Invincible son

Chapter 948 947 [Ready to go]

Zhongshan Marquis Mansion, the flower hall of the back house.

"Three."

"Hey, I messed up."

Gu Zhen's pretty face flushed slightly, she pushed down the cards in front of her one by one, and looked at the bully sitting opposite with a little complacency.

Pei Yue reluctantly put down the three-of-a-kind card, then leaned forward to look at Gu Zhen's card, and helped her count the points of the winning card, and said with a sad face: "Young lady is so lucky, I won two coins again .”

One word after another is heartbreaking.

Standing behind him, Tao Hua held the silver with crooked smiling eyes, and sent it to Gu Zhen's big maid.

"Wait." Lin Shuyue softly called out to Tao Hua, blinked at Pei Yue and said, "Young master, you made a mistake. If you follow the rules you taught us before, Sister Gu will have three coins for playing cards this time." .”

Pei Yue said in shock, "Really?"

Ye Qibai, who was sitting at the west end, gave him a white look, and said with a smile: "You are not ashamed if such a big Marquis wants to renege on his debts? If it weren't for Sister Lin to help us watch over us, I don't know how much I have been cheated on today." .”

Lin Shuyue is now in charge of the management of Qinyuan and Xiangyun in the capital, plus her experience in the past two years and her talent in accounting, she has already developed a pair of sharp eyes.After Pei Yue taught everyone the rules of mahjong, she comprehended the fastest and calculated the points very accurately.

Pei Yue sighed: "With Shuyue here, how can I waste your money. Look, it's only been playing for an hour, and the box is almost empty."

The maids who were waiting nearby were full of envy. How many men in this world are willing to play with their wives and concubines?Not to mention that the person in front of him is a first-class prince with real power.

Tao Hua came behind Pei Yue, and took out another penny from the box on the plum-blossom incense table with red lacquer inlaid with enamel, at this moment Gu Zhen smiled and said to Pei Yue, "Thank you, Mr.

Looking at her bright smiling eyes, Pei Yue felt quite happy in his heart, and said with a pitiful face, "You're welcome, just be merciful, madam."

If outsiders were to hear what they called each other, they would definitely be confused.

According to the current etiquette, Ye Qi and Gu Zhen can be referred to as sisters, while Lin Shuyue and Tao Hua must address them as Madam, this is the etiquette cannot be broken.But within the Zhongshan Hou Mansion, they all referred to each other as sisters, and did not enforce the distinction between wives and concubines.

What surprised Pei Yue even more was that he didn't make any similar request, it was a spontaneous agreement between them.

Of course, Taohua has an ignorant temperament and is not deep in the world, but Lin Shuyue, who was born in a family of officials, will not ignore etiquette.At first, she acted strictly according to the etiquette, but Ye Qi quickly changed it and let her and Taohua remain the same.

As for Pei Yue himself, he and Ye Qi called each other Mrs. Husband and Mrs. Husband, but when they came to Gu Zhen, they became Mrs. Husband and Mrs. Husband.Lin Shuyue and Taohua still called him Young Master as usual, they didn't follow the national etiquette to call him Lord Marquis, nor did they change their name to Master because he established his own family.

In short, this big family does not seem to intend to abide by the ethics of this world, so there is a kind of warmth.

The game continued, and this novel way of entertainment was obviously written by Pei Yue.Compared with existing pastimes such as leaf tiles, mahjong is obviously more interesting, and it is very easy to learn, which quickly attracted these charming wives and concubines.

With Pei Yue's current wealth and status, it is easy to get a pair of mahjong tiles made of white jade, but he does not have the habit of extravagance.Besides, he didn't want to show off his wealth, but because the girls in the mansion tended to get tired easily in spring, he asked a craftsman to make a few sets of mahjong, and he was warmly welcomed by them.

It's a pity that he has always been a loser at the poker table. At first, he really let go of the water deliberately. He never thought that their level would improve so fast, but after six or seven games, they had already become masters.

Ye Qi played a piece of [-], and then said calmly: "It's not peaceful outside recently, it's hard for you to have time to accompany us."

The others couldn't help pricking up their ears.

While sorting out the cards, Pei Yue smiled and said, "I am the master of suffering. Those people wish that I would be intoxicated in the gentle country. It is best not to even go to Beiying, and just be a rich and idle person."

Ye Qi looked at him thoughtfully, and said softly, "Will you annoy the one in the palace if you ask that Mr. Qian to take off the cover directly?"

Pei Yue gave her a reassuring look, and said calmly: "Lan Zhiqiu and Wang Jiuxuan are colluding and sent people to Nan Zhou to assassinate me. If His Majesty doesn't punish me severely, who will dare to be a loyal minister in the future?"

Gu Zhen's heart tightened when she heard that, when she traveled south last year, she saw all the scenery in the world, but Pei Yue encountered dangers one after another. Although she knew that he didn't want to worry about herself, she couldn't help feeling touched and afraid at this moment.

When her thoughts were flying, the game of cards was insignificant, and she played a five-barrel casually.

"Haha, nonsense!"

Pei Yue pushed the cards away, and said happily, "Lady, my deck of cards is not small."

When she was happy, a servant girl came in and said: "Master Hou, Commander Deng is asking to see you, and he is waiting in the study outside."

Pei Yue waved his hand and said, "No hurry, let's settle the score first."

"Go, go." Ye Qi got up and pushed him away, angrily said: "Hurry up and go to your business, let Taohua play with us."

Pei Yue sighed helplessly, making everyone laugh.

When he came to the outer study in a happy mood, he saw that Deng Zai was also full of excitement, and said loudly: "Master, Wang Jiuxuan is finished!"

Pei Yue frowned slightly, pointed to the table and said, "Sit down, let's talk about it in detail."

After Deng Zai took his seat, he couldn't hide his excitement and said: "The palace has issued an imperial decree through the two governments. Because of Wang Jiuxuan's lack of virtue and abuse of power, he will be dismissed from the post of commander of the imperial army, deprived of his birth, and demoted to a commoner. Employment. Young master, after the head of money sent Lan Zhiqiu to the palace, the court has become a mess in the past two days. Some people demanded that Lan Zhiqiu and Wang Jiuxuan be severely punished, while other ministers targeted Lan Zhiqiu and Wang Jiuxuan. Xiongwu Hou Lanyu, the rest are silent."

He paused, then continued: "According to the law of Daliang, all murderers should be punished for three years, but Wang Pingzhang asked to stay true, and the content of the long conversation with His Majesty cannot be ascertained, and this decree came out afterwards."

Pei Yue sneered and said, "The old tortoise is afraid. He thought that as long as Wang Jiuxuan left Beijing, he would be in danger. The so-called instigator has no heirs. Wang Jiuxuan sent people to murder me. Wang Pingzhang naturally thought that I would retaliate. I just don't know. What price did he pay this time to make His Majesty let go. By the way, where is Lan Zhiqiu?"

Deng Zaidao: "In addition to being demoted to a commoner, he will be exiled to the Zhenxiong Mansion three thousand miles away, and will not be pardoned for life."

Pei Yue asked curiously, "Where is that place?"

Deng Zai said with a smile: "Zhenxiong Mansion is located in the southwest of Yuzhou, among the [-] mountains. It is said that there is dense miasma, fierce beasts everywhere, and the environment is extremely dangerous."

"Your Majesty has found a good place for him." Pei Yue also smiled, and then said: "You write down the attitudes of all civil servants and martial arts in this matter, organize them into a file and send them here."

"Yes, master." Deng Zai responded respectfully, and found that Pei Yue did not show any excitement, he couldn't help saying empathetically: "It's still too cheap for them. Although such punishment is justified according to the law, the young master is in In a foreign country, working hard for the country, but being plotted by our own people, His Majesty did not execute them."

Pei Yue shook his head, and said calmly: "I have already gained the upper hand in the Northern Suburbs. According to His Majesty's habit, I will definitely not be too complacent in the future. It has exceeded my expectations to achieve this level, but..."

Seeing this, Deng Zai asked, "Master, what's the matter?"

"Wang Pingzhang is more tolerant than I imagined, but he can even accept such a result, which shows that this person has bigger plans." Pei Yue's expression gradually became serious, and he asked in a low voice: "The Ministry of Industry is investigating How's it going?"

Deng Zai responded: "There have been some gains."

Pei Yue nodded, and after a moment of contemplation, he said resolutely, "Get ready to do it."

Deng Zai responded awe-inspiringly: "Yes!"
