Invincible son

Chapter 450 Chapter 449 [The heart is treacherous]

In Pei Yue's perception, the emperor is a very complicated and even perverted profession.

Of course, this kind of cognition comes from the history books and various film and television works I read in my previous life, such as the conclusion that the emperor is the third gender besides men and women, that the palace and brothels are the dirtiest places in the world, and so on.However, this kind of cognition seems flimsy and ethereal after all. Only after hearing Mu Moyun's sigh at this time, did he deeply understand the frightening aspect of the emperor.

"The war in the western region was a conspiracy from beginning to end, and the lives of ordinary soldiers are insignificant to the emperor?" Pei Yue withdrew his fist, with a desolate smile on his face.

Mo Moyun shook his head slightly and said: "Lu Min hid it very well, we only have doubts about him, but there is no conclusive evidence, and His Majesty cannot be sure that he is the protector of the descendants of the Chen family in Hengduan Mountain."

These words were obviously not enough to convince Pei Yue, he retorted indifferently: "Since you have doubts, you shouldn't let Lu Min come to the western border. I know what the emperor is thinking, the Guping army is the weakest among the four frontier battalions, Wuwei Hou Ningzhong Even the mud that can't support the wall. The Peking Army's three battalions are the weakest among the three battalions of the Beijing Army, and the cavalry is even called the stepmother. Perhaps in the eyes of the emperor, the soldiers of these two battalions should have been eliminated. It's a good deal for me to see Lu Min's details, not to mention gaining insight into the minds of important officials like you, which can be said to kill three birds with one stone."

Silent Cloud remained silent.

Pei Yue looked into his deep eyes and said angrily, "But those soldiers don't deserve to die."

Mo Moyun turned around to avoid his gaze, and sighed softly: "They really shouldn't die."

Pei Yue said coldly: "Just now you said that our emperor's vision is unmatched by anyone in the world. Now it seems that it is true. He has already surpassed our level. In his eyes, I am afraid that other than King Lu Not human at all.”

Mo Moyun frowned slightly and said, "Pei Yue, don't be so childish."

Pei Yue sneered and said, "I know I'm naive. The world is not benevolent and treats everything as a dog. The sage said this thousands of years ago. It's ridiculous that I thought I was a loyal minister of Daliang. I worked hard for the people of Lingzhou. In the end It's just a game for the emperor."

Mo Moyun's face was serious, and he said seriously: "Which saint said this?"

Pei Yue collected himself and realized that he had slipped his tongue, but he didn't panic too much, and said perfunctorily, "I don't remember, maybe I saw it in an ancient book."

Mo Moyun didn't get to the bottom of it, he said with a disappointed face: "I'm telling you this today, not to make you resentful and give up on yourself, but because I don't want you to lose sight of the situation and go astray."

Pei Yue said slowly: "Lord Shen, don't worry, this junior is not that weak. I will still do my best in this last battle in the western region, at least I won't give up halfway. But after returning to the capital, I plan to beg for the bones to resign and go back to seclusion. Also, please help me to say a few good words."

Even though the two were discussing a very serious topic, Mo Moyun still couldn't help being amused by him, and laughed and scolded: "You are not even 20 years old, what kind of bones are you begging for? If Luo Ting hears this sentence, be careful that he takes it with you." Let the servants go to the Zhongshanzi Mansion to beat you up."

Pei Yue didn't answer. Although the cooperation between him and Luo Ting might not be hidden from the secret agent leader, there are some things that can never be admitted in the open.He thought of those people in the capital, and couldn't help asking with a complicated expression: "Lord Shen, is everything in Beijing okay?"

Mo Moyun said meaningfully: "Don't you know? If I remember correctly, Xiangyun Company now has a certain intelligence gathering capability."

Pei Yue frowned and said, "Master Shen, is this boring? You are such a big man in the emperor's heart, and you have tens of thousands of elite spies under your command. You have to watch the two capitals of Daliang, one mansion and thirteen prefectures, and you have to watch civil and military affairs for the emperor." Baiguan, you are too busy all day, why waste your energy on my small business?"

Mo Moyun smiled and said: "Small business? Xiangyun Company sits on the Shouyang Mountain natural coal mine, exclusively controls the supply of honeycomb coal in Kyoto, and eats nearly half of the share that originally belonged to Qibao Pavilion, and has transformed into a top-ranking company in Daliang. Just a small business? Pei Yue, if I don't keep an eye on you, do you think His Majesty will be at ease?"

As if a haze was hanging over his heart, Pei Yue tried his best to calm down, and said calmly: "Since the emperor suspects that I am Chen Qingchen's son, how dare you let me get involved in the military power? The relationship between Chen Qingchen and the late emperor is self-evident. In other words, am I not the son of the late emperor? Is he too confident in doing so?"

Mo Moyun hesitated for a moment, and finally said frankly: "You are not from the blood of the Pei family. At first, only Mrs. Pei and Gu Liang should know about it. Later, I guessed that you have nothing to do with the Pei family. Your Majesty should have known about it at that time." I understand, that's why I took the opportunity of your meritorious service in suppressing thieves to confer you the title of Zhongshanzi. If you let Chen Xizhi go, His Majesty will naturally think that this is a bitter trick played by you. Let you really lead the Tibetan front guard, and even give you military power again and again, saying In the end, it’s still the same as dealing with Lu Min.”

Pei Yue gasped.

Seeing that he understood, Mo Moyun smiled wryly and said: "I said before that His Majesty has a very high vision and powerful methods. Even if he suspects that you are the blood of the late emperor, he will not let people kill you directly. Instead, he will continue to give you weight. Until you can't help but jump out."

Pei Yue said in a deep voice: "Then follow the clues and wipe out all the officials in the court who are related to the events of the year?"

Mo Moyun nodded and said: "That's it."

Pei Yue only felt that he was simply unreasonable, he would do anything to achieve his goal, he didn't care how many people would die in the process, all he wanted was the final victory.

Mo Moyun said again: "Before I left Beijing this time, His Majesty finally dispelled his doubts about you and ordered me not to keep staring at you. Although he still can't confirm that you are the descendant of an old friend of Mr. Pei, as long as you are with me The Chen family has nothing to do with the late Emperor, so he would not give up on a capable and young star general like you."

Pei Yue reacted very quickly, and said in a complicated tone: "Because I killed Chen Xizhi."

Mo Moyun nodded and said: "That's right, you killed Chen Xizhi and helped Tang Youzhi defeat Xie Lin on the northern front, so His Majesty really trusts you."

Pei Yue sneered and said, "It's really hard to gain this trust. Master Shen, I want to ask about Lu Min's story."

Mo Moyun looked at him puzzled, and asked, "Lu Min's story?"

Pei Yue suppressed the surging heart, and said calmly: "He is a first-class prince, and he is also the right military aircraft of the Western Mansion. He is only one step away from one person under ten thousand people. I don't understand why he came here. step."

The north wind carried a chill and blew across the quiet city wall in the afternoon, and the silent cloud was silent for a long time.
