Chapter 36 Asking for help
Fu Qian glanced at Zhou Fangze again, a little hesitant, but still whispered to Pei Xuanyi.
"Don't trust Zhou Fangze's words. I know Qixuan, and he is definitely not as brave as he said, and he will be restrained by wine and meat."
He was afraid that the emperor's grandson did not understand Qin Qixuan, was deceived by Zhou Fangze's words, and had a prejudice against Qin Qixuan.
But since Pei Xuanyi believed in Qin Xixi, he naturally loved Qin Xixi and had a good feeling for Qin's family.
He nodded to Fu Qian and lowered his voice.
"I know Brother Qixuan's character, and I believe he will not act like this. Don't worry, I know what I am doing."
Hearing Pei Xuanyi say this, Fu Qian was relieved.
The two men resumed their normal voices and began to discuss the next plan.
Pei Xuanyi understood that the other party might have become desperate criminals, and only sufficient force could scare them.
He did not know much about the military forces nearby, and the nearby officials would probably be perfunctory because of his young age.
At this time, it took a senior official like Fu Qian who was familiar to him to scare the surrounding troops and send troops to rescue.
"Sir Fu, this token is for you. Go to the nearest city to ask for reinforcements. Be quick, the people over there with grain and grass are ambitious, and even if I, the grandson of the emperor, go there, I am afraid I will not be able to intimidate them."
"Better to be incomplete than to be reckless. You must find someone you trust to prevent them from colluding with each other and putting us in a greater crisis."
Fu Qian nodded solemnly.
Pei Xuanyi transferred more than half of the guards to him.
Moreover, each of these guards is the best in the guard team.
"Your Highness, you should leave the guards to yourself. The grain and hay area is dangerous and difficult to deal with."
Pei Xuanyi shook his head.
"Even if all the guards are deployed, they may not be able to resist." Whether
they can save the grain and hay depends on the reinforcements. Fu Qian must not get into trouble.
Upon hearing this, Fu Qian had no choice but to get on his horse and head towards the nearest city.
[I'm so sleepy...]
Qin Xixi yawned, and an irresistible force pulled her and made her fall into a deep sleep again.
Sure enough, this time she dreamed about the situation with Qin Qixuan.
Qin Qixuan's hands were tied together and his face was bruised, but he didn't lose his momentum at all and looked very relaxed.
Wang Yao, on the other hand, put him and the food together with a sad face.
"Master Wang, you have to think it over. If I die here this time, the master who sent me here knows my mission and who killed me. I am the eldest son of the Qin family. The Qin family is a royal merchant with spies all over the country. If you touch me, you have to be careful of the Qin family's pursuit."
Qin Qixuan's words made Wang Yao's face change again and again, and he squeezed out a fake smile.
"So it's the eldest son of Qin. I'm so rude."
He rolled his eyes and asked tentatively.
"The Qin family is now headed by a woman, and it is difficult to regain its former glory. Why don't you cooperate with me, and let's combine officials and businessmen..."
Qin Qixuan sneered. Is he trying to buy him off?
"Don't worry, sir. My mother has managed the Qin family's business in an orderly manner. I am afraid that before your death, the Qin family still has enough power to hunt you down. Besides, as imperial merchants, why should we collude with court officials? Can you compare with the royal family?"
It's so arrogant!
Wang Yao was so angry that his face turned blue, and he couldn't tell who was the villain for a while.
But Qin Qixuan's arrogance had his reasons.
The Qin family is indeed a big mountain. Now that he has discovered his secret, how can he avoid the Qin family and solve the problem of grain and grass and Qin Qixuan together?
In fact, Qin Qixuan was not as calm as he appeared.
When he was covering Zhou Fangze's escape just now, he was punched and kicked by the soldiers. He felt pain all over his body. Now he was in a trance and was struggling to deal with Wang Yao.
But both of them knew in their hearts that if Wang Yao no longer hated the Qin family, Qin Qixuan's threats would be useless.
After all, Wang Yao was ready to take action on food and grass. He dared to go against the royal family, so he must have a countermeasure.
Compared with the royal family, the Qin family was just a by-product. If Wang Yao was forced into a corner, he might die together with everyone.
Seeing that Qin Qixuan was unmoved, Wang Yao snorted and left.
Seeing him leave, Qin Qixuan finally couldn't help but sit down on the ground.
My internal organs hurt so much...
beaded sweat appeared on his forehead.
He seemed to see his sister in a daze.
Was she fainting?
Why could he still hear her talking?
[Brother, don't worry! Xixi is very strong and will come to save you soon! ]
Qin Xixi felt distressed when she saw her brother's miserable appearance and cried loudly.
Qin Qixuan smiled weakly at Xixi and tried to cheer himself up.
His sister was about to come, he couldn't fall down, he still had to protect his sister.
Qin Xixi's figure gradually faded, and she woke up from her dream.
Pei Xuanyi found that Qin Xixi was dreaming, but suddenly started crying, and realized that Qin Qixuan's condition was not good.
At this time, looking at Qin Xixi's tearful eyes, he felt even more distressed.
"Let's go faster. Qixuan is now in the hands of the other party and will inevitably be wronged."
Zhou Fangze's eyes flashed with panic.
If Qin Qixuan was rescued, wouldn't his lie be exposed?
At this moment, he wished that Qin Qixuan would die in Wang Yao's hands!
With a quick ride, several people finally arrived at the city where the grain army was temporarily stationed.
But Pei Xuanyi was not in a hurry to enter the city.
"We will pretend to be the young masters of a wealthy family on a study tour this time."
Fu Qian was not there at this time. There were two one-year-old children, a young boy, and a young man in their group. No one could imagine that they were here to investigate grain.
The only person who needed to be paid attention to was Zhou Fangze.
He had been here once before, so he needed to disguise himself well to avoid being noticed.
"Change your clothes and disguise your face so that no one can see any clues."
Pei Xuanyi asked someone to find a set of servant's clothes for Zhou Fangze to change into.
Zhou Fangze was not willing to dirty his face.
Moreover...
if he was recognized by the army escorting grain and grass, and someone went to report the news, then Qin Qixuan...
he smiled viciously.
With the little grandson of the emperor here, the officials would naturally not do anything to them.
As long as he kept his mouth shut, Qin Qixuan was secretly killed by Wang Yao, so the truth of the matter was up to him to say whatever he wanted, right?
He never thought that since Wang Yao was so bold as to burn the grain, how could he be afraid of a half-grown grandson of the emperor!
Pei Xuanyi put away his momentum at this time. At first glance, it was just a young master from a wealthy family passing by.
Little did he know that the spy stationed at the city gate recognized Zhou Fangze at a glance.
The spy secretly ordered someone to send a message to Wang Yao.
"The escapee is back, and he brought three children and a bunch of guards."
