Chapter 227 Civil chaos
She is not angry anymore.
She now wants to kill Pei Qingyan.
Or gouge out his eyes and mute his mouth.
Pei Qingyan seemed to have thought of something and said with a smile: "By the way, I remember that you also loved wearing red clothes at that time. You even gave each of us a pair of red pants. Unfortunately, I don't like wearing them, but King Qi does. I think you two have the same preferences. You can ask him out to play some other time when you are free and see if he still remembers it."
"you you……"
Danyang's eyes were red and he almost cried in anger.
Pei Qingyan shook his head.
"My concentration is not good. Why didn't I notice you were so crying when you were a kid?"
"Pei Qingyan, I will never pay attention to you again!"
After Princess Danyang said this, she picked up her skirt and ran away.
A group of maids and servants were at a loss when they saw this. In the end, they could only apologize to Pei Qingyan and leave in a hurry.
The smile on Pei Qingyan's face turned cold and he stood there.
Not far away, the prince came over, rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile: "Old Pei, you can't do this, how can you do this to girls? Although Princess Danyang was naughty when she was a child, she has indeed grown into a woman now. You are such a beautiful woman, you are lucky that she likes you, you should not bring up the scandalous things she did when she was a child and deliberately make her angry."
Pei Qingyan glanced sideways at the prince and responded unceremoniously, "Do you want this blessing for you? Cousin and cousin, they are a perfect match. This saves the Queen and Auntie from worrying about Danyang's marriage."
The prince paused and smiled.
"That's all, I shouldn't be meddlesome and cause trouble. How about it, your sweetheart is gone?"
"Ah."
Pei Qingyan hummed.
The prince put his arms around his shoulders and whispered: "Her identity is destined to prevent her from marrying into the royal family. Aren't you afraid that delaying her like this will delay her?"
Pei Qingyan sneered.
"What kind of royal am I? My surname is Pei, not Lin."
The prince frowned.
"You can just say this to me, but don't let my father hear it. My father has always treated you as his own son. If you say this, it will make him worry."
Pei Qingyan pursed his lips and stopped talking.
The prince also knew what he was thinking, and sighed: "The north is getting more and more chaotic."
Pei Qingyan also frowned.
The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder to the tea pavilion next to them.
After entering the tea pavilion, someone brought tea first. The prince stepped back and asked people to guard the entrance. Then he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Pei Qingyan, "Take a look."
Pei Qingyan took it and took a look, his face changed slightly.
"Did the Li family collude with the Northern Enemy?"
The prince sneered, "Yes, then Li He would have rebelled sooner rather than later, but he rebelled at this time. I originally suspected that although he was stationed in the important border town, he did not have much military power in his hands. He only had three soldiers in total. About ten thousand, haha, he dares to rebel with thirty thousand border guards. On his left is Tai Shi Ji, who has fifty thousand troops and horses, and on his right is the emperor's uncle Lin Yuan, who has seventy thousand troops and horses. If there is a two-phase encirclement and suppression, There must be no trace of his body, but he did the opposite, nominally to avenge his brother, but in reality who knows?"
"It wasn't until my spies found out this news that I knew that he had colluded with the Northern Enemy for a long time. As long as the Northern Enemy harassed Tai Shiji and the Seventh Emperor Uncle from the east and west respectively, they would not be able to spare the energy to encircle Hengzhou. , then under his management, Hengzhou can be directly included in the territory of the northern enemy like an iron barrel. Alas, we are raising tigers for trouble."
Pei Qingyan's brows knitted deeper and deeper, but never relaxed.
After a while, he said: "Youzhou still has 20 troops."
The prince waved his hand.
"The soldiers and the people are in chaos. The 20 soldiers and horses have been divided into four groups and gone to the civilians."
Pei Qingyan was surprised.
As the leader of the Embroidery Department, he didn't know such important information.
Although the Department of Embroidery and Clothes is not responsible for the military aspect, it stands to reason that both inside and outside the court are integrated, and the emperor should not hide such a big move from him.
Pei Qingyan was silent.
The prince glanced at him, as if guessing his thoughts, and said: "The emperor's art is to weigh the pros and cons. Everyone is just a pawn in the power game. It will be the same regardless of who sits in this position. Don't mind. "
Pei Qingyan tightened his lips.
After a while, he said: "The Embroidery Department is the Emperor's Embroidery Department. Everything we do is based on the Emperor's will. If the Emperor wants us to know, we will investigate and find out. If the Emperor doesn't want us to know, I will naturally do the same." It won’t be too much trouble.”
The prince patted him on the shoulder.
"That's the right way to think."
The two of them drank tea around the fire and talked for a long time before they stopped.
After the show, Pei Qingyan returned to the Embroidery Department.
There was no expression on his face, but he exuded a gloomy and violent aura. Anyone who looked at him would know that the commander was in a bad mood today, so don't get into trouble with him.
Qingxuan left the city to see Song Anning off, and now his most trusted confidant in the company is Wu Que.
Pei Qingyan did not call Wuque over, but walked straight into his study.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the door of the study, he saw a figure running past the other party.
He frowned and immediately shouted: "Stop."
The other party was stunned, as if he had just seen him, and hurriedly ran over with respect and fear, and saluted him, "Commander, please forgive me for my poor eyesight. I didn't pay attention just now. Are you back?"
Pei Qingyan didn't answer him and looked directly at the thing in his hand.
"what is this?"
The man rolled his eyes and wanted to make a joke, but in the face of the cold and solemn Pei Qingyan, he did not dare to lie. He could only say truthfully: "These are the files that the emperor wants. They are all recent. I was ordered to send them in." Go to the palace."
Pei Qingyan's brows furrowed deeper.
He didn't ask the emperor why he didn't go to him directly when he wanted the files, but went to the Embroidery Department through other orders.
Because he had said that the Embroidery Department belonged to the emperor, and he actually had no control over what the emperor wanted to do.
Although, in fact, the company was founded by himself, and he spent a lot of effort to manage it over the years.
He had always felt arrogant, and the Embroidery Department was his one-stop shop.
But the reality clearly told him that it was not.
Pei Qingyan asked: "What does the emperor want these for?"
The officer smiled and said bitterly: "I don't know about this little one. He only follows orders and doesn't dare to interfere with anything else."
Pei Qingyan was silent.
After a while, he waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
"Yes."
After the man left, he went straight into the study.
Although he didn't look for Wu Que, Wu Que still came over after lunch when he heard that Pei Qingyan was in the office.
"grown ups."
Pei Qingyan raised her eyes at him and motioned for him to close the study door.
"Sir, there is news from Xuanhu Hall today, saying that there is something unusual in our branch hall in Youzhou. It is said that the news is secretly communicated with the capital, but my subordinates have not received the news from there. I don’t know if your Excellency accepts it. Has it arrived? Or did my subordinates miss it? I asked Qingxuan before, but he didn't receive it either."
