Chapter 104: Dreams Are Like Knives
Lang Tingyu's worries and worries were only Pei Shu's extremely short four-word answer: "You know a fart!" Immediately, he closed the fan and put on his robe and got into the car.
In front of his subordinates, the gangsterism of this little marquis was no longer hidden, and it was undoubtedly revealed.
Lang Tingyu's face became more bitter, he pulled the car door, sat on the wheel, and sighed all the way without stopping.
Pei Shu knew what he was worried about.
Anyway, the eldest princess is also the emperor's sister-in-law, and it is too late for ordinary people to hide, but now he has to go to the eldest princess's mansion to question. With the current foundation of the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion, it would be unwise for him to do so.
However, he couldn't wait.
Ever since he was ten years old, when his grandfather said those words to him on his deathbed, it was as if a knife was cutting through his heart, and he had no peace.
To this day, he often has a dream.
In the dream, his father, covered in blood and with a feathered arrow stuck in his heart, stood on the battlefield full of corpses, with blood and tears in his eyes, and stretched out an arm, pointing straight behind him.
Behind him, a man stood.
A man who was so covered in a thick fog that he couldn't see clearly.
Every time he dreamed of this, Pei Shu would wake up sweating profusely, and then stay awake all night.
His father and brother were not killed in battle at all!
They died at the hands of their own people.
And that cold arrow is the best proof of this.
The man hidden in the fog is the murderer.
…… Grandfather checked, carefully checked, the arrow that killed your father came from the rear, and behind your father, there was only Pei Jiajun......
…… The real culprit who shot your father, grandfather only found out a few days ago, but before grandfather could take someone to lock it, he fell into the well and drowned......
…… Shu'er, grandfather doesn't know what your father did back then, but grandfather wants to tell you that your father must have offended someone, that person bought the scum in the Pei family's army and put him to death......
…… Shu'er, you must be careful, this person is hidden in the shadows, you can't relax for a moment......
The old man's trembling and unwilling voice before dying was as illusory as a dream, but it could be heard in Pei Shu's ears, but every sentence was as heavy as a lightning strike.
He's going to find this guy!
Since then, he has set himself this goal.
No matter what the price is, he must also find out the murderer, so that his father and brother who died and his grandfather who died with hatred can rest in peace under Jiuquan.
The wheels were rolling, driving through the noisy Qingmen Street, Pei Shu was half leaning against the wall of the car, and his whole face was hidden in the shadow cast by the curtain.
Over the years, he has never stopped conducting open and secret investigations, and just half a year ago, he finally found out a little eyebrows.
The murderer is hiding in the capital, and his identity is probably not low, so he can't say which high-ranking official or noble.
It is precisely because of this that Pei Shu will obey the call of Emperor Yuanjia and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, come to Shengjing from Ningxia, and also abandon the forbidden army to join the criminal department, just to find out the truth of the year.
The carriage stopped at some point, and Lang Tingyu's voice came from outside: "Master, it's time to get there." ”
Pei Shu woke up from his contemplation, let out a low "hmm", his voice seemed to be a little gloomy, paused for a moment, and asked, "What about Lao He?" ”
The old He he said was named He Tingzheng, and he was Pei Shu's guard like Lang Tingyu, and he was ordered to go to the Eldest Princess's Mansion to deliver the name post, and Pei Shu told him to wait in place.
Even if there is Emperor Yuanjia's will in advance, the Eldest Princess's Mansion is not a place where you can come and go at will, and it is a proper etiquette for Pei Shu to hand over the post in advance.
"If you go back to your master, Lao He is not here." Lang Tingyu said, as soon as he turned around, he saw Pei Shu pushing the door and getting out of the car, so Lang Tingyu frowned again and opened his face: "Could something happen?" ”
The gate of the eldest princess's mansion was closed, and there was no half of a figure left and right. At this moment, the scorching sun was shining down, and the stone beast in front of the door was sunburned white, and the big copper nails on the dark lacquer door also seemed to be about to be sunburned.
Lang Tingyu looked up at the sky, looked back and said, "Why don't you go and wait in the car." ”
"Knock." Pei Shu ignored him, shook his hand, and opened the folding fan.
Lang Tingyu said "hey", and was about to climb the stairs, when he suddenly saw the gate open suddenly, and a team of servants walked out silently and orderly, lined up on both sides of the stone steps, and then, a man wearing a gauze shirt, tied a brocade belt, and dressed as a eunuch, came out of the crowd, walked quickly with a smile on his face, and greeted: "Oh, Lord Pei forgives your sins, the slaves are late, you forgive your sins, you forgive your sins." ”
While greeting him, he walked down the stage at a rapid pace, bowing and saluting: "The slave Geng Yuchang is the steward of the eldest princess's mansion, and he is here to greet the adult." Your Highness has received your lord's post, and He Ye is now drinking tea in the tea room. After saying this, the attitude was extremely respectful.
No wonder He Tingzheng didn't appear, it turned out that he was detained by the eldest princess
Pei Shu's expression remained unchanged, and the frequency of shaking the fan was still the same as Fang Cai, with a bit of arrogance and a bit of ease.
The eldest princess was taking He Tingzheng and warning him not to act rashly.
It's really ridiculous that a princess is arrogant and arrogant, and she uses the court officials as lackeys.
At this moment, Geng Yuchang smiled again: "Your Highness told the servants to come early to welcome the guests, but the weather is too hot, and the iron bolt on the door is hot, and it has been delayed for a long time, please forgive me." ”
said kind words, but in his bones, he was arrogant.
"Lead the way." Pei Shu didn't look at him at all, put the fan away, put up his hands, exhaled, and popped out two words full of officialdom.
He came to interrogate by order, and Liwei's kind of thing had no effect on him at all.
When Geng Yuchang saw it, he didn't dare to say anything, nodded and said yes, then turned around and led Pei Shu to the outer study.
The eldest princess of Yongning and the horse master Guo Zhun were both waiting in the room, and when they saw Pei Shu, the two sides greeted each other again.
After the guests and hosts sat down, Pei Shu explained his intentions. When the eldest princess heard this, the pair of carefully drawn small mountain eyebrows immediately frowned, and the fingers painted with bright red dancome also put on the handrails, and said with a face full of embarrassment: "I have heard the imperial brother say it before, this is really difficult to handle, no matter how much the palace thinks, who can remember the events of so long ago?" ”
At this point, her soft eyes turned to Guo Zhun and asked softly, "Did the husband say it?" ”
Guo Zhun smiled mildly and said, "Just as His Highness said." ”
Lang Run's voice, lined with the face like a jade tree of Zhilan, although there were only a few words, it seemed that the air in the study was warm.
The eldest princess's eyes were stunned all of a sudden, and she looked at him infatuated for a while, and then said softly: "The husband thinks the same as this palace, and this palace is really happy." ”
