Chapter 149 Pei Ju's dowry
After returning to the Jin Palace, Yang Zhao went back to rest first, and he was really tired enough in Yong'an Palace during this time.
He is the eldest grandson, and he almost never leaves his grandmother Dugu Garo.
And Yang Ming, just after taking a nap, went to Pei's mansion.
How is Gao Lande's matter investigated, he has to ask Pei Ju in person.
Pei Ju, who received the news, greeted him at the door and personally welcomed Yang Ming into the study, and under his instructions, his daughter Pei Shuying was always by his side.
The two sat opposite each other, Pei Shuying knelt on the side and made tea,
After glancing at the study, Yang Ming smiled:
"Pei Gong's huge collection of books is really rare."
Other people's study rooms are only two or three rooms, the larger ones are like Yang Su's mansion, and there are only five or six rooms, Pei Ju's study is like a special library, with a strong bookish atmosphere.
Pei Ju smiled: "In the old Zhou Dynasty, the subordinates had to be valued by the Supreme Minister, and they were the secretary of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they did not dare to neglect the slightest in their daily affairs.
Yang Ming said: "Pei Gongxue is involved in the history of the scriptures, and he is really a strange man."
"Okay, okay, you two better get down to business," Pei Shuying served fragrant tea to the two of them, and said with a smile, "After I came back, I asked my father, but he refused to tell me, I had to wait until His Highness personally inquired."
Pei Ju said with a smile: "Women don't discuss big things, I have reminded you many times, but unfortunately you always can't remember, presumably when you are in Jingzhou, you must have caused trouble to His Highness."
After speaking, Pei Ju looked at Yang Ming with a smile.
You have raised your daughter well enough, although Pei Shuying is straightforward, she is still sensible and polite, Yang Ming waved his hand and said:
"Getting along with Miss Pei, this king has benefited a lot, and Duke Pei has a good daughter."
Appreciated by Yang Ming, Pei Shuying was very useful in her heart, and when she sat on the side, the smile on her face never broke.
Pei Ju sighed and said, "It's a pity, I have passed the age of leaving the pavilion, but I refuse to leave home, and every time I think of this, I can't sleep at night."
This old boy, don't talk to me about this, Yang Ming changed the topic and said:
"How's the matter going? Is there a file for this person?"
"Nope!" Pei Ju shook his head categorically.
"No?" Yang Ming and Pei Shuying said in unison.
Pei Ju nodded: "It's really not, I personally checked all the documents of the secretary province about the old Qi court, including our family's study, and I didn't find anything at all, and there was no such person as Gao Lande."
Pei Shuying was disappointed, Yang Ming finally asked her for help, but her father didn't help?
"Has Grandpa checked everything and made sure there is nothing missing?" Pei Shuying said expectantly.
Pei Ju snorted: "Aren't you still at ease doing things for your father?"
"Alas......" Yang Ming sighed, if even Pei Ju can't be found, then no one in Dasui can find out.
Because when Pei Ju was young, he entered the Northern Qi Dynasty and served as the royal literature of Gao Renying, the king of Qi Gaoping, and people knew the old Gao family very well, and later he had been working as a secretary to Yang Jian, it is not an exaggeration to say that he knew everything that Gao Gong Yang Su didn't know.
Seeing this, Pei Ju said to his daughter with a smile: "When Xuanji opened the mansion, he took a few carts of books from his home, and as for whether there are any documents about the old Qi in it, I don't know, you can go over and take a look now, and if you have one, take it immediately."
Or say that Pei Shuying is a good lake, after hearing this, I saw her get up neatly and push the door in a hurry.
Pei Ju clearly wanted to take away his daughter and had a private conversation with Yang Ming, but Pei Shuying just couldn't see it.
Yang Ming suddenly felt that there was a reason why Pei Shuying's temperament was so straight, and it was really not easy to be made big by such a scheming daddy.
Pei Ju is a person who must know what books are in the study, how can he not know what books his son took away?
After Pei Shuying walked away, Yang Ming smiled and said:
"If Pei Gong has something, just say it."
Pei moment point
nodded, added tea for Yang Ming, and said, "Pei entered the office as a young man, befriended his wife Cui, and only got a daughter at the age of thirty-seven, and had a son two years later, and then two years, his wife died, and the strings have been broken until now."
Yang Ming nodded, he knew this, Pei Ju's wife was born in the Boling Cui family, and Cui Hongsheng, the eldest Yang Zhao's father-in-law, I heard that he died early, and a pair of children were also raised by Pei Ju, although there was a concubine in the family, but there was no renewal.
He has concubines and concubines, but concubines and concubines are not regarded as descendants in the strict sense, and some cannot even be buried in ancestral graves.
This phenomenon was very common before the Sui and Tang dynasties, and after the death of the Tang Dynasty, there was a slight improvement, but not much.
Pei Ju continued: "Now that Xuanji is fortunate to be able to marry the lord of Runan, Pei is half relieved, and the other half is on her daughter Ayun, she will not marry for a day, and Pei will not be at ease for a day."
It's really tiring to talk to this kind of old fox, all kinds of hints, anyway, I just don't tell you clearly,
Yang Ming said helplessly:
"Dugu Feng'er's matter, has Pei Gong heard of it?"
"Your Highness asked knowingly," Pei Ju said with a smile, "Pei has been in the Inner History Province all the year round, and the number of times he has left the palace and returned home is not much, how can he not know?"
Yang Ming asked again, "What does Pei Gong think about this matter?"
Pei Ju raised his head and muttered for a moment: "Dugu girl does not have the appearance of early death, but she is destined to die early."
"Where to start?" Yang Ming was stunned.
Pei Ju lowered his head and looked directly at Yang Ming: "The decline of the Dugu family has appeared, with the full support of the Holy Queen, it is still difficult to enter the house, among the children of the next generation, there are no available people, such a family can not carry too much blessing, the Holy Queen is sick, this woman is immediately infected with a strange disease, it can be known that the numerology is so, and it is not human to change."
What you said is mysterious enough, what kind of special numerology, isn't it just that someone is making trouble behind your back?
Yang Ming said, "Gao Lande's matter, Pei Gong really doesn't know?"
"You know, you don't know," Pei Ju said with a meaningful smile.
Okay, you Pei Xinxin, you have found out at all, Yang Ming asked, "How can you know the law?"
Pei Ju said with a smile: "Pei still has a daughter to be in the boudoir, if she gets married, she can come to Pei to investigate with peace of mind, and the matter will naturally come to light."
Forced marriage, isn't it? Is Dugu Feng'er your hand?
Yang Ming sneered, "If she can't get married, you won't be able to find out?"
"His Royal Highness has not yet become a father, so he naturally doesn't understand Pei's anxious mood," Pei Ju said in a good time: "Ah Yun has not been married for a day, and Pei is really not in the mood to probe these things."
"You're blackmailing me?" Yang Ming asked.
Pei Ju was stunned and said, "Why did Your Highness say this? Pei is just worried about his daughter's marriage, what does it have to do with His Royal Highness?"
Yang Ming said in a deep voice; "Don't forget, the matter between Pei Xuanji and the eldest sister was facilitated by me, and you already owe me a favor."
"Pei Mou will never dare to forget this situation," Pei Ju said with a solemn face: "Your Highness, but there is an assignment, Pei Ju will do his best."
Yang Ming got up and said angrily: "Don't play false, let you check Gao Lande, it's all false and wronged with me, you can't believe it."
Pei Ju also got up and said, "The matter of Gao Lande is very important, if you are not careful, Pei is afraid that he will be killed, how can he not be careful?"
Yang Ming was stunned: "You really found out?"
Pei Ju shook his head and said, "I haven't checked it clearly, and I don't dare to check it again, but if His Royal Highness is willing to marry Ah Yun as the concubine, then the secret on Gao Yue's body, Pei Mou will also find out for His Royal Highness at the risk of death, and it will be regarded as Ah Yun's dowry."
"Your dowry is too worthless," Yang Ming said coldly, this old Wang Ba actually knew about Gao Yue?
Now it's okay, in addition to Yang Liang and Yang Su, there is one more person who knows.
Pei Ju shook his head and said, "If it weren't for Ah Yun's already believable Highness, Pei would never be a strong man, I only have this one daughter, and if I don't plan for it, I will be a father in vain."
"Dugu Feng'er's matter, did you do it?" Yang Ming asked sharply.
Pei Ju shook his head: "It's not my turn to do it at all, Pei Mou."
I wouldn't use this kind of inferior means to deal with a weak girl."
"And you know who it is?" Yang Ming asked.
"I don't know!" Pei Ju was about to speak, when there was a sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and Pei Shuying came back.
I saw her push open the door of the house in a hurry, and saw her father and Yang Ming standing opposite each other, as if they were facing each other, and suddenly said:
"What's wrong with you two?"
"Nothing ......"
"Your father wants you to marry me,"
The two of them did not agree on their answers, but they stunned Pei Shuying, and after a while, Pei Shuying bowed her head shyly, at a loss.
Pei Ju sighed helplessly, this Yang Ming is too straight, it's just that, things always have to be clarified.
Yang Ming sneered, "But your father, gave me conditions."
Pei Shuying frowned suddenly, glaring at her father, her expression as if she was interrogating.
The woman is not staying, she is not married yet, and her elbow is already turned out, Yang Ming, this kid is too bad, deliberately creating a conflict between my father and daughter?
Pei Ju didn't play false anymore, and said bluntly: "There are indeed conditions, but ......."
"Say no more!" Pei Shuying saw that Yang Ming was secretly giving her a look, and immediately understood, and said:
"Your Highness, please go back first."
Yang Ming nodded, okay, it's time for Pei Ju to have a headache next, let's see how he faces his daughter's torture.
He can see that no matter how cunning Pei Ju is, he also has weaknesses, and his weakness is his daughter.
So when Yang Ming was leaving, he also specially instructed Pei Shuying:
"Be careful that your daddy lake gets you."
I'm Nima...... Pei Ju was stunned, this little bastard is over, right? Don't you see my father and daughter turn against each other?
"Your Highness, don't worry, he will make me a lake today, and I will make him a lake in the future," Pei Shuying said righteously.
Yang Ming was relieved and left in style.
Pei Shuying looked at her father with a frosty face, and said coldly:
"Sit down, let's talk about it, how can you force marriage like this?"
Pei Ju sat down helplessly: "You stupid boy, Yang Ming returned to Beijing this time, the position of the concubine must be decided, if your father doesn't plan for you early, it will be snatched away by others."
"Concubine?" Pei Shuying was stunned and said, "Dugu Feng'er has an accident?"
Anyway, she is also Pei Ju's daughter, and she is transparent at all.
Pei Ju nodded and said, "Half crazy and half stupid, the position of the princess has nothing to do with her, now it's up to you to see who gets it first."
Pei Shuying was stunned, and after being stunned for a long time, she suddenly came to her father and sat down, and said eagerly:
"What are we going to do?"
That's right...... Pei Ju Lao Huai was relieved: "As long as you are willing to listen to me, the position of princess will not run."
Pei Shuying nodded nonchalantly.
Yang Ming miscalculated, Pei Shuying was not her father's opponent after all, and she was still ...... by the lake.
