Invincible son

Chapter 1121 1122 [Waiting for an imperial decree]

Nancheng, Dingkangfang.

Wang Chongyun stood in the corridor, holding a piece of paper that was widely circulated today, looking at the content on it repeatedly, as if he wanted to engrave every word into his mind.

The autumn wind is gradually rising, the fallen leaves are falling, and the afternoon sun passes through the branches and leaves, like golden spots.The atmosphere in the small courtyard was peaceful and quiet, but there was wind and thunder stirring in Wang Chongyun's heart.

He slowly kneaded the piece of paper into a ball in his hands, and said with a smile: "It's really a timely rain. I was thinking about how to find a suitable opportunity to start, and then someone sent this secret .”

The subordinate stood standing next to him sighed with emotion: "Unexpectedly, Pei Yue is also of the blood of the Tian family. The young emperor of the Liang Kingdom can tolerate him continuing to hold military power? Pei Yue is young and dignified, there must be many people who hate him, and they are worried that his achievements will be so powerful. There are also some people, and now that such a shocking truth is suddenly revealed, according to my subordinates, it is a good time to make a move."

Wang Chongyun was silent for a long time, but finally shook his head.

Although the subordinates were puzzled, they did not dare to ask more questions.

Wang Chongyun said indifferently: "Emperor Liang is young, but he has a competent father who not only cleared the obstacles for him to ascend the throne in advance, but also left him with many capable ministers. The secret rumor on this paper has just spread , Presumably Taishi Taige and that Lao Shizi Luan Yiwei have already put up 12 points of energy, and making a move at this time is tantamount to a sheep entering a tiger's mouth."

The subordinate was sincerely convinced: "This subordinate is stupid, not as thoughtful as the young master."

Wang Chongyun smiled, rubbed the ball of paper in his hand, and said unhurriedly: "Wait a little longer. Now it seems that the appearance of this paper may be related to Liang Guo's internal affairs. Let them use up their energy first. It's not too late for us to start."

The subordinate was a little worried and said: "Master, Pei Yue has always been scheming. If he doesn't take advantage of the situation to add fire to this matter, the subordinate is worried that he will retreat unscathed."

Wang Chongyun curled his lips, shook his head and said: "For any emperor, this kind of thing will inevitably become a thorn in his heart, and it will not be so easy to let go. Let our people be honest during these days. So, don't act rashly. After the limelight passes, we will find a way to arouse the suspicion in the Emperor Liang's heart. As for Pei Yue, we don't have to worry."

The subordinates bowed in response.

Wang Chongyun looked at the fallen leaves on the ground in the courtyard, and said with a sneer, "His weakness is not limited to Lin Shuyue alone."

……

Knowing what happened today in Luo Ting Mansion, Han Gongduan ignored the emperor's summons, and immediately rode out of Beijing with dozens of servants and guards, and proceeded quickly along the official road to the north.

He knew that Pei Yue had been training troops in the northern camp these few days. Although the main force of the Tibetan Front Guards was still in the northern border, there were still tens of thousands of elite soldiers in the camp.

Although Pei Yue will not go on the road of rebellion because of this incident, but no one can guarantee that the newly promoted Guild will not make drastic moves.On the one hand, his trip was to appease Pei Yue, and on the other hand, he tried his best to beat the side drums, so that Pei Yue could be prepared for what might happen next.

Luo Ting didn't say it explicitly, but there was a tacit understanding between the two.

Just three or four miles away from the north gate, the guard next to him shouted nervously: "My lord, look over there!"

I saw dust flying in the distance and hooves sounding like thunder, and hundreds of horsemen came rushing forward.

"Don't panic!"

Han Gongduan reprimanded in a deep voice, and then went up to meet him first.

When he got closer, he saw that the leader of these knights was the Duke of Wei, Pei Yue.

Pei Yue naturally saw the face of the person blocking the way clearly, raised his right arm as a signal, and everyone reined in to slow down.

The next moment, Han Gongduan looked behind hundreds of cavalry.

Pei Yue patted his horse forward, looked at Han Gongduan who was clearly relaxed with a half-smile, and asked indifferently, "Why did Mr. Participate come here?"

Han Gongduan saluted immediately and said: "Mr. Wei, there are a group of young people spreading rumors in the city today. I am worried that some misunderstandings will be caused. I wanted to go to the Beiying of the Beijing Army and explain clearly to Wei Guogong. I never thought that I would meet you on the road." , it saves a lot of work.”

The rank of participating in politics in the Eastern Mansion is from the second rank, but the Duke of the State is the Noble of the Super Rank. If the regulations of etiquette are strictly followed, participating in politics needs to pay homage to the Duke of the State.Of course, this kind of situation has never happened in reality, not only because the Eastern Mansion has the real power to participate in politics, but also due consideration of the reputation of civil servants.

In addition, Han Gongduan is more than twenty years older than Pei Yue, so saluting like this is enough to prove that he is very respectful.

"rumor?"

Pei Yue glanced at the outline of the capital's city wall in the distance, lowered his head and fiddled with the reins lightly, and said, "Master Participating in Politics is referring to the rumor that I am not a child of Dingguo's Pei family, but a descendant of Princess Qiyang." ?”

Han Gongduan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he realized that the young dignitary in front of him had an extremely fast and smooth information channel. He had just left Beijing, and he had already received the news and returned from Beiying.

Thinking of Luo Ting's previous admonition, Han Gongduan took a light breath to suppress the worries in his heart, and said softly: "Since Wei Guogong has already known about this matter, it seems that the lower officials are worrying too much."

The implication is naturally that Pei Yue chose to return to the capital first after knowing this, and he only brought hundreds of soldiers with him, instead of staying in Beiying to wait for the development of the situation.

Pei Yue didn't answer the question, and said with a smile: "My lord, you are more than [-] years older than me, and you are inseparable with the Luo in power. Isn't it a shame for you to always address me as a lower official?"

Han Gongduan shook his head and said, "Etiquette cannot be discarded."

Pei Yue didn't insist either, he just changed the subject casually.

Han Gongduan had prepared some remarks on the way here, but now he found it difficult to say, because Pei Yue's seemingly calm expression hides an indifferent and stern attitude.

In other words, things may not go as smoothly as he predicted.

Looking at the handsome face of the young duke, Han Gongduan thought for a while and said: "The lower official happened to be in Luo's administration before, after hearing about this, Luo asked the lower official to tell Wei Guogong, this must be a villain secretly , the imperial court is determined not to believe such rumors. Therefore, I hope Duke Wei can sympathize with the embarrassment of His Majesty and the imperial court."

Pei Yue said calmly: "Master Participating in politics, I don't know what I should do to be sympathetic to the imperial court?"

This sentence has a slightly harsh meaning.

Han Gongduan had taught Pei Yue's eloquence because of Pei Yun's beating back then, but today's Pei Yue no longer needs to spread his tongue, and the thick golden light on his body alone is enough to make it difficult for him to deal with it.

Even regardless of the military exploits he made at the border, just putting down the rebellion twice can be regarded as outstanding meritorious service.

Although Han Gongduan was not afraid of Pei Yue's power, he didn't have a proper argument at the moment, because the court would definitely not be able to come up with a decision in a short time, so he could only use words to ease the opponent's attitude first.

However, for Pei Yue who has suffered a lot, words are the most powerless.

Seeming to see Han Gongduan's embarrassment, he said lightly: "My lord, I am not an ignorant child, and I understand the duties of a courtier, so you don't have to worry that I will add fuel to the fire and cause unmanageable chaos. However, I Now I am very interested in one thing, that is whether the imperial court chooses to believe me, or take me down first and then have a clear trial."

Han Gongduan was shocked and said: "Wei Guogong, it will never end here!"

Pei Yue smiled, looked past Han Gongduan towards the direction of the capital, and said in a nonchalant manner: "Then, Mr. Lao Canzheng will wait with me to see what happens next."

After a while, more than ten riders appeared at the end of the official road in the south, galloping towards the crowd.
