Chapter 420: Just let him be angry
took their families to the mansion, Xiao Si'er and Hu San's generous command the people brought by Master Pei Wu to disassemble and salute them, and Cui Pu secretly rubbed and got to Mu Jiaojiao's side.
Mu Jiaojiao looked at him speechlessly: "Master Pei, are they still waiting outside?"
"yes, I said I'm going to watch people put my books, so I'll let them sit in front of me first. When this place is cleaned up, I will go to see them again, and by the way, we will go to Wei's Restaurant for dinner together. Cui Pu said with a grin.
Mu Jiaojiao shook her head. "I've never seen you treat people like this. When I first arrived, I didn't take the snake in my eyes. ”
"Cut, what kind of snake is he? If you want to say that the head snake has to be his father, it's almost the same! No matter how bad it is, his brother can do it!" Cui Pu pursed his lips disdainfully, "And that butler, who knows if it's a fourth-class or fifth-class thing in the mansion? You dare to come to me and pretend, am I really stupid? What kind of style was the big butler in the old mansion at the beginning, I don't know? As for that group of squires, it is even more ridiculous, and at this value, I can only come to cheer him on." These people want to fool me into handing them over? I haven't given an explanation to the people of Zhuhai Post House!"
Mu Jiaojiao deeply agreed with his statement.
This Pei Wu Master is indeed not authentic. just set up such a seemingly glamorous dragon gate array, and wanted to trick them into handing over Pei Jiulangjun obediently. If they really believe it, then they won't be able to raise their heads in the whole Lingnan in the future!
"If there is a father, there must be a son. Being a son is a fool, and being a father is not much better. Cui Pu couldn't help but complain again.
Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly covered his mouth. "Be careful, beware of the ears on the wall. ”
"What if you have ears? Who is afraid of whom? If they dare to sell me, I will sell them all on my feet, and then spend money to buy new ones!" Cui Pu disagreed.
He's really getting more and more arrogant. This momentum is far from being up to Master Pei.
The eldest lady watched from the sidelines, and quickly gave a thumbs up: "Daddy is so good!"
"That's it. You also have to remember the eldest lady, no matter who you face in the future, you must remember that you are the lady of the Boling Cui clan and the lord of Hanoi who was personally proclaimed by the saint. Whoever looks down on you, you don't have to please him. In the end, it's not certain who wants to please whom!" Cui Pu hurriedly began to indoctrinate his daughter again.
The eldest lady nodded hurriedly and wrote it down seriously.
Mu Jiaojiao couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly kicked him out.
Cui Pu complained. As he walked out, he said, "Hey, you're getting more and more fierce now, more and more fierce!"
If I hadn't been fierce, I didn't know how lawless you would be! Mu Jiaojiao thought angrily, and yelled at him again: "Don't hurry up and leave!"
"Isn't that just going?" Cui Pu whispered, but he moved both feet out of the door.
When she first arrived, Mu Jiaojiao naturally had to be busy cleaning up all the houses, and then getting to know the girls and mothers-in-law in the house. This was more than two or three days.
When Cui Pu arrived at the front, he was immediately pulled out by Master Pei Wu and his party. On top of the banquet, this group of people took turns pouring wine into Cui Pu, and then induced Cui Pu to loosen his mouth and release Pei Jiulangjun.
Cui Pu drank wine and ate things, and kept talking to them. But as for releasing Pei Jiu, he didn't hear it!
After a meal, he was full of wine and food, and sat crookedly in a sedan chair to go back to the mansion, but Master Pei Wu and his group were sad and sad, and their mood was extremely low.
"Fifth master, you can't go on like this! This new prefect obviously doesn't eat hard and soft, and we can't do anything about him. Someone whispered, "Otherwise, let's ask the old lady to come out!"
"If the old lady can get out of the horse, will I still ask you to help?" said Pei Wu angrily.
Everyone fell silent for a moment.
It took a long time before someone proposed: "Otherwise, let's go back first, and then think of other methods! The three stinkers have beaten Zhuge Liang, and I don't believe it, there are so many of us, and we still can't play with him, a newcomer!"
The others nodded in agreement.
Speaking of which, Cui Pu's age is really beyond their expectations. originally thought that this was already his second prefect, and now he is also the city envoy, this person should be not young. As a result, when they saw Cui Pu's face, they were all stunned. When asked again about his age at the banquet, Cui Pu was only 28 years old, not yet 30! Many of these people have sons who are about the same age as Cui Pu in their families, and they can't help but be unconvinced when they think about their son's virtue of accomplishing nothing, and then look at Cui Pu's well-founded performance of not being humble or arrogant.
Arriving in this position at a young age shows how powerful he is.
Looking at his performance against Master Pei Wu today, everyone secretly sighed in their hearts that this new prefect is not ordinary! Pei Jiulangjun has kicked an iron plate this time, and I am afraid that this matter will not be good in the future!
However, they didn't dare to say this, and now they could only persuade Master Pei Wu in vain.
Why didn't Master Pei Wu understand this truth in his heart? Although he was not smart, he was not stupid. Cui Pu's performance today is clearly that he intends to investigate the matter to the end. And if he didn't make him retreat from this brazen blow today, it would be even more difficult to make him bow his head again in the future!
Waving his hand, he said weakly: "That's it, let's stop here today! You all go back, and we will meet again another day to think of other ways." ”
Everyone said goodbye, and Master Pei Wu also rode on his horse and went to the Jingluo Envoy's Mansion slowly.
Now he didn't have the momentum to go outside the city gate to greet Cui Pu in the morning, but he just drooped his head and whipped for a while, letting the horse wander forward.
It was easy to return to the house, and he got off the horse and planned to go back to the room to sleep, but he didn't want the housekeeper to appear.
"Fifth master, the old lady called you over. ”
Master Pei Wu immediately shuddered!
"Daddy hasn't slept yet? What did he tell me to do at this time? What happened in the house?"
"The old lady has been waiting for the fifth master to come back. The big butler just said.
Fifth Master Pei suddenly trembled even harder.
The chief butler told him plainly that the old lady knew what he was doing today, and it was very likely that he even knew the outcome of the matter! Now that he called him over, did he intend to beat him or scold him?
However, no matter how scared he was, he still honestly followed the big butler to Pei Jingluo's bedroom.
The chief butler only took him to the door and pushed the door open for him: "Fifth master, please come in!"
Master Pei Wu nodded, and then stepped in tremblingly.
It's already the second watch. Pei Jingluo only lit a few candles in the room, barely illuminating the way. The dim light projected out, which made the room even more eerie and terrifying, causing Master Pei Wu to get goosebumps all over his body.
He cautiously searched in the direction of Pei Jingluo, and whispered in his mouth: "Daddy, my son is here." Daddy, where are you?"
"Finally back?"
The low old voice suddenly sounded, and he shuddered with fright, and his feet almost jumped off the ground.
Hurriedly looking over there, he struggled to squeeze out a smiling face: "Daddy, my son is back." ”
"Today, you took so many people to deal with the new prefect, what is the final outcome?" Pei Jingluo asked with his back to him.
Master Pei Wu's face turned red, and he bowed his head and said nothing.
Pei Jingluo sneered: "Defeated again, isn't it?"
“...... Be. ”
Pei Jing turned around slightly, and a pair of old but still shining eyes stared at him coldly: "I told you a long time ago, don't worry about this matter anymore." You don't listen. Now, you're embarrassed in public, are you satisfied?"
Master Pei Wu was so ashamed that he couldn't dig a hole in the ground and get into it. "Son is wrong, you are ashamed of Daddy. ”
"What you have lost is not my face, what you can lose is only your own face!" Pei Jingluo shouted.
Master Pei Wu choked again.
Pei Jing snorted coldly: "What, do you plan to let me take your words, and then turn the conversation to the new prefect to ignore our Pei family, and then instigate me to help you out?"
Master Pei Wu's head was almost hanging to his chest.
"Stupid! stupid!" Pei Jingluo scolded, "What is the character of this new prefect and what is the way of origin, you all dared to come to the door to find something before you figured it out, and now you have been tricked, it is purely your own fault! You deserve it! I won't help you carry this pot, and I have already asked the housekeeper to tell the whole clan to stay put, and don't conflict with the new prefect again." ”
Master Pei Wu suddenly saw a look.
Pei Jingluo said this, that is, to cut off his last way to ask for help, and he was determined to watch their father and son lose themselves to the end!
"Daddy, are you going to watch Jiurou being tortured to death by the new prefect, he's your own grandson!" he couldn't help but whisper.
"It's because Jiurou is my own grandson that I didn't interfere. Believe it or not, the more our Pei family intervenes in this matter, the more the consequences will suffer, and the more people will lose face!"
Master Pei Wu was stunned, Pei Jingwei shook his head, grabbed a copy of the information in hand and threw it to him. "Let's take a look at what this new prefect did in the first place!"
Master Pei Wu hurriedly picked it up and looked at it. The light in the room was not good, and he had a hard time seeing. However, after turning a page or two, his attention was attracted by the news on the paper, and he couldn't care about the light or not.
After reading all the information with a cup of tea, his face was more than pale.
"This new prefect, he actually ...... ......"
"Isn't he so bold?" Pei Jingluo answered, "That's right, he's such a person." Lawless, freewheeling, and best at making a big deal with the small. His immediate boss, as long as he disagrees with him, will eventually be pulled off by him. Even Concubine Wu Hui and Li Linfu can plant a heel in his hands, do you think I am a simple envoy of the Lingnan Five Mansions, compared with the concubine who has been favored by the saint for many years and the order of the dynasty, who is more powerful?"
Master Pei Wu's knees immediately weakened, and he knelt down with a thud.
"Daddy, it's wrong!"
"It's not too late to know it's wrong. Pei Jing said slightly.
When Master Pei Wu heard this, he felt that there seemed to be a play?" "Daddy, what do you mean by that?"
"You, use your brain more in everything, don't think about those ghost ideas all day long, I won't keep you by my side, and you don't have to envy your brother and their scenery outside every day. Pei Jingluo sighed, "You just have to think about what the new prefect has set against Jiulang." ”
"Didn't he say that Jiu Lang was a habitual offender, and he wanted to use the name of the new prefect to rent the house in the post house for profit?" He also took advantage of this to make a fuss, wanting to trick Cui Pu into returning his son. But it failed.
"In this matter, has he mentioned me, you, and the Pei family?"
"Nope. ”
"In that case, why do you bother to put your face up and hit him?"
Ahh
Pei Jing sighed slightly: "The new prefect convicted Jiulang in this way, that is, he is determined to restrain the matter only on Jiulang alone, and not implicate others. Moreover, he didn't dig out Jiulang's identity, let alone publicize it, but just told the people that he would severely punish Jiulang, and you really don't know Jiulang's identity when you think of him? If it's you, before you take office, there are already people everywhere who have ruined your reputation, aren't you angry? You don't want to cut this person with a thousand knives? He just wants to get this bad breath out of Jiulang, this is enough to give me face!"
"Ah!" Master Pei finally reacted, and suddenly his old face became even more ashamed.
Pei Jingluo shook his head and sighed again: "So for now, none of us should move, just let him get angry." When he's calm, let's go and get Jiurou back, and this matter will be easy to do. ”
Master Pei Wu nodded hurriedly. "Yes, everything is up to Daddy!"
"Okay, you go back and rest! stay in the house honestly these days, don't be angry with your group of fox friends and dogs. Pei Jing said slightly, with deep disgust in his tone.
Master Pei Wu nodded again and again, turned around and ran.
When his son left, Pei Jingluo picked up the stack of papers again, looked at it and sighed: "Cui Pu...... New Prefect ...... I'm going to meet him. ”
