When the calf was first rescued by Pei Yourui, he was only seven or eight years old, with a hungry face, thin and small, and he looked like he came out of a hard life.

Since being taken in by Pei Yourui, she has eaten well and dressed well, and in the past three or four years, she has grown a lot higher like a sapling.

A person who was only in his early teens, standing there was no longer much shorter than Pei Yourui, and his face was ruddy, his eyebrows were delicate, and he was wearing a robe that Pei Yourui specially asked someone to make for him.

Hearing this at this moment, he showed a confused look: "County Lord, what did you say?" The calf didn't understand. ”

"You're still pretending to be confused with me?" Pei Yourui trembled with anger, and said in a trembling voice, "Fangcai County Ma has already had a showdown with me, saying that I took eight thousand taels of silver and a pair of white jade and gold ginseng to buy Zheng An, the dowry guard of Lu Chaoyu, a Tongshu person, and went to Liaozhou to murder Jian Yiyu's family, Your Majesty has asked Gu Xiang to find out!" If it weren't for Gu Xiangnian's sake, who did everything possible to mediate for me in front of His Majesty, I would have been on my way to the palace for interrogation!! ”

As soon as she heard this, she knew that she had been sold by the calf, "I don't know what Zheng An is, and I have never bought him to go to Liaozhou to do anything - but I remember that a few months ago, you told me that you met a former benefactor, whose mother was seriously ill and needed platinum ginseng but had no way, you couldn't bear it, so you took the liberty to ask me for advice, but there is a place where you can buy platinum ginseng!" ”

When Pei Yourui got married, she received a lot of congratulatory gifts, and there were many precious medicinal materials in them.

She was used to being a big lady who spent a lot of money, and she took the calf as her younger brother, and after hearing this, she asked a few words casually, and then ordered someone to take a pair of white jade gold ginseng from the library and give it to the calf - she didn't even investigate whether the calf was given away!

Not only that, in order to prevent others from becoming jealous of the calf after knowing that they had given such a precious thing to the calf, she even took the initiative to order Lan Xiang not to spread the word, and so far only she, the little cow, and Lan Xiang knew about it!

Thinking of this, she looked at the calf in disbelief, "In my life, since I was cheated by Jian Yiyu and Changxing without my father, I understand that in this world, it is not that I don't hurt others, and others will not come to harm you." But why you? Where am I sorry for you, or did you so-called being saved by me have ulterior motives?! ”

That's what she asked, but she was already sure it was the latter.

Otherwise, Xiao Niu is just a little beggar without a father and mother, and he is only so big this year, even if he wants to harm Pei Yourui, how can he come up with such a conspiracy?

He just figured it out, where to get the eight thousand taels of silver?!

It can be seen that this child has a different background, and the reason why he has been coming to his side is definitely not to repay his kindness, nor to find a backer, but to have other plans - for a while, Pei Yourui felt that her heartbeat stopped: she is a deep boudoir woman, even if she has to be named the county lord, in the final analysis, she is also stained with the light of Princess Su, what is worth it for others to spend so much effort to calculate?

Especially when the calf came to her, she was at the most depressed time in her life, and at that time she was even mentally prepared to live in Youzhou for the rest of her life and never perform in the imperial capital for the rest of her life!

"I'm just an ordinary woman, I don't think there's anything worth your attention!" Pei Yourui pressed her hand to her chest, her pupils were a little dilated, and she muttered, "If you try to win my sympathy and get close to me, you must be coming for someone related to me!" Is it for my dad? No, you didn't get entangled with me until my dad went! I say this to ...... Stepmother?! ”

It took almost all her strength before she asked, "That gazebo, you...... What did you do?! ”

- If Pei He hadn't died, how could she have returned to the imperial capital?

If she doesn't return to the imperial capital, how can they fight the idea of the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom?!

Thinking of this, Pei Yourui was almost crazy - could it be that over the years, she has treated her like her own brother, and it is her father-killing enemy who has treated her like a younger brother? !

"No, it's not." Hearing this, the little cow was silent for a moment, lost his confusion and bewilderment, no longer pretending to be confused, there was no expression on his still childish face, looking at Pei Yourui's gaze, as if looking at an ordinary stone without a little fluctuation, he said in a very calm tone, "At first, I approached you by pretending to be a beggar, but I actually went to Ling Zun. ”

"After Ling Zun passed away unexpectedly, I retreated and asked to follow you!"

"So I'm not your father-killer, and even, when I was in the Pei family, my brother and sister-in-law murdered you several times, and it was also me and my companions who blocked it for you!"

Pei Yourui was stunned: "Who are you?" Go to my dad...... What do you want to do to my dad?! ”

"We have no ill will towards Ling Zun, and neither will you." When Xiao Niu said this, he saw the distrustful look in Pei Yourui's eyes, and he didn't care, and continued, "You now think that what I am doing in your name is harming you, but in fact it is not. ”

He thought for a moment and said, "The leader has already sent a message before, my identity, I can tell you if necessary!" ”

Between the talks, he is still between men. The figure between the child and the teenager fluttered, and with this seemingly simple, but clearly taught by orthodox etiquette, Pei Yourui had already faintly spied on his origin.

Sure enough, Xiao Niu said calmly, "'Ink Blade' Jia Eleven, meet the county lord of Jingmin!" ”

One of the six valves in the sea, Donghu Liu's family, the secret guard "ink blade".

- The true master of the Northlands.

The depth of the heritage, even if the Liu family and the Shen family have guarded the tomb for three generations, so that the government and the opposition have forgotten their great reputation when they founded the country, the Pei family in Youzhou, which is also in the north, is still beyond reach!

Pei Yourui's mind was in chaos.

"My master has been guarding the tomb in recent years, and he wants to go out of office. Of course, the marriage of the children of the clan should also be considered for this! "Xiao Niu, or now we should call him Jia Eleven, explain the ins and outs of his lurking on Pei Yourui's side, "Although the Pei family in Youzhou is not among the six valves in the sea, it is also a prominent family of several dynasties, and it is located in the same north as the Liu family, and it is also half a neighbor. ”

Therefore, after the head of the family learned that the marriage of the county lord had changed, he intended to propose to the county lord for the son. The son of the Liu family's generation is the son of Jingcheng who won the list this time! ”

Jia 11 said, "After learning that Scholar Pei returned to his hometown with the county lord, the head of the family ordered me to try to blend into the team and observe the temperament of the county lord and whether he and the son of my clan have signed a contract. ”

Pei Yourui was stunned, and the anger of being deceived calmed down slightly.

As the daughter of the Pei family, although the ancestors of the Pei family are not as prominent as the Liu family, she also has common sense in the family.

The reason why the famous family can have a long history and have survived several changes of dynasty is that the cultivation of children is of course the most important thing - otherwise, no matter how powerful the contemporary principals are, once there is no successor, such a family will definitely be annihilated in history and disappear from everyone.

And a complete upbringing cannot just be the father's errand, and the mother's participation is also indispensable.

Therefore, the marriage of the children of the Wang family, especially the marriage of the children of the grandchildren, is very particular.

As the next head of the family, let alone Zongzi - after all, his wife is the head mother of the family!

Under normal circumstances, the next son will be born and raised by this woman.

So how can the Liu family not be cautious? For this reason, with a little means, he sent secret guards to lurk beside the Pei family's father and daughter to find out Pei Yourui's true temperament and personality.

Because when Pei He chose a wife for her eldest brother, she also considered it again and again, and she didn't use any less means in the open and in the dark, and she made a decision after weighing it repeatedly - although her sister-in-law was not good to her, this was mainly because she and her sister-in-law had never met a few times, and their relationship was limited.

And Pei He left a will before he died, giving his daughter so many things, in this generation that generally believes that her daughter is an outsider, it is actually normal for her sister-in-law to have opinions, after all, her eldest brother's opinion is greater than her sister-in-law.

is a wife and a mother, her sister-in-law is actually qualified.

"But you never mentioned Liu Jingcheng to me!" Pei Yourui stabilized her mind and said in a deep voice, "On the contrary, it is the county horse-you have said good things about him in front of me!" ”

"Because after Ling Zun died, the head of the family dispelled the idea of proposing." Jia Eleven's tone was still calm, "County Lord, please don't misunderstand!" The reason why the head of the family did this has no other meaning: it's just that the Liu family has been dormant for many years and has just entered the WTO, so it is really not suitable to rashly get involved in the turmoil! The head of the family admires the county lord himself very much, and once said that the county lord has a lot of demeanor. ”

- If Pei He hadn't died, although Pei Yourui also had a grudge against Jian Yiyou and Princess Changxing, she hadn't yet reached the point of considering revenge, first, whether Jian Yiyou or Princess Changxing, the dignity of her status was above Pei Yourui, how easy was it for her to take revenge on these two? Second, Pei Yourui's nature is not the kind of person who will repay her, and after being embarrassed and sad, she endured it.

But Pei He died, or died on the way back to save his daughter: if Pei Yourui hadn't been repentant, Pei He wouldn't have returned to his hometown with his daughter at all, so how could he die?

Pei Yourui, who thinks like this, can imagine the degree of resentment towards Jian Yiyu and Princess Changxing!

The Liu family understands her feelings, but as a big family that urgently needs to revive the lintel, they definitely don't want to book the identity of the next emperor's concubine and an emperor's nephew's enemy before returning to the court.

As for saying that after marrying Pei Yourui, persuade her to dispel such thoughts?

What the Liu family wants is a housemother who can cultivate the next son, there is a way that the father's hatred is not shared, if Pei Yourui is so easy to persuade, it can be seen that either the heart is weak, or the person is cold, no matter which one, the Liu family can't look down on it; If she doesn't agree, there will be a rift between her and the Liu family, so how can she assist Liu Jingcheng well?

So for the Liu family, the best thing to do is to treat it as if there is no such thing.

"Since my father is gone, the head of the Liu family will no longer consider proposing to me." Pei Yourui asked expressionlessly, "Then why did you follow me later?" ”

"Naturally, it is for Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom." Jia Shiyi said briskly, "The Liu family has guarded the tomb for many years, and the ears and eyes above the court have withered very much!" Not to mention the news in the palace - although Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom does not ask about the government, as the golden branch and jade leaf of the two dynasties, she can know many things in the palace forbidden. You are the pearl of her palm, and you can hear a lot of secrets. I stayed with you, mainly to collect this kind of information for the family, so I won't harm you, after all, you have to have three longs and two shorts, even if it doesn't affect me, how can I complete my mission? ”

Speaking of this, a flash of fluctuation flashed in Jia Shiyi's eyes, and he said softly, "What's more, you treat me really well, and I don't want to hurt you in my heart." ”

"The secret guard of the six valves is the most loyal!" Pei Yourui let out a sigh and laughed miserably, "Even if you are grateful to me, if the Liu family wants you to kill me, you won't hesitate, won't you?!" Just like you deceived me into taking away a pair of white jade and golden ginseng this time, and planted the blame on my head for the Liaozhou Annihilation Tragedy! ”

She waved her hand to stop what Jia Eleven was about to say, "I already know the purpose of your coming to me!" So, now let's talk about Liaozhou! ”

Pei Yourui's expression was cold, "You said you wouldn't harm me - how can you explain this matter?!" ”
