Invincible son

Chapter 662 661 [What seems to be in the world] ([-])
Xingliang Mansion, the emperor's palace.

The night is vast, and the lights are just coming on.

In the main hall of a small independent courtyard, the imperial physician was helping Pei Yue to change the dressing, and a group of worried faces stood beside him, including Qin Xian, Wei Rui, Xue Meng and Tang Linfen.

Pei Yue's injury was in the middle of his right shoulder, and the dagger pierced through between the shoulder blade and collarbone. Fortunately, his lungs were not injured, otherwise, with the medical level of this era, there might be serious problems.

"Pei Hou, your injury is not serious, and it will recover within half a month at most, but please be careful not to touch the wound during this period of time." After the imperial doctor bandaged Pei Yue, he said respectfully.

All the generals breathed a sigh of relief.

Pei Yue smiled and said, "Thank you, Imperial Physician Wang."

The imperial physician hastily lowered his head and said, "Don't dare."

Pei Yue gave Wei Rui a wink, and the latter took out a 50 tael bank note and stuffed it into the hands of Imperial Physician Wang.

Pei Yue said gently: "A little bit of kindness, please don't refuse the Imperial Physician Wang."

Imperial Physician Wang didn't dare to refuse, and after accepting the banknote, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for the reward, Marquis Pei, and the villain will take my leave first."

He is a smart man, of course he can see that the tiger generals next to him are holding back a lot of words, and it is obviously not suitable for him to stay here.

Pei Yue nodded slightly, and after the imperial physician left, Qin Xian said worriedly: "Brother Yue, who is so daring to order an assassin to assassinate His Majesty?"

Pei Yue signaled everyone to sit down, looked at Qin Xian and said, "Brother, do you have any guesses?"

Qin Xian shook his head and said, "How dare you speculate about this kind of thing? Just to tell you the truth, I've always been worried in my heart, thinking that this matter will not be that simple."

Pei Yue glanced over one by one, keeping everyone's expressions in mind, and then said in a relaxed tone: "You don't have to be nervous, this kind of assassination is a one-shot deal, but it can't be done again. Your Majesty is now on guard, Ting Wei The vigilance is also strengthened, there are our people inside and outside the city, and there will be no more danger."

Everyone thought about it carefully, and soon agreed with Pei Yue's statement.

There are multiple protections of light and shade around the emperor, and only a short-term flaw will appear when the Circular Mound Altar is offering sacrifices to the heavens.Although the Assassin was able to seize this opportunity is shocking, it is obviously whimsical to want to repeat the trick.Now the Wuding Guards are guarding the city, and the Zangfeng Guards are patrolling outside the city. Even if the Western Wu or Southern Zhou armies attack, they can protect the safety of the emperor.

Pei Yue chatted and laughed with the generals, and saw that their mood gradually calmed down, he said solemnly: "I have some arrangements next, you should listen carefully."

Everyone got up immediately, and the atmosphere in the hall was solemn, as if they were back on the battlefield of the Western Region where the gold and iron horses were on the battlefield.

Pei Yue said: "The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is over. Your Majesty will return to Beijing tomorrow morning. Qin Xian led Wu Dingwei to set off at the beginning of Maoshi, and went to Songyang Town, which is more than [-] miles southwest, to station. After His Majesty enters Beijing, he will return to Beiying."

Qin Xian cupped his hands and said: "Follow the order!"

Pei Yue said again: "Tang Linfen led [-] riders to station at Qingyuan Town, more than [-] miles southeast, and set off at the beginning of Mao."

Tang Linfen said loudly: "Follow the order!"

The two orders of Pei Yue seemed ordinary, but the generals in the hall were very familiar with the terrain around the capital, and quickly realized that the two places chosen by his Lord Hou just happened to be able to monitor the West Camp and South Camp of the Beijing Army.Although such a move would inevitably be a bit of a fuss, after all, the Beijing camp will never become a rebellion, but they will not question it, because after the battle in the western region, these people have already formed the habit of absolutely obeying Pei Yue's orders.

Pei Yue nodded slightly, and finally looked at Wei Rui and said, "You bring the main force of the Zangfeng Guards to accompany you as an escort. After His Majesty enters Beijing, you will lead Chen Xianda back to the North Camp together."

Wei Rui agreed.

At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded outside, and then a group of people walked into the small courtyard, and the leader was Emperor Kaiping.

Followed by Liu Xiang, governor of the Xingliang Mansion, and some other palace officials carrying food boxes, and dozens of court guards accompanying him for protection.

Pei Yue hurriedly got up and went forward to salute.

Emperor Kaiping looked gentle, shook his head and said: "You are injured now, so you don't need to abide by the etiquette."

Pei Yue said calmly but stubbornly: "Thank you for your kindness, but etiquette cannot be broken."

Emperor Kaiping looked at his slightly pale face, then glanced at the generals standing in the hall, and asked with great interest, "What were you talking about just now?"

Pei Yue briefly explained his arrangement.

Emperor Kaiping nodded and said: "It's true to be careful, your thoughts are indeed very meticulous. But since you have been injured, you just need to recuperate honestly. Why do you refuse to relax for half a day?"

Liu Xiang, who was standing by the side, complimented: "The Marquis of Zhongshan was young and loyal. This is because His Majesty has the insight to know people, so that the country has one more handsome man who can recruit and fight well."

Emperor Kaiping smiled lightly and said: "Uncle, don't do that, this kid always dares to talk back to me, if you continue to boast, how will I discipline him in the future?"

Although these words sounded like belittlement, they could not hide the meaning of respect and closeness at all.Liu Xiang sighed in his heart, but he didn't feel jealous, because he knew that Pei Yue was able to get such treatment because of his hard work.

Emperor Kaiping asked again, "Can I still drink wine?"

Pei Yue blinked and said, "Doctor Wang didn't say you can't drink."

Emperor Kaiping laughed loudly, Liu Xiangxin understood, and immediately asked those palace people carrying food boxes to set up a banquet in the side hall.

After a while, a table prepared by the palace chef was set up in the side hall. Emperor Kaiping got up and said to Pei Yue, "Come, have dinner with me."

He paused suddenly, looked at Liu Xiang who looked respectful, and said with a smile, "Uncle Huang is coming to have a drink too?"

Liu Lian hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I dare not disturb Your Majesty's elegance."

Pei Yue turned to look at him.

Emperor Kaiping didn't take it seriously, and said indifferently: "That's fine, Uncle Huang can go and do his own work, you don't need to stay here."

Everyone saluted and left, Emperor Kaiping didn't even stay behind the palace servants who were in charge of serving, only the monarch and his ministers were left in the side hall.

"sit."

Emperor Kaiping pointed to the opposite position, and said in a nonchalant manner: "Those two assassins have committed suicide."

Pei Yue looked as usual, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, even if the assassins are dead, I don't believe that they can erase all traces. The eunuch will not suddenly go crazy and assassinate His Majesty. His life experience and background cannot be hidden. The trajectory of activities in the palace will also have strange things. As long as His Majesty sends someone to investigate, they will definitely find out some clues. As for the two assassins, how did they get into the Circular Mound Altar? Traces will be left behind."

Emperor Kaiping looked at the table of delicacies in front of him, but did not move his chopsticks for a long time, and said with a chuckle: "It seems that your previous deduction is very close to the truth of the matter."

Pei Yue was silent for a moment, then said softly: "Your Majesty, do you really want to do that?"
