Chapter Eleven The Drunkard Doesn't Want To Drink
The song ends.
Pei Shu gave a high-five and said, "Mr. Mu is worthy of being praised for his talent and beauty."
Mu Si stood up gracefully and bowed: "Young lady, I praise you so much. You are lucky enough to serve the noble man close by, and your poems, books and compositions are the best."
"Although I am not very talented at poetry, poetry, poetry and poetry, and I am not good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting, I am ashamed to say that I have both talent and beauty."
"Mr. Mu is being humble." Pei Shu raised her fan and pressed it down, making a gesture to prevent him from saluting. The next moment she said something shocking: "It is reported that Sanlang Huai is staying at your place. I wonder if you can introduce him to him?"
Huai Sanlang Huai Zuo, the son of a sinner, was born into a family of officials and was rich in knowledge and talent.
Mu Si raised his head in shock and unintentionally looked directly at Pei Shu.
Caught off guard, he bumped into a heavenly and beautiful face, which made Mu Si stunned for a moment, and then the hair on his body stood up.
There is no reason to go here because the drunkard is not interested in drinking!
"Although I got married to Sanlang Huai in my early years because of the piano, he disappeared after he was convicted in the Huai family. How can I tell you about it here?" Mu Si bowed deeply and said, "Rumors are misleading, so why should I invite a girl?"
Jun Mingjian."
Pei Shu just smiled and said nothing.
Yunlu immediately understood that it was his turn to take the stage: "How reckless! How can the female monarch be the target of the attack? Do you want to be punished for covering up, or should you let the female monarch accept your love? Mr. Mu, please weigh it and give an answer."
"Hey, what are you doing so seriously? It's so scary." Pei Shu pretended to scold Yunlu, and said to Mu Si, who looked surprised: "Don't worry, I only came here with the intention of recruiting talents.
Malice.”
"You regard Saburo Waisaburo as your confidant. You should know that he has a lot of literature and ink in his heart. Are you really willing to see him spend the rest of his life in a restricted manner?"
"As the years pass by and the sun and moon fade away, time waits for no one. It is a great pity in life to have talents but no place to display them. Mr. Mu, do you think this is right?"
Mu Si couldn't help but have something strange in his eyes.
The queen's intention to attract her was already evident, so this was not something he could decide, and it was up to Kaisaburo to make his own decision.
He thought deeply before saying: "My lady, please wait a moment."
After a cup of tea.
Mu Si returned, followed by Jun Xiujun. He had a handsome appearance and a faint air of bookishness between his brows.
Pei Shu didn't wait for him to stand firm before asking: "Huai Sanlang, the husband's position in my backyard is vacant, and the curtain is waiting for you. How should you choose?"
Huaizuo's movements of brushing his clothes and saluting were paused.
She gave up her eagerness to ask polite questions, as if she wanted to catch him off guard, and Huaizuo responded with cleverness: "Young lady, when you appoint the son of a guilty minister, are you not afraid of being implicated?"
As far as he knew, this female monarch of the Pei Mansion had been away from the capital for twelve years and had only returned to the capital for three or two months. She dared to appoint the son of a guilty minister before her foundation was stable.
I don't know if she is overconfident or lacks a clear understanding of the surrounding environment.
Neither is a good thing.
Pei Shu sat at the long table and slowly ate grapes.
"Is there any kingdom in the world? Since you have been hiding safely at the foot of the imperial city for several years, it means that the kingdom has no intention of exterminating the Huai family. Then there is a lot of room for operation. It depends on whether the people who operate it are brave and capable.
Do it with courage.”
"And the old case back then was not entirely without doubt. It was just that among the powerful people involved, the Huai family was the weakest."
"You can't tell if you're a scapegoat," she said nonchalantly.
Pei Shu said it calmly, as if she was commenting on whether the grapes on the fruit plate were sour or not.
Huai Zuo was shocked and speechless by her bold words.
She also had mixed feelings in her heart. Since Huai Jia was convicted, besides Mu Si, she was the second person to complain about his injustice.
Mu Si on the side was also shocked, with utter disbelief in her eyes. She had been away from the center of power for many years, so how could she know so much about an old case from a few years ago?
Having experienced the experience of being pushed down by a wall and beaten by thousands of people when a drum was broken, Huai Zuo was lying when he said he had no intention of moving.
Under the system of this dynasty, a guilty official is not allowed to take the imperial examination. He is destined to have no way to redress his injustice and no hope of recovery.
There is a high probability that he will have to hide and eat, wait for death, and spend his life doing nothing.
And at this moment... maybe this is the only opportunity in this life that is right in front of me.
However, he had concerns. Although she was a noble queen, she was still a woman.
Since he was a child, he has witnessed the wives and concubines in his father's backyard arguing over trivial matters all day long, abandoning their personal dignity, and humbly just begging for a bit of love from men.
He felt a little uncomfortable working with women, because he didn't understand the other person and lacked trust.
It should be noted that women are more emotional and easily affected by emotions.
In other words, if you cannot control your emotions, it will be difficult to achieve great things.
Huaizuo looked at Pei Shu and didn't answer for a while.
In a patriarchal society, the world has always regarded women as men's accessories and foils. In such an environment, it is normal to have doubts. Pei Shu did not urge him to answer immediately.
"You don't have to rush to reply. I'll come back to you the next day and it won't be too late to reply by then."
After finishing speaking, she took out her brocade handkerchief and wiped her hands carefully. She suddenly raised her eyes, with a smile on her lips, looking at Mu Si with interest and said,
"In this Cainan courtyard, you can see the scenery everywhere, and the music of the piano is like a dream. It can be said that you can play a piece of music with a glass of wine, and you won't feel the darkness of the night. It has a profound charm, and it makes you happy to hear it."
"The grapes are also very sweet, worthy of lingering."
The sudden smile is like a pearl spinning, and the jade is so beautiful that it takes one's breath away.
Mu Si lost consciousness for a moment, then his eyelids twitched wildly. She was indeed a once-in-a-hundred-year-old lady. Her temperament was quite unrestrained, and she was no worse than a man when it came to lust and lust!
The atmosphere was instantly aroused.
What does the daughter of the Pei family mean? It is said that she is looking for a husband. Could it be that she has fallen in love with him?
No, don't even think about it, he won't give in!
Mu Si had a brainstorming session there.
Actually, both he and Huaizuo were deceived by Pei Shu's trick of avoiding reality.
In fact, he is also one of Pei Shu's targets.
To be precise, Mu Si is Pei Shu's primary target.
Five years ago, a horrific massacre occurred in the Yuhang River.
More than 300 members of the Meng family, the owner of Luoshuiwu, were all killed in the sea of fire overnight.
The entire clan was wiped out overnight, but Meng Bufan, the fifth son of the Meng family who went out to study, managed to escape.
That is the Mu Si in front of me.
The strange thing is that the imperial court maintained a high degree of silence about such serious and tragic crimes, and the local government only sent people to conduct a cursory investigation.
Subsequently, the Wubao faction was secretly liquidated by unknown forces.
Someone with sharp eyes and ears fled after hearing the news. After meeting Meng Bufan, his whereabouts became a mystery.
It was rumored that they escaped outside the territory, but in fact they secretly sneaked into the Imperial Capital.
After Meng Bufan arrived in Beijing, he immediately contacted Huai Weipu, the Minister of Household Affairs.
The salary theft case involving the White family and the Meng family murder case may seem to be unrelated, but they are the same case.
The six million official silver that disappeared mysteriously disappeared from the river near Yuhang.
Sometimes, once a person has bad luck, bad things will pile up. As soon as Meng Bufan met Minister Huai, something happened to the Huai family.
