As soon as the people left, the Guan Mansion was in an uproar.

"Sir, is this an old friend of the Master?"

"That's great, that's great!"

"With the protection of the Censorate, our family won't be afraid of being bullied in the future!"

"That's right, those officers and soldiers definitely don't dare to come!"

Listening to these discussions, Guan Ning smiled bitterly. Although Zhao Yi was the Minister of Justice, he also had ways to deal with him.

As for the giant Zhao Tai behind him, Xiao Changhe certainly cannot deal with him, but the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi cannot return to Beijing easily, so there will be no risk for the time being.

"Sister Yao, are you okay? Did you get scared just now?"

Qin Yao smiled, looking very healthy. She whispered, "It's okay. How are you?"

"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious. But you should rest more, it will heal faster." Guan Ning reached out to take a look at the wound under her collarbone.

Snapped!

Qin Yao opened it and said, "You're going to die, there are so many people!"

"Hahaha, sorry, sorry, I forgot." Guan Ning laughed.

Qin Yao rolled her eyes.

At this time, Guan Ning said, "Oh, I have to go out for a while. I will be back later. I will change your medicine and you change mine. How about we switch?"

Qin Yao's face suddenly fell, and her brows knitted tightly together: "Are you crazy? You were just injured and unconscious for a day, and you want to go out again? No way!"

"I don't want you to change the medicine, and you are not allowed to leave!"

"It's such a mess outside, nothing you say will work!"

She was unusually tough and directly grabbed Guan Ning's hand.

Guan Ning was touched: "Don't worry, I'll be out for a while and will be back soon."

"That won't work either. Just stay at home and recuperate! I'll stay with you." Qin Yao said.

"Okay, what is that?" Guan Ning's eyes suddenly flashed.

Qin Yao subconsciously looked back.

whoosh...

Guan Ning ran away, leaving only a voice behind: "Sister Yao, I'll be back soon and stay with you tonight."

The voice was still echoing when the person disappeared.

Qin Yao was left standing there alone, so angry that her chest hurt. She stamped her feet and said, "This guy!"

……

After leaving the house quietly, Guan Ning, accompanied by Sheng Qi, went directly to Taoyuan, the place where he had a secret meeting with Pei Nan last time.

Along the way, he saw many government soldiers arresting people. Although Zhao Tai was not in the capital, his confidants were like crazy, digging deep into the ground to find the murderer.

It can be said that the entire capital city was in a panic.

When Guan Ning arrived at Taoyuan, Pei Nan's guard, the burly man who had clashed with Sheng Qi last time, was already waiting outside.

"Oh, we meet again." Guan Ning said with a smile.

The burly man showed a bit more respect and said with a bow, "Sir, my master is waiting for you."

"Lead the way." Guan Ning said.

"Yes!"

The burly man looked around and made sure that there was no one around before he led anyone in. He was even more cautious than Guan Ning, which made Guan Ning even more curious about who this Pei Nan was. He seemed so shameless.

Taoyuan is romantic. As soon as you enter, you feel like you have arrived in a paradise. The fragrance is fragrant, the breeze is not dry, and you can't feel the heat at all.

A small pavilion somewhere in the lake.

"Brother Guan, long time no see."

"Please." Pei Nan smiled with his hands behind his back. His long hair was tied up in a high ponytail. He looked confident and heroic, with red lips and white teeth. He didn't have the stingy look of a pretty boy at all.

Guan Ning didn't hesitate and sat down directly. Then he stared at the tea and fruit on the stone table and smacked his lips and said, "Tsk tsk tsk."

"The plates used to hold the cakes are all made of official white porcelain. Brother Pei is really fat as hell."

"This plate must be priced sky-high, right?"

"There are actually bayberries, which are a rare commodity."

As he spoke, he grabbed a handful, put it in his arms, and ate and took it.

puff……

Pei Nan immediately broke down and started shaking with laughter.

Sheng Qi stood not far away, his ferocious face suddenly feeling a little embarrassed, thinking that the prince could eat, but he wouldn't grab a handful...

"If Brother Guan likes it, I'll give you three pounds." Pei Nan was extremely generous.

Guan Ning's eyes lit up. You have to know that this is not the future, where bayberries can be bought everywhere. This stuff is not something that ordinary dignitaries can eat.

Very little is grown, and the capital needs food, and it needs to be transported by river, which requires huge manpower and material resources. It is even rarer than gold.

"Really?" He thought of taking it back and letting Qin Yao taste it, to coax her, and then let her take care of him at night.
