Invincible son

Chapter 488 Chapter 487

at dawn.

More than ten miles to the north of Gulin Station, a group of men in ordinary clothes were lurking in the night.

One of them said: "My lord, tonight is the best chance. Don't you really want to do it? After dawn, they will continue to go east, and they will approach the capital in the afternoon at most. By that time, even if we want to make a move, we will have no chance."

Another person said: "Didn't you hear the meaning clearly just now? You can't do anything tonight, and no one can disobey the military order."

The person who spoke first had a rather upright Chinese character face. He shook his head, looked at the commander with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and sighed: "We have followed thousands of miles, and finally waited for this opportunity. Why give up? Really? I don’t understand what’s going on here.”

The commander said angrily, "Is it up to you and me to criticize you? Keep your mouth shut and don't say a single word you shouldn't say."

The man with a square face said in a deep voice: "The last general is not arrogant. It's just that when the Pei family son enters the capital, it is impossible to kill him. If we don't do anything now, are we going to watch him return to the capital intact?"

The commander was silent for a moment, then said slowly: "According to orders."

The man with the square face said regretfully, "Yes!"

As time goes by, the sky gradually brightens, and a ray of early spring sunshine rises from the sky and shines on the world.

There were no peeping figures around the Gulin post, and there was no trace of these people at all. It was as if they had never appeared before, but Pei Yue and Ye Qi had already left a mark in their hearts.

The horses galloped on the official road, and passers-by looked at the team of knights curiously, not knowing which nobleman the leading young man was, and they couldn't help feeling a little envious.Fortunately, this team of knights was not domineering, and even though they were in a hurry, they did not hurt pedestrians.

The distance of more than [-] miles is not short, but Pei Yue and his soldiers are all mounted on the horses of the Gaoyang Plain in the Western Wu Dynasty. Even if they deliberately restrained, they came to the city of Kyoto two hours later.

Seeing this magnificent city again after a year, Pei Yue had mixed feelings in his heart.

"Call-"

When he was still two miles away from the west gate of the capital, Pei Yue reined in and rode his horse slowly.

Outside the city gate is still bustling and noisy, with countless passers-by entering and leaving the city. In the open space at the end of the official road, a large group of people are waiting eagerly.

"Here we come! The young master is back!"

Qi Min shouted at the top of his voice, with an excited expression on his face, just like his expression under the big tree outside Green Willow Village.

He spread his legs and rushed forward, galloping to Pei Yue's horse, subconsciously wanted to hug Pei Yue's thigh and cry bitterly.

"Stop pretending!" Pei Yue scolded with a smile, and forced him away with a light kick.

"Master, I miss you so much!" Qi Min burst into tears, looking very miserable.

"I'm not dead, what are you crying for?" Pei Yue jumped off his horse and said angrily.

Having said that, he was still a little touched, after all, these people were his earliest and most loyal team members.

Qi Min stood beside him pitifully. In fact, he has made great progress in the past year. With the money transferred from the Xiangyun firm, he has created an intelligence network rooted in the market for Pei Yue.Among the first seven soldiers who were loyal to Pei Yue, Deng Zai followed him all the time, Wang Yong was in charge of the Shouyangshan Coal Yard, and the others also had their own duties. Because of the particularity of the stall, hiding in the dark, it seems that it is not at all beautiful.

But he doesn't think so, on the contrary he likes what he is doing now.At this moment, finally seeing Pei Yue come back intact, the excitement was not feigned.

Pei Yue didn't bother to appease the rascal, and looked forward, a large group of people were walking quickly.

He went forward and had a bear hug with the handsome young man who was walking in the front.

"Take it easy, you want to strangle me to death." Pei Yue laughed.

Gu Fan let go of his arms, looked up and down, and then said with satisfaction: "Fortunately, there are no missing arms or legs, or the little girl will faint when she sees it."

Hearing this, Pei Yue quickly looked around, but found no trace of the carriage.

Gu Fan said contemptuously: "Stop pretending, how could the little girl appear here, and how would she behave if word spread?"

Pei Yue chuckled, flattered and said, "Fourth brother, I haven't seen you for a year, and you've become more and more handsome."

Gu Fan said disgustedly: "Haven't you ever flattered me? Your words are too blunt and not sincere at all. But having said that, I thought you would be a different person when you came back this time. If you don't treat me as the fourth brother Put it in your eyes."

Pei Yue punched him on the shoulder and scolded with a smile: "If you say you are fat, you will pant. Why are there so many strange words?"

Gu Fan greeted Ye Qi at the back, and then saw the woman wearing a curtain beside Ye Qi, and immediately looked at Pei Yue suspiciously.

Pei Yue held his shoulders and asked as he walked forward, "When will Uncle Gu return to Beijing?"

Gu Fan wanted to ask the woman's identity, but upon hearing that, he had no choice but to answer: "My father is leaving at the end of the first lunar month, and he should be here soon. I saw the person you sent to call the front station yesterday. I heard that there is something wrong with the post station?"

Pei Yue said in a low voice: "It's okay, it's just a bunch of bedbugs who dare not see the light."

"Master, please greet me!"

Wang Yong led all the soldiers who stayed in the capital, and knelt down on one knee to salute Pei Yue.

"Get up, you have worked hard this year." Pei Yue nodded with a smile.

"Master Xie for your praise!" Everyone responded in unison.

Pei Yue looked at the more mature and stable Wang Yong, and saw that his face was no longer immature and anxious, so he nodded in satisfaction and said, "You did a good job, better than that guy Qi Min."

Wang Yong smiled honestly, and Qi Min next to him looked sad.

Gu Fan glanced around and asked curiously, "Did Mr. Xi return to Beijing with you?"

Pei Yue replied: "Sir, I have some personal matters to deal with, and I will be back in a while."

Gu Fan didn't ask any more, and said in a low voice: "During this period of time in Beijing, there has been a lot of discussion. Some people think that you have made outstanding achievements and should be awarded the title of Marquis to show your recognition. Some people think that you killed Ning Zhong without discipline, so I implore your majesty to punish you severely." For the time being, no one has spoken out among the courtiers, and His Majesty's attitude is also ambiguous, so you should be more careful."

Pei Yue suddenly looked into the distance, with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, and slowly said: "Don't worry, I have my own measure. You take my soldiers and Ye Qi back to the Zhongshanzi Mansion first, and I will return to Zhongshanzi Mansion later. Come back."

Gu Fan was about to ask, when he saw an inner eunuch of the palace riding a horse with a few small yellow gates, he hurriedly got off his horse and said, "Is this Zhongshan Zi Pei Yue here?"

Pei Yue nodded and said, "Exactly."

The inner supervisor stood upright and said loudly: "His Majesty ordered Pei Yue to enter the palace immediately without delay."

Pei Yue did not kneel down, but bowed and cupped his hands and said, "The minister leads the decree."

In the sixth year of Kaiping, on the fourth day of February, on a sunny afternoon, Pei Yue entered the imperial city alone.

The sun shone behind him, casting a long shadow.
