After rebirth, I became a national teacher

The other concubines and illegitimate children in the backyard of the Jingnan Marquis's mansion were also brought over crying and screaming.

Everyone's eyes were filled with fear and despair, the sky had collapsed in Jingnan Marquis's Mansion!

The wealth and glory that they had fought so hard for in the past vanished in an instant, and they will also fall into an irretrievable situation along with the sinking ship of Jingnan Marquis' Mansion.

Pei Xuan endured hunger and cold, hiding outside for the entire night, fearing that he would be caught by patrolling soldiers.

After the breakfast stalls were set up, he quickly went to buy some steamed buns to fill his stomach.

However, because he gave out gold ingots, the vendor had no way of making the change, which caused quite a stir and he was even targeted by some malicious thugs.

Although the capital city is under the feet of the emperor, those ruffians are very accurate in judging people when they take action.

A few thugs followed him for a long time. Although he was dressed in silk and satin, he looked nervous and furtive, and always avoided patrolling soldiers. They immediately concluded that there was something wrong with his identity.

So, several people rushed forward and shouted angrily:

"Finally I caught you! You little bastard! How dare you steal our boss's money!"

"Hand over our boss's gold now, or I'll send you to see the authorities!"

Pei Xuan was stunned at first, then he became angry and frightened.

"You are talking nonsense. Who stole your money?"

"You're not going to hand it over, right? Then go see the official directly!"

A few thugs were about to pull him away.

Pei Xuan was extremely scared.

He couldn't go back to the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion. That money was the capital he would rely on for survival in the future. If he handed it over, he would be finished.

But if he doesn't hand it over, and these people really send him to see the authorities, and if they take him back to the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion, he'll be finished!

Pei Xuan subconsciously ran away, and several thugs chased him closely.

It was already noon, and there were many pedestrians and vehicles on the street. Pei Xuan and his friends' chase immediately caused a small-scale riot.

Just as he was about to be caught up, a carriage drove towards him. Pei Xuan saw the family emblem on the carriage and immediately felt like he had grabbed a life-saving straw and shouted:

"Help! I'm a relative of the Zhang family, please save me!"

It turned out that the carriage had the Zhang family's emblem on it.

In this desperate situation, Pei Xuan didn't care whether he would be taken to the government by the Zhang family. He had to get on the carriage first.

The Zhang family's carriage driver immediately stopped the carriage.

After all, it was in the capital, and if someone was hurt, it would easily lead to impeachment by the censor.

People like the direct branch of the Zhang family who value their reputation will naturally try their best to avoid such troubles.

"what happened?"

A familiar middle-aged man's voice came from the carriage.

"Master, there is a kid outside who claims to be a relative of our Zhang family and is being chased by someone."

Zhang Jinghong opened the car door, looked outside, and saw Pei Xuan.

He had a good memory, so he naturally had an impression of Pei Xuan.

At the beginning, the child's sister went to Cihang Temple to practice in place of Jin Ge'er. As compensation, the child was originally going to be taken to the Zhang family to be taught personally by his third brother.

Why are you here now?

Thinking of the current situation in the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion and the identity of the child, many thoughts flashed through Zhang Jinghong's mind and he quickly made up his mind.

"Tell him to come up."

he ordered.

Pei Xuan was quickly invited into the carriage by the coachman.

When those malicious ruffians saw that he was taken in by the carriage of a noble family, they felt something was wrong and quickly slipped away into the crowd.

Pei Xuan got into the car and realized that it was Zhang Jinghong who saved him. He felt a little embarrassed.

My stepmother and the Zhang family's direct branch had long fallen out over Pei Jin's matter.

In order to please that vicious woman Zhang, he refused the Zhang family's care and stood firmly on Zhang's side.

"Thank you, uncle."

Zhang Jinghong waved his hand without saying anything more and took him directly back to Zhang Mansion.

Not long after, Pei Jin came over surrounded by servants.
