Walking out of Yuelai Building, Mi Xiayao obviously had a low-pressure aura around her.
She got into the carriage, which started off in no hurry.
The master and servant were sitting in the carriage, and Mi Xiayao was telling Song Qiao: "Take this piece of paper and go to the government office to sue them in my name."
"If someone from the government office watches someone serve food, you will kill him with a word."
Song Qiao asked curiously, "What?"
"Repaying debts is a matter of course. Going to the government offices is just a formality. If they are unwilling to take action, there is no need to force them."
She unconsciously touched the ring on her ring finger, but her beautiful eyes had already cast a decisive and fierce expression.
Song Qiao responded quickly and got off the car with the paper in her arms.
Here, when Mi Xiayao was about to ask the coachman to drive to Pei Mansion, someone suddenly blocked the way in front of the carriage, and the coachman said something.
She lifted the curtain and looked up.
This sedan chair looked low-key, but the person next to it was dressed in an extraordinary way. That person stepped forward, leaned over and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you, Miss Mi, for a long time. My master wants to see you."
"From the palace?" She lowered her eyes and saw that the man was wearing a brocade that was only available in the palace.
The palace servant who was exposed didn't seem to be in a hurry and said with a smile: "The female official has good eyesight. My prince and the female official want to chat for a few words. The prince has said it. Don't worry, they are talking about serious matters."
"I'm not going." She immediately brushed off the other person's face and rejected him in a cold voice.
The palace man's gentle smile just now was frozen on his face for a moment.
"The things we discussed are useful to the female officer."
"I won't go then. I have no communication with the prince, and there is nothing we can discuss."
She glanced at the palace man, put down the curtain in her hand, and prepared to let the groom go his own way and continue walking.
"What if it involves Young Master Mi? My master already knows his true identity. If we kill him, we will have no worries about the future."
There was no sound in the carriage for a moment. After a pause of about three seconds, she opened the curtain.
At this moment, the indifferent mood just now was gone.
"Then kill the person who has no ambitions and only cares about putting money into his pocket. Even if you kill one person, you won't be able to make a bloody path. Your master and I will have nothing to talk about in this life.
"Go back and tell your superior master that he has driven me into a panic. No one will be able to feel better!"
With sharp eyes, she put down these harsh words and raised her voice to the coachman: "Drive!"
The wheels of the carriage turned leisurely.
The palace man stood there looking a little embarrassed.
He stared at Mi Xiayao's carriage with a faint gaze, and finally walked to the sedan chair and asked in a low voice: "Master..."
The person in the sedan chair did not show his true appearance, but just chuckled.
"I didn't expect... The prince has lost patience in the eyes of this female official, and he made the wrong move."
These words fell lightly.
——
The carriage drove straight to the back door of Pei Mansion. After Mi Xiayao got off the carriage, her face still didn't look much better.
The housekeeper at the back door had already received the news and opened the door.
I felt a gust of wind, and by the time the housekeeper reacted, Mi Xiayao had already walked into the courtyard quickly.
Pei Xingyuan's confinement lasted a few days later than Mi Xiayao's. In addition, this courtyard was given by the emperor and had not had time to repair it.
When I first looked inside the courtyard, I felt a bit desolate.
The housekeeper hurriedly followed and brought the woman who did not dare to offend to the door of the study.
"Sir, Miss Mi is here."
There was a sudden crash in the study, and Mi Xiayao frowned and opened the door.
Upon entering, he saw Pei Xingyuan sitting among a pile of blue books, looking at the door with an incredulous expression on his handsome face.
"You actually came here?"
"You didn't say that yourself. You asked me to come to you after I am released from the ban. Do you have anything to tell me?"
Mi Xiayao looked around, she couldn't get out of the study at all.
The housekeeper wisely stepped back, and before leaving, he also took away the cleaning servants around him.
"Then I don't want to keep a little more presence here with you..." He muttered something.
Mi Xiayao didn't hear what he muttered clearly, "Your confinement days are quite nourishing. You can clean up the room to pass the time."
Pei Xingyuan stepped out from the pile of books. He stood in front of Mi Xiayao, and it was rare to see his dazed look.
"You have nothing to tell me?"
She raised her eyebrows, looked at Pei Xingyuan, and asked.
When he said that last time, he just wanted to...be a bitch.
But now that she was here, Pei Xingyuan said that he was not happy, which was a lie.
Mi Xiayao didn't wait for him to reply to her, she said directly: "Then I have something to tell you."
Pei Xingyuan took her to the tidy room next door and sat down.
"Let me ask you something first. Regarding the investment in Jingzhou City, how much did you do in your name?"
she asked frankly.
This matter sounded a bit distant to Chad. He pondered for a moment and responded casually: "This matter has passed through my hands and I promoted it, but it is other people who really do it."
Mi Xiayao listened for a long time and finally asked, "So, if the incident in Jingzhou City was really brought up, it wouldn't involve you, right?"
Pei Xingyuan was about to nod, but suddenly he realized that something was not right about Mi Xiayao's temper today.
"But after all, it passed my hands. If anyone continues to investigate, I will not be able to avoid being affected."
He paused for a moment and asked tentatively: "Why, on the first day after the ban was lifted, did you receive any grievances?"
Pei Xingyuan's low tone of inquiry was too gentle.
When she thought about the description she heard from Gu Yun in Yuelai Building today, she became angry and told Pei Xingyuan a rough description of those experiences.
"I just walked out of Yuelai Tower and was about to let Song Qiao target Duan Honglin when I met the prince's people. Guess what the prince was going to say to me."
Mi Xiayao leaned forward and angrily described the scene to Pei Xingyuan.
Her angry mood became a little more lifelike and cute in Pei Xingyuan's eyes.
"The prince actually told me that he already knew Mi Xiaobao's true identity, and threatened me with this matter, saying that if I didn't follow him, he would kill Mi Xiaobao."
"None of these bad things in the capital went well with me. I was... so angry that I scolded the prince..."
When she said this, her rationality finally gained the upper hand.
Pei Xingyuan held his chin with one hand and looked at the little woman who was gradually waking up in front of him with a fond smile on his raised red phoenix eyes.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Then you slapped your butt and turned around and came to complain to me?"
"I didn't slap my butt!" She retorted after hearing this.
