Invincible son

Chapter 152 151 [Vertical and Horizontal]

"disagree."

Pei Yue's answer was simple and clear.

He stood with his back straight in the hall, he didn't pretend to be obedient like Li Zijun, but exuded a faintly tough aura.Facing Gao Qiu's question, he neither bowed in reverence, nor did he act like a junior, and he didn't even give a title of honor, just three simple words.

This seems a little pretentious.

But for Pei Yue, this is an attitude that must be expressed.

Since it was determined early on that his future career would be mainly in the army, it is impossible for him to be liked by civil servants. Based on the opposition between civil and military officials in Daliang, if he bows to Gao Qiu today and tries his best to please him, it will soon spread throughout the capital.When he enters the army in the future, who will serve a soft bone?His achievements in exterminating bandits may be falsely accused.

As for offending the other party by doing so, don't forget that Pei Yue is only 14 years old now, and he will soon become the youngest viscount of Daliang. Bigger than many.

Today's Pei Yue is no longer that helpless bastard, he has to kneel in front of Pei Taijun and act as a good grandson in order to gain a chance of life.

Gao Qiu also wanted to understand this point. Although his face was not very good-looking, he did not get angry, but asked in a cold tone: "Why?"

Pei Yue's calm eyes swept over Li Zijun, who felt tense for no reason.

I just heard him say without haste: "Li Zijun is the eldest grandson of Marquis Fengcheng, and I am just a mere bastard. There is such a big difference. How can I have conflicts with him for no reason? Actually, it was July this year. , Li Zijun led people to provoke trouble in Lvliu Village in the east of the city. After being refuted by me, he left in shame and took the initiative to compensate the farmer for the loss of 5000 taels of silver. Hundreds of people witnessed this incident with their own eyes. If Mr. Gao wants to Witness, just a warrant."

Li Zijun said angrily: "You are blackmailing! I haven't sued you for extorting money, and you still bite back, it's unreasonable!"

Pei Yue sarcastically said: "Master Gao is asking me now, do you know what etiquette is? Is this what the people in the Marquis of Fengcheng are educated for?"

Li Zijun blushed and pointed at him, "You fart! You—"

"shut up!"

Gao Qiu scolded lightly, and looked at Li Zijun with contempt in his eyes, he was really mud that couldn't support the wall, he had acted like a human before, but after being ridiculed, his true colors were revealed.

Looking at Pei Yue who looked calm again, Gao Qiu couldn't help but feel a little emotional, so he said in a slow tone: "Go on."

Pei Yue's voice was clear and gentle, and his words were well-organized: "My lord, you should know that a son of a powerful and powerful person like Li Zijun has never been willing to suffer. After hiding his face and leaving in the Green Willow Manor that day, he was naturally upset. How could he calm down easily? He just said that the servant met me by chance in the capital, and then made a follow-up plan. This statement is really ridiculous. I left the mansion at the end of March to go to Green Willow Village, and I only came to Kyoto twice in half a year. There will only be that once a month later."

He turned around and looked at Li Zijun, his eyes were like lightning: "I went to Beijing early in the morning, and there were only a few people around me. I didn't make a big fuss, and I didn't have conflicts with others to attract attention. How could your servant meet me so coincidentally?"

Li Zijun argued: "It's just a coincidence, what's so strange about it?"

Pei Yue suddenly raised his voice and said: "You'd better be honest in front of Mr. Gao. Let me ask you again, is it really your servant who met me in Beijing?"

Li Zijun said without thinking: "Of course! This is just a coincidence!"

Pei Yue smiled lightly, and said to Gao Qiu: "My lord, he is lying, so his words before are not credible."

Li Zijun looked bewildered, the white-faced and beardless eunuch in the palace looked at Pei Yue with interest, and the general sitting opposite him had a slightly unkind expression.

The prince, who had been watching quietly all this time, frowned slightly. He suddenly felt that this young man was really hateful.

Because he doesn't like people making such gestures in front of him.

Gao Qiu faintly felt that Pei Yue seemed to have dug a hole for Li Zijun inadvertently, but he couldn't figure it out in a hurry, so he could only ask, "What do you mean by that?"

Pei Yue pointed to Li Zijun and said: "This person said that his servant recognized me at a glance in Beijing, but what I don't understand is that I have been in Dingguo Mansion before March this year, and I have never seen him before." Outsider. After three months, I have stayed in Luliu Manor, and I have never dealt with the servants of the Marquis of Fengcheng. I don’t know who is this servant that Li Zijun mentioned, who can recognize me at a glance? "

He said innocently: "My lord, please take a look at my face. It's just ordinary, without any memorable features, and I don't have the slightest reputation in Kyoto. If it wasn't for today in this lobby, Can you recognize me at a glance on the street without knowing me?"

Everyone was silent.

Li Zijun's face was as red as a monkey's butt.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Gu Fan seemed a little familiar, and at the same time it didn't surprise him, but he still couldn't help laughing.

So he chuckled softly.

This laughter undoubtedly made Li Zijun wish to find a hole in the ground and get in.

The reason why Pei Yue wanted to bite the word "servant" to death was because Li Zijun had brought a group of experts to Luliu Manor to meet him. Of course, these people could recognize him, but how could there be any servants in the Marquis of Fengcheng? Such ability?
So one person dug a hole on the spot, and the other jumped in without hesitation. The cooperation was perfect and complemented each other.

Pei Yue continued: "Master Gao, Li Zijun has sent people to follow me for a long time, and even left eyeliner on the outskirts of Lvliuzhuang, so after I entered Beijing, his people could find me immediately, and only then did the following things happen. .This person is full of lies, just to deceive the adults. He has tried so hard to deal with me, how can he only send a few servants to ambush me? To tell the truth, although I am still young, I practice martial arts diligently with my husband Dao, he is not a young boy with no strength to restrain a chicken, it can be seen that he has ulterior motives, vicious temperament, and wants to put me to death."

"You are talking nonsense! If I want to kill you, can you still stand here?"

Li Zijun retorted loudly.

Pei Yue looked at him disdainfully: "It's not that you don't want to, it's just that you can't do it."

"You—" Li Zijun's eyes widened.

The lieutenant general sitting under the prince's side suddenly coughed, suppressed Li Zijun's words behind him, and then said to Gao Qiu in a neutral manner: "Master Gao, it is inevitable that there will be fierce struggles among the noble children. In the eyes of General Yimo, this matter is very simple, it is nothing more than a child's vindictiveness. Rather than listening to such long-winded and noisy nonsense here, it is better to punish Li Zijun to shut himself up for half a year as a warning to others."

This person's words were full of simple and rude military style, and he satirized Pei Yue face to face without hesitation.

Pei Yue looked at the other party, and asked lightly: "I don't know what the general's name is?"

The general said coldly: "This general, Li Dun, is the experience officer of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion."

Pei Yue seemed puzzled and asked, "I don't know why the general is here?"

Li Dun said contemptuously: "It is the practice of the country that all honorable affairs are controlled by the governor's office of the five armies. Since both of you are sons of honorable noblemen, why do you think this general is here?"

Pei Yue chuckled lightly, shook his head and said: "Li Jingli, if he is not in his position, he will not seek his own affairs. This matter is a criminal case and has nothing to do with you. You can just sit in on it. You need to know that Mr. Gao is the autumn official of this dynasty. How is it?" Does he need your advice to settle the case?"

"You are presumptuous!"

Li Dun was naturally very angry, but after Pei Yue finished speaking, he lowered his eyes and stopped looking at him.

He has no fear in his heart, because this is the Ministry of Criminal Justice, even if Gao Qiu wants to understand the holy will, it is impossible for an experienced officer to act like this in front of him, otherwise how will Gao Qiu manage the Ministry of Criminal Justice in the future?
Being an official also requires dignity.

Sure enough, Gao Qiu gave Pei Yue a complicated look, and then said to Li Dun, "General Li, sit down for a while."

After all, Li Dun dared not refuse the face of the six ministers, so he could only shut up angrily.

At this moment, the prince said: "Pei Yue, I don't like you."
