BXBX NOVEL Chapter 519: toxic man
The old emperor said disapprovingly: "If Pei Yi is not a man, then he should thank me for helping him prove his innocence."
Yan Luoyu lowered his eyes and said slowly: "Father, Pei Yi is the third son of the prime minister\'s mansion. If Pei Yi is slandered as a woman, and her clothes are taken off in public to prove her integrity, I\'m afraid it will be a big deal for the Pei family." It\'s too insulting."
The old emperor hesitated a little when he thought of Pei Shu\'s unprovoked appearance, but this hesitation was finally defeated by the heart that strongly wanted to find fault.
"I am the Son of Heaven. I have to do whatever I tell the Pei family to do, so why insult?" the old emperor said naturally.
Yan Luoyu looked down at the peony pattern on his wide sleeves, pursed his lips lightly and remained silent.
Seeing that she seemed lonely, the old emperor asked suspiciously, "You think what I did was wrong?"
Yan Luoyu shook his head slowly, and said in a low voice: "Father\'s move is very clever, and there is nothing wrong with it."
The old emperor narrowed his eyes slightly to look at her, and said with a smile: "Then why are you so unhappy? Could it be..."
The old emperor\'s complexion darkened, and he asked in a cold voice: "...You, like Yi Gu, also fell in love with Pei Sanlang?"
Yan Luoyu\'s eyes trembled slightly, and he said almost without thinking: "My son is not in love with Pei Sanlang."
The old emperor\'s heart that was raised suddenly came to fruition.
He was very grateful and said: "It\'s as long as you don\'t have any interest in Pei Sanlang."
"Earlier, Yi Gu shouted that he would not marry Pei Sanlang, and even went to Wanshou County for Pei Sanlang. He almost fell into danger and couldn\'t escape."
"Fortunately, Yi Gu has come to his senses now, a broken sleeve like Pei Sanlang who only likes men is not worth the effort."
"What\'s more, this Pei Jiasanlang is very likely to be a woman, how can there be any reason for a girl to be nostalgic?"
Yan Luoyu listened to the call in silence, noncommittal.
After a while, she asked solemnly in a very soft voice: "Father, when are you going to verify Pei Yi\'s identity?"
The old emperor said in a happy mood: "It\'s time to pick a date, but it\'s always in the next few days, and it can\'t be delayed any longer."
The main thing is to delay it further, I don’t know if there will be such a good situation now.
Nowadays, there are rumors and rumors everywhere in Kyoto that Pei Yi is actually a man. It is a good situation for the old emperor to use this opportunity to verify Pei Yi\'s identity—this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity should naturally be used well.
Yan Luoyu didn\'t say much, and silently listened to the old emperor finish all this.
The old emperor had great ambitions, as if he had seen a bright road that could completely overthrow the Pei family.
Yan Luoyu didn\'t comment on this road, but instead asked: "Royal Father, you granted a marriage to the second son of King Huainan to join the Bai family in the capital. Now that several months have passed, King Huainan still hasn\'t moved. When does Emperor Father plan to call Huainan Wang\'s family to Beijing to get married?"
The old emperor had been thinking about this matter all along, but now that something about Pei Jiasanlang suddenly appeared, he couldn\'t take care of it for a while.
"In Erchen\'s opinion, this matter must be implemented as soon as possible." Yan Luoyu gently pinched his wide sleeves, and said calmly, "Instead of dealing with the Pei family alone, it is better to let the Pei family and the Xiao family dog bite the dog."
The old emperor thought deeply, and said in a deep voice: "I will think about this matter again."
The father and daughter chatted for a while.
As the sky gradually darkened, Yan Luoyu got up to say goodbye.
She looked calm, and quietly rode to the gate of the palace, and then got into the carriage with the help of the little maid Zhichan.
Along the way, Yan Luoyu didn\'t say a word, his expression was cold and clear, as if he was worried about something important.
Under the acuity, people sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and each of them was more careful in doing things, and they didn\'t dare to touch bad luck at all.
After a while, the carriage stopped outside Princess Zhenguo\'s mansion.
The groom took out the horse stool as usual, and then asked the princess to get off.
Everything is as usual, but there is always something wrong.
In fact, everyone knows that it is Princess Zhenguo who looks wrong, and her aura is very wrong.
Yan Luoyu ignored the people\'s scrutiny, with a cold, beautiful face, step by step, he calmly stepped over the threshold and entered the mansion.
After returning to the dormitory, Yan Luoyu changed into comfortable clothes at home, and then asked his servants to ask about the situation in Kyoto in the past few months.
"During the two months that the princess was away, the capital has been relatively peaceful." The subordinate reported with all sincerity, "The only unusual thing may be that the third son Pei was rumored to be a woman. Now the rumors are spreading more and more. Lie, but everyone thought it was nonsense and didn\'t take it seriously."
Yan Luoyu smiled lightly, and teased: "It\'s more or less absurd to make people believe that a \'man\' is actually a woman. It\'s normal for people not to believe rumors."
The subordinate thought for a moment, and said calmly: "This subordinate thinks that the king of Huainan should take the next step."
Yan Luoyu frowned slightly, and asked inexplicably, "Next step?"
The subordinate said in a low voice: "This subordinate received the news from the spies that King Huainan found a strange horse and wanted to force Pei Yi to reveal his real body."
Yan Luoyuxiu frowned, feeling a little confused the more she listened.
She asked: "What kind of \'strange horse\'?"
The subordinate lowered his eyebrows and reported respectfully: "According to the spies, this \'strange horse\' only accepts men to ride. If a woman approaches it, it will definitely become violent."
Yan Luoyu was stunned and said, "Is there such a \'strange horse\' in the world? Is it really so spiritual?"
"This should be true." The subordinate said honestly, "There are also girls in our spies. Whenever these girls get close to the horse, the strange horse will become restless and look like it will kick people."
Yan Luoyu was secretly amazed, and said with a smile: "That\'s a woman pretending to be a man, can this strange horse be able to tell the difference?"
The subordinate shook his head and said: "That is unknown. But it is absolutely true that the women in the palace dare not approach that \'strange horse\'."
Yan Luoyu had a little confidence in his mind, and asked again: "Is there any other move for King Huainan?"
The subordinate kept bowing his head respectfully, not daring to raise his head to look directly at his master.
He reported carefully: "The king of Huainan has been busy planning how to prove that Pei Sanlang is a woman. According to reports from the spies, besides preparing a \'strange horse\', the king of Huainan also has other backhands. However, Such top secrets, the spies did not find out too much."
Yan Luoyu heaved a long sigh with unknown meaning, and said with some regret: "Pei Sanlang\'s current situation is too difficult."
The little maid Zhichan\'s face moved slightly, and she glanced at her master with hatred, wondering if the master is feeling sorry for Pei Yi?
"Go down." After listening to his subordinate\'s report, Yan Luoyu sent him down.
The subordinates respectfully took orders and left.
The sleeping hall suddenly became quiet.
Yan Luoyu sat silently on Luohan\'s bed, without speaking for a long while.
It wasn\'t until the hourglass passed two more scales that she pulled out of this state of sitting like an old monk, and said in a cold voice: "Zhichan, go grind."
"No." Zhichan responded respectfully, lowered her head and quickly ran to the desk, picked up the grinding rod and grinded ink in the inkstone.
Yan Luoyu silently watched her little maid grinding ink, her eyes stared for a long time without moving away, as if she was distracted, and seemed to be thinking about something important.
After a while, Yan Luoyu got up from Luohan\'s bed, then walked slowly to the desk and sat down.
She took off a writing brush from the pen holder, dipped it in the ground ink, and then picked up the brush to write quickly on the rice paper.
This letter is not too long, but the content is very concise.
Yan Luoyu quickly finished writing the letter, then dried the ink, and then solemnly handed the letter to the little maid Zhichan, and said in a deep voice: "This letter must be delivered to Mr. Pei personally."
The word "personally" is deliberately emphasized, which shows how confidential and solemn this matter is.
"I understand." Zhichan didn\'t dare to neglect at all, and accepted the task with a serious face.
It was already late at night, and it was inconvenient for Zhichan to visit Xiao Pei\'s mansion at night, so she planned to deliver the letter early tomorrow morning.
Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.
Qisha, as one of the heroes who suppressed the bandits this time, needs to follow the generals to meet the emperor in the palace.
However, the current emperor is busy exchanging father-daughter love with Princess Zhenguo, directly leaving all their generals aside.
The chief **** was very discerning, and smiled respectfully and sent the generals out of the palace, saying that his Majesty will hold a special banquet to reward the generals in the future.
This is very flattering and clever.
Youdao is a person who stretches out his hand and doesn\'t hit the smiling face.
The generals, who were a little bit resentful at first, saw that the chief **** had such a good attitude, and the dissatisfaction in their hearts slightly dissipated.
And after the chief **** said something more, the generals were already very upset, feeling that the current emperor is still very caring and considerate to the soldiers.
Qisha listened silently, secretly thinking that these generals are too simple-minded, so easy to be fooled by others.
However, these matters had nothing to do with him, so he didn\'t bother to remind these generals.
Besides, there is nothing wrong with the old emperor not meeting them.
It was because the old emperor had no intention of seeing them now that they could leave the palace blatantly and confidently.
And only by leaving the palace, can he return to Xiao Pei\'s mansion as quickly as possible!
He is eager to return now, he really wants to go back to Xiao Pei\'s mansion, and he really wants to see his sweetheart.
Just like that, Seven Kill followed a group of generals out of the palace gate, then got on his horse and quickly slipped away.
Some generals saw this situation, they were puzzled and said: "This little brother Pei is running very fast, who are you rushing to see?"
Han Jiuxiao is also among the heroes.
He secretly thought: Who else can I see? This Pei Wujiu must have gone home to meet his "husband".
However, these words are not suitable for Han Jiuxiao to disclose, so although he was clear in his heart, he remained silent on his face, with the same puzzled expression as the generals.
Another compartment.
Seven kills hit the horse and run wildly.
There are regulations in Kyoto that horses are not allowed to gallop in the city.
However, it was getting late today, and there were very few pedestrians on the road, so Qi Sha had no scruples, and directly urged the horse to run towards Xiao Pei\'s mansion.
He hurried so fast that he arrived at Xiao Pei\'s mansion after half an hour.
Pei Yi and Xiao Junji were chatting in the study, when they first heard that Qi Sha had returned, they hurried to the gate to greet them.
Of course, it was Pei Yi who really greeted her sincerely.
And Xiao Junji was just because his sweetheart went to see "Wild Man", so he had to stay by his sweetheart\'s side at all times, and that\'s why he walked towards the gate without saying a word.
"Sanlang~" Qi Sha hadn\'t seen his sweetheart for two full months, and now that he finally saw him, he felt so sweet in his heart that he even walked briskly, and ran towards Pei Yi happily.
However, at the moment when he was about to meet Pei Yi, a man stood between him and Pei Yi.
This man is Xiao Junji.
Qisha is so depressed.
He glanced at the love rival who prevented him from getting close to Saburo very disgustedly, but he didn\'t say anything sour.
The atmosphere suddenly became very awkward.
Pei Yi intends to deal with it coldly.
She didn\'t mediate between the two men, she just turned around and left.
Sure enough, when Qi Sha and Xiao Junji saw her, they turned around and left without looking back. Each of them didn\'t have the intention to "fight" with each other, and they just followed Pei Yi and left.
Pei Yi went straight to the study.
There are too many things to deal with recently, and she often has to work in the study until midnight.
After reaching the study room, the subtle hostility between the two men still existed, but the atmosphere was no longer so awkward.
Pei Yi opened her mouth to break the tranquility and said, "Wu Jiu, have you grown taller again?"
Qi Sha is not yet nineteen years old, and he is not short to begin with, but he keeps climbing upwards, just like a bamboo shoot that has broken through the soil, growing vigorously day by day.
Now, when Qisha heard that his sweetheart was concerned about his height—and even saw the change in his height at a glance, his heart was sweeter than eating honey, so he immediately replied sweetly: "Well, I have grown a little taller. .”
He ran in front of his sweetheart, gestured his wrist to his sweetheart\'s eyes, said with a bit of joy, but also with a bit of grievance: "The clothes are too short, and the sleeves are not long enough."
Pei Yi\'s heart trembled at the young man\'s appearance of complaining.
She smiled softly and said, "Let the tailor make some new clothes for you tomorrow."
"Yeah." Qi Sha nodded with a smile, and his heart became sweeter.
Xiao Junji silently watched his rival acting like a baby in front of his sweetheart, and the jealousy in his heart was suddenly overturned.
He walked up to Pei Yi calmly, and said sourly: "Sanlang, my clothes don\'t fit well."
Speaking of this, he glanced at Qisha with disgust, and said pointedly: "Although I haven\'t grown much recently, I have worn the clothes for some time now, and it\'s time to change to a new style." .”
Pei Yi had a headache when she heard this.
Obviously, these two men are comparing each other to be jealous again.
What can she do?
Of course it is Shunmao.
If she ignores Xiao Junji\'s appeal now, and cannot make a bowl of water level, then she will not have a good life tonight——Xiao Junji\'s vinegar vat, oh no, it should be said that this big vinegar vat will definitely make trouble A world turned upside down.
This is by no means Pei Yi\'s cowardice, or taking small problems too seriously. It is really a lesson of blood and tears.
Before, when Xun Huan was still in the mansion, the two men were often jealous of each other.
Pei Yi was careless at first, and didn\'t realize that she was favoring anyone.
But soon, the two narrow-minded men seized various "unequal" treatments and tried various tricks to ask for "privileges" in front of her.
Pei Yi was so annoyed that she finally realized that when it comes to treating men, the most important thing is to be "fair", and she must always remember that "a bowl of water is flat", and she must not let this group of jealous people get angry Chance.
So, just like now, when Xiao Junji pursed his mouth and made a request, Pei Yi immediately and keenly sensed the smell of jealousy, and immediately and keenly realized that she had just "partialized" the Seven Kills.
So, she decisively took remedial measures, and immediately softened her voice to comfort her: "Well, let the tailor make some new clothes for you tomorrow."
Xiao Junji was still dissatisfied, and said sourly: "I\'m not tall enough, and I don\'t know if a tailor can make clothes smoothly."
Pei Yi, one head and two big, thought to herself why is it so difficult to coax a man?
Actually, at the beginning, Pei Yi\'s way of dealing with it was very simple and rude—that is, just ignore her, pretend not to see it, and don\'t care what you guys do.
But it turns out that this simple and crude method will bring about extremely serious consequences, and the side effects are not usually large.
One of the most obvious and serious consequences is that this group of men feel that they can\'t get her attention, so they ask for attention in various ways, so that she is so tired of coping all day long that she doesn\'t even have the energy and time to do business.
Based on these lessons of blood and tears, now that Pei Yi heard Xiao Junji gossiping, she no longer dared to deal with it simply and rudely.
On the contrary, she calmed down very gently: "Now there are new styles on the market. Tomorrow, we will invite the tailor from Baoyi Shop to make the latest style. You must look good in it."
Xiao Junji felt that he was being treated, and finally a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said happily: "I knew that Sanlang loved me the most."
Qisha silently watched all this from the sidelines, his whole body soured into a lemon unknowingly, but he didn\'t speak in silence, just sulked there.
If this matter had been changed in the past, Pei Yi would not have been able to pay attention to these details.
However, in the past few months, Pei Yi has been deeply involved in the jealousy between Xun Huan and Xiao Junji.
The days of dire straits directly cultivated her unusually sharp mind.
Just like now, although Pei Yi didn\'t take care of Qi Sha\'s feeling for a while, she just glanced out of the corner of her eye, and she was very keenly aware of something wrong with Qi Sha.
So, the perceptive Pei Jiasanlang hurriedly coaxed: "Wu Jiu, you are also growing tall, and it\'s time to change into some new clothes."
Qisha felt sweet again when he heard that his sweetheart cared about him.
Although he didn\'t talk like Xiao Junji, but he thought very proudly in his heart: Saburo treats me really special, and he is not comparable to Xiao Junji\'s rogue~
Finally appeasing the two men, Pei Yi was free to talk about other things.
After getting enough attention from his sweetheart, Seven Kills finally had the heart to talk about serious business.
"Princess Zhen Guo is very good at buying people\'s hearts." Qi Sha frowned slightly, and said very vigilantly, "The soldiers who suppressed the bandits this time have a good impression of Princess Zhen Guo."
After thinking for a while, Qisha added: "Han Jiuxiao also has a good impression of Princess Zhen Guo."
Pei Yi is not very surprised by this result.
She knows what Yan Luoyu is capable of.
What\'s more, she sent such a large batch of medicinal materials in the name of Yan Luoyu, it is normal for the generals in the army to have a good impression of Yan Luoyu.
"Sanlang, are you not in a hurry for Princess Zhenguo to buy people\'s hearts in the military camp?" Xiao Junji asked with hatred.
Although he felt that he had too much romanticism in his head, and this kind of rotten problem really needed to be corrected, but his family Saburo\'s attitude of not caring about it really made him have to think about it.
Really, he really seriously doubts whether his Saburo is also interested in women?
Otherwise, why did Saburo think of Yan Luoyu in this matter of suppressing the rogues?
This is simply unreasonable!
Moreover, look, now that Sanlang heard that Yan Luoyu was buying people\'s hearts in the army, he didn\'t even look unhappy at all, but seemed happy to see the success.
Is this reasonable?
This is obviously a look of joy to see a daughter-in-law!
unacceptable!
The more Xiao Junji thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and he reminded bitterly: "Sanlang, I think Yan Luoyu has a lot of ambitions. If she is interested in the throne, how should you deal with yourself? Could it be...you still have to help her?" She\'s up?"
Qi Sha was taken aback, looked at Xiao Junji very strangely, and almost burst out: Are you insane?
Although he didn\'t say this, the meaning was clearly written on his face.
Xiao Junji was not surprised to see the strange words of his rival in love, and reminded him with disgust: "Mr. Qilang, don\'t you think that Yan Luoyu\'s ambition is not small at all?"
Qisha was already stunned.
Of course, what surprised him wasn\'t Yan Luoyu himself, but Xiao Langren\'s deduction about his sweetheart.
After being stupid for a long time, Qi Sha said with a complicated mood: "I think Princess Zhen Guo really wants to aspire to the high position. However, Saburo also has his own plan, how could it be possible to make wedding clothes for Princess Zhen Guo?"
Xiao Junji looked at a fool, and explained very worriedly: "Mr. Qilang, don\'t you understand that there is still love in the world? We, Sanlang, take good care of Princess Zhenguo. When this battle breaks out, Sending money, food, and medicinal materials, it’s almost giving everything that can be given, this is not love, so what is love?”
Pei Yi was almost speechless.
She felt that she must have black lines all over her head now.
She never dreamed that a man who was jealous could eat a woman\'s head.
This is outrageous!
And to slander her for being interested in a woman in front of her like this, how dare Xiao Junji? And to slander her for being interested in a woman in front of her like this, how dare Xiao Junji? How dare you? Sick, this stinky man! !
