Chapter Twenty-Six: Hedong Pei
Five days,
Yang Jun and Pei Shuying disappeared for five days.
In the past five days, tens of thousands of people have been consumed, and there have been many discussions in the government and the opposition.
After all, one of the most powerful princes and concubines had an accident, and the other was the concubine of Pei Ju, a bigwig in the Ministry of Internal History.
But this turmoil is like a farce.
Because after Yang Ming came back, he didn't say anything, no matter how Yang Ming asked, the latter was just silent with a gloomy face, and even when the eldest princess Yang Lihua was summoned, Yang Jin excused himself and refused to see anyone.
Only Yang Chan was the only one who accompanied him in the tent.
The people from the Criminal Department originally wanted to ask about Yang Yun's experience in the mountains, but His Royal Highness the Prince didn't care about you at all, and the people in the Criminal Department had nothing to do.
After all, they can't interrogate Yang Jun like they interrogate others.
Because the qualifications are not enough.
Yang Ming had no choice but to wait for Yang Ming's mood to ease up.
"Your Highness, I went to ask about the Pei family, and Miss Pei didn't say anything, but just asked the people in the Criminal Department to find out who fascinated them and threw them in the barren forest."
Pang Ben went to the Pei family's camp according to Yang Ming's instructions, but found nothing.
It seems that something happened in the mountains, causing Yang Jun and Pei Shuying to remain silent at the same time.
Yang Ming said: "Got it, when the sixth child comes back, we'll ask about the situation again,"
In addition to Yang Jun and Pei Shuying being found, six other people were found one after another, including Ma Lao Liu.
At present, in addition to the pro-army sent by Yang Lihua and the people from the Criminal Department, the people of other major families have returned to their respective stations.
After all, in people's eyes, it is good that the two main masters are found, and the other subordinates do not matter.
A day of spring outing is worth a thousand dollars, and everyone's focus will soon return to the right track, and engaging in objects is the top priority.
At the end of the morning, Yang Lihua sent someone to spread the word, and all the attendants, including Ma Lao Liu, were all detained by Yang Lihua and interrogated by the Criminal Department.
I can't find out who did it, and I won't release people over there.
As for Yang Jun's security, it has also been greatly strengthened, and there are three layers outside the camp and three layers outside, and the water surrounded by the Praetorian Guards cannot be leaked.
Yang Ming must find out about this matter, because it is a matter of his own safety.
After all, Yang Yun, like him, is Yang Guang's son, and if the other party can have an accident, he may also have an accident.
This time, he learned to be obedient, and took the initiative to take Mama Lou to the Pei family camp.
......
The Pei clan in Hedong originated in the Han Dynasty and continues to this day, and is still the top family in the north.
There are nearly 100 officials in the clan, and many of them occupy key positions in the court.
The current head of the family, Pei Ju, the official residence in the history of the province, will also serve as Li Yuan's prime minister in history, and is the key figure of the Pei family in Hedong to shine in the Tang Dynasty, playing an important role in connecting the previous and the next.
The Pei family produced seventeen prime ministers in the Tang Dynasty.
Today's Pei family camp is heavily guarded, and many of them are the Pei family's private troops at a glance, and the armor and weapons on their bodies are very sophisticated, not much worse than the Praetorian Guard.
In the Great Sui, it is normal for a big family like this to have a private army.
Yang Jian couldn't control it, after all, this was a tradition that had been carried over from the Jin Dynasty hundreds of years ago, and he didn't have the ability to break this tradition yet.
According to etiquette, Yang Ming first sent someone to pass the word, and until Pei Shuying's consent was obtained, the guards of Pei's Mansion would let you in.
Otherwise, don't look at you as the son of the world, and don't bird you.
Fortunately, in this face, Pei Shuying still has to give it.
After all, the ancestral tablet of the old Pei family is offered in the hometown of Hedong County.
Because it was a woman's private boudoir, the subordinates were not allowed to enter, and only Yang Ming entered the tent alone out of politeness.
There were only two people in the tent.
Among them, Pei Shuying was wrapped in a blanket with a haggard face, leaning on the soft couch by the campfire, and another young man with a fur hat was holding a bowl of hot soup and feeding Pei Shuying spoonful by spoonful.
Seeing Yang Ming come in, both of them were expressionless.
Pei Shuying nodded at Yang Ming anyway, but Pei Xuanji didn't even look at Yang Ming.
Because he is a princeling.
"Is Miss Pei feeling better? This king is in a hurry, please forgive me if you disturb me,"
Yang Ming behaved politely, and there was no county king at all.
"Much better, Your Highness, please sit down......"
Pei Shuying weakly stretched out her hand and pointed to the soft couch on the side, "If Your Highness just comes to sit, the little girl is welcome, if you ask about anything else, you don't have to." ”
Get! It seems that this trip is also empty,
Everyone talked about this, and Yang Ming was embarrassed to say that he was here to ask, so he had no choice but to sit down and said with a smile:
"What happened, since the eldest princess and the people from the Criminal Department came to investigate, I won't explore much, but I just saw that Miss Pei was as haggard as my second brother, and I had some doubts in my heart."
"Humph!"
At this time, Pei Xuanji suddenly threw the soup bowl in his hand on the ground, and then shouted outside the tent:
"Slave maid with no eyesight, how can my sister drink the medicinal soup if it is so hot? You deserve to die outside. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, two slaves and maidservants hurried in and cleaned up the broken bowls on the ground.
Yang Ming was sitting precariously with an expressionless face.
Is the medicinal soup hot? Burn it? As soon as I came in, I should be able to drink 90 degrees of water.
Is this kid angry at himself?
Yang Ming knew that in this disappearance, only Pei Shuying's four personal maids died, and the others had some martial arts knowledge and were not afraid of the cold and hunger in the mountains.
That's not right....... It's not Lao Tzu who kidnapped your sister, what are you angry with me?
Yang Ming felt that something was wrong.
Because Pei Shuying did not apologize at all because of her brother's rude behavior, but had a send-off expression on her face.
The second child has offended others? So much so that the two siblings piggybacking on themselves have become hostile to themselves?
So Yang Ming had an idea and said with a smile: "I came here to apologize to Miss Pei for my second brother." ”
This sentence is more round, if Yang Jun didn't do anything to offend others, he could probably say that he apologized because Yang Jun took poor care of Pei Shuying in the mountains.
Sure enough, as soon as Yang Ming's words came out, the expressions on the faces of the Pei family sisters and brothers changed instantly.
Pei Shuying closed her eyes, lowered her head and made no sound, looking pained.
And Pei Xuanji looked at Yang Ming for the first time, and said viciously with his eyes:
"You don't have to! In the future, our Pei family and the well water of the Jin Wangfu will not violate the river water, and we will go our own way, that is, my sister is kind-hearted, and she will not let me ...... this matter."
"Don't say it......" Pei Shuying stopped her younger brother and stopped the other party from continuing.
Pei Xuanji looked angry and slammed his fist on the tea table.
"Please tell His Royal Highness King Yuzhang that he has nothing to apologize for, and the little girl only asks to never see him again in this life."
"Your Highness, please."
After saying this, Pei Shuying stopped talking.
Of course, Yang Ming will not rely on it, after all, he has already set up a very useful piece of information.
The second Yang Xuan must have done something to make the Pei family sisters and brothers so resentful.
And Pei Shuying seems to be hiding it for Yang Xuan.
It's a pity....... She's a good girl.......
In fact, from the very beginning, Yang Ming had an impression of Pei Shuying.
Because Pei Shuying is a well-known chaste woman in history.
Pei Shuying in history will marry a collateral son of the Li family in Longxi, named Li Dewu.
Later, during the period of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, Li Dewu was implicated by the elders of the clan and sent to the frontier, Pei Ju was afraid that his daughter would be punished, so he asked Yang Guang to ask his daughter to divorce Li Dewu.
Yang Guang was accurate.
But Pei Shuying didn't admit it, she refused her father's family affair in Hedong Liu's family on the grounds of "not practicing the second court, women's common sense", and waited until more than ten years later when the Tang Dynasty was founded, Li Dewu was amnesty and returned to his hometown, and the husband and wife were finally reunited.
Originally, Yang Ming felt that the Great Sui in this life was somewhat different from history, and maybe the second Yang Xuan might really come together with Pei Shuying.
But at present, it seems that there is no drama.......
