Invincible son

Chapter 206 205 [Wrestling Cup]

Pei Yue decided to meet in the side hall, this choice is undoubtedly a very bold decision.

The official rank of the chief historian of the Wangfu is the fifth grade, which is only one rank higher than Zheng Zhirong, the head of the household department who was scolded by Pei Yue in Shouyang Mountain, but compared with the latter, Chang Shi will get honored guests in most of the mansions in Kyoto treatment.

As the saying goes, the seven-rank official in front of Zaifu's gate, not to mention the long history of being able to represent the face of the palace outside, most people would not take it lightly.The princes of Emperor Kaiping's generation are all dead, and their descendants will naturally be downgraded to county kings after inheriting the princes.Today there are only four princes in Daliang, namely the first prince Lu Xian, the second prince Qi Liu Yun, the fourth prince Yan Liu Zan, and the sixth prince Xiang Liu Zhi.As for the Ninth Prince Liu Gui and the Eleventh Prince Liu Ci, they have not yet been crowned kings because they are still young.

Now that the crown prince has not been established, the several adult princes seem to have hope.As the long history of the eldest prince Lu Wangfu, Li Jinyan has long been accustomed to being flattered wherever he goes, so after entering the side hall, his face was instantly gloomy. If he hadn't considered the earnest instructions of the prince, he would have left in a hurry.

Pei Yue sized up this arrogant middle-aged man, but did not bow his hands in salute, but said indifferently: "I don't know why Li Changshi came here today?"

Li Jinyan was stunned for a moment, and even thought that he had heard wrongly, but the young man in the royal uniform on the opposite side looked calm, as if he had no idea how important he was as the chief history of the palace.

The anger in his heart finally couldn't hold back, he said coldly: "Is this how Zhongshanzi treats guests?"

Pei Yue sneered, shook his head and sat down in the main seat, pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Li Changshi, please sit down."

Facing such an opponent who was completely unreasonable, Li Jinyan couldn't speak for a while, and after a moment of silence, he narrowed his eyes and said: "Being famous is worse than meeting. I have long heard that Zhongshanzi is rebellious and regards etiquette as nothing. It is only today that I know that there are such rebellious people in the world."

Although the words were very harsh, Li Jinyan sat down with a cold face.

After the initial anger, he quickly calmed down and realized that today may not be as smooth as he imagined.

Pei Yue said indifferently: "Master Shizheng of the fifth rank, he saw that I, a viscount of the first rank, needed a big gift to pay homage to me. Looking at the face of the eldest prince, I didn't ask you to salute, but I regarded the etiquette as nothing? Unexpectedly, Li Chang Shi is actually such a person who abides by etiquette. Well, since you insist on bowing down, I can't stop you. If you say it, it means that I am disrespectful to the prince?"

Li Jinyan stared angrily.

Pei Yue met his eyes calmly, and said with a sneer, "You don't want to kneel? Then what are you talking about just now?"

Li Jinyan suddenly understood why this young man wanted to meet him in the side hall. Obviously, he was prepared to make him angry and messed up from the very beginning, including all his words and deeds afterwards.

After all, he is the chief history of the palace, and he has seen too many big scenes. He quickly adjusted his mentality, and said with a smile: "Zhongshanzi is quick-tempered and straightforward, but it's Li who is acting, so please don't blame him."

Pei Yue spat in his heart, he didn't like this kind of people with quick brains, because it was more troublesome to fool around.

"Li Changshi, there's no need to gossip, why did you come here today to find me?"

"Brother Pei is young and promising, and he has the trust of His Majesty. Naturally, he has a bright future. Li has heard that you have encountered some troubles recently, so he took the liberty to come to the door and is willing to help you solve your problems." Although he has already raised the importance of Pei Yue in his heart, Li Jinyan said after all. Some looked down on the other party, so the tone became arrogant again unknowingly.

Pei Yue ignored his condescending attitude, and asked calmly, "Oh? I don't know what trouble I have."

Li Jinyan smiled and said: "Brother Pei, why should you deceive yourself? No one in the capital knows that the Xiangyun business under your name is in great difficulty, all the shops are closed and closed, and even Shouyang Mountain has stopped production. I have earned an untold amount of money by relying on honeycomb briquettes, and the stalls are so huge that I will lose a lot of money every day after the operation stops, isn't it troublesome?"

Pei Yue smiled lightly and said, "It's unexpected that even the palace pays so much attention to something I made casually."

Li Jinyan's eyes moved slightly, and he said lightly: "Brother Pei is self-effacing. I heard that you have been helpless these days. Li admires a young hero like you, and can't bear to see you being dragged down by this business, so I want to help you. "

Pei Yue asked noncommittally: "Then how does Li Changshi want to help me?"

Li Jinyan said enthusiastically: "Although the palace doesn't have that much capital, Li just happens to know a few wealthy businessmen who are willing to pay for Brother Pei's business name and the coal mine in Shouyang Mountain. In this way, Brother Pei can get out of this business." In the quagmire, enjoy the wind and snow with clean money, without having to continue to worry about it, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

Pei Yue fell silent.

Li Jinyan strikes while the iron is hot: "Brother Pei, Li is telling you something from the bottom of his heart. You are a military honor of the country, and you are so young. You will definitely make achievements in the army in the future. Why are you obsessed with merchants? Now you are entangled in these trivial matters every day. , where is there still time to practice martial arts? Let me tell you, selling this firm for a high price is the most correct choice for you while the situation is still turning around."

Pei Yue suppressed the ridicule in his heart, raised his eyes and asked, "Then how much money does the other party plan to pay?"

Li Jinyan was overjoyed, stretched out a finger and said, "10 taels of silver!"

Seeing that Pei Yue's eyes immediately turned cold, he said quickly: "Besides, you can take all the silver in the store. They only want the skeleton of the store and the coal mine in Shouyang Mountain. Brother Pei, did you buy that piece of silver?" The coal mine only cost 3 taels, and the investment of the firm should have been earned back through the honeycomb coal business, so that you can easily earn tens of thousands of taels of silver, which is enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life!"

"10 taels of silver."

Pei Yue said with a blank face, and then his tone was suddenly cold: "Li Changshi, do you know how much money the briquette business can make a month? Alright, you don't understand what I'm telling you, go back and tell you what's behind your back. People, get rid of this idea as soon as possible, I will not agree."

Li Jinyan's mouth was a little dry when he said that, seeing that Pei Yue didn't give him any face at all, he immediately became angry and said coldly: "You'd better think carefully before answering me."

Pei Yue reached out to pick up the tea bowl next to him, his eyes drooped slightly and said, "Seeing off the guests."

Li Jinyan had never been humiliated like this before, and said angrily: "Pei Yue, you are just a viscount, don't be shameless!"

"Bang!"

The one who answered him was the teacup that Pei Yue threw out suddenly, smashed to pieces under his feet, and the tea splashed everywhere.
