Chapter 477 Don't Scare Your Daughter

I don’t know if those people in Zhongzhou Prefecture knew about it. They continued to chat with Master Pei, looking very natural, and their eyes were not staring at Master Pei’s teacup.

Pei Qingning couldn't tell either.

At this moment, Pei Qingning was looking at Master Pei, her father, with grievance through the hat on her head.

These days, she was being hunted outside and experiencing thrilling things. She was afraid and forced to grow up, and she suffered a lot both physically and mentally.

She finally understood why her father always controlled her, not allowing her to go to certain places, not allowing her to stay out for two hours, not allowing her to make friends easily, not allowing her to casually mention her background and date of birth, etc.... He even controlled what clothes she wore... especially not allowing her to dress inappropriately or expose her arms and legs.

Now she understood everything.

She has no mother, so her father does everything for her.

Everything Daddy did was for her safety.

Daddy really cares about her.

Pei Qingning looked at Master Pei and thought to herself, "Dad, I will definitely listen to you from now on and never argue with you again..."

How could Mr. Pei know all this? After drinking another cup of tea, he continued to discuss business with the people from Zhongzhou Prefecture. After the discussion, he personally sent the people from Zhongzhou Prefecture out.

As soon as he came back, he anxiously ordered his servants, "Hurry, go find the young lady. No matter how much money or effort it takes, you must find the young lady as soon as possible."

"We can't let her continue to wander around without any news."

Ever since Pei Qingning suddenly disappeared, Mr. Pei has been unable to eat or sleep well, and has been trying all kinds of ways to find his daughter.

He even personally took people out to look for her, leaving early and returning late every day. He had no time to take care of the family business, nor did he care about the affairs in the officialdom. The only thing in his eyes was finding his daughter.

Unfortunately, he searched for a long time but there was no news.

He murmured, "That silly girl Ning'er doesn't know anything. How can she withstand the dangers of the outside world?"

"Especially now that people from Zhongzhou Prefecture are targeting her again."

Yes, the people from Zhongzhou Prefecture just came here for Pei Qingning.

The eldest son of the Lord of Zhongzhou Prefecture wanted to marry Pei Qingning. A few days ago, he even sent a marriage proposal to Master Pei.

But Master Pei didn't respond, so people from Zhongzhou Prefecture came to his door today.

Regarding the marriage proposal in the post, these people kept asking Master Pei what he thought about it and whether he would agree or not.

Their questions were vague, without specifying what they were thinking about, and whether they would agree or not.

Jiujiu and his group naturally didn't understand what they were talking about, and Pei Qingning didn't think about herself either.

Pei Qingning's eyes were full of her father at this moment.

She stood at the entrance of the main hall, excitedly looking at people looking for her father.

Master Pei also looked at Pei Qingning who suddenly appeared. He felt that Pei Qingning's figure was very familiar. However, Pei Qingning was wearing a bamboo hat, and her body and face were covered. He really couldn't tell who Pei Qingning was.

Seeing Pei Qingning staring at him, he just thought it was because of the people inside.

He asked, "Excuse me, young lady, is the maid of Princess Xichu waiting anxiously? So she came to urge me?"

Master Pei was very humble and respectful.

"Female official?" Pei Qingning was puzzled.

Where did this female official come from?

Could it be that when the princess just showed the token and came in, everyone in the mansion misunderstood?

Did they mistakenly think that the princess's lady-in-waiting had come, rather than the princess herself?

That should be the case.

Otherwise, why would Dad be so busy receiving the people from Zhongzhou Prefecture and let the princess wait?

If my father knew that the princess was coming in person, he would definitely not dare to do this.

When Master Pei heard Pei Qingning's familiar voice, he narrowed his eyes, stared at Pei Qingning, and asked with red eyes: "Qingning? Is that you? Tell me, is it you?"

Based on the voice alone, Master Pei guessed that the person in front of him was Pei Qingning.

"Dad..." Pei Qingning did not hide it, "It's Qingning."

Anyway, the people from Zhongzhou Prefecture have already left and we are at home now, so there is no need to be afraid of them for the time being.

Pei Qingning tore off the hat on her head and rushed towards Master Pei. But when she got to Master Pei and was about to open her arms to hug him, Master Pei suddenly fell in front of her.

Pei Qingning was terrified. She squatted down quickly, picked up Master Pei's head, shook Master Pei's body, and said, "Dad, Dad, Dad, what's wrong with you?"

"Don't scare my daughter!"

"He has been poisoned." Jiujiu also came out at this moment. She expected Master Pei to faint, and she had also calculated the time of his fainting.

Jiujiu said: "Qing Ning, stop crying, quickly have someone carry Master Pei to the room and prepare to detoxify him."

Pei Qingning was panicking and scared, not knowing what to do, when Jiujiu spoke.

Pei Qingning instantly felt more confident and was no longer so scared.

The princess knows poison, and she can definitely detoxify her father.

Nothing will happen to Dad.

"Someone, come quickly, carry dad to the room."

"hurry up."

When the servants saw the missing young lady, they were delighted and carried Master Pei to the bed in the room according to the young lady's instructions.

Jiujiu followed and prepared to detoxify.

But just as Jiujiu opened the needle bag, took out the needle and prepared to give Master Pei an acupuncture, an uninvited guest arrived.

The person who came was the second master Pei, Pei Jing'an, the half-brother of Master Pei.

At this moment, Master Pei Er came with a note.

The note read: "My Lord of Zhongzhou Prefecture has a poison master under his command who is good at detoxification and can definitely save Master Pei from the poisoning. As long as the Pei family agrees to what we just discussed, the Lord will immediately send someone to save him."

[Mr. Pei had just fainted from the poison, and someone came to deliver a note? 】

[It seems that Master Pei's poisoning is closely related to Zhongzhou Prefecture.]

[And this Master Pei II...]

Jiujiu looked at Master Pei Er meaningfully.

Di Jiang directly concluded that there was something fishy going on with Master Pei II.

Qingshu couldn't see anything, he just felt that Pei Qingning was so miserable! As soon as he saw his father, he was poisoned and fainted.

After Master Pei Er finished reading the contents of the note, he glanced at Pei Qingning and said with concern, "Qingning is finally back."

Then he added: "Now that big brother has become like this, I will make the decision and agree to Qing Ning marrying the Lord of Zhongzhou Prefecture so that Zhongzhou Prefecture can send someone to detoxify big brother."

Pei Qingning: “…”

Jiujiu: “…”

So the thing they were discussing whether to agree or not was to let Pei Qingning marry the Lord of Zhongzhou Prefecture?

"No, no, I won't marry, I won't marry!" Pei Qingning cried and refused.

She ran into people from the Supreme Alliance of Zhongzhou Prefecture who were plotting to steal treasures from the tomb of the Mermaid Saint Jiaoyan in order to use them as military supplies for a rebellion.

The people of Zhongzhou Prefecture wanted to kill her.

How could he be so kind as to marry her?

The so-called marrying her must be to bring her home openly, lock her up, torture her, or kill her, and then find someone of their own to replace her.

She had read many stories about this kind of thing and understood it all.

She doesn't want it, doesn't want it...
