Capital.

street.

The night is already deep.

Tranquility enveloped the entire capital city, as calm as water. The people who had been busy for a day seemed to be asleep. It seemed that no one knew what happened in Yanyu Tower, and no one knew how many undercurrents were hidden under this tranquility.

Perhaps, most people in this world are just mortals who are tired of life and only want three meals a day. Not everyone can see the ferocity under peace.

"Let's go! Leave quickly! It's about to close!"

"Please, please, can you sell me the medicine first, and I will collect the money as soon as possible to deliver it to you?"

At this moment, a burst of noise sounded from somewhere on the street, breaking the original tranquility.

Hu Fei, who was sitting in the carriage, frowned, slowly opened his eyes, and listened.

"We are running a small business, so how can we get the medicine without paying for it? Besides, I don't know who you are. If you run away, where can I get the money?"

"No, no, no, the little old man has lived in this capital city all his life. The neighbors all know what the little old man is. I won't run away. This medicine is used to save lives. Saving one life is better than killing seven.

It’s a top-notch pagoda.”

The argument continues, and it sounds like one person has no money to buy medicine, and the other person has no money not to sell it.

"parking."

Hu Fei hesitated for a moment and shouted in a low voice.

Pei Jie, who was driving the carriage, heard Hu Fei's words, pulled the reins, and stopped the carriage.

Hu Fei opened the curtain of the car window and looked in the direction of the sound.

At the door of a drug store, an old man with shabby clothes and a stooped body was pleading to the owner of the drug store with sincerity. He was so humble that he almost knelt down.

But the drug store owner obviously didn't accept this trick. His face was livid and impatient, and he seemed to have reached the point where he couldn't bear it anymore.

"Go and pay for him."

Hu Fei said without hesitation.

Pei Jie, who was outside the carriage, agreed and walked quickly to the door of the drug store.

"I gave him his money!"

While the two men continued to argue, Pei Jie casually threw the money into the arms of the drug store owner and said coldly.

The drug store owner was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly took the money, his face beaming with joy.

There is no reason to be unhappy if someone gives you money in the middle of the night.

"Thank you so much, young master. Thank you very much. I am very grateful. If I have the opportunity, I will repay you with a spring of water!"

The old man was startled and hurriedly bowed to Pei Jie and said gratefully.

Pei Jie frowned. He wanted to say that he was not the one who paid, but he swallowed the words before he spoke. He waved his hand and turned around to return to the carriage.

The drug store owner happily pocketed the money and watched Pei Jie leave. But when he saw the carriage Pei Jie got on, his whole face couldn't help but turn a little pale, and he hurriedly bowed and saluted.

Because he recognized it, it was Hu's carriage!

The carriage did not stop any longer and gradually disappeared into the street.

The drug store owner did not dare to be negligent at all, and hurriedly walked into the drug store, took out all the medicines the old man needed in multiples, and stuffed them into the old man's arms.

The old man thanked him frequently and hurried back home with a lot of medicine in his arms.

On the carriage, Hu Fei continued to close his eyes and rest his mind. His mood became much clearer, at least he no longer worried about the unknown things that would happen next.

Chundie's eyes have been fixed on Hu Fei for a long time, because she never thought that Hu Fei would do that just now. In the past, the young master would never do such a thing.

She didn't know why, but she felt inexplicably happy and happy.

Outside the city gate.

Liu Jing, who had already disguised herself, stood under a tree, looking in the direction of the city gate, with a group of subordinates standing behind her.

Most of these people are old people from the Liu family and have followed Liu Bowen for decades.

"Sir, will Hu Fei really release Ah Er?"

A middle-aged man looked at Liu Jing and said worriedly.

"He is not a person who breaks his promise. Since he said he would let it go, he will definitely let it go."

Liu Jing nodded and said affirmatively.

"Oddly enough, this dandy boy doesn't seem to be as unreasonable as the rumors say."

The middle-aged man said hesitantly.

"Perhaps people are blinded by the turbidity under the bustling city. How can a person like Hu Fei be a bastard? I have never seen such a thoughtful person. Such a person, even if he cannot become a friend, can never be a friend.

Never make an enemy of him."

Liu Jing said with some emotion, remembering the scenes that happened in Yanyu Tower.

He was really grateful and very fortunate for Hu Fei's disregard of past grudges.

He's leaving, taking this secret with him, because it seems to be the only repayment he can do now.

...

Royal Palace.

Fengtian Temple.

"Your Majesty, this is what happened. Not long after the people from the Capital Military and Horse Department left, Hu Fei also left Yanyu Tower. I sent someone to check it out. The unidentified men in black were indeed gone. They seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

Same."

Colonel Mao stood respectfully in the middle of the hall, bowed and said.

"It's so shameless to actually take your maid to the land of fireworks!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, shook his head and said with a look of disgust.

"Then do we need to continue to track down the missing group of people? They seem to be the same group as the people who assassinated the drunkard before."

Captain Mao hesitated for a moment and continued to ask.

He felt that His Majesty's focus seemed to be a little off.

"Since they can disappear quietly under the eyes of your inspection school, I think this group of people is not just ordinary people. Even if they are traced, I am afraid there will be no results. In this case, there is no need to investigate. Let's concentrate our efforts and continue to keep an eye on Hu.

Come on, let’s see what the hell that kid is doing.”

"Have your abilities declined a bit recently? You've tried several times without success, and you actually let a playboy fool around. It seems it's time for the school to rectify it."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Colonel Mao and said with dissatisfaction.

After hearing this, Captain Mao trembled all over and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"I have neglected my duty. Please forgive me. I will never let you down again."

After kneeling down, Colonel Mao said with trembling lips.

"Well, I hope so."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted lightly and said slowly.

Colonel Mao lowered his head, moved his lips, but stopped talking.

At this moment, Pang Yuhai, the chief eunuch, slowly walked into the hall.

"Your Majesty, Luo Ping, the commander of the Military and Horse Department of the capital city, would like to see you."

Pang Yuhai bowed and said softly.

Hearing Pang Yuhai's words, Captain Mao swallowed back all the words that came to his mouth, and a sneer flashed at the corner of his mouth.

"Luo Ping? Why is he here so late?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment and asked doubtfully.

"I heard from Commander Luo that it was because people from the Capital Military and Horse Department were beaten by Hu Fei when they were arresting the rebels at Yanyu Tower."

Pang Yuhai replied softly.

"How come people from the Capital Military and Horse Department were also beaten?!"

"do you know?"

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately darkened his face and looked at Colonel Mao who was kneeling on the ground with some confusion.

"Your Majesty, I haven't seen it, but it does seem to be the case."

Colonel Mao raised his hands and nodded.

"You guys are so shameless to me! First, the school inspector, and then the capital's military department, all of them were beaten by a young boy, and each one of them had the nerve to complain to me!"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty, Hu Fei is the son of Prime Minister Hu after all. Even if he does hit someone, how many people in the capital would dare to fight back? After all, they would not dare to offend Prime Minister Hu."
