Chapter 154 The Queen of Destiny

At the residence of the Duke of Anyi County, Chang'an, Pei Wang helped Pei Ju to the front hall tremblingly. Yu Xi, who had been waiting outside for a long time, quickly met him.

Yu Xi lifted up his robe, knelt in front of Pei Ju and said, "After receiving the work, Yu Xi, and bow to his mentor."

Pei Ju looked at Yu Xi who was kneeling in front of her, her eyes full of coldness.

Yu Xi is Yu Shiji's second son.

In the 14th year of Daye, Yu Wen and the king killed the throne, and Yu Shiji was killed with Yang Guang. However, because Yu Xi was inferior, he did not attract Yu Wenji's attention.

Later, Yu Xi defected to Pei Ju. For Yu Jishi's sake, Pei Ju, who was the commander of the Eastern Palace Office, accepted Yu Xi as the student.

Even Pei Ju didn't expect that Yu Xi would actually be with those people.

Pei Ju also had very strong connections and resources in the court. After Li Jiancheng ascended the throne, all the ministers of the Eastern Palace were promoted. Pei Ju, one of the three young men in the Eastern Palace, was also promoted to the third rank of Kaifu Yitong Sansi (from the first rank), becoming the Shizhong who replaced Xiao Shiwen and the Minister of the Left Ministries.

Although Pei Ju did not become one of the six major prime ministers, everyone in the world understood that Li Jiancheng did not let Pei Ju enter the Political Affairs Hall because he did not trust him, but because he was afraid that he would be too hard.

As the six prime ministers, they need to be on duty at the Political Affairs Hall every day and handle daily trivial matters on behalf of the emperor. Pei Ju is older than Pei Ji and can't stand it at all.

At this time, Pei Ju's face had a cold look: "I can't be your teacher, and I don't dare to have a student like you. Doctor Yu should go back!"

Pei Wang helped Pei Ju and returned to the inner hall.

Yu Xi looked at Pei Ju's back with a embarrassed look on his face.

However, he didn't dare to get up.

Now, the only one who can save him in the entire court is Pei Ju.

Now Liu Zhenghui has become a joke. His biological son was killed and Chen Ying was guilty of being guilty. However, Liu Zhenghui was ordered to think behind closed doors for three months and be fined one year for his son because he was abusing his slave.

Although Liu Zheng would care whether Liu Zheng would care about his annual salary, as the Minister of Justice, he was kept in the door for three months, which was equivalent to being temporarily suspended, and the result was quite serious.

Although Liu Zhenghui was suspended, the court could not fail to operate because of Liu Zhenghui's suspension. He had to mention a new secretary.

As long as the unspoken rules of the officialdom are raised, how can they be reduced without any serious mistakes?

Nowadays, the official positions are all about one carrot and one pit. After Liu Zhenghui was closed for three months, the Ministry of Justice will definitely not have his place. As Liu Zhenghui's confidant, he was originally mixed up with Zheng Rentai and did not wipe his shit clean.

Now that he is implicated by Liu Zhenghui, his career is definitely over. Rumor has it that Chen Ying's confidant Xu Jingzonghui was promoted to the Minister of Justice. As long as Xu Jingzong takes office, the first thing he must do is to speak out with him.

At this time, if Pei Ju is out of the matter, he will not only maintain his official position, but whether he can survive or not is the same.

...

Pei Wang was originally Pei Ju's house filling, and after taking over Yu Xi's benefits, he naturally helped Yu Xi to make it easy.

She held Pei Ju on the soft couch in the inner hall and sat down slowly.

While carefully looking at Pei Ju's face, he said, "Honey, calm down. In the court, the situation is clear. It is not Yu Xi who wants to kill Chen Ying, but Liu Zhenghui..."

Pei Ju didn't even look at her wife. Wang's eyes were very shallow, but she was very brave. Under her own banner, she caused trouble. She dared to collect any money and take any dirty work.

Pei Ju sneered: I hope to be the best and make great achievements. Can such a person become a doctor in the Ministry of Justice? He acted so recklessly and pointed out that he would be a horse. Once a bad thing happened, he would not only implicate his fellow Hedong, but also me, but I am afraid he would have a good end."

Since Pei Ji's death, Pei Ju has become a blessing in disguise.

Not only was he promoted to the first rank, he also became the head of the Pei family in Hedong. Even the entire Hedong clan family relied on Pei Ju's breath to act.

Facing such a situation, Pei Ju was naturally happy, but he came too late. If he had reached this position ten years ago, he would wake up in a dream.

But it's too late now, he's about to make a move.

Although Pei Wang did not have a big picture and the heart of the whole country, he knew that being an official was like doing business and one must pay attention to integrity.

If you don’t do anything after taking Yu Xi’s money, you may not be able to find a job in the future.

Pei Wang continued: "Doctor Yu must have known his mistake here. Maybe there is something unavoidable. Should my father-in-law listen to what he said?"

Pei Ju said coldly: "I'm hungry, I'll have dinner."

Others have grown up and have already seen the problem.

As the saying goes, seeing through but not saying it out can be considered as giving Wang a face. After all, he has taken care of himself over the years, and he has worked hard without credit. Fortunately, Pei Wang has not yet touched his bottom line.

Pei Wang sighed helplessly.

Several servants from Pei's mansion walked into the back hall from the front hall without looking sideways.

Looking at the servants holding dishes, Yu Xi swallowed with difficulty.

He reached out to touch his empty belly, his face full of depression.

Yu Xi looked at the servants from Pei Mansion in the distance, hurriedly raised his back, his face calm and unmoved.

The chopsticks Gu Tang picked up a piece of rabbit meat and sent it to the bowl in front of Pei Ju.

"My husband is old and cannot eat so vegetarian food. He must have more energy."

Pei Ju's trembling hands were holding rabbit flesh and putting them into his mouth.

He slowly closed his eyes and said with emotion: "Life is rare in sixty years. I am already eighty-seven. Every day I live, I earn money!"

Pei Wang's eyes were swaying in tears and sighed, "I have been with my husband for eleven years..."

For the eleven years, Wang was basically a widow. The key is that she didn't dare to steal fish and could only endure it.

Pei Ju trembled and gently patted Wang's hand and said, "You have suffered all these years."

Wang shook his head and said, "I won't be hard for you to follow my husband!"

Pei Ju shook his head: "We Confucians, we are righteous and follow the right path. I am old and can't protect you...How long? While I am still alive, I will find a backer for you!"

Pei Ju's youngest daughter was born in the first year of Wude.

Now this year, I am just thirteen years old (ancient women were two years old)

As Pei Ju's legitimate daughter, she could find a family of equal status as her wife.

However, Pei Ju didn't want to find aristocratic families.

It can be seen that Li Jiancheng is a strong-willed person. Before he and the clan decided to win or lose, the clan had been sitting on a volcano and could be burned to ashes at any time.

But Chen Ying is different. Li Jiancheng's protection for him has penetrated into his bones. The most important thing about Chen Ying is that he is very young.

Wei Zheng is fifty-three.

Fang Xuanling is fifty-four.

Wang Gui is even bigger, sixty-three.

Even though Wei Ting is younger, he is already forty-two years old.

And Chen Ying was thirty-five years old.

This is Chen Ying’s biggest advantage.

"It's just for the old friend, I'll order tea outside."

Seeing Pei Ju wanting to drink tea, Wang said anxiously.

The servant of the Pei family carrying tea walked past Yu Xi.

Yu Xi's eyes were calm and remained motionless.

His waist and back were straight.

It's just that there is a light of indignation hidden in my eyes.

On the soft couch in the inner hall of Pei's Mansion, Pei Ju and Wang were kneeling to play chess.

Pei Ju holds white, while Wang holds black.

Pei Ju's face showed a look of painstaking thought.

Qian said with some anxiety in her expression: "The doctor of the Ministry of Justice is the deputy minister of the minister. He asked the doctor to kneel in the courtyard for three hours. If he was found out in the palace, he would think that his husband was relying on his seniority and looked down on the national customs..."

Pei Ju dropped a son with a bang: "Go to the end, black is better than seven sons."

Wang smiled bitterly: "Husband, it's getting late. I haven't returned for such a long time. I'm afraid that someone will send me to ask."

Pei Ju smiled indifferently and said, "Well."

Pei Wang hurriedly stood up and stood up with Pei Ju.

Pei Ju said lightly: "I am tired, rest!"

Mrs. Wang was stunned.

...

The inner hall of Chenjiabao, Li Xiuning, Li Daozhen, Yang Rong and Changsun Wugui sat together and played mahjong.

When Yang Rong was open and proud, she carried Wu Erniang to the Chen Mansion.

Chen Ying is actually very clear.

Yang Rong actually wanted Chen Ying to see this biological daughter.

When he first saw Wu Erniang, Chen Ying discovered that this child, who was only over three months old, had the potential to harm the country and the people.

His black hair is even denser than a child over one year old.
