Invincible son

Sifang Pavilion, the main hall.

Tao Hua stood behind Pei Hou, quietly looking at the luxuriously dressed girl.

Young, about sixteen or seventeen years old, slender, with light makeup.Perhaps because of the characteristics of the water and soil in the south, her skin is very fair, her appearance has gradually grown, and her facial features are very beautiful, especially those clean and clear eyes, which are charming and moving between glances.

Taohua compares secretly, this girl is not as good-looking as Miss Gu's, she is also inferior to Sister Lin, and she can't compare with Sister Ye's temperament, so she can't help but feel relieved.

Xu Churong didn't know that the little girl on the opposite side was evaluating her, and the two girl girls standing behind her lowered their heads and lowered their eyebrows, not daring to look at Pei Yue at all.

Pei Yue asked straight to the point: "Miss Xu is here today to inquire about the crime?"

Xu Churong said indifferently: "Ask the crime? What is the crime of the Marquis of Zhongshan?"

Pei Yue didn't lie to Sheng Duanming, he and Xu Churong did only meet once, and he didn't leave a deep impression on him at that time.One is because Xu Churong was dressed in men's clothes that time, although he could see that he looked good, but the beauties in his mansion had already raised his aesthetic standards, so he couldn't be so obsessed with seeing a girl.The two are that Pei Yue can always be clear about some principled issues. If Lin Shuyue hadn't been killed by her relatives and fled to Lingzhou, he would definitely not have any relationship with her.

When I saw him today, Xu Churong, who had changed into a turquoise dress, surprised him a little, but that was all.

Seeing that she was deliberately making a peaceful gesture at this moment, Pei Yue said frankly: "Back then in Daliang Capital, a group of ignorant young people made Miss Xu a little embarrassed. I thought you would hold grudges. Now I come to your Land, I will naturally feel that you are here to settle accounts today, but I didn't expect that the Marquis misunderstood the girl."

Xu Churong was originally determined to keep calm, but Pei Yue's words almost broke her.

Looking at the young man with a slight smile on the opposite side, she tried her best to keep calm, and said slowly: "Marquis Zhongshan, do you think there was no problem with my handling at that time? I went to Qinyuan with the guards and there was nothing wrong with it. What you did was a provocation by the rich and powerful children of Beiliang, and my guards were forced to deal with it. In the end, you downplayed the big thing and turned it into a small one, have you ever respected the Great Zhou Mission?"

Pei Yue smiled, and said calmly: "Five days ago, a group of young people from your country yelled outside the mission's residence for more than half an hour, and no one stood up to stop it from the beginning to the end."

Xu Churong was at a loss for words.

She suddenly remembered the negotiation that uncle Xu Ziping couldn't let go of. She had only heard other people's descriptions before, and she didn't have a deep understanding of Pei Yue's sharp words. Today, she knew the power of the other party face to face.

Pei Yue accepted it when he saw it, and said leisurely: "Miss Xu, I don't know what capacity you are here today, and I don't want to waste time guessing your purpose. If you want to argue with me, I don't think you have this eloquence. Of course, there is no need to do anything. If you want to relay something for your father, I suggest that we make a long story short."

Even though the two maids didn't dare to look at Pei Yue due to etiquette, they couldn't help being angry for their young lady at this moment.

When did the dignified chief minister's most beloved jewel in the palm of his hand, a girl from heaven whom almost no one would dare to mess with in Jian'an City, ever encountered such a contemptuous attitude? …

Xu Churong said coldly: "Don't think I don't know what you want to do."

Pei Yue said curiously: "Ms. Xu please enlighten me."

Xu Churong calmed down, and said calmly: "Actually, you don't care whether the marriage is successful or not, because as long as the Emperor of Beiliang has not died, no one here will hurt your life. What you want to do most is to provoke The civil strife in the Great Zhou made them kill each other, the court was torn apart, and the army had different ideas."

Pei Yue said calmly, "So that's how it is."

Xu Churong snorted softly, and continued: "Whether you were injured for real or fake, this matter will definitely cause very serious consequences, and then further intensify the differences within the imperial court."

"Why?"

"I don't know the origin of that assassin, but I think he is definitely not an ordinary scumbag. Not only that, those powerful children who came to you to discuss with you at that time would also be in trouble. If the court pursues it, many people will be punished , after all, you are seriously injured, although I don't think you look like you are in danger now."

Pei Yue applauded lightly, and praised: "Miss Xu is very smart indeed."

Xu Churong suddenly smiled, and said frankly: "A few days ago, there was a fierce quarrel in the court. The ministers whose children were involved in it are definitely not willing to punish severely, but others hope to calm down and settle this matter as soon as possible, so that The marriage can be carried out smoothly. As you wish, a turbulent Zhou Dynasty almost appeared."

Pei Yue could hear a little complacency from her mouth.

He used Yangmou this time, taking advantage of the chance of those dandies coming to provoke him, he used his injury to create a problem for Nan Zhou.Just like what the girl in front of her said, she must either severely punish those who caused troubles and give herself an explanation, or suffer the consequences of the immediate breakdown of the newly restored relationship between the two countries.

But judging from the words Xu Churong used, the other party has obviously found a solution.

Xu Churong said relaxedly: "The Marquis of Zhongshan has a high status. Of course, my court will not treat it casually. We must take it seriously. The identity and background of the assassin, is there a mastermind behind him, and are those powerful children ordered to come to you? These things must be thoroughly investigated, and the case must not be closed at will. Even if it takes a year or so, those adults will definitely continue to investigate."

Pei Yue has already understood that it is a dragging formula.

But he had to admit that this was the only correct way for the south to solve this problem smoothly.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help looking at Xu Churong with great interest, and asked, "Is this the idea you came up with?"

Xu Churong had been staring at Pei Yue with all her attention, because she really wanted to see the astonishment and frustration on his face, but Pei Yue was calm from the beginning to the end, which made her a little disappointed.

Is this person really as hard-hearted as a stone?
She restrained her mind and said with a smile: "When I was in Beijing in Beiliang, I heard some gossip, such as Zhongshanhou's deep affection for two wives who have never been married, for example, you will marry them at the end of this year. So I Just thinking, you probably don’t want to spend too long here.”…

Pei Yue could hear that she bit the words "two" and "them" very hard.

He didn't pay attention to these details, and said calmly: "Although Miss Xu is very young, she is indeed smarter than I imagined. After you go back, tell Mr. Xu that I don't need to hold those dudes accountable, but that assassin must Ming canonical punishment."

Xu Churong was slightly taken aback. Today she volunteered to solve this problem for her father, but she was actually not very sure in her heart.

However, Pei Yue agreed so cooperatively that it made her feel unreal.

Pei Yue stood up, and said calmly: "Miss Xu, you won a game today, and you must have relieved a little anger at that time. The rift between you and me is over, please go back."

"Wait." Xu Churong said hastily.

Pei Yue looked at her puzzled.

Xu Churong relaxed his breath, stood up and said, "Since Marquis Zhongshan doesn't need to continue to recuperate, do you have the guts to participate in the Donglin Wenhui in five days' time?"

Pei Yue gave her unexpected answer again: "Okay."

Simple and sure.

Xu Churong had countless doubts at this moment, and even suspected that he had heard it wrong.

The words she had prepared when she came were useless, and at this moment, it seemed that Pei Yue had already guessed the reason for her visit.Thinking back on today's conversation, she suddenly felt a sense of being suppressed. It was obvious that she thought of a way to break it and made him have to retreat.

This feeling made her a little depressed.

However, Pei Yue did not continue the chat, and said succinctly: "Come, see off."

Xu Churong took a deep look at him, turned around and left.
