Although privately detaining a young woman serving forced labor violated military regulations, this was not the first time Chen Feng had done this, nor was he the only one to do so...
Even if they wanted to punish him, Chen Feng thought that the most he could do was to fine him his salary, so he admitted it without hesitation.
But even if he had ten times the courage, he would not dare to commit such a serious crime as selling out military secrets.
There is no doubt that someone framed him!
Chen Feng is not stupid, he can even be considered smart, and he is good at judging the situation.
Chen Feng knew who he belonged to and who to ask for help at this time.
Marquis Pei and the royal family have had a long-standing grudge. Today, he was accused of treason, probably because he wanted to use him as a warning to the Fourth Prince and the royal family... and now, the only one who could protect him in the big tent was the Fourth Prince.
"The Fourth Prince is wise!"
"I am completely loyal to His Majesty and the Great Chu! I have absolutely no ulterior motives!"
Chen Feng prostrated himself on the ground to express his loyalty to the Fourth Prince.
But he had been kneeling with his head bowed, so naturally he could not see Chu Xun's eyes that suddenly turned bloodshot when he heard him admit that he had "secretly detained the young lady."
"That young lady..."
The veins on his hands bulged beneath his sleeves. Chu Xun gritted his teeth and spoke word by word, "Where are you now?"
"Little...little lady...?"
Why is the Fourth Prince concerned about that young lady?
Could it be that the Fourth Prince and that young lady...
Chen Feng's body suddenly froze, and he dared not think any further.
He felt a chill rising from the ground, seeping into his limbs and bones before instantly reaching his forehead. He shivered from the cold, and his vision went blank...
The big tent suddenly became silent.
Pei Yan casually said to Chu Xun, "As far as I know... that young lady seems to be dead."
"What!"
Chu Xun stood up suddenly, looking at Pei Yan with red eyes, "Are you serious, Lord Pei?"
Pei Yan frowned and didn't answer. Instead, he squinted his eyes and looked at Chen Feng: "Tell me, is he dead or not?"
"without……"
Chen Feng wanted to say that he was not dead.
But when he raised his eyes, he saw the murderous look in the Fourth Prince's eyes, and he suddenly came to his senses.
It seems that the young lady is probably the Fourth Prince's...
If that were the case, even if the young lady were still alive, the Fourth Prince would not let him live.
What's more, the young lady is indeed dead.
If he said he was still alive, and the Fourth Prince asked him for someone, where would he conjure up someone?
"Dead. The young lady is dead."
Chen Feng's mind raced. Since he couldn't get any help from the Fourth Prince, he might as well ask Marquis Pei for help...
"I am guilty, please punish me, Lord Pei."
"But I have never sold our military intelligence to the barbarians. Someone must have framed me!"
"I hope Lord Pei will be careful and not fall for the real traitor's scheme!"
Chen Feng moved his kneeling legs, looked up at Pei Yan, and said with a loyal and courageous look on his face.
"Really?" Pei Yan lowered his eyes and looked at him.
Such a disloyal dog.
He won't want it.
"What does the Fourth Prince think?"
He raised his eyes to look at Chu Xun, "There are no outsiders in the tent today, so I will not beat around the bush with the Fourth Prince."
"This Chen Feng was sent by the Emperor. He betrayed military intelligence and colluded with the Hu people. If the Pei Army's rules were followed, he would have been killed long ago."
"However, due to his special status, I have not touched him. I wish to bring him back to the capital for His Majesty's decision. Since the Fourth Prince will be leaving for the capital tomorrow, I wonder if you would be so kind as to bring him back?"
After Pei Yan finished speaking, he glanced coldly at Chen Feng lying on the ground.
He originally wanted to chop off the man's head with his own hands, so that Huanhuan could vent her anger at the same time.
But when he saw Huanhuan's nervous look just now, he hesitated.
If he really chopped off this man's head on the spot, Huanhuan would not only not be happy, but would be afraid of him... It would be better to give it to Chu Xun.
However, Chu Xun did not do as Pei Yan wished.
His desire to kill Chen Feng was much stronger than Pei Yan imagined, but he was also more patient than Pei Yan knew.
"Does Marquis Pei have any evidence that Chen Feng is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country? If the evidence is irrefutable, why bring him back to the capital to make a final decision? Marquis Pei can simply execute him according to military law. As for my father, I will explain the reasons to him."
Chu Xun couldn't do it himself because Chen Feng was not his man. If he killed him, it would be tantamount to making another enemy for himself.
But no matter whether what Pei Yan said about him collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country was true or not, this beast killed her... even if he was torn into pieces by five horses, it would not be an exaggeration!
Upon hearing this, Pei Yan couldn't help but look at Chu Xun with higher regard.
He thought Chu Xun would lose his mind because of Miss Cui...
Now it seems that Miss Cui might not be that important...
This play is a bit boring.
Pei Yan pursed his lips and waved his hand helplessly, saying, "Pei Shen and Pei Chen, listen to what the Fourth Prince says and drag Chen Feng out and execute him."
Pei Shen and Pei Chen responded in unison.
Chen Feng was suddenly startled, "Fourth Prince! Fourth Prince, save me!"
"She's just a woman. I'll go find some better and more beautiful women for the Fourth Prince later."
——came to an abrupt end.
Before he could finish his words, the fourth prince's short blade flew out from his sleeve and cut off his head.
With a "bang", Chen Feng fell to the ground and blood splattered everywhere.
A few drops even fell into the teacup in front of Song Huan.
And the head actually rolled to Song Huan's feet.
Song Huan jumped up instantly, feeling nauseous.
Damn it, she never wanted to observe a high-definition murder scene up close again!
Pei Yan frowned, raised his long sleeves and pulled Song Huan into his arms, blocking her sight, and then kicked the head away.
"It's okay, Huanhuan is okay." He whispered to comfort her.
There were a few drops of blood on Chu Xun's white clothes.
He looked towards Pei Yan and Song Huan, and was blinded by the scene.
"Thank you, Lord Pei, for hosting the banquet today."
After he said that, he walked out of the tent without stopping for a moment.
Pei Yan glanced at his departing back, his eyes deepening.
It seems that this Fourth Prince... is more difficult to deal with than he knows.
"Pei Shen and Pei Chen, collect the bodies."
"yes."
“…”
There were two other people in the big tent, Lord Qin and Lord Li, who had already been frightened silly.
When Pei Yan said there were no outsiders in the tent, the two of them thought they were outsiders. But before they could even say goodbye, one thing after another happened, and they had actually seen it until now...
At this moment, the two of them hesitated to speak, their faces pale with fear, fearing that if they opened their mouths, Pei Hou would discover that there were two "outsiders" in the tent...
"Master Qin, Master Li."
Pei Yan looked at them and chuckled softly, "I'm sorry to have frightened you two today. Pei Shen, Pei Chen, I'll take you to the tent to rest for the night and then send you back home tomorrow morning."
The two men breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, immediately stood up and said goodbye to Pei Yan, and then ran out of the central military tent in a panic.
Pei Shen and Pei Chen walked out of the tent, one dragging the corpse and the other holding the head.
…
Song Huan listened to the gradual quieting down of his ears, covered his beating heart, slowly raised his head, blinked his big eyes, but did not look around, only dared to look at Pei Yan's face.
"…Has the body been moved?"
Pei Yan said softly, "They've already moved away, don't be afraid."
Song Huan let out a long sigh. When Chen Feng's head was cut open, she recalled some bad memories.
The head rolled towards her again. The scenes were so similar that she couldn't control herself for a moment.
"I'm not afraid." Song Huan waved his hand. "I'm quite courageous."
Pei Yan: “…” That’s all.
If my wife says she is not afraid, then she is not afraid.
Pei Yan's eyelids flickered slightly, and he paused before telling the real purpose of asking Song Huan to come to the central military tent.
"Actually, I originally wanted you to meet a few people tonight, but I never thought so many things would happen tonight. Are you tired, my lady? If you are tired, it's okay to meet those people later."
Song Huan's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Not tired."
Just a little nauseous, but she could handle it!
If we don’t meet now, what if Pei Yan regrets it later?
"Who does my husband want me to meet?"
Pei Yan frowned, "Madam, are you really not tired?"
Song Huan shook his head decisively.
Pei Yan's eyes deepened, and after a moment's silence, he said, "I originally wanted to have them come to the central army tent, but this tent is not suitable for meeting people right now. If my lady wants to see them, I'm afraid she'll have to walk a distance with me."
Song Huan nodded his chin, "Okay."
Pei Yan nodded and took Song Huan's hand and walked out of the tent.
But they had just taken two steps when a prompt sounded from the system.
"Dear, the countdown is about to begin. Please give your capture target, Pei Yan, a kiss within ten seconds."
Song Huan: "Ten seconds?!"
System: "The countdown has begun—ten, nine..."
Song Huan suddenly stopped and grabbed Pei Yan.
Pei Yan turned around and looked at her. "What's wrong? Do you want to go back and rest?"
"Eight, seven..."
"no."
Song Huan asked bluntly: "Can I kiss you?"
Pei Yan's ears suddenly turned red: "...Huanhuan, this isn't a good place."
"Three, two..."
There's no time.
No matter what Pei Yan said, Song Huan closed his eyes, stood on tiptoe and kissed him.
But the moment she kissed Pei Yan, her eyes suddenly turned crimson and her feet began to spin...
Song Huan: “……?”
Is this broken system a demon?! He’s cheating her again!
The author has something to say: Jinjin: The last hard advertisement.
My pre-collected article "Dressed as a Big Boss's Babysitter"——
Copywriter: Qi Chengcheng woke up and found herself in a book.
She was reborn as the evil boss who locked the heroine in a small dark room and tortured her, and the... nanny in Fu Su's family.
Qi Chengcheng felt that if she ran up to the boss now and said that he would be cannon fodder for the male protagonist in the future... the boss would definitely think she was crazy.
So she decided to be a nobody and work hard while the boss was still alive, and make money from him.
After the boss died, she would use the money to live her own life.
But——why was she the one locked in the “small dark room”???

Hard advertising 2: A little angel mentioned Weibo’s private car before, but... you know, my level is limited.
If you don’t mind, you can wait until this article is finished and check out the Weibo account. The Weibo account has been posted in the copywriting.
(Highlight note: I’ll have time to write about this once the private car is finished, so I don’t need to go now!)
