Chapter 120 Who do you think you are? You also have the Pei family
Chi Ying's usually paralyzed face seemed to have cracks, and some emotion leaked out.
"Mrs. Xu often comes here to drink tea." Pingyang Hou made a gesture with his fingers together, "She usually skips concubine status, but here, she spent seven hundred taels on a young man."
Chi Ying's face turned green. Mrs. Xu did like to drink tea, but that was at a serious teahouse opposite Zuiyun Tower.
"That teahouse belongs to me too."
"I know it belongs to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion." Chi Ying closed his eyes, "I just didn't expect that Pingyang Marquis would use the teahouse to do this kind of business."
"What kind of business? Those handsome young men just say a few nice words and sing some operas on stage to get rewards." Yu Xiuyun raised a smile on his lips, "But there are some greedy young men who are actively seeking death, and I can't stop them."
Chi Ying remained silent, thinking that you didn't want to stop him. A teahouse like this was indeed an excellent place to gather information. Chats between officials and family members would inevitably involve the careers of his father, brother, and husband's family. It is estimated that the waiter had trapped a lot of information.
Yu Xiuyun said calmly: "Go back and tell the lord that I will have Xu Youzhen impeached tomorrow. When will he be demoted and divorced?"
"My lord did not say anything to General Xu."
"The box he gave you has the mark of Prince Wei's Palace on it. Isn't it just a good idea that this will happen?"
Chi Ying said expressionlessly: "General Xu has maintained strict military discipline over the years. He promotes generals based on military merit, which is extremely fair."
He couldn't think of any reason why Xu Youzhen deserved to be impeached except for personal matters.
Yu Xiuyun paused, remembering that the young man in front of him was just one of the dead soldiers and could not possibly know all the information. He lowered his eyes and said, "Just tell my words truthfully."
Xu Youzhen's promotion is of course fair, because he only accepts beauties and does not do anything, and those who are put aside will only suffer the consequences of being dumb.
King Wei mentioned it when he had a chat with him last time. At that time, his attitude was more like turning a blind eye.
There are so many romantic places in Chang'an, but the King of Wei wanted Chi Ying to come to Zuiyun Tower, not only to signal him to write a letter of impeachment, but also to demote Xu Youzhen's official position, and then promote his concubine Xu Xian, which would not only give the old minister face but also beat him.
I can once again declare to the military commander that as long as he has achieved military exploits like Xu Xian, his background does not matter. After all, Xu Youzhen's legitimate son is only a school captain.
The eight beauties disgusted Mrs. Xu and told the officials that Xu Youzhen was demoted because of his own fault, and the King of Wei wanted to treat him favorably from beginning to end.
Yu Xiuyun's eyelids twitched when he thought of Xu Xian. This man's military exploits were almost established when he attacked Jingzhou. To be fair, he could kill the enemy when he mounted his horse, and he could pacify the people when he dismounted.
The King of Wei might make a fuss out of this matter, and after he ascends the throne next year, he would bypass the rest of the Xu family and directly grant Xu Xian the title of marquis.
Yu Xiuyun thought, this was more uncomfortable for her than killing Mrs. Xu.
On the second day, Yushi Zhou had just impeached General Xu in the morning, and the reward from King Wei was delivered. Xu Youzhen breathed a sigh of relief and said to his wife: "I know that King Wei always misses the past."
Mrs. Xu's face turned green. When King Wei's subordinates sent the gift, they specifically told her that it was a reward and could not be refused. She could not sell it even if she wanted to.
Xu Youzhen glanced at the children surrounding her, frowned and said, "Where's Mingyue?"
"The Queen summoned her to the palace." Mrs. Xu felt a little strange, "It was to reminisce about old times."
The man who had not yet changed out of his official uniform immediately turned his face and said, "What did the queen call her for? Did she go to provoke King Wei again?"
His face turned livid, "How many times have I told you that King Wei has no intention of her. If you don't indulge her again and again, you will kill me sooner or later."
Mrs. Xu quickly said: "The bright moon has become much restrained."
Xu Youzhen looked her up and down and asked suspiciously, "What about you?"
"The King of Wei is already married, how dare I say more." Mrs. Xu quickly interrupted, "I remember that Marquis Boping has always been very fond of Mingyue, and it is indeed a good marriage."
Xu Youzhen waved her hands quickly and said with great impatience: "Why do you insist on marrying into the Pei family? How old is Mingyue? She still has the same temperament. It is the right way for you to find an honest and easy-to-handle husband for her."
*
When Pei Shu saw the letter sent by her eldest brother, she summoned her eldest sister-in-law to the palace for the fourth time but was refused. It was not that Yu Tingwan was unwilling to come, but that the order could not be conveyed out of the palace at all.
She waited for half a month and finally waited for Xu Youzhen to come back.
When she saw Xu Mingyue, Pei Shu was sitting in the greenhouse hall, changed into Hu clothes, held her chin up without the manners of a queen, and stared at the woman who was two years older than herself in the hall.
Xu Mingyue felt frightened when she saw Pei Shu. This was the ancestor of her ancestors. In the past, she was talking and laughing in front of Chang'an City one second, but the next second something offended her, she turned against her and went crazy. No one can control it.
What's more, these two people have a feud.
"Miss Xu, you're fine." Pei Shu stood up, but instead of going down to greet her, she suddenly picked up a bow on the table.
"How about we play a game?" She stood high in the hall, nocked an arrow, and "bet on where the arrow will end up today."
"Empress, my daughter's father is an old minister of the Pei family. There must be a reason for you to kill me."
Xu Mingyue's face turned pale. She almost killed Pei Shu when she was young, but that was a misunderstanding, and even the late king didn't say anything.
Pei Shu nodded, "Because I plan to settle old and new grudges with you."
"Miss Xu, you must remember the old grudge. In order to see my eldest brother, you tricked me into sneaking you into the Huben military camp. We were almost shot to death with one arrow."
Xu Mingyue was older than Pei Shu, and she was even better at pretending to be aggrieved and quiet, which made the late king think that Pei Shu was ignorant.
"My new revenge is that you set up my sister-in-law."
As soon as Pei Shu finished speaking, Xu Mingyue choked. She had only said those words to her maid. The last time she saw Mrs. Pingyang Hou at a banquet, she suddenly thought of the princess and complained a few words in the back corridor.
Could it be that someone heard it and reported it to the queen?
Seeing the panic on the faces of the people in the palace, Pei Shu tightened her bow string and said, "You should be glad that it is me who is talking to you today. If it were my elder brother, your life would have been lost long ago."
An arrow left the string, barely grazing Xu Mingyue's hair. The hairpin was blown away by the tip of the arrow, and her long hair fell down.
She was so frightened that her liver and gallbladder broke apart. She never thought that Pei Shu would be so bold and arrogant. "My father is the teacher of King Wei. How could he kill me? It is the Queen's own decision."
Pei Shu laughed mockingly, even now, she was still thinking about King Wei.
After reading the letter, she was really curious about how Xu Mingyue managed to hit her elder brother's pain point with every word.
He was so angry that even if it was inconvenient for him to do anything to the girl who had not left the court, he would still ask the queen to help.
Pei Shu walked up to Xu Mingyue step by step, leaned over and grabbed her hair, asked someone to bring a basin of cold water, and pressed her head directly into it.
"My eldest brother and I learned this trick. How does it feel?" Pei Shu sighed and said with emotion: "I remember that my father and brother were fighting in the war before, and you pretended to be concerned about me, saying that men and women did not sit on the same table at the age of seven. It’s not right for me to hold you in my arms.”
There was no response in the palace, only the sound of struggling.
"Why don't you say anything?" Pei Shu suddenly understood and picked up her head, "When you approached King Wei and Marquis Boping, was it okay?"
Xu Mingyue was almost frightened and kept shaking her head. She just wanted to escape. The queen was even crazier than when she was the princess before, and her actions were unreasonable.
"My eldest sister-in-law is from the Pei family. Who do you think you are? You are also a member of the Pei family?"
Pei Shu was filled with rage in her heart, maybe because Yu Tingwan's appearance always reminded her of Zhao Heng in the past, so she was extremely angry with the woman in front of her.
She couldn't kill Xu Mingyue today. After all, she was the daughter of an old minister, and she didn't say those words in front of others.
The eldest brother asked her to decide what to do, so Pei Shu made her own considerations, hoping that he would be satisfied and allow her to see Yu Tingwan.
She took the head out of the basin and pushed it in again and again. When she heard the other party yelling "A Jing" in collapse, the strength in her hand suddenly increased.
There was a muffled sound, the sound of his head hitting the bottom of the basin.
"My third brother, the blind one, actually likes you."
Pei Shu snorted coldly in her nose. When she was in Youzhou, she discovered that Xu Mingyue saw that King Wei could not remember her at all, so she simply wrote to Pei Jing every month.
Her third brother was like a donkey working hard, and the letter was like a carrot hanging in front of his eyes.
She taught Xu Mingyue a lesson today. If Marquis Boping came to avenge her, she would scold her third brother as well.
Pei Shu's voice was faint and careless, as if coming from afar.
"Marquis Boping is in Chang'an. Go and complain to him quickly. Otherwise, it will be really boring for me to be alone in the palace."
