As soon as it got dark, the two of them came out of Nanny Zhang's house in a carriage, and then parked the carriage in the Shu's courtyard, and sneaked into the pastry shop in Yuyangzhuang under cover of the night.

The masked leader and others had been waiting in the back room of the shop for a long time. When they saw them coming in, they all stood up, bowed and cupped their hands towards the two of them, and called "Master".

The masked leader didn't talk nonsense, and poured out all the things he investigated.

After several months, they finally checked the evidence that Li Shaoheng left behind.

After colluding with the ins and outs, Lian Yi was able to confirm that the Pei family that Li Shaoheng mentioned before his death was not Pei Yanfeng's elder brother Pei Yanli.

Because Pei Yanli, as they knew on the surface, was transferred to Xuli City by the nobles of the imperial city five years ago to deal with the war horse. The Pei family actually went to see him, but he himself never came back.

The reason why he never came back was that apart from the fact that the war horse agreement with Xu Licheng needed to be maintained for a long time, as Li Shaoheng found out, there were traces of Pei Yanfeng joining forces.

Following the clue left by Li Shaoheng, they made unannounced visits for a long time, and finally dug out all the deeper things inside.

It turned out that at first, the city lord did not appoint Pei Yanli to go to Xuli City. At that time, Pei Yanli, as the successor trained by Master Pei, would soon take over the power of the Pei family.

In order to seize power, Pei Yanfeng jointly bought the supervisor of rituals to bribe the inner supervisor next to the city lord, and finally when the order was issued, he hinted that the Pei family would send Pei Yanli out.

And the condition Pei Yanfeng agreed to was that Zhong Qiqi, who had just met Pei Yanfeng a few times at that time and had a crush on Pei Yanfeng, would become the head of the Pei family from now on.

With hints from the inner eunuch, Master Pei had no choice but to send Pei Yanli to Xuli City in order to cater to the holy favor.

Later, in order to keep Pei Yanli trapped in Xuli City, Pei Yanfeng not only occasionally asked people to provoke the issue of war horses in Fuyan City, but also bribed Pei Yanli's concubine to send Pei Yanli some mutually beneficial food from time to time.

These foods will not cause death in a short period of time, but they will damage the lungs and make the body weaker and weaker. The symptoms are similar to acclimatization.

The wonderful thing is that there is no trace of harming the body through harmless food, even the most powerful doctor can't find out why.

After years and months, today's Pei Yanli, like Pei Yanfeng, has become a sick child.

The masked leader was able to understand the cause of the disease that the doctors didn't find out, mainly because of Lian Yi.

At that time, Shu Qingwan, who was far away in Xuli City, reported back that Pei Yanli had been weak for a long time, but he couldn't find out the reason, so he might have something inside. Lian Yi thought for a long time, and finally guessed the recipe according to the thinking of modern people.

In the end, I tried to investigate in this direction, but I actually found clues.

Later, they followed this clue to investigate Pei's house, and they even found an earlier story. More recently, Pei Yanfeng even used this method on Pei Yanyi, who is currently in the limelight.

It's just that I'm afraid that Master Pei will find out that the frequency of doing it is very sparse.

It's no wonder that after Pei Yanfeng was assassinated and injured by Shu Qingwan, he dared to give most of the real power to Pei Yanyi. It turned out that he had already set up a secret trick to make Pei Yanyi die in the future.

It's just that Lian Yi and Shu Qingwan still haven't figured out something.

At that time, they sent Aunt Chun's child back to Li's family in an open and honest manner. Pei Yanfeng should have guessed that they might have got Li Shaoheng's share, but during this time, Pei Yanfeng did nothing, calmly as if discussing with Shu Qingwan, No more finding faults and no more fighting jumpsuits.

If the Shu family's position is stable now, Pei Yanfeng's holding back like this would be reasonable.

But now that the Shu family has been in decline, Shu Qingwan's rights have also been affected, and the Shu family has officially withdrawn from the ranks of imperial merchants, why is Pei Yanfeng still indifferent?

He couldn't help but shoot at Pei Yanyi, why did he leave his jumpsuit alone?

Isn't he afraid that Lian Yi will seek revenge?Or follow what Li Shaoheng gave, and find out about his past that can't be revealed?

Things have come to this point, they don't believe that Pei Yanfeng will really let the Ruan family let Lianyi go, and they will keep peace with them from then on.

But if this is not the case, what exactly is Pei Yanfeng's intention in such a performance?Or is there some unknown reason?Or, Pei Yanfeng didn't even know that Li Shaoheng had something against him?

But if he didn't know, why did he destroy all the Li family gardens in Meishan?

However, Pei Yanfeng didn't move, but they had to guard against them. Now that they knew about Pei Yanfeng's invisible past, they should collect evidence earlier, so that they could have cards to check and balance with Pei Yanfeng in the future.

Time is passing by, perhaps because several aristocratic families in the urban area have accidents this year, and the whole year in Fuyan City is not as lively as in previous years.

However, a few years later, a day of excitement for the whole city was ushered in - the imperial examination.

Those who can participate in the examination from all corners of the country to the imperial city of the city are all candidates who have already stood out from the towns. As long as they pass the examination and are on the list, they have already stepped into the officialdom.

Even if he didn't take part in the final palace test to interview the saint, he had already become the reserve army of Langlang court officials.

As the time for the examination drew closer, the streets of Fuyan City became more and more lively day by day.

The Shu family and the Ruan family didn't feel much at first, because almost all of their relatives were in business, and those who were educated were still young, so they couldn't make it to this year's exam.

But one of the people they knew was going to take part in this year's exam, which made their thoughts unavoidably assigned to the exam, and that person was Liang Sansan's husband--Pei Qingsong.

Perhaps the Liang family was afraid that when Pei Qingsong came to the city for the test, the road would be bumpy and delayed, so not long after the new year, the Liang family took advantage of Liang Sansan's return to his natal family and simply left Pei Qingsong in the city.

During the Chinese New Year, Lian Yi met Pei Qingsong once on the street, and as agreed last time, he treated Pei Qingsong to a drink, and they never met again after that.

But as Liang Sansan's adopted brother, she also had a shallow friendship with Pei Qingsong. How could she ignore Pei Qingsong when he was admitted for the exam?

So I will try this day, and Shu Qingwan, who is wearing a suit and wearing men's clothes, went to the gate of the Gongyuan together early in the morning, preparing to wait for Pei Qingsong to come, and wish Pei Qingsong the title of the gold list together, and then say some words of blessing to express our hearts.

The two stood in a conspicuous position, and after a while, the carriages of the Liang family and the Pei family arrived.

In these carriages, apart from Pei Qingsong and Liang Sansan, Liang Sansan's elder brother Liang Xiao, Pei Yanyi, Master Pei, and several handsome men who should be from the Pei family in Yuanzhen.

Lian Yi waited until the Pei and Liang families finished explaining to Pei Qingsong, then took Shu Qingwan over to greet them, and then took Pei Qingsong to talk alone.

During the exchange of greetings between Lian Yi and Pei Qingsong, Pei Qingsong glanced at Shu Qingwan intentionally or unintentionally, and Lian Yi hurriedly brought up the matter that he forgot to explain last time and said, "Actually, Brother Pei saw it. Brother Shu in Dongyun Temple is actually Miss Shu."

Regarding Shu Qingwan and Brother Shu, when Lian Yi first started, he wanted to create the effect of two people.

During the lotus tea party last summer, Lian Yi originally wanted to find some time later to mislead the two brothers of the Pei family about Shu Qingwan and Brother Shu.

But Zhong Qiqi suddenly disrupted the situation, and she fell into the water in order to cooperate, so naturally she couldn't find them to explain this matter.

After that, everything was delayed, and this matter has been delayed until now.

In fact, they wanted to hide the fact that Shu Qingwan and Brother Shu were the same person, mainly because they were afraid that Pei Qingsong and Pei Qingyuan would get too close to Pei Yanfeng, and they would accidentally reveal that Shu Qingwan and her went to Yuan Town together.

Thus exposing the relationship between Shu Qingwan and her.

But today, Pei Yanfeng already knew that the two of them had a great relationship, and there was no need for them to hide it from Pei Qingsong, lest they would have to use more lies in the future.

Pei Qingsong was not as surprised as Lian Yi imagined, and his expression was quite calm, but he glanced at Shu Qingwan meaningfully, and said with a smile: "Brother Ruan is really lucky, and he can be favored by Miss Shu."

Thinking about it, that idiot Pei Qingyuan should still keep it a secret for them.

Lian Yi hurriedly explained: "Brother Pei misunderstood, I don't have that kind of relationship with Ms. Shu, the Shu family and the Ruan family are family friends, I only regarded her as a younger sister since I was a child."

Pei Qingsong smiled faintly, not sure if he believed it or not: "So that's the case, it seems that I misunderstood."

Lian Yi didn't dare to waste Pei Qingsong's time too much, so he chatted a few more words and asked Pei Qingsong to go in quickly.

Pei Qingsong bid farewell to the Pei and Liang families, Lian Yi and Shu Qingwan, and went in with the cage.

When Pei Qingsong disappeared at the gate of the tribute courtyard, people from the Pei family and the Liang family greeted Lian Yi and got into the carriage one after another. Only Liang Sansan was still standing outside the carriage, looking at Lian Yi and Shu Qingwan.

The two had no choice but to step forward, standing at a reasonable distance from Liang Sansan, and Lian Yi took the lead in greeting with a smile: "Long time no see, Sansan, how are you doing these days?"

The last time we met was on the way to Yuanxi Town, and we only spoke a few words, so it has been half a year.

Liang Sansan suppressed a smile: "Very well, Brother Ruan, how are you doing?"

"I'm doing well." Lian Yi wanted to block Liang Sansan's more concerned words, so she put on a happy expression, "Your sister-in-law An Lian is going to give birth soon, Sansan, you are going to be an aunt. "

Liang Sansan's expression froze for a moment, then he smiled again: "That's great, remember to tell me when my sister-in-law is born, I will definitely prepare a generous gift for my nephew."

"Okay." Lian Yi waved his hand at Liang Sansan, "All the people coming and going at this door are men, you should go back quickly."

Liang Xiao in the car probably felt that he had been waiting for a long time, so he lifted the curtain of the car, nodded to Lianyi, and urged: "Sansan, it's really time to go. My brother is right, here are all men, you It's not appropriate to stay long."

Liang Sansan looked at Lianyi hesitantly, then at Shu Qingwan behind Lianyi.

After that, he still didn't say anything, just nodded to Shu Qingwan, then stepped on the carriage seat, and got into the carriage shortly.

The carriages of the Pei family and the Liang family drove away, and Lian Yi and Shu Qingwan were also planning to go back home, but before turning around, they heard someone calling "Mr. Ruan" from afar.

Lian Yi looked back and found a man waving in her direction, then squeezed through the crowd and trotted towards them.

When the man walked closer, Lian Yi discovered that he was Mr. Tan who just got married more than a month ago. Then Lian Yi slowly remembered that she and Shu Qingwan had heard of Mr. Tan when they went to attend Mr. Tan's wedding. Already a juren, it is normal to appear here now.

Lian Yi looked back, and saw Miss Tan and Mrs. Tan standing not far away. They met Shang Lian Yi and Shu Qingwan's eyes, and gave a light salute decently, which was regarded as a greeting.

Lian Yi and Shu Qingwan also hurriedly bowed down to salute, and then saluted Mr. Tan who walked in front of him.

Mr. Tan also returned a salute, and immediately continued: "It's really you, I didn't dare to recognize it from a distance."

"The young man who went in just now is Pei Qingsong from Yuanzhen?"

Lian Yi answered "Yes", and heard Young Master Tan say: "Brother Ruan actually knows Pei Qingsong? Does Brother Ruan have a relationship with the Ruan family in the city?"

Lian Yi smiled lightly, and said truthfully: "To tell the truth, Brother Tan, I am the son of the Ruan family in the urban area, Ruan Linyi."

"Brother Ruan, you are actually Ruan Linyi?" Mr. Tan said pleasantly, "I mean, Brother Ruan looks like he has an extraordinary temperament, and his face is like a crown jade. He is really not an ordinary person."

Lian Yi was a little embarrassed to be praised by Mr. Tan, and then Mr. Tan said with emotion: "Only a person like Brother Ruan can know Pei Qingsong well. For people like us, it's okay to say a few more words with him." hard."

In Lian Yi's memory, the Pei family brothers in Yuanzhen have always been easy to get along with, but Mr. Tan's words made her a little confused: "Brother Tan, why did you say that?"

"Young Master Pei is quite easy to get along with, not to mention that brother Tan can stand out among many talented young masters, he is already a very rare young talent, how can you be so arrogant?"

Lian Yi's words made Mr. Tan a little confused: "What's the matter? Brother Ruan doesn't know?"

"Know what?" Lian Yi was even more confused, she glanced at Shu Qingwan, then turned around and asked, "Brother Tan, tell me."

Mr. Tan was a little mysterious: "The one who talked to you just now is the lady from the Liang family in the urban area?"

"Yes." Lian Yi nodded, waiting for Mr. Tan's next words.

Mr. Tan answered the conversation as promised: "Didn't Pei Qingsong marry Miss Liang's family last year? The Liang family is well-connected. It is said that last year, the Liang family relied on the relationship of the late Mr. Liang to ask someone to write a recommendation letter for Pei Qingsong." .”

"A letter of recommendation?" Lian Yi didn't understand, "and then?"

Mr. Tan's eyes sparkled with a little envy: "Originally, the Pei family in Yuan Town had the Pei family in the urban area as their backer, and Pei Qingsong's talents and learning were also among the best. With the relationship with the Liang family and the recommendation from the big nephew, Pei Qingsong didn't need it at all. Compete with me, and you can go straight to the official career."

"It is said that at that time, the Ouchi read his article and admired it very much, so he wanted to recommend him to seek an official position, but later Pei Qingsong himself declined, saying that he wanted to rely on his own talents to become an official."

"How can he have the same background as us? When he passes the entrance examination and enters the palace, he will rise to the top in the future, which is beyond our reach."

Mr. Tan's words shocked Lian Yi.

I didn't expect that Pei Qingsong, who was not explained in the original web drama, turned out to be such a talented person, almost like a bug, his ability almost surpassed that of the original hero Pei Yanfeng.

Moreover, he is still so strong that he doesn't need to rely on his own ability to test himself.

Thinking of this, Lian Yi was both shocked and relieved.

Originally, she still felt very guilty towards Liang Sansan, but now that she knew that Liang Sansan married such a capable person, she would definitely have a good life in the future, and most of the shame in her heart could finally be relieved.

It's just that besides being happy, she still had a little strange feeling in her heart that she couldn't express.

As for what it is, she is also a little unpredictable. She only knows that this matter seems to be vaguely related to something, but she can't think of it for a while.

They are not too familiar with Mr. Tan, and it is not easy for her to inquire about anything, so as not to expose some information that they themselves do not know, and be used by those who want to.

So he said some auspicious words and asked Mr. Tan to go in early to prepare.

The sun and the moon rotated, and in the tense atmosphere, the test finally came to an end.

Regarding Pei Yanfeng's evidence, Lian Yi had already collected almost everything, but after waiting day after day, Pei Yanfeng still didn't move.

Counting the time when An Lian announced her "pregnancy", the day of giving birth is just around the corner.

After Lian Yi discussed with Shu Qingwan and Master Ruan, they decided to let An Lian "give birth" in a few days, and announced the news, forcing Pei Yanfeng to show his trump card to negotiate.

Now that the Ruan family has a queen, the position of the imperial merchant is stable, and the number of holy families is strong, they don't believe that Pei Yanfeng can still be as stable as Mount Tai.

They chose a pretty good day, and brought a baby boy who had been born for more than a month from the side of Ruan's house, and asked An Lian to pretend to "give birth" to the baby.

On the second day, Ruan Mansion boiled red eggs.

Lian Yi still set up a stall at the entrance of the Ruan Mansion and began to sell red eggs, fearing that the news that An Lian had given birth to the child would not reach Pei Yanfeng's ears.

The red eggs were sent out for three days in a row, and a lot of gifts were received.

Later, Shu Qingwan, who received the gift, smelled of jealousy. She tossed and pressed the jumpsuit several times in a row, wishing that the child would come out of her own stomach, but there was still no movement from Pei Yanfeng's end.

Day after day, Pei Qingsong's red list was released.

Just when they couldn't bear it anymore and decided to take down the knife hanging from their heads, find a time to have a showdown with Pei Yanfeng, and then sign a peace agreement, Pei Yanfeng posted a message to the door.

That post was just like the one that Pei Yanfeng sent to all the aristocratic families after he recovered from his illness in the original web drama, it was just an invitation to hold a poetry meeting.

Since they decided to find Pei Yanfeng to settle the matter, it is better to hit the sun than to choose a date, anyway, the day of the poetry meeting is already in front of them.

Then they waited for the day of the poetry meeting to spread out all the things and put an end to everything in the past forever.
