March 20th, the wind was sunny and the weather was rare during the continuous spring rain.

At the first quarter of Yinshi (3:15 in the morning), the servants of the Duke's Mansion began to get busy. The maids and servants responsible for cleaning carried tools and carefully cleaned the inside and outside, even if these places had been cleaned yesterday.

.

The front yard and the back house are divided into two places. The front yard is for entertaining male guests, and the back house is for entertaining the wives who have been ordered to live.

For a government palace, etiquette and rules are extremely important. There are clear regulations on where guests can drink tea, where they can take a break, and where they can hold banquets. There is no room for carelessness, not to mention that today is Taijun Pei’s sixth birthday.

On the tenth birthday, if something goes wrong, the Pei family will be laughed at, and the servants will definitely be beaten to death.

When the sky was dark, Taohua opened her eyes with difficulty, got up in confusion and called softly: "Master, get up."

The two slept in the same room, in separate beds of course. Pei Yue slept on the slightly larger bed inside, while Taohua slept on a relatively simple bed outside.

Pei Yue was actually awake.

Today, he and Pei Yun of Peicheng City will greet the guests in front of the gate of Duke Dingguo's Mansion. Although he is not excited or nervous, this is an excellent opportunity for him to observe the world. Pei Rong also mentioned before that he would come to Prince Pei.

The birthday congratulators are all the martial arts giants in Kyoto. These people are undoubtedly the top dignitaries in Daliang after the Tian family, because in today's world of great strife, in addition to Daliang, the Wu Kingdom in the west and the South

The Great Zhou Dynasty also had a strong national power and prosperous military equipment. It was far from the time when horses were released from Nanshan and weapons were stored in the treasury, so the status of the military was not weaker than that of the civilian officials.

Pei Rong did not achieve military merit and was still named Dingyuan Bo. Of course, it was not to value him as a person, but to continue to maintain the banner status of Dingguo Duke in the Daliang Army. As long as the first generation of Dingguo Duke Pei Yuan was mentioned, he would

The arrogant military leader must also maintain outward respect.

But anyone with a discerning eye can also see that if they rely on Pei Rong and his eldest son Pei Cheng, who is destined to attack the prince, the father and son have nothing like Pei Yuan's style in the past. It is impossible to say that more than ten years later, the most powerful family in the Liang Army will be

Changed ownership.

Of course, Pei Yue never thought about these things. He just wanted to see what the so-called upper class in this world is like.

"You can sleep a little longer, I can go there by myself." After getting up and lighting the oil lamp, Pei Yue couldn't help but smile when looking at the sleepy look of the yellow-haired girl.

Taohua is obviously one year older than him, and girls develop earlier, but she looks thinner than him, which is obviously caused by long-term malnutrition.

Of course, he himself wasn't much better.

Li, that damn stinky bitch, will have to ask her for an account in the future, so that all grudges can be settled.

For Pei Ning's sake, just let her live.

Taohua put on her coat rustlingly and walked out as usual, muttering: "I'm going to cook for the young master. The luncheon will take a long time. You have to stand on the wind vent outside the door for a long time. What's wrong with not eating?"

Okay."

Pei Yue was amused in his heart, but also a little touched. He stretched out his hand to grab her, took her back to the bed, and said seriously: "I can make food myself. You have to sleep well. If you don't get enough sleep at such a young age, you will not be able to grow up easily."

big."

Taohua rubbed her eyes, looking confused.

I can understand every word the young master said, but why can’t I understand them all together?

Pei Yue took a look at the gradually whitening sky outside the window, and did not continue to ask common sense questions. He only said in an unquestionable tone: "You can sleep for another hour, and then get up and get something to eat. There are many people in the house today."

, don’t run around, wait at home for me to come back.”

"Oh." Taohua nodded obediently like a kitten, her little face turned a little red.

Pei Yue was a little confused. What's so embarrassing about this?

Shaking his head, he walked straight out.

Taohua lay on the bed, hugging the thin quilt, and the word Pei Yue said over and over again in her mind.

Home?

The young master said this is home, our home. In fact, the young master likes me, right?

So, should you agree to him?

The smile on the yellow-haired girl's face became brighter and brighter, and she gradually became a little crazy.

…

After Pei Yue left the small courtyard, he walked slowly to the small kitchen not far away. In fact, the food provided here was for the servants, including the small courtyard where he lived. It was actually near the courtyard of the household servants. It can be seen that the Li family

He was humiliated in all aspects, and no opportunity was missed.

After arriving in the kitchen, Pei Yue found the woman in charge of the kitchen named Li Rongjia, and asked for a meal calmly.

The Li Rong family is a woman in her thirties who is a bit snobbish. Perhaps she heard about what happened in Mingyue Pavilion the day before yesterday and knew that the third young master in a miserable situation was valued by the old lady, so she was not as indifferent as usual.

Instead, he said with some enthusiasm: "Oh, Third Young Master, you are going to make a big appearance today, and we slaves are also happy for you. You sit down, and I will go get it now."

"Thank you." Pei Yue said with a normal expression.

He doesn't want to get involved with these brats unless necessary, but he won't respond to them enthusiastically. He just treats them as eating out by himself.

The only difference is that you don't have to pay.

The Li Rong family was still preparing to say something to please them, but when they saw Pei Yue's calm expression and the brand new moon-white robe he was wearing, they felt increasingly uneasy. They couldn't say those wisecracks and left in a sullen manner.

Even though it was a servant's meal, the taste and appearance were quite good. A plate of steamed buns stuffed with vegetables and meat, a bowl of thick japonica rice porridge, and two exquisite and delicious side dishes were placed in Pei Yue's table in a short time.

before.

After filling his stomach, Pei Yue thanked Li Rong's family again and left the small kitchen without looking at anyone else.

After he left, several women gathered around Li Rong's house and started talking quietly.

"I heard that this third young master is amazing!"

"Yes, who is Mother Liu? The old Chen from the madam's gang! Just because the third young master complained in front of the old lady, he was beaten to death."

"If you ask me, Aunt Liu deserves it. How old is the third young master? She bullies Tian'er to death when she sees her. She either beats or scolds her. One time I passed by the small courtyard and saw her holding a stick as thick as this.

I hit the third young master seven or eight times with the stick."

"Isn't that right? Sister-in-law of the Li family, you have always given this guy a blank look before. Be careful that he goes to the old lady and files a complaint against you."

"What a shame, mother, when did I ever give Third Young Master a roll of my eyes?"

"Hey, stop arguing. Why am I looking at you? This person looks a little different now?"

"That look in his eyes is nothing like before. The look he gave me just now was as powerful as the master. I don't know what to do with it."

"Could it be that we bumped into someone else?"

"Stop farting, do you want to get a stick too?"

"Okay, okay, just stop talking and get to work."

As the Li Rong family dispersed everyone, they had some thoughts in mind. Should they make up for their previous actions?

That's all, just pay more attention to the meals delivered to that small courtyard in the future.

Of course, Pei Yue could not have imagined that his helpless actions would trigger these chain reactions. Following the procedures he heard from several housekeepers yesterday, he came out of the small kitchen and went to the concierge behind the gate.

According to the agreement, he and Pei Cheng and Pei Yun gathered here, and then stood outside the gate to greet guests after sunrise.

In order not to follow the truth and not want to give some people a chance, he came very early, half an hour earlier than the agreed time.

Logically speaking, the concierge should only have servants at this time.

However, when Pei Yue walked in, he saw someone earlier than him.
