Yesterday, Lord Yan suddenly informed Pei Yue and the three of them that they wanted to secretly go to Qingzhou to investigate the case, they wanted to take over the case with Lord Qin, and they had to go home to pack their bags.

The Holy Lord did not set a time for them to leave, but only said that when the three of them were ready, they could set off on their own.

But Lu Chunnian's younger brother Lu Chunzhi is currently missing, and he is afraid that if he goes one step late, his younger brother will be more dangerous. Therefore, he urged Li Wei and Pei Yue to set off as soon as possible.

The two also knew that Lu Chunnian was in a hurry, after all, human life was at stake, and no news that Lu Chun knew at the moment was the best news. After the three of them discussed, they decided to go to Qingzhou the next day.

The case in hand was transferred by Lord Li Wei Li to Lord Qin, and the case files were all prepared by Lu Chunnian and handed over to Lord Qin's subordinates.

Lu Chunnian needed to go back to Lu's house to say goodbye to his father and mother, and he didn't dare to show the slightest worry about his younger brother. I am afraid that I will reveal my stuffing in one of my words, so that the Lu family and his wife will know Lu Chunzhi's current situation. Since the saint didn't want the Lu family and his wife to know the news that Lu Chun knew, he naturally had his own plans.

As a courtier, he can't make mistakes, Lu Chunnian can only obey the holy will.

Pei Yue's side is much easier to deal with. Taifu Pei was originally a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he dealt with this royal family all day long. He will only know more news than Pei, not less than Pei.

The saint already respected Taifu Pei, and felt sorry for the Pei family because of General Pei's affairs, so when Pei Yue was selected to go to Qing to investigate the case, he asked Taifu Pei's opinion in advance.

Mrs. Pei was naturally willing to take this trip with Pei Yue. Not to mention whether he can find an opportunity to go to Youzhou, just to say that Pei Yue can be favored by the saint as soon as he enters the court, and he has this important responsibility, and Li Wei is with him, Pei Yue will definitely gain a lot in this trip.

Pei Yue knew that with the importance that the saint attached to the Pei family and respected Taifu Pei, he must have asked Taifu Pei's opinion if he could go to Qingzhou.

Pei Yue left Beijing this time, and the most inseparable was Zhao Wanning. He knew that he and Zhao Wanning had nothing to do with it at the moment, and the only link between them was the children rescued this time, except for the book "Good Success".

The road ahead of Beijing this time is unknown, and I don't know when I will return. Although Pei Yue had done a good job of psychological construction for himself, he still hoped that Zhao Wanning could wait for him to return.

Pei Yue wanted to see Zhao Wanning again.

At least tell Zhao Wanning that Uncle Zhong's case has been handed over to the upright Lord Qin. Pei Yue thought, he was just to be worthy of the official hat on his head. After all, this case was reported by Zhao Wanning with Tian Xiaocao, since he can't keep investigating it, he has to tell Zhao Wanning that he has to be responsible for the case.

Pei Yue unconsciously walked to the eldest princess's mansion.

The Eldest Princess's Mansion is still standing here in silence as in her previous life. Pei Yue couldn't be like in his previous life, without waiting for the general gift, and directly entered the eldest princess's mansion.

Pei Yue stepped forward to inform the guards of the Eldest Princess's Mansion that he wanted to see Zhao Wanning. I thought it would be like the previous time, but I was soon invited into the house by the housekeeper. But I don't want to wait to come out, it's just a little girl with a raw face.

"Back to my lordship, my lord has a high fever today, and it is really not suitable to see guests, and I hope that my lord will forgive my sins." After that, the little girl saluted Pei Yue and prepared to leave.

"Wait! Have you ever hired a female doctor? Pei Yue asked nervously, he also knew that with his relationship with Zhao Wanning now, he shouldn't be so gaffe, but he couldn't control it.

Fortunately, the girl was not suspicious, and replied respectfully: "Lord Hui, I have invited a female doctor." ”

"That's good." Pei Yue quickly adjusted his state, pretending to be a beautiful and beautiful person, trying to stay calm and polite: "Thank you, girl." I also asked the girl to help inform the county lord and wish the county lord a speedy recovery. ”

"Don't worry, my lord, I'll bring your words."

As soon as Pei Yue turned around, his face immediately sank. He now regrets that he was soft-hearted yesterday and agreed that Zhao Wanning would act with him.

Zhao Wanning's body was already weak. Yesterday it was cold and dewy, and it snowed heavily. Zhao Wanning went back and forth last night, and he must have been tired, so he contracted the wind chill and was bedridden with a high fever.

I don't know what Zhao Wanning's situation is now, although a female doctor has seen it, Pei Yue is still not at ease.

Zhao Wanning hates taking medicine the most. She always felt that the medicine was too bitter. In his previous life, Zhao Wanning was weak and often sick, and she resisted every time she took medicine. Every time, it was Pei Yue, half-coaxing and half-deceivingly coaxing her to drink the medicine.

Now Pei Yue is not by Zhao Wanning's side, and I don't know if the two little girls can take care of her.

Pei Yue looked back at the eldest princess's mansion again, and secretly had a plan in his heart.

Pei Fu.

When Pei Yue came back, Mrs. Pei had been waiting in the house for a long time.

"Grandpa." Pei Yue smiled and barely pulled out a smile.

Pei Taifu stepped forward, Pei Yue hurriedly supported him, and the grandparents sat hand in hand under the eaves.

A pot of warm wine was burning on the small red tile clay stove in front of the window, and white smoke was winding out of the spout, steaming a wisp of white mist.

The house was filled with the smell of wine.

Pei Yue helped Mrs. Pei sit down.

Pei Taifu looked at Pei Yue lovingly and said, "The Holy Lord arranged for you to go to Qingzhou?" ”

"Yes, Grandpa." Pei Yue nodded.

"When are you going to go?"

"Tomorrow."

"Yes, there is that kid from the Lu family. He is a man of love and righteousness. As Mrs. Pei spoke, she picked up the wine jug on the small stove.

Pei Yue hurriedly picked up the celadon wine glass on the table.

After Taifu Pei filled his wine glass, he poured himself another glass of wine.

Mrs. Pei raised his glass with a smile and said, "Our Yuanqing has grown up, this is the first time you have gone far away, and this glass of wine should be regarded as grandpa seeing you off." I wish you a smooth journey. ”

"Thank you, grandpa." Pei Yue raised his head with a wine glass and drank it all.

Then he wiped the corners of his mouth and said: "My grandson is not filial, and I have to leave the house when the New Year is approaching, leaving my grandfather alone in ......the house."

Mrs. Pei interrupted him with a smile: "You have to leave home for the sake of public affairs, and you are here to earn honor for our Pei family." Why is it unfilial? ”

Pei Yue didn't speak, he lowered his head hesitantly.

Mrs. Pei is now old, if he can, Pei Yue doesn't want to leave the capital, he wants to stay in the capital and guard his grandfather.

"I won't tell you anything, this time you went to Qingzhou, and it was my grandfather who took the initiative to mention it to the saint." Mrs. Pei said and poured Pei Yue another glass of wine.

Pei Yue looked surprised.

Mrs. Pei picked up the wine glass, this wine is a good flower carving, the entrance is spicy, it is most suitable for drinking in winter, and it can heat up the whole body after taking a sip.

"That Wu Daoquan is not a proper person. It's just that the situation in Qingzhou is really complicated now. The ministers of the DPRK and China all wanted to protect themselves, but no one was willing to go, so that Wu Daoquan picked up the leak. ”

"The second son of the Lu family was really dragged down by Wu Daoquan. Wu Daoquan seems to be conscientious, but he is a strong outsider. On weekdays, he only talks to his boss, and his ability to do things is almost non-existent. He has come to this day all thanks to his three-inch incorruptible tongue. How can such a person manage the Qingzhou floods? ”

"I'm afraid that Lu Chun's disappearance has something to do with him."

Pei Yue was shocked when he heard this. Wu Daoquan's reputation in the court is still good, he is a talent, and he can speak well, and he often takes the credit of his subordinates on his head. Therefore, in the eyes of those who are not familiar with him, Wu Daoquan is still capable.

But I don't want this Wu Daoquan to be such a hypocritical person behind his back.

"Wherever someone is perfect, especially in this court. Everyone has their own way of being an official and surviving, and you shouldn't be too surprised. ”

"However, since Wu Daoquan is such a deceitful rat, why did the Holy Lord send him to Qingzhou?" Pei Yue asked about the doubts in his heart. "Everyone knows that this Qingzhou matter is very serious, and if the Holy Lord wants to solve the trouble of Qingzhou, the people who go to Qingzhou must be really talented people......"

Pei Taifu played with the wine glass full of wine in his hand, he looked at Pei Yue, but smiled silently.

“…… Are you saying that Wu Daoquan is just a disguise? Pei Yue seems to have figured out the trick. The person who really went to Qingzhou was Lord Li Weili? ”

Mrs. Pei nodded with a smile: "Li Wei was born in Qingzhou, and he has served as a county magistrate in Qingzhou for more than ten years. During his tenure, the people of Qingzhou lived and worked in peace and contentment, and they were peaceful. He is honest and upright as an official, and he has indeed made some achievements in Qingzhou. ”

Although Li Wei always said that his ability was limited, he could not create a Qingzhou with clear rivers and rivers. But that's not his problem. The collusion between the Qingzhou Salt Works and the government is very old, and it is not something that he can eradicate alone. At that time, he was just a small county magistrate, with no power and no background. How can we afford to fight those big nets formed by collusion of interests? ”

"I sent him to Qingzhou this time, firstly, to appease the people of Qingzhou, and his name Li Wei is still somewhat usable in Qingzhou. Second, he also hopes that through his secret visit in Qingzhou, all the dry borers in Qingzhou will be uprooted. ”

Pei Yue listened and thought in his mind. Li Wei is just a Dali Temple Sicheng, a small five-grade official, and it is indeed inappropriate to send him directly to Qingzhou to serve as the minister of the Qincha. Moreover, if he swaggered to Qingzhou with the holy decree, he would definitely expose himself completely to the eyes of everyone. The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the open, and this situation is not conducive to the investigation of the case.

The saint sent Wu Daoquan to Qingzhou, probably to use Wu Daoquan as bait to attract the enemy's attention. Use the identity of Wu Daoquan's minister to hook out the enemies in the shadows, and then let Li Wei investigate in the shadows.

In this way, friend and foe are swapped with each other. The enemy is in the light, and I am in the dark, which is more conducive to investigating the case.

"Got it?" Mrs. Pei stroked his beard and said.

Pei Yue hurriedly nodded: "The Holy Lord's plan is very good. Previously, the Holy Lord sent Lord Wu to Qingzhou, and I always felt that something was wrong. Now I understand the painstaking heart of the saint. ”

"Since you know the painstaking work of the Holy One, do not let it down. Li Weita is an upright official and has outstanding ability. You will learn a lot by following him. ”

Pei Yue nodded in response, "I know, grandpa." ”

Thinking about all this, the ancestors of the Pei family sat down again and drank with confidence.

"Grandpa, I followed Master Li to Qingzhou this time, and I don't know when I will be able to return home. I'm afraid I won't be able to spend the New Year with you. Pei Yue said with some guilt.

"What are these words? Are you still worried that I, a bad old man, won't have a good New Year alone? Mrs. Pei blew his beard and glared: "This opportunity is hard to find, you must take advantage of it." Don't forget your original intention and delay big things because of trivial things. ”

"If you have the opportunity to go to Youzhou......"

Although Taifu Pei didn't say the rest of the words, Pei Yue also knew. Youzhou is the eternal pain of their Pei Mansion, but if they want to overturn the case for Pei Changzhou, they must not be able to get around Youzhou.

"Grandpa, Yuan Qing knows."

Mrs. Pei let out a long sigh, and the two of them raised their eyes to see that there was a vast snow in this mansion.

The withered peach tree in the courtyard is also covered with snowflakes, and I don't know if it will be able to sprout in the next year.
