At the gate of the Li Mansion, the old man watched Gong Weisi escort Li Yuan, Li He, and the twelve Dantian Realm worshippers away, and his face was gloomy and about to drip water.

Until Zhou Qing, who was at the back, disappeared in front of him, the old man swept away his mournful expression, regained his calm, turned around and walked into the Li Mansion, and instructed several stewards waiting there: "The second son is in trouble, the old man must rush to Chang'an immediately and find ways to rescue him." ”

"After the old man left, the door of the Li Mansion was closed, and no outsiders were entertained, and the violators of the family law were served, understand?"

Several stewards hurriedly responded: "Obey the orders of the elders of the three clans." ”

The old man nodded slightly: "Go and bring the old man's cloud horse." ”

A moment later, the old man rode a good horse that could travel 800 miles a day, and headed towards Chang'an at great speed.

......

Assassin's House.

Pei Zheng watched Gong Weisi escort a group of people from the Li Mansion passing in front of him, although he was still very dissatisfied with Zhou Qing's use of him, he recognized his efficiency.

In addition to Li Yuan and Li He, many other people from the Li Mansion were also arrested, which shows that they had premeditated.

According to this posture, if the Li family does not have other backers, it is estimated that they will have to suffer a lot of losses this time.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Pei Zheng, what he has to worry about is himself.

As a member of the Li family who made false testimony and poisoned the servants of the Ministry of Rites and made the Li family pay a heavy price for it, can Li Jiayan not retaliate?

How do you say that, can't you deal with the big boss behind the scenes, Emperor Jian'an, can't deal with the dog-legged Gong Weisi with sharp teeth and claws, and can't you clean up a small team of him?

Although the dust has not yet settled on this case, people must have near-term worries without long-term concerns, Pei Zheng out of self-preservation, there are only two ways to go, either find a way to get rid of responsibility and let the Li family let him go, or find a thick and big thigh to hold, so that the Li family is jealous and does not dare to do it.

However, with Pei Zheng's understanding of the urine nature of the family, as long as the interests are damaged, no matter how innocent and forced the people involved are, it is impossible to let the other party go with kindness.

So the second path is a little more reliable.

From Pei Zheng's point of view, the thighs that can be hugged are extremely limited.

Zhao Gu Lin Xing and his ilk have the lowest difficulty in hugging their thighs, but their strength is average, and they obviously can't resist the revenge of a behemoth like the Li family.

Gong Weisi can, as an agency specializing in doing things for Emperor Jian'an, it is naturally not a problem to block the Li family, but Pei Zheng asked himself that it was unremarkable, just by providing a little evidence to deal with the Li family, it would be difficult to say a word to the other party after this matter, let alone obtain the protection of the other party.

There are two parties that are relatively reliable, the Yanwu Academy and the Pei family.

The status of the Yanwu Academy in Daxia is transcendent, and the connections are both extensive and deep, if it can be appreciated by the dean or vice president, even a respected gentleman, it is not a big problem to save his life.

Needless to say, if Pei Zheng can recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, as long as the Li family does not go crazy, they will never dare to offend the Pei family who are in the middle of the day when they are being targeted by the imperial court.

Almost without much thought, Pei Zheng ruled out the option of recognizing his ancestors and returning to his ancestors in his heart.

It's not because he is thin-skinned and unwilling to bow to the Pei family, nor because of the obsession left by his predecessor, he wants to return to the Pei family in a beautiful way, so that the person who forced his grandfather to leave the Pei family regrets it.

Instead, Pei Zheng felt that it would be more difficult to recognize his ancestors and return to the Pei family than to get on the line with Gong Weisi.

Because in Pei Zheng's memory, his family was driven out by the contemporary head of the Pei family because of the failure to compete for the position of the head of the family.

How could the Pei family accept him again? Who would dare to accept him?

If you want not to die in the revenge of the Li family and live well in this world, Pei Zheng only has the road of acting martial arts academy to go.

The Academy of Performing Arts will generally choose an auspicious day in February to accept new students, and when new students are enrolled, there will be an assessment, and the dean or vice president will attend the assessment site.

The results of the assessment do not affect whether the new students can be admitted or not, but only related to which gentleman the new students will study with in the future.

In other words, students who have a letter of recommendation or go through other paths will not have a problem successfully enrolling.

However, the gentlemen of the Yanwu Academy will select their disciples according to the performance of the new students in the assessment.

It is somewhat similar to the relationship between Pei Zheng's master's supervisor and graduate students in his previous life.

Those who behave well will even be fought over by gentlemen.

If you perform poorly, sorry, you may not have a dedicated teacher for you, and in the next three years, in addition to self-study, you can only take some public classes with no threshold.

Similarly, the students of the Martial Arts Academy, with or without Mr., are treated differently after graduation.

With the recommendation of Mr. and the help of the previous senior brothers, whether it is stepping into officialdom or running other industries, it will be much smoother.

If you don't have it, you can only accept your fate.

Therefore, forty or fifty days later, if Pei Zheng's performance is excellent, he can not only avoid the revenge of the Li family, but also greatly enhance his future achievements.

And what he has to do now is to rush to Chang'an as soon as possible to prepare for the assessment in February next year, and second, to find ways to delay the progress of the case of Wen Feng's death.

Opportunities are often reserved for those who are prepared, and this bowl of chicken soup Pei Zheng has been drinking for twenty or thirty years, and he can't abandon it just because he came to this world.

However, if this case ends too quickly, the Li family's retaliation will follow, not to mention that Pei Zheng will lose time to prepare, and even survive to the assessment is a problem.

The case will not end for a day, and Gong Weisi, out of the protection of witnesses, will not easily let Pei Zheng die under the Li family's plot.

It's not that Pei Zheng's role is pivotal, and Gong Weisi must protect him, but Gong Weisi can't afford to lose this person.

Let's ask if Gong Weisi can't even keep witnesses, if this matter gets out, Gong Weisi can't be dignified and swept away?

If it reaches the ears of Emperor Jian'an, the consequences will be even more serious, as we all know, dogs that have lost their use value are likely to be stewed and eaten for meat.

Thinking of this, Pei Zheng's gaze seemed to glance at the place where Li Yuan was being held.

Zhou Qing's city government is too deep, and the success rate of delaying the progress from him is too low, and it is easy to lose himself.

If you do something too risky, you can't do it casually.

In comparison, Li Yuan is much simpler as a breakthrough.

This son of a family, although he is a little smart, has too little social experience, and he has not been beaten by a cruel society, so it is much easier to deceive.

What's more troublesome is that Pei Zheng has a little difficulty hooking up with Li Yuan under Zhou Qing's nose.

Just as Pei Zheng was thinking about what method to take, Qiu Baihu came over and said loudly: "On the orders of Lord Qianhu, after lunch, we will leave for Chang'an immediately." ”

"Lord Qianhu heard from General Lin that you are a scout, good at cooking and taking care of war horses, and you are responsible for taking care of the food and clothing of many suspects of the Li family on the way back, as well as the horses you ride. ”

"Your Excellency said, you are a smart person, and you should know how to choose some things. ”

It's really sleepy, and when someone comes, someone sends a pillow.

Pei Zheng endured the joy in his heart, and replied with a calm face: "If you obey your orders, you will definitely not disappoint your adults." ”
