Chapter 920 919 [I don’t know whether to live or die]

As the wedding day approaches, there are more and more visitors to the Zhongshan Marquis Mansion.

Emperor Kaiping's suppression came to nothing, and the theory of the marriage seemed to be just a rumor among the people. Especially after the first month of the new year, Pei Yue suddenly became a supporter of the eldest prince, cheering for him and playing the sheng. Of course, this matter was Pei Yue's.

The more proactive you are to send people to selectively publicize to the outside world.

In any case, the dignitaries in the capital finally confirmed the fact that Pei Yue was still firmly serving as a first-class prince, and taking advantage of the situation to consolidate the power of the Beijing Army's North Camp did not arouse the resentment of His Majesty the Emperor.

Most people do not understand the struggle and checks and balances between the monarch and his ministers. They only know that after the Battle of the Southern Territory, Pei Yue became more and more powerful, and his prestige in the army was comparable to that of Wang Pingzhang, Gu Liang and others.

It is difficult to provide help in times of need, but it is easy to add icing on the cake. For these noble people in Duzhong, face has always been a strange thing. Sometimes dignity trumps everything else, and sometimes they can be extremely flattering and humble, only looking at the identity and status of the person.

There is no doubt that Pei Yue now has the qualifications to make them bow their heads and laugh in apology.

During this time, the stewards in the mansion were extremely busy. Most of the guests needed to be received by the two chief stewards, Deng Shi and Wang Mo. Only a small number of people were qualified to enter the side hall where Pei Yue entertained guests.

In this happy and busy situation, the arrival of an unexpected guest made Pei Yue frown slightly.

"Prince of Weinan County?" he asked in a deep voice.

The chief steward, Deng Shi, bowed his head and responded: "The prince of Weinan County came to visit alone, and he didn't give any notice in advance. He came quite suddenly, and he also brought a whole cart full of gifts."

Pei Yue snorted softly and said: "Ask him to go to the side hall and don't put the gifts in the warehouse for the time being."

Deng Shi accepted the order and said: "Yes, Lord Marquis."

Pei Yue knew the clan members well, and this was considered a required course taught to him by Mr. Xi. However, except for the princes of Emperor Kaiping, the others were really lackluster. The reason was that after the death of Emperor Zhongzong, the brothers of Emperor Kaiping

They passed away one after another, and the descendants of these princes had basically no influence on the court.

The father of Weinan County Prince Liu Fei was the fifth brother of Emperor Kaiping, so he had to call Emperor Kaiping his uncle.

However, he was not qualified to meet the Holy Spirit all the time. On weekdays, he mainly followed the second prince, King Qi, and took care of the Bamboo Tower and other properties in the capital for him.

Of course, Pei Yue would not forget that before he returned to the capital, this person, on behalf of King Qi, persuaded those Wu Xun nobles to buy the shares of Qinyuan in their hands. To be fair, he was a little confused about what King Qi was thinking. Could it be that this queen

The eldest son thinks that he is a slave who can come and go at a moment's notice. As long as he lets out the slightest hint, he will come and join him?

I heard that Queen Chen was virtuous, virtuous, smart and smart, so she would not have taught such a stupid prince.

However, when he stepped into the side hall and saw Liu Fei's sitting posture, he couldn't help but doubt his own judgment.

"Oh, it would be too difficult to meet Marquis Pei."

Liu Fei's opening remarks made Feng Yi and Gai Ju, who followed Pei Yue in, slightly startled. During this time, they had seen too many dignitaries who knelt down to Pei Yue. They did not expect that someone would have such a sarcastic tone.

Is this coming to find trouble?

Pei Yue walked to the main seat and sat down, and said calmly: "What advice does the prince have?"

Liu Fei said calmly: "I can't talk about advice. It's just that there are some misunderstandings between you and me that need to be resolved. As the saying goes, it's better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. Besides, you and I are both His Majesty's ministers. I don't think Marquis Pei will refuse, right?"

Pei Yue said calmly: "I wonder what the misunderstanding the prince is referring to is?"

Liu Fei chuckled and said: "Why do Marquis Pei pretend to be ignorant? It's nothing more than the incident about Qinyuan shares. I would like to teach Marquis Pei to know that I do intend to buy Qinyuan shares, and a large part of the reason is to make good friends."

Pei Hou. At the beginning, Pei Hou had not yet

When you return to the capital, the wind in the city is quite unfavorable to you. Those mansions are worried about losing all their money, so they want to sell Qinyuan's shares. I know that Marquis Pei is loyal to the country and cannot bear to see your property fall apart, so I want to

We need to help.”

Feng Yi and Gai Ju endured it again and again, but in the end they still looked like idiots.

What kind of pig-headed person is this Prince of Weinan County? Does he think that as a descendant of the clan, he can ride on the head of the Marquis of Zhongshan and dominate?

If he was facing an ordinary businessman, these words wouldn't be outrageous. They were just using his power to bully others.

But if he wanted to fool Pei Yue with such crude words, he was probably not just dreaming.

Pei Yue looked at Liu Fei's expression and asked curiously: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Liu Fei frowned and said, "What does Marquis Pei mean by this?"

Pei Yue picked up the tea cup and gently blew the floating tea leaves without saying a word.

Liu Fei said coldly: "I heard that Marquis Pei planned to reduce the business in Duzhong. This is a pity. After all, you have spent a lot of energy and money to spread the stall so big. Instead of wasting it in vain, why don't you and I cooperate?

No matter Qinyuan or Xiangyun, as long as Pei Hou is willing to let me invest in it, I guarantee that you will earn more than before."

Pei Yue said calmly: "What if I don't agree?"

Liu Fei narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "A few years ago, Marquis Pei purchased the mine in Shouyang Mountain at an extremely low price, which laid the foundation for rapid expansion. But as far as I know, the person who handled this matter was

The Ministry of Revenue officials were coerced by Marquis Guangping and sold the mine to Marquis Pei for a mere thirty thousand taels. If the court knew about this, I'm afraid...hehe..."

Pei Yue had not experienced such a straightforward threat for so long that he was in a daze for a while.

Although he had never overestimated the dandy children raised by the Tian family with silver rice, the performance of the Weinan County Prince still opened his eyes, and at the same time he fell into indescribable self-doubt.

From a normal point of view, a bossy young prince is not against common sense, but if you take into account the second prince behind him and the fact that he is most likely following the instructions of the second prince, this attitude is a bit strange.

After all, there was no need for the second prince to anger him so directly.

After a moment of silence, Pei Yue said with a bit of nostalgia: "Oh, it turns out that the prince came here to blackmail me today."

Liu Fei frowned and said: "What are you talking about, Marquis Pei? You and I are talking about business, why are you accused of blackmail? Of course, if Marquis Pei is unwilling to sell his shares, I will not make it difficult for you. I only need you to do something else."

Do something, and I guarantee that no one will try to take advantage of the property in your name."

Pei Yue said indifferently: "What's the matter?"

Liu Fei said slowly: "I only need Marquis Pei to give advice to His Majesty and clarify that the establishment of direct descendants is the foundation of our country——"

Pei Yue's expression suddenly changed, and he threw the teacup in his hand directly, hitting Liu Fei in the face. The hot tea poured all over his body, making him scream in pain.

"Pei Yue!"

Before Liu Fei's angry words could be heard, Pei Yue stood up and came to him, grabbed him by the collar, slapped him in the face, and said angrily: "Who are you? How dare you talk about the title of crown prince?"

!”

Just like Pei Yue didn't expect that King Liu Yun of Qi would send such a stupid lobbyist, Liu Fei also didn't expect that this young powerful man would really dare to attack the clan members. He was forced by his fierce momentum for a while and finally did not dare to continue his fierce behavior.

.

Pei Yue loosened his collar and said in a deep voice: "Get out!"

Feng Yi and Gai Ju looked at each other, stepped forward and politely took Liu Fei out.

After the hall became quiet, Pei Yue quickly regained his composure and was no longer as angry as before.

What Liu Fei did apart from completely irritating himself and bringing the relationship between the two parties to a freezing point, it did not do any good to the second prince's great cause of competing for the heir apparent.

However, according to the information previously obtained, Liu Fei has been following King Qi since he was a child, and he is known to everyone in the city as a hardcore supporter of King Qi.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster...

Pei Yue raised his hand and tapped the table gently, muttering to himself: "Since you don't want to see me stay out of the matter, then I have to fulfill your wish."

A cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes.
