Chapter 407: Not small
Chapter 407 There is a lot of movement
the next day.
The county government became a mess.
The servant hurried to the backyard and reported anxiously: "Third Master, something is wrong! Princess Leping is fighting with the rebels!"
Although Pei Yi was mentally prepared in advance, she couldn't hide her shock when she first heard the news.
In her mind, Princess Leping made some noise to hold back the rebels, and Huo Yuan and Qisha could take this opportunity to sneak out of the county government office.
However, Pei Yi really didn't expect Princess Leping to be so good—not only did she make a commotion, but the commotion was quite loud, even to the point of fighting.
But they are at a disadvantage after all, if they make a move, the situation may be a bit difficult to control.
Pei Yi secretly thought about the countermeasures, and at the same time got up immediately and followed the servants to the front yard.
After passing through the hall, she heard the metal buzzing of weapons colliding, as well as the sound of cursing and quarreling.
Pei Yi walked over quickly, and saw Princess Leping fighting a soldier with a soft sword—the soldier was obviously the little rebel leader who asked her for the key to the treasury yesterday.
The little leader of the rebel army obviously has scruples. When fighting, he only defends but does not attack—probably because he is afraid of hurting Princess Leping.
It wasn't just the two of them who were fighting, the guards in charge of protecting Princess Leping also fought with other rebel soldiers, and Mu Guichen, who was Princess Leping's bodyguard, was naturally also fighting.
The scene is really quite chaotic—both sides feel like they are playing a mouse game, and no one really kills them, but they both want to compete.
Pei Yi felt funny for no reason.
She stood still, with her hands behind her back, and said in a cold voice: "Stop!"
It stands to reason that Pei Yi is now just a county magistrate imprisoned, with no power and power, and no one should obey her.
But after yesterday's "Treasury Key Incident", both the rebels and the allies have great affection and admiration for Pei Yi.
As soon as they heard her stop, both sides in the scuffle stopped.
Pei Yi glanced at the crowd coldly. Although she knew what was going on in her heart, she still pretended to be ignorant and asked in a low voice: "What is going on?"
The little leader of the rebel army had a dark face, and glared at Princess Leping bitterly, but he pursed his lips tightly and did not speak. He wanted to explain the reason, but if he, a man, opened his mouth first, it would look like he was bullying Princess Leping, a woman, so he might as well keep silent first.
Princess Leping walked up to Pei Yi quickly, complained angrily and accused: "This princess wants to go out to buy some rouge and gouache, but these rebels actually stop her!"
Pei Yi found it funny when she heard this, especially Princess Leping, who had only fought with others before, so her image was a bit embarrassed, and she felt a little happy when she saw it.
Pei Yi couldn't help finding it even more funny, but she still suppressed the corners of her lips that were about to rise, and forced a serious and sad look—but in order to avoid revealing the fact that she wanted to laugh when she opened her mouth, Pei Yi decided to keep silent with her lips pursed .
Seeing Princess Leping making small reports so arrogantly and willfully, the little leader of the rebel army couldn't bear to retort loudly: "Princess should recognize her current situation! No one in the government office is allowed to leave the house!"
Princess Leping disagrees.
She flicked her sleeves wide, raised her chin, did not look at the rebels, and reprimanded arrogantly: "Why don't you leave the mansion? You have taken all the keys to the treasury. There is nothing for you to take in this county government office." Yes. This princess is not going to fight you all, but is it okay to go out of the house to buy some daily necessities?!"
These words were quite unreasonable, and Pei Yi wanted to laugh again after hearing this. She clenched her fist and put it to her mouth to cover it up, saying to herself that you can't be reasonable when arguing with a woman, otherwise it will become more and more unreasonable.
The little leader of the rebel army felt that Princess Leping was just talking nonsense, but he felt that it was not easy to refute, and felt very aggrieved for a while.
He thought bitterly: This Princess Leping is so arrogant and domineering, he really wants to hack her to death.
But His Royal Highness the fifth passed a secret order, saying that the safety of Princess Leping must be guaranteed, and the princess must not be neglected in the slightest.
But Princess Leping is a person who pushes her boundaries, and has no self-knowledge at all. She is simply a stupid woman who makes trouble for no reason—this kind of person, if you respect her, you are making yourself guilty!
The little leader of the rebel army was so angry that his liver hurt, his face was blacker than the bottom of the pot. In his fury, his head also had a flash of inspiration, and he retorted bitterly: "Whatever the princess wants, we will buy it for you."
"How can you do this?" Princess Leping made up her mind to fight to the end, pointed her sword at the little rebel leader, and retorted plausibly, "This princess has golden branches and jade leaves, food and clothing that you can imagine?! Will this princess be satisfied with the things you bought?! Besides, the rouge powder that this princess uses for a girl’s house is what you rough old men will buy?! This princess has to buy it herself!”
Pei Yi couldn't hold back, and the corners of her mouth rose directly.
She pressed the corners of her mouth together, but her expression management was still a little out of control.
Pei Yi had no choice but to turn her face away in a concealed manner, and secretly condemned herself: Pei Yi, Pei Yi, you still have a little bit of emotional control. To achieve a major event, you should not show your emotions or anger, and you have to continue to practice.
The little leader of the rebel army also turned his head, and retorted angrily: "Our group of elders don't know what you want, the princess, but we can let the girl go and buy the necessary supplies for you, the princess!"
Princess Leping snorted contemptuously, and said sarcastically: "Where can you find a girl to buy for this princess? Do you just go to the street to catch a peasant woman? Or just go to someone's house to catch a Xiaojiabiyu? The things that the princess uses Did you ordinary people figure it out?!"
The little leader of the rebel army was so angry that he blushed and had a thick neck after eating such a meal.
Seeing that the commotion was almost over, Pei Yi coughed dryly, and persuaded her in a nonchalant way: "Princess, today is not the same as before, so please feel wronged for a while. Since the military master said that he can find a girl to buy for you, then you can buy it for you." Let the military master take responsibility."
The little leader of the rebel army felt that Pei Yi was really reasonable, and was very grateful: "Master Pei is very right. If Mr. Pei needs to buy anything, you can also let me handle it together."
Pei Yi said very politely: "I don't need anything for the time being. However, the government offices of the county government are unable to return home in the mansion. The ingredients in the mansion may not be enough, so I have to trouble the military master to buy more."
The little leader of the rebel army felt that the county magistrate Pei was really sympathetic to his subordinates, and he felt a subtle sense of envy in his heart, and his attitude softened a bit. He put the knife back into its sheath, and said earnestly: "Lord Pei, don't worry, there will be no problem with the county government's food."
