Chapter 1260 The autumn night is extremely cold tonight
People often say that when encountering sad and painful things, you should control your emotions and think in an optimistic direction. But if you come to Wei Kai and talk about this now, Wei Kai, no matter how gentle his temper is, will probably become violent.
Get up and shout loudly to his mother...
"Brother Wei, don't make any unnecessary resistance, just surrender and capture him. You can still keep the body intact." Pei Jun said, as if he was saying that the weather was so refreshing and the moonlight was so bright.
There are still such people in the world!
As soon as Wei Kai saw Pei Jun, he understood what was going on. He couldn't help but point at Pei Jun across the street like a sword, as if he wanted to poke dozens of holes in Pei Jun's body, and roared angrily.
Said: "Pei Jun, you little thief! I don't treat you badly, how can I treat you like this!"
Pei Jun smiled, obviously enjoying such a moment. He ignored Wei Kai's pointing and shouted loudly: "The Wei family is solely responsible for the blame! Don't make mistakes! The General of the Expedition to the West has an order to only punish the first culprit.
We will never investigate, but anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"
Does a successful king or a defeated bandit need to go out of his way to show his bad nature in front of the loser who is bound to die? That does not conform to the aesthetics of the nobles, at least not in line with Pei Jun's aesthetics. Pei Jun's coming here is nothing more than a arrogant declaration to those other nobles
Hedong's original county ranking now needs to be adjusted, that's all. As for Wei Kai's scolding, Pei Jun responded with a smile.
The scene became a little cold for a moment, and even the Wei guards in front couldn't help but look back at Wei Kai.
After Pei Jun appeared, it meant that this was no longer a war to conquer the west against Hedong, but also a change in the gentry system of Hedong itself. Many small gentry and wealthy people who had fled to the alleys near Anyi
Right, he couldn't help but reveal a little of his head, secretly observing the changes here.
This situation sounds a bit strange, but it is actually somewhat similar to the succession of the throne of a dynasty. If General Zhengxi takes over Hedong, it means that the dynasty has changed. However, if Hedong's internal affairs only deal with it, it means that the dynasty has not changed, but the dynasty has not changed.
There was a new emperor.
This naturally made the old and young people in Hedong feel a lot more comfortable, although they also knew that even if the Pei family replaced the Wei family, they might not be able to control the place like the Wei family before. The power of General Zhengxi
It is inevitable that it will infiltrate, but it is better than letting outsiders rule the locals, right?
A thousand-year bastard or a thousand-year turtle. Although the Hedong gentry cannot live that long, most of them are willing to let their families become bastards or turtles. Well, it refers to the survival time. Anyway, now Zhengxi is
The mother-in-law is too strong, so the younger daughter-in-law will just have to endure it to see who dies first. It’s not like she hasn’t endured it before.
Therefore, when Pei Jun showed up, the whole situation naturally became a little strange, and it was based on this consideration that Fei Qian specifically asked Pei Jun to do this.
Pei Jun naturally knows this, so he has to do better.
Pei Jun smiled and repeated again: "The General of the Expedition to the West has an order, only to punish the first culprits, and not to punish anyone, but anyone who resists will be killed without mercy! Everyone, it's getting late, please don't seek death!
"
Although he was smiling, everyone could understand what Pei Jun was saying. The noise around the city was in sharp contrast to the eerie quietness of this area. The two sides were facing each other across a short distance.
, but did not move for the time being, waiting for Wei Kai to make the final decision.
Taishi Ci was a little impatient, glanced sideways at Pei Jun, and then turned to look at Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun seemed to have noticed Taishi Ci's eyes, and turned around, looked at Taishi Ci, and then shook his head slightly, indicating to wait a moment. There is nothing wrong with directly marching up, but it can save some effort.
Better? The Wei family not only has people in Anyi, but also has many forts outside the city. If they are pressed hard, even if they attack them one by one, the seedlings in the surrounding manors will suffer to some extent. Therefore, it just takes more time. This
A little investment is worth it.
"Pei Fengxian..." Wei Kai gritted his teeth and looked at Pei Jun, and said with difficulty, "If we surrender, can we save our lives?"
Pei Jun smiled and said: "General Zhengxi has unparalleled benevolence and is known to everyone on the road. Brother Wei, have you thought about it?"
Pei Jun didn't dare to give Wei Kai any guarantee. Naturally, he couldn't stimulate Wei Kai by saying that even if he surrendered, he would still be dead. Therefore, he could only choose some Che Lulu words to say. Anyway, the life and death of the Wei family is at stake.
Now it depends on Wei's next actions and General Zhengxi's mood...
Of course, Pei Jun believed that if the Wei family surrendered, there was no telling how many people would survive, but if they continued to resist, it would definitely be a dead end, so Pei Jun specifically emphasized "Think it over" and so on.
The autumn night was windy and desolate, and the whole province of Weikai was so cold that it was freezing to the bones, and the body was trembling.
In fact, Wei Kai was not stupid, but no one was perfect, and he did not have much talent in military matters. Therefore, after suppressing his initial anger, he thought again and again, sighed and declared surrender.
Pei Jun was still smiling, but he slowly let out a long breath.
Done!
Does Fei Qian, the general who conquered the West, need a dilapidated Hedong, or a Hedong that can turn over a considerable amount of grain and grass during the autumn harvest?
The answer is obvious. Although General Zhengxi did not personally explain anything, isn't doing these things a good way for Pei to reflect his self-worth, especially for Pei Jun to reflect the meaning of his own existence?
If anyone can do a good job, then why does Mr. Pei need to do it?
However, until now, his adventure has finally paid off. Although the next days will be shrouded in the shadow of General Zhengxi's flag, compared to the Wei family, which will be broken even if it is not destroyed, it will be broken and unable to recover.
, it’s already a world of difference!
Pei Jun said loudly: "Come here! They are all tied up! We will wait for General Zhengxi to report!" Then he turned to Zhao Yun and Tai Shici and said with cupped hands, "I'm bothering the two captains to send someone to post a notice to patrol the city and apprehend Xiao Xiao.
To reassure the people,"
Taishi Ci was a little dissatisfied with Pei Jun coming forward to make decisions like this. He snorted and ignored Pei Jun. However, Zhao Yun slightly cupped his hands on the horse, nodded and said: "This is natural..."
…………………………
"I've met General Zhengxi!"
"Wait, don't tell me..." Seeing that the soldier standing at the door wanted to send a message inside, Fei Qian stretched out his hand and stopped him.
Standing in front of the Cai Mansion, Fei Qian muttered to himself that his men were being beaten to death in Hedong, and he was standing in front of the Cai family courtyard hesitating. Isn't this not a good idea...
Fei Qian pinched his beard, thought again and again, and finally sighed slightly and entered the courtyard.
Black and white lanterns were hung on the lintel, covering the originally slightly colorful eaves and beams. The lanterns with black characters on a white background swayed slightly in the wind, as if they were waving to people, and like
There was something swinging on the lantern. Although the courtyard was still covered with moss, small trees, corner pavilions, fences and stone steps, the colors seemed to have faded away, leaving only pure black and white.
Walking among them, people can't help but become silent, and even the sound is forced to be softer.
"Uncle Kong, the Cai family...is Cai Zifeng still here?" Fei Qian turned around and asked Linghu Shao.
Linghu Shao followed Fei Qian half a step later. Hearing this, he bent slightly and said, "I wanted to come here once, but I stopped me..."
Fei Qian nodded and did not continue to say anything. Except for the era when relatives became fewer and fewer and human feelings gradually became indifferent in later generations, most of the time there are some good people and some scum in a family. This is impossible.
Things to avoid.
From the perspective of the Chenliu Cai family, Cai Gu's approach was correct. If Cai Yong was still alive and Cai Yong was willing to put things here, Chenliu and the Cai family would naturally have nothing to say. But now that Cai Yong has passed away, Chen Liu
The Cai family would not allow the Cai family's belongings to be lost outside. If Fei Qian hadn't clearly expressed his disapproval, Cai Gu might have arranged for personnel to count and move them...
The autumn night wind blew through the small courtyard, blowing the black and white curtains high.
Fei stopped before entering the mourning hall and looked at Cai Yan, who was kneeling on the side of the mourning hall.
Perhaps because of sadness, perhaps because of helplessness, or perhaps because of some other reasons, Cai Yan now looks thinner than before. A filial piety dress is placed on his small shoulders, making him look very broad. A gust of wind blows.
, empty, as if there was only a small bracket left under the mourning clothes, and even the face was only a piece of porcelain white, so transparent that there was not much blood.
Fei Qian frowned and said, "Why are you so haggard?"
Linghu Shao sighed and whispered behind Fei Qian: "Miss Cai is too sad and doesn't want to eat..."
Fei Qian was silent for a moment and said, "Go and order some porridge to be cooked..." After saying that, he quietly walked into the mourning hall and prostrated himself in front of Cai Yong's memorial tablet.
On Cai Yan's face, which was so pale that it was almost transparent, the long eyelashes that drooped trembled twice, and then they were raised. When they saw it was Fei Qian, they twitched twice more for some reason, and then drooped again.
Fei Qian respectfully kowtowed in front of Cai Yong's spiritual throne, then offered incense, then returned and knelt down to one side.
Cai Yan slowly bowed down and returned the filial piety gift. The black hair spread out and slipped on the filial piety clothes, as if the original white porcelain doll suddenly had some cracks.
"I'm sorry..." Fei Qian was silent for a while and said softly, "Sister, please express my condolences... You, you have lost your temper..."
After listening to Fei Qian's words, Cai Yan's long eyelashes trembled a few times, and finally raised her eyes to look at the man in front. Although the distance between the two people sitting on their knees was not very far, I don't know why Cai Yan
It feels like the distance between the two people is getting farther and farther...
"Thank you for your help, General Conquering the West..." I don't know why, but Cai Yan didn't react until he said this sentence, but the words had already been spoken, and even if he wanted to take them back, it was too late, and his long eyelashes trembled.
After a few times, he hung down in a panic, and his heart couldn't help but shrink and hurt, as if he had been stabbed by something. His face became more transparent, and there was almost no trace of blood.
"..." Fei Qian opened his eyes suddenly, but couldn't see Cai Yan's eyes. He could only see the long eyelashes trembling on the white porcelain face, but he didn't know what he should say.
Talk about recent military developments?
They said they captured Guanzhong, and they also captured Hanzhong, and now they are cleaning up Hedong?
Or talk about the surrounding people’s livelihood and political affairs?
It is said that the farmland in the east of Pingyang City that was not damaged by the military disaster is about to be harvested. Although the production has been reduced, it is still acceptable?
Or tell Cai Yan about Huang Yueying's change in attitude?
Fei Qian opened his mouth and suddenly found that he had nothing to say.
The more silent you are, the more your words are forced into the corner by the power of silence, and you dare not come out. And the less you have words, the more the power of silence grows...
Until the silence between the two of them was broken by Cai Yan's personal maid who came over with porridge and presented a book.
Looking at the wooden tray in the hall, which seemed to be blocked by invisible pressure, and some shivering, Fei Qian still had some impression, so he nodded slightly, and then said: "Come here, Duan, I will serve you.
My little girl eats some..."
Seeing Feng Shu approaching, Fei Qian looked at Cai Yan who still had his head lowered, sighed slightly, and said, "Take care of yourself... I'll come back in a few days..."
Cai Yan remained silent, lowering his head and saying nothing.
Fei Qian bowed to Cai Yong's memorial tablet again, then got up and walked out.
Feng Shu glanced at Cai Yan and saw that she was not moving. He quickly put the wooden plate aside, bowed and said, "Congratulations, general."
Fei Qian paused, waved his hand, and walked out.
After walking out of Cai Mansion, Fei Qian stopped, looked up at the waning moon in the sky, and said after a while: "There is no one in charge of Cai Mansion now, so I am worried! Uncle Kong will pay more attention to me for the time being... If Cai Mansion
There are some young people who are chasing after people and gossiping, find them out... and kill them with sticks!"
Linghu Shao sighed in his heart, but couldn't say anything, so he lowered his head and accepted the order.
When Fei Qian's figure had disappeared, Cai Yan's tense body relaxed. After shaking twice, he was about to fall to the side. Feng Shu was frightened and hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and was about to call other servants to come over.
.
The autumn wind was blowing coldly, and inside the mourning hall, the curtains were fluttering.
"Don't...don't alarm others..." Cai Yan held down Feng Shu's hand. Perhaps because he hadn't spoken for a long time, even his voice was a little dry.
"Mom, please eat as much as you can... Wuwuwu..." Feng Shu hugged Cai Yan and couldn't help crying, "You are like this... I feel uncomfortable..."
"I'm not hungry..." Cai Yan said softly. Although she basically only ate one meal a day in the past two days, and she didn't take more than a few bites, she really had no appetite at all and didn't feel hungry at all.
Feng Shu shook his head desperately, even his tied hair was a little loose, and he said with a crying voice: "No, little girl, eat more, eat more, please, little girl..."
"..." Cai Yan didn't seem to hear Feng Shu's words. He just stared at Cai Yong's spiritual tablet, his lips moved slightly, and a drop of clear tears rolled down, "Aweng... what should I do with the child...
