446 【Dust of History】
Mr. Xi did not agree with this approach. He traveled all the way from Kyoto just because he did not want to involve Pei Yue in some turmoil that had been settled for many years.
But Silent Cloud did not hesitate, nodded in agreement, and then waved to Pei Yue behind him.
Mr. Xi frowned slightly and looked at his old friend who was in charge of Taishitai Pavilion. Silent Cloud said calmly: "He killed Ning Zhong himself."
The implication is that today's incident was caused by that kid, and these old guys were just wiping his butt. If the Tibetan Front Guards hadn't charged into the city and killed people, making the situation intensify to the point where it was almost out of control, as long as Silent Cloud held the Even the Kokang Battalion did not dare to follow Lu Min in rebellion after the clear edict came. Now that Lu Min has disarmed the Kokang Battalion, the situation is gradually stabilizing. As long as there are no more troubles, letting Pei Yue take the last step can be regarded as making up for his previous mistakes. .
Although Mr. Xi has been away from the court for more than ten years, he is no stranger to these twists and turns, so he did not stop it in the end.
Before Pei Yue took a step, he said to Ye Qi: "Mr. is there, don't worry about my safety."
Ye Qi said softly: "I understand, just go over there."
Pei Yue walked forward, but unexpectedly heard a soft hum from the other side. He didn't look back, he just felt a little strange in his heart.
Although we had a pen pal relationship back then, and this war in the Western Territory also supported her, but why are you humming when I talk to Ye Qi?
Shen Danmo saw that Pei Yue didn't pay attention at all, and a trace of embarrassment flashed deep in his eyes. Then he turned around and saw Ye Qi's cold gaze.
The two people's eyes met again, but they both recognized their general temperaments, so there was no dispute.
Pei Yue walked up to the three of them and saluted Mr. Xi first: "Good morning, sir."
Mr. Xi was very relieved and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, you are fine."
Since the death of Pei Zhen, he has been disheartened and stayed away from officialdom. He originally thought that he would die alone in his life, but he didn't expect that because of Pei Taijun's request, he had no choice but to leave the mountain regardless of his past friendship, but he watched Pei Yue grow up little by little. , to this day it is a big and strong tree in the land of Daliang.
How could he not be happy when he thought that his skills had been passed down?
Pei Yue smiled slightly, then saluted Shen Moyun and said, "I have met Mr. Shen."
Silent Cloud waved his hand and said: "No need."
He did not look at Pei Yue, but said to Lu Min: "He is here, what do you want to say?"
Lu Min stared at Pei Yue from beginning to end, watching him pretend to be a humble junior in front of him, but turned a blind eye to him. However, Lu Min did not care about this. He asked in a hoarse voice: "Tell me, Chen Xizhi How did you die?"
As if a thunder suddenly exploded in his mind, Pei Yue was stunned for the first time since he came to this world. Even though he had been trained as a man for two lifetimes, Chen Xizhi was related to his biggest secret, and he was silent at this time. Yun was right in front of him, and Lu Min asked him directly. How should he answer?
Pei Yue's mind was racing so fast that he even thought that this was a hole Lu Min deliberately dug for himself.
Both Silent Cloud and Mr. Xi remained silent. Seeing this, Lu Min sneered: "What are you afraid of? Do you think Master Shen doesn't know about the Chen family? Pei Yue, you have risen rapidly in the past few years, and many people praise you for your greatness. Xiao Naizu, it turns out it’s nothing more than this.”
Pei Yue immediately realized that he had gone astray. His life experience was the biggest secret, and he had little to do with Chen Xizhi.
He calmed down instantly and said indifferently: "Chen Xizhi is dead."
Lu Min said angrily: "What I'm asking is how she died!"
Pei Yue raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly: "That night she joined forces with Li Yang, the king of Western Wu, and was ambushed by me and the people from Taishitai Pavilion. In the end, she committed suicide in front of a City God's Temple in Xingyang City. This happened
I saw it with my own eyes."
However, Lu Min was not furious or extremely sad.
His eyes were fixed on Pei Yue, but the mysterious secret letter flashed in his mind. After the Battle of Lulong, he retreated to Guping Camp with the remaining defeated soldiers. After persuading Yin Wei to mobilize reinforcements from the north and south,
, Lu Jiang broke into the festival hall with a secret letter. It was the first time in Lu Min's life that he lost his composure in front of his son, but he couldn't help but not lose his composure.
Like the secret letters of the past years, the content on the letter paper was written in unique code. Only two people in the world knew how to decipher it. He didn't believe it at first, but when he heard Mr. Xi's words, he suddenly
I was shocked to realize that there are such weird and bizarre things in this world, and everything else is nothing compared to it.
Pei Yue carefully looked at Marquis Cheng An, who had reached the end of his road, and felt something strange in his heart, but he still couldn't figure out what went wrong.
Lu Min suddenly laughed out loud, and turned to Silent Cloud and said, "What is your Majesty going to do with me?"
Silent Cloud said calmly: "Your Majesty's decree for me is to escort you back to the capital. There is no other decree for the time being."
Lu Min actually calmed down at this time, and said with a mocking look on his face: "Seize the title and execute him, or confiscate the Yi clan's family?"
Silent Cloud replied: "To be honest, before you left Beijing, Taige did not find out your connection with the Hengduan Mountain bandits, and there is still no conclusive evidence until now. Otherwise, why would His Majesty let you serve as the commander-in-chief of the Western Army? Nan
After the news of the defeat on the front line was sent back to Kyoto, Duke Wei discussed with His Majesty all night, and finally decided to take you down, at least not to take the huge risk and wait for death."
Lu Min shook his head and said: "I didn't expect you to be so honest. So the previous remarks of your daughter, including the secret decree in Wang Jiuxuan's hand, are all false?"
Silent Cloud hesitated for a moment and then said: "Mo'er is here to investigate the intelligence in Xiwu. It is true that Wang Jiuxuan has a secret decree in his hand, but it is just a means of saving his life given by His Majesty. After you left Kyoto, Wei Guogong suspected that someone in the army was causing trouble.
, you are just one of the suspects, so His Majesty asked Wang Jiuxuan to come to the Western Region to keep an eye on you and give him a life-saving charm along the way, that's all."
Lu Min was filled with confusion when he heard this. If Silent Cloud didn't lie to him, then what's the explanation for what happened today?
Silent Cloud glanced at Pei Yue, with a mix of surprise and worry in his eyes, and said slowly: "It was only after I came here that I realized that Pei Yue never believed you from the beginning to the end, although I don't know how he discovered you.
It's a secret, but before he left Linqing and went north, he met Wang Jiuxuan and Mo'er, and maybe from that time on, he started weaving a big web against you."
Lu Min looked at Pei Yue in disbelief.
Silent Cloud said in a complicated tone: "I never allowed Mo'er to come to the battlefield. The timing of her appearance was so coincidental. I guess it was this kid's handiwork."
Pei Yue had no choice but to say: "Master Shen, please don't describe me like a monster. I am not a god descending to earth, and I don't have a third eye on my forehead. How can I be so far-term?"
Silent Cloud asked: "Then can you explain why Mo'er suddenly appeared less than fifty miles away from the Guping camp?"
Seeing the three people looking at him, Pei Yue could only say honestly: "After the great victory on the northern front, I was going to lead the Tibetan Front Guard southward through Hucheng. However, I suddenly received news of the disastrous defeat on the southern front, so I discussed it with the Marquis of Jining all night. After that, I asked him to send a letter to Miss Shen in Xingyang."
Lu Min suppressed the anger in his chest, ignored this matter, and said to Silent Cloud: "The emperor wants me to die, and I am not afraid of death. But I have been in Daliang for decades, and I don't want to let anyone kill me in Kyoto." Watching my head be chopped off! Even if you can stop me now, all he can see on the two thousand miles journey back to Beijing is my body!"
The silent cloud remained silent.
He knew the temperament of Emperor Kaiping. He had lost 50,000 troops in the Western Region for no reason, and he was afraid that he would cut Lu Min into pieces with a thousand knives.
Lu Min hooked his right foot towards the ground and already had the long sword in his hand.
In the extremely quiet square at this time, countless pairs of eyes were staring at this place.
Lu Min's actions have obvious intentions, and the only ones who can stop him at this moment are Pei Yue and Mr. Xi.
Pei Yue had no intention of taking action. The deaths of the five thousand members of the Zangfeng Guard were still vivid in his mind. He did not take action personally to help Lu Min end it, which was the result of extreme restraint.
As for Mr. Xi, this middle-aged man who, together with Silent Cloud, was the right-hand man of Pei Zhen, Duke of Dingguo, had a complex expression on his face. He quietly looked at Lu Min, who had gone crazy. There seemed to be some regret and some relief in his eyes.
Without hesitation, Lu Min stabbed the sword into his chest with his backhand, laughed ferociously before dying, and then yelled out his last words.
"Pei Yue, I'll wait for you below, soon! Soon!"
A figure rushed out of the handsome man's house and ran towards this side with all his strength, shouting crazily: "Dad! Daddy!"
