Chapter 13 013 [Bad Guest]

After arranging all the teenagers properly, Peicheng hurriedly turned around, and guests arrived one after another at this time.

The male guests naturally dismounted from the sedan chairs in front of the mansion, and the carriages that the wives and young ladies of the various families took went straight in through the side door, and they got off the carriages at the inside of the Yimen. The daughter-in-law in charge of the Duke's Mansion led a group of maids and mothers-in-law to accompany her. After entering the inner house, Mrs. Li greeted her personally.

Taijun Pei is wearing a lot of make-up today, sitting in the Ding'an Hall, waiting for the imperial wives and the underage juniors from each family to come in to pay their respects.

Dingyuan Bo Pei Rong stayed in Dingding Hall, the main hall of the Duke's Mansion. The name of this hall was bestowed by the founding ancestor of Daliang, and the four characters "Dingguo Anbang" were written in the imperial pen, and a plaque was hung in front of the hall. It is a member of the Pei clan. A proud honor.

Although there are many guests today, most of them are obviously not qualified to be greeted by Pei Rong, at least he thinks so.At the 27th anniversary of the founding of the country, nearly half of the mansions have declined in the past century, either because of the suppression of the Tian family, or because of the unscrupulous grandson.Most of the remaining half are still holding real power in the army, and most of the patriarchs are not in the capital.Even if counting the non-founding princes, the martial arts giants who have risen in recent years, Pei Rong feels that he needs to work hard enough to personally welcome them, but there are only a few people.

As for those declining mansions, or those who come from the younger generation, with their own three sons, and Pei Yongnian, the chief housekeeper, are enough to welcome them.

Thinking of this, Pei Rong's eyes drifted unconsciously to Pei Yue's thin but handsome face, and those calm eyes.

All the servants and maidservants in the hall lowered their heads, so no one saw that the anger that was incompatible with today's festive atmosphere suddenly appeared in Uncle Dingyuan's eyes!
In addition, the people who greeted the guests in front of the main gate have been standing for more than an hour. Although occasionally they can go back to the porter's room to take a rest when no one is there, but Peicheng does not move, and other people are naturally reluctant to move.

Looking at Pei Cheng who was still full of energy, Pei Yue suddenly understood, this is the martial arts they often talk about, right?It seems that the physical exercise is really good. As for what kind of martial art it is, Pei Yue doesn't know, and the original owner has no relevant content in his memory, but what is certain is that it will not be the kind of sword that flies thousands of miles to take someone's head spells, otherwise the imperial court would not have to raise any troops.

Maybe... probably similar to the concept of the national art in the previous life?

Pei Yue is not sure, and there is no need to go into too much detail right now.

After welcoming a few groups of guests, Pei Yue reckoned that it was close to ten o'clock in the morning, and the number of guests coming at this time was becoming more and more important. He even saw Pei Rong come out in person to greet a powerful Marquis who was highly valued by the Tian family. went in.

Except for the brief exchange with Yin Dao and others before, Pei Yue stood obediently by the side, watching Pei Cheng and Pei Yongnian greet the incoming guests, with only a pair of eyes and ears, without saying a word .

A simple and old sedan chair stopped in front of Duke Dingguo's mansion, with only two bearers and a young attendant holding a sword in his left hand.

Which of the guests who came today is not dressed in fresh clothes and angry horses with great momentum?

But I don't know the identity of the person in this sedan chair.

Pei Yue felt a little curious, turned his head, and saw Pei Cheng's expression was very strange, while the head housekeeper Pei Yongnian's expression became very dignified.

Obviously, they all knew the young man with the sword and who was sitting in the sedan chair.

Then I heard Pei Yongnian say to Li Rong behind him: "Go and inform the master."

Seeing the appearance of these people as if facing a formidable enemy, Pei Yue was a little dazed. If it was said that the mansion was besieged by a large army, this kind of behavior would be understandable. Now it is just a simple and old sedan chair, so why are you bluffing them like this?
Not long after, a middle-aged man came out of the sedan chair and walked slowly to the gate of the Duke's Mansion.

Pei Yue noticed that the young man was always within one meter of the middle-aged man.

The age of the middle-aged man is a little difficult to distinguish, his face does not look old, but his temples are already gray, his face is gentle and indifferent, his eyes are as warm as the spring breeze at the moment, and there is a faint majesty that cannot be doubted.As for the young man by his side, Pei Yue didn't know what sharpness was before, but seeing the young man's indifferent face and ice-like eyes now, he understood it, and found it very dazzling.

This young man is not a good stubble, so many people's blood might be stained on that sword.

Before Pei Rong came out, Pei Cheng had no choice but to go forward and salute obediently, and said, "Please greet Shen Bobo."

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Brother, you don't need to be too polite."

This conversation made Pei Yue even more puzzled.

He looked very familiar and close, but Pei Yongnian had such a dignified expression just now, which was too contradictory.

The middle-aged man said gently again: "If it wasn't for the old lady's [-]th birthday, I really wouldn't be able to visit the door, but your father doesn't post posts, so I can only be a bad guest."

Pei Cheng was not quick-witted, and facing the middle-aged man in front of him, he felt more fear than intimacy, so he couldn't speak at once.

Fortunately, Pei Yongnian who was at the side bowed his head and said: "Master Shen, it's not that the master is rude, nor does he have the intention of alienating you, it's just that your status is different after all, so you don't dare to disturb you, for fear of criticism from the court, and even more fear of some people worrying about you. .”

These words made Pei Yue ponder some flavors, and at the same time admired the courage of the chief steward, who could make Dingguo's mansion and the middle-aged man who obviously had a lot of background in front of him jealous at the same time, even to the point where he needed to avoid suspicion. Who else is the one sitting in the city?

Sure enough, the middle-aged man glanced at Pei Yongnian approvingly, and sighed again: "Where did it come to this point, it's nothing more than usual, if I don't come for such a big event like today, I won't be able to explain to my old friend after all."

Pei Yongnian answered "Yes" and said no more.

The middle-aged man first looked at Pei Yun, smiled and said, "Yun'er, I heard from Mo'er that you haven't asked her to borrow books for a few days. Could it be that you have finally figured it out and want to abandon literature and pursue martial arts?"

Compared with the others, Pei Yun seemed much calmer and more relaxed, but his face was a bit bitter, and he sighed: "Uncle Shen, I will never forget your teaching, but Sister Mo'er wants me to write a review every time, Even if it is an article of a few hundred words, I have to write tens of thousands of words, the coursework is too heavy, I just like reading, and I don’t want to take the imperial examination.”

The middle-aged man laughed, looking very happy: "I will tell Mo'er these words later, and let her come to you to reason."

Pei Yun shrunk his neck, and only then showed a little childishness that a 13-year-old should have. He shook his head repeatedly and said, "You can't be so unkind."

The middle-aged man stopped teasing him and turned to look at Pei Yue.

This gaze was naturally very gentle, but Pei Yue was a little awkward, as if he couldn't hide his thoughts in front of this person.

While shocking him, he also built up a strong guard in his heart.

The middle-aged man looked at him for a moment, but didn't say anything earth-shattering. He just nodded slightly and said, "Very good."

If it were the children of other rich and powerful, even if it was Pei Cheng's unscrupulous personality, he could only nod like a quail in front of this person.However, Pei Yue didn't know the details of this person, and was a little uncomfortable being stared at, so he pretended to be stunned and asked: "What's the good thing?"

The young man with the sword frowned, but he didn't get angry, obviously he was following the rules.

The middle-aged man was not surprised, his eyes were warm and moist as if he was looking at his own children, and he said with a slightly teasing smile: "He has a good appearance, a good temperament, and of course, he also has a good display of courage."

Before Pei Yue could speak, he said again: "It's just a little thinner."

After thinking about it, Pei Yue gave up his plan of continuing to play tricks, because he couldn't see through the other party, so there was no need for a verbal dispute.

At this moment, Pei Rong also came out in a hurry, seeing the calm and calm figure of the middle-aged man, even though he was mentally prepared after receiving Li Rong's report, he was still slightly startled at this moment, and then he smiled unnaturally: "Lord Shen Come here in person, I forgive you for not welcoming me from afar, it would be an offense."

The middle-aged man put away his gentle smile when facing the junior, his eyes were far away, and he said indifferently: "Young master, take me to see the old lady. Today, I have to come and kowtow to her old lady for her birthday."

Pei Rong, whose name is Shaoshi.

Hearing the words, he showed hesitation, but under the gaze of the middle-aged man, he forced a smile, nodded and said: "It should be so, Mr. Shen, please."

The two walked towards the mansion, Pei Yongnian and the young man with the sword followed behind.

Watching their figures disappear behind the door, Pei Yue walked up to Pei Yun and asked, "Second Brother, who is Master Shen?"

Pei Yun said softly: "Silent Cloud in Taishi Taige, the most respected and trusted capable minister today."

Taishitai Pavilion?

Pei Yue subconsciously thought of Shi Ji, and this Master Shen seemed to have the character of a historian.

But if so, why are these people afraid?
Seeming to see the puzzlement in Pei Yue's heart, Pei Yun lowered his voice and explained: "The Taishitai Pavilion is in charge of all private affairs of the Liang government and the public. Both the army and the civilians can monitor them. Officials below the third rank can be directly arrested and interrogated. The stability of the capital and even the imperial city More than half of his safety is in the hands of this person."

Pei Yue's eyes suddenly changed.

That's right, it really is a villain.

But what did he mean by "very good" to me just now?

Could it be that the actions in Mingyue Pavilion moved the leader of Daliang secret agents?
