Pei Yue did not get angry and said calmly: "Madam, there are no outsiders here, and I am too lazy to beat around the bush. This is not very kind of you."

Taijun Pei said a little unnaturally: "What do you mean by this?"

Pei Yue said: "I came to deal with this matter today. First of all, it must be because of my eldest sister. This is the most important reason. If it were not her but someone else who wanted to marry King Lu, I would not take action at all. Secondly, the grievances of the year cannot be ignored.

Ti, please ask Mr. Xi to teach me, I have always kept this friendship in my heart, so I don’t want to see the trees in Dingguo Mansion fall down and the hozens scattered."

In fact, there was another reason that he kept hidden in his heart. On the island in the middle of the lake in Lingzhou, Pei Zhen gave him a token. Regardless of whether he would use it in the future, it was a personal favor after all.

Pei Taijun was surprised and said: "I didn't expect that the old lady had another contribution."

Pei Yue really admired these housewives. Their emotional transformation was almost textbook level. There was no sluggishness or stiffness at all. One moment they were tit for tat, and the next second they could turn into spring breeze.

However, he did not intend to let go. When necessary, pulling Pei Cheng over and promising to take care of Dingguo Mansion were two completely different concepts. Moreover, he was not insane. Even taking care of the beggars on the street was better than taking care of Pei Rong and Li

This kind of person.

After a moment of silence, he slowly said: "Mrs. Tai, the grievances between me and Dingguo Mansion have been cleared. From now on, there will be a personal brother-sister relationship between me and the eldest sister. I still say the same thing, as long as Pei Rong and Pei Rong

If Yun doesn't tease me in the future, I will never interfere in Ding Guofu's family affairs. But if they don't care about life and death, I will definitely not be merciful anymore."

He raised his head, his eyes as sharp as swords, and said word by word: "Don't try to threaten me with my eldest sister's safety. I only have her as a relative. If I am forced into a desperate situation, I will definitely bring many people to be buried with me."

Hearing him speak so decisively, Pei Taijun felt naturally uncomfortable, but she was stronger than Pei Rong and Li after all.

Pei Taijun did not engage in a verbal argument, but said with a slight worry: "Since your eldest sister is unwilling, I will not force her, but the imperial concubine has already let it go. How should we deal with this?"

Pei Yue glanced at Wen Yu, who was standing quietly, and said calmly: "I will go to your majesty to plead for mercy. I believe your majesty can understand my difficulties."

"That's all, since you said so, I don't care."

Pei Taijun waved her hands, her heart suddenly felt extremely tired. If Pei Yue made trouble like this a few more times, she didn't know how many days she would have left to live.

Seeing that Pei Yue was planning to leave, Pei Ning said, "Third brother, can you come and sit at my place for a while?"

Pei Yue smiled softly, nodded and said, "Okay."

For the servants in the mansion, the movements in the main hall today were a bit scary. First, Pei Yongnian, the chief butler, was beaten to the point where he was left with only one breath left. Then, Mrs. Li angrily returned to her courtyard to throw things and lose her temper. Finally, she saw

The second young master was carried out covered in blood. The housekeepers and ladies hurriedly called for the doctor, and the whole thing became a mess.

This is because Pei Yue had left his soldiers in the front yard before, otherwise people who didn't know better would have thought that the emperor had ordered the house to be ransacked.

Walking in the picturesque inner palace of the Duke's Mansion, Pei Yue watched calmly. Pei Ning's eyes next to him always stayed on him and said happily: "I have grown taller and stronger, and I look much better than in previous years."

.”

As he spoke, his eyes became a little red again.

Pei Yue couldn't help laughing and said: "Sister, when people see this, they think I'm bullying you."

He knew that Pei Ning loved to cry. During this time, he was forced to get married by a large family, and he pretended to be nonchalant. He probably cried countless times during the night. Thinking of this, he felt a little distressed, so he smiled and said: "Cry if you want to. I don’t care what other people think, now I’m a dead pig and I’m not afraid of boiling water.”

Pei Ning raised her hand to slap him, but when it fell, she smoothed the wrinkles of his clothes on his shoulders and said angrily: "How could you say that about yourself?"

"Of course you don't have to hide in front of my sister. When dealing with those old guys, you have to make three detours in one sentence, not to mention how tired you are." Pei Yue couldn't help complaining.

Peining said distressedly: "It's really hard for you. Of course you can say whatever you want here. It's a pity that you are so busy now and don't have much time to come to my place to talk."

Pei Yue blinked and said: "Sister, why don't you move to my place? Don't worry about getting out of the cabinet. Your brother is rich now. I will get you a dowry of 640 kilograms by then. The first one will be in Yongzhou, and the second one will be paid. Didn’t leave home.”

Peining smiled softly and said, "No nonsense."

Pei Yue curled his lips and said: "I'm not talking nonsense. Don't believe what the old lady said so nicely. She'll give you everything. That's just coaxing a child. She will definitely leave all her gold and silver to the two brothers, and she will give them to you till death." She is very stingy to prepare a dowry worth twelve tons."

Peining shook his head and said, "Third brother, I don't plan to get married."

Pei Yue heard that her words were not an excuse, but he could understand her current mood, so he changed the topic and said: "Sister, are you still in the house with good words?"

"Well, it's hard for you to still remember her."

"How could I forget? If you hadn't asked her to bring me a snack, I wouldn't have had the strength to break into Mingyue Pavilion."

Both of them felt a little sad, and before long, Qingfeng Garden was already in sight.

A maid stood in front of the door and stood on tiptoe, looking around. Who else could she be if she didn't have a good advice? After seeing the two figures, a joyful smile bloomed on her face, she ran forward and saluted seriously: "My maid, give it to the Marquis." Please greet me."

"Excuse me. Good advice, how old are you this year?" Pei Yue asked with a smile.

Liang Yan was stunned for a moment, and then replied with some confusion: "Seventeen."

Pei Yue touched his chin and said, "You are actually the same age as me, are you married?"

One sentence made the good words blush. She held the corner of her clothes and said shyly: "Third Young Master!"

Pei Ning patted his shoulder lightly and couldn't help laughing: "Don't bully her."

Pei Yue laughed a few times and then walked into Qingfeng Garden.

The scenery here is still the same as before, with poles of green bamboo swaying gently in the spring breeze, and a gravel-strewn path in the middle, like a winding path leading to a quiet place.

The furnishings in the room were in line with the standards of the Duke's Mansion, but Pei Yue had a sharp eye and saw a few things that only a woman to be married would prepare, and placed them on the shelves of Duobaoge.

Pei Ning glanced at Liangyan with a complicated expression, and the latter quickly went to pack it away. She sighed softly: "My mother prepared those things."

"She can't wait." Pei Yue said in a bad tone, but he did not continue. After all, Li was Pei Ning's biological mother, and there was no need for him to criticize her in front of Pei Ning.

After the two sat down, Liangyan seemed particularly excited. He led several maids to pour tea and serve various snacks. He was busy like a butterfly in a flower, and his whole person was filled with excitement and joy that a blind person could feel.

Pei Yue fell silent.

Of course he knew why. With Pei Ning's gentle and kind temperament, she would probably only confide her sad things to Liangyan, the personal maid who had been with her since she was a child. Now that the matter has been temporarily resolved, Liangyan's behavior is normal.

Pei Ning looked steadily at Pei Yue's face and said softly: "Third brother, I'm very happy that you can come. Don't blame yourself for this. In fact, I said to go find you, but I stopped him."

Pei Yue asked puzzledly: "Why?"

Pei Ning shook his head slightly and said sadly: "Third brother, you always say how good I was to you, but I have never thought about it this way. I didn't help you get rid of that vicious nanny, and I couldn't stop my mother from killing you.

You were locked up in that small room. You suffered

I was beaten so many times and was belittled, insulted and scolded, but I didn't do anything. I just asked the maid to bring you some food, and sometimes I found opportunities to say a few nice words to you. Maybe this would be of some help to you, but it didn't help.

Solve the problem fundamentally."

She lowered her head slightly, clenched her hands unconsciously, and said with difficulty: "The Pei family did that to you, but you repeatedly chose to keep your hands because of me. Compared with the things you do for me now, those things back then were really insignificant.

, I really can’t feel at ease every time I think of your hardships over the years.”

Pei Yue looked at her blankly.

Peining was silent for a moment, raised his head and said seriously: "I said not to get married just now. This was not a joke. People can't avoid the complicated things in life. I don't want to lose my third brother, so I have to end that possibility.

, others will not use me to plot against you in the future, I don’t want to see you fall into a situation where you need to make a choice.”

"Sister——" Pei Yue was confused.

Pei Ning interrupted him for the first time and said gently but firmly: "Actually, it's good not to marry. I don't have to worry about food and clothing in the house, and I have a majestic third brother to protect me from wind and rain. I don't know.

How many people would envy me?"
