Marry a wife to be the emperor

Chapter 41 Take off the mask

Pei Yan seldom came to this underground palace. Walking out from Pei's house to this palace, and then passing through the long tunnel, he could directly leave Yandu and go to the junction of the frontier fortress.Every time he comes down, someone will receive him here. The last time he came was a year ago.

The young man in front of him was tall and slender, wearing clothes made of cloud brocade, with dark brown eyes, a high bridge of nose, and thin and red lips. Coupled with those peach blossom eyes, he gave people a sense of gorgeousness. ruthless.

Pei Yan didn't show any kindness to him either, staring at the young man's empty hand, he asked coldly, "Where is the medicine?"

The young man Shi Shiran smiled: "Pei Xiang is too anxious, the medicine is naturally brought here, the Lord still values ​​you very much, so you won't just die like this." He threw out a small green ball Porcelain bottle.

Pei Yanyan caught it with his hand and unscrewed the small bottle. There were twelve small brown pills in it. He poured one into his mouth, and swallowed one with his head raised.

Usually the news is placed in the designated place, and the person sent by the other party will naturally take the things away. Only at this time of the year, he will come to this underground palace to get medicine. A pill can support him After a month, twelve pills a year, if he didn't take the medicine in time, he would have to endure the pain of thousands of ants eating his heart day and night. If he betrayed him, it would be nothing if his fame and fortune were gone, but he would definitely not be able to do so if he wanted to implicate the whole family of Pei's family to death. arrived.

Back then, the worthless boy from a poor family was able to marry a beautiful wife with tens of thousands of wealth, and all the way so quickly sat down to the position of one person under one person and above ten thousand people. Except for his own talent, there was absolutely no shortage of people behind his back. contribute.

He is Da Lan's left side, but he is also a good husband and father, and he is also an ordinary man who is afraid of death and has ambitions. These people let him step into a trap from the very beginning, and they threatened and lured him. More and more, even if he wanted to, he couldn't get away.

After taking the medicine, Pei Yan said expressionlessly: "I've already contacted the relevant people to get the auspicious beast Bai Lin out. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

There are many people like him in Dalan's court and all walks of life, some are descendants of the remnants of the previous dynasty, and some are talented people who are controlled by desire or other things like him.

Some of the nails buried by the remnants of the previous dynasty were successfully pulled out by the reigning emperor, and some of them were hidden for a lifetime without being discovered.Sitting in the position of Zuo Xiang, Pei Yan can move a lot, but those people will not let him do something easily, so as not to be discovered by the spies of Da Lan's royal family.

At the beginning, Sibis Kingdom presented two beasts to the emperor, one male and one female. The male one successfully escaped from the gold cage under Pei Yan's operation, while the female one stayed there and was shot by an arrow at the order of the Supreme Emperor. die.Before the people of Sibis gave gifts, the royal family would not deliberately inquire about what they gave. When they met with the emperor, they found that there was a missing beast, and the people of Sibis would not say much.

"You did a good job this time." The young man praised Pei Yan sincerely, "But there is one more thing you need to do soon."

How many bloody scenes he Pei Yan had seen before, the bloody scene of a white-haired beast being shot to death by random arrows and eaten by a lion was not worthy of his attention, just because the meaning of the beast made him feel chills.Even though neither the one shot to death nor the one sent away was the real beast Bai Lin, he still had the illusion that his heart was pierced by thousands of arrows and the entire Pei Mansion was ransacked and exterminated because of this scene.

"What else is needed, I can only do my best. If it crosses the line and Jiaotai Shulan finds out, it will drag down the entire Pei Mansion."

The young man smiled: "Of course it's something you can do. We know better than you that rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry." It is very precious, and it would be a loss for everyone in the Pei family to use it.

Ye Shi, Pei Qinghong, and Pei Qingyi couldn't all be poisoned, otherwise the old fox felt that he had lost hope that the entire Pei family would be under the control of others for the rest of his life, so he might quit and take the matter to Tai Shulan. It will hurt your spirits.The only one the Pei family needs to contact them is Pei Yan. Pei Qinghong and Pei Qingyi will be fine, which is the most important condition for them to stabilize Pei Yan.

The descendants of the former royal family have endured for hundreds of years. The power of these people has not declined but has grown stronger in the dark. Especially when Emperor Yuanrui was in power, the world was prone to chaos. In some places, natural disasters were actually caused by these Man-made disasters caused by people, the more chaotic the world is, the greater the chance of overthrowing Da Lan's rule.

With this kind of forbearance and these hidden stakes, the extinct dynasty has always been a thorn in the heart of Da Lan's royal family.Every Emperor Dalan had rebellions from the remnants of the previous dynasty when he was in office, some of them were real, and some were just rebelling under the guise of the remnants of the previous dynasty.

There is no essential difference between the emperor's fatuousness leading to peasant uprisings to overthrow the rule of the Dalan royal family and the remnants of the previous dynasty regaining their throne.The people don't care who is ruling them, as long as they are people from this land, not those uncivilized Tartars in Fanbangwailu, as long as they can live a good life, they are happy to be emperor.

"What do you want me to do? Young Emperor doesn't have the ability to overthrow the Supreme Emperor. Even if I stand on his side, Empress Dowager Zhang and Grand Uncle Yue don't have the ability." Only at this time, Pei Yan would call Young Emperor by his first name.

The younger the uncle, the younger the queen mother is, she is devoted to the Zhang family of the clan behind her. As long as there is no emperor Tai Shulan to control the government, the world will be in chaos.Every year when the emperor travels, he will be assassinated in various ways. It has become a tradition in the Dalan royal family for an emperor to have many dead men as substitutes.

Pei Yan knew very well that the Supreme Emperor in the palace did not know how many times he had been assassinated, but most of them failed.There were also several times when Tai Shulan was severely injured by the loss of a lot of dead men, but in the end it was only the other side's shadow guard who was stabbed, and Yu Dalan's rule was not hindered.

"My master's marriage should also be arranged on the agenda. This time, I want to entrust you with a matter to propose to the little master, the Princess Yuyang."

Seeing that the people of Dalan became more and more comfortable and prosperous under Tai Shulan's rule, these remnants of the previous dynasty also temporarily died down, but it didn't mean they gave up just like that.As long as there is a chance, they will attack at any time, and the embankment of a thousand miles will be destroyed by an ant's nest. As long as their blood of supporting the royal family is still in this world, they will never give up.

Pei Yan was obviously relieved, this is not a difficult task: "Of course I will take care of this matter, how is my son doing?"

"The third son of your mansion is now taking the autumn exam this year, a native of Ji from Shandong, Qiao Anran, named Ziyu." The young man opened the bead curtain and walked back after telling the story: "I look forward to good news from Prime Minister Pei .”

When Pei Yan walked back with the lamp again and pushed the box back to its original place, he couldn't stop repeating the name over and over in his heart: "Qiao Anran, Ziyu. Anran, Ziyu, beautiful jade from my Pei family... ..."

The Pei family's blood is filled with the fragrance of books and ink, and they are born to read. Although the second son, Pei Qinghong, is good at martial arts, he still likes poetry and writing.Only Pei Qinglin was born to like martial arts, and even clamored to become a general, who wielded knives and guns, no matter how much he was taught, he was different from the real Pei family.

The surviving member of the royal family from the previous dynasty loved to kill by nature. He raised the orphan of the previous dynasty with the best conditions, and his third son was born only a few days away from the other party. Being exchanged, Dugu Qiyan became his third son, Pei Qinglin, while his real child was brought up by an ordinary family named Qiao, who had no children, and raised his son as his own, but The family situation of that family is not very good.

The couple who adopted Qiao Anran passed away a few years ago. If it wasn't for Qiao Anran's natural ability to study, and his parents had saved him a sum of money to go to Beijing for the exam, Qiao Anran might only be able to live in the small town of Kuaiji in Shandong. The place lived a miserable life.

In his heart, he was very ashamed of his third child, but the Pei family was on the cusp of the storm again. It was impossible for him to take care of that child secretly, but for the imperial examination, as long as Qiao Anran was really talented , he will never let the shady scene in the examination room affect his child's ranking.

He has made up his mind to discuss with Mrs. Ye about marrying Princess Yuyang, as long as it will not directly endanger the people and the country of Dalan, he will do whatever those people tell him.

Pei Qinghong didn't know that his father had concealed such a great thing. Parents have many secrets of their own. If they really told him, they would involve him and harm him.

On the second day, the courtiers stood neatly according to where they were supposed to be. Pei Qinghong was originally looking straight ahead, but today he raised his head higher than usual. Like many officials, he stretched his neck and raised his head I went to see the place where the Supreme Emperor came out, and wanted to see what the Supreme Emperor looked like.

When the latter came into the sight of everyone, he was still wearing that mask, and when he was waiting for the other party to sit on the throne, the courtiers knelt down to pay respects to the Supreme Emperor and the emperor together: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Everyone is flattened." The little emperor said this once and waved his hands, but everyone didn't get up, they had to wait until the Supreme Emperor said the words to flatten their bodies, and then everyone stood up one after another.

The slender hand protruding from the bright yellow dragon robe held the white jade mask, and then gently removed the mask from his face.Out of a strong curiosity, Pei Qinghong stared at the man without blinking, until the other party showed his real face, then he quickly lowered his head and looked at his heart.
