Invincible son

Chapter 602 601 [Brotherhood]

Shang Yu was once a soldier of Gu Liang, and although he was not promoted to a military position due to some special reasons, the rewards and salary he usually received were all given to his family, so the house and furnishings of the businessman were passable, not the kind of hardship and poverty.

After Pei Yue and Wei Rui continued to comfort her, Shang's mother gradually stopped crying.

Father Shang was an honest man, rubbing his hands together and asked, "Master Hou, my son... Shang Yu didn't embarrass you, did he?"

Pei Yue shook his head resolutely, and then told about Shang Yu's experience in the Western Territory, without deliberately exaggerating or concealing details.After talking about that part of the past, he said sincerely: "Second elders, please be sad and obedient. Please don't worry about your future life. Shang Yu is my brother, and his parents are my elders. I will give you old age. As for the young As for my younger sister's marriage, if the two elders trust me, just leave it to me to arrange, and I promise to find an honest and reliable husband for her."

Father Shang nodded repeatedly and said, "I can trust you, but I don't dare bother Lord Hou."

Pei Yue sighed lightly: "Compared with Shang Yu's contribution, how can I be called troublesome when I do these things. There is one more thing to explain to the elders that Shang Yu has made great contributions to the war in the Western Region. Your Majesty has already done so." Agree with my petition, posthumously confer on him the Deputy Commander of Zangfengwei, and give him the title of Jue Guoyong. The reward will come down in a few days, and I will let people wait here to accompany the two elders to receive the reward. Don't worry about the etiquette Question. What if..."

Having said that, he suddenly fell silent.

Shang's father and Shang's mother seemed to be in a dream. Although Shang Yu had already passed away, encoffining with a title was an honor that a merchant had never had before.Of course, the two of them knew that this was Pei Yue's intention, and they were about to kowtow to Pei Yue to thank him immediately. Pei Yue and Wei Rui immediately helped them up.

Pei Yue's expression was still serious, and that unfinished sentence made him panic.

It was only on the edge of his mouth that he remembered that Shang Yu was not married yet, so naturally he would have no heirs. Even if he persuaded the emperor, he could not conceal his offspring.

Wei Rui, who was next to him, suddenly asked, "Uncle, please forgive the junior for being impolite, how old is Ling Ai?"

Everyone was stunned, Pei Yue looked at Wei Rui with complicated eyes, and found that his eyes were extremely firm.

Father Shang hadn't recovered from the surprise, and subconsciously replied: "The little girl is 15 years old this year."

Wei Rui took a breath, and said sincerely to the couple: "The junior is named Wei Rui, and he joined the army at the same year as Shang Yu, and he has been in the same robe since then. Maybe he mentioned it when he came home. Me and Shang Yu He is a life-and-death friendship on the battlefield, if the two elders don't dislike him, the junior wants to marry your daughter."

"This... this..." Facing this sudden change, the couple didn't know how to reply for a moment.

Wei Rui cupped his hands and saluted, "This junior is willing to serve his parents for Shang Yu, please don't dislike him."

The couple were very moved when they heard the words, but how could they dare to agree? This young man was able to come in with Pei Yue, which shows that his status is extraordinary, and his future is even more limitless.

My daughter has a good temperament and character, but how can she get into that kind of high-ranking family with a humble background?
Wei Rui quickly saw their concerns, and saluted again: "Uncle and aunt, my father is just an ordinary fifth-rank military officer, and the people in the house are simple and honest, and your love will never be wronged in the slightest after marrying."

Logically speaking, it is definitely not his turn to come forward in this kind of matter, but Wei Rui is very assertive in major matters, and in some respects he is the person who is most like Pei Yue.

"Wei Rui, have you thought it through?" Pei Yue asked.

He didn't want Wei Rui to do such a thing on impulse, it would undoubtedly be the cruelest result for a businessman.Although he knew this subordinate better, but at this time he had to confirm it face to face.

Wei Rui said solemnly: "Master Hou, the last general never lies."

He glanced at the altar that was still being held by Shang's mother, and said firmly: "If the marriage is successful, I will choose one of the children to inherit the incense of the merchant in the future."

Shang's father and Shang's mother were completely stunned.

The atmosphere of this era is not as easy-going as Pei Yue's previous life. Except for the marriage of a man, there is absolutely no possibility of his grandson becoming a relative.

The most important reason why they closed the door to keep those matchmakers out was that after Shang Yu passed away, the two had only one daughter. If they couldn't find a husband-in-law, the business's incense would be cut off in their hands.

Now that Wei Rui can even see this and give assurances, they were so shocked that they didn't respond for a long time.

Pei Yue didn't expect things to develop in this direction. To be honest, he was quite surprised.

In the past, Gu Liang asked Wei Xiao to tell him that Wei Rui was the strongest among the five hundred veterans in the Southern Camp.During the time in the western region, he had been observing Wei Rui. In terms of military ability alone, he was indeed better than others, but because he was too calm, it was always difficult to see his heart clearly.

Up to this moment, Wei Rui made an extremely rare move, impulsive on the surface but actually thoughtful, still with that calm and decisive temperament, but faintly showing a hint of chivalry.

Pei Yue asked again: "What if your family objects?"

Bringing up the marriage on his own initiative is second to none. The most important thing is that Wei Rui just said that he wants to choose an heir to inherit the incense of the business. It may not be easy for the Wei family to accept this kind of thing.

Facing the gazes of the three people looking over at the same time, Wei Rui said calmly and firmly, "I can convince them."

Pei Yue no longer questioned, nodded and said: "You go out first, I have a few words to say to the second elder."

After Wei Rui left, Pei Yue faced the tense-looking Shang father and Shang mother, and said slowly: "To tell you the truth, I have always been very optimistic about Wei Rui's ability, and I believe in his character even more after today. The Marquis of Guangping had high hopes for him when he was in the battalion, and his subsequent performance did not disappoint. Now he is the commander of the Zangfengwei, and he will definitely not be just a commander in the future."

The words made Shang's father and Shang's mother worry about gains and losses, and Shang's father said: "Since this is the case, then this matter-"

Pei Yue interrupted him directly, and asked with a smile: "Don't worry about the elder. Although Wei Rui is 24 years old, he is not too old. I just want to ask you a question, are you satisfied with him?"

The couple looked at each other and nodded in unison.

Pei Yue said casually: "That's very good, please come out and meet my little sister."

Shang Xiaomei is 15 years old this year. This age is actually not suitable for meeting foreigners. It's just that the small businessmen don't have too strict rules, and Pei Yue's status is different, so a pretty girl came out soon.

There were tears on her plain face, she was obviously sad for her brother's death, and she felt a little shy suddenly seeing an outsider.

Pei Yue looked at her peacefully, and then said to Father Shang: "Uncle, I want to recognize my younger sister as a righteous sister."

"This is absolutely unavoidable. Lord Hou is so kind and virtuous, and the villain is grateful, but this matter is really unacceptable. It is his blessing that Shang Yu can follow Lord Hou. We have already obtained too much. If you are not greedy enough, you will be punished by the gods!" The old Shang was in tears, and repeatedly declined.

Pei Yue untied a piece of jade pendant from his waist, and stuffed it into the hands of Shang Xiaomei without hesitation, and said apologetically: "It happened so suddenly, I don't have time to prepare for it, this meeting gift is a bit shallow, little girl, just take care of it. After a while, I'll get someone to pick you up and your parents to the Marquis Mansion, and let's be sworn brothers and sisters in a serious manner, okay?"

Shang Xiaomei didn't dare to refuse or agree, and stood there timidly.

Now that the matter has come to an end, Shang's father and Shang's mother knew that they could not object, so they asked Shang Xiaomei to kowtow to thank him, but Pei Yue naturally refused.

"Master Hou, your kindness to the merchant is so great that even a villain will repay you." Father Shang said, wiping away tears.

Of course he knew the deep meaning of Pei Yue's move. Recognizing his daughter as a righteous sister was tantamount to giving her an extremely noble background.In this way, after she married Wei Rui, even if the people in the Wei Mansion felt uncomfortable, they would never dare to disrespect Zhongshan Hou's righteous sister.

In this way, all the worries and concerns in their minds melt away.

After talking with the middle-aged couple and discussing the matter of Shang Yu's burial, Pei Yue stood up and said goodbye.

Before leaving, he glanced back at the jar that Shang's mother had placed on the table, his eyes were complicated, and he sighed softly in his heart.

He can give Shang's father and Shang's mother a healthy old age, he can recognize Shang's younger sister as a righteous sister, add a very important bargaining chip to her fate, give them inexhaustible money, and prevent them from suffering in this life. Humiliation, but he couldn't restore those dead lives.

Including Shang Yu, Zang Fengwei killed a total of 720 people in the Western Region.

Life is like this, you can only move forward, you cannot go back.
