After the servant delivered the message, he walked away quietly.
After a while, the owner of the Qianzhuang ordered people to deliver meals to the adults in each building.
At the banquet last night, after Pei Zheng left, the injured Lord Qian and Lord Wei were also taken away, and everyone else present was trembling with fear. A wonderful banquet ended in a bad mood.
Shen Huan went to Zhao Litang's place and spent most of the night trying to find a way to reduce Yue Nu's fever. In the end, he only managed to reduce the fever by wiping his face and hands with cold water.
Afterwards, Shen Huan found a room at Zhao Litang's place and went to sleep. She was sure that her little disciple would be taken care of by Pei Zheng and she didn't need to worry about him.
She never thought that she wouldn't need to worry about her little disciple, Pei Zheng took very good care of him, even to his heart's content.
The hot meal was placed on the table, and the little boy hadn't woken up yet, but it was already time for lunch.
Pei Zheng sat on the edge of the bed and pulled the fluffy quilt, revealing the little face underneath. Her red lips were slightly parted and her breathing was light and shallow.
I couldn't help but lower my head and kiss him again. The little guy couldn't breathe anymore, and finally slowly opened his eyes.
"Get up, eat and then go back to sleep."
Shen Shijiu muttered, "Don't eat, sleep."
After saying that, he pulled the quilt over his head again.
Pei Zheng stopped the quilt and said, "Just eat a little, okay?"
Then he directly pulled the person out from under the quilt.
But Shen Shijiu hadn't put on any clothes yet, and his body was smooth and slippery.
Pei Zheng wrapped the person in a quilt, then picked him up and walked to the table and sat down, letting the little person sit on his lap.
Shen Shijiu immediately whimpered, his breathing trembled, and his brows frowned.

Pei Zheng understood instantly, and held him to the side, avoiding that place. Only then did the little guy in his arms breathe more smoothly.
The aroma from the table began to penetrate into Shen Shijiu's nose. He kept his eyes closed, but his stomach was actually empty, as he had consumed all the food from last night.
"Open your mouth."
Shen Shijiu opened his mouth obediently, and then a small piece of tender and fragrant braised pork was stuffed into his mouth.
He swallowed the meat slowly, and his eyes opened.
“I want to eat more”
Pei Zheng fed him some more food, and Shen Shijiu accepted it all and ate it all obediently.
After drinking some of the warm soup, Shen Shijiu sighed with contentment, then smacked his lips and leaned on Pei Zheng without moving, as if he had no bones, and closed his eyes again.
Pei Zheng fed the little guy, ate a little himself, and then walked back to the bed holding the little guy who looked like a silkworm cocoon.
After putting the person back in the bed, Shen Shijiu pushed the quilt up, then turned over and lay down.
Pei Zheng looked at his bulging little butt, his eyes darkened, and he suddenly let down the curtain beside the bed, then lifted the quilt.
Shen Shijiu felt a chill on his butt and he quickly reached out to cover it.
Pei Zheng pulled his hand away, "Don't block it, let me see if you are hurt."
Shen Shijiu was a little more sober now. Although he still felt weak all over, he refused to put his hands down.
"No, don't look"
"Why? Are you shy?"
Pei Zheng curled his lips and smiled, leaned down, and untied his laces with his fingers, "It's not clear from outside, we need to go in and take a look."
No one came out of the three-story building all day.
Only the servants who came to deliver food came in and left in a hurry.
They dared not see or speak of what happened in that room.
It was getting dark again.
Pei Zheng pulled open the curtain and walked out, casually gathered his loose robe, went straight to the table to pour a glass of water and drank it all, then poured another glass and returned to the bed.
"Be good, get up and drool."
**The little guy couldn't even open his eyelids. He opened his mouth, took a few sips from Pei Zheng's hand and didn't want to drink anymore.
Pei Zheng drank the remaining water and threw the cup directly to the ground. Just as he was about to get into bed, there was another knock on the door downstairs.
This time the knock on the door was urgent.
"My lord, my lord! Mr. Shen, Mr. Shen! My lord!"
From the sound it seemed to be the servant beside Pei Zheng. If there was no urgent matter, he would definitely not dare to disturb them.
After knocking for a long time, the door was finally opened.
Pei Zheng, with his clothes half open, stood at the door and looked at the servant coldly. If he couldn't tell him something important, Pei Zheng would immediately make him speechless.
"Sir, something happened! Master Shen, Master Shen was arrested by Master Qian!"
It’s indeed a big deal.
Pei Zheng went to get his robe and put it on, then went to check on the little guy who was still sleeping. He estimated that he would not wake up for a while, which was good, so that he wouldn't have to worry about his master if he heard it.
They came to the hall where the banquet was held yesterday. Many people had already gathered there, but Zhao Litang was not there.
Shen Huan looked a little embarrassed. He was pinned to the ground by several guards, and there were some bloodstains on his clothes.
"Master Shen, please explain where these herbs were picked." said the owner of Qianzhuang.
Shen Huan turned her head away. She had already picked some Shensha grass, intending to develop a new medicine. However, the amount she needed was too large, and she used up all the herbs in a few seconds. She wanted to sneak into the woods to pick some more when it got dark.
Before he even entered the woods, he was discovered by several guards.
Shen Huan ran forward desperately, and the guards behind her chased her desperately.
Finally, Shen Huan fell several times and was dragged to the lobby by several guards.
"Where else could it be picked? Out in the woods."
Master Qian was obviously angry. "That forest is a secret place in my villa. No one is allowed to enter without permission. Master Shen should know that. Why did he break the law knowingly?"
Shen Huan was really confused. "Isn't it just a wild forest? I really don't know what's so precious about it. The herbs in it are not grown by your family. If I didn't tell you, you probably wouldn't know that these are herbs. You might have mistaken them for weeds."
The guards' faces changed. What Shen Huan said was right. They had indeed treated this magical grass as a weed and pulled it out and threw it away.
"Even if it's weeds, they are our Liuyun Villa's weeds! It's not the turn of outsiders to pick them! Since you dare to break into the secret place without permission, you must be dealt with according to the rules of our villa to serve as a warning to others!"
The owner of the Qianzhuang slapped the table, stood up, waved his hand, and the guards were about to drag Shen Huan away.
"Master Qian, please calm down."
A voice came from behind the crowd, and the crowd automatically made way, and Pei Zheng slowly walked to the center.
He reached out and helped Shen Huan up, then smiled at him.
Shen Huan was originally very nervous. After all, she didn't know what these village rules were. But she had to admit that Pei Zheng could sometimes really give people a sense of peace of mind.
No wonder he could bewitched his little disciple to such a degree.
"Master Pei, I know you are familiar with Master Shen, but this matter is indeed related to the dignity of our villa, so please understand, Master Pei."
Pei Zheng said, "I naturally understand Master Qian, but it's just picking a few herbs, so there's no need to use the manor rules."
Pei Zheng had heard about the rules of Liuyun Villa. Just the first item, throwing people into the lake and soaking them for several hours, could cause Shen Huan to lose his life in such a cold day.
“That’s right.”
Shen Huan echoed Pei Zheng in a low voice.
Others present began to talk about it.
There was actually nothing secret about that forest, except that the husband of the owner of the Qianzhuang was buried there.
Moreover, it is said that the owner of the bank killed her husband herself and buried him in the deep woods, so no one was allowed to enter the woods without permission.
Owner Qian pondered for a long while. If Pei Zheng had not appeared, she would have dealt with Shen Huan long ago. Pei Zheng made such a big noise last night, who knew that he would be able to act like nothing happened today.
"Okay, since Lord Pei has said so, I will not pursue the matter of breaking into the secret place."
Shen Huan was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the man sitting there say again.
"But this herb must be returned to my villa."
Shen Huan tightly grasped the thing on her sleeve and quickly turned to look at Pei Zheng. This was the herb that she had spent a lot of effort to get, and she also suffered injuries from the fall. How could she be willing to give it up like this
Pei Zheng noticed Shen Huan's eyes and said, "How about this, Master Qian, name a price, and we will consider this herb as bought by my Prime Minister's Mansion, how about that?"
Asking price
The owner of the Qianzhuang had a flicker in his eyes. Since Pei Zheng could say this, he must want to get this herb no matter what.
She thought about it and held up three fingers.
Shen Huan was amazed. "Three thousand taels! That's enough to buy the whole forest! Master Qian is asking for a lot!"
The owner of the bank shook his head.
Pei Zheng laughed, "It's thirty thousand taels."
Shen Huan's steps staggered, and she almost lost her balance. She pulled Pei Zheng's sleeve and asked tremblingly, "How much?"
The owner of the bank said, "Yes, thirty thousand taels."
Everyone sighed. Thirty thousand taels was a huge sum of money. The gentlemen present might not be able to come up with it even if they spent all their wealth, let alone for three unknown herbs.
The owner of the Qianzhuang deliberately offered such a high price. She wanted to embarrass Pei Zheng, and on the other hand, to vent her brother's anger.
"make a deal."
A voice interrupted the discussion.
Pei Zheng said casually, "The Prime Minister's Mansion will send the silver someday."
Shen Huan couldn't help but pull Pei Zheng and whispered, "Master Pei, I, I know you are not short of money, but, but this is too much, I can't pay it back even if you sell me off."
Pei Zheng said nothing, but just curled the corners of his lips.
Shen Huan was suddenly startled. She suddenly had a bad premonition. Now that she owed Pei Zheng so much money, wouldn't she and her little disciple be at the mercy of Pei Zheng in the future
But at this critical moment, Shen Huan couldn't care about anything else.
There were so many eyes watching here, and the other party was the Prime Minister's Mansion, so the owner of the bank didn't have to worry that Pei Zheng would default on his debt.
But after this incident, everyone had some thoughts in their minds. Pei Zheng was able to take out so much money without blinking an eye. I'm afraid his financial resources have reached a level that no one could imagine.
Shen Huan tightly grasped the priceless Shensha Grass, carefully put it against her chest and covered it, then was about to leave the hall. She hadn't had time to treat the wounds on her body, and now her whole body was burning with pain.
Pei Zheng also followed Shen Huan out of the lobby.
As soon as he stepped out, Shen Huan breathed a sigh of relief, then stomped hard on the snow.
