My Cousin is So Weak

Chapter 137 Follow the hearts of the people rather than power

"You are here."

"Princess, you are joking. Today is your special day. How can you not come to congratulate me?"

Even though Jiang Shiyuan said this, Princess Qinghuan had already changed back to her old clothes and couldn't even spend the night in her so-called wedding clothes. She was really acting out of will.

Pei Zisu held two jars of good wine in his hand. Seeing this, Princess Qinghuan was even happier than she was getting married today.

"This wine is called Sangzhi. I brought it from Hanzhou specially. There are only two jars in total. I hope the princess likes it."

"This gift from General Pei is more satisfactory to me than the other gifts."

While joking, the three of them sat down in front of the table, and soon the servants from the princess's palace brought the wine cups. Then Granny Shen winked at the maids, and everyone left.

There were only three people left in the hall.

Full of wine and affection, Jiang Shiyuan picked up the wine cup in front of him and congratulated him.

"My congratulations to the princess, I wish you all the best."

When Princess Qinghuan heard this, she liked her more than those couples who had been together for hundreds of years, so she picked up the wine cup and replied.

"I like A Nian's words very much."

Then she drank it all in one gulp. Mulberry Branch was not a strong liquor. It was mellow and had a sweet fruity taste. Princess Qinghuan couldn't live without it after two sips.

"Who makes the wine? He's really good at it."

"Made by a blind mother-in-law in Hanzhou, she is now 80 years old. If you can drink this wine this year, you may not drink it next year."

"Fang Zi refuses to spread the word?"

"No, I have come to ask for advice several times. Unfortunately, my mother-in-law said that this wine recipe was left by her deceased relatives. She is the only one who can make it. Others will not taste the same if they make it, so I don't plan to keep it. ”

Princess Qinghuan sighed, and then took another drink.

"This is always the case in the world. You may not get what you want, but you don't care if you lose what you get."

There was a rare sadness in these words. This was an emotion Jiang Shiyuan had never seen on the princess before, so he frowned and looked at her.

"Princess, are you a little drunk?"

"It's only a few drinks. Ah Nian underestimates my drinking capacity."

With just one sentence, Princess Qinghuan's slightly sad mood was quickly restrained, and then she offered a toast to Pei Zisu.

"Little General Pei, the wine you drank today is in line with my princess's temper. When you two get married in the future, I will give you a hundred jars of the palace's fine wine in return."

"Princess you're welcome, please."

After drinking a few drinks in succession, she was no different from an ordinary close friend. Princess Qinghuan spoke first due to her drunkenness, and her words were full of temptations.

"The Pei family belongs to the Sui Dynasty. General Pei is also a loyal and courageous person. But sometimes he is far away from Xijing. Even this princess doesn't quite understand what your heart is. If this princess can be born, she will become Man, I must recruit you as my subordinate to conquer the world. "

If she was so arrogant, only Princess Qinghuan of Man Da Sui would dare to speak like this.

Jiang Shiyuan looked around subconsciously, and suddenly realized that this was the princess's mansion. As Princess Qinghuan said, there were only two kinds of secrets here: those that could not be leaked out and those that wanted to be leaked out, so he was relieved to mention it.

Pei Zifeng's drinking capacity was so great that he was not even drunk at all. Naturally, he could understand the thoughts behind Princess Qinghuan's words, so he drank a bowl of wine and said to her. "Princess Muzan, the Pei family has always been the sharp sword of Da Sui, protecting the people of Da Sui."

As soon as these words came out, Princess Qinghuan's mood became a little higher due to the alcohol. She raised her phoenix eyes and said immediately.

"Little General Pei's words are quite right. This world is naturally Da Sui's world, and it is also my father's world. You think so."

Pei Zisu smiled and answered calmly.

"What the princess said is true."

"That's good. I just hope that General Pei will always remember these words today. Only in this way can God bless me, Da Sui, and make our dynasty stable forever."

Ambition and indifference were hidden in his eyes. He lowered his eyes and looked at the mulberry wine in the wine cup. Pei Zifan remembered what the old woman said to him.

"The dynasty is not only for the rich and powerful to make money and establish their prestige, but also for the common people to survive. If they don't let us live, then they won't be able to sit back and relax!"

He is obviously blind and old, but when he says these words, he feels as if he is powerful enough to lift mountains and rivers. Therefore, Pei Zichen sometimes feels that these people in Xijing City are really living a much more comfortable life. What he thinks about all day long It is not about how to resist foreign aggression, but about fighting for power, including the Princess Qinghuan in front of her.

Naturally, Pei Zisu would rather side with the King of Han than them.

At least what he saw and experienced told him that King Han's ability and ambition were not just for the cold throne.

One by one, no one knows how the wedding night in the princess's mansion ended.

But when Pei Zifeng personally sent Jiang Shiyuan back, he used the "appearance" of drunkenness to say something more meaningful.

"A-Nian, after we get married, go to the princess's house as little as possible. Even if the princess's feelings for you are as clear as before, she can't stand up to the rumors outside and the position she wants to defend. This matter has nothing to do with you, so It’s better not to get involved.”

After hearing his words, Jiang Shiyuan also looked unhappy.

"Cousin Pei, the King of Han, are you going to rebel after all?"

When the reverse word came out of her mouth, Pei Zifeng immediately covered it. He looked at the woman in front of him who was calmer than him with complicated eyes, and suddenly felt panicked.

As if all his plans were transparent in her eyes, the two faced each other in silence until the carriage arrived at the door of Jiang's house. Pei Zichen did not answer this sentence, but instead spoke instead.

"Although destiny is determined by me and not by God, the power is determined by the people's will and not by the power."

At this point, Jiang Shiyuan suddenly understood something. Perhaps the reason why the King of Han in his previous life rebelled was not because of Pei Zifen's death, but because they had planned it for a long time. But no one expected that he would die in such a scene. Among the inexplicable murders.

But the arrow was on the string and had to be fired.

Moreover, Pei Zisu's death gave the King of Han enough reason to at least use his death to provoke the Pei family's army to resent the dynasty.

Both of them were silent, with a lot of complicated emotions in them.

Jiang Shiyuan still remembers the sense of urgency when the King of Han came to the city. At that time, all the female relatives in the capital were afraid. Where would the officials kneel if the emperor changed their masters?

"Girl, we're home."

When Liu Hua's voice came in from outside, the solemnity between the two of them disappeared a lot. Jiang Shiyuan stood up and prepared to go down. Pei Zisu suddenly took her hand and said.

"Those things are all things for the future. The most important thing right now is your marriage. The time to go to Guanghua Temple remains unchanged. I will pick you up in three days, okay?"

Being able to change his mood in an instant, Jiang Shiyuan felt that Pei Zifeng was much more capable than himself.

But right now, she could neither reverse nor change these things, so she could only take one step at a time, then nodded and agreed.
