "The servant girl came out to stroll around and saw that the teahouse was very lively. Then she walked in. After that, just like the guy said, the girl is a servant girl."

The corners of Pei Qianhao's mouth raised, and he said confidently, "You did not kill the two Miss Wei Jia. But this king thinks that you are most likely to pretend to be their maid deliberately in order to teach them."

What he said was completely correct, indeed, she only wanted to teach two Miss Wei Jia.

"But, unfortunately, someone wants to plant the blame on you." The voice was low, clearly organized, and the words were not bad.

Su Xi'er was definitely not slapping her horse this time, and she directly replied, "Wang Hao has a delicate mind, even if he hasn't seen it with his own eyes, what he said is exactly the same."

"This time, I believe you, you are not flattering, but from the heart."

Su Xier looked at him suspiciously, he could see this, and wanted to ask him where he could see it.

"If this king doesn't handle this matter, it will be found on your head sooner or later. At that time, you will have a hundred mouths, and you won't be able to tell."

"King Hao, this matter has nothing to do with the servants, no matter how you investigate..."

Before she finished, she was interrupted by Pei Qianhao, "If this king is in charge, will you be nosy? You sneaked out and violated the rules. Secondly, you are the king's servant girl, what's wrong with pretending to be the king's servant girl? , A maid pretending to be Miss Wei Jia."

Su Xi'er didn't know why he was angry, because what she said just now was still pretending to be the maidservant of Miss Wei Jia.

"Say, why did you go to the second floor wing of the tea house? How did they provoke you?" Pei Qianhao suddenly stood up, very close to her, spraying alcohol on her cheeks and nose.

Su Xi'er looked up at him, "The slave and maid said before that the two ladies of the Wei family scolded each other on the street. They were jealous for you. They rushed to say to be Princess Hao."

"Because of saying this, so you punish them?" Pei Qianhao's eyes flashed with interest, and then he raised his hand to pinch her chin.

Su Xi'er suddenly twisted her head and hid, "If you are punished for this, the servants should control them on the street. The servants came to the teahouse and looked around, and found a mysterious man on the second floor. The servants were curious and pretended to be Miss Wei Jiamai. As a servant, I can’t go to the second floor. I can pretend to be a maid, but when I get to the second floor, the mysterious man is gone again. I heard Miss Wei Jia..."

Su Xi'er had a sudden pain in her waist, she didn't say any more, the chill in Pei Qianhao's eyes burst out.

"Curious about a mysterious man?" Pei Qianhao chuckled, his laughter added a hint of sarcasm, "It's really a lie, just like raising a dog. I will beg for you for a little bit of delicious food. Tonight, you see When I arrived at the mysterious man, I was curious to catch up. Tomorrow, when I see a handsome man, will I also catch up?"

Su Xi'er was full of seriousness, "King Hao, you are the most beautiful and standing man in the world. If a slave and maid had such a hobby, she should have hooked you wholeheartedly. Why should you be interested in men who don't know where they come from?"

"This time, the flattery slapped the wrong place." Pei Qianhao's eyes narrowed slightly, and the cold light shot Su Xi'er directly.

Su Xi'er raised her hands and pushed hard against his chest, "The slave and maid broke the rules and slipped out of the post house, letting King Hao deal with it."

Pei Qianhao retreated from her, "This king has listened to this sentence many times. If you really punished you severely, you would be dead."

"So, King Hao's face is cold and warm, and his heart is kind." Su Xier immediately followed.

At this moment, Lord Zhang, the magistrate of the capital of Nanzhao, walked to the gate of the teahouse with the yakuza. Instead of looking inside, he bowed and saluted, "For the magistrate of the capital, see King Hao."

Pei Qianhao sat on the stool again with a calm expression, as if he had expected the county magistrate to come, "Come in."

Mrs. Zhang took a few yamen into the teahouse, "Wang Hao, Hao Zuo has ascertained that two Wei Jia ladies were killed and forced to inhale a kind of powder, which would make people unable to breathe, and finally died of suffocation. Tried After a few buddies, it was discovered that only one person entered the wing, the buddy left in the teahouse by King Hao."

Pei Qianhao waved his hand, "You can find it, you don't need to ask this king about this."

"Hao Wang Yingming." Master Zhang bowed and saluted again, and then ordered his subordinates to go to the back kitchen of the teahouse to find the shopkeeper and buddies.

Pei Qianhao calmly tapped on the tabletop, "Pour the wine."

Su Xier stepped forward, picked up the hip flask, and poured a glass, "King Hao, you have already drunk a lot of wine in the palace. You can't drink anymore." After speaking, she put the hip flask on the other side of the table. superior.

She is not worried about him, but afraid that he will be drunk and tuck in the woods beside the court, she will not forget. That night, he drank too much wine, strayed into the woods, and ran into her.

"Nanzhao wine is very different from Beimin. Qiongyeyulu has a silky floral fragrance. Although the wine in this restaurant is strong, it has the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus." Pei Qianhao did not say to drink or not to drink. But to taste the wine carefully.

Master Zhang thought that Pei Qianhao was talking to him, so he respectfully replied, "There is a county in Nanzhao, called Huaxian. When making wine, nectar will be put in, and all the nectar will be transported from Huaxian. Not to mention other things, In the world, Nan Zhao's wine must be the first."

Pei Qianhao looked at Master Zhang, "This wine is indeed number one in the world."

The voice fell, and the yaman who had gone to the back kitchen to find someone ran out with an anxious expression, "My lord, the subordinates have looked for a circle, no one."

Master Zhang opened his eyes, and then he went to the back kitchen himself. After searching the back kitchen, he went to the backyard, and looked for rooms from room to room, but he still didn't find it.

"It seems that it was the shopkeeper and her buddies who killed Miss Wei Jia. They absconded in fear of crime, and all the servants should be chased immediately."

After finishing the order, Master Zhang turned and bowed to Pei Qianhao, "King Hao, please take your time, go to the official to capture the sinner."

Pei Qianhao waved his hand, "It is important to handle the case, you go quickly."

Master Zhang nodded, then walked out of the teahouse, and all the government officials followed.

Su Xi'er knew that it was impossible for the shopkeeper and her buddies to kill Miss Wei Jia, so why did the two of them run away

"Drink with this king." Pei Qianhao said as he raised his hand to the jug on the table, "take it."

Su Xier shook her head, "King Hao, tonight, you can't drink anymore."

"Come here." Pei Qianhao said coldly, and Su Xi'er didn't respond.

Finally, Pei Qianhao glanced at her and got up to get the hip flask by himself. Halfway down, it was cut off by Su Xi'er.

Su Xi'er held the flask tightly in her hand, "King Hao, you are not allowed to drink tonight."

Who knows if he will be drunk and will do unexpected things at that time, she will be the "unlucky".

"You said that you can't do it?" Pei Qianhao squinted at her, and suddenly raised her right hand, holding her hip flask wrist.
