Although his words were sincere, Emperor Kaiping's expression did not soften, because these words were not good for Liu Xian no matter how he heard them.

Pei Yue continued: "Your Majesty, I believe that King Lu doesn't know about it, because if he wants my property, why bother? Call me to the palace, and either give him a good word or coerce him. I have to think about it.

I don’t have the guts to refuse. It’s obviously a very important thing

For such a simple matter, why did King Lu first let Qibao Pavilion make so many moves and leave countless clues, and finally have to show up in person? I don’t know King Lu, but His Majesty is wise and powerful, and the prince he teaches will never be

It’s so superficial.”

Luo Ting let out a sigh of relief. This boy grew up much faster than he expected.

Jian Rong would not believe Pei Yue's words easily. He shook his head slightly and said, "Pei Yue, these are just your speculations."

Pei Yue retorted calmly: "Master Jian, King Lu did invite me to a banquet, but he did not threaten me during the banquet. He was just worried that I would not be able to support myself, so he wanted to help me solve the problem. And I said at that time

It took five days to think about it, but he didn’t agree immediately, so King Lu agreed. This matter is actually not as complicated as you think. King Lu was deceived, but it was just a moment of negligence."

Jian Rong looked at his clear eyes and suddenly understood the deep meaning that the young man wanted to express.

He thought of his wife, children and elderly parents at home, and finally did not continue to be tough.

Emperor Kaiping didn't seem to notice this detail, and just asked in a deep voice: "Who was Liu Xian deceived by?"

Pei Yue replied: "Xu Song, the owner of Qibao Pavilion, is the brother of Princess Lu. In recent years, he has used the name of King Lu to make trouble. Not only did he make money crazily, but he also forced the owner of Qibao Pavilion to cede his shares, gradually cannibalizing other people's property.

After Ye Chen's Xiangyun Company appeared, he was jealous of the interests of honeycomb briquettes, so naturally he wanted to find a way to take it away. These days, he designed to frame Chen's property, and finally induced King Lu to come forward, which can be said to be extremely vicious. "

A long silence.

Pei Yue cautiously raised his eyes and looked upward.

Emperor Kaiping's face was livid, and he squeezed out a few words through his teeth: "A businessman doesn't know whether to live or die!"

The anger of an ordinary man can still cause blood to splash five steps, let alone the emperor of a country?

As the emperor spoke these words, murderous intent filled his face, Xu Song's fate was sealed.

The hall seemed to be suddenly covered with a layer of frost, but to Pei Yue, it was as warm and comfortable as the spring breeze.

Now, he can finally relax.

According to the plan discussed with Mr. Xi before, when entering the court today, the problem of the Ministry of Revenue must be solved first, at least to prove that Xiangyun Company has no problems, so that it can remain invincible. The next step is to use the Sixth Prince's people to impeach the general.

The prince, after stepping on the ambitious and talented prince, finally took advantage of the emperor's reluctance to deal with the eldest prince and put all the blame on Xu Song.

If the eldest prince is not involved, the emperor may not take this matter seriously, and will probably give his eldest son some face. In the end, the big problem may be reduced to a trivial matter. As the saying goes, if you kill a snake, you will be harmed by it. If you want to take action, you must hit the opponent's target accurately.

Seven inches.

To teach Sun Dacheng, the Minister of Household Affairs, to retaliate against the eldest prince's insult at the Bamboo Tower that day, and to completely solve the problem of Qibao Pavilion, this is the overall plan that Pei Yue told Ye Qi.

Although some changes occurred in the middle, and Jian Rong's sudden attack caused some twists and turns, fortunately, it did not deviate from the preset track in the end.

As for King Liu Xian of Lu, no matter what, he had a problem with his subordinates being lax in understanding people, and he had to bear the blame in a short time.

Of course, Emperor Kaiping would not simply listen to Pei Yue's words. He looked to the side and said, "Shen Aiqing."

"Your Majesty, I'm here." Shen Moyun responded and came out of the queue, bowing to salute.

Emperor Kaiping said categorically: "Check out this Qibao Pavilion for me, and no one who commits any crime will be spared!"

"I obey the order." Silent Cloud paused slightly and said with complicated eyes: "Your Majesty, I have actually been investigating for some time."

Emperor Kaiping looked at him suspiciously.

Almost all the important ministers immediately pricked up their ears, because Master Shen would only open his mouth, and when he did, it would often be a shocking event.

Silent Cloud said calmly: "Your Majesty, those bandits in the Hengduan Mountains were wreaking havoc last year. At that time, I suspected that there was an insider in the capital. After the bandits were destroyed, Pei Yue, the son of Zhongshan, gave me some evidence, and all the relevant people were brought to justice. Those who confessed, including Pei Rong of Dingguo Mansion. However, there were only four people in total that time, and judging from all aspects, they could not give the thief enough support. After reporting to Your Majesty, Taige has been secretly investigating this matter."

Emperor Kaiping asked: "Have you found it?"

Silent Cloud nodded slightly and said respectfully: "Tai Ge has found out that Qibao Pavilion used the convenience of caravans to pass through the pass at will and the inspection was not strict, to deliver food and grass to the thieves in the Hengduan Mountains three times."

The ministers were in an uproar, and the nobles were even more furious. You must know that Jingying paid a huge price to exterminate those thieves, and Xiying suffered heavy casualties. If Pei Yue had not put aside his personal grudge with Zhenyuan Bo Changsi, what would have happened to the soldiers of Xiying It’s hard to say how many people could survive Chen Xizhi’s ambush.

Immediately there was a cry of fighting and killing in the hall, and Yushi Jiuyi shouted repeatedly to suppress the angry crowd.

Pei Yue did not react at all, because the letter sent by Shen Danmo before entering the palace had already hinted at this matter, and seemed to want to appease him. At this moment, the fate of Qibao Pavilion was irreversible, and Pei Yue carefully recalled the letter I always felt like something was wrong with the content of the letter.

Emperor Kaiping said coldly: "Does Qibao Pavilion do such a thing and have anything to do with Liu Xian?"

Silent Cloud lowered his head slightly, with a flash of unknown regret in his eyes, and replied: "Your Majesty, Taige has not found out that this matter is related to King Lu. It seems that Xu Song did it alone."

It was Shi Ye's fate. He originally didn't want to report this matter right now, but since it had already involved Qibao Pavilion and the emperor ordered him to take action, he couldn't wait any longer. Silent Cloud knew very well that the emperor still had at least a group of people. , Taishitai Pavilion cannot absolutely cover the sky with one hand.

But now that it had been pointed out, he no longer covered up for some people, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, Qibao Pavilion uses King Lu's name to gain convenience, but this alone cannot obtain food and grass that can feed thousands of bandits. The pavilion has found out the origin of those grains and grass."

Although he did not tell who was helping Qibao Pavilion, Pei Yue had already guessed the answer.

"Bang!"

In the queue of civil servants on the left, a fat body suddenly fell to the ground, and the whole person had fainted.

It was Sun Dacheng, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Facing Emperor Kaiping's angry gaze, Silent Cloud said calmly: "Your Majesty, Sun Shangshu has never been a thief. He only accepted a huge amount of silver from Qibao Pavilion and used various means to steal and sell several large warehouses near the capital. forage."

"Needless to say!" Emperor Kaiping waved his hand suddenly and said angrily: "Luo Ting!"

"I'm here."

"You will be in charge of this matter. The three judicial departments will discuss it together and we will pursue it to the end. We will never let you off lightly!"

"I accept the decree."

Sun Dacheng, who had just woken up, was frightened when he heard these words. He crawled forward with all his strength and shouted: "Your Majesty, I am wronged! I have my own reasons for suffering!"

Emperor Kaiping didn't even look at him. He stood up and walked to the back hall, leaving the last words at the same time: "The King of Lu was not strict with his Majesty, which was unbecoming of a prince. He was ordered to shut up for half a year and reflect on himself. He was not allowed to go out without permission!"

The eunuch shouted: "Retreat!"

Leave a piece of chicken feathers on the ground.

Pei Yue sneered in his heart, it would be nice to have an emperor father who protects his son. Others either beheaded him or ransacked his house. This eldest prince was just studying behind closed doors in the magnificent palace. No wonder there are so many people who want to be emperors in the history books. many.

However, he did not feel sorry for himself because of this. He was the biggest winner in today's court meeting.

Putting aside Sun Dacheng, who was unlucky because of Silent Cloud's sudden attack, Qibao Pavilion has collapsed. From then on, Xiangyun Company can develop smoothly in Kyoto. The relationship between him and Luo Ting has become more stable. With the spread of honeycomb coal in Daliang territory, , this young and powerful ruler will definitely become a powerful assistant to him.

After letting out a breath of turbid breath, Pei Yue turned around and looked outside the hall. The sun was shining brightly, and it was autumn again.
