720 [lifting weights lightly]
On the bank of Qishui, a summer resort.
Pei Yue came to the outer hall and saw Jing Chu, the head of the Kun Department of Taishitai Pavilion, pacing back and forth anxiously.
"I have met Marquis Pei."
"Master Jing, I wonder what happened to everyone?"
Although Pei Yue asked this question, his face was very calm, because his current news channels were not bad at all. If a huge change really happened in Kyoto, it was impossible for him not to receive the least bit of news.
Jing Chu smiled bitterly and said: "Pei Hou, in fact, it's not a big deal. It's just that a few attachés from the Southern Zhou Dynasty mission had a conflict with a group of young men from Daliang, and many people saw blood."
Pei Yue asked curiously: "Isn't the Southern Zhou envoy attending the banquet in the palace?"
Jing Chu said: "The identity of that person is somewhat special. She is the niece of Mr. Xu, the envoy of the Southern Zhou Dynasty. She has never revealed her identity in public before. Today, when the envoy entered the palace for a banquet, this woman wandered around the capital with a few guards.
, and finally went to Qinyuan of Marquis Pei, where for some reason he had a conflict with a group of noble disciples, and then started a fight."
Pei Yue only felt a toothache. He finally found an opportunity to go on vacation with his family. In the last two days, he encountered this kind of bad thing again. The key is that it happened on his own territory.
He said with a hint of helplessness: "Master Jing, although this kind of matter is difficult to handle, the right person should step in. If it is not convenient for Taishitai Pavilion to intervene, we still have the Ministry of Punishment, the Fifth Army Governor's Office, Dali Temple, and Kyoto
Mansion, why are you taking all the trouble to come here? Although the incident happened in Qinyuan, I can guarantee that it has nothing to do with the people in Qinyuan."
Jing Chu laughed and said, "That's true. However, it's not that I want to bother Marquis Pei. Your Majesty has already given an oral instruction to let Marquis Pei handle this matter, so I have no choice but to come to the door shamelessly."
Pei Yue sighed softly, and probably guessed the emperor's thoughts, so he did not refuse anymore and said calmly: "Just wait a moment, I will go inside to explain a few things, and then I will return to the capital with you."
"Please, Marquis Pei." Jing Chu said respectfully.
…
Qinyuan.
After Pei Yue's soldiers took control of the situation, Qi Min separated the two groups, arranged Xu Churong and her guards in a small courtyard, and then placed a large number of people around them, in the name of protection but in reality guarding. Those injured Xun
The noble son stayed directly in the lobby. On the one hand, he sent someone to call the doctor, and on the other hand, he immediately ordered people to go to the palace and outside the city to report the news.
After waiting for less than half an hour, the palace eunuch came to announce the decree, and the two groups who had the conflict were all detained in Qinyuan, waiting for Pei Yue, the Marquis of Zhongshan, to come and deal with it.
Qi Min was puzzled, but he could only accept the order respectfully.
However, before Pei Yue came back, a large group of military nobles rushed into Qinyuan.
"What a thief, how dare you take action in Kyoto!"
"Where are those Nanzhou craftsmen? I have to skin them today!"
"Damn it, I haven't seen many men from the south on the battlefield, but now they dare to come here and act wild."
"I specifically picked Pei Hou's place to do it. In my opinion, it must be related to the gang's meticulous work last time."
"Stop talking so much, where is the person? Just tie him up and throw him into Qishui!"
In the Shui Jing Hall, on one side were the miserable and powerful children waiting for treatment by the doctor, and on the other side were their fathers with their hair and beards sprouting and angry. Qi Min stood between the two groups of people, cleared his throat and said loudly: "Everyone, what's going on in the palace just now?"
The prison officer has brought His Majesty's oral instructions, and my Lord Marquis will handle this matter. Please be patient and calm."
He has been inquiring about the news in the capital in the past few years and has a good understanding of all the houses, so he can successfully handle the reception of Qinyuan. At this moment, he glanced over and determined the identities of these furious middle-aged people. Although everyone
They all have genuine titles, but most of them are earl and below.
In other words, these people in front of them basically have no real military positions.
Sure enough, when they heard that Pei Yue had taken over the matter, the voices of the warriors became quieter, but some people still said angrily: "Master Qi, where are those Southern Zhou people now?"
Qi Min frowned slightly and said, "Uncle Li, what do you want to do?"
The middle-aged man suffocated slightly, but fortunately he reacted quickly enough and raised his head and said: "His Majesty asked Pei Hou to handle it. Of course we have no objection. It's just that those Southern Barbarians are so heavy-handed. Can't we go and scold him?"
"Yes! If you can't do anything, why can't you curse me?"
"Please tell me, Master Qi, where those Nanman are hiding!"
Qi Min was amused in his heart, but still had a solemn expression on his face. He raised his arms and lowered his arms slightly, saying loudly: "They are in a small courtyard to the north. However, gentlemen, please don't be impulsive. The other party is Nanzhou after all.
The attachés of the mission must not have any surprises before my Marquis arrives."
After saying that, he gave Yang Hu a look, and the latter led the group of aggressive nobles to the small courtyard. Anyway, it was guarded by Pei Yue's soldiers, and even if they had a hundred courages, they would not dare to rush in.
Take action.
It's just that Qi Min obviously underestimated the extent of the evil deeds of these nobles.
These people gathered around the courtyard and insulted them to their heart's content. The curse words in their mouths were so bad that even the shrews in the streets would be ashamed. After all, most of these people had not read a few books about saints and sages, and they all had the experience of serving in the army. Swearing is a common occurrence.
Verbal humiliation is even more handy.
In the small courtyard, several masters looked a little embarrassed. Fortunately, they were only superficial injuries. The drunken and powerful disciples did not have much strength in their hands and could not hurt their bones. However, although they were good on the inside, they looked very good on the outside.
It's embarrassing, just because those bastards used food and wine as hidden weapons, these masters were all in a mess.
Xu Churong was not much better. Although she had these loyal guards to protect her, she still suffered a lot of damage. The scene was too chaotic at that time. I don't know who left the footprints on her shoulders. In addition, there were many stains on her clothes.
"My guard is in trouble, please forgive me, Miss!" The guard who first suggested coming to Qinyuan looked ashamed. If he hadn't said more, how could such a thing have happened?
Xu Churong shook her head slightly and did not blame this person. She listened to the shouts and curses outside, and there was a hint of anger in her eyebrows.
The words of those Liang people were too unpleasant. Although they did not mention them by name, to Xu Churong's ears, it was undoubtedly that they were insulting his parents.
After all, she is just a girl under the age of sixteen, and she can usually remain calm. Today, she encountered this unreasonable disaster and was scolded outside for a long time. How could she hold it back? She immediately took a big step and pushed violently.
Open the courtyard door.
The guards couldn't help but change their expressions and hurriedly followed, only to find that after the young lady opened the door, the group of Liang Guoxun nobles standing outside suddenly closed their mouths.
This made them puzzled. Could it be that the young lady was actually a hidden master who could suppress these Liang people with just her momentum?
Xu Churong naturally did not have such confusion, because she saw a young and upright figure walking from a distance. After this person appeared, the Liang people obediently shut their mouths.
As soon as the young dignitary approached, the Liang people immediately moved out of the way.
He walked up to a middle-aged man and asked expressionlessly: "Master He, whose mother do you want to fuck?"
Lord He, who had scolded the most fiercely just now, lowered his head and said with a flattering smile: "Marquis Pei, of course it's those in the south——"
The young dignitary frowned and said, "Please think carefully about who your Majesty is entertaining in the palace today."
Sir He was so angry that he didn't dare to express his anger.
The young dignitary continued to walk forward, asking questions to the Liang people as he walked. Although he did not deliberately speak harshly, the dignitaries he asked were all silent.
"Whose family are you going to kill?"
"Who do you want to rape first and then kill?"
"Who are you going to cramp and skin?"
By the time he walked in front of Xu Churong, there was already silence outside the door of the small courtyard that had been so noisy just now.
It has to be said that Xu Churong was very afraid of young dignitaries like Pei Yue, because such people were too dangerous for Da Zhou. But at the moment, watching him casually persuade those Liang people who had no moral integrity at all, she couldn't help but feel something in her heart.
A burst of pleasure.
Pei Yue gave her a meaningful look, turned to look at the quail-like nobles, and said coldly: "Now that Liang and Zhou have become friendly neighbors, how much does your majesty take this matter seriously?
, not only do you not want to share your Majesty’s worries, but you come here to scold the street, is your brain filled with water?”
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Xu Churong's mouth.
I saw those Liang people hanging their heads and apologizing one after another. Although they bowed their heads to Pei Yue, Xu Churong, who was standing behind Pei Yue, also felt very comfortable.
Pei Yue seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He didn't need to look back to know what Xu Churong was thinking. He looked at the dejected nobles and sneered: "You don't accept it?"
Everyone responded: "I don't dare."
Pei Yue said in a deep voice: "I know you are dissatisfied. After all, we have been fighting with the south for decades. Maybe some of you have relatives who spilled blood in the south. It is inevitable that you will be blamed for this kind of thing. But the reason why I am angry is because
It's not because of your attitude towards Zhou people, but the way you act. A group of men in their decades only dare to stand outside the courtyard and curse like shrews. Is it possible that all the blood in your body has been fed to the ladies in the brothel?
You don’t even dare to rush in and kill people?”
"In comparison, your children and grandchildren who were beaten until they screamed are much stronger!"
The smile on Xu Churong's lips suddenly froze.
