Strange Records of Xijing

"The young master is back, the young master is back." The servant of the Pei residence trotted all the way, reporting the news of Pei Jingxing's return to Fu Bo, the butler of the Pei residence.

"Really?" Uncle Fu was surprised and delighted, clasped his hands together, and said Amitabha, "It can be regarded as coming back! Quick, hurry up and prepare hot water. The young master has been exhausted all the way, let the young master take a hot bath first. And , tell the kitchen to make more of the young master's favorite food."

"Yes." The young man responded, and then went out, then stopped suddenly, patted himself on the head, turned around and went to Uncle Fu again, and asked, "Then Daoist Su also came with the young master, Do you want to prepare hot water and hot dishes for Daoist Su?"

Forbo's face twitched, and he finally nodded and said, "Naturally."

Not to mention that the two of them had showered, when they came out after drying their hair, there was already a table of wine and food outside, and Uncle Fu was standing beside him with a smile.

The two sat down, Uncle Fu served them two dishes: "Master, Daoist Su, try this dish."

The two took a sip, and the meat in their mouths was delicate and smooth, not like what they usually eat.

"What kind of meat is this?" Pei Jingxing asked Uncle Fu while holding two chopsticks for Su Yan.

Ever since the two communicated with each other, Pei Jingxing believed that he was four years older than Su Yanxu, and he felt a sense of responsibility in his heart, not only as a lover, but also as an elder brother.Since the two of them were found by Zhang Feiran, they have never experienced any danger. Pei Jingxing's concern for Su Yan is only reflected in daily trivial matters such as picking up vegetables and wiping his face. My master laughed at me in private as an old lady.

Of course, Pei Jingxing was quite careful outside, after all Su Yan was young, he didn't want Su Yan to hear some gossip.It's just that Pei Manor is Pei Jingxing's home, and Uncle Fu is not an outsider, so Pei Jingxing no longer has such scruples.

But how did Pei Jingxing know that when Uncle Fu saw his behavior, he wanted to beat his chest and vent his frustration——

Master, madam, I am useless, the future young master is afraid to fly.

At this time, Su Yan's eyes had regained his sight. He picked up the piece of meat, examined it carefully, and then sniffed it, and said to Uncle Fu, "Uncle Fu, is this beef?"

"Oh, Daoist Su, you must keep your voice down." Uncle Fu lowered his voice, "I secretly entrusted someone to buy this at a high price, just to clean up the young master and Daoist Su."

Farm cattle are the lifeblood of farmers. The rulers of all dynasties have paid great attention to protecting farm cattle. They have enacted laws strictly prohibiting anyone from slaughtering farm cattle at will. Eating beef is even more illegal.But, people have a bad habit, that is, the more they are not allowed to do something, the more they must do it.Ordinary people occasionally use the excuse of cattle dying of illness or old age to slaughter a cow to try something new, not to mention those dignitaries.To put it bluntly, as long as this person doesn't provoke public anger, everyone will turn a blind eye and let it pass.

Su Yan hasn't eaten beef for a long time. When he was in the mountains, there were never so many rules. He could eat whatever he wanted.Sometimes Hu Nu and the others go out, and when they come back, they will bring Su Yan some food that is not available in the mountains as snacks.

In Pei Jingxing's eyes, Su Yan is good at everything.For example, this time, he praised: "Xiao Su is really smart, she even knows it's beef."

Su Yan blushed slightly, smiled at Pei Jingxing, buried her head in her meal, and stopped talking.

The smile on Pei Jingxing's face grew wider, and he scooped up another bowl of soup for Su Yan: "This fish soup is also your favorite, drink more."

Uncle Fu at the side couldn't hold back, and rolled his eyes in his heart.

After the two of them had dinner, Uncle Fu waited on the person to wash his mouth and hands, and asked with a smile: "Young Master, when you come back this time, can Your Majesty have a few days off for Young Master Xu?"

Pei Jingxing hesitated for a while before replying: "I will be able to rest every day from now on."

Uncle Fu was taken aback, and it took him a long time to react, his face suddenly changed color: "This... this... what's going on here?"

Pei Jingxing did not have such a big reaction, but said indifferently: "This time I am not doing well, Your Majesty dismissed me from my post, and asked me to reflect at home more."

He didn't order him to close the door and think about his mistakes.

"What...how do you say this?" Uncle Fu was anxious, "Did the young master offend His Majesty?"

"No," Pei Jingxing shook his head and said, "Uncle Fu, you don't need to ask about this matter anymore. This time, I was in the wrong. I failed to complete the task assigned by His Majesty, and Gao Zekai and Zhao Shimin died. If Your Majesty does not punish Me, the Gao family, the Zhao family, and the national teacher, they will not let me go."

"Even if His Majesty punishes you, they won't let you go easily!" Fu Bo stomped his foot and said bitterly.

Then Zhao Shimin was the only seedling of the Zhao family, so how could the Zhao family let them go so easily if they died outside like this?Even if Zhao Yuanrui loses his official position now, his connections over the years are far behind Pei Jingxing.There is also Zhao Yuanrui's wife, who was born in a wealthy family, and now that her only son is dead, she might have lost her heart after eating Pei Jingxing.

Thinking about the national teacher, the Gao family, Uncle Fu almost didn't dare to think about it anymore.

"Uncle Fu, don't worry," Pei Jingxing saw that the expression on Uncle Fu's face changed again and again, and he knew that the old man had started to think wildly again, so he comforted me, "Although your majesty dismissed my official position, he gave me a As for the golden mace, the Gao family and the Zhao family dare not act rashly."

"What... what is the meaning of this?" Uncle Fu became more and more confused, "It's nothing more than an official, but you are given a golden mace. What is your majesty trying to do?"

"I don't know about that," Pei Jingxing said, "Anyway, at least for a month or two, the Gao family of the Zhao family would not dare to touch me."

"That's good, that's good," Uncle Fu muttered a few words, and suddenly said seriously, "Young master, don't worry, our Pei family is not at the mercy of others. Master sacrificed his life for the country, how can His Majesty still watch the loyal ministers die? Have you been framed?"

Pei Jingxing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What Uncle Fu said is true."

Pei Jingxing didn't seem to care about it now, but in fact, earlier today, in the Hanyuan Hall, he was already prepared for a dead end.

After Pei Jingxing woke up from the Western Region barracks, he only remembered that someone sneaked up from behind him before he fell into a coma, knocked him unconscious, and snatched away the ghost seal.As for who the sneak attackers were, how many there were, and where they went after snatching the ghost seal, Pei Jingxing didn't even know.He and Su Yan tried to find the ghost city again, and after waiting for ten days in the desert, they found that the ghost city had completely disappeared.

Lost the ghost seal, the prince who was seriously ill far away in Xijing could only wait to die, and the death of Gao Zekai and Zhao Shimin pushed Pei Jingxing to the opposite of the upper class in Xijing - even if Gao Zekai was killed by Zhao Shimin, Xijingzhong would not Some people believe his words.

There is still a big family in the Pei family in Xijing, although they are not close relatives, but they have been together for nearly 20 years, it is impossible for Pei Jingxing to easily let Fu Bo and others go, and flee to the end of the world with Su Yan.

He discussed with Zhang Feiran many times and decided to return to Beijing to plead guilty. As for Su Yan, Pei Jingxing's original plan was to ask Zhang Feiran to take care of him for a while, and then let Su Yan return to the Central Plains after the limelight passed.

Pei Jingxing helped Su Yan make a plan, but the latter naturally refused and insisted on going back to Beijing with Pei Jingxing, the two quarreled many times over this, and Zhang Feiran had no choice but to come forward to make peace.

"Isn't Su Yan a delicate and weak woman, or do you really think of yourself as his mother?" What Pei Jingxing didn't expect was that Zhang Feiran actually stood by Su Yan's side and scolded him, "Since the two If you love each other, you should respect each other. You plan for Su Yan like this, have you considered his feelings? If you can afford it, Su Yan can also bear it."

Pei Jingxing was quite speechless: "Master, you also agreed to this matter."

"If I know my mistakes, I can correct them, can't I?" Facing Pei Jingxing's "accusation", Zhang Feiran didn't feel any guilt of "betrayal", "Su Daochang, do you think I'm right?"

"Yes," Su Yan nodded, "I'm not afraid."

Those three simple words made Pei Jingxing's restless heart suddenly calm down - yes, the two of them have experienced life and death together, so what is there to be entangled with?

In fact, it was not Pei Jingxing's fault, it was precisely because he experienced life and death that he understood the preciousness of life even more.The situation was critical at that time, Pei Jingxing had the heart to live and die with Su Yan, now that he had hope of life, how could he have the heart to let Su Yan face the threat of death again?

In short, the three finally agreed that Pei Jingxing and Su Yan would return to the capital together, and at the same time Zhang Feiran sent a letter to Xu Jingzong in Xijing, asking him to go around secretly for Pei Jingxing and Su Yan.

Pei Jingxing never expected that when they returned to Xijing, the crown prince had already recovered, but his body was still a little weak and needed rest.And beside the national teacher who had always been trusted by the emperor, stood another strange face for the first time.This person wears a Taoist temple on his head, holds a dust whisk in his hand, and looks like an outsider.According to people, this is an expert who cured the prince's strange disease, and now he is quite valued by the emperor.

It is no wonder that the national teacher's face has been calm for the past two days, and the news of Gao Zekai's death in the Hanyuan Hall was only surprised for a while.

However, Pei Jingxing didn't intend to tell Fu Boming about these things, as old people tend to think wildly when they are old.

"What are you going to do next?" Su Yan asked Pei Jingxing.

The two of them were walking in the small garden behind Pei Jingxing's yard. Pei Jingxing couldn't help holding Su Yan's hand, and replied, "It's hard to come back, let's rest for a while, how about you?"

"Me?" Su Yan had already prepared for the worst when he came back with Pei Jingxing.Unexpectedly, the emperor would take it lightly and never mention him as a character. Now Su Yan was also confused.

Pei Jingxing fell in love with Su Yan's little confused look, anyway, there was no one around, so he simply kissed Su Yan on the forehead, and asked him with a smile: "Let's not talk about anything else, do you want to continue living in Taixuan Temple?" in?"

Su Yan raised his head, met Pei Jingxing's eyes that were almost drowning, and felt the blood rushing up all over his body, burning his whole face and asked, "I can't stay in Taixuan Temple, where do I live?"

"Stupid!" Pei Jingxing raised his hand and flicked Su Yan's forehead, "Of course he moved to my house."

"Ah? This...isn't that good..." Su Yan hesitated.

"Why?" Pei Jingxing was puzzled, "You don't like me anymore?"

"No, why don't you like it." Su Yan quickly shook his head, "It's just... just... I just think it's not very good..."

Pei Jingxing thought of a possibility: "Are you afraid that Uncle Fu and the others will find out?"

"Of course not." If he was afraid of being found out, he would never have been with Pei Jingxing from the beginning.

Pei Jingxing asked again: "Why is that? Afraid that I will treat you badly?"

Su Yan still shook his head: "No."

Pei Jingxing was at a loss, so he could only ask: "Why is that?"

"Because... because..." Su Yan hesitated for a while, but in the end he couldn't match Pei Jingxing's gaze, and told the truth, "Hu Nu said that even if she has a sweetheart, she can't live together soon, and she will suffer. "

Seeing Su Yan's blushing face, Pei Jingxing finally couldn't help laughing loudly.
