Don't run away from the second man in Quick Travel
Chapter 8 Lord Shen’s General Husband 8
At the door of Yunxi Restaurant opened by Pei Ning, Shen Huaiyan held a gong and drum stick in his hand, and four big men playing drums stood behind him.
The sleeves of Shen Huaiyan's official robe were rolled up to his elbows, and the hem of his clothes was wrinkled due to the tugging with his colleagues just now. A few strands of his hair hung down to his temples, and he looked almost ungentlemanly.
He waved his hand, indicating that a few people behind him could play, and the gongs and drums in his hand also started beating.
Playing drums at the door of a restaurant has already attracted countless people on the street to watch. The noisy and chaotic drumming has even attracted other business owners and clerks nearby to come out to watch the fun. Even the prostitutes in the brothel who are usually most afraid of being seen stood curiously. Watch on the second floor.
Pei Ning's face was dark and green, and he had an unspeakable guilty conscience. His almond-shaped eyes were red, and he was biting his red lips, looking pitiful. "Master Shen, what are you doing?"
"Scold you." Shen Huaiyan's expression was calm, his voice was neither high nor low, and he looked like he was scolding you in a provocative manner, which caused bursts of laughter from the theatergoers around him.
Pei Ning's eyes were red, and he lowered his eyes and choked with sobs: "Master Shen, I have never had any disputes with you. Why are you like this? Did my elder brother say something?"
Seeing that he dared to pour dirty water on Pei Xishan, Shen Huaiyan lit a fire in his heart. Pei Xishan was an open-minded person and disdained such people to care about him, but he couldn't do it.
"Hmph!" Shen Huaiyan banged the gong in Pei Ning's face and said coldly: "No rush, let's talk about it slowly."
Shen Huaiyan looked at him coldly and asked, "Pei Ning, is it your brother Pei Xishan who was married to the fingertips of the Pei family in Luo Mingcheng, the new champion, or not?"
Everyone in the capital knew about this, so Pei Ning couldn't lie, so he had to say "yes."
"General Pei has guarded Xizhou for many years, but you unconscionably stole the marriage that should have belonged to your brother, right?"
Under the eyes of everyone, Pei Ning's face turned green and white. He had indeed stolen Luo Ming City, because he knew that in the future Luo Ming City would be almost prosperous, and the official society would become bigger and bigger. He deliberately approached Luo Ming City when he was at the Pei family. Mingcheng.
But it can't be entirely blamed on him. He couldn't even slap him. After the incident, he squeezed out two tears and complained to the clan elders. In addition, Pei Xishan didn't care much, and Pei Min's preference. , this matter just passed.
Pei Ning was aggrieved and in tears, murmured: "Brother and Mingcheng have never met each other. Mingcheng and I just like each other. Although we have restrained each other, we really can't let go."
There were many people who were moved by the crowd. A scholar holding a folding fan sighed: "I don't think Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai could not stay together because of their parents' orders. It would be a pity to miss them."
Others thought it made sense when they heard it.
Shen Huaiyan ran out of patience and said coldly: "I just ask you if this marriage was stolen by you. You only need to answer yes or no."
Pei Ning could only clench her fingertips and said, "Yes."
Shen Huaiyan asked clearly and logically: "I heard that when you two got married, Mrs. Luo was very prosperous and had a dowry of nearly fifteen thousand dollars. But Pei's family history was only a small sixth-grade official. How could he afford such a large dowry? If If I am not mistaken, among them, the mahogany carved cloud pattern inlaid marble Arhat bed, the waxy green and white jade Buddha and other items were all the dowry items when my husband’s father married into the Pei family. They should be inherited by my husband. How did it happen? Mrs. Luo’s dowry?”
[Shen Huaiyan]: "System, if I slap the protagonist in the face, my progress points will not be deducted, right?"
[I sometimes become temporarily blind, you can do whatever you want. 】
If there is no problem with the system, Shen Huaiyan can rest assured.
Hearing him mention this, Pei Ning was so ashamed that he didn't dare to raise his head. When his mother added these things to his dowry when he got married, he was still a little hesitant, but his mother said that Pei Xishan had not returned home for ten years, so he might not be dead. If you can't come back from the battlefield, don't give up.
Who knew that Pei Xishan would return to Beijing the day after he got married. At that time, he was lucky enough to think that Pei Xishan would not care about this as he became a general.
Pei Ning didn't understand why Shen Huaiyan was so gentle and kind to him before, so why was he embarrassed like this now? He couldn't help but gritted his teeth and retorted, "Mr. Shen, you and my eldest brother haven't gotten married yet, so I'm afraid it's not appropriate to ask for a dowry here. Well, I know I rejected your advances before, which made you hold grudges in your heart, but you don’t have to be so aggressive."
"It's not appropriate for him to ask for it. I can ask for it myself." When Pei Xishan arrived, he happened to hear what he said about Shen Huaiyan. He walked over with a cold face, and the sharp cold air covered the handsome face and eyes, and the oppressive aura on his body made him feel sad. People automatically become timid.
He raised his eyes and looked at Pei Ning, and said slowly: "Tomorrow at the latest, send my father's things to the general's residence. If anything is missing or broken, we will directly contact the government." Da Li has a clear rule, women or brothers After getting married, the dowry is at your disposal. If you are deceased, it should be owned by your children.
Pei Xishan came to ask for it in person, so he had no reason to keep the things secret, but he was not sure whether his mother had taken some of the things and sold them.
Luo Mingcheng arrived in a hurry after hearing the news. Pei Ning suddenly wanted to find the backbone and said aggrievedly: "Mingcheng~"
Luo Mingcheng patted his shoulder comfortingly and took out a handkerchief to wipe his tears.
Pei Xishan just wanted to feel sick. He was the one who was robbed of his marriage. He was the one who had his dowry confiscated when he returned home. He was also the one whose reputation was harmed. Why did he look so aggrieved in the past two days?
When Shen Huaiyan saw that Pei Xishan didn't look at him when he came over, he felt aggrieved and secretly hooked Pei Xishan's finger under his sleeve. What he was thinking in his heart was, wife, look at me, look at me!
Realizing that his fingers were being hooked and there were too many people here, Pei Xishan felt a little embarrassed, so he secretly retracted his hand and heard a dissatisfied "hum" from the person next to him.
It's like a puppy petting its head with its owner, so cute.
A smile flashed in Pei Xishan's eyes.
Luo Mingcheng calmed down Pei Xiang's mood, and did not care that his official position was not high enough. He frowned and looked at Pei Xishan with a blue face, "General Pei, I know I can't help you for regretting the marriage, but the person I am truly happy with is Pei Ning, it’s really impossible to fulfill the engagement against your will, but Pei Ning did it for no reason, if you want revenge, just come and pick me up!”
"Okay." Pei Xishan waved his hands to the subordinates behind him and said calmly: "According to the law of our court, those who break the promise can be punished with twenty military sticks. Let's beat them here."
The attendant also went to the teahouse next door to borrow a bench, and without any explanation he grabbed Luo Mingcheng and pressed him down on it to begin the execution.
There were so many people watching around, Luo Mingcheng was so embarrassed that he gritted his teeth and remained silent.
