Chapter 332: Buying and selling cannot be done with justice (please vote for me)
A person who has been marching and fighting in a military camp where men gather for many years may not be close to women, but it cannot be said that he is completely ignorant of the relationship between men and women.

Pei Zhan was surrounded by silent ambiguity and knew that he should pull away, otherwise his decisive proposal to divorce last night would become a joke. However, he could not move his body, nor his hands and feet. He had never felt such charming charm before. The air in this room was so heavy that he lost all his strength.

"Don't get so close." He turned his face away, his hoarse voice sounding weak.

He never knew that even rejecting her was so difficult.

"Don't call me Zhan'er either. That will remind me of the past, the days when I could only watch you from a distance."

After being silent for a while, he went to the table and poured a cup of tea.

When I was about to drink, I found that there was only one cup.

He glanced hesitantly at Fu Zhen, who was still leaning on the kang table, and finally walked over with the tea and put it in her hand.

She was so hot that she was sweating, so she must be very hot too, right?

Fu Zhen turned the white porcelain cup. The quality of the porcelain was excellent, but it was extremely simple, which really resembled his master's temperament.

She took a sip and put it back on the table: "Then what should I call you?"

Pei Zhan didn't expect that she would ask this question again, what is it called? It's not that he didn't expect it, but in the past few months after getting married, apart from calling herself "General Pei", she had almost no other names, and she never asked.

Why are you suddenly asking now?

Pei Zhan licked his lips and still spoke with a wooden face: "Just call me cousin, Miss Fu."

Fu Zhen smiled: "I'm not your colleague or classmate, so what's my cousin's name? Don't call me Miss Fu either."

Having said that, she reached out and tugged at his sleeve.

Pei Zhan was pulled hard by her and his heart pounded in his chest. His tone became harder and harder: "What to do?"

Fu Zhen pulled again.

He sat down reluctantly and said with a straight face: "What do you want to say..."

Before he finished speaking, Fu Zhen suddenly leaned into the crook of his neck: "Do you have a nickname? What did your family call you when you were a child?"

Pei Zhan was caught off guard, and her entire neck and ears were burned by her. He turned his face away: "In our current situation, it's not appropriate for you to call me by my nickname." Also, she really should keep some distance...

"You can't say that. Business cannot be done without righteousness." Fu Zhen turned his face, "Even if we separate, we can't be friends? For the sake of living in the same room for a few months, what will happen to me in the future? Please, can’t you take care of me?”

Pei Zhan didn't want her to break up, but he couldn't, so his face was squeezed and deformed in her palm. His face was full of disgust: "You have a pretty good idea. If we separate, we will be in harmony with each other. I am your cousin, what else do you want from me?"

"It's better to look for someone familiar than to look for someone new!"

Fu Zhen looked into his eyes. This was the first time she looked at him so closely. This face was so heroic, with handsome features and sharp edges, and he felt so present in her soft palms.

She didn't know why she recalled that she had rubbed this face when she was a child. At that time, his face was plump and chubby, which was very good for her.

She couldn't help but rub it twice more.

It doesn't feel like it did when I was a kid, but my palms feel inexplicably hot.

——He can no longer be regarded as that child. Now he is so strong and handsome, and his whole body is full of strength.

But he is indeed still the same child. Whether it is the way he was drunk in the tofu shop or the way he refuses to speak properly, he is so awkward and interesting!

At this time, Pei Zhan was stunned. He was dumbfounded and motionless.

Fu Zhen met his eyes, pinched his earlobe with his thumb and index finger, and squeezed it wildly before putting it down.

"I still like to call you this. Zhan'er sounds so nice. It reminds me of the time I spent with you."

Her tone was very easy-going, as if she were chatting about family matters, and Pei Zhan was unimpressed. With such words, he could be moved to the point where his heart was in a state of excitement.

"Why do you want to overlap? You have so many fans and everyone is surrounding you. My appearance is not a big deal to you."

"But among so many inconspicuous children, don't I still remember you?" Fu Zhen said with a smile, "Look, I even remember the bunch of candied haws."

Pei Zhan's figure suddenly shook, and his eyes were filled with disbelief. "You are real..."

This is impossible, right? She must have heard someone mention it, she definitely couldn't remember it herself!
"Of course it's true," Fu Zhen said, "I have a very good memory."

The thorns all over Pei Zhan's body gradually softened. He sat on the edge of the couch and turned around after a while: "Why?" Why should she remember him?

Fu Zhen laughed again. After laughing, she looked at him again.

Pei Zhan looked at the ground.

He still knows every detail of the bunch of candied haws that she snatched away. No, he remembered everything related to her clearly. But she actually remembered it, which was so surprising. Apart from the accident, there was something else - something inexplicable, which he decided to get rid of in his heart last night.

He licked his dry lips and picked up the cattail leaf fan again to fan himself. Wind can only relieve heat but not thirst. He went to find the water source, touched the cup on the table with his finger, raised it to his lips, took a sip, and then drank it all.

"This is it!"

With the tea still in his throat, the door that had just been locked opened wide!
The light from the sky poured into the room like silver, illuminating the group of people walking in clearly and the two people sitting and standing in the room.

Liang Zhi, who was about to speak, now stopped in his throat. He opened his mouth wide and looked at the two of them: "What are you two doing? Why are your faces so red?"

As soon as he said these words, Pei Zhan became even more irritated. His face, which was already quite light-skinned, turned purple.

Su Xing'er stepped forward and patted Liang Zhi on the back of the head: "The young man doesn't understand anything and his eyesight is not good. How can he have a red face? I didn't see it!"

Several elders cleared their throats under the threshold.

Fu Zhen stood up: "Mother?"

Mrs. Ning said solemnly: "I heard that you two had a quarrel. Come and have a look."

Fu Zhen met Pei Zhan's eyes and shook his head: "There was no quarrel. It was just——"

"Why do we have to sleep in separate rooms when there is no quarrel?" Mrs. Ning looked at the room and said meaningfully: "I bought your dowry myself. Why don't you have anything in this house when there was no quarrel?"

"That's right!" Liang Zhi stood next to Mrs. Ning, like a good-luck boy, "Aunt Ning, not only do you not have anything belonging to the fifth younger brother and sister, but there is only one pillow on this bed!"

Fu Zhen glared at Liang Zhi. Liang Zhi hid behind Mrs. Ning, but then stuck his head out to look at Pei Zhan: "Lao Wu! You old man is as smart as a nose. You don't tolerate others' magnanimity! You can't even get past this hurdle. You have people looking down on you!”

This is a mess!
Fu Zhen took a breath: "Mother, please listen to me first -"

"You might as well listen to me first." Mrs. Ning looked deeply at her, "You two are smart people, and you have made up your mind and cannot tolerate the interference of others. Whether you are arguing or not, yes Whether you want to go to heaven or go to earth, who can stop you?

"I only care about one thing. The people who escorted the people who were escorting the Xu family's old residence are already on the road. They ran away without catching them. There are still doubts about the eldest son of the emperor. The court will probably appoint the third prince as the crown prince next. But The third prince is frail and sick and needs more support from civil and military officials.

"Since you two don't have the intention to live together now, no one can force it, but you can't be irresponsible. Is it a small matter for the general to leave at this time? At this time, focus on internal affairs. Does it fit?"

Fu Zhen was speechless.

Mrs. Pei also said to Pei Zhan: "I mean the same thing as my in-laws. If you two really can't live in the same place, we won't stop you.

"But you two have to decide whether to investigate or not to investigate the following matters? Regarding the death of Mr. Ning, will you pursue it or not?

"If we pursue the case, one of you must withdraw, otherwise we will still be involved after the divorce, which is too unruly!
"outrageous!

"This is not the style of our two families!"

When Pei Zhan heard this, he looked at Fu Zhen subconsciously. It was not that they didn't know what they needed to do, but they never thought about not continuing to investigate together after they got together.

In other words, neither of them felt that it was a problem for them.

Public is public, private is private, they can keep it separate in their hearts.

But this hat has been clearly buckled down. If you insist on doing the opposite, you will be a little ignorant.

He looked at Fu Zhen and then back again.

Liang Chen looked back and forth between the two of them for several times, and then said: "What are you doing with your flirting? Fifth, the overall situation is more important! There are so many couples in the world who seem to be inseparable but still live together for the rest of their lives! Why can't you just grit your teeth and get through it? ?”

Pei Zhan glared at him, and Fu Zhen also glared at him.

Su Xing'er pinched the girl who owed her, and stepped forward and said: "I'm just saying that it's inconvenient to leave right now, but I'm not letting you leave! What Aunt Ning and Aunt Pei mean is that this isn't the end of the matter. After it's over, you guys will love each other." No matter what, I have nothing to do with you! When you leave in the future, I will be a matchmaker for you separately!"

Fu Zhen was squeezed and his eyes were dark.

This girl and Liang Chen have shared their anger for a long time now, and it seems that they are no longer on the same page as her.

The two of them were silent, but Pei Yu looked annoyed and bent his knees to kick the back of Pei Zhan's legs: "Are you mute?! Is Mo Mo Chi Chi a man?!"

Pei Zhan had never been so useless since he took over the camp from Kaixuan. He immediately looked back angrily, then looked at Fuzhen and said in a low voice: "I listen to her!"

Su Xing'er's eyes rolled around: "She? Who is she?"

Pei Zhan gritted his teeth: "You should say something!"

Fu Zhen raised his head and said with a smile, "Okay, whatever Zhan'er says will be done."

After his words fell, the room fell silent for an instant. Just a moment later, Liang Zhi's puff broke the silence!

Pei Zhan gasped in embarrassment. He could bear calling her such a name in private. How could she call her out in front of so many people?
But Fu Zhen continued: "Since Zhan'er doesn't want to leave now, then he won't leave. We will discuss it when he wants to leave."

The six people present all turned their attention to Pei Zhan. Pei Zhan couldn't stay any longer!

His face became tighter and tighter, his throat rolled several times, and he accidentally choked on his breath, triggering a series of coughs.

Liang Zhi smiled and patted him on the back: "Look at how happy you are! Don't worry, good times are yet to come!"

Seeing that Pei Zhan's face turned dark, Liang Zhi smiled and sat him down again: "Okay, okay, let's get down to business. Where did we just talk? Where were all the Xu family servants escorted?..."

The Xu family was only a hundred kilometers away from Beijing. Since they all boarded the prison car, the one-day journey by horseback was extended to two days.

After Jiang Lin took people to the Xu family's old house for a night visit, he left two people behind to watch the follow-up. Therefore, after Xu Yin was captured, the imperial court sent people to Tanzhou to capture the remaining criminals, and they succeeded without much effort.

However, because Jiang Lin and the others still triggered the Xu family's security ban that night, exposing their whereabouts, Zhou Yi and the guards hidden in the old house took action immediately.

The day after Jiang Lin left, a large number of people withdrew from Tanzhou. The two remaining guards were not manpower enough, so they had no choice but to keep an eye on Zhou Yi and several servants in their house.

It was these people who were escorted to Beijing this time.

The imperial court has already taken over this matter, and Pei Zhan and the others are only participating because they have important responsibilities in the camp.

Everyone just pays attention to these news, and life has almost returned to the original track. Those who have errands are going about their business step by step, while those who have no errands, such as Fu Zhen, are planning for themselves how to live the rest of their lives.

Since the palace incident, they have not sat down to exchange information seriously until now.

Now, in order to tie these two people down, everyone has to pick up these clues again.

After all, if the two of them must take over the investigation, it is not impossible to ask for this grace from the palace.

Going back to the matter, it was related to the death of Mr. Ning - whether it was over-care or genuine suspicion, they still had to find out the truth themselves before they could feel at ease.

After talking like this, they didn't leave until after dinner. When leaving, Pei Zhan and Fu Zhen saw them out at the same time.

Looking at the two people standing together under the porch through the car window, Su Xing'er withdrew her gaze and said: "What a perfect match between the two of you! I all blamed you. I blamed this and that one at first, but now it's fine. I'm really done with it. Let's see how you go up." Why are you crying? How many heroic men are there in the world? You still think he is not qualified to be an uncle!"

Liang Chen nodded: "It's our fault."

Su Xing'er added: "Whether the twisted melon is sweet or not, you have to twist it first and then you can't make a conclusion before twisting it. The days are still long!"

Seeing her meaningful look, Liang Chen said, "What are you going to do?"

Su Xing'er smiled slyly: "What do you think?"

Under her smile, a fine line appeared in her beautiful eyes.

But she was only in her early twenties, and she had worked so hard to support the huge Liang family in those years, so much so that she was in vain among women of the same age.

Liang Chen looked at her foolishly, put his arm around her shoulders and leaned into his arms: "I listen to you. I will listen to you."
