022 [Invitation]

Faced with the strange looks from everyone, Mrs. Qin felt quite shameless. She felt on pins and needles in this hall, so she could only excuse herself from feeling unwell and leave first.

Pei Taijun did not embarrass her, but instead gave her a few gentle words of concern and asked her to go back and have a good rest. This is what the world often calls decent. Even the old lady knew that this woman was the source of today's troubles, but she

She won't expose her face to face and fall out. As for whether she will do anything to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion in the future, it is unknown.

I paid my respects to Shou, went to the banquet, and watched a big play. People began to leave one after another, and the Ding'an Hall gradually became quiet.

Pei Yue felt tired at this time. From morning to now, he had hardly stopped for a moment, wandering among various characters, observing them, analyzing them, and always being careful to deal with the cold arrows shot from the dark, which was extremely tiring.

"Ancestor, if there are no other instructions, my grandson will go down first." He said with a salute.

Before Taijun Pei could speak, he heard a man sitting next to him say: "Third Young Master, please wait for a moment."

Pei Yue raised his eyes and saw a middle-aged woman with a kind smile, but he couldn't remember her identity for a moment. After all, there were quite a lot of people sitting in the hall today, and they were all Dukes and Marquises, so it was extremely difficult.

Easy to confuse.

Seeing his dazed look, Pei Taijun smiled softly and said, "This is the wife of Hou Guliang in Guangping. In terms of etiquette, you have to call her aunt."

Guliang?

Pei Yue's eyes flashed with the look of that strong man with a straightforward and heroic temperament.

He had a very good impression of Gu Liang. Looking at the friendly face of this middle-aged woman, he felt a sense of intimacy in his heart and said with a sincere smile: "My nephew has met my aunt."

Mrs. Zhao, the Marquis of Guangping, became more and more fond of her. She first gave a few words of gentle encouragement, and then said to Taijun Pei: "Madam, there is something that this junior does not know how to say. I am really embarrassed."

Taijun Pei guessed in his mind and said with a smile: "Madam, why do you need to see outsiders? Just tell me what you have to say. You and I don't need to be outsiders."

These words brought up another past incident. At that time, Gu Liang's father Gu Hao was involved in a major case, and he was sentenced to death by Emperor Zhongzong. If Pei Yuan, the Duke of Dingguo, had not personally entered the palace to plead for mercy, he would have had his family confiscated and exterminated.

In the past few years, Gu Liang has risen in the army. He is not polite to big bosses like Lu Min, but he has great respect for Duke Dingguo. Today, on Taijun Pei's birthday, he even brought his wife and daughter to pay homage to him, which can be said to be full of sincerity.

Mrs. Zhao was naturally aware of this past incident, and became more and more respectful to Mrs. Pei. She said in a very low voice: "Mrs. Tai also knows that my Marquis has a strange temper. He just sent someone to tell me and asked me to ask for a favor from Mrs. Tai."

.”

She was very respectful, but Taijun Pei would not really regard it as an ordinary imperial decree. After all, Gu Liang's status in today's hearts was different, and even the two military planes on the left and right might not be able to surpass him, so he smiled kindly and said: "His temperament

I know that I am not the kind of person who is crazy and deceitful. Madam, it doesn't matter."

Zhao said with a smile: "The Marquis said that he would like to invite the three young masters in the house to visit his humble residence. In two days, he will go to the camp to train troops. He will be away for more than half a year. I'm afraid he won't have time during the year."

Taijun Pei hesitated slightly.

This matter is not a big deal, but Pei Rong is still here, how can there be any reason to invite only his son but not me? After all, it is inappropriate to spread the word.

Pei Yue and the other three people in the hall had different expressions. He had a good impression of the middle-aged uncle, so he didn't think deeply about it for a while, but the timing was not right. Pei Yun had a faint light in his eyes, obviously he was thinking about it.

Thinking about Gu Liang's true intention. As for Pei Cheng, his face was a little bitter. It was not that he hated Gu Liang, but he was afraid from the bottom of his heart.

If we say that the person in Kyoto who is the most feared by the generals and disciples, Gu Liang can truly be ranked first. This marquis is very aggressive, and if he catches him in the wrong place, he will really get a severe beating.

In Xinuan Pavilion, the girl who had repeatedly recited Pei Yue's words suddenly turned red.

Most of the girls here knew each other, and a familiar one came over and whispered, "Sister Zhen'er, is this your idea?"

Gu Zhen quickly shook her head and denied: "Sister, what are you talking about? I don't know about it."

She was very thin-skinned, and when the girl saw this, she couldn't continue teasing her, so she had to let her go and joke with others.

Gu Zhen felt a fever on her face. She quietly took a look at Pei Ning who had returned to the Xinuan Pavilion. Seeing that she didn't seem to notice him, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then she felt a little funny and didn't understand what she was being shy about.

, and my father is always so imprudent, how can he invite people to a banquet for no reason? He is also made fun of, which is really helpless. I have to persuade him after I go home.

In the main hall, Mrs. Zhao felt a little embarrassed when she saw Mr. Pei's hesitation. She forced a smile and said: "Madam, this junior also knows that this matter is unreasonable. I will make it clear to him when I get back, so as not to be a bad guest when I come to pay my birthday."

.”

Pei Taijun shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not that serious, it doesn't matter, this matter..."

Seeing that the old lady was about to agree, Pei Yue had to step forward and said: "Old ancestor, let the eldest brother and the second brother go. Here is my grandson. I will personally apologize to Lord Gu later."

Pei Cheng looked at him angrily, "You're the third child, you don't want to go but let me go instead, do you want me to be beaten?"

Taijun Pei saw the obvious disappointment in Zhao's eyes, and he understood clearly in his heart that the person Guangping Marquis really wanted to invite, aside from Pei Rong, even Pei Cheng and Pei Yun, was incidental to Pei Yue!

But it was difficult to say these words openly, so he asked: "Why is this?"

Pei Yue said softly: "Ancestor, my grandson has to prepare all kinds of things to go to Zhuangzi. Moreover, my grandson just said that he will stay behind closed doors for three years to pray for our ancestors. How can he not keep his promise? If he had just promised

Just as you promised, you turned around and went to the banquet, and by doing this, where did you leave your ancestors?"

Then he said to Mrs. Zhao: "Madam, please forgive me for not being able to keep the appointment. I hope you will forgive me for any offence."

When the word "filial piety" was raised, what could Mrs. Zhao say? She was an honest person, and at this moment, she even concealed her look of disappointment. Her face was full of joy and appreciation, and she nodded and said: "Good boy, your uncle is very unconventional.

It has nothing to do with you, I will tell him later."

It was difficult for Pei Yue to answer these words, so he stood with his head bowed and said nothing.

Seeing that the third child refused to go, Pei Cheng quickly said: "Old ancestor, my grandson will also be praying for you in the house these days, and he cannot leave the house."

At this point, what else could Zhao say? The invitation had to be given up.

In the Xinuan Pavilion, Gu Zhen still lowered her head and clasped her white hands together. When she heard Pei Yue speak, she suddenly felt curious. She wondered what the young man looked like and whether he had the same calm demeanor.

Is it consistent? I also think about how he can say such reasonable things at such a young age. It shows that it is really not easy to go through countless hardships.

However, when she heard Pei Yue's polite refusal soon, the girl was a little disappointed, but the curiosity in her heart gradually grew stronger like a green seedling in spring.
