Invincible son

Chapter 12 012 [Background]

Chapter 12 012 [Background]

Standing by the magnificent main entrance of the Duke's Mansion, Pei Yue raised his eyes to look at the warm sun, it was around eight o'clock in the morning.

Pei Cheng stood in the middle, behind him was the head housekeeper Pei Yongnian, behind him were the stewards Li Rong and Qin Feng who were responsible for receiving foreign guests, and a row of clean and tidy servants stood with their heads bowed.

Pei Yue stood on Pei Cheng's right hand side, turning his head occasionally, pretending to casually look at Pei Yongnian.

This is a middle-aged man in his early 40s, fair complexion, medium build, slender eyebrows and long eyes, with a slightly masculine appearance.As the chief steward of the Duke's Mansion, this person has a lot of power in his hands, and he can represent Pei Rong's face when he walks outside. He is a distinguished guest in many mansions.When Pei Yue saw him, he remembered a kind of exquisite figure in his previous life who specialized in wandering among various forces. He was good at dancing with long sleeves, clever in means, and could not show his emotions or anger. Compared with Li Rong and Qin Feng, he was several grades higher.

The chief butler met Pei Yue's eyes, and only nodded slightly, neither showing a cold expression nor showing any kindness.

Pei Yue wanted to test it out, and suddenly showed him a very clean and sunny smile.

This was somewhat beyond Pei Yongnian's expectation, but the middle-aged man's face was calm, and his eyes were only a little softer.

Pei Yue turned around and didn't add anything to the snake. The head housekeeper knew that his mind was like a sea just by looking at his expression, and he was not an idle person.

The first wave of guests came a little early.

But when Pei Yue saw the six young men climbing up the steps, he knew it in his heart.

Most of them are the sons of the rich and powerful who are close to Dingguo's mansion.

Sure enough, Pei Cheng went up to meet him, grinning and said: "Yesterday, I thought, if you are not the first ones here today, you must go to the Martial Arts Hall to practice a few skills."

At first, a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes in fancy clothes scolded with a smile: "I told you in advance, we are here today to ask for a cup of Mrs. Tai's birthday wine, not to help you with work, so don't think too much about it!"

Pei Cheng stepped forward and punched him in the chest, and scolded with a smile: "Well, you crazy Yin, you said some sour words to run me against me early in the morning, what's going on today? Could it be that you stand here to welcome the guests? ? Then what happened to my Dingguo mansion? Father must not take my skin off."

Another boy with a strong figure said: "After all, your family has a high reputation in this capital. My mother said at home yesterday that she wants me to kowtow to Mrs. Tai early, otherwise she will beat me up." .”

These words made Pei Cheng even more happy, pretending to be angry and said: "Just say whether you want it or not!"

The young man called Qu and said, "How can you not want to? Brother Cheng, isn't your ancestor my ancestor? How about I knock one here first?"

Pei Cheng put his shoulders on his shoulder with a smile, and said, "Don't make troubles, usually you are the only kid who has more ideas, so don't mess around here today."

The young man surnamed Yin who spoke first glanced at the people in the Pei residence on the steps, first nodded to Pei Yongnian, then greeted Pei Yun, and finally fixed his eyes on Pei Yue who was wearing a brand new robe, and asked casually Said: "Hey, this one is a bit unfamiliar, Brother Cheng, is this your newly promoted servant? He looks quite upright, but he is a little younger and so thin, I am afraid he can't even carry a bucket of water move?"

These six teenagers are very close to Pei Cheng, and they know the affairs of Duke Dingguo's mansion in detail. Just looking at where Pei Yue is standing, he can guess Pei Yue's identity even with his toes.

The boy surnamed Yin had a bad tone, and the other boys laughed endlessly.

These people act like this, one is due to their dandy habits, and it is commonplace to hurt people, and the other is to help their good buddy Pei Cheng. Although they don't know what happened in the mansion these days, they are all used to seeing people from high-ranking families. The spirit of internal struggle mistakenly thought that Pei Yue had used some means to dare to challenge Pei Cheng's authority.

Otherwise, how can a mere bastard have the right to stand in front of the main entrance to welcome guests at this time of day?

If the time was advanced by an hour, Pei Cheng might feel very happy, so he would reprimand Pei Yue again.

However, after the conversation in the porter's room just now, Pei Cheng, who puts face very seriously, couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but he couldn't explain much in this scene, so he could only say vaguely: "Don't fool around, this is my third child. I don’t go out much, and it’s normal for you not to recognize him.”

After finishing speaking, he looked at Pei Yue again, pointed to the young people around him and introduced them one by one, and at the same time, he looked a little proud.

Third child, didn't you say that I need a team member?

Look, is this lineup strong?

The six teenagers are Yin Dao, the eldest son of Duke Qi's mansion, and his father is Yin Wei, the current second-class Qi Yunbo. Although he is inferior to Pei Rong's first-class Dingyuan Bo, Yin Wei is a general in the army who holds real power.There are also Liu Ben, the second son of Liu Guang, the third-class Wu Dingbo, Zhu Ding, the eldest son of Zhu Wen, the third-class Linjiang Bo, Zhu Ding, and Gu Zong, the eldest son of Gu Zhang, the third-class Yongchang Bo, Gu Zhang, and Jinchuan Hou in the Linjiang Hou Mansion. Cheng De, the eldest son of Jinchuan Bocheng, and Su Ping, the third son of Su Wu, the third Nan'an Bo, was inherited by Nan'an Houfu.

These six people formed a very close circle with Pei Cheng. Apart from congenial temperaments, the more important reason was that their ancestors were all among the 27 princes of the Nine Dukes who founded the country, so they were naturally easy to get close to.

With the passage of more than a hundred years, these nobles have married each other, weaving a tight and complicated web.

The teenagers present, if you really want to talk about it, you can find some relatives. For example, Su Ping's grandmother is Gu Zong's aunt, or Cheng De's eldest sister married Liu Ben's eldest brother.

Even if they themselves, without the aid of pen and paper, they probably wouldn't be able to figure out how many relatives they have.

Naturally, it is even more impossible for Pei Yue to know that after listening to Pei Chenglue's proud introduction, he is not interested in these complicated marriages, because this has been the case since ancient times, and there is no better way than marriage to deepen the relationship between these powerful people.

He was only interested in one thing, and that was to learn from Pei Chengkou that none of the fathers of these six teenagers was in the capital.

Because they are all powerful generals in the army!
Naturally, he did not dare to leave the residence without an order from the imperial court, so he could only prepare generous gifts and let the children of the family come to worship and kowtow early.

Looking at Pei Cheng who was surrounded by many young people talking and laughing, Pei Yue suddenly had a gleam of understanding in his heart.

Is this the background of Dingguo Mansion being the number one wealthy family in Daliang Army?

And Pei Yue also understands that this is just the tip of the iceberg, by no means the whole picture.

Suddenly felt a little sweat on the back.

Even though he is calm, mature and rational, he suddenly comes to this strange world, and the people living around him are all the "ancients" he knows, so he will inevitably feel a little contempt and an inexplicable sense of superiority.With a little trickery, Liu mama was settled, and a few words made Pei Cheng feel elated. If he said that Pei Yue didn't have some complacency in his heart, he would be deceiving himself and others.

At this time, he finally fully woke up.

Not to mention others, even Pei Yongnian, who is standing behind as immobile as a mountain at the moment, has an understanding and familiarity with the rules of this world, which is by no means comparable to that of an outsider who has traveled here for only a few days!

In the bright sunshine, the majestic Duke's Mansion beside him finally revealed a domineering and powerful aura.

However, Pei Yue knew very well that these had nothing to do with him, so where was his way?

Why can I live like a human being in this world instead of wasting my life in a daze?
Suppressing the restlessness in his heart, Pei Yue stepped forward slowly, bowed his hands to all the youths, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Pei Yue has met all the senior brothers."

Everyone also knew what day it was today, and even if they had 1 guts, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble here. In addition, Pei Cheng had just given a step up, so naturally they wouldn't continue to make noise.That Yin Dao is obviously the number two person in this circle outside of Peicheng. He looked at Pei Yue lightly, and said with a smile: "So it's Brother Yue. I haven't seen it much. I also heard Brother Cheng said, you are very honest and you don’t act like a monster in the house, which is very good. However, I hope you can do better. Brother Cheng is straightforward and doesn’t like those vicious schemes. If you let me know you If you are restless in the house, you will not be spared at that time, I need to let you taste the taste of Yin's family gun."

Very straightforward threat.

But in the eyes of these teenagers, Yin Dao's words gave Pei Yue enough face, don't you see that Pei Cheng next to him also took it for granted?
Usually, if you encounter someone you don't like, you will go up and slap them. Even if it is inconvenient at the time, you will find a chance to do it later. Why do you need to waste such words?

Pei Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, shook his head and said, "Brother Yin Shi's words are a bit outrageously wrong."

"How courageous!" shouted the sturdy Liu Ben next to him.

Yin Dao raised his hand to stop him, and his smile was a little more cold: "I want to hear it, what's wrong?"

Pei Yue said indifferently: "I don't know what the situation is in other mansions, I just said that in Duke Dingguo's mansion, the elder brother never treated me harshly, but instead asked the young servant to teach me some truths, and I don't have the slightest bit of resentment towards the elder brother Why talk about scheming? As for the second elder brother, you should also know that he doesn’t care about common things and only loves books. I respect and yearn for him very much. The gift of [-] acres of fertile land outside the city is only for the sake of this brotherhood. Although what Brother Yin Shi said just now, although he did not refer to it, it implied that our brothers were not at peace, and it was even denying the vision of our ancestors. Wrong? Brother Yin Shi, I said that you are very wrong, am I right?"

Not to mention that the young men were stunned, Yin Dao showed embarrassment, only to see Pei Yongnian who was standing behind suddenly raised his head, and took a deep look at Pei Yue's thin and straight back.

In front of the main gate, there was a warm spring breeze, and everyone was speechless.

After a while, Pei Cheng smiled and eased the atmosphere: "Brother Dao, is my third child not bad?"

Yin Dao was speechless, brother, am I speaking for you?
However, he also knew that Pei Cheng had such a generous personality, so he could only shake his head with a helpless smile, looked at Pei Yue and said, "Maybe I was drunk yesterday and said some stupid things, brother Yue made sense, but , I have no disrespect towards Mrs. Tai."

Pei Yue accepted it as soon as he saw it, nodded and said, "It's natural."

Although he forced Yin Dao to bow his head on the scene, his evaluation of the young man was higher in his heart.

Words are as sharp as a knife, but after all, they are small ears, without enough strength as a foundation, they are just castles in the air.

Pei Cheng didn't seem to notice the undercurrent surging under Yan Xiaoyan, calling all the young people to enter the mansion.

After everyone left, Pei Yun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said to Pei Yue: "The third brother is very eloquent."

Pei Yue smiled and said, "Second Brother's praise is just from the heart."

A pair of little foxes looked at each other, probably only they could understand the meaning in each other's eyes.
