Chapter 186 Found (Part 2)
Pei Jia was so hungry that he didn't even have the strength to roll his eyes.
The killer squatted before him, hesitant, and said, "She has no intention of looking for you."
"I'll let you go back, but you have to lead her out for me."
"Since she treated you so cruelly, you don't have to care about her life."
"Nod if you agree."
Pei Jia shook his head.
The killer was so angry that he jumped up and down.
"Okay, then it's not too much of a hassle for you to take me out of the city, right?"
Pei Jia nodded, then shook his head.
"What does this mean?" The killer frowned and reached out to take the gag from his mouth.
"If you dare to scream, I will kill you and chop you into pieces and feed you to the pigs. The pigs will eat you cleanly, leaving no meat at all."
The killer had just finished speaking.
All I heard were a few muffled "puff" sounds that were almost overlapping.
One arrow pierced the left shoulder, one arrow pierced the right shoulder, and one arrow pierced the thigh.
The killer fell down unexpectedly.
Pei Jia widened his eyes in shock, listening to the footsteps outside getting closer and closer.
"Prince! You are really here!" The first person to come in was an official, who recognized Pei Jia at a glance.
Prince?
Pei Jia was stunned.
Then another set of footsteps approached, one of which was a little hurried.
But soon, the footsteps stopped outside.
Fu Yi grabbed Cheng Nianying and said unbearably: "...dirty."
He ordered those around him: "Go and carry it out."
The killer and Pei Jia were carried out one after another.
Pei Jia saw Cheng Nianying first. Who said she didn't look for me? Isn't she here now? Pei Jia's eyes were sore. He wanted to speak, but found his mouth was still blocked.
He was dirty and smelly.
Master Pei was so embarrassed that he wanted to faint immediately.
Wu Xun pinched his nose and looked at Cheng Nianying: "Miss Jiang, you..."
Cheng Nianying glared at him: "I never hide in the pigpen!"
Pei Jia shrank his tall body, wanting to cry but unable to.
Cheng Nianying walked up to him, untied him, and wiped his face with a handkerchief.
Fu Yi glanced at the handkerchief.
And held back the jealousy.
"Brother." Cheng Nianying said softly, "You have suffered."
Pei Jia suddenly felt alive again: "No, no, it's okay."
Fu Yi lowered his eyes and looked at the killer who was thrown to the ground.
"Dead?"
The guard bent down and reached out to feel around: "Master, no."
Fu Yi asked, "From Imperial Capital?"
The killer's face was distorted, and his fingers were bent. He suddenly struggled and stood up regardless of his injuries.
Cheng Nianying turned around at the same time, but before a flying kick could land, Wu Xun, who was closer, attacked.
He punched the killer on the arm.
The hand suddenly deformed, making a cracking sound, and then fell down limply, as if it had been broken.
The killer fell down with another "bang".
"I didn't hit you in the chest, I just wanted to keep you alive." Wu Xun said coldly, and then shook his hands with a whine, "It's so dirty!"
Fu Yi then continued, "Since he refused to answer whether he came from the Imperial Capital, we removed his limbs and jaw. After the medicine on his body wore off, we cut his tendons, broke his finger bones, and gouged out his eyes..."
"It is to comfort Master Pei for the hardships he has endured these past few days."
Pei Jia shuddered when he heard this.
The county magistrate didn't tremble. He cursed angrily, "How dare you kidnap Master Pei and assassinate the prince! His entire family should be executed!"
Fu Yi chuckled: "I wonder if he has a family. Can you go and look for them for him?"
After all, a killer is not a dead man.
They do this to live, not to die.
The man's lips trembled, and as his teeth clashed, he uttered, "Yes...I'm from Yujing."
"I didn't assassinate the prince." He said in a trembling voice.
But who believes it?
Fu Yi nodded: "You saved your life, take him away."
"I want to take him away." Fu Yi turned to Cheng Nianying and said.
"take away?"
"Well, I should go back to the Imperial Capital. There are some urgent matters that I need to deal with." Fu Yi paused, "Will you come with me?"
Pei Jia stood up excitedly: "Sister!"
As was Fu Yi's usual style, he was about to start persuading her at this moment.
You know, only if you leave, Pei Mansion will be safer.
But this time Fu Yi said nothing and just waited quietly for Cheng Nianying to make a choice.
"...I'll go with you." Cheng Nianying said softly.
Fu Yi smiled: "Hearing you say that, I am much happier. You don't have to follow me to the Imperial Capital, but you can't stay in Heqing either. Go to the Hanging Temple. Let Pei Jia go with you. It's safe there and won't bring trouble to the Pei Mansion."
"How about you just wait for me there?"
Pei Jia responded first: "Okay!"
Fu Yi said, "I will investigate what you want to investigate. Just wait for my good news. There are no conditions this time."
This sounds like an excellent compromise.
There was no reason for Cheng Nianying to refuse.
She nodded.
Fu Yi opened his arms.
Cheng Nianying was stunned for a moment, then walked up to him and hugged him.
Pei Jia was watching with anger in his eyes, but he couldn't stop it.
Fu Yi glanced sideways and caught a glimpse of Cheng Nianying's soft, white neck.
Is this what it feels like to love someone?
Even if it is unbearable, I can still endure it.
Fu Yi quickly let her go and turned to get on the carriage.
From the time they arrested the person to the time they left, there was not even a moment's pause.
The county magistrate on the side immediately arranged to send Pei Jia back.
Cheng Nianying stood there, slowly frowning.
Is it because Fu Yi likes her, likes her very much, likes her very much, so he doesn't force her to stay with him?
*
Imperial Capital.
The killer's letter was finally delivered to the right person.
"How can I not kill him?" Cen Yaoxin was speechless.
The masked man sitting in the main seat glanced at her.
Cen Yaoxin now has a broken leg, but her face is intact.
"Didn't the letter say it? Prince Danshuo is beside us, so it's not easy to take action." The masked man said slowly.
Cen Yaoxin didn't dare to offend him, so she lowered her voice and said, "There's always a time to leave."
The masked man held out his hand: "Give me the portrait. Let me see what kind of woman is favored by Fu Yi."
He unfolded the drawing paper.
His eyes changed slightly: "Princess? Didn't she die of illness?"
Cen Yaoxin was also very surprised: "She looks like the Princess? Is she a stand-in?"
The man stood up and paced, puzzled. A vague idea flashed through his mind, but he couldn't grasp it.
He suddenly remembered: "Has that traitor been caught?"
"No."
"I remember she disappeared when she was trying to assassinate the Princess."
"yes."
"Ah, so that's how it is?" the man muttered to himself.
