Krypton gold longevity: a hundred years of life at the beginning

Chapter 119 Two secret letters, depressed General Pei
Pei Hu!

After finding out who it was, Cheng Xinchui didn't say much, but Wang Yunxiang, who was worried about the dinner in the house, apologized and hurriedly took the people away.

After there were no outsiders, Ah Li walked out with the money, and the river bank returned to its original appearance.

The grilling continues and the seabass is returned to the pot for heating...

Looking at the somewhat careless Cheng Xintui, Zhang Hua flipped the grilled fish in his hand and asked, "Sister, what does General Pei mean? Does he have any grudge against his father-in-law?"

At the banquet, the seabass was said to be Lu Guogong’s favorite. To put it in a small way, it was a joke on Cheng Jinshan, but in a big way, it was a slap in the face and meant to form a deadly feud... The specifics will depend on Pei Da. How is the relationship between the general and his father-in-law?

"What do you mean! I don't know."

Cheng Xintui was stunned for a moment, then shook his head slightly and said, "As for having any grudges, it shouldn't be the case. Although I don't know what happened this time, in my impression, their previous relationship was quite good. Could it be that these The year has gotten worse! In fact, based on our relationship, Xinlan and I still call General Pei uncle."

"uncle!"

Zhang Hua slapped Xinlan's uncle in his hands. Isn't that his uncle?

Another great general, tsk tsk, his daughter-in-law married... However, when he looked at Xinlan, he found that she looked puzzled, obviously not aware that he had such an uncle.

"Don't look at me, little sister. Although she has seen him before, I didn't let him identify me at that time, so she doesn't know."

Cheng Xinchui explained: "Not only Xinlan is unaware of this relationship, but probably not many people in the entire Duke's mansion know about it. After all, my...

Well, there are a lot of people in Shendu who are looking for trouble for me, so in order not to cause trouble to them, I have been hiding this matter. Now if you are not married, I would still want to continue to hide it. "

Next, Cheng Xinchui started to talk about the reason.

It turned out that Pei Hu and Xinlan's mothers were distant cousins. However, because Xinlan's grandfather committed a crime and was kicked out of the house, they never recognized each other.

Speaking of his mother's side, Cheng Xinchui also used this opportunity to talk about some old stories, some of which Xinlan had heard of before, and some of which she didn't even know.

For example, the reason why her mother married her father was because her father once saved Xinlan's uncle... It would be a good thing at best.

It's a pity that the uncle named Pei Qing was surrounded and killed because his force was too strong. Otherwise, he would be a big leg now.

As for the general Pei Hu, Cheng Xinchui only found out about his existence when he left Shendu. At that time, he also thought of helping, but Cheng Xinchui refused...

Of course, the reason for rejection may not be as simple as fear of implicating others. Cheng Xinchui was quite wary at the time, so how could he accept help from this uncle who suddenly appeared!
That is to say, in the next ten years, Pei Hu secretly went to Lin'an to visit them several times before acquiescing to the existence of this uncle.

……

In the Sheriff's House.

After Cheng Jinshan finished handling military matters, he also came to the banquet. When he arrived here with several lieutenant generals, the banquet was about to begin.

First there was singing and dancing. After Cheng Jinshan greeted Wang Anbo, the owner, he immediately approached Pei Hu.

"Old Pei, you are so uninterested. It's okay if you didn't wait for me to start together at the beginning, but you didn't slow down during the march, but you made it easier for me to catch up!"

Pei Hu sideways dodged the iron fist that greeted Cheng Jinshan, and explained with a smile: "You can't blame me for this. The two armies didn't set off at the same time. If you wait for you, doesn't it mean that our right guard is lazy! Come on! I can't bear the blame from the Ministry of War.

Okay, haven't you caught up now anyway? If you really want to blame me, how about I punish myself with three cups of wine? "

"Ah, you punished yourself with three drinks. I think you just want to drink more. That's a good idea!"

Cheng Jinshan rolled his eyes and muttered: "If you really want to accept the punishment, why not promise me to rest in Pengcheng for one more day before setting off."

"Oh~ take a day off! It seems you have just marched in a hurry!"

A smile flashed in Pei Hu's eyes, and he continued: "It's not a big deal to take a rest for a day, anyway, there is enough time, but if we want to stay here for an extra day, don't we have to ask the owner if he agrees first!"

"Yes, I'm being rude to you, Old Cheng."

Hearing this, Cheng Jinshan turned around and smiled at Wang Anbo, cupping his hands and saying, "Master Wang, the Shenwu Guards will rest outside the city for one more day. There will be many disturbances. Please don't blame me, Master Wang."

"How dare you dare!"

Wang Anbo quickly bowed and said with a smile: "The general said this to offend the subordinates. It is a blessing for the people of the entire Pengcheng that the Shenwu Guards can repair in Pengcheng for one more day. I think the public security in the surrounding area will be greatly improved during this time." Jie, speaking of which, I have to thank the general."

"Haha, Mr. Wang, you are really... Haha, okay, then Lao Cheng would like to thank Mr. Wang."

Cheng Jinshan smiled and pointed at Wang Anbo, and then said to Pei Hu: "Since Mr. Wang has already agreed, this matter is settled. We will take a day off tomorrow and we will set off together the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, let's do it like this." Pei Hu nodded in agreement, and then smiled at Wang Anbo and said, "Master Wang, please stop these singing and dancing. We are all rough guys, and some good wine and food will be fine."

"Haha, what Lao Pei said is right." Cheng Jinshan waved his hand and shouted: "Master Wang, please bring more wine. The past few days of marching have made Lao Cheng exhausted."

"Okay, two generals, wait a moment, we have enough wine for today."

Wang Anbo responded with a smile, then clapped his hands, asked the singers and dancers to leave, and asked the butler to arrange for them to sit down.

Because they were doing this with their backs to Cheng Jinshan and the others, they didn't know that Wang Anbo started to sweat on his forehead when he heard that he was about to eat.

He was a little confused. It seemed that the two generals had a good relationship. Why would General Pei embarrass General Cheng?And he even brought himself with him.

Now General Pei has taken the initiative to remove the singers and dancers. Obviously he doesn't want the situation to escalate. This... Hey, if Xiang'er hadn't accidentally met General Cheng's family on the way, he still doesn't know how today would have ended. He just didn't know what happened afterwards. Will General Pei blame himself?

Although he felt a little uneasy, he had experienced strong winds and waves after all. When he turned around, Wang Anbo greeted the other generals warmly with a smile on his face.

After a while, a group of servants filed in. Jars of fine wine were loaded up, and plates of seasonal fruits were served. Due to military discipline and transportation reasons, these are the most scarce supplies in the army. See These two things, Wang Anbo's arrangement won unanimous praise from everyone.

Next came the cold dishes, which were eaten with a few bowls of wine. After it started to get lively, the heat started to come. First there were large plates of barbecue, chicken and duck in wooden basins... and finally there was no feast without fish.

When he saw the fish being caught, Wang Anbo's whole body was tense. When he saw that the servants were right, the fish on the right Xiaowei side were all seabass, and the Shenwuwei side were all swordfish, his body finally relaxed. A little more.

However, when he turned his attention to Pei Hu, he immediately became nervous again, because after looking at two different kinds of fish, the other party looked at him with a smile but not a smile!

clap clap! !
Just when Wang Anbo was about to step forward to explain in embarrassment, Pei Hu suddenly got up and clapped his hands, and after everyone quieted down, he said to him with a serious expression: "Please also ask Mr. Wang to block the left and right. This general wants to ask Wang about something. grown ups."

This...can't you handle it like this!

Wang Anbo's heart sank. He didn't expect that General Pei still wanted to cause trouble!

He was not really afraid of Pei Hu. Although the opponent was much higher in rank than him, what could he do if he couldn't control him!
Besides, Wang Anbo actually had no choice in making such an arrangement. If it was just like he didn't know about Cheng Jinshan's taboos like at the beginning, then he could still use misunderstanding as an excuse.

But the other party's daughter told her son that this was a taboo, and if he still offered it, then it would be because he was out of his mind. How could he, a little fourth-grade governor, have the guts to slap a second-grade general in the face!
Seeing everyone looking at him, Wang Anbo sighed inwardly, then straightened his face, stood up and asked everyone in the Sheriff's Mansion to leave first.

"Dad~" Wang Yunxiang, who knew the truth, shouted solemnly.

"Xiang'er, please step back with your uncles first. It's okay." Wang Anbo showed a smile, then patted the other party on the shoulder to comfort him.

"Yes, Dad, my son is guarding you outside, and you can say hello if you have something to do." Wang Yunxiang said with a serious expression.

"What nonsense, get out of here."

Wang Anbo glared at his son, pointed at the few jars of wine left in the hall, and said angrily: "The general must think there is not enough wine. What's the use of waiting outside? Why don't you go out and buy it quickly."

"Oh…"

After seeing his son leave the hall, Wang Anbo looked at Cheng Jinshan who was confused, and raised his hands in embarrassment. Then he came to Pei Hu and said apologetically, "General, please don't get angry. It's because the subordinate didn't think carefully. Please wait." Everyone..."

"Haha, Mr. Wang, Mr. Ling is quite good."

Before Wang Anbo finished speaking, Pei Hu waved his hand and said something meaningful. Then he pointed at the desk and said to him: "I wonder if Mr. Wang can explain what is going on. Does this general remember?" I specifically told you, sir!"

I will do what you say!Don’t you know what it means to do as the guest does?

Wang Anbo really wanted to say something, but when faced with the reality, he could only make amends and said with a smile: "How dare you forget the general's confession, isn't it a coincidence! Bass bought these few, so I can only use saury to make up the number , please don’t take offense, General."

sea ​​bass!

When Cheng Jinshan heard this, he couldn't sit still. He stood up and saw that he was so happy drinking just now that he didn't notice that what he served at the end were two different kinds of fish!
Listen to the meaning of the conversation between Sheriff Wang and Pei Hu again... Good guy, it turns out that today you are here for me, Old Cheng!
He was eating the melon on the side, but he didn't expect that it ended up on him. Cheng Jinshan felt very bad now.

However, he didn't say anything immediately. He wanted to see why Pei Hu did this. After so many years of friendship, he believed that the other party would definitely give him an explanation afterwards.

On Pei Hu's side, after listening to Wang Anbo's words, he was silent for a moment, then sighed and said: "Master Wang, although I don't know whether what you said is true or false, but... forget it, consider me unlucky! "

Pei Hu is in trouble!And because of myself!

Wang Anbo was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then said in a panic: "Why do you say this, General? How dare you, a subordinate, go against the general?"

Pei Hu waved his hands with a depressed expression and said, "It's not you. Logically speaking, it should be me, the general, who should say sorry to you, although this is not my intention."

Wang Anbo, who was confused, kept saying: "I don't dare..."

"Okay, Mr. Wang, you don't need to say any more."

After interrupting Wang Anbo, Pei Hu took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to him and said:

"Master Wang, take this secret letter and go out first. After you read this secret letter, you will know the reason."

Secret letter from the Internal Service!
Looking at the familiar envelope, Wang Anbo was even more at a loss.

Did he make some mistake, so the Internal Affairs Department asked General Pei to deal with him?And General Pei’s previous arrangements were just to find an excuse!

Then if you let yourself go out to see him now, you won't ask yourself to explain your funeral... In this way, your family will not be affected by your crime!
Looking at Wang Anbo, whose expression kept changing after getting the secret letter, Pei Hu didn't know what he was thinking about, but he thought it was definitely not a good thing, so he immediately said:
"Master Wang, hurry up and get out, don't worry Mr. Ling, don't worry, what is said in the secret letter is not a bad thing."

Not a bad thing!

Wang Anbo stiffened and immediately stopped fantasizing about his tragic end.

After looking at Pei Hu with a slight resentment, Wang Anbo still bowed and said: "Thank you, General, for reminding me. I will take my leave first."

After finishing speaking, he apologized to Cheng Jinshan and the generals, and immediately left the hall, leaving in a hurry, obviously wanting to open the secret letter early to see what was going on, why did he bother himself so much!

After Wang Anbo went out and closed the door, Pei Hu faced the people who were looking at him without saying a word, went back to his seat and drank to himself.

After a while, seeing that Pei Hu had finished three bowls in a row, Cheng Jinshan couldn't hold it in any longer, and immediately stood up and said: "Damn it, Lao Pei, what do you mean? It seems like you have been wronged, shouldn't you?" Can you give me an explanation?"

Argument...what does it mean?
Except for the two generals of the Shenwu Guard who knew some inside information, everyone among them looked at each other and had no idea what General Cheng was talking about, let alone what General Pei meant by his attitude!
"Let's talk about it!"

Pei Hu raised his head and glanced at Cheng Jinshan, then pointed at the steamed seabass on the table and said, "Okay, as long as you eat this seabass, Old Cheng, I will give you an explanation. How about it?"

"Damn it, you little Pei Xiaomao, are you deliberately looking for trouble and wanting to fight? You know it..."

Wait, Cheng Jinshan suddenly stopped after saying this. He thought that the other party knew his taboo, but why did he say that he would eat seabass!
Thinking again of Wang Anbo who just went out...

After some speculation, Cheng Jinshan stared at Pei Hu again, and when he saw the other person tilting his head, he suddenly laughed:

"Haha, it's Brother Pei. You know me and Lao Cheng. You know that Lao Cheng likes to eat seabass the most. Hey, this one is not enough. The brother next to me, I have swordfish over there. I'll replace it with you..."

Seeing Cheng Jinshan eating the sea bass, Pei Hu was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help but stand up and cursed: "Damn it, Old Cheng, you are so shameless, aren't you!"

"You want face! What does this have to do with wanting face? Didn't you make me eat it? Besides, I, old Cheng, love to eat seabass. Who doesn't know that about those old guys!"

Seeing Pei Hu's panic, Cheng Jinshan curled his lips, then stretched out his hand, and said:
"Bring it!"

"What are you getting? What did I get from you?" Pei Hu said with a dodgey look.

"A secret letter!"

Cheng Jinshan sipped the perch with one hand, and continued to shake it with the other: "Your General Pei specially arranged this scene, and even the supporting role of Wang Junshou has a secret letter. It is impossible that there is no old Cheng and me as the protagonist. Bring it here you .”

...

Outside.

In Wang Yunxiang's expectation, Wang Anbo opened the secret letter with slight trembling...

After a long time, looking at his father who was frozen and confused, Wang Yunxiang suddenly thought about whether the secret letter needed to be kept secret, so he went over to take a look...

"...If you know the subtleties, you should be the minister of the Ministry of Punishment...I will lose my etiquette and return to the Ministry of Rites to walk around and educate myself..."

"Dad, I am going to the Ministry of Punishment to serve as the Minister of Justice. Congratulations to Dad."

Looking at his overjoyed son, Wang Anbo came to his senses and couldn't help but burst into tears and said: "Yes, I'm going to the Ministry of Punishments, Xiang'er. I'm so lucky to have you this time. Otherwise, not only would I be going to the Ministry of Etiquette, but I would even be sent to the Ministry of Etiquette." Taste it for a while...it’s so risky!”

Although it was only a secret letter and not a document of the Ministry of Officials, this matter had already been settled, because just by looking at the tone of the secret letter, he knew that although the secret letter was written by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the content should be dictated by His Majesty.

After Wang Yunxiang heard what his father said, he suddenly thought of Zhang Hua and the others and said quickly:

"Dad, speaking of which, we should thank General Cheng's daughter. If we hadn't met them, dad, you would have gone to the Ministry of Rites."

"Yes, yes, we need to thank them properly." Mentioning this key point, Wang Anbo also nodded repeatedly and said: "Xiang'er, it's not convenient for my father to leave the city. Tomorrow you go and thank them properly on behalf of your father. Prepare more. Thank you, but don’t lose your etiquette.”

"Well, my son knows..."

...

inside the house.

"I…"

Looking at Cheng Jinshan with a proud look on his face, Pei Hu opened his mouth, then sighed, took out another secret letter from his sleeve and patted Cheng Jinshan's hand, and said:
"When I saw there were no bass there, I knew it was going to be over. Sure enough, you guys are still as lucky as ever."

"Shit, I don't rely on luck, I rely on my brain. Kitty Pei, don't deny it, my old Cheng's brain is better than your cat's brain."

After scolding Pei Hu, Cheng Jinshan wiped his hands on his body, then opened the secret letter and looked at it...

After a while.

"Haha... Kitty Pei, hurry up, call the handsome man and come and listen."

Looking at Cheng Jinshan who was waving the secret letter and looking arrogant, Pei Hu slapped his forehead and immediately lamented...

He knew it would be so.

Your Majesty is right, there are some shameless things that really need this shameless guy to do.
