Invincible son

Chapter 997 998 [After the Mist]
This private house was originally built by a wealthy businessman in the capital. Later, due to poor management, he had to shut down the business in Yunzhou, and then sold the house.On the surface, there are only three courtyards here, but there is another world inside, at least in terms of the occupied area, it’s just that in this vast and bitterly cold borderland, even the government doesn’t bother to care about these trivial matters.

In the East Wing, the fragrance of tea is wafting, and the candlelight is bright, blending with the gradually darkening sky outside, exuding a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere.

For Chen Xizhi, she never imagined that one day she would be able to sit opposite Pei Yue.

She poured tea and pushed it in front of Pei Yue, then said calmly: "It seems that Wang Pingzhang had hooked up with the barbarians in the wasteland a long time ago. I was surprised that Liu Zheng didn't get angry, but after thinking about it, this is also in line with them. After you passed the crisis of trust brought about by the great victory in the southern border, Wang Pingzhang should be on the highest alert and guard against you, even surpassing Gu Liang."

She looked as usual, with the usual cold determination in her eyes, but in fact she was a little nervous at this time, because she didn't know what answer Pei Yue would give.

Judging by the previous cases, Pei Yue obviously has no interest in discussing these serious matters with her.

Pei Yue took the teacup but didn't drink it, just put it on the table in front of him, and then said lightly: "Wang Pingzhang is so afraid of me, not because I am stronger than Yue Zhang, but because he can't grasp my mind. Or, in his In my heart, I am still the stupid young man willing to shed his blood for the king, but such a stupid person is difficult to deal with."

Looking at Pei Yue's movements, Chen Xizhi's eyes turned cold, and he said, "Are you afraid that I will poison you?"

Pei Yue didn't seem to notice her faint anger, and said calmly: "Speak the business."

Chen Xizhi was stunned, put away the indifference on his face, and said slowly: "Business? Since you know that the rise of the barbarians has nothing to do with Wang Pingzhang, why did you come to northern Xinjiang to swim in the muddy water?"

"and then?"

Pei Yue raised his right hand and put it on the table, flicked the table with four fingers casually, and said in a complicated tone: "When I knew you were not dead, my mood was very complicated, because your existence always reminded me that I am a man of words. Unbelievers. In front of those farmers in Luliu Village, in front of Fang Rui, in front of Mr. Xi, and even in front of many people, I said that I would kill you to avenge the 47 lives in the village. But, I I broke my promise."

Chen Xizhi suppressed the surprise in his heart, nodded and said, "Understood."

Chen Xizhi said coldly: "What do you mean?"

Pei Yue nodded and said, "That's right."

Pei Yue asked, "Then what does he want to do?"

"Then just watch while fighting. After the dust settles in the capital, you will defeat the barbarians and return to the capital with a victorious army. At that time, who else can suppress you?"

"Hehe, why do you have to pretend to be stupid in front of me? Gu Liang is still in the capital, and you specially kept Wu Dingwei and Beiwei Ying here to influence the situation at a critical moment? Just wait for Liu Zheng and Wang Pingzhang to suffer or even perish together. It's a smooth road. I have to say, Pei Yue, your strategy is getting more and more mature now."

"This doesn't make sense. If Wang Pingzhang succeeds, no matter whether the successor is the second prince or the sixth prince, or the two younger princes, he will not be able to give me a way out. The righteousness is in his hands, Zang Fengwei No matter how strong he is, he is just a bereaved dog, how can I have a place to live? Not to mention, all the people I care about stay in the Zhongshan Marquis Mansion, so Wang Pingzhang can force me to be arrested without a fight."

He looked directly into Chen Xizhi's eyes, and said slowly, "Do you understand?"

Pei Yue shook his head, unwilling to continue the topic, and turned to say: "Tell me about Wang Pingzhang. You say you know him very well, and there is no problem with that, but you are bound by hatred, so it is inevitable that you look at problems one-sidedly. Wang Pingzhang Acting viciously and with far-reaching schemes, he transferred me away from the capital not only to kill me, but he already had a comprehensive plan."

Chen Xizhi remained silent.

The house suddenly fell into a long silence.

Chen Xizhi didn't change his face, and said coldly: "When you die, Ye Qi will become a widow. I don't want her to wallow in sorrow in the days to come. Otherwise, I don't care if you die or not."

Chen Xizhi said softly: "So that's why you suppressed the marching speed of the Zangfengwei all the way, and now you stop to rest in Xing'an City?"

Pei Yue asked calmly, "What do you mean?"

Pei Yue continued: "Since I left Dingguo Mansion, I have always hoped that I can stick to my bottom line. The reason why you can live is because I lowered my bottom line, but it has nothing to do with your life experience, family wealth and the secrets you have. It's just because Ye Qi doesn't want to see you die again. She is the person I care about most in this world, even more than myself. I can't accept the result of her leaving me because of killing you. So, I broke my promise. "

Pei Yue raised his eyes and stared into her eyes, and said unhurriedly: "The emperor's order is hard to break."

Pei Yue said calmly: "It's possible."

Chen Xizhi shook his head and said calmly: "Perhaps you think that Wang Pingzhang wants to transfer you away, and then stir up the wind and rain in the capital. Liu Zheng has always been hypocritical, and he has to find a reason to plot others. I hope that Wang Pingzhang can take action after you leave, so that he can It can justifiably solve the Wang family, the only surviving military clan. Unfortunately, according to my understanding of Wang Pingzhang, he would never design such a stupid situation."

Pei Yue remained silent all the time, and his expression didn't change too much. It seemed that this guess was ordinary and unremarkable. Chen Xizhi couldn't help frowning and said, "Do you think he dares to do this? Or do you think he did it?" not?"

He paused, and said with a bit of self-deprecation: "But I think, I have broken my promise, and I can't go on. If it is because of those messy things, I will turn enemies into friends with you. I am afraid that in the future When I fell asleep, those farmers would come to me and ask me, young master, how can you do this?"

The corners of Chen Xizhi's mouth curled up, and he said calmly: "Wait and see, wait. Although the wasteland is dangerous, with your prudence and determination, it would be impossible for barbarians to kill you in the midst of [-] elite guards. As for the danger inside, although this The next time Ye Qi didn't follow, but Gu Fan disappeared without a trace, he must have been hidden by you. With such a master and your personal guards, it is even more impossible to assassinate him. By the way, you yourself Not mediocre."

Pei Yue asked calmly, "Are you caring about me?"

She didn't think she needed to feel guilty about it. Back then, the two were sworn enemies. She didn't hold back when dealing with Pei Yue, and Qi Shanchong went all out in that battle.On the other hand, Pei Yue was not a good stubble, and the city of Xingyang used the heads of her loyal subordinates to build a capital.Even if he pretended to commit suicide in front of the Town God's Temple, it wasn't because Pei Yue deliberately kept his hand, it was just that he had more means.

After Chen Xizhi finished speaking, he drank the clear tea in the teacup, then specially lit the bottom of the cup, and looked at Pei Yue meaningfully.

As for her influence was destroyed, martial arts were abolished, her savings were taken away, and she didn't even have personal freedom. She seemed to be smiling every day, but how much fun was such a life for her?

Chen Xizhi smiled and said, "Kill the king?"

Chen Xizhi said quietly: "He only wants your life."

Since she is a mortal enemy and life and death are not so important, how can she feel guilty because of Pei Yue's choice?
She was just a little curious about Pei Yue's real thoughts.

Not to mention that this private house is completely under the control of the other party, and she is not an independent husband like Liu Zheng, so how could she use such a method as poisoning?
Pei Yue didn't pay attention to her small movements, but said with a gloomy expression: "Fang Xun is dead."

The expression on Chen Xizhi's face froze instantly.

After a long silence, she slowly put down the cup and said in a low tone: "Yes, he is dead."

She seemed to be stating an irrelevant fact, but there were somewhat complicated emotions in her eyes.
