miscalculation

On that day Yun Zhao took Zhang Huaimin's blood and left the prison to save Xiao Liang, and did not help Pei Shang to rob the prison.Pei Shang walked to the door of the cell and saw the young and old Pei family, knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak out.Knowing that he could not save the whole family, he wanted to take Pei Zhongyu and Pei Yuehua away, but he was flatly rejected by Pei Zhongyu.

"Daddy, why don't you come with me?"

"Shang'er, there is something that has been in my heart for many years as a father, and I never told you. Now is the right time. You don't have to stay long, let alone try to rob the prison. This is the fate of my Pei family, and it can be regarded as deserved retribution."

"Daddy, what are you talking about?"

"Back when my Pei family took advantage of the Yang family and King Ning's rebellion with Erhai Lake, it made a fortune for the country. Although this matter was suppressed by Concubine Liu Chen and Uncle Liu Guo, our family traveled far away to the South China Sea for many years to avoid disaster. I have been an old father for several years, and I want to return to the capital. No matter what, the Pei family and the Liu family are closely related, so I want to rely on the big tree of the Liu family. If I can marry your sister into Liang Wangfu as a side Concubine, she is also a good backer. It is also my greed that caused such a disaster."

"Daddy, it's clearly my master... who deliberately framed him, what has it to do with our Pei family?"

"I won't talk about these things, but now I want to tell you the most important thing. You are not the son of my Pei Zhongshu, so the life and death of my Pei family has nothing to do with you."

Pei Shang knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "Father, why did you say such things in this matter? I am your son who was raised by you. Could it be that I am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"

"I'll tell you the ins and outs, and then you can make a decision. Back then, the Princess of Xiliang was from southern Xinjiang. She possessed unique skills, but because of her teacher's order, she could only pass on her martial arts to people in the Central Plains. It just so happened that there was a sinful slave in her palace. , it was the Dongling people who suffered from the war and fell into their country. The concubine accepted the slaves as servants and taught her martial arts. Not long after, the concubine also died of illness. This country was swallowed up by Dongling overnight. As a native of Dongling, she could neither seek revenge nor act as if nothing had happened, so she wandered among the people. She was depressed, poor and sick, and happened to meet a noble son, and was rescued by him, and then fell in love with him, and then It was decided privately for life. Unexpectedly, she just got pregnant and found out that this noble son has a wife in his family, so she left angrily."

"Then what happened later?" Pei Shang always felt a little uneasy in his heart. If you want to talk about your son, Pei Zhongshu can be regarded as self-made, and he has nothing to do with your son.

"Your nobleman was born in a wealthy family, but he devoted himself to business, and gradually became rich in the world. After the maid gave birth, she thought that her child could not live worse than others, so she sent the infant child to your rival's house. At the door of the house. The adversary was destined to have no children, and he didn't know the origin of the child. Seeing such a powdered and jade-carved baby being abandoned by others, he adopted it as an adopted son and treated it as his own."

Pei Shang couldn't hold back anymore, stood up and said, "Stop talking! No matter who he is, I, Pei Shang, only have you as my father."

"The aristocratic son repeatedly inquired about the whereabouts of the child, but in the end he returned disappointed. Until one year, he and I had a business dispute again, so he invited me to the teahouse to discuss. I didn't expect you to be playful and follow in the father's carriage. I was seen by him. He immediately recognized you as his child. Since then, he has repeatedly favored me and stopped arguing. I was curious, and found that you were indeed somewhat similar to him, so I guessed it. , although he is my deadly enemy in the business field, but you are innocent, I want to ask him to explain your identity to you. But he said that you are very good with me, so there is no need to recognize each other. "

Pei Shang shook his head and said, "Since that's the case, why do you need to say it again?"

"Our Pei family is in prison, and we are often taken care of by others. I think that although you have made a move, it is definitely not without such a big hand. It must be him who helped secretly, and now he has secretly taken your sister away, so Now, I have nothing to worry about. There is no need to mention the matter of robbing the prison, you can go now!"

Pei Shang took out his sword and was about to cut off the prison door, but saw several figures flashing out, trying to restrain him.

Pei Zhongshu was very anxious and said, "Leave immediately, or I will kill my father on the spot!"

Pei Shang had no choice but to kneel on the ground and kowtow three times before leaving.The group of people around him protected him tightly and didn't let him go to the execution ground. They were only responsible for collecting the corpse for the Pei family and dealing with the aftermath.

He was melancholy every day, so he would only drink too much, and after three months, he reached the border of Zhongzhou.His hunting order was withdrawn for no reason, and he simply hid in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, drunk and dreaming of death.

It was the Lantern Festival when Yun Zhao found him.Pei Shang was in the Zuimenglou by the Qinhuai River, gazing at the moon alone, and rarely had anyone around him, making him look extremely lonely.There was a lot of people outside, he was like an ice sculpture in such a place, Yun Zhao couldn't bear to see him.

Pei Shang wanted to drink alone, but Yun Zhao suddenly appeared, so he was a little surprised.Unexpectedly, they drew their swords to face each other, but Yun Zhao was caught off guard.He kept dodging and didn't fight back, he was almost hit by the sword.Pei Shang didn't expect that he would be injured, he didn't know what to do for a moment, he didn't put down his sword, and he didn't take any further steps.

Yun Zhao, however, held the sword and approached Pei Shang step by step. The sword pierced deeper and deeper, and finally penetrated his shoulder.Pei Shang stared blankly, half of Yun Zhao's skirt was soon stained with blood, but the two just looked at each other without saying a word.

"Kill me, will you feel better?"

"You go!"

"Let's go? Why should I go? I'm a member of the Yang family. If you want revenge, wouldn't it be a good time for you to find me?"

"Yun Zhao, don't force me."

Pei Shang immediately cut off the sword with internal force, leaving half still on Yun Zhao's body, and said: "There is no relationship between you and me."

Yun Zhao laughed loudly, pulled the wound, and more blood flowed out, but he didn't care.He just came forward, hugged Pei Shang gently, and sighed: "You are right, our luck is really not very good."

As he spoke, he flew away without a trace.Pei Shang looked at the blood on the ground and burst into tears, like a six or seven-year-old child kneeling beside the bed and crying so hard that he couldn't help himself.Outside the Lantern Festival, Zuimenglou and the continuous sound of string and bamboo orchestras completely covered his cries.

Yun Zhao glanced at Ji Lan and Xiao Liang, and said, "You don't have to look at me like that, I was injured and hid on the eaves, waiting for his tears to dry up and my blood to run out before I left. "

Xiao Liang didn't know how to comfort him, so he said, "What happened later? You went to the southern border to find me? Then on the way back this time, did you meet Mr. Pei again? Are you reconciled?"

Yun Zhao said: "This is another very long story, let's talk about it another day, you are all tired today. Ji Lan, you might as well go back to the Grand Master's Mansion first, after all, your grandfather is seriously ill, so there must be no one around you."

Ji Lan nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go back first."

Watching him walk out, Xiao Liang pulled Yun Zhao and said, "Cousin, I don't know why, but I always feel that Jing Bo is ignoring me. Is he angry at me for what my father did to the Grand Master?"

Yun Zhao said: "Don't think about it, venting anger on such a childish thing, he won't be like this."

Xiao Liang said: "No, I'm afraid he is just angry. I just don't know what he is angry with and who he is angry with."

Yun Zhao said, "He's angry with himself."

When Xiao Liang heard about it, he suddenly raised his feet and ran, chasing out the gate of the mansion, but seeing Ji Lan just stepped on his horse, he said: "You are you, I am me, father is emperor, grand master is grand master. Whale, do you understand or not?"

Ji Lan was taken aback for a moment, then understood, and said: "Fish are in the sea, phoenix is ​​in the air, after all, they can't escape the big net of heaven and earth. Little Phoenix, take a good rest and talk about it later."

After finishing speaking, he left in the dust, leaving only Xiao Liang standing at the gate of the mansion in a daze.
