Zhuquefang is located in the center of the sixteenth square in the east city. From this detail, we can see the great importance that Emperor Gaozu had on Pei Yuan.

Hundreds of years are like white clouds and gray dogs, and the wind and rain are always blowing away the wind.

Pei Zhen was the last glory of this powerful military family. It is a pity that his achievements are being forgotten by people in Kyoto. After all, more than ten years have passed. Pei Rong, who has a lofty ambition, need not mention it. If he just wants to be a gangster, etc.

A rich and idle man who dies will not bring shame to his family.

The three young men of the fifth generation are not bad, but Pei Yue has already broken out of the house. Pei Cheng is leading troops in the western border. The only one who can protect the Duke's palace is Pei Yun, a high-ranking civil servant of the Hanlin Academy.

Therefore, when the steward of the front courtyard reported that a group of cavalry was surrounding the Duke's Mansion outside, Taijun Pei's hands trembled slightly involuntarily.

Pei Yun stared at Pei Wu's family and asked in a deep voice: "Father refuses to come forward?"

The members of the Pei Wu family looked embarrassed and lowered their heads and replied: "Go back to the second young master. My wife said that the master is not feeling well and has gone to bed a long time ago. Since the second young master is in charge of the house now, I ask you to deal with the soldiers outside."

Taijun Pei said in a trembling voice: "Brother Yun, why don't you invite your Uncle Shen?"

She naturally knew that the emperor went to Xingliang Mansion to pray for rain. The only ones who could speak in the capital now were Gu Liang, Luo Ting and Shen Moyun. In comparison, she must trust Shen Moyun more. Thinking that the emperor had just left

Someone led troops to attack the capital at night, and the old lady couldn't help feeling frightened.

Pei Yun looked very calm, shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's too late to find Uncle Shen now. Ancestors don't have to worry, my grandson will go to see the situation outside. Since they are cavalry from the garrison division, I forgive them for not trespassing.

The courage in the house.”

Pei Taijun nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, you go and see what happened now, remember not to be too arrogant, those soldiers are not elegant people."

Pei Yun agreed, then turned around and walked out of Ding'an Hall.

Outside the gate of Dingguo Mansion, more than three hundred cavalrymen looked coldly at the two housekeepers Li Rong and Qin Feng who were shivering on the steps, their horses snoring restlessly.

Pei Yongnian has become a useless person, Li Rong has been promoted to the chief housekeeper of the front yard, and Qin Feng has been promoted to the second housekeeper. However, these two people are more than a star and a half worse than Pei Yongnian. At this moment, facing the arrogant soldiers and generals who are eyeing them at the steps, they have no idea in their hearts.

I didn't have any idea at all, so I just asked the waiter to go to the back and urge me.

When Pei Yun appeared with several boys, the two men breathed a sigh of relief, quietly wiped the sweat from their faces, and stood aside with a slight bow.

Pei Yun was too lazy to pay attention to the little thoughts of these losers, and walked straight down the steps, looked at the young general, frowned and asked: "Who are you? Why do you want to lead troops to surround Dingguo Mansion?"

The military general jumped off his horse, holding the whip in his hand, and said a little frivolously: "My name is Wei Zhuang, a personal guard of His Highness King Yan. Behind me are the cavalry of the Kyoto garrison division."

Pei Yun secretly thought that this was indeed the case, his face remained calm, and he said calmly: "Since you are the personal guard of His Highness King Yan, you should know where this place is. I don't care what the purpose of your trip is, please

Lead the troops and leave immediately."

Wei Zhuang suddenly raised his head and looked behind Pei Yue, staring at

The plaque above the gate tower gave off a chilling smile.

The servants in Dingguo Mansion were so frightened that their legs trembled, but Pei Yun remained unmoved and said coldly: "Why are you laughing?"

Wei Zhuang said in an erratic tone: "That Pei Yue of yours committed regicide and kidnapped several princes. His Highness King Yan is now controlling Kyoto with the help of Marquis Chengyang. I heard that your eldest sister and Pei Yue are extremely powerful.

"Get close to me, please invite her out, His Highness King Yan has something to ask her."

A look of chilling appeared on Pei Yun's face, and he said in a cold voice: "Pei Yue has already broken out of the door and has nothing to do with Dingguo Mansion. Even if he does do such a heinous thing, Dingguo Mansion has no obligation to take the blame for him.

.In addition, my eldest sister is a female dependent of Dingguo Mansion, why do you want to take her away?"

Wei Zhuang held the riding whip in his right hand, patted it gently in the palm of his left hand, and curled his lips and said: "Second Young Master Pei, I advise you to be more knowledgeable."

Pei Yun said angrily: "Don't say that His Highness King Yan is still a prince now. Even if he is now the prince of the prison country, he still has to show some respect to the gate tower behind me. You are really a coward, leading hundreds of soldiers to

Dare to come to Dingguofu and act wild!"

Wei Zhuang suddenly took a step forward and lowered his voice: "I know this is Dingguo Mansion, and I also know what that old beast Pei Yuan has done. It's a pity that he died too early, and I couldn't kill him with my own hands."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his foot and kicked Pei Yun to the ground.

The boys in Dingguo Mansion were stunned, but the other cavalry dismounted and came towards them, but no one dared to move, not even to help Pei Yun up. Biquku

Pei Yun struggled to get up, raised his hand to brush off the dust on his chest, and said coldly: "Kill me if you want to force your way in. I want to see if His Highness King Yan dares to humiliate Dingguo Mansion like this."

Although he was thin, he stood tall and showed no fear on his face.

Of course he was not doing this for Pei Yue or to support Pei Ning, but because he knew his identity. If these wolf-like soldiers were let into the house tonight to take away Pei Ning, not only would he become a famous figure in the world from now on,

The laughingstock will bring shame to the ancestors of the Pei family.

The latter is his bottom line.

Wei Zhuang smiled evilly and said: "Why do you think His Highness sent me here? Don't worry, I won't kill you tonight, nor will I kill anyone in your Pei family. I will just take away the eldest lady. As for the account between us, go to

We’ll figure it out later.”

As soon as he raised his hand, the soldiers rushed into the Dingguo Mansion and beat the boys until they howled like ghosts.

Listening to the screams of horror and panic that kept coming from the house, Pei Yun stared at Wei Zhuang with blood filling his eyes.

He vaguely guessed the man's true identity.

After a long time, soldiers came outside the mansion one after another and brought very bad news to Wei Zhuang.

They searched all over the house, even including Pei Taijun's Ding'an Hall, but they could not find the woman named Pei Ning at all. As for the many bad behaviors during this search, they were naturally brushed aside.

Pei Yun said word by word: "I tell His Highness King Yan that today's humiliation will never be forgotten by the Dingguo Mansion."

Wei Zhuang stepped forward and grabbed Pei Yun's neck, and said with a ferocious expression: "Tell me, where is Pei Ning!"

He exerted little force and looked at

Pei Yun's face turned red and he looked like he was struggling constantly, with a look of pleasure in his eyes.

At this moment, a cold light pierced the night sky.

Wei Zhuang forced himself to avoid it, and then he saw a soldier next to him with an arrow stuck in his throat.

At the other end of Fuqian Street, hundreds of fierce men wearing mysterious clothes and holding special iron rods appeared. The leader was a middle-aged man with a pale face.

Wei Zhuang felt a sense of fear in his heart, threw Pei Yun to the ground, turned around and shouted: "Let's go!"

More than three hundred cavalrymen flew on their horses and left in the opposite direction under the leadership of Wei Zhuang.

The middle-aged man came closer, stretched out his hand to help Pei Yun up, and asked, "Have you been injured?"

Pei Yun shook his head, bowed and said, "Thank you, Uncle Shen."

Silent Cloud glanced at the plaque on the door of Dingguo Mansion, and sighed softly: "The capital city is in chaos, and I came a step too late after all. These people stayed to protect the manor, don't do anything else, and stay in the manor with peace of mind. Madam, take good care of her, remember?"

Pei Yun's heart trembled, and he realized that the middle-aged man in front of him might have known about the connection between the fourth prince and Li Bingzhong, and he also saw through his idea of ​​​​taking advantage of the fire. Although he was unwilling to agree, he had just met a person like Wei Zhuang. After being so domineering, it became clear that Kyoto was now under the control of the fourth prince.

Because he holds the Kyoto garrison in his hand.

After a while, Pei Yun said reluctantly but helplessly: "Yes, this junior has remembered it."

Silent Cloud said no more, turned around and disappeared into the night.

…

Yongrenfang, Shen Mansion, Houzhai.

Pei Ning looked at Shen Danmo who was pacing back and forth in front of him and asked worriedly: "Mo'er, is it true that third brother will be okay?"

Shen Danmo stopped and said with emotion: "Sister Ning, you have asked me more than ten times."

Peining smiled awkwardly and said softly: "You don't want to sit still. You keep spinning in circles like this. I can't calm down."

Shen Danmo walked to her and sat down, holding her wrist and said: "Sister Ning, Pei Yue is so kind to you. This time he even hid it from the Zhongshan Marquis Mansion, but risked his plan to be exposed. You send it to me in advance. “

"Plan? What plan?" Peining asked in confusion.

Shen Danmo raised his eyebrows and said with a bit of helplessness and resentment: "Of course it's an old trick of inviting you to the urn, but no matter how I asked, he refused to say more than a word. It really pissed me off."

Pei Ning thought for a while, then asked in shock: "Are you saying that the chaos in the capital tonight is actually the plan of the third brother?"

Shen Danmo stretched out, shook his head and said: "That's not entirely true, His Majesty must have been involved. As for whether my father and Marquis Guangping were involved, I don't know. Maybe the ruling lord who was sick and recuperating at home was also among them. No matter what, he will definitely be able to soar into the sky this time, and in the future, in front of His Majesty, I am afraid that even my father will not be able to compare with him!"

She blinked her eyes, showing a rare coquettish look.

Seeing that Pei Ning was still a little nervous, Shen Danmo chuckled and said: "Sister Ning, don't worry, you can see Pei Yue in the afternoon tomorrow at the latest. I guarantee that he will still look like he is so angry that he will not pay for his life."

"Okay, I believe you." Peining responded gently.
