Invincible son

Chapter 723 722 [Wind of the West]

After the banquet in the palace, Emperor Kaiping left Pei Yue alone, and the two monarchs and ministers discussed secretly for a long time.

No one knew the content of their conversation. At that time, there was no palace person in the imperial study room, and Li Zi, the commander of the Imperial Army, was personally guarding the door.

By the time Pei Yue left the palace, night had already fallen.

After a group of more than ten riders entered Yongrenfang in Dongcheng, Pei Yue chose to continue westward at a fork in the road, and his soldiers followed closely.

After a while, they came to the door of a magnificent mansion.

It was already night, and the concierge was surprised that there would be a visitor at this time, but he was even more shocked when he saw Pei Yue's face clearly.While ordering his servants to come inside to report, he hurriedly walked down the stone steps to greet him and said: "My villain pays homage to Marquis Pei."

"No need for Dolly, Master Shen is in the mansion?" Pei Yue jumped off the horse, and his own soldiers took the reins.

The porter bowed his head and replied: "Go back to Lord Hou, the master is in the mansion."

Pei Yue said casually: "Please lead the way, I have something important to discuss with Mr. Shen."

The concierge was puzzled, although the rare guest in front of him had only been here twice, but he was extremely impressed with Pei Yue.I still remember the first meeting a few years ago. At that time, Pei Yue was just a white-bodied bastard. Obviously Mo Moyun had agreed in advance, but he still stubbornly asked the porter to inform him first, and then he was willing to enter the mansion.

It was completely different tonight, but the concierge didn't see the slightest hint of arrogance on Pei Yue's face, instead he was a little dignified.He can be regarded as Mo Moyun's confidant, of course he understands the priority of the matter, so he didn't ask too much, and said respectfully, "Mr. Pei."

As soon as he came to the atrium, a servant stepped forward and said, "I'm reporting to Marquis Pei, my master is waiting in the study."

Pei Yue nodded slightly, and went straight to Shen's study.

After pushing the servants back, Mo Moyun looked at Pei Yue's dignified face, and asked, "When does Your Majesty order you to leave Beijing?"

Pei Yue replied: "After five days, we have to wait for the Southern Zhou mission to leave first, otherwise it will seem that we are too urgent. Besides, I still have a lot of things to arrange on hand, and Your Majesty knows this too."

Mo Moyun was naturally very surprised by Pei Yue's arrival. Although the young man sent Qinyuan shares before, this does not mean how close the relationship between the two parties is. Although many things in the past were inconspicuous, they can really show that Mo Moyun helped Pei Yue.

Whether intentionally or not, if Pei Yue deliberately pretends nothing happened, it will attract the attention of those who care about him.

But the sudden visit tonight, especially when Pei Yue just came out of the palace, naturally puzzled Mo Moyun.

Pei Yue was well aware of his doubts, and continued: "Master Shen, it is already the beginning of July."

Mo Moyun looked at the worry in his eyes, suddenly understood, and said slowly: "This doesn't explain anything."

Pei Yue sighed softly: "Of course I don't want my husband... After all, he saved me back then. If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have given in to Pei Rong and Pei Yun and his son again and again. But when we parted last year, my husband told me clearly that my husband Grandpa's body is difficult to support for too long, and after the last journey with the old grandpa, the husband will return to Kyoto. Now, in the past seven months, not only has the husband not returned, he has not even sent a letter, I really can't Rest assured."

Back then, on the island in the middle of the lake in the south of Lingzhou, Pei Yue saw Duke Ding Pei Zhen who had come back from the dead, and he also realized that his life was not long.At the time of farewell, Mr. Xi personally verified his guess. Originally, he only had to wait for a few months, but he never heard from Mr. Xi for such a long time.

Mo Moyun pondered and said: "The Duke of the Kingdom was famous for his superb martial arts back then, and his physical foundation is far superior to ordinary people. It is not surprising that this happened. However, I can understand your worries. What do you want me to do?"

Pei Yue secretly sighed that it was easy to talk to smart people, so he said bluntly: "I would like to ask Mr. Shen to send someone to the lake island in Lingzhou to see the situation there. It is best to see the gentleman."

Mo Moyun replied: "Okay."

Pei Yue cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, sir."

Mo Moyun shook his head and said: "This matter is also related to me, so why should you thank me? But I don't quite understand why you brought this up tonight. Could it be that what His Majesty said in the palace just now?"

Pei Yue said: "No, but when I was leaving the palace, I suddenly bumped into someone."

"Who?"

"Xiao Jin, Marquis of Xiangcheng."

As early as a month ago, Xiao Jin had already unloaded the heavy responsibility of Hucheng's camp and temperance, and returned to Beijing to take over the Kyoto garrison division. This was a transfer that had been made public a long time ago, and there seemed to be no problem.However, Pei Yue mentioned it so solemnly at this moment, which obviously showed that he had discovered something strange. Mo Moyun thought for a while, and couldn't help but change slightly.

With the friendship between Emperor Kaiping and Xiao Jin who have known each other for more than 20 years, and before the emperor ascended the throne, Xiao Jin was the most loyal supporter in secret. Could it be that he was really just guarding against the Western Wu cavalry after sitting in Hucheng for ten years?

It's not that Pei Yue doesn't believe Mo Moyun's position on this matter, but there are some words that need not be said, he changed the subject: "Master Shen, don't worry, even if I don't see Xiao Jin, I will come to the house tonight for advice Before that, in the imperial study, His Majesty ordered me to assist Han Shenzheng to solve the drought in Qinzhou on the way south, and this matter still needs the help of the Taiwan Pavilion."

When talking about business, Mo Moyun restrained his mind and asked seriously: "What are you going to do?"

Time passed quietly, and about half an hour later, Pei Yue got up to leave.

Mo Moyun sent him to the atrium, and when he turned around, he saw a slim and graceful figure.

"Daddy, when will Pei Yue go south?" Shen Danmo asked crisply.

Mo Moyun suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his heart, smiled and said: "A few days later, but this time you can't follow to the south."

There was a blush on Shen Danmo's fair cheeks, and she said softly: "Daddy, my daughter doesn't want to leave Kyoto."

Mo Moyun didn't want to expose her intentions. In fact, he also knew that as Pei Yue became more and more powerful, there would be no further possibility between Shen Danmo and him.After all, with my own status here, no matter how much Emperor Kaiping valued Pei Yue, it was impossible for him to be too close to Zuo Lingchen's only daughter in Taishitai Pavilion.

But Mo Moyun didn't feel guilty. Regarding the matter of letting Shen Danmo and Pei Yue communicate in private, he didn't think about the relationship between children, but had more far-reaching considerations.

Thinking of this, he suddenly said softly: "Mo'er, there is something I want to entrust to you as a father."

Shen Danmo was still immersed in that strange emotion, and said a little unnaturally after hearing the words: "Please tell me, Dad."

"Talk while you walk."

Mo Moyun walked first, walked slowly towards the inner house with Shen Danmo, and then narrated an extremely important matter.

The more Shen Danmo listened, the more surprised he became, and finally he blinked his bright eyes and asked, "Daddy, this matter..."

Shen Moyun looked at her with pity, and sighed: "Mo'er, maybe Daddy shouldn't let you get involved in these things, but he can't pretend to be someone else, so he can only let you do it."

There was a smile in Shen Danmo's eyes, and he said softly: "Daddy, you know what your daughter thinks, so it's good if you can do things."

Mo Moyun nodded in relief, and then said: "Don't worry, you still have a lot of time to plan."

"Daughter understands, Daddy can rest assured that daughter will do a perfect job."

Shen Danmo smiled sincerely, like a budding peony.
