Invincible son

Chapter 920 919 [I don't know whether to live or die]

As the wedding day approaches, more and more visitors come to Zhongshanhou's Mansion.

Emperor Kaiping's suppression ended without a problem, and the marriage proposal seemed to be just folk rumors, especially after the first lunar month of the new year, Pei Yue turned into a supporter of the eldest prince, cheering for him - of course, this matter is Pei The more proactive it is to send people to selectively publicize it to the outside world.

In any case, the dignitaries in the capital finally confirmed the fact that Pei Yue was still a first-class prince steadily, and his majesty did not arouse the emperor's dislike for taking advantage of the trend to gather the power of the Northern Camp of the Beijing Army.

Most people don't understand the struggle and checks and balances between the monarch and his ministers. They only know that after the battle in the southern border, Pei Yue has become more and more powerful, and his prestige in the army is close to that of Wang Pingzhang, Gu Liang and others.

It is difficult to give charcoal in the snow, but it is easy to add icing on the cake. For the nobles in Duzhong, face skin has always been a strange thing.Sometimes decency trumps everything, and sometimes she can be extremely flattering and low-key, only looking at the identity and status of the target.

There is no doubt that today's Pei Yue has the qualifications to make them bow their heads and laugh.

During this period of time, the stewards in the mansion were so busy that they did not touch the ground. Most of the guests needed to be received by the two chief housekeepers, Deng Shi and Wang Mo. Only a small number of people were eligible to enter the side hall where Pei Yue entertained guests.

In such a happy and busy situation, the arrival of an unexpected guest made Pei Yue slightly frowned.

"Weinan County King?" He asked in a deep voice.

The chief steward, Deng Shi, answered with his head bowed: "The king of Weinan County came to visit alone, and he didn't post a notice in advance. He came quite suddenly, and he brought a whole cart full of gifts."

Pei Yue snorted softly and said, "Ask him to go to the side hall, and don't store the gifts for now."

Deng Shi took the order and said, "Yes, Lord Hou."

Pei Yue knows the clan's children like the back of his hand, and this can be regarded as a compulsory course taught to him by Mr. Xi.It's just that apart from the princes of Emperor Kaiping, the others are really lackluster.The reason is that after the death of Emperor Zhongzong, the brothers of Emperor Kaiping passed away one after another, and the descendants of these princes basically had no influence on the court.

The father of Weinan County King Liu Fei is the fifth younger brother of Emperor Kaiping, so he has to call Emperor Kaiping Emperor Uncle.

However, he is not qualified to face the saint frequently. On weekdays, he mainly follows the second prince, King Qi, and takes care of the bamboo building and other properties in the capital for him.

Of course, Pei Yue would not forget that before he returned to Beijing, this person, on behalf of the King of Qi, persuaded those military relatives and nobles to buy the shares of Qinyuan in their hands.In all fairness, he was a little confused about King Qi's thoughts. Could it be that the eldest son of the empress thought that he was a servant who would come and go when he was called, and that as long as he leaked a little bit, he would come up to him?

Hearing that Empress Chen is virtuous, virtuous, smart and intelligent, she should not be able to teach such a stupid prince.

However, when he stepped into the side hall and saw Liu Fei's sitting posture, he couldn't help doubting his own judgment.

"Oh, it's too difficult to see Pei Hou."

Liu Fei's opening remarks startled Feng Yi and Gai Ju, who followed Pei Yue in. They had seen too many dignitaries who bowed to Pei Yue during this period, and they never expected that someone would have such a sarcastic tone.

Is this door-to-door finding fault?
Pei Yue walked to the main seat and sat down, and said calmly, "What advice does the county king have?"

Liu Fei said indifferently: "It's not a matter of advice, but there are some misunderstandings between you and me that need to be resolved. As the saying goes, it is better to settle enemies than to tie them together. Besides, you and I are both His Majesty's servants. I think Marquis Pei will not refuse, right?"

Pei Yue said calmly: "I don't know what is the misunderstanding that the king of the county is referring to?"

Liu Fei chuckled lightly and said, "Why should Pei Hou pretend to be ignorant? It's nothing more than the matter of Qinyuan's shares before. It's good to teach Peihou to know that the king really intends to buy Qinyuan's shares, and a large part of the reason is because he wants to make friends with him. Marquis Pei. Back then, Marquis Pei had not yet returned to the capital, and the wind was quite unfavorable to you. Those mansions were worried that they would lose their money, so they wanted to sell the shares in Qinyuan. This king knows that Marquis Pei is loyal to the country, and I can't bear to see you Your property is falling apart, so you want to help."

Feng Yi and Gai Ju endured again and again, and finally showed some idiot eyes.

What kind of pighead is this Weinan County King? Does he think that as a son of the clan, he can ride on the head of Zhongshanhou to do his best?

If he was facing an ordinary merchant, these words would not be outrageous, it was nothing more than bullying others with power.

But he wanted to fool Pei Yue with such crude words, I'm afraid it was just a daydream.

Pei Yue looked at Liu Fei's expression and asked curiously, "Do you know what you're talking about?"

Liu Fei frowned and said, "What do you mean by Marquis Pei's words?"

Pei Yue picked up the teacup and gently blew the floating tea leaves, without saying a word.

Liu Fei said coldly: "I heard that Marquis Pei intends to reduce the business in Duzhong. Regardless of Qinyuan or Xiangyun, as long as Pei Hou is willing to let me invest in the shares, it is guaranteed that you will earn more than before."

Pei Yue said indifferently: "What if the Marquis disagrees?"

Liu Fei narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "A few years ago, Marquis Pei bought the mine in Shouyang Mountain at an extremely low price, so that there was a foundation for rapid expansion. But as far as this king knows, the person who handled this matter at the beginning The household officials were coerced by the Marquis of Guangping to sell the mine to Marquis Pei for a mere 3 taels. If the imperial court knew about this, I’m afraid...hehe..."

Pei Yue hadn't experienced such a straightforward threat for so long that he was in a daze for a while.

Although he had never overestimated the dude raised by Tian with silver rice, the performance of the Weinan County King still opened his eyes, and at the same time fell into indescribable self-doubt.

From a normal point of view, a domineering young prince is not contrary to common sense, but considering the second prince behind him, and the fact that his trip is very likely to be ordered by the second prince, such an attitude is a bit weird.

After all, there was no need for the second prince to irritate himself so bluntly.

After a moment of silence, Pei Yue said with a little nostalgia: "Oh, it turns out that the king of the county came today to blackmail me."

Liu Fei frowned and said, "What do you call Peihou? You and I are talking about business, what kind of charges are you accusing of extortion. Of course, if Peihou is unwilling to sell his shares, this king will not make it difficult for you. You only need to Do something, this king promises that no one will have any idea about the property under your name."

Pei Yue said indifferently: "What's the matter?"

Liu Fei said slowly: "It is only necessary for Marquis Pei to offer advice and suggestions to His Majesty, clarifying that the foundation of our country is to establish a son and a son—"

Pei Yue's complexion changed suddenly, and he threw the teacup in his hand directly, hitting Liu Fei's face, and the hot tea poured all over his body, making him scream in pain.

"Pei Yue!"

Before Liu Fei's angry words fell to the ground, Pei Yue got up and came to him, grabbed his collar, slapped him in the face suddenly, and said angrily: "What are you, you dare to lie about the position of the crown prince?" !"

Just like Pei Yue didn't expect Qi Wang Liu Yun to send such a stupid lobbyist, Liu Fei didn't expect that this young dignitary would really dare to do something to the clan's children, he was forced by his fierce aura for a while, and finally dared not continue to be harsh .

Pei Yue loosened his collar and said in a deep voice, "Get out!"

Feng Yi and Gai Ju looked at each other, stepped forward and politely pushed Liu Fei out.

After the hall became quiet, Pei Yue quickly regained his composure and was no longer as angry as before.

What Liu Fei did did not benefit the second prince's great cause of succession other than thoroughly angering himself and bringing the relationship between the two parties to a freezing point.

However, according to the information obtained before, Liu Fei has been following King Qi's ass since he was a child, and he is known as King Qi's diehard.

When something goes wrong, there must be a demon...

Pei Yue raised his hand and tapped on the table lightly, muttering to himself: "Since you don't want to see me stay out of it, then you have no choice but to grant your wish."

A cold light flashed in his eyes.
