Pei Minqiu has two brothers, the eldest brother Pei is the current Sima of Xihe County, and the second brother Pei Ming did not enter the office, sitting at home, Pei Wenyi was embarrassed to come to his daughter, how could he not withstand the pressure of his wife, so he had to take the opportunity to visit his daughter today and made this request to his daughter.

The daughter did not refuse, accepted the resume, but was unexpectedly denied by her father, Pei Wenyi's face showed embarrassment, but the anger in Wang's eyes burst out, the father-in-law ruined his husband's life, do you want to destroy your son again?

Her blood suddenly surged into her head, and she said angrily: "Daddy, the other Pei families are all golden and delicate children, but is our son picked up from the garbage heap?" ”

Pei Ju said coldly: "Who are you talking to?" ”

Pei Wen saw that his father was angry, he was frightened, and hurriedly persuaded his wife, "Lady, don't say it again." ”

Wang was so angry that tears came out, and she scolded her husband: "You are a wreck, you have no ability to do it yourself, you have been wronged all your life, and I have accepted my fate, do you want my son to be like you for a lifetime?" ”

Pei Ju' bang! slapped the table and shouted angrily: "The Pei family's affairs are my decision, and it is not your turn to teach the daughter of the Wang family a lesson, if you are not satisfied, go back to your Wang family!" ”

At this time, Pei Minqiu's face was also a little unbearable, on one side was her grandfather's head of the family, and on the other hand was her parents, what should she do?

She had to smile reluctantly: "Everyone is a family, don't quarrel anymore, give me a little face, okay?" ”

The inner hall fell silent all of a sudden, and Pei Ju and Mrs. Wang suddenly realized that this was the Chu Palace, not Pei's Mansion, and both of them turned their heads angrily and stopped talking.

Pei Minqiu said to his father again: "Father, you and your mother should go back first!" I'll talk to my grandfather. ”

Pei Wenyi pulled his wife, "Let's go back!" ”

Wang's heart changed his mind, with his father-in-law here, his son's business could not be accomplished. Come back another day, but it doesn't work, she directly asks her son-in-law for help.

She wouldn't say hello either, so she stood up and rushed away angrily. Pei Wenyi sighed and saluted his father, "Father, the child will leave first." ”

"Go ahead!"

Pei Ju watched them walk away, and couldn't help but glared at the back of the Wang family, in the end, she was the woman of the Wang family, and her temperament was the same as that of the Wang family.

"Grandfather. What happened? ”

Pei Minqiu is very smart, she feels that her grandfather is a little different today than usual, he will not refuse so categorically, he has never been, even if he disagrees, he will implicitly remind himself afterwards that this is definitely not grandfather's style.

Pei Ju sighed, "Actually, it's not aimed at your second brother today." Today's incident happened to be a coincidence, and frankly, even I myself was ready to say goodbye to the old man and resign. And your uncle, his ability is average, and he should give up his position, so I am also ready to let him resign. ”

"Grandfather, what the hell is going on?"

Pei Minqiu's expression became serious, "Did Yuan Qing say something?" ”

"That's not true, Minqiu, you are a smart child, you should understand the current situation of our Pei family."

Pei Minqiu bit his lip lightly. There was a little gloom in her eyes, she understood what her grandfather meant, not because the Pei family was too strong, no family didn't want to be strong, it was because of herself, her grandfather was afraid that the powerful Pei family would hurt herself.

In fact, this is also what Pei Minqiu hopes. She doesn't want her mother's family to become too powerful because of herself, since ancient times, such relatives will not end well, but without the support of her mother's family, her position as a wife cannot be kept, this is an extremely contradictory two-sided, where the balance point in the middle, she doesn't know.

This is where Pei Minqiu's worries lie when she heard that her husband was named the queen of Chu, her marriage is no longer based on feelings, her marriage is no longer simple, but she can't help herself.

Pei Minqiu sighed lowly, "Thank you, grandfather!" ”

Pei Ju's eyes suddenly moistened, I am afraid that the entire Pei family, only this granddaughter of his can understand his hard work, he nodded silently and stood up, "Then I'm leaving, your second brother's matter, you can recommend him to join the army and be a civilian officer, but don't say this is what I mean, do you understand?" ”

"Grandfather, I understand."

Pei Ju turned around and staggered away, Pei Minqiu looked at her grandfather's back as she gradually moved away, at this moment, she suddenly felt that her grandfather was really old...... Early the next morning, the war drums sounded outside the city of Taiyuan, this is the triumphant return of the soldiers of the Sui army, the city of Taiyuan is full of sensations, almost pouring out of the city, to welcome the soldiers who have returned from victory.

Yang Yuanqing led 80,000 soldiers to march towards the city, looking at the warm and joyful faces, he could feel that this was the support of the people from the bottom of their hearts.

Yang Yuanqing wore gold armor and iron armor, rode to the front of the team, surrounded by flags, hundreds of flags lined up in four teams, the momentum was mighty, he smiled, and kept waving to the welcoming crowd.

"Hooray!"

I don't know who shouted first, and the crowd suddenly erupted in an earth-shattering shout, "Hooray!" Long live His Majesty the Emperor! ”

Yang Yuanqing was very helpless in his heart, the hearts of the people were the most simple, they didn't care what taboos they had, they just used the loudest voice to show their inner expectations, which touched Yang Yuanqing's heart, he had to smile and wave to everyone to express his gratitude for their love...... The team crossed Taiyuan City, and went out from the North City, they were going to Jinyang Palace, and when they walked to the North City Gate, the people on both sides finally became sparse, at this time, Yang Yuanqing suddenly saw two wanted portraits on the wall next to the city gate, and there was a line of words below, 'Anjin Temple assassinated the murderer, and the one who provided the clue was rewarded with five hundred taels of silver. ’

Yang Yuanqing was taken aback, Anjin Temple, isn't that the temple offered by the Chu Palace? What happened to the assassination, and he asked for a reward of five hundred taels of silver, and before that, the best reward was only equivalent to fifty taels of silver, and an ominous sign welled up in his heart.

"Ling Xie Yingdeng came to see me!" Yang Yuanqing couldn't wait, and immediately ordered.

After a moment, Xie Yingdeng rushed in from behind, "See the manager!" ”

Yang Yuanqing pointed to the bounty on the wall, "What's going on?" ”

Xie Yingdeng's face showed a look of shame, and he said for a while: "It was the princess and the prince who were assassinated in Anjin Temple, but they were all safe and sound. ”

Yang Yuanqing's face suddenly became extremely ugly, he didn't know about such an important matter, and no one told him, including Xie Yingdeng in front of him.

Yang Yuanqing restrained the anger in his heart and asked, "Who did it?" ”

Xie Yingdeng shook his head, "I don't know for the time being, I heard that there are no clues." ”

Yang Yuanqing glanced at the team, the front of the team was almost to Jinyang Palace, he didn't have time to ask in detail, and immediately ordered: "Let Wei Ben come to see me!" ”

He whipped his horse and ran towards the front of the group.

At the gate of Jinyang Palace, all the officials and officials have come out, ready to welcome the return of the King of Chu, including the little emperor Yang Yu also came out, he has rarely appeared, as an emperor, he is more of a symbolic meaning, except for the annual dynasty and major celebrations, he generally does not show up.

He puts his time and energy into reading, Yang Yu is very smart, he knows how to protect himself, any murder comes from the desire for power, he completely eliminates this desire, he is only willing to be a reader.

Yang Yuanqing turned over and dismounted, stepped forward quickly, and knelt down in front of Yang Yu, "Minister Yang Yuanqing see Your Majesty the Emperor!" ”

Yang Yu hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and said softly: "King Chu, please excuse me!" ”

At the moment when he helped Yang Yuanqing up, he whispered in Yang Yuanqing's ear again, "Uncle Huang, I want to leave Jinyang Palace." ”

Yang Yuanqing likes this child very much, smart, well-behaved, and docile, although he doesn't want Yang Yu to continue to stay in Jinyang Palace, but now is far from the time, he smiled slightly, and comforted him in a low voice: "Although you can study with peace of mind, nothing will happen." ”

At this time, the five prime ministers all stepped forward to salute, "Congratulations to His Royal Highness the King of Chu for his victory in Hebei and the extermination of Dou Jiande." ”

Yang Yuanqing raised his voice and said to all the officials: "This is not my personal victory, not only the victory of the army, this is the victory of the entire Sui Dynasty, without the support of the ministers behind the scenes, without sufficient money, food and transportation of the people, we would not have achieved such a great victory, I want to thank everyone!" ”

Hundreds of officials burst into applause......

After a brief welcome ceremony, the army went back to the barracks to rest, Yang Yu also returned to the inner palace, Yang Yuanqing and the ministers returned to Ziwei Pavilion, he walked into his court room, and Su Wei and Pei Ju immediately followed.

"Your Highness, we are ashamed that an unpleasant thing happened in Anjin Temple."

Yang Yuanqing waved his hand, "I already know about this matter, how is the investigation progressing now?" ”

Su Wei and Pei Ju glanced at each other, they both guessed that maybe the army had told the king of Chu, Su Wei hurriedly said: "The investigation is still continuing, and the only clue now is that a businessman said that he had seen the people on the bounty portrait in Mayi County, and it was said that there was not just one person, but more than a dozen people. ”

"Mayi-gun!"

Yang Yuanqing frowned slightly, could it be that the murderer came from the grassland? But it's not certain, maybe Li Yuan sent him to deliberately go to Mayi County to walk around as a confuse.

"No matter where the people come from, these don't matter, the important thing is that there can't be another assassination, not only my family, but also you, since the other party has more than a dozen people, then there is still the possibility of launching a second assassination, there can be no carelessness, Ziwei Pavilion will discuss it, give me a list, and I will arrange internal guards for special protection."

Su Wei and Pei Ju secretly admired in their hearts, they were worthy of being the highest power, as soon as they came back, they had a specific response plan to promote the development of the situation, and they discussed for so many days, but there was no conclusion.

Su Wei put a Ziwei Pavilion resolution on Yang Yuanqing's table, "Your Highness, this is a resolution of Ziwei Pavilion, it is about the removal of Jing Zhaoyin, and it will take effect after His Highness's approval." ”

Yang Yuanqing glanced at Su Wei, and he found that an imperceptible bright color flashed in Su Wei's eyes, as if hinting at something, so he nodded, "Put it here first, and I'll make a decision after thinking about it......
