After Jiang Xi passed by, he was stopped outside.

None of the servants in the Pei family were brought over from the Jiang family, so they were naturally not familiar with him.

"This young master, does he have any posts from his residence?"

The boy stopped him. Jiang Xi was so angry that he couldn't care less.

He immediately asked someone to push him away, trying to force his way in.

Seeing that something was not going well, the boy hurriedly called for someone.

"Come quickly, someone breaks into Pei's house."

The servants of the Pei Mansion were all well-trained. After hearing this, they hurried out, each with a stick in their hand.

"Master, what are you doing?"

The anger in Jiang Xi's eyes was undisguised: "Call Pei Zhi out!"

She and her mother were so relieved that they entrusted their little sister to him, but they didn't expect that she would be treated like this.

If he had known this, why wouldn't Jiang Xi be willing to let his little sister come to Luoyang?

Pei Zhi was staying in his study at the moment. Thinking of Jiang Li's disappearance these days, he felt a severe headache.

He had been searching outside for the past few days, almost turning over the entire Luoyang, but still had no clue.

Now that I couldn't hold on anymore, I returned to the house. I wanted to squint a little, but as soon as I closed my eyes, the little girl smiled at me.

The green beard on Pei Zhi's chin has not been shaved for a long time, and his whole person looks much more decadent than before.

Hearing the noise coming from outside, Pei Zhi frowned: "What is happening outside?"

Shen Zhao hurried out to check and was surprised when he found that it was Jiang Xi coming.

"Fourth Young Master, why are you here?"

The people around him pointed at Jiang Xi with sticks and looked at each other in shock when they heard this.

Shen Zhao said, "What are you doing? Put down the stick quickly and don't hit the Fourth Young Master."

Jiang Xi looked very ugly: "Where is Pei Zhi?"

"Young Master has been investigating for the past few days... He just came back."

Shen Zhaozui didn't know what to say. He knew that the person in front of him must have known about the disappearance of the Lord of Rongan County.

Jiang Xi just said: "Take me over to see him."

Shen Zhao knew that this matter was probably going to make a bigger fuss.



As soon as he arrived in the study, Shen Zhao wanted to explain a few words to his master, but the Fourth Young Master next to him rushed in.

Pei Zhi subconsciously became vigilant and turned over to avoid it.

Jiang Xi took a sip and said, "Pei Zhi, you are really good."

Pei Zhi originally wanted to take action, but when he saw that the person in front of him was Jiang Xi, who should be in Qingzhou, he just wanted to take action, but he let go of his hand.

"Why did you come here suddenly?"

Jiang Xi said, "If I hadn't come over, I wouldn't have known that my little sister had been missing for more than half a month."

Shen Zhao spoke: "The fourth master's incident cannot be completely blamed on the master..."

Before he said anything, Pei Zhi said, "You go out first."

Shen Zhao knew his master's temperament, so he had no choice but to leave after hearing this.

Jiang Xi punched Pei Zhi without hesitation: "This is what you promised to take good care of my sister."

Pei Zhi pursed his lips.

Jiang Xi was about to punch again, but Pei Zhi grabbed his hand.

"I owe you that punch just now."

"The most important thing to solve now is to find the person behind this and rescue Jiang Li."

Jiang Xi originally wanted to take action, but was unable to move after his hand was grabbed, so he had to stand up bitterly.

"Pei Zhi, this is already the second time."

"A-Li is in endless danger when you are around her."

"After I rescue her, I will take her back to Qingzhou no matter what."

When Pei Zhi heard this, he rarely refuted it.

He has known since he was young that his parents died in controversy and war, and his identity is unclear and unclear.

Although his adoptive father raised him, he also specially brought him to the Jiang family to survive and hone his will.

There were batch after batch of people hidden around him, but Pei Zhi knew that although these people were trained for him, they were actually just his adoptive father who wanted to overthrow the regime.

In recent years, he has had little contact with his adoptive father, but he also knows that he is an extremely dangerous person.

His adoptive father naturally wanted to get something in return for his training.

Speaking of this, Pei Zhi didn't even know who his so-called adoptive father was.

It was only when he was young that his parents were rumored to have communicated intelligence to the enemy and then trapped tens of thousands of soldiers to death.

An accident like the Wei family had happened before, so the late emperor was extra cautious this time.

But with such caution, there was nothing he could do about the little Pei Zhi. He couldn't believe that his parents would do something like that.

When his father and mother were still at home, one of the most common principles they taught him was the need to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

Besides, he is the only son of the Pei family. When he is in Luoyang, the Pei family and his wife will not do anything treasonous no matter what their motives are.

It's just something that many people can think of, but they still can't help but talk about it.

Pei Zhi heard a lot of rumors during that time, and it was under such circumstances that he left the Pei Mansion.

He didn't believe that his parents were dead, nor did he believe that his parents would do something like that.

He wanted to find evidence by himself, so at such a young age, he headed towards the borderland alone.

He was young and grew up in a wealthy family, so he didn't know how hard it was outside.

When he was young, Pei Zhi had a completely different temperament than he does now.

He had been extremely good-looking since he was a child, and was spotted by traffickers. Knowing that he was a young man who had escaped from home, he kidnapped him.

Seeing how good he looked, he thought of selling him to the old man as a concubine.

Pei Zhi thought of many ways and finally escaped from that place.

But after that incident, Pei Zhi's whole temperament changed a lot.

It was when he escaped that he met his so-called adoptive father. The adoptive father took him with him, but always faced him with a mask.

Pei Zhi always felt that the man in front of him was inexplicably familiar. He wanted to take off his mask several times, but he was always noticed in time.

After experiencing this kind of thing a few times, Pei Zhi knew that the person behind him didn't want to reveal his identity to him, and there was nothing he could do about it.

And the person behind him seemed to know him very well, even his preferences were clearly understood.



Jiang Xi was still saying this, but when he saw the person in front of him was silent for a while, he thought that the words he said finally hurt him.

He coughed twice and said, "Pei Zhi, when you were at the Jiang family, you were really kind to my little sister, but now you have seen that there are only these countless dangers with her by your side."

Pei Zhi came back to his senses when he heard what he said.

It was rare that there was no rebuttal.

Maybe Jiang Xi was right. It was a huge mistake for him to bring people to Luoyang from the very beginning.
