Chapter 13 The Tiger Father Has No Dog Son

As early as more than ten years ago, when Xiao Di was still the crown prince, he joined the East Palace. It stands to reason that if this thing of using her own housewife as bait was done by someone else, Pei Yaowei would not be so calm, but if it was placed on Gu Zijun, she just wanted to sigh that the tiger father has no dog.

I remember that at the beginning of the twentieth year of Wu Yao, the prince repented of his marriage, and then the two kings competed for the throne for more than a year.

In the middle of the year, Nanyi Island sent troops to invade the border, and the first emperor appointed Pei Xi, the Duke of Huaiguo, to lead the troops to the south to conquer, and won a great victory in more than a month. Unexpectedly, when Pei Gongxuan returned to Beijing, he was stabbed by a small line, and the feather arrow was quenched and poisoned, and it was not in the chest, and when he was brought back, it was already a coffin.

The first emperor mourned, cried and hung under the dust capital, and the book was for the Duke of Qi of Huaiguo.

In July, the prince Pei Changge attacked the Duke of Huaiguo, not a few, Nanyi Island came back to invade, the first emperor to Fengji County Duke Gu Duwu, Xu Guogong Pan Jie as the left and right governors, led the troops to fight Nanyi, at that time, Pei Changge, Pei Yaoge brothers, Jingguo Duke Qin, Xu Guogong's nephew Pan Cheng and other martial arts children, also accompanied the army as generals.

In November, on the battlefield in the south, the news of Pei Changge, Pei Yaoge, and the death of Duke Qin of Jing was reported successively.

In less than half a year, Pei Yaowei jumped from the youngest daughter pampered by her father and brother to the most senior person in the Pei family. She has sent funerals for her three fathers and brothers, among them, the second brother died the worst, and he didn't even find his body, so he had to erect a well-dressed mound for mourning.

And her hatred for Xiao Di reached its peak at this time-

The division of the army, including Li Jinfang, a subordinate of the Gu family, reported in court that the lord Gu Duwu was instructed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to secretly harm Pei Yaoge, causing him to die unjustly on the battlefield, and his bones were gone.

At that time, the evidence was ironclad, and the prince also confessed, bluntly saying that because of his personal hatred for the Pei family, he coerced Fengji County Gonggu Duwu to secretly do harm during the war. The first emperor was furious, abolished the crown prince, demoted the king of Chu, and Gu Duwu was deprived of the title of duke of the county and exempted from all official positions because of the crime of coercion.

At this point, everything seems to have been decided. After that, in the twenty-first year of Wu Yao, the first emperor signed the edict of Princess Qin, Pei Yao married Xiao Zhu, and became the princess of Qin for less than five months.

In the past year and a half, she has a grudge against Xiao Di in her heart, even if he has already gone north to become a vassal, she is still embarrassed by him.

At the beginning of the first year of Yan Ping, Gu Duwu. When Pei Yaowei heard the news in Changqiu Palace at that time, there was no wave in his heart, and he responded lightly, and then turned around and continued to teach Qingtan to write.

Beside him, Fang Yue pondered for a moment, and asked carefully: "Master, before going to Emperor Yan to drive the first year, thinking that Gu Duwu had been ill for a long time since he was demoted, he was moved by compassion for a while, and restored his title, and now that he is gone, it is cheaper for the descendants of the Gu family, look at this ......"

Pei Yaowei glanced at her lightly, and Fang Yue was stunned, remembering that Qingtan was still in front of her, and she knew that she was speechless, so she didn't dare to say more for a while.

After Qingtan finished writing and was released from Sahuan'er, Pei Yao took a sip of tea, and then said to Fangyue: "I know what you mean, I always don't want to see the Gu family have a good time." ”

Fang Yue said hatefully: "The slave is naturally unwilling! If it weren't for them, the second son wouldn't have ......"

But Pei Yaowei shook his head, "Gu's ...... In the final analysis, it's just a tiger, how many subordinates dare to disobey the orders of the lord? She looked at Fang Yue, "Take a step back, even if the second brother's death, Gu Duwu is not coerced and is the mastermind, then now his death is over, one person does things and one person is responsible, I don't bother to embarrass his descendants." ”

"Master......"

What else did Fang Yue have to say, at this time, but seeing Xiuxing walking in with a smile on his face, Fu Shen saluted, "Master, my cousin's family letter, it was just delivered in eight hundred miles in an expedited manner!" ”

Cousin Zhao Ju, since he was a child, has been an old and stable person, and rarely writes family letters until the New Year's holidays. The brother and sister moved around frequently when they were young, and whenever Yao Wei went to Beilin, or studyed, or played, her cousin took her with her, and they had a deep and harmonious relationship with each other. So much so that when she heard a letter from her family at first glance, the surprise in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

Fang Yue also quipped on the side: "This is also rare!" Shangyuan's family letter has not yet been hot, and another one came, which is not like the usual style of my cousin! ”

In her ears was the sound of the girls making fun of this, and Pei Yao also laughed at first, but when her eyes fell on the letter, she couldn't laugh.

In the envelope, there were two letters, one was written by Zhao Ju, and the other was a love letter.

"Master, what's wrong with you......" Xiuxing noticed that her expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "But...... What's going on with my cousin? Why did your face suddenly turn so bad? ”

Pei Yaowei couldn't hear her words anymore.

The love letter fell from her hand to the ground, and even with her hatred for Xiao Di, it was so fluttering and self-defeating without warning.

- Zhao said in the letter that before Gu Duwu died, he was trapped by demons and felt uneasy, so he sent people to pass on the book thousands of miles and sent him this love letter.

In the letter, he confessed that before the two armies were in front of the battle, because he was worried that the Pei clan had a tendency to get close to the king of Qin, and he also wanted to make a hundred ends of the Gu clan, and further further, he privately ordered to set up an ambush for the second son of the Pei family, in order to slander the Pei family's vitality. It's just that he didn't expect that he was betrayed by his subordinates later, and calculated to kill Pei's second son, but he also calculated the Gu family to a dead end.

What I didn't expect was that after the East Window incident, His Royal Highness the King of Chu clearly didn't know anything about what he did, but he still took all the blame for it, and was willing to bear this black pot for him in order to protect the Gu clan.

Fang Yue picked up the love letter and read it from beginning to end, gradually widening her eyes.

"Master...... This, this can't be! She didn't want to believe it, "This must not be true!" Gu Duwu is a subordinate of the King of Chu! How could the King of Chu not know what he had done? How dare he do such a big thing! ”

Fangyue was very excited, but Pei Yaowei believed that Xiao Di was very likely to really not know.

Back then, Li Jinfang reported that Gu Duwu was instructed by the prince to assassinate Pei Yaoge, but none of the evidence presented in court was related to Xiao Di.

It's all about Gu Duwu.

The situation at that time, no matter who Li Jinfang was instructed to stand up and denounce Gu Duwu, the ultimate goal must be to deal with Xiao Di, in this case, if there is really direct evidence that can prove that Xiao Di is related to this matter, how can it not see the light of day?

Now that I think about it, if Xiao Di hadn't come forward to admit this matter, the first emperor would have cured the crime, and he would have been a lax emperor at best. Needless to say, the Gu family is full of people, but his position as the crown prince will definitely not be lost so simply.

Gu Duwu's love letter made Pei Yaowei calm down for the first time after turning against Xiao Di and re-examine Xiao Di.

Later, she felt that in addition to the indiscretions of men and women, the place next to him was also a little rare......

The old things wandered around her mind, and she heard Xiao Di say: "I shouldn't hide this matter from you." ”

Pei Yaowei was slightly stunned, and pretended to be stupid: "What shouldn't you hide from me?" ”

Xiao Di had no choice but to say: "Before you disappeared, I assigned Zijun to be in charge of the boundary south of Lingcheng. At the same time that he found you, he also accidentally discovered the whereabouts of the eldest grandson, and as soon as the two parties got in touch, he did what happened later. ”

If you really want to talk about it, Pei Yaowei thinks that she can't blame the Gu family for not being good at discipline, there are always such unruly and disobedient people in two or three lifetimes, and the root problem is still on Xiao Di himself.

Gu Duwu's matter was never handled strictly, and the Gu family watched it, so naturally they didn't have a long memory. I just don't know if Gu Zijun came like this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu would pick it up again and put it down gently.

As she was thinking so, Xiao Di said: "He made a big mistake this time, I have ordered Mo Yan, and I will send someone to escort him back to the dust capital early tomorrow morning, and he will be grounded for a year and a half." ”

Pei Yaowei was a little surprised, and after a while, he laughed and said, "Marquis Zhang Ting also has a knighthood, Your Highness does this...... Is there a law to follow? ”

Xiao Di laughed, "Zhang Tinghou voluntarily grounded, this king is just fulfilling him." ”

Pei Yao was stunned, and then laughed as well.

"By the way," she asked, remembering someone, "how is the eldest grandson?" ”

Xiao Di didn't raise his head, and said casually: "Kill." ”

"Kill ......," she looked at him in surprise, "kill?" ”

He hummed and said, "Don't worry, I left him the whole body, and the body was put into the coffin, and it was already on the way to Zhou Guo." ”

The people of the eldest grandson's family, if they say kill, they will kill them?

"Now that Liang Zhou is cultivating the alliance and enjoying peace, you just killed him like this...... Is it appropriate? ”

Xiao Di didn't explain much, only told her that the eldest grandson really deserved to die, even if it wasn't suitable, he would have to die.

Pei Yaowei looked at him with complicated eyes.

She was a little curious, whether Xiao Di killed him like this for the sake of the dignity of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, or for the sake of ...... Angry that the eldest grandson really hurt himself more?

Xiao Di saw that she was entangled, but when she was worried about the relationship between the two countries, she thought about it, and couldn't help but say more: "You don't have to worry, I am completely sure that Zhou Guo will not use this as an excuse to tear up the peace alliance." ”

Oh, she thought indifferently, so you're completely sure.

She snorted, and for a moment, she didn't want to know so much about the reason behind his move.

"However, this time you have been missing for a long time, Zijun also said that when he found your traces, you were respectfully sent back from the south of Lingcheng." He asked, "What else did you not tell me?" ”

Pei Yaowei met his scrutinizing gaze, feeling very uncomfortable.

Naturally, there are still a lot of internal affairs, but I am afraid that His Royal Highness the King of Chu will not be blessed.

"You're right, what you see in your eyes is just a drop in the ocean!" She said, "Speaking of which, I still remember the appearance of the person who took me away in the first place, not as good as ...... I'll draw it for you, so why don't you follow it? Give me justice? ”
