Guangping Houfu is located in the southeast of Dongcheng, and Taikangfang is in the northwest of Xicheng. Pei Yue had to pass through most of Kyoto.

After entering the Xicheng area, the soldiers who had stayed in the Zhongshan Marquis Mansion also followed. More than a hundred horses rode through with an astonishing momentum. Although Pei Yue deliberately chose a relatively remote street, the one hundred soldiers beside him were

The old soldiers who were withdrawn from the battlefield in the Western Territory, even if they were not charging at high speed, still exuded a frightening and murderous aura.

When passing through a long street, Pei Yue suddenly reined in the reins. The soldiers behind him did not panic at all, and stopped in an orderly manner. Such superb horse control skills and a military appearance with orders and prohibitions would probably make those who are interested in it extremely wary.

"Master Hou, is there anything wrong?" Geng Yi asked respectfully.

Pei Yue remained silent, looking back at a satin shop at the end of the long street in the distance.

When he passed there just now, he caught a glimpse of a slightly familiar figure on the street. Logically speaking, the figure should never appear in Kyoto. But when he looked over there, there was no trace of the figure. Could it be that he had seen it wrong?

There are so many things in this world, not to mention the similarity in body shape, even the similarity in appearance is normal. The most important thing is that he must rush to Taikangfang as soon as possible. If Gu Fan gets angry and fights with others, it will be very troublesome after all.

"It's okay, let's go."

About a stick of incense later, Taikangfang was already in sight.

This is a relatively quiet and elegant place in the West City. Many dignitaries have purchased houses here. It is roughly equivalent to the rich manor of Pei Yue's previous life. Since the people living in the square are either rich or noble, then corresponding guards must be provided.

The strength is also sufficient, and the Kyoto garrison division even built a small military camp here with 500 permanent soldiers.

When more than a hundred cavalry appeared, the guerrilla garrison division responsible for commanding 500 soldiers was immediately notified. However, after finding out the origins of these people, the guerrilla officer returned to his small courtyard and ordered his subordinates not to interfere.

Just keep an eye on it.

This young man is now a popular figure around His Majesty. As long as he doesn't cause any big trouble, why do he need to get into trouble with him?

So Pei Yue led his soldiers all the way to a house without any hindrance. This was the address Gu Liu told him.

Pei Yue frowned as he looked at the palace guards surrounding the house.

The other party was also observing the sudden appearance of this elite cavalry. The leader of the guards stepped forward to block the way, looked coldly at Pei Yue on the horse, and shouted loudly: "Someone dismount!"

Pei Yue reined in the reins, looked at the other person with an indifferent expression, and asked, "Who are you?"

The leader naturally knew Pei Yue and knew that this young man's powerful position was extraordinary, but he still had a rigid expression on his face and said in a cold voice: "The Imperial Guards General Xu Yongguan in the palace is responsible for protecting His Highness the Second Prince."

Pei Yue glanced at the gate of the house next to him and said in a deep voice: "This is the private residence of the Hougu family in Guangping. Who gave you the power to surround this place?"

Xu Yongguan said with cold eyes: "His Royal Highness is inside."

The implication is that when the noble prince enters this house, they, as guards, must of course surround the house. Otherwise, what if someone with evil intentions enters and murders the prince?

If it were anyone else, or if the house's surname was not Gu, Pei Yue would not have a conflict with the palace guards, because he still has a lot of things to do. Where would he have the leisure and elegance to fight with a prince?

Pei Yue looked at Xu Yongguan's cold face and said calmly: "Go and inform the second prince that Pei Yue, the Marquis of Zhongshan, wants to see you."

Xu Yongguan was slightly startled. He didn't expect that the other party would be so easy-going.

He has heard too many stories about Pei Yue in the past few months, and they are also widely circulated among the imperial guards. Especially the image of Pei Yue's decisive killing on the battlefield in the Western Territory has penetrated into everyone's hearts day after day. Xu Yongguan also knows

One thing is that there are many young people in the imperial guards and even the imperial army who admire Pei Yue and hope that they can dominate the battlefield like him.

Now that Pei Yue has given him the chance, Xu Yongguan will certainly not continue to support him. If something like this really breaks out, the second prince will definitely not be able to keep himself as a general of the Imperial Guard with an ordinary background.

After a while, the door of this quiet and elegant house opened, and Pei Yue walked in calmly alone, while the soldiers stayed outside.

Even if Xu Yongguan is not one of the people who admire Pei Yue, he can't help but admire his courage at this moment, which is worthy of being tempered on the battlefield.

There were three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry in the house, all of them were burly palace guards with murderous faces. Pei Yue was using his bare hands and a calm expression, ignoring these masters who deliberately wanted to suppress his momentum.

When he came outside the main hall, Pei Yue took one look and made a judgment on the situation in his mind.

The two sides are confronting each other for some unknown reason, but it has not intensified to the point of fighting each other.

Gu Fan was sitting alone on the right side. The young man on the left was the second prince, Prince Liu Yun of Qi, the eldest son of Empress Chen and the candidate identified by some courtiers as the crown prince.

Liu Yun wore a black gauze winged crown, a red round-necked uniform with four dragons, a unicorn jade pendant tied on a leather belt around his waist, and soap leather boots on his feet. Unlike Gu Fan, who was alone, there were five people standing behind him.

, except for a middle-aged man who resembles a butler, the other four people are all martial arts masters in their thirties with sharp eyes and a clear mind.

The reputation of His Highness the Second Prince is not very good, probably because he is timid and petty in front of the emperor, and at other times he is domineering and unwilling to show consideration for his subordinates.

Pei Yue stepped in calmly, and first glanced at Gu Fan, seeing that he didn't look strange except for the anger in his eyes, and he immediately felt relieved.

Liu Yun looked sideways at Pei Yue and asked in a condescending tone: "Are you Pei Yue?"

Pei Yue was unhurried and said with a simple salute: "Pei Yue is here to see His Highness the Second Highness."

Liu Yun's face looked a little ugly.

Not to mention that this boy's salute is too casual, just the word "I" makes people uncomfortable. Do you want to remind me that Liu Xian is the eldest son of his father?

Thinking about Pei Yue now being a concubine, he was now above the Dingguo Pei Mansion. Liu Yun became more and more displeased with this person. However, as a prince who was used to intrigues, he would not be easily angered by others. Although the city government was

Not much, but not too superficial either.

Liu Yun's silence doesn't mean that no one bothers Pei Yue. Maybe it's because everyone he sees usually has a humble look on his face. The palace steward standing behind him said angrily: "You can't kneel down and bow down when you see His Highness, you little slave."

Do you still have the king's law in your eyes? Kneel down quickly, otherwise the prince will not be able to spare you!"

Gu Fan suddenly stood up and clenched his hands into fists.

"Brother, please be patient."
