Chapter 230: Chapter 231: Buying Blood
Pei Huaian listened to Nanny Zhang’s description and guessed, “It might be a Hidden Guard.”
“Hidden Guard?”
“Yes, those with a black mark on their wrist, it can only be a Hidden Guard.”
“If I’m not wrong, it’s very likely Pei Chengye. I remember him also getting a test strip from Pei Haolan, and he has always been suspicious of you and the child,” Pei Huaian analyzed meticulously.
Shao He was at a loss for words, “Why would he do such things, as if he has nothing better to do?”
“So, what should we do next?” Nanny asked worriedly.
“Use my blood.” Shao He planned to cut her blood to get past the matter.
As she took out a dagger, rolled up her sleeve, and was about to let blood, her hand was held, and then the dagger was also taken away.
Under Shao He’s puzzled gaze, Pei Huaian handed the dagger to Ah Mo behind him.
“You do it.”
“You do it.”
Ah Mo couldn’t help twitching at the corner of his mouth, wondering why it was always him who got hurt.
His Prince is really… too considerate!
Ah Mo thought so but without hesitation, he cut his finger and placed it into the tube, then handed the tube to Nanny.
“However, just getting the child’s blood is useless, how could he get mine? He couldn’t possibly go find Chu Yu,” Pei Huaian murmured to himself.
Shao He suddenly spoke up, “Could he try to have you assassinated?”
“No, I am under house arrest now, and if something happened, the Emperor would surely investigate rigorously. I believe he wouldn’t take such a risk,” Pei Huaian dismissed the possibility.
“Since he dares to do so, he must have a way. Anyway, it’s not Xiao Linzhang, giving him some wouldn’t hurt,” Shao He said with a light chuckle.
Pei Huaian nodded, agreeing to cooperate fully this time. If Pei Chengye got his blood, it would finally put his mind at ease.
Meanwhile, Shao He, tired of all these troubling issues, abandoned her plans to sell the test strips.
A few days later, the sunshine was bright, and the hot weather made everyone feel irritable.
Pei Huaian was sitting in the courtyard drinking tea when he suddenly heard a commotion outside the door.
Shortly after, Pei Huaian’s somewhat cold voice rang out inside, “Come in.”
Ah Mo quickly walked into the room and reported respectfully, “My lord, several Princes are at the door, saying they have come to visit you.”
“All of them?” Pei Huaian sneered mockingly.
Ah Mo immediately lowered his gaze, “Yes, even the Crown Prince is here.”
Pei Huaian pondered for a while before speaking calmly, “Let them in.”
“Yes.” Ah Mo turned and left the room.
Moments later, footsteps sounded outside, and Pei Chengye’s cheerful laughter was heard, “I see that Fifth Brother here is not really grounded but rather seems to be cultivating himself leisurely. We brothers are busy all the time while he can laze around openly.”
Following him were Pei Jingyi, Pei Haolan, and walking side by side with him, Pei Siyang.
“Second Brother is wrong, Fifth Brother here alone is also dull, surely stretching his neck looking outside every day,” Pei Haolan said with a laugh.
This comment provoked laughter from everyone.
When they all came into the courtyard and saw the person sitting there, drinking tea and reading, they couldn’t help but click their tongues and shake their heads.
“I knew he was slacking off here. Look at him, not bored at all, probably he’d be happy to be grounded another month,” Pei Chengye joked good-humoredly.
Pei Huaian heard the voices, set down his book, stood up, and walked out, “Greetings to all my Imperial Brothers, what brings you to visit me today?”
“It’s all because of Second Imperial Brother, afraid you’d be too bored alone, so he called us brothers to come over to keep you entertained,” Pei Haolan explained with a grin.
“Thank you, Second Imperial Brother, you truly go to great lengths for me,” Pei Huaian said with a hint of sarcasm in his smile.
These past days, he had been pondering how Pei Chengye would manage to obtain his blood, and now it seemed he had found a way.
The brothers were invited into the pavilion to drink tea, and Pei Siyang, deliberately lagging behind to walk beside Haolan, glanced at the wall of the neighboring courtyard and whispered, “Isn’t the next yard Doctor Shao’s?”
“Exactly,” Pei Huaian responded without hesitation, as there was nothing to hide in this matter.
Pei Siyang widened his eyes in surprise, suspicion arising, he probed, “Why would you choose a yard here? It doesn’t seem like your style.”

“When I bought this yard, I did not know Doctor Shao was next door. It had been empty for a long time, and I only learned this recently,” Pei Huaian explained flawlessly, leaving no room for doubt.
Pei Siyang nodded, “Then why choose to be confined here, and not in your own mansion?”
“This place is quieter, and no one would think to find me confined here, also to prevent assassins,” Pei Huaian answered, completely dispelling any lingering doubts or suspicion in Pei Siyang’s mind.
As the Princes sat in the pavilion drinking tea and chatting, Pei Siyang suddenly suggested, “Why don’t we throw arrows into a pot? Sitting here drinking tea isn’t much fun.”
“Good idea, I agree,” Pei Haolan was the first to stand up in agreement, as he always loved having fun.
Conveniently, Pei Siyang had not participated in these activities for a long time, so he eagerly agreed.
