Chapter 591 Unworthy descendants
Chapter 591 Unworthy descendants (thanks to Xu 79 for the reward)
Zhuangzi belongs to Pei's property. Because of the busy government affairs, Pei Ju is usually handed over to Pei Ning to take care of it.However, he knew more about every plant and tree in the manor than Pei Ningwen.
Tonight, King Zhao suddenly found him and said that he would take him to enjoy a good show. At that time, he thought it was very fresh and interested.
But when they came to this manor, Pei Ju's mood immediately became heavy, and he subconsciously guessed that this good show might have something to do with his Pei family.
At first, he thought that the disciples of the Pei family had done something corrupt and perverted the law, which aroused King Zhao's anger, so he brought him over to expose it on the spot.
But he never expected that the person who was corrupt and broke the law was actually his eldest grandson, Pei Ning, who was involved in such a felony as smuggling military horses!
Back then, the theft of ordnance caused a lot of trouble in the city, and the value of military horses was not much lower than that of ordnance, and even because it was a strategic resource, it was even worse.Usually, the imperial court issued repeated orders not to allow a horse to flow into the hands of the enemy.
But now, his grandson is hundreds of war horses.
How many heads does Pei have enough to chop off?
Pei Ju is not a fool. It is impossible to smuggle so many military horses with Pei Ning's knowledge alone. If Pei Ning's investigation continues, the officials of the Pei family who secretly helped him will definitely be uprooted!
Those Pei officials probably didn't know that Pei Ning was secretly smuggling military horses.
What scares Pei Ju the most is that if King Zhao pursues the case blindly, the entire Pei family will suffer, and more importantly, he is likely to be convicted of covering up.
Mrs. Pei, how could such an idiot be put on the table!
"What is Mr. Pei doing? Get up quickly. Qingque can't be like Mr. Pei." Jiang Chengxiao helped Pei Ju up with a calm expression.
"The old minister is not strict in teaching his grandson. The old minister is guilty. He is ashamed of the court and the king." Pei Ju burst into tears.
Don't cry at this time, it will be too late to cry when King Zhao sets the tone.
"Hey, Mr. Pei. I'm not talking about you alone. It's the truth to raise a man poorly, but you can't treat him too harshly. Pei Ningwen, although I don't know what kind of person he is, he is also the eldest grandson of the Pei family. Guxiang, like this Such a person, if he hadn't been stretched, would he have made such a bad plan." Jiang Chengxiao looked regretful.
These words sounded terrible to Pei Ju, the last thing he wanted to hear at this time was King Zhao talking about him, because it meant that King Zhao would not let the Pei family go.
"Your Majesty, the family is unlucky, and this little bastard has come out. The old minister must ask a monk to deal with it when he returns home. He will definitely give the King a satisfactory explanation. Please trust the old minister!"
"Pei Gong, do you know who is the person who met Pei Ning?" Jiang Chengxiao said softly.
Pei Ju shook his head blankly, how could he know who was hooking up with Pei Ning.
"The man's name is Ma Zheng, and he is Xu Guo's secret agent hidden in Taiyuan."
The voice was light and light, with no strength at all, but this sentence itself was no less than a heavy hammer and sparks hitting his forehead to Pei Ju.
His mind went blank for a moment.
If it was said that Pei Ning was simply selling war horses, Pei Ju was confident that he would be able to stand up to this charge, but if it involved the secret operations of the enemy country, such a charge would not be able to protect him even when the king of heaven came.
What the king said!
Pei Ju's lips trembled, and the trace of luck in his heart disappeared in an instant.Since King Zhao said that Ma Zheng was Xu Guoxie, he must have investigated his true identity a long time ago, so there is no need to question it.
Jiang Chengxiao continued: "Actually, very early on, the lonely people discovered that there were people smuggling military horses in Taiyuan City. At that time, the lonely people stopped the soldiers, just to catch them all. Among them, they discovered this Ma Zheng."
"This person has a good relationship with Sang Lou, the owner of Sang's Restaurant. The two of them are apparently merchants from the Central Plains, but in fact they are the secret agents of Xu Guo who broke into Taiyuan. Oh, by the way, that Sang Lou is Pei. The son-in-law who is in charge of the public house is also a member of your Pei family."
Pei Ju's face was pale, and he was about to fall when his body softened. Nan Jiyun's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, and he reached out to support him.
Jiang Chengxiao continued: "Later, the lonely man finally found out all the strongholds of Ma Zheng in Taiyuan, and the secret posts and posts along the way. However, at this time, he found that many secret posts and posts were arranged in Peiyuan. The manor of the family's estate, or the caravan of the Pei family, this surprised Gu very much."
"In addition, it was later discovered that Pei Ningfu was also involved. I guess, could it be that Pei's family is also involved?"
"Absolutely not!" Pei Ju interrupted with a hoarse voice when Jiang Chengxiao hadn't finished speaking.
He didn't dare to listen to King Zhao go on, he didn't dare to listen.
Jiang Chengxiao was not angry, and reached out to gently close the window.
"Pei Gong, don't you understand the meaning of Gu?" Jiang Chengxiao turned his back to him, reached out and gently approached the flame on the candle, stopped at a distance of one finger, and quietly felt the trace of the flame through the palm of his hand. A burning sensation.
The room was silent, except for Pei Ju's heavy breathing which was particularly loud.
At this moment, although Pei Ju was severely hit by the successive facts, he forced himself to keep the spirit platform clear.
He is chewing the words of the king.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he understood a little.
That's right, if the king really finds out that Mrs. Pei and Xu Guo are connected, will he still appear here tonight?
I'm afraid he was captured by the wolf-like Black Eagle Army long ago.
However, King Zhao brought him here, which is giving him a chance!
A chance for redemption!
With this in mind, Pei Ju struggled to stand up.
"My Majesty, please point out the direction for the guilty minister. The guilty minister is very grateful." Pei Ju said sincerely.
Although he doesn't know what King Zhao is thinking at the moment, and he doesn't even know why this bastard Pei Ningfan has hooked up with Xu Guoxi, but he knows that it is true that King Zhao gave him a chance.
Pei Ju's guess was right. At the beginning, Jiang Chengxiao really suspected that Pei Ju was also involved, so he made all efforts to investigate the collusion between Pei Ningwen and the Pei family.
In the end, it was discovered that Pei Ju didn't actually know about it, and most of the time it was Pei Ning'an who did it privately.
That's why Jiang Chengxiao brought Pei Ju to enjoy this good show this time.
If Pei Ju really hooked up with Xu Guo, he would not see the sun the next day.
Jiang Chengxiao turned around and looked at Pei Ju. The faint uneasiness on the latter's face showed that the old fox was in a mess at the moment.
"Pei Gong, I ask myself, I am very lenient towards the Pei family. Ning Qing and Yuan Yan, one literary and one military, are Gu's right-hand men. Ning Qing has done a good job in Loufan County. I often see it vaguely. In Ning Qing, I can see the shadow of you, Mr. Pei, when you were young."
"Your Majesty, guilty minister." Pei Ju's face was ashamed, how could he not know that what King Zhao said was true.
Didn't he himself see Ning Qing as his future successor?
After a pause, Jiang Chengxiao went on to say: "Not to mention Yuan Yan, he followed Gu Nan to conquer the North War early on, and Gu Chang talked to him about everything in the army. Gu asked himself, and never did anything that would harm Pei's family." Things, why does Mrs. Pei treat Gu so much?!"
What Jiang Chengxiao said was sincere, what he said was aggrieved, and what he said was that Pei Shi was ruthless.
"The guilty minister is guilty!" Pei Ju's eyes were moist.
Although he felt weird in his heart, he couldn't think too much at the moment, so he could only cooperate with the performance.
Jiang Chengxiao nodded his eyes vaguely, sobbed his nose twice, as if he was really crying.
There was no room for Pei Ju not to feel ashamed, no room for him not to feel uncomfortable.
Your Majesty, I am really disappointed with the Pei family.
After a while, Jiang Chengxiao calmed down his emotions and said slowly: "Gong Pei, I am not a heartless person. Back then, I entered Taiyuan in a weak body. Without the help of the Pei family, I would not have achieved great success alone. Today, I will not be alone because of Pei." Please rest assured that Mr. Pei is involved with Ning Fan."
Hearing this, Pei Ju not only did not heave a sigh of relief, but felt gloomy in his heart.
Pei's good impression in King Zhao's mind has been wiped out by this incident.
Pei Ju said bitterly: "Your Majesty, the guilty minister will definitely capture that little beast and hand it over to His Majesty for disposal!"
At this moment, he had the intention to kill Pei Ningfan.
"Pei Gong, you still don't understand Gu's love for Pei's family." Jiang Chengxiao sighed, and said, "Do you think Gu asked you to come here just to tell you about this?"
Pei Ju was puzzled, and looked up at Jiang Chengxiao in confusion.
"What does His Majesty mean?"
"Gu will give Mrs. Pei a chance to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds, but I need Mr. Pei's help. If this happens, I will deal with Mrs. Pei and Pei Ning leniently at that time."
"Please make it clear, the king, the old minister will obey everything." Pei Ju said in a firm voice.
Jiang Chengxiao walked over and murmured a few words in front of Pei Ju.
Gradually, Pei Ju's eyes became brighter.
After a while, Pei Ju cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the old minister knows what to do."
"Good." Jiang Chengxiao smiled and said, "I'm waiting for the good news from Mr. Pei."
After all, both of them showed a little smile.
