Chapter 23
Zhang Qianlan glanced at Chunyan, sighed again, and could clearly see that she and her daughter were fighting together, "Forget it, if you have anything to do in the future, remember to leave it to the adults. Go back to your room and rest, your mother will take care of the big things." I will support you in front."

"Yes." Yu Lian nodded.

I wanted to walk inside, but after taking just two steps, I met Yu Xing'an striding angrily.

He must have heard Shen's embellished words, which made him so angry.

Zhang Qianlan took a few steps to stop the man and spoke first: "Master, Lian'er is not to blame for this. That Tong girl is domineering and she beat people to death on Zhuque Street not long ago. Lian'er went to the banquet today, dressed like Isn't it normal to be tit-for-tat like Chang'e in the moon?"

The woman is beautiful, but the willows are weak and curly.

She looks like a common lady from a Jiangnan water town.

She spoke with a delicate voice, which half extinguished Yu Xing'an's anger, and said harshly: "She makes things difficult for you, so you won't let her say a few words? Her young lady's temper is also It's over, offended the Tong family, how will my Yu family gain a foothold in the capital in the future?"

Zhang Qianlan yelled, looking like she was trying to reason, "Is this what Mrs. Shen told you? Do you know that the Tong family daughter wants to have our daughter beaten to death? If Lian'er doesn't run away or make trouble, she will fight with Zhuque." Like the man on the street, he was beaten to death. Mr. Shen is a noble man. Try her daughter Yu Lingshan. Maybe she would have come forward and scratched the face of the Tong girl. Humph, her daughter is a treasure, and my daughter is a piece of grass. Isn’t it?”

Yu Xingan said nothing with a stern face.

She added: "Besides, Governor Pei didn't say anything, but he still came to save our Lian'er. Maybe he has taken a liking to our Lian'er, so you can just wait to become the father-in-law of Governor Pei."

These words successfully extinguished Yu Xing'an's anger. He glanced at his second daughter, "There is a figure of Xie Ting and Yongxue, but why hasn't Governor Pei seen such a stunning beauty? It's better not to have other thoughts, and you will be ready in the spring of next year." After that, Dad will naturally find a good marriage for you."

Zhang Qianlan continued his words: "Lian'er's husband must be chosen carefully, she cannot be a concubine, she must be the mistress."

"Of course I know."

"There are counts? What you mean by counts is to marry Lian'er casually in exchange for benefits for the Yu Mansion, regardless of her life..."

The two quarreled back and forth.

Yu Lian was not interested, so she left the venue quietly, and has not practiced kung fu today.

The air gradually became thinner, the light snow fell heavier and heavier, the night fell, and darkness slowly enveloped the earth.

Pedestrians opened paper umbrellas one after another.

The tall red palace walls are decorated with palm lights, the palace is carved with painted beams and painted buildings, and the heights are scattered, and the maids and eunuchs are busy in an orderly manner.

The palace is where the most noble people in the world live, and they have the power of life and death to control everyone.

The Ninth Five-Year Supreme Master was wearing a bright yellow embroidered dragon robe, sitting upright in the imperial study room, with a solemn face. He had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a small red mole at the corner of his mouth. He had a majestic appearance.

Because the expression is too solemn, it doesn't look like the 22-year-old in full bloom.

It's like a person in his forties.

"Tong Xiangming now holds 30 military power in his hands. It should not be underestimated. It is also one of the reasons why I tolerate him these years. Now he is really getting bolder. Who doesn't know that you are my close minister and dare to treat you A big fight, which also shows that he has no fear of me at all."

His voice was icy cold.

The Tong family's military power must be removed quickly, and there may be a rebellion someday.

The emperor looked at the people sitting down, expecting his answer.

Pei Huai'an sat on the red sandalwood chair, tapping his index finger silently on the black lacquered Pengya square table, as if he was thinking about how to answer the emperor's question.

The fire dragon in the house was burning vigorously, and there was still a faint scent of sandalwood in the air.

After a while, he opened his mouth and said: "It is obviously not feasible for Tong Xiangming to release his military power with a glass of wine. He will not hand over his military power easily. Now he is detained in the East Factory. If he dies, his subordinates must I will seek justice, but I can't kill him for the time being."

He added: "Dongchang has mastered the crimes of Mu Lou and Weng Shu. Taking advantage of Tong Xiangming's detention, Dongchang and Xichang will be dispatched separately early tomorrow morning to capture the two men and question them. They killed people and should be punished according to their crimes. Execution, by the time Tong Xiangming comes out, there is nothing he can do to stop him."

Yu Wende lowered his eyebrows, "It's good to be able to get rid of the two generals on the left and right beside him, but what if Tong Xiangming counterattacks wildly?"

Pei Huai'an stood up, sat by the half-opened sill window, looked out at the falling snow, and said slowly: "Tong Jingyun will stay in Dongchang's prison for a while, and Tong Xiangming doesn't dare to fight back crazily. , I will personally put on my armor to fight in person, I am sure of victory, but many people will die."

When there is a war, it is the soldiers who die and the people who suffer.

Tong Xiangming has 30 troops, so it would be best to solve the problem peacefully.

If not, if the imperial court sends troops to forcefully surrender, tens of thousands of people may die, or more than 20 or [-] people will die, which will damage the foundation of the country, and it will take several years to recover. In addition, the neighboring countries are staring at Dayin Dynasty, so they have to Defend.

This is also the reason why Yu Wende fears Tong Xiangming.

Yu Wende got up from the big chair carved with red sandalwood dragon head, walked to Pei Huai'an, and said seriously: "Just do as you say, Huai'an, you are a sharp knife in my hand, and the person I trust most is you, I hope Dayin With our hard work, we will be more prosperous.”

Pei Huai'an didn't take credit for his pride, and with his narrow and coquettish Danfeng eyes indifferent, he bowed to the emperor and said, "I just did what I should do."

The emperor patted him on the shoulder and said, "He who knows me is Huai'an."

Pei Huai'an nodded.

The wind and snow outside were getting heavier, and they were falling.

A layer of snow fell on the white jade carved handrails, the yellow tiles, and the plum blossoms.

When Pei Huai'an stepped out of the imperial study, it was already Xu hour, and Shuo Feng was already waiting for him. As soon as he came out, he immediately opened his umbrella to greet him, and the two of them walked towards the palace gate.

The lights and shadows are dim, and the dim shadows of the palace walls are dimly printed on the palace road in the snowy night.

They stepped on the snow one after another.

Pei Huai'an slowed down, turned his head in a strange way, and glanced at the long red wall. Snowflakes soon covered his footprints. He had walked this road many times, and he was no stranger to it.

Since when did he get blood on his hands?

This question is worth pondering.

Probably after the death of Princess Zhaoyang, Yu Wende sat on the throne, and many people needed to be dealt with. His hands were slowly stained with blood, and he couldn't even wipe them clean.

Both of his parents died since he was a child, and he left home with his master when he was young, so he didn't have deep feelings for the Pei family.

That year, Zhaoyang threatened him and threatened him with the Pei family. At that time, his grandmother was still alive, which was his weakness. He didn't want his grandmother to see the Pei family fall apart, so he agreed.Yu Wende, who was still the sixth prince at that time, asked him to cooperate several times to overthrow Emperor Jianwen and save the people.
