Chapter 184 Dedicated

When Xu Qingyan saw Pei Jingchuan specifically asked for the girl in green, she couldn't help but wonder: [Why did my husband accept it? Could it be that he really likes that girl? The girl in green is indeed pretty. My husband wouldn't really be...]

Pei Jingchuan felt helpless after hearing this. Didn't she just hope to choose one? Why did she start to doubt again after I chose?

Pei Jingchuan didn't know that women's hearts were unpredictable, and he couldn't help but get nervous. He immediately turned sideways to look at Xu Qingyan, and explained with a strong desire to survive: "I'm afraid you won't be used to it. After all, it's better to have a woman serving you."

Xu Qingyan suddenly understood what was going on when she heard this, and a smile appeared on her face. It turned out that my husband was thinking about me! Hehe... My husband is really considerate. I didn't bring Danyan and Ziyan with me this time. Before, when I was on the road, I was served by servants. Some things were indeed a bit inconvenient. It's okay to bring this girl in green clothes to take care of me. When the time comes, I will think of a way to turn her over. This way, she will be useful and can also help my husband and others. It can be said to be a two-birds-with-one-stone method! 】

Although the King of Qin was puzzled as to why Pei Jingchuan suddenly agreed to accept the governor's men, he believed in Pei Jingchuan and thought that he must have other intentions. Therefore, he did not ask any more questions.

Pei Jingyuan, who was standing by, was not only surprised, but also gloated. He couldn't help but say, "I thought that big brother was very loyal to big sister-in-law and would never accept other women in his life. I didn't expect that big brother just didn't like the one before."

As he said this, he glanced at Xu Qingyan. Didn't they show their affection in front of others before? Didn't the people in the Duke's Mansion praise the harmony between the eldest brother and his wife? Now, he was slapped in the face so quickly. Pei Jingchuan even found an excuse, saying that he accepted the beauty to serve Xu Qingyan. Who would believe such a stupid reason? As long as he accepted this beauty today, he believed that he would be able to climb into Pei Jingchuan's bed one day. Haha! He really wanted to wait for that day to watch the show.

But what he didn't expect was that instead of waiting to see the show, he was met with Xu Qingyan's ridicule.

Xu Qingyan said sarcastically, "Speaking of loyalty, the young master is indeed not as good as you. After all, you took two concubines in just half a year, and they are both sisters. This is what loyalty is! You chose the same sister exclusively."

After hearing this, Pei Jingyuan's smile suddenly disappeared, and he became slightly gloomy. He gritted his teeth and said, "At least I don't take women casually outside. This is good for both of us. I'm sure that Big Brother's backyard in the future will be no less than mine."

After saying that, he turned around and left without waiting for Xu Qingyan to reply. He knew that if he stayed any longer, he would either be ridiculed by Xu Qingyan or scolded by his eldest brother.

Pei Jingchuan looked at Pei Jingyuan's back as he left, a dark light flashed through his eyes. His half brother, for now, would not be killed for the sake of his father, but when he was doomed to fail, he would never let him go. At that time, he would let his father know what kind of person Pei Jingyuan was.

Xu Qingyan did not reveal that she was a woman. After taking Yuyao back to the room, she was still dressed in men's clothes. Yuyao followed Xu Qingyan and the others all the way to the guest room.

On the way, she found that Pei Jingchuan's attitude was cold and he didn't pay much attention to her, but Xu Qingyan was easier to approach.

So, she could only focus her attention on Xu Qingyan. That young master was handsome, but he was still too hard to approach. The one next to him was petite and lacked some masculine charm, but his face was good-looking and easier to approach. This was already the best guest she had served for the governor. The ones she had received before were all ugly. This time, she was really lucky.

"Sir, let me pour you a cup of tea!" After entering the room, as soon as Xu Qingyan and the others sat down, Yu Yao enthusiastically poured tea to please Xu Qingyan.

Just as she was passing tea to Xu Qingyan with affection, her neck was suddenly grabbed by someone. She widened her eyes in horror and met Pei Jingchuan's cold eyes. He stuffed something into her mouth and squeezed it hard, so Yu Yao was forced to swallow it.

"Ahem... Sir, what are you doing?" Yu Yao collapsed to the ground, looking at Xu Qingyan and Pei Jingchuan in horror.

Although she didn't know what she had just been fed, she subconsciously knew that it was definitely not something good.

"What you just took is the Seven-Hearted Begonia. You have to take the antidote every seven days to survive. During this period, as long as you listen to us honestly, I will spare your life." Pei Jingchuan said coldly.

Yu Yao was shocked when she heard this. She didn't want to die, so she hurriedly said, "Master, please forgive me! I have no choice! I will definitely listen to you. Please give me the antidote."

Xu Qingyan was a little surprised to see Pei Jingchuan controlling Yuyao so easily with poison, but she still asked Yuyao, "You answer first. I have a few questions. Do you know where the governor hid the stolen money? Do you have any evidence of the bad things the governor has done over the years?"

Yu Yao was shocked when she heard this. She did have the evidence against the governor! But how did they know it, and why did they suspect her? Over the years, she was valued by the governor because of her outstanding beauty. She secretly followed the governor to check where he hid the stolen money, and she also knew that he had colluded with the bandits in Yuzhou. Originally, she thought that these things could be used to control the governor so that he would not abandon her. She even thought that in the future, when the governor's family succeeded in their great cause, she would squeeze out the governor's wife and succeed in taking over.

"If you don't know, then you don't need the antidote." Xu Qingyan said coldly when she saw Yu Yao was stunned.

After hearing this, Yu Yao quickly responded, "I know! I know everything! As long as you don't kill me, I will listen to you, Master."

Suddenly, Yuyao was afraid of Xu Qingyan and the others. They had only just arrived in Yuzhou, how could they know everything? They even knew that the governor was colluding with the bandits? It seemed that the governor was doomed this time! She had to save her life.

"Well, tell us everything you know now." Xu Qingyan said coldly.

Therefore, Yuyao had no choice but to tell everything she knew. Xu Qingyan and the others listened and gradually fell into deep thought.

On the other hand, the governor was somewhat unwilling to see that the King of Qin and Pei Jingyuan did not accept the beauties. These beauties were all trained by him for many years. As long as they accepted them, he would have a way to make them addicted to beauty and gain benefits for himself. But they refused, which was equivalent to not giving him a chance.

Therefore, he could only arrange two women to sneak into their house and climb into their bed when it was dark. But he didn't expect that in the middle of the night, one of the two women was killed by the King of Qin, and the other was caught by Pei Jingyuan and thrown into the yard and scolded.
