Invincible son

Chapter 150 149

On October 26, Hongzang disappeared.

The sky was very gloomy, Pei Yue got up early, and after a simple breakfast, he stood at the door of Xiangyun Shop, looking at the empty street.

He seems to be waiting for someone, but no one knows who he is waiting for.

In fact, Pei Yue himself knew that most of the people he was waiting for would not show up, at least not so early.

Although he asked Feng Yi and Gai Ju to guard at Luliuzhuang, as soon as Ye Qi came back, he would let her go to Beijing immediately, after all, there was still nearly twenty miles to go.

It has to be said that the emperor's hand caught him by surprise.Originally, according to his and Mr. Xi's speculation, Li Zijun's case and Pei Rong's case should be put together and adjudicated at the court meeting in a few days.The time he agreed with Ye Qi was on the 28th, no matter whether the girl succeeded or not, he would make the most reasonable response.

But now that the emperor asked the Ministry of Criminal Justice to try Li Zijun's case, there are many things worth talking about.

Li Bingzhong was not a nobleman who made his fortune by military merits. He was once a member of civil servants. He was transferred from the Minister of War to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and then he was promoted to the first-class Marquis of Fengcheng.Although he is a martial noble now, no one knows how much of his friendship with those civil servants is left.

Gu Fan saw that his face was not very good-looking, so he comforted him: "Don't worry too much, I told you before that my relationship with civil servants is pretty good, especially the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. When Taohua disappeared, the Ministry of Punishment also had a good relationship. You have worked hard, maybe that Gao Shangshu still has an impression of you."

There is no one on the long street, and the sky is dark in the early morning.

Pei Yue looked left and right, and then said in a low voice: "I'm not worried about the Ministry of Punishment, but His Majesty's thoughts are already obvious. He doesn't want to deal with Li Zijun. Throwing this case to the Ministry of Punishment is a signal. Gao Shangshu may see it in Gu Uncle doesn’t make things difficult for me, but will he violate the Sacred Heart? I don’t think he has the guts.”

Gu Fan gritted his teeth and said, "The way of bullshit checks and balances."

Pei Yue was taken aback for a moment, then laughed dumbly and said: "This matter has nothing to do with the balance of the court, Your Majesty just wants to beat me in advance."

Gu Fan asked: "Knock you?"

Pei Yue has calmed down, following Mr. Xi's orders for more than half a year, he already has a certain ability to analyze government affairs, and said slowly: "If I guess correctly, His Majesty wants to make me a Viscount, which means that he will not spare Pei Rong lightly. You Have you ever thought about it? Pei Cheng is already Dingyuan Bo, if I can be granted a title again, the generation of Dingguo Mansion will be a double title. The title symbolizes that His Majesty still values ​​the Dingguo Mansion, so it will naturally stabilize the hearts of the Founding Dukes, and will not make these people panic because of punishing Pei Rong."

"In this way, isn't Pei Rong dead?"

"No, but he can't stay in Dingguo Mansion."

"It turns out that you already knew it. No wonder you refused to go back to the Dingguo Mansion after staying in the capital for so long."

Pei Yue fell into silence because he thought of Pei Ning.

After a while, he said with a worried face: "Actually, I originally planned to go to the Dingguo Mansion in the next two days, and there are some things I want to verify."

Gu Fan, who was very curious, didn't ask him what he wanted to prove. He changed the subject and asked: "Since His Majesty wants to punish Pei Rong and reward you with a title, why does he beat you?"

Pei Yue sneered and said: "Since he is going to use me, of course he has to hit me first to let me know my identity and not to be arrogant. I guess Mo Moyun will force Pei Rong to resign from his title in Dingguo Mansion that day. Tell this Majesty rightly, he may think that I am a young man with a lonely temper, and it will inevitably be difficult to use, so he will use Li Zijun's matter to let me keep my own place and do my best to be the knife in his hand."

Gu Fan felt a little headache.

He has no interest in these things, and if it wasn't for Pei Yue's sake, he wouldn't even want to ask.

Before traveling far away from the capital, I was bored with these tricky things in the capital. In the end, I even gave up thinking about joining the army, and I just wanted to be a ranger who roamed the world with nothing to worry about.

"Then what are you going to do?" Gu Fan didn't care much about the straightforwardness and boldness of Pei Yue's words.

Pei Yue stretched his waist, glanced at the empty Qingshui Street again, and said softly: "If Li Zijun is just acting like a playboy like that time in Luliuzhuang, I won't do anything to him, at most I will make him pay more. Some money. But this time he wants to kill me, do you think I can return it?"

Gu Fan put his hand on his shoulder and said seriously: "I'll go with you, today I must make that bastard suffer enough."

Pei Yue responded with a smile, and called Deng Zai who was waiting in the distance, and said to him: "If Miss Ye comes here today and I don't come back, you can tell her to go directly to the Ministry of Punishment."

"Yes, sir."

Pei Yue looked at Gu Fan and said, "Let's go."

On the way, Gu Fan said in a bad tone: "After I heard the news yesterday, I wanted to ask my father to help you, but do you know? My father received an imperial decree the day before yesterday, asking him to inspect the southern border of Yongzhou. I heard that there was a banditry there. "

"Bandits?"

Pei Yue is a little sensitive to this word now, and Chen Xizhi's face will automatically appear in his mind after hearing it.

Gu Fan nodded and said, "I heard from my father's soldiers that it seems that some miners are causing trouble, and it should have nothing to do with those people in Hengduan Mountain."

Pei Yue was not completely relieved, because after seeing Chen Xizhi's madness, he knew that he could not use common sense to deduce this woman.What made him even more disturbed was that Taohua's mother, Aunt Leng, had clearly agreed, but after ten days passed, her information still had not been delivered.It was as if this person had disappeared after meeting in the Qishui boat that day.

Now that Mr. Xi is in Lvliuzhuang, he doesn't believe that Aunt Leng has the ability to steal Peach Blossom again, so why did she miss the appointment?

Seeing his ugly face, Gu Fan couldn't help feeling a sense of sympathy with the enemy, and said coldly: "Your Majesty really knows how to choose the time, and specially transferred my father out during these two days."

Pei Yue said indifferently: "In front of His Majesty, we have no secrets."

The transfer of Gu Liang means that Pei Yue's biggest reliance in Beijing is not there. Just because he is a young man and Gu Fan is a dude in the eyes of the world, what kind of disturbance can be caused in the Ministry of Punishment?

Just like what Pei Yue said before, Emperor Kaiping only needs to move his fingers a little, and he can turn into a thunderbolt and beat him, the concubine of Dingguo.

After arriving at the Criminal Department, the doorman who had already received the order led the two into the concierge and made them wait here for more than half an hour. When the tea had completely cooled down, he took them slowly to the lobby.

Gu Fan was angry, but Pei Yue was calm.

To play a full set, if you want to beat him, you will definitely use some means of boiling the eagle, he is no stranger to this.

Above the lobby, Li Zijun was already present.

Enemies are naturally jealous when they meet each other, especially Pei Yue is wearing a brand new robe, while Li Zijun is wearing a prison uniform.

Gao Qiuduan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, sat behind the case. He was about 50 years old, with a goat beard on his chin, and sharp eyes.

Pei Yue was a little surprised to see three other people in the lobby.

A man with a white face and no beard, it seems that he should be an inner eunuch in the palace.

A tall man, wearing armor, turned out to be a general in the army.

The last person sat on Gao Qiu's left side, at the same level as Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice. When Pei Yue saw him, his pupils shrank suddenly.

This is a young man under 20 years old, and he is wearing a prince's suit!
"Snapped!"

Gao Qiu clapped his hands sharply.
