Chapter 271: The Miao Border Gu Woman Who Was Exterminated (4)
Su Li stood invisible in the yard, watching waves of men entering and leaving the room where Li Che was, and couldn't help but raise her lips.
Just let him suffer here for now!
But I have other things to do!
Su Li's mind changed and he disappeared on the spot.
When she returned to Prince Xuan's Mansion, she had turned into Prince Xuan Li Che.
At this time, the housekeeper was looking for him everywhere for dinner.
"Your Highness, where have you been just now! The dinner is ready, it's time to eat!" Butler Zhou saw Su Li and quickly walked up to him and said.
"Okay, I got it. Let's go!" Su Li nodded.
Soon, Su Li saw a large table full of delicious food.
It seems that this dog prince is living a pretty good life!
After sending away the steward Zhou who had been following him like a follower, Su Li finally started to enjoy the meal!
Well, the chef in this palace does have some cooking skills!
After enjoying the delicious food, Su Li began to plan to deal with the Pei family in Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion!
The title of Zhenyuan Marquis was earned by Mr. Pei through a lifetime of military service!
However, his three sons were people who could only enjoy the legacy of his father, and none of them could support the future marquisate!
The eldest son is lustful, the second son is addicted to gambling, and the third son has been sickly since childhood.
If it weren't for Mr. Pei still guarding the border, the title of this marquis would have been taken back by the current emperor long ago because of some troubles of the Pei family!
Pei Yuehua and Pei Yueshuang are the daughters of the eldest brother of the Pei family!
The eldest son of the Pei family has many wives and concubines in the backyard and countless children. The most outstanding one is Pei Yuehua, the daughter of his wife.
Unfortunately, the wife never had any children after that!
Among the three sons of the Pei family, only the eldest son of the Pei family holds a sinecure position in the Ministry of War!
Therefore, Su Li planned to first take action against the second son of the Pei family who was addicted to gambling!
She first went to Pei's house and put all the valuable silver, silver bills, deeds, valuable objects, etc. into the companion space.
He then found someone to trick the other party into owing the casino a large sum of gambling money.
So, a group of thugs holding the signature of the second son of the Pei family came to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion in a mighty manner, "Where is the second son of the Pei family? Let him come out quickly! It is only natural that debts should be paid back!"
The Pei family's doorman hurried in to report, and only then did the Pei family's eldest son learn that his brother was a gambler!
Upon learning that he owed tens of thousands of taels of silver, the eldest brother of the Pei family wanted to hang up his younger brother and beat him up!
He had no choice but to ask the accountant to withdraw money to pay off his debt, but found that there was no money available in the warehouse!
All the silver, land deeds and valuables in his Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion disappeared!
Now, the head of the Pei family was completely panicked.
Where did the thief come from?
How could he take away so many things from his house without anyone noticing?
"Second brother, you have to handle this matter yourself! There is no money in the account, and I can't do anything about it!"
The eldest son of the Pei family gave up the task and let the second son of the Pei family solve it himself, while he hired someone to investigate the theft of his own things.
Unfortunately, as if things weren't bad enough, not only did they not find the silver.
Even the third son of the Pei family was in danger because he had no money to buy the best tonic!
The helpless eldest brother of the Pei family could only seek help from his daughter who was married to Prince Xuan's Mansion.
But when he learned that his daughter would be out of the city and go to Cijing Temple for half a year, he had no choice but to find Prince Xuan, also known as Su Li.
"Your Highness, the Marquis's Mansion has recently been targeted by a group of thieves who came from nowhere, and all the property in the house has disappeared! Now the second son has owed a large gambling debt, and the third son has stopped taking tonic medicine and is in danger of death. Can you lend me some money to tide over the difficulties for the time being?"
"Of course!" Su Li curled his lips, "But the expenses of my palace are very high, and I can't lend you much. I'll lend you a thousand taels of silver first!"
The eldest brother of the Pei family frowned slightly.
This thousand taels of silver is really a drop in the bucket!
"If you want money, there are ways! Let me show you a way!" Su Li continued.
"Okay, Your Highness, please tell me!" The head of the Pei family asked hurriedly when he heard that there was a way to make money.
"There is a Qingfeng Village a few hundred miles south of the capital, which specializes in robbing merchants of their supplies and money. You work in the Ministry of War..."
Su Li curled her lips and said, "My father has been quite troubled by this matter recently. If you can help him share his worries..."
"I understand! I will take people to do it right away!" The head of the Pei family understood immediately.
Seeing him leaving with one thousand taels, Su Li curled her lips.
Sending troops without the old emperor's permission is a capital offense!
Whether you succeed or not, you are guilty!
However, the head of the Pei family thought that with Prince Xuan as the guarantor, there would be no problem!
Although he holds an idle position in the Ministry of War, he has no problem mobilizing several thousand people because of his relationship with Marquis Zhenyuan!
So, the head of the Pei family led thousands of officers and soldiers and headed towards Qingfeng Village with great momentum!
After several days of fighting, this bandit stronghold that killed people without blinking an eye was finally wiped out!
However, the leading leaders were not caught. Somehow, they escaped!
No one knew that it was Su Li's masterpiece!
If you don't remove the roots of the grass, there will be trouble in the future!
Su Li wanted to make those bandit leaders a scourge to the Pei family!
There was so much money and valuables in the village that the head of the Pei family was dazzled.
He simply pocketed one third of the money and then went to the capital with the remaining money!
However, before he arrived in the capital, someone reported him to the authorities!
They said he mobilized soldiers without authorization and had evil intentions!
When he arrives in the capital, what awaits him is imprisonment!
The fact that he embezzled money was also exposed, and the money and property that had been transferred away in advance were also found in Pei's house!
The furious old emperor threw him directly into prison and executed him at a later date!
Not only that, those bandit leaders found out that it was the boss of the Pei family who led the troops to destroy their Qingfeng Village.
They climbed over the wall into Pei's house in the middle of the night and killed everyone in the Pei family!
However, just when these bandit leaders were preparing to go to other officials' homes for a massacre, Su Li appeared!
"Who are you? Why are you blocking our way?" One of the bandits questioned Su Li with a bloody knife in his hand, looking murderous.
"Brothers, why waste time talking to her! We are here to kill people! Just kill them!"
"Yes, kill her, and then we will massacre the entire capital city to avenge our dead brothers!" said the leading bandit leader.
"You have no chance!" Su Li said lightly.
Then, she flicked her sleeves, and a powerful spiritual power attacked the few people!
Soon, several people fell to the ground with a thud, without a sound!
After investigating the Pei family massacre, the government in the capital city discovered that it was revenge by bandits.
The bandit died not far from Pei's house, and the matter was left unresolved!
As for the head of the Pei family who was in prison, he fainted immediately after learning that the entire Pei family had been wiped out!
Because of this incident, the old emperor temporarily suppressed the punishment of the Pei family's eldest brother and planned to detain him for a period of time first!
After all, his father, Mr. Pei, is still guarding the border.
If he knew that all his descendants were gone, who knows what impulsive things he would do!
