"Are you Pei Ning?"

Princess Pingyang looked coldly at the young woman standing in the distance, looking at her appearance and figure wantonly.

Pei Ning didn't seem to feel her clearly contemptuous gaze. He smiled slightly and said politely: "Pei Ning of Dingguo Mansion, please see Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Princess Pingyang snorted coldly and stepped into the small courtyard. A large group of people filed in behind her.

Pei Ning walked forward with good words and peach blossoms, and Deng Zai quickly followed, while giving a look to a companion beside him.

He understood the situation and immediately left the small courtyard while those people were not paying attention.

In the main hall, Princess Pingyang was sitting on the main seat, looking up at Pei Ning who walked in with a calm face, and asked: "Do you know why I came to see you today?"

Pei Ning responded calmly: "I don't know."

"What an unknown person."

Princess Pingyang sneered several times and suddenly raised her tone: "I heard my mother and concubine say before that the Pei family is trying their best to send you to Prince Lu's Mansion. Is this the case?"

Pei Ning's heart moved, and he immediately understood the whole story, and replied calmly: "Your Highness, this matter must have happened."

Princess Pingyang sneered: "You, the Pei family, dare to go against the Tian family. You really don't know how to live or die. Your father and mother concubine want to see the Pei family's ancestors serve the country and not care about you, but I will not tolerate this kind of behavior. Pei

Ning, do you think that you are so pretty that even the royal brother of this palace doesn't care about you? Do you know what the majesty of the heavenly family is and what the difference between superiority and inferiority is? I have long heard that the Pei family raises

You're a bunch of trash, I didn't expect you to be such bold trash!"

"Your Highness, why should you go so far as to deceive others?"

Deng Zai, who had remained calm despite being punched and kicked before, took a step forward and said with a livid face.

He was very clear about Pei Yue's attitude towards Pei Ning. It was said that the master humiliated his ministers to death. Faced with Princess Pingyang's repeated humiliation, he could no longer deal with it silently.

"Deng Zai, step back."

Pei Ning said calmly, then looked at Princess Pingyang and said slowly: "Your Highness, I have no engagement with His Highness King Lu, so why would I go back on my word? It's okay for Your Highness to humiliate me, but have you ever thought about humiliating the Pei family like this?

How would His Majesty view it? How would the Manchu ministers view it?"

"So what if you humiliate the Pei family? Today I am here to give you a good lesson, you bitch. Kneel down before me!"

Princess Pingyang patted the handrail with a fierce voice.

Deng Zai suddenly drew his sword, and then the other five men drew their swords together. Although they did not point the tip of the sword at Princess Pingyang, they stood firmly in front of Pei Ning.

Liangyan and Taohua showed fear on their faces, but they did not back down at this moment. They protected Peining like a mother animal protecting her cub.

Seeing this scene, Princess Pingyang smiled instead of being angry, and said to the eunuch beside her: "Did you see? There will be a day when someone points a knife at me."

Deng Zai said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, it's not that we don't understand the importance of dignity, it's just that Your Highness treats the eldest sister of the Marquis like this. Even if we risk our lives, we will not take a step back."

Princess Pingyang looked at the gentle Pei Ning, and suddenly felt a trace of jealousy in her heart. She raised her hand and said, "What are you waiting for? These people rushed to the palace to rebel. Kill them all! Including that woman!"

At this moment, a nervous voice suddenly came from outside: "Pingyang, stop!"

Two men strode into the small courtyard, still smelling of alcohol, followed by a group of followers.

The one on the left, wearing a robe with wide sleeves and a jade crown, is the owner of Xianyun Manor, the fourth prince Yan Wang Liu Zan. He is relatively close to Princess Heping Yang, although not as good as the eldest prince, but because there is no competition for the position of prince

There was a conflict, so Princess Pingyang would come here from time to time to relax. Fortunately, he had someone secretly follow this arrogant imperial sister. If his subordinates had not notified him in time, he and Pei Yue would not have known about the situation here. If Deng Zai had arranged for someone to report the news, Pei Yue would have

I'm afraid something big will happen the more I come here.

King Yan walked quickly and saw that although there were clear distinctions in the main hall, no one took action. He breathed a sigh of relief and then looked worriedly at the young dignitaries beside him.

At this glance, he knew something was going to be bad.

For a martial arts nobleman, whether he has killed anyone is completely different, and how many people he has killed is even more important.

After returning to Kyoto, Pei Yue put away his irritable side and tried his best to play the role of a well-behaved and loyal minister. Even in the face of criticism from important officials in the court and the conspiracy of Nan Zhou, he could deal with it calmly and calmly.

Only that time in Dingguo Mansion, he took action in a rage and beat Pei Yongnian into a cripple with one punch.

He didn't expect that when he took his eldest sister out to relax, he would encounter such a thing. No matter what the other party's purpose was, what would Pei Ning think? Wouldn't it be true for her previous thoughts that as long as she went out, she would be provoked by Pei Yue?

Trouble, sitting in Qingfeng Garden from now on?

Thinking of this, Pei Yue's face turned cold.

Peining turned around and looked at him, feeling dazed for a moment.

She seemed to see the boy who was kneeling on the snow and being punished in her memory, walking towards her step by step after years of hardships and twists and turns, his stature from short to tall, his back from rickety to straight, and finally he met the handsome man with a frosty face in front of her.

Two into one.

"Sister, I'm sorry." Pei Yue walked to her and said guiltily.

Pei Ning raised her hand to smooth the depression between his eyebrows, shook her head and said, "Third brother, I'm fine. Although Her Royal Highness is a little angry, she didn't do anything to me."

Pei Yue responded: "I know why she is angry."

On the way here, King Yan gave a few brief hints, and Pei Yue quickly figured out why Princess Pingyang was causing trouble for Pei Ning.

Pei Ning knew him so well that she couldn't help but hold his wrist worriedly, shook her head and said, "Third brother, forget it."

Pei Yue reached out and removed her soft palm, turned his eyes to Deng Zai and others next to him, looked at the scars on their faces and the marks on their clothes, and stepped forward.

Those guards felt like they were facing a powerful enemy.

Princess Pingyang looked at Pei Yue who was walking this way and sneered: "The Marquis of Zhongshan is so majestic."

Pei Yue ignored her at all, walked to the palace guards, glanced at her one by one, and asked slowly: "Who made the move first?"

Everyone was silent.

Pei Yue sneered and said: "His Royal Highness's bodyguards are actually a group of cowards. I'm afraid they can't protect His Highness's safety."

Before Princess Pingyang could speak, someone stood up and said, "Marquis Pei, it was your soldiers who blocked His Highness's way. We can't blame us for this."

Pei Yue nodded, walked to him calmly, and asked gently: "What do you call him?"

"The last general——"

As soon as the words came out, Pei Yue reached out his right hand, pulled out his saber from his waist, and slashed his neck with his backhand.

Killed instantly.

The whole hall was dead silent.

King Yan did not expect Pei Yue to be so violent. He was stunned on the spot and asked in disbelief: "Pei Yue, what are you doing?"

Pei Yue turned to look at him, the coldness and murderous intent in his eyes frightened the nobleman of the Tian family.
