Invincible son

The next morning, in the study outside.

The sunshine in mid-October already has a hint of coolness, sprinkled in the courtyard with fallen leaves, adding a bit of desolation.

Sitting at the table, Pei Yue couldn't use his right arm for a short time, so he could only use his left hand to draw on the paper.

He seemed to be thinking about some very important questions, the patterns on the paper were messy, and his brows were deeply furrowed.

Wen Yu stood quietly not far away, looking at the side face of the third young master whose life experience can be called a legend, and gradually a complex emotion that was beyond words welled up in his heart.

The past is like the wind.

At the beginning, she was ordered to bring Pei Yue in front of Pei Taijun, with the aim of exposing the scandal in the Duke's mansion to the broad daylight, and she did not have a different feeling for Pei Yue because of this.

As a spy of Luan Yiwei, she has always been sober, knowing that she is not worthy of a normal life.

But she never thought that the weak and difficult third young master was actually a piece of dusty jade.

Once you see the light, you can shine.

She couldn't remember when it started, but there was a lingering ripple in her heart.

It wasn't until Pei Yue had become the country's public and power, and even the commander of the Luan Yiwei had to avoid his edge, that she could muster up the courage to show her heart, but it was only as a pawn he placed in the Luan Yiwei. , dare not have more extravagant hopes.

Seeing Pei Yue's eyes slightly closed and looking slightly tired, she hesitated for a moment and then slowly stepped forward, raising her hand to help him pinch his temple very gently, while being careful not to touch the wound on his right arm.

Pei Yue was slightly taken aback, and was in a daze for a while.

Wen Yu has been by Pei Taijun's side for many years. Although he secretly bears the identity of Luan Yiwei's secret agent, this kind of considerate skill for serving people has long been perfected, and the strength is moderate, and it will not affect Pei Yue's thinking at all.

But the reason why Pei Yue was in a trance at the moment was not because of her skillful technique, but because she suddenly thought of an interesting thing.

After traveling to this world for many years, he has grown from a bastard son to the current real power of the country. He can enjoy the glory and wealth, but he seldom appreciates the comfort of being served by others.Of course, this is not because he wants to deliberately play equality in the mansion. On the one hand, he is too busy, as if there are always endless things to do, even if he stays in the mansion, he will worry about arranging various affairs.

On the other hand, it is natural that most of the beauties around him don't have such a habit, and he doesn't really like maids getting too close—as for Peach Blossom, although she is gradually mature now, it is hard for Pei Yue to imagine that this girl will take the initiative to pinch her shoulders and beat him. back.

A slight smile appeared on Pei Yue's face, and he said slowly: "It would be great if Tao Hua was as sensible as you."

Wen Yu was a little nervous at first, but after hearing this sentence, she gradually relaxed, and said softly, "Master, this is what a maid should do."

When he was in Dingguo Mansion, Wen Yu was Pei Taijun's most important maid, while Taohua was just a yellow-haired girl that no one cared about except Pei Yue.

Now that their identities were reversed, there was no trace of sadness in her eyes - even though Pei Yue couldn't see her eyes at the moment.

Pei Yue raised his hand and patted the back of her fair hand, Wen Yu obediently stopped, and moved to the side.

He glanced at the messy lines on the paper in front of him, and pondered: "The information you provided earlier is very useful, and now I have roughly verified the people on Luan Yiwei's face. However, there is one more important thing, you have to think about it." There is a way to find out the group of dead men hiding in the dark as soon as possible. It doesn’t need to be clear, it’s enough to be able to confirm [-]% to [-]% of the list. I will ask Gai Ju to cooperate with you and give you enough manpower and money.”

Wen Yu lowered his head and replied, "Yes, young master."

After thinking for a while, Pei Yue said calmly: "After Mr. Mo passed away, Chen An didn't have enough control over Luan Yiwei. I hope to gradually put some people in it. We should pay attention to the timing and measure of this matter, and we can cooperate with the investigation. The dead are united, but no one can suspect you."

Wen Yu's eyes became softer, and she said softly, "Yes, young master."

She didn't ask Pei Yue why he did this, nor was she curious that Pei Yue seemed to only stare at Luan Yiwei, but ignored the more profound Taishitai Pavilion.

Pei Yue turned his head to look at Wen Yu, who was bowing his head and bowing his eyebrows, and said more gently: "I will ask someone to give you some plausible evidence to connect the assassin with Xiangcheng Hou Xiaojin, you have to borrow someone else's hand Let Luan Yiwei find out."

Wen Yu knew that this was a great trust in her. In fact, these days, she vaguely felt that Pei Yue was planning a big event, but she didn't dare and didn't want to think about the secret.

After all, he was a spy who was carefully trained by Luan Yiwei since he was a child. Wen Yu quickly realized and said softly: "Master, you want to start a court dispute?"

Pei Yue smiled, and said lightly: "It's all about hugging grass and beating rabbits."

Wen Yu nodded obediently, and then said cautiously: "Master, I suddenly remembered something related to Dingguo Mansion."

Pei Yue said: "You say."

Wen Yu said unhurriedly: "Young master should know that there are eyes and ears of Luan Yiwei in the noble mansions of Kyoto, and Dingguo Mansion is no exception. Besides me, there are a total of 23 people, distributed in the front house and backyard. , They are all under my control. Now that I have come to the young master, they must choose another person to be in charge. However, I found out that there are still a group of eyeliners near Dingguo Mansion. Although there are not many people, I can judge that they also belong to Luan Yiwei. "

Pei Yue murmured: "Is this for monitoring you?"

Wen Yu shook her head, and said cautiously: "I vaguely feel that those people are following the eldest lady."

Pei Yue's expression gradually became solemn.

……

Three days passed in a flash.

Even though Liu Xian was furious and ordered all the ministries to seek the capital, the assassin seemed to have evaporated, and there was no trace of him at all.

In fact, it's not that Taishi Taige and other yamen are not careful. After all, Kyoto is a world-famous city with a population of one million. If the assassin is alone and hiding in a remote place, finding him is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

Dasuo Jingshi can't last too long, otherwise it will seriously affect the lives of the people in Kyoto, so after Liu Xian severely reprimanded Chen An, Jing Chu and others, he could only set a plan to strictly check the entrance and exit of the city gate and search area by area Strategy.

In the private house in Dingkangfang, Nancheng, Wang Chongyun paced back and forth with a dignified expression.

It has been more than two months since he came to the capital of Liang State. Except for testing Lin Shuyue with a piece of relic left by the Lin family, he has not acted recklessly and impulsively. Lurk in the capital.

"The assassin still hasn't been found?" Wang Chongyun asked in a deep voice.

The subordinate who stood aside replied: "Yes, young master."

Wang Chongyun asked again: "Is there any change in the court of Liang Guo?"

The subordinate replied: "It is still stable at present, but judging from the information collected from various places, some Liang Guo ministers believe that the assassination of Pei Yue originated from court disputes."

Of course, Wang Chongyun would not be idle all day when he came to the capital. Although most of the manpower was in a dormant state, he did not give up his infiltration of the Liang court.On the basis of those previous years of hard work, he secretly grasped the handles of some courtiers by luring a lot of money with one hand and threatening and intimidating with the other hand.

only……

Wang Chongyun said slowly: "Before leaving, Your Majesty specifically told me that it would be best to kill Pei Yue. If it is impossible, then we must find other ways, such as sowing dissension. At present, if Liang Guochaotang really Because of the infighting caused by this assassination, it may be the best opportunity for us."

He paused, and then said: "Xiao Jin, Su Wu and others all have reasons and abilities to deal with Pei Yue, as do the queen mother and emperor in the palace. In this way, as long as Pei Yue and those people are provoked Suspicious, there is a high possibility of turmoil in Liang Guo."

The subordinate hesitated and said: "Master, once our people attack with all their strength, there will be no turning back."

Wang Chongyun took a deep breath and fell into a long silence again.

The subordinates waited patiently.

The light in Wang Chongyun's eyes gradually gathered, and he said in a deep voice: "Notify all brothers, there are two things to do right now. First, spread rumors in this city, only saying that the assassin who assassinated Pei Yue was instigated by the Empress Dowager Wu of the Liang Kingdom. Pei Yue has something to do with the death of Emperor Kaiping. Second, mobilize all the connections we have and provoke Xiao Jin and Pei Yue to fight each other!"

The subordinate said seriously: "Yes!"
