Chapter 419 I agree

'I will not treat you badly. '

These words echoed in Pei Mo's ears, and he was in a daze back to the time when his mother and concubine were still alive.

At that time, he was still called Sheng Xiujing, Jingxing Fenghuang's Jing, it was said that it was raining on the day he was born, but the rain stopped when he uttered his first cry, and colorful auspicious clouds appeared in the sky, dazzling The sun pierced the thick clouds, and the rain was over.

Jingxing Qingyun, Haiyan Heqing.

The emperor loved the child born to Concubine Ru, and even decreed to amnesty the world, exempting commoners from land taxes for three years, and convicts from hard labor. thousands of miles.

At that time, people only knew Rufei, but they didn't know that being the Queen of the Central Palace was a great honor, and it was also a high-hanging guillotine.

The emperor held Rufei high, but he didn't prepare a soft cushion for her when she landed.

He was almost five years old at that time, and after the prince had finished school, he sneaked into the palace of his mother and concubine, only to find his mother and concubine sitting by the bed crying, and then his father and concubine softly comforting him.

'Okay, don't cry, I won't treat you badly. '

Has the emperor said this over and over again, is it still credible and worthwhile?

Escaping from his dusty memory, Pei Mo's expression did not change, but there seemed to be a huge stone weighing tens of thousands of catties on his heart.

"Why did the emperor treat you badly? If it wasn't for the emperor's appreciation, I'm afraid I would still be an unknown little pony pawn in the army. How can I wear this unicorn official robe?"

Dashun is a first-rank military general whose official robes are embroidered with unicorns. In Dashun, only Pei Mo can wear the unicorn official robes. Others don’t have such an honor. Now, Fang Anren has also changed into a third-rank official robe. leopard robe.

Pei Mo sneered, his mother and concubine were deceived by such words, and the old emperor wanted to repeat the old tricks. Could it be that killing his mother and concubine was not enough, but coming to kill him?

An unknown fire rose in Pei Mo's heart.

If it was in the past, his heart would not fluctuate because of the emperor's vague words, but now it is different, he has experienced stroking Murong Qing's pregnant belly at night, feeling the subtle vibrations coming from inside, feeling that kind of feeling. Unexplainable fetters and concerns.

Unfortunately, he and this child were destined to miss out.

Because he was so worried and worried that he regained his memory in the valley, and the days after he brought Murong Qing back to Beijing were painful and unforgettable.

So he couldn't understand even more, no matter how poisonous a tiger is, it still doesn't eat its cubs, and a human's heart is full of flesh, how could the emperor helplessly watch his wife and children be framed and die tragically!
The more incomprehensible, the more injustice in the heart, and only injustice will there be resentment.

The emperor was at a loss for Pei Mo's sudden sarcasm. He turned around and wanted to approach Pei Mo, but stopped three steps away.

The emperor paused. What is he doing to appease Pei Mo now?
"It's my fault what happened many years ago, but those things have already passed..."

The emperor's words came to an abrupt end here, his cloudy eyes no longer looked at Pei Mo, but slightly lowered his eyebrows and stared at the floor under his feet, the floor was polished by the servants, and even the shadow of a person could be reflected.

He saw himself in a blur under his feet, and Pei Mo, who was tall and tall not far away. He was clearly within reach, but seemed to be separated by thousands of miles.

This sentence angered Pei Mo even more, what is the past?

Now everyone who has sorry for her mother has paid the price, why is this old emperor still sitting on the dragon chair with infinite glory, nothing is affected, he is still so high above, not stained with a trace of filth, he is shameless and pretends to be aboveboard.

"The past..."

Pei Mo stopped suddenly, and he returned rationally. What does the emperor mean by this, and why did he say that?
Could it be that he already knew that his was Sheng Xiujing?

Pei Mo was flustered for a short while, but soon he stabilized his mind, took a deep breath and said, "How can you blame the emperor for what happened in the past? The matter of hurting the Beiyi barbarians, the emperor has already given the matter to the humble minister." With enough rewards, it was Sheng Xiuyu who forced me to fall off the cliff, and the emperor also ordered him to be killed, so I have nothing to be dissatisfied with."

As he said that, he knelt down and kowtowed, not letting the emperor see the panic in his eyes, "I only want to take off my official robes in this life, and get rid of the mundane affairs. Please allow the emperor."

But he didn't know that the moment he knelt down, the emperor's footsteps moved slightly, and he took a small step inadvertently. On the bright yellow floor, he saw the old emperor with gray temples stretching out his hand, seemingly wanting to touch it. Touch that bent spine.

But in the end, the outstretched hand still stopped above.

A person who cannot be touched is like a warm sun that cannot be reached. After all, he will live in the ice cave he dug out by himself.

After a long time, the emperor withdrew his complicated emotions and palms, and turned his back again, as if he had no choice but to make up his mind and said, "That's all, I agree, Pei Aiqing, get up."

Very good!
Pei Mo was overjoyed, and didn't care what the emperor's words meant just now. In short, his goal was achieved.

At this time, the emperor changed the subject, "But I have a request."

Pei Mo's face suddenly darkened, the old emperor really wasn't so kind.

The emperor walked up to the jade bib with his hands behind his back and sat on the dragon chair, and then said, "Now that Sheng Xiuyu died, the border turmoil continued, the northern barbarians and the southern barbarians were waiting to see that I had no children under my knees, the court was in turmoil, Pei Aiqing, if rumors spread at this time With the news of your resignation, do you think those barbarians will revive and harass me in Dashun again?"

Pei Mo knelt on the ground, only then realized that he seemed a little reckless.

The emperor also said, "Now is the time when all kinds of things are waiting to be done, and there is no one available in the court. Can Pei Aiqing still remember that ten days later will be Qiu Wei, and one month later will be the imperial examinations?"

Pei Mo nodded, "Yes."

Recently, the world is either discussing the rebellion of the former second prince Sheng Xiuyu, or Qiu Wei.

Those scholars who have been favored by Sheng Xiuyu's philanthropic hall were found out by the local government and temporarily disqualified from this year's Qiuwei, so the remaining scholars cheered, how could it be unexciting to lose a lot at once!

"Well, it will take at least a month for Commander Fang to go to Xiguan, and it will take another month for Qiu Wei to release the list. I will allow you to resign, but Pei Aiqing will still be the general of the country in these two months. After two months, the border is established. Fang Anren, I have a new hero in my court, at that time I will give you the imperial decree, do you have any doubts?"

Thinking of An Ren who was about to go far away, Pei Mo felt heavy. He couldn't resign, so he had to send someone to follow him all the way, maybe two months, at least the emperor agreed.

"My humble servant bows to the emperor!"
