Chapter 141: Marriage Conditions

The World Heroes 146_The World Heroes full text is free to read_Chapter 146: Returning to your hometown overnight comes from

Lu Yu walked into the room and saw Pei Ju sitting on the couch with a cane, looking weak, looking very depressed, not even a hint of forced smile. // Baidu search                                          �

Thinking of how cunning Pei Ju was in the past, he didn't show any expressions about the big things, but now... Lu Yu sighed in his heart, Pei Ju is really old.

"Uncle Pei, please receive a gift from my nephew!"

Lu Yu stepped forward and gave a deep tribute. Pei Ju seemed to wake up from his dream, and a wry smile appeared on his face and said, "I am not feeling well and can't stand up. Don't blame me for being rude."

"Where! Where! Uncle Pei is an elder, I should respect Uncle Pei."

Pei Ju nodded and said to Pei Jin: "You may as well please sit down!"

Pei Jin quickly brought the couch, put on a cushion, and said respectfully: "Uncle Lu Er, please sit down!"

Lu Yu bowed his hand and sat down. He smiled at Pei Ju and said, "I know about Qingsong, but Qingsong cannot be blamed for this matter. It was not that he took the initiative to propose it, but His Highness of the King of Chu encouraged him to go to the county to practice."

"I knew he was stupid!" Pei Ju gritted his teeth.

In fact, Pei Ju had figured out the causal relationship. This must have been because of the Jade Seal incident that angered Yang Yuanqing. He warned the Pei family. It would be fine if it was just a warning, but he was afraid that Yang Yuanqing would decide to deal with the Pei family and suppress the Pei family's status in the new dynasty.

It was not until this time that he remembered the dispute between him and Pei Yun. Now it seems that Pei Yun is right. The Pei family is the Pei family and Yang Yuanqing of Yang Yuanqing.

As an emperor, he would not allow any family to threaten his status. He actually wanted to control the prince. Could Yang Yuanqing allow it?

Pei Ju fell into deep regret. The fundamental reason was not the burial of the jade seal. The burial of the jade seal was just an introduction. The fundamental reason was that he had taken the wrong course with Pei Yun back then.

Pei Ju bet Yang Yuanqing correctly, but turned Yang Yuanqing into his bonus. This is the problem.

But now I want to change it. It’s a bit late. Pei Ju feels that he has become the eternal sinner of the Pei family.

Lu Yu saw Pei Ju's thoughts. In fact, he was also worried about finding Pei Ju. He felt that Yang Yuanqing was deliberately suppressing the Shandong gentry. Although the external interests of suppressing the Lu family and the Cui family had passed.

But something that happened today made him feel very uneasy. Yang Yuanqing didn't allow him and Professor Cui Hongyuan to be the prince, obviously because he was afraid that they would instill the ideas of aristocratic families in him.

This shows Yang Yuanqing's attitude towards the aristocratic family from one side, which makes Lu Yu very worried. He comes to ask Pei Ju for advice, but Pei Ju was hit harder.

However, Lu Yu knew that the Pei family actually had hope. But the Pei family's hope was in the future, so he tactfully said: "An interesting thing happened in Ziwei Pavilion today. I wonder if Uncle Pei already knows it?"

Pei Ju woke up from his self-pity and asked listlessly: "What's the matter?"

"Today, His Highness the King of Chu brought the prince to Ziwei Pavilion and asked the prince of the Seven Prime Ministers to meet the government for one hour every day, for three consecutive months."

After Lu Yu said that, his eyes were fixed on Pei Ju. He didn't believe Pei Ju was not interested in this news. If Pei Ju really didn't react, then he would be really old.

Pei Ju was stunned at first. Then his eyes suddenly lit up, became energetic, and asked in surprise: "What you said is true?"

Lu Yu nodded, "Of course it's true!"

Pei Ju's dry heart seemed to flow into a gurgling spring. Of course, he knew the profound meaning of this, which means that Yang Yuanqing did not give up on the prince. As long as the prince could be kept, Minqiu's position as queen could be kept.

Then even if the Pei family is temporarily suppressed, as long as the prince ascends the throne in the future, the Pei family will still have hope of arise. Although this will happen decades later, Pei Ju still sees a glimmer of hope.

At this moment, Pei Ju was like a dead tree experiencing spring, and his mind regained his usual shrewdness.

Pei Ju turned around and glared at Changsun Pei Jin, "Why don't you report to me for such a big thing?"

Pei Jin hurriedly bowed and said, "The grandson doesn't know about this, and the grandson is not in Ziwei Pavilion."

This sentence obviously led Pei Ju's dissatisfaction to Pei Qingsong. Pei Ju's anger that had just calmed suddenly rose again. Qingsong really had no official mind. He didn't even say such a major matter, but asked Lu Yu to tell himself that it would be better if he didn't need such a Pei family.

Pei Ju restrained the anger in his heart. He glanced at Lu Yu and felt that Lu Yu had something to do. Pei Ju knew that Lu Yu would not come to the door just to tell his prince. He must have had other intentions, and his tone became kinder.

"Does Nephew Lu have any worries?"

"It's not that I have troubles, but that we Shandong gentry all have troubles."

Lu Yu sighed, "Your Highness doesn't allow Professor Cui Hongyuan and me to be the prince. It's obvious that he doesn't trust the aristocratic family!"

Pei Ju knew this question very well. He smiled and said, "Nephew Lu doesn't have to worry too much about the status of Shandong gentry in the future. Even if he doesn't like aristocratic families, he still wants to use it. He suppressed Shandong gentry now, in fact, just to leave a seat for the Guanlong nobles and Guanlong gentry in the future. Just seeing Wei Lun being promoted to the Records Office to join the army, you should understand it."

...........

Lu Yu said goodbye and left. Pei Ju sat alone in the room and was thinking quietly about countermeasures. At this time, he was calm and rational enough that he believed that he would not make the same mistake again.

For the Pei family, decades have only been a moment in a thousand-year-old family. As long as the talents are not lost, the Pei family will always be invincible.

Pei Ju sighed deeply. He wanted to go to the home school many years ago, but it has not been done until today. He said that in the last few years, he had to reply to Wenxi's clan and devote most of his wealth to the cultivation of his descendants.

So what if Yang Yuanqing cannot succeed in his life? Only if the Pei family has enough talents, then the spring of the Pei family will be after the prince ascended the throne.

Thinking of this, Pei Ju took out a piece of paper and started to write quickly. At this time, Pei Jin came back after sending Lu Yu, but he didn't dare to speak and stood quietly beside his grandfather.

Soon, Pei Ju wrote a text message, dried the ink marks, put them in the envelope, and carefully pressed the hot paint on it. He handed the letter to Changsun, "I will hand this letter to Yang Yuanqing for me tomorrow. Tell him that I have returned to Wenxi's hometown overnight."

Pei Jin was shocked, "Grandfather, why is this?"

Pei Ju smiled faintly. "This is my surrender to him. Since he warned me today, I have to give in. So I will leave Taiyuan tonight. Only in this way can the Pei family temporarily escape this disaster."

Pei Jin lowered his head sadly, and Pei Ju smiled and said, "This may be a good thing. I can focus on educating the children of the Pei family. This is my wish for many years, and it can be fulfilled."

Pei Ju sighed softly, and his tone became sad, "This farewell may be a farewell to him forever. Tell him for me that I have always missed meeting him for the first time at Princess Leping's house."

Pei Jin nodded silently and took the letter.

.........

Pei Qingsong did not live in Pei's mansion. Shortly after he served as the record office, Pei Ju gave him a small house. It covers only two acres of land, but it is enough for them to live in the family. The house is not far from Pei's mansion, and you can walk to it with an incense stick.

Pei Qingsong returned home with great worries. When he walked to the door, he saw someone standing at the door. He was stunned for a moment, "Who is it?"

"It's me, Pei joins the army."

The visitor stepped forward and bowed to him, "Your Highness invites you to Ziwei Pavilion."

Pei Qingsong recognized this person. He was a personal soldier beside the King of Chu. He looked at Ye Se. It was already very late. He couldn't help but hesitate, "Now?"

The personal soldier nodded, "Your Highness let you go now."

Pei Qingsong agreed. "Okay! I'll go now."

The personal soldiers led two horses, Pei Qingsong turned over and ran quickly towards Jinyang Palace with his personal soldiers.

......

The night was shrouded in Jinyang Palace, and all the officials had already been released to the court. The palace was particularly quiet. The lights were still on in the room of the King of Chu on the third floor of Ziwei Pavilion. Yang Yuanqing had not returned to the house. Today was his first day in court. The government affairs were particularly busy, and dozens of urgent memorials needed to be reviewed by him.

The light in the room was soft, and Yang Yuanqing was reviewing the memorials with all his concentration. A thick stack of them had been piled beside him. From morning to now, he had processed most of them, with only a dozen left. At most, he could handle them completely.

At this time, the door rang, and the voice of Zhang Liang, the military officer in the Records Room, came from outside, "Your Highness, Pei Zhengjun is here."

It was Zhang Liang's turn to be on duty tonight, and Zhang Liang was about to resign and became the prefect of Qiao County. The chief of Xihe County, Wei Lun, will take over his military position, and Pei Qingsong's military position will be replaced by the chief of Mayi County, Chu Suiliang, to take over.

"Let him come in!" Yang Yuanqing did not look up and continued to review his memorials.

Pei Qingsong walked into the room with great worries. He didn't know what the King of Chu would do to him so late? Although he has not officially resigned now and has to wait for Chu Suiliang to come from Mayi County to hand over, but he was not on duty tonight. Generally, the King of Chu would not look for him. He intuition told him that the King of Chu should be related to the matter during the day.

"See Your Highness!" Pei Qingsong stepped forward and gave a deep salute.

Yang Yuanqing looked up at him and asked with a smile: "You must be scolded by the head of the family today!"

Pei Qingsong nodded silently, "Just just now, he was scolded by the head of the family."

"This is understandable. You were originally a military officer in the Records Office, but you wanted to be a local official. Your head really couldn't figure it out!"

Pei Qingsong lowered his head and said nothing. Yang Yuanqing thought for a while and said meaningfully: "Okay! I will give you another chance to choose. You can stay and continue to serve as my account room to join the army, or you can serve as the chief of Nanyang County, you can choose."

Pei Qingsong bit his lips tightly. Although he knew that he should stay for the sake of family interests, he finally shook his head, "I don't want to stay, I'm willing to go to Nanyang County."

"Why? Is the family not important?" Yang Yuanqing asked in confusion.

"Although the family is important, my dream..."

Pei Qingsong sighed, "The family does not lack a record room to join the army, but this is my life choice, and I will never regret it!"

Yang Yuanqing smiled with praise. He stood up and walked to Pei Qingsong, patted his shoulder heavily, and looked at him and said, "Go to Nanyang County to do your best and achieve political achievements. Five years later, I will promote you to Jingzhao Yin."

Pei Qingsong suddenly felt moved to cry.

...........

That night, a carriage drove out of Pei Mansion under the escort of several horse-riding entourages, and before the city gate was closed, it drove out of Taiyuan City and headed towards Wenxi County in the south.
