I'm afraid you'll be widowed

Early in the morning, the clouds were heavy.

Pei Gong entered Pei Xuan's yard early in the morning.

Just outside the door, I could hear the intermittent conversation between my father and elder brother Pei Xuan.

First came the elder brother Pei Xuan's voice: "Xuan Fuwei is a traitor, and I'm afraid he has already entered the hands of the inner guard, and there is no news of that letter."

"In case, I mean, in case this letter is really a rebellious statement, it will be wronged on our Pei family."

Then came his father Liang Guogong: "Although the emperor has not pursued it, he does not trust our Pei family very much."

"There is no movement in the palace right now. I think there is no progress on the side of the inner guard. I'm afraid that the second child will not wake up for a long time, and if there are traitors obstructing it, His Majesty's patience will be exhausted..."

"The letter has never been found by us, nor has it fallen into the hands of the inner guard. Where else can it be?"

Pei Xuan was obviously full of worries.

Liang Guogong sighed deeply: "Perhaps the letter has been handed over to the people in Beijing who responded to the army bandits, but unfortunately we don't know what kind of conspiracy they have."

"Xuan'er, don't bother too much. It's important to take good care of your body. As a father, you have ignored political affairs all these years and put the entire family on you, which is why you have suffered so many diseases. I am ashamed of you."

Pei Xuan smiled again: "It is the duty of a son to share the worries of the father. What did the father say?"

"Now that Jian Rang is working in Jinyiwei, he can take care of himself. Jianxian and Siqi are also very sensible. I am very pleased."

Pei Gong seldom heard his eldest brother praise himself to others, so he couldn't help but roll his eyes and almost laughed out loud.

Liang Guogong looked outside the door: "Who is here?"

Only now did Pei Gong appear from the door, and called honestly, "Father."

Seeing that it was Pei Gong who came, the father and brother in the room cut the previous topic by coincidence.

Liang Guogong stroked his beard and stared lightly: "Little brat, how dare you overhear me talking to your elder brother?"

"Think it will be a big deal if you enter Jinyiwei to do some errands? I think you are itchy?"

Liang Guogong was nearly sixty years old, with a white beard and beautiful beard, and his frown and smile carried a majesty that was even better than Pei Xuan.

He was wearing a dark green taoist robe with a gray sash around his waist. Although he had been idle in Beijing for a long time, he was still wearing the clothes of a commoner, but when he sat by the bed, his legs were still slightly apart and his figure was straight. He was a typical military officer. Sitting posture, it is not difficult to see that he dominated the battlefield in the early years and swept away the shadow of bandits.

Pei Gongrao is a demon king in the world, at most he only dared to be "pretty proud" in front of his elder brother Pei Xuan.

In front of his father Liang Guogong, although he has gradually become less serious in the past two years, he used to always lie cross-legged.

Pei Gong snorted lightly, and put Pei Xuan's medicine bowl on the table to dry: "Father, you are quite old."

"Save your energy to practice calligraphy, tease the birds, don't beat and kill people. If you want to fight, go out and beat outsiders, don't just stay in the house and beat your own son."

Pei Xuan on the bed frowned: "Jian Rang, why are you talking to Dad?"

Everyone in the Pei family knew that although the three sons in the family were all descended from Mrs. Liang Guogong, they were different from each other.

The eldest son, Pei Xuan, is prudent and resourceful, but his physique is a little weak, and he was born with a poor foundation in martial arts; Seeking to be able to fight, although his temper is arrogant and extravagant, his nature is not bad.

However, Pei Gong, the third child, was taken care of by his father and brother, and he didn't take anything seriously. He lived like a normal person all day long, so naturally it was difficult to establish the achievements of Liang Guogong in the past.

Pei Gong lowered his eyes and stopped talking, and accepted Pei Xuan's criticism with lowered eyebrows, and did not talk back like usual.

Liang Guogong glanced again: "I heard that the third child handled Xianghai's official bank case and turned the whole county government upside down?"

Pei Xuan coughed and laughed twice: "Father Tiger has no dogs."

Liang Guogong put his hands on his knees: "Forget it, working in Jinyiwei is better than wandering outside."

"It's rare for the little bastard to stop causing trouble for the house. However, I don't know how much he weighs. The Xianghai case..."

Pei Gong shrugged nonchalantly, reached out and put the warm medicine into Pei Xuan's hand: "I have my own think tank."

"Don't bother father and brother."

Eldest brother Pei Xuan had a gratified smile in his eyes: "It's great that Jian Rang is willing to do things in such a down-to-earth manner."

"The former Tianwei said that there was another case in the south of the city. Recently, there has been an uproar, and the color of the talk has changed. I am going to ask someone to investigate. Are you willing to go again?"

"It can be done." Pei Gong sat on Pei Xuan's bed in a serious manner and raised his eyebrows, "However, I need help."

Pei Xuan raised his hand and drank a bowl of bitter medicine: "Of course, you are also Pei Baihu now, how can you do it without a few banner officials?"

Pei Gong smiled: "It's not the banner officer who listens to orders, but the kind of helper who uses his brain to investigate together."

"For example, Fang Cenxi from Dali Temple is a judge."

A trace of strangeness flashed in Liang Guogong's eyes: "Someone asked you to take him with him and run an errand together?"

"Didn't I ask you to do other things?"

"That's not true." Pei Gong smiled to himself.

Although he told Fang Cen Xi about the whole story of his second elder brother's Xuanfu in private, he promised his elder brother not to intervene before, but now, in front of his father and brother, he will naturally not reveal this extraneous matter by himself.

Pei Gong smiled: "It's just getting along."

"Our Liang Guogong's mansion is not something everyone wants to praise, not to mention the current state, I will naturally be careful."

Liang Guogong sneered: "Little brat, you'd better be."

Pei Xuan also patted Pei Gong's shoulder twice: "Then I'll go to Weili to lead the messenger tomorrow. It's not difficult to find someone."

"What's the case that made such a big fuss? You want Jin Yiwei to come forward?"

"It is said that there are tombs outside in the south of the city, and people often see black and white impermanent ghosts carrying coffins at night."

"There were also people who saw ghosts digging graves and chewing human corpses, causing the people to shut their doors at night and panic."

Pei Gong froze for a moment, and all the strange stories he heard from his brothers when he was young flooded into his mind.

A strange scene suddenly appeared in front of him, and he couldn't help gasping: "Impermanence ghost digging graves?"

Pei Xuan put down the medicine bowl and asked without raising his head, "What's the matter? Is Jian Rang afraid of ghosts?"

Before Pei Gong had time to refute, Pei Siqi's voice came into the yard from a distance.

"Third brother? Where's the raccoon slave in your yard? It was there last night, why is it gone now?"

Pei Gong's expression froze, and he hurriedly looked back: "Bai Langhua isn't in the courtyard?"

He didn't bother to explain further, turned around and bid farewell to his father and brother, and hurried back to his yard.

There was still half of the fish in the cat bowl, but the white shadow disappeared in the huge yard.

Pei Gong only felt a panic in his heart.

The first time he was entrusted by someone, he lost his mandarin duck-eyed lion cat, money was second, and he was afraid that he would not be easy to deal with this time.

I didn't want the room to leak and it rained all night, the mansion was turned upside down to find only half a cup of tea, and the servants suddenly passed on that Fang Cenxi came to visit the Duke's mansion.

There is no sign of the cat, but the person who wants the cat has been working very early.

Pei Gong could only bite the bullet and go to the Nuan Pavilion next to the concierge for guests, he was already prepared in his heart to be scolded in front of Fang Cenxi.

He told Fang Cen Xi the situation truthfully, but Fang Cen Xi's face was normal when he heard it.

"I'm here to talk to the third master about this." He smiled slightly and explained in a warm voice, "Bailanghua ran back by herself after the curfew last night."

"Sorry, I made the third master worry."

After saying that, Fang Cenxi took out another square brocade box and pushed it in front of Pei Gong.

"Thank you, Third Master, for saving Huanhuan."

Pei Gong opened the box and glanced, there was a small seal engraved with his name and surname.

Although the chapter stone is not a precious stone, the quality of the stone is excellent, and the carving knife is neat and round, and the seal cutting is harmonious.

Fang Cenxi stretched out his fingertips and tapped on the top of the box twice: "This chapter stone is difficult to serve, the box is specially made for this chapter, third master, please remember, it is just right to put the chapter in this box in the past, don't change it into the other side. box."

"The rest is easy to take care of."

Pei Gong raised his eyebrows: "You carved it?"

Fang Cenxi nodded: "Sir, please don't take it too seriously."

Pei Gong looked at Xiaoyin over and over again, and couldn't help but slightly twitch the corners of his lips.

This was specially engraved by Fang Cenxi, no matter how you look at it, it is naturally pleasing to the eye.

Fang Cenxi then handed over the collar that Pei Gong gave to the cat: "This silver collar is precious, and the white waves will definitely be damaged within three to five days."

"It's better to ask the third master to put it away, so that it will be safer."

Pei Gong clicked his tongue softly: "This is not for you, who told you to take it off?"

"I didn't push the wolf tooth before, but now you are a mother-in-law with a silver collar. If you don't accept this silver collar, then I can't accept your little seal either."

Fang Cenxi's smiling eyebrows slowly frowned: "One yard is worth one yard. This is thanks to the third master for saving someone from the river. The third master has to accept it."

"Okay, then I'll give you the same size." Pei Gong took Fang Cenxi's brocade box, "This silver collar is not given for nothing."

"There is a case in the south of the city that needs to bother you. There has been a lot of noise recently. You may have heard of it, so let's take this as a betrothal."

He thought about it for a while, and then added a superfluous sentence: "It's okay to be afraid of ghosts, I'm here, and I will investigate with you."

Fang Cenxi was silent for a while, then suddenly he chuckled and said, "That's all, I'll go."

"What the third master asks, of course, I will not hesitate."

Pei Gong patted Fang Cenxi's shoulder lightly: "That's true."

"I'll go to Zhenfusi Yamen to pick up the formalities later, and ask them to bring you the case files."

Fang Cenxi took a deep breath, and glanced sideways at his shoulder that had been patted.

Seeing the faint strangeness in his eyes, Pei Gong couldn't help but paused: "Why?"

Fang Cenxi shook his head and said word by word: "It's okay."

Although it was the third time, he obviously still cared about Pei Gong's sudden indifference.

He didn't say any more, just made a bow: "There is still something to do in Dali Temple, so I will take my leave now."

"I'm in the Yamen in the afternoon, waiting for the third master's file."

The two said goodbye in front of the mansion.

Pei Gong went back to the courtyard, but he was not in a hurry to go to the Fusi yamen, instead he sat in front of the window with Xiao Yin and concentrated.

He is a practicing family, and he seldom uses words and ink, so there are not many opportunities to use this kind of things.But thinking that Fang Cenxi engraved this little seal as a gift for him, Pei Gong couldn't put it down for a while.

Thinking of his obvious reaction after taking pictures of Fang Cenxi in the afternoon, Pei Gong couldn't help but fell into deep thought, and then laughed to himself——

Could it be that Master Xiaofang is still embarrassed?

With a smile on the corners of Pei Gong's lips, he seemed to have firmed up his mind all of a sudden.

No matter what kind of ghosts and spirits there are in the south of the city, he must protect Fang Cenxi well.

After all, he was a daredevil, after all.

Although the worldly vision is good, he must not let down Mr. Xiao Fang's willingness to send charcoal in a timely manner.

Pei Gou, stop now, stop breaking yourself!
