Yu Wan Chun Nong

Chapter 5 Madam
Cheng Yiwan's foot was injured, so she could only recuperate in her room. Pei Shangyu was busy with work these days, so she didn't bother her. She was relieved, but what he was thinking about was Xu Liuchuan that he said that day.

Jiangdu is a holy land of mountains and rivers, and there are a lot of great Confucian scholars. Literati and high-ranking guests like to come to Jiangdu to enjoy the scenery and paint, or to compose poems and poems in front of the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers. Xu Liuchuan's father is the son of the most famous Confucianist in Jiangdu.

Influenced by his father since he was a child, Xu Liuchuan was also a talented young man. Cheng's family lived next door to Xu's when he was young, and Cheng Yiwan also studied with Master Xu, so he naturally got to know Xu Liuchuan.

Now if you want Xu Liuchuan not to be tortured by Pei Shangyu, the only way is to ignore him, Pei Shangyu is a rebellious person, she is with him, she makes many mistakes.

With a bang, all the furnishings in the study were swept away by Pei Shangyu. He leaned against the table with broken tiles under his feet. The man took a few breaths violently and slowly squatted down.

"Go ahead."

Hearing his voice, Cui Guo, who had been standing at the door all this time, said: "Master Zuodu Censor read a book for you in front of His Majesty, saying that you neglected your duties and accepted bribes."

Every time he said a word, Cui Guo lowered his head half a point. Pei Shangyu had a fierce reputation, and since he took up the post of prime minister, no one dared to confront him. It's really desperate.

"Neglect of duty, accepting bribes, very good."

Pei Shangyu raised his head, picked up a piece of broken porcelain with his fingertips and said coldly: "The truth is that Zuodu Yushi has a precious granddaughter, right?"

Cui Guo's heart skipped a beat when he said this, he nodded back to him: "Responding to your lord's words, yes."

"Give it to Prince Jing as a concubine, I'm sure Zuodu Censor will be satisfied."

Zuodu Censor was upright and upright, he was well-known in the court as an old stubborn, but because the late emperor was extremely favored during his lifetime, he was compared to the outspoken Wei Zheng, so he was also very prestigious in the court.

There was only one person, and he was helpless, that was Pei Shangyu, who wanted to get rid of him wholeheartedly, but he forgot that now half of the important officials in the court were promoted by Pei Shangyu, and the power in Pei Shangyu's hands had reached the level of his hands and eyes. the point.

King Jing is also an ally of Pei Shangyu, and because he was visited by Zuodu Yushi in the early years, he was also broken by the first emperor. It is conceivable that the granddaughter of Zuodu Yushi who looked like a treasure fell to King Jing In the hands, what kind of training should be received.

"Has the evidence been searched?"

The tiles were nailed to the door, Pei Shangyu stood up slowly, stretched out his hand to dust off the clothes, Cui Guo stepped forward and handed something over: "My lord, the ledger is fake, the real ledger is not in Li Dekai's hands, the subordinate will His private house was searched and could not be found."

Pei Shangyu flipped through the ledger, and said coldly: "If you could find it, those aristocratic families would have been wiped out by the truth."

The first emperor naturally knew what the art of checks and balances was, so when he was dying, he appointed many auxiliary ministers. Over the years, he fought openly and secretly with those aristocratic families, and gradually gathered all the power into his own hands.

It's just that those aristocratic families will not just watch the power they have painstakingly managed for many years return to Pei Shangyu, so this struggle between the former dynasty and the harem, and the aristocratic families started in secret.

Pei Shangyu came to Jiangdu this time to investigate a corruption case, and this corruption case is also related to the aristocratic family. If they got the account book first, it would be tantamount to catching their hands. Now it is a pity.

"It's the subordinate who is not good at handling things. I would like to be punished by adults."

Cui Guo lowered his head, this was the first time he messed up something after following Pei Shangyu for so many years, and he felt a little bit offended.

"It's okay, the truth will be known before coming here, where is Xu Liuchuan?"

When Pei Shangyu changed the subject, Cui Guo replied, "I'm already in the side room."

After the words fell, Pei Shangyu turned around and walked towards the side room. In the dark room sat a man in black cloth covering his head, Pei Shangyu signaled Cui Guo to remove the black cloth for Xu Liuchuan.

The glare of the sun outside the door made Xu Liuchuan a little bit blind. There was a person standing at the door with a tall body and condensed eyes. He frowned and said, "I don't know why your Excellency tied me here?"

He has always been kind to others, and he doesn't remember who he has offended. For a moment, he couldn't think of any enemies he had.

Pei Shangyu stood at the door and looked at him. The young man did look gentle and jade-like. He had met Xu Liuchuan ten years ago. At that time, Cheng Yiwan loved to lean towards him. He was still as charming as ever. disgust.

"Ah Wan is getting married, as an older brother, shouldn't he come to watch the ceremony?"

Hearing the word Ah Wan, Xu Liuchuan suddenly raised his head and met Pei Shangyu's playful eyes. He opened his mouth, but found himself a little speechless: "What?"

It took a while to find my voice, and asked dully, is Ah Wan Cheng Yiwan?Are you going to get married later?
"What are you talking about? Impossible!"

Xu Liuchuan was struggling on the chair, trying to break free from the rope that imprisoned him. Pei Shangyu walked up to him and looked down at him: "Impossible? Why is it impossible? In the future, when Mr. Xu enters and exits the temple, don't forget to call Ah Wan Mrs. Prime Minister."

These words stopped Xu Liuchuan's struggling movements, and he looked at Pei Shangyu in shock: "You, are you Pei Shangyu?"

Everyone in the Southern Dynasties was afraid of Pei Shangyu, just because after being targeted by Pei Shangyu, there would be no way out, but now he said he was going to marry Wan'er?
"Cui Guo, the truth tells you to invite Mr. Xu, why did you kidnap him, after all, he is also Madam's brother, right? Untie him quickly."

Pei Shangyu ignored Xu Liuchuan's words, and instead reprimanded Cui Guo, seeing Xu Liuchuan's absent-minded appearance when he lifted his foot to go out, he couldn't help feeling relieved.

He and Cheng Yiwan have known each other for more than ten years, and only when he completely got her can he feel the uneasiness in his heart be soothed, but she doesn't love him, and she doesn't even want to say a word to him, he should understand , There is only a moment of tenderness between the two when the body is close.

"grown ups."

At a quarter of a hour, Pei Shangyu walked outside Cheng Yiwan's door, and when Piaoxu yelled, he waved her away.

The girl in the room lowered her head, holding an embroidery shed in her hands, her soft hair drooping down, making her look even softer and softer in the dim light.

"What is Ah Wan doing?"

Pei Shangyu's voice sounded from outside, his eyes were blurred, and there was still a smell of alcohol. Cheng Yiwan wanted to stand up, but was held back by Pei Shangyu. He sat on the bed, picked her up, and smelled good on her body. After smelling the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus, he sighed contentedly.

"The truth is, I met Xu Liuchuan. He is gentle and elegant, and he looks like a literati you like."

The man stretched out his hand and held Cheng Yiwan's hand. The cold jade bracelet was wrapped into her slender wrist. He leaned his head on her and said, "If you like poetry, I can teach you too. His Poetry is not as good as mine."
