Su Fengyi had previously wanted to cut off her personal relationship with Pei Yu and only talk about business. Pei Yu gave him some time to let it go, so Su Fengyi gave him time and tacitly allowed him to move back to the Princess's Mansion.
Later, Pei Yu moved out of the Princess's Mansion and never came back. Su Fengyi felt that the time might have come and he should have let it go.
Regarding love affairs, Su Fengyi’s attitude is that if there is destiny, then there will be a gathering; if there is no destiny, then there will be separation; just let nature take its course and don’t force it.
So since he had let it go, Su Fengyi had no intention of going back to look for him. Parting ways in a friendly and dignified manner was a good ending for both of them.
But now from what Pei Yu said, he has not let it go.
Moreover, he actually became unlike himself because of this. Su Fengyi felt that it was necessary for her to explain it to him clearly, so she said:
"Pei Zhaoming, I don't dislike you. You don't have to learn from others for this."
Although the eldest princess did not say that she liked him, she did not dislike him either, which is also an answer and also a kind of progress.
Moreover, this method is the most effective one Pei Yu has tried. His Highness is really a soft-hearted prince.
As long as she softens her heart, there is a chance.
Pei Yu regained his usual gentle and affectionate appearance and smiled slightly:
"Okay, Your Highness, I feel relieved when you say so. Since Your Highness does not despise me, I can pursue you without any worries. Your Highness, can I pursue you?"
Pei Yu suddenly spoke so bluntly that Su Fengyi habitually went over his words three times in her mind, trying to find the hidden meaning behind his words, but she couldn't find it after searching over and over again.
He seemed to mean what he said literally.
Su Fengyi did not answer. Whether to say yes or no, it seemed inappropriate.
Pei Yu now has a lot of experience in dealing with this kind of thing, and then asked carefully:
"Isn't it possible?"
Su Fengyi still remembered the first time she met him, he looked confident and assured of victory. But now seeing him so worried and anxious, she felt a little guilty.
She said carefully:
"It's not impossible, it's just..."
Pei Yu asked more carefully:
"It's just that your Highness already has General Shen, Commander Xie, Commander Lu, Eunuch Xue, and someone else that Pei may not know about in his heart, so there is no place for Pei, right? Only Pei can't do it, right?"
Pei Yu was so frighteningly straightforward today that there was even a hint of weakness in his straightforwardness. He was clearly not accusing anyone, but Su Fengyi felt that every word he said seemed to be full of grievance, which made her a little overwhelmed.
Su Fengyi asked him:
"Since you know everything, you don't mind?"
Pei Yu sighed, his face full of helplessness:
"If Pei minds, will His Highness change for Pei?"
Su Fengyi knows the answer to this question, and she must answer it clearly and not perfunctorily.
Su Fengyi said affirmatively:
"Pei Zhaoming, I don't like to force things. I don't want to wrong you, nor do I want to wrong myself. Isn't it good for you and me like this?"
Pei Yu touched his heart and shook his head:
"But now, I feel bad. Your Highness asked me to look for someone else, and I did look for him. But after searching everywhere, it turns out that only Your Highness is here.
Your Highness, you don't have to sacrifice yourself for Pei, but give Pei a chance, okay? If Pei feels wronged, Pei will leave. "
……
Pei Yu said he wanted to pursue her, but in the next few days, he did not come to her again.
He neither sent her love words nor love poems, not even a flower.
But in the following days, the rumors about the emperor and Prince Pingliang became more and more outrageous and spread more and more widely. Su Fengyi realized that Pei Yu used the Pei family's ancestral method to send her something else to please her.
And the pursuit that Pei Yu told her about might not only be the pursuit of love between men and women, but also the pursuit inherited from Pei family's genes.
That is what the Pei family has been pursuing for hundreds of years, generation after generation, and that is to follow a wise ruler.
She had asked Xue Yu for an imperial edict, so it was natural for Xue Yu to see it.
But she had never told Pei Yu that, because Pei Yu was thoughtful and had inherited the gene, it was reasonable for her to see it.
The rumors about the emperor might have been started by Prince Pingliang in the beginning, who insisted that the emperor murdered his uncle and took possession of his aunt.
But once Pei Yu took action, it was not just this one matter. Many old events were involved, and even many of Qiao Gui's original crimes were implicated on the emperor.
In the rumors jointly created by Prince Pingliang and Pei Yu, the young emperor who ascended the throne gradually turned into a tyrant who was arrogant, extravagant, licentious, cruel and murderous, a type that was rare in a thousand years.
The Prince of Pingliang had not yet established himself firmly and had no foundation in the capital. He might have originally intended to take his time, but the speed at which the Emperor's reputation deteriorated was beyond the Prince's imagination.
Pei Yu not only used his methods on the emperor, but also on the King of Pingliang. As for the King of Pingliang, Pei Yu is now pushing him towards the position of a saint.
After Prince Pingliang sent Princess Qingyang into the palace and kept her in the capital, Su Fengyi roughly understood what he wanted to do.
The King of Pingliang had previously accumulated capital for his rebellion, mainly in several ways.
One was for military power, but General Shen was abducted back from the execution ground by Su Fengyi. The two of them joined forces to destroy the little prince of the Northern Tartars and King Zuo Xian. King Pingliang failed and still had no military power.
Another concern was money. As a result, Su Fengyi cut off the financial resources of King Pingliang through border trade and the surrender of the Northern Tartars. The annual salary of a vassal king alone could not support King Pingliang's rebellion.
The last one is reputation, which is also the last trump card in the hand of King Pingliang.
The reputation that King Pingliang built for himself was one of generosity and courtesy, and it was this reputation that people spread at the beginning.
If you want to be emperor, don't be impatient.
He is a high-ranking vassal prince. The emperor has no sons, the previous emperor died early, and his two elder brothers, one has a leg disease, and the other was scolded by Taizu for being unfilial. If anything happens to the emperor, he has the greatest chance of winning.
Whenever the conflict between the civil service group and the emperor intensified to the point where both sides could no longer tolerate it, when the civil service wanted to change the emperor, or when the emperor dies for some reason and needs to decide on the next emperor, the civil service group will definitely think of him first. He is in the capital, and is closer to the capital than other vassal kings, so he has more opportunities.
The King of Pingliang wanted to sit back and wait for others to invite him out of retirement, but Pei Yu's move ruined the King of Pingliang's plan.
Pei Yu found a few Taoist priests and went to the gate of the Prince of Pingliang's mansion. He counted with his fingers on the busy street and shouted:
"The reincarnation of Ziwei Star Lord! The reincarnation of Ziwei Star Lord!"
Ziwei Star is the Emperor Star. Once the news of the reincarnation of Ziwei Star Lord came out, it blocked the way for King Pingliang to ascend the throne by winning over the civil officials.
After all, for civil servants, there are some things that cannot be discussed openly, and the method used by King Pingliang was really too crude.
The intention of Prince Pingliang to usurp the throne was obvious. The civil officials were all people who valued their reputation, so who would dare to get involved with such a blatant traitor?
When Prince Pingliang and Pei Yu were fighting fiercely, Su Fengyi went to see Lu Hong every day as usual, to look at the various deployment maps and shift schedules of the imperial guards, and even followed Lu Hong on several errands and walked several patrol routes.
Prince Pingliang wants to usurp the throne. No matter what means he uses, it will eventually fall into the hands of military power and the emperor, and he cannot avoid the imperial guards.
That day, Su Fengyi was looking at the imperial guards' schedule for this month as usual, when He Hongfei suddenly rushed in with a serious look on his face:
"Your Highness, something happened. Lord Luo was beaten to death by the imperial guards."
