"We drove all night and must arrive in Qianying County before the 15th." On the carriage, Pei Wuyan ordered the guards driving the carriage.

Yu Qingfeng and Pei Wuyan were in the same car and passed through the opened curtain. She gave the poor horse a wry smile of sympathy.

"Why do you have to arrive before the 15th?" Yu Qingfeng asked.

Pei Wuyan frowned and said displeasedly: "I asked you to look at the case carefully. Are you so careful? You skipped all the key points and only focused on the irrelevant ones."

This feeling was so familiar. Yu Qingfeng returned to her school days in a second. She didn't do her homework well and was scolded by the teacher.

Before setting off, Pei Wuyan also asked her what was the biggest strangeness in the whole case.

The answer given by Yu Qingfeng at that time was: Yang Siwan, the concubine of the small wine shop, and Sun Zhenping, the legitimate descendant of the county magistrate, had an inappropriate marriage.

At that time, Pei Wuyan's disappointment was palpable. Now, for the second time, Pei Wuyan was extremely disappointed in her.

"Sir..." Yu Qingfeng put on a pitiful and timid look, fiddling with the tassels on her belt with both hands, trying to take the opportunity to act coquettishly and divert Pei Wuyan's attention.

Pei Wuyan turned his head in disgust and said coldly: "It's boring for the groom to drive alone. Otherwise, why don't you go and accompany him? I think he will be more useful to you with your appearance."

Are you kidding me? On an early autumn night, Yu Qingfeng didn't want to sit outside the carriage blowing in the cold wind, shoulder to shoulder with the guard with a sinister face.

She quickly put away her coquettish attitude and acted like a student being scolded by the teacher, "I was wrong. I failed to read the case carefully. I hope you can forgive me and give me some advice."

"It is mentioned in the case book that Liang Xiaohua climbed Canglian Mountain on the first day of the lunar month, and there are rumors about the Fox Fairy in Canglian Mountain that the Fox Fairy only turns into a human form on the night of the first and fifteenth day of every month and haunts the fox cave.

Nearby. The rest of the time, this Lord Fox Fairy is just an ordinary red fox, wandering around the mountains."

Yu Qingfeng's eyes widened, "Mr. Pei, could it be that he wants to..."

"That's right, I want to try my luck at the Fox Cave and see if I can see the true form of Lord Fox Fairy. If I'm lucky, I'll ask him face to face if he is the real culprit in the family murder case."

"Are you kidding? How could there really be a fox fairy?" Yu Qingfeng blurted out, and then realized that there was something wrong with Pei Wuyan's words. He was suspecting that the fox fairy was neither a fox nor a fairy, but a human being.

The core of this case is not that Liang Lei used the name of Fox Fairy to cover up his crimes, but the real murderer, that is, the person disguised as Fox Fairy, used Liang Lei's name to cover up his crimes.

"Oh, I understand." Yu Qingfeng covered her mouth and snickered, muttering in a low voice to make fun of Pei Wuyan, "Fox fairy, of course she is a charming beauty. If Mr. Pei wants to kiss Fangze, who cares whether the other party is a human or a fox?"

Pei Wuyan heard Yu Qingfeng making fun of him, sneered, and raised his finger at Yu Qingfeng, "Come here."

"What are you doing?" Yu Qingfeng shrank back.

"Master Pei, I am very hungry and want to be kissed. Not only do I not care whether the other person is a human or a fox, but I also don't care whether the other person is beautiful or ugly. Come on, my personal maid Yu Qingfeng." Pei Wuyan continued to cross his fingers and wink at Yu Qingfeng in disgust.

Sit next to him.

Just right!

Normally, the heroine would be scared away at this time. But who is she, Yu Qingfeng, the anti-routine spokesperson? Come on!

Yu Qingfeng took a big step and sat next to Pei Wuyan. She wrapped her arms around one of Pei Wuyan's arms and rested her head on Pei Wuyan's shoulder.

The shoulders were not leaning on each other, but pain was felt above the temples.

Pei Wuyan used a finger of his free arm to support Yu Qingfeng's head, "Stay away from me."

"Ah? It's not you..."

"Sir Pei, I am not only hungry and unselective, but also moody and ruthless." Pei Wuyan pushed hard with his finger, "You'd better get used to being able to come and go as soon as I call. Now, don't touch me."

Yu Qingfeng looked at Pei Wuyan's red ears and backed away with a secret smile.

This male protagonist is obviously an innocent and shy little puppy, but he wants to pretend to be a wolf with a big tail. No, his expression is stiff and he is at a loss. He must be cowardly.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Yu Qingfeng laughed dryly and suddenly slapped her thigh, "Yes, there is no wind without fire. Since the legend of the fox fairy has been around for a long time, it must not be groundless. There must be someone pretending to be a fox fairy. If we go up the mountain this time, maybe we can directly

The real culprit has been caught. Mr. Pei is indeed wise, this trick is very clever!"

Pei Wuyan actually found it quite helpful. His stiff and helpless expression just now disappeared, and he raised his lips and smiled triumphantly.

What kind of anti-routine is this? The dignified male protagonist actually likes to be flattered?

Yu Qingfeng praised a few more words sincerely, wanting to confirm again.

Pei Wuyan accepted the orders and accepted them all with a smile.

***

After all, they were the guards of Dali Temple and the horses of Dali Temple. They were more willing to work overtime than ordinary merchants. The group actually arrived in Qianying County, Duanzhou at noon on September 15th.

Sun Qianyun, the magistrate of Qianying County, had been waiting at the gate of Duanzhou City early to respond in person, and the large procession marched towards the magistrate's residence.

The carriage stopped at the door of Sun Qianyun's mansion, and the group got off and entered Sun's mansion on foot.

Yu Qingfeng stood behind Pei Wuyan, rubbing her head against the local official's groveling and flattering look. Then she went to observe Pei Wuyan, but this guy actually looked very impatient.

Does the male protagonist only like Yu Qingfeng's flattery to him?

It seemed like special treatment. Yu Qingfeng was secretly happy.

"Fang Qingxuan didn't come. This old man is just like the legend."

Yu Qingfeng heard the whispers between Lian Shurong and Lin Ming in the rear. She deliberately lagged a few steps behind, no longer trying to flatter Sun Qianyun in front of her, and focused on the official gossip behind her.

"Lord Lian, the Fang Qingxuan you are talking about is the prefect who loves to play tricks?" Yu Qingfeng turned her head and asked in a low voice.

Lian Shurong snorted coldly and said sarcastically: "That's right, this Fang Qingxuan is the cousin of Master Taifu. Just like our Master Pei, he doesn't look down on his colleagues because of his strong background. Really, they are all

People of the same kind should cherish each other, right?"

"Which one of them has the higher official rank?" Yu Qingfeng had just arrived and was not very familiar with the official ranks here.

"Master Pei is from the third rank, and Master Fang is from the fourth rank." Lin Ming, who was different from Lian Shurong's yin and yang aura, answered seriously.

Yu Qingfeng was speechless. Pei Wuyan was a Beijing official, one level higher than the prefect. Moreover, he was here to review the case that Fang Qingxuan was responsible for. No matter what, Fang Qingxuan should show up to greet him.

It can be seen that this old man is really arrogant and arrogant.

However, it would be fine if Fang Qingxuan didn't come to entertain him. He would live in the magistrate's mansion, which was exactly what Yu Qingfeng wanted.

She was extremely curious and wanted to see for herself what kind of love myth was between the young master from the magistrate's family and Cinderella from the wine shop's family. How could it move the world and win the approval of the magistrate?

Naturally, Sun Qianyun entertained the three adults for lunch, and Sun Qianyun's wife personally entertained Yu Qingfeng.

In the side hall, the dignified wife of the county magistrate actually ate at the same table with the maid Yu Qingfeng across from her.

Yu Qingfeng looked at the sumptuous delicacies in front of her and at the magistrate's wife's meaningful smile on her, and she understood everything.

Emotionally, this girl also thought that she was Pei Wuyan's maid, and she might be taken in as a concubine in the future, so that she could give Pei Wuyan some comfort.

"Miss Yu, I look at you as if you are a wise, intelligent and sensible person. No wonder Mr. Pei would take you with him when he goes on business." Mrs. Sun smiled with her eyes like two crescent moons.

Yu Qingfeng smiled bitterly and waved her hands, "No, Madam, you are so complimentary."

"Miss Yu, did Mr. Pei say anything about this case?"

The matter of whispering nice words to Sun Qianyun was a thing of the past. Yu Qingfeng suddenly realized that the first priority was to find out Pei Wuyan's views and tendencies on the case.

"Well, as a maid, I really can't understand official matters." Yu Qingfeng pretended to be a pig first, and we will talk about it later if she can eat the tiger.

Mrs. Sun smiled and nodded. It seemed that Yu Qingfeng's stupidity had deceived her. She really thought that Yu Qingfeng was just a girl who temporarily confused her master.

"Oh Miss Yu, you are a blessed person when I see you, and you will definitely fly to the branches in the future. I heard that Lord Pei is not close to women, and there are no maids among the servants he serves. Lord Pei took a fancy to you, and specially came from the palace. The personal maid you brought back from the middle school must be taken with you wherever you go. It shows how much Lord Pei regards you."

Yu Qingfeng apologized, no, after the immediate mission failed, Mrs. Sun began to move on to the second mission.

Yu Qingfeng let out a long sigh and said resentfully: "So what if we look at each other differently? So what if we are in love? However, there is a difference in status. Master Pei and I will not achieve anything in the end."
