Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Chapter 447 Mastermind: Eldest Daughter Qiao Xinhua

Pei Zhujin nodded slightly: "Did you get the answer through torture?"

"This man is very stubborn. He has been tortured more than a dozen times, but he still refuses to say anything."

The subordinate seemed to be afraid of being blamed and added, "We caught him after chasing him for a quarter of an hour. The two young masters and their distinguished guests are enjoying themselves in Qingfeng's original territory. I didn't want to disturb their fun, so I waited for them to come back before reporting to them."

Pei Zhujin praised his men's actions and said, "Let's talk about it when we get back."

Qiao Lian'er glanced at Dacheng's face and saw a layer of gloom covering his face. In fact, when she left the city this morning, she could see that Dacheng was worried.

They are all members of the Qiao family. As soon as she thought about it, she understood what Dacheng was thinking.

When we arrived at Pei's house, we just happened to have dinner.

This time, Mr. and Mrs. Pei were not there. Everyone was in their teens, chatting and laughing freely, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed.

At the end of the meal, Pei Shijiu was the first to put down his chopsticks and leave the hall.

Pei Zhujin took a look at his figure and knew what his younger brother was going to do. Although his younger brother was young, he was more ruthless and resolute than him, which seemed to be something he was born with.

Therefore, it might be easier to get results if my younger brother were to conduct the interrogation.

"Miss Qiao, I will give you an explanation for what happened this morning no matter what. You can go back to the yard and rest first. I will inform you as soon as I have any news." Pei Zhujin said.

Qiao Jianer wanted to go to the dungeon and looked hesitant.

"The dungeon is damp and not good for the human body. We try not to let guests go to places like that." Pei Zhujin seemed to see through her thoughts.

Although the Pei family dungeon is not like the prisons in the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple, which are full of prisoners, some of the situations inside can still leave a shadow in your mind after seeing them.

Qiao Jian'er returned to the yard first, but Dacheng had already returned and was waiting for her under the pavilion.

As soon as he saw her, he immediately stood up and walked quickly to her.

"Sickle, I have something to tell you."

"Well, Brother Dacheng, is it because someone tried to assassinate me this morning?"

Dacheng shook his head: "As expected, nothing can be hidden from your eyes."

Qiao Jianer continued to guess: "Brother Dacheng feels that the capital is unsafe and has more concerns about staying here."

Dacheng sighed, "Yeah, we've just settled here, and we're being targeted. They're even shooting arrows at us in the streets. I always feel uneasy. The capital is certainly prosperous and has many opportunities, but is it necessarily suitable for us?"

"So, did those people hurt me?" Qiao Lian'er looked at Dacheng, her eyes cold and gloomy, hiding a kind of calmness that could remain calm even if faced with a collapse of Mount Tai.

Dacheng was stunned by the question: "No, but——"

"Have we encountered few dangers in Datian Village? Our Qiao family is really finished." Qiao Jianer continued to ask.

Dacheng thought about how the Qiao family had been besieged by bandits in the mountains many times over the past year, and how they had nearly been annihilated by Song Lao San. This time, they had even nearly been defeated by the Qiao family in the capital and become the ones who stole their military merits.

But every time, I can escape danger.

"This is the capital." Dacheng said in a low voice. He no longer had the confidence to hold on to the idea he had just held.

"So what?" Qiao Jian'er raised her eyebrows. "You've seen it too. If they want to deal with you, even if you're far away in the South, they'll still come all the way from the capital. What's the difference between that and us being here in the capital?"

"On the contrary, here, at the feet of the emperor and in front of the Pei family, there are more opportunities to break the deadlock."

"Brother Dacheng, you can not want to stay in the capital for any reason, but it can not be because of lack of courage. Otherwise, if we really go back, how will you face yourself?"

Dacheng's heart trembled, and he felt that his limbs were once again penetrated by that kind of passionate ambition, and his chest and back straightened up.

"Kamera, what you said makes sense, but I'm definitely not a coward. I'm just worried about you and Zhizhi."

"That's also cowardice. Since you have the courage, you must also believe that everyone in the Qiao family is definitely not a coward."

"I will not stop moving forward just because of some petty and shameful things."

Dacheng stared at her in amazement, shocked by her fearless spirit and resolute belief, and was unable to utter a word.

When he arrived in the capital, he realized that he had underestimated the courage of Jian'er. In this capital city that was like a solid wall of steel welded by high-ranking nobles and rising stars, a cold arrow suddenly struck from an invisible place. Anyone would be worried if they didn't know the opponent's background and strength, but Jian'er didn't take it seriously at all.

On the contrary, he is in a constant state of anxiety, and it is almost becoming a knot in his heart. It is really funny.

The sickle is not afraid, what is he afraid of?

"Okay, Jian'er, no matter what happens in the future, I will never say such things again. We will face it together and realize our ambitions here together."

A smile appeared on Qiao Jianer's lips, and she punched Dacheng in the chest with great force: "That's right."

Dacheng was extremely ashamed. Jian'er was only thirteen years old, but she acted like an adult. It was he who needed her encouragement and comfort.

Qiao Zhizhi stood under the eaves and listened to everything Qiao Jianer said. She was a little worried about what happened in the morning, but now she has no worries at all.

Jian'er didn't care about any dangers or difficulties. Since she had made the decision, they just followed her.

The two brothers of the Pei family entered the yard.

"There's a result." Pei Shijiu said.

Several people entered the hall and the servants added tea.

"Those idiots, what's the use of torture for some hard bones? They wasted a whole day. I got the answer in just half an hour." Pei Shijiu took a sip of tea and felt that the bad air in his throat was much clearer.

"It seems that the second young master has his own unique skills." Qiao Lianer said.

"I just fed him a pill to make him confused first, and then everything will be much easier." Pei Shijiu opened his palm, and a red pill lay in it.

"Little girl, this is for you. This medicine is hard to come by. I only have three. Maybe one day, you'll be able to use it."

Qiao Jianer took it without hesitation and put it into her sleeve, which was actually into the space, and then waited for them to continue.

"That person was sent by Qiao Xinhua." Pei Zhujin said.

"Qiao Xinhua, who is that?" Qiao Zhizhi asked.

"Mr. Qiao Sanye's eldest daughter, and Qiao Chaoheng's sister."

"Aside from Qiao Lian'er, who committed suicide, weren't the rest of Mr. Qiao's family imprisoned and scheduled for execution later this year?" Qiao Jian'er wondered, "How could Qiao Xinhua send someone to assassinate me?"

"This story begins with the Liu family proposing a marriage to Qiao Xinhua. However, the Liu family was relatively humble. Master Liu was only a seventh-rank editor, and Young Master Liu had only passed the imperial examination. Third Master Qiao's family declined. Generals Xu and Lu escorted Third Master Qiao's family back to the capital, and Qiao Xinhua learned the news early. To preserve her bloodline, she immediately accepted the Liu family's proposal. She hastily married into the Liu family before the escort team arrived in the capital, saving her life."

Pei Zhujin continued, "If she wants to survive, this choice is certainly a bit risky, but it's not a bad idea. As long as she behaves herself, no one will make things difficult for her."

"Who knew she would blame Miss Qiao for all those grudges and avenge her family, sending assassins to attack her."
