After transmigrating into the book, the prime minister always wants to farm with me.

Chapter 223 Xiao Jingxuan's Birthday
Although he knew he was from the capital, Pei Yuanjun did not want to spare his life.

Seeing that Pei Yuanjun showed no restraint, the man in black, desperate to save his own life, disregarded everything else: "Prime Minister, I am Princess Mingzhu's man, you cannot kill... me, you know Princess Mingzhu is the Emperor's most beloved sister..."

Before he could finish speaking, Pei Yuanjun had already cut off his head.

Looking at the young master, Shi An felt that his expression and state were very abnormal.

The murderous aura emanating from him was like a solidified sword, capable of cutting anyone who got close.

After a moment, Pei Yuanjun looked away, remembering Qi Yunran who was still waiting for him at home.

A warmth appeared in his eyes, and the coldness on his body gradually dissipated.

He glanced coldly at the corpse on the ground and ordered, "Clean this place up. Send more people to the capital to keep a close watch on the Princess's residence and the High Priest's residence. Report any unusual activity immediately."

These people deserve to die; they ruined his chance to see his wife's wonderful speech and her happy, lively expressions.

In the blink of an eye, they were hundreds of meters away, and disappeared in just a few breaths.

Shi An stared in astonishment at the departing young master, whose martial arts skills had improved to an unfathomable level.

I always felt that his son was hiding many secrets.

But the young master was under his watchful eye every day, so he was certain there was nothing he didn't know.

What is it that the young master doesn't know?
Qi Yunran saw Pei Yuanjun return, dressed in all black.

She seemed to smell a faint scent of blood on him.

She frowned at him and asked, "Where did you go?"

Upon seeing Qi Yunran's small nose sniffing lightly, Pei Yuanjun immediately knew that it must be because he was covered in the smell of blood.

He subconsciously hid the sword behind his back.

"Pei Yuanjun, what are you hiding behind your back?"

"My wife, I couldn't resist sparring with Shi An just now because my hands were itching. I'm a little dirty, I'll go wash up first!"

After saying that, he strode away and quickly went to the bathhouse. Qi Yunran looked at Pei Yuanjun, and it looked to her like he was fleeing in panic.
Just then, Shi An returned: "Shi An, where did you go today?"

"Young master and I went to town!"

Qi Yunran was taken aback. Did these two not coordinate their stories when they lied?
Just then, Pei Yuanjun quickly finished showering and dressing and came out, glaring fiercely at Shi An.

Shi An touched his nose, puzzled. What did it have to do with him?

"Aren't you going down to take care of things?"

Seeing that the young master was angry, Shi An was completely baffled, but he quickly withdrew.

"Pei Yuanjun, are you hiding something from me?"

"My wife, you guessed it. Actually, I went to town to prepare a gift."

After saying that, she magically produced a white jade bracelet and put it on Qi Yunran's wrist before she could react.

The white jade bracelet is smooth and delicate, with excellent texture and translucency.

Qi Yunran immediately tried to take it off, but found that Pei Yuanjun put it on her very easily, and she couldn't take it off.

"Pei Yuanjun, what do you mean by this?"

Pei Yuanjun looked down at Qi Yunran, took her reddened hand and blew on it: "My wife, tomorrow is Xiao Jingxuan's birthday, you haven't forgotten, have you? When I bought him a gift, I also bought you a bracelet, don't you like it?"

Qi Yunran looked up in surprise: "How come I didn't know Xiao Jingxuan's birthday?"

Pei Yuanjun gently tapped her forehead: "You're a mother, yet you don't know your own son's birthday? You little scatterbrain! I wonder how heartbroken Jingxuan would be if he knew?"

"Then how do you know?"

Pei Yuanjun chuckled softly, "Because he's my son! That's why I know!"

Qi Yunran stared at him in astonishment. Did he really treat Xiao Jingxuan as his own son? Why?
