Chapter 132 Pei Ji is going to Liaozhou City to retire
Chapter 132: Pei Ji is going to Liaozhou City to retire
"You can think it's simple."
Fang Yuan smiled slightly and said calmly.
"Is Liao Fengmao's arrangement difficult?"
Changsun Chong pondered for a long time and asked again.
When Qin Huaiyu and others heard this, they also thought of this and looked at Fang Yuan.
"I don't know if I don't know, but he is currently being recruited by the imperial court to help repair the Yellow River dams. The investigation is also related to the Yellow River dams. You can make your own judgment on the difficulty."
Fang Yuan said calmly.
He does not count as deceiving Changsun Chong and others.
After all, he didn't know how much information Liao Fengmao had.
But it can be said that those who dare to embezzle the government's disaster relief funds without taking the lives of hundreds of thousands of people on both sides of the Yellow River into account must have a lot of background.
It should be very interesting for such a character to compete with the sons of several princes.
"I accept the assessment!"
Qin Huaiyu was the first to respond.
He knows that this is his best choice at the moment.
Otherwise, you will have to become Fang Yuan's younger brother for three years, which will be even more uncomfortable than killing him.
Accept the assessment, and you might have the opportunity to cooperate with Fang Yuan to do business and make money.
10% profit, looking at Fang Yuan’s business, is also a very huge profit.
"I accept it too!"
Changsun Chong’s second response.
"Accept!"
Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin and Du He also agreed.
For them, this is just an assessment, and success or failure does not matter.
But as long as it succeeds, not only will Qin Huaiyu's problem be solved, but he and others will also have a steady stream of income.
"Okay, you guys rest for a day or two and I'll prepare the cement and let you set off."
Fang Yuan nodded.
"Okay, farewell!"
Qin Huaiyu stood up immediately.
He feels uncomfortable staying here.
It's like he owes Fang Yuan something.
When Changsun Chong and others saw him leaving, they also stood up and left.
Soon, Fang Yuan and Du Miaoyan were the only siblings left on the scene.
"Fang Yuan, is there any difficulty or danger in that investigation?"
Du He said with a flattering smile.
He poured a cup of tea for Fang Yuan himself.
It was a matter of personal concern, so he had to be cautious.
Du Miaoyan also looked at Fang Yuan curiously.
Just now she thought that Fang Yuan was afraid of the sons of several princes.
After thinking about it for a while, I felt that it must not be the case. Fang Yuan is not that kind of person.
Then the only thing left is investigation, and there must be some difficulties and risks involved.
"The difficulty is uncertain, but the risks are definitely there."
"But there should be no risk to your identity."
Fang Yuan thought for a while and said.
He knew that Du He and Qin Huaiyu had a close relationship.
There are some things that cannot be said too clearly, for fear that Du He will not be willing to cooperate after revealing it to them.
"Okay, I understand, I'm leaving first."
Du He nodded, already having a guess in his mind.
It should be a bit risky, but that is for Fang Yuan, after all, Fang Yuan is just a governor.
And since they are the sons of the Duke, the risk is almost zero for them, so there should be no risk.
Du He leaves.
As soon as he walked out of the Governor's Mansion, he saw Qin Huaiyu and others walking towards him.
"I knew he would come out soon."
"How about it, Du He, have you detected any wind?"
Qin Huaiyu walked towards Du He and asked with a genuine expression.
"I think it's okay."
Du He told Fang Yuan's original words.
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
Indeed, as the sons of their prince, many risks will be reduced to zero.
"Let's go to Baihu Club to have a cool time. The girls there are tender and the service is superb."
Du He chuckled.
He had already gone there secretly last night.
It's really good, the service is better than that in Chang'an City.
It can be said that this is the best place among the many places he has experienced.
"Du He, why hasn't your sister come out yet?"
Qin Huaiyu looked at the door of the Governor's Mansion unwillingly and said.
"How can I care about this? Why don't you go catch her out?"
Du He rolled his eyes at him and walked in one direction.
"Alas..."
Qin Huaiyu sighed and could only leave unwillingly.
"Hey, Du He, are you going in the wrong direction? The White Tiger Club is over here."
Changsun Chong pointed in the opposite direction to Du He and shouted.
He just happened to hear passers-by talking about how nice the girls at Baihu Club were, and they all went to where he pointed.
"You bastards have no money, I won't go with you."
Du He quickened his pace.
He regretted it as soon as he proposed to go to the White Tiger Club.
Because Changsun Chong and their money had already been given to Fang Yuan.
If you don’t have money, then don’t you have to treat yourself to the White Tiger Club?
This is not okay!
It’s too expensive there!
"Gan!"
"Still not brothers?!"
Changsun Chong was stunned for a moment, then shouted.
"No, it's not that long ago."
Du He did not look back, but instead quickened his pace.
"Chase!"
"I must let him treat me today!"
Changsun Chong shouted and ran in the direction of Du He.
Qin Huaiyu and others immediately shouted and rushed towards Du He.
When Du He saw this, he ran away, all his energy in sucking milk was wasted.
But except for Changsun Chong, the rest of Qin Huaiyu have all practiced martial arts.
Not only were they faster than Du He, but they also had better endurance than Du He, and they quickly caught up.
"Good brother, what are you running for? Isn't it the White Tiger Club?"
Qin Huaiyu chuckled and grabbed Du He's shoulder with his right hand. Du He could no longer escape.
"You put it simply, it's not you who paid for it."
"Let me go, my shoulder hurts, it's about to break, ah, it's broken, it's broken."
Du He was panting and wanted to struggle to open Qin Huaiyu's hand, threatening that his shoulder hurt.
But Qin Huaiyu saw through his trick, and instead of letting go, he pressed harder.
At this time, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Baolin also caught up and surrounded Du He with a smirk.
Finally, Changsun Chong also caught up.
"Let's go, my good brother."
Qin Huaiyu and others pushed Du He toward the Baihu Club.
"No, I don't want it, sister, save me, sister, save me."
Du He shouted.
But Qin Huaiyu and others ignored him.
Du Miaoyan is not here either, and there is no one to save him.
But soon, Qin Huaiyu and others stopped moving.
A handsome and elegantly dressed young man stopped them in front.
"Young gentlemen, I am very pleased to hear about Pei's family, Pei Yonghan."
Pei Yonghan said calmly.
There was a faint smile on his face.
Polite, but not necessarily flattering.
"Pei Yonghan?"
"I don't know, what's the matter?"
Changsun Chong looked at each other and shook their heads.
They knew a lot of people named Pei, but not Pei Yonghan.
"Pei Yonghui is my brother, and I am now in charge of managing the Liaozhou branch."
"I heard that the young masters were caught in a trap set by Fang Yuan. I am here to help you."
Pei Yonghan briefly introduced.
There is still a faint smile on his face.
It's like everything is in your hands.
"How do you want to help us?"
Qin Huaiyu took a step forward and said in a deep voice.
Pei Yonghui and the others knew each other and had met several times.
As the first heirs of the Xiwen Pei family, how could they not know each other?
However, I heard that he has been deprived of his position as heir, but I don’t know if the news is true.
"This is not the place to talk. How about we change places?"
Pei Yonghan chuckled.
"Okay, let's go to the White Tiger Club...please."
Qin Huaiyu pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice.
"Shall I please?"
Pei Yonghan finally felt a little uneasy.
The faint smile on his face instantly faded a lot.
After all, it’s not one person, but five people, so the consumption is a bit high.
The average consumption per person in the White Tiger Club is one or two guan, and for five people, that is five to ten guan, or even more.
"Not willing?"
"Then forget it, let's go."
Changsun Chong interrupted and wanted to leave the scene.
Qin Huaiyu and the others naturally have no objections and will leave if they follow.
"No, no, I am willing. It is an honor for me to invite the sons of several princes."
Pei Yonghan smiled even less, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Wisdom! Mr. Pei please!"
Changsun Chong immediately changed his face.
The same is true for Qin Huaiyu, Du He and others.
Several people moved to the White Tiger Club.
"Gentlemen, welcome!"
Six beauties on both sides of the entrance to the White Tiger Club bowed with enthusiasm.
Soon, a slightly older but charming beauty walked out to receive Pei Yonghan and the others.
"Old Madam, supreme service package, one per person."
Du He spoke first.
"Okay, please come this way."
The madam's smile grew brighter, and she quickly entertained her even more warmly.
Pei Yonghan froze instantly, and the faint smile on his face completely disappeared.
The per capita consumption of the White Tiger Club is one or two guan, but the supreme service package is the most expensive package. It is privately known as a one-stop service, and it is as expensive as fifteen guan.
At this moment, Pei Yonghan's heart ached.
"Okay, Du He, you already know what the set menu is."
"How is this supreme service package? Is it adequate?"
"Don't worry, I've made it clear that the supreme service package is the most expensive package."
Changsun Chong and others walked in the front.
Everyone gathered around Du He and talked quietly.
Soon, they learned the general situation of the White Tiger Club.
There are six packages in total: first-level package, second-level package, third-level package, premium package, top-level package, and supreme service package.
Not long after, several people arrived at a large private room.
"The service will start later. I'll talk to a few gentlemen about it beforehand."
Pei Yonghan finally walked in and ordered the madam.
The madam was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Changsun Chong and others with solicitous eyes.
"How can we talk without a girl?"
"Old Madam, fuck the girl first and serve her later."
"By the way, remember if this young master likes to hear about Pei's family, Pei Yonghan, and he pays the bill."
Changsun Chong made a fuss with several people.
I don’t know what Pei Yonghan wants to talk to him and others.
If the negotiation fails, then wouldn’t you and others not be able to enjoy themselves when they come to the White Tiger Club?
You must order the set meal first and then record Pei Yonghan's name on it. This is the best choice.
"Okay!"
The madam responded enthusiastically.
After seeing that Pei Yonghan didn't refuse, he left the arrangement.
Pei Yonghan's heart is bleeding and he regrets asking Zhang Sun Chong and others today.
Fifteen guan per person, six people are 90 guan. The Liaozhou branch does not have much money at its disposal.
Soon, more than a dozen girls came into the private room. Several young men exchanged several horses and chose the one they liked to stay.
"Mr. Pei, don't you choose one?"
Changsun Chong hugged the girl, looked at Pei Yonghan with a smile and asked.
"No need for now."
"I don't like girls getting in the way when we're talking about business."
The corner of Pei Yonghan's mouth twitched, and he was duplicitous.
He was really distressed that he had to spend so much money and was reluctant to part with it for a while.
I’m glad to hear that although the Pei family has a big business and vast wealth, not everyone can control it.
"By the way, Mr. Pei said he wanted to help us?"
"How do you want to help us?"
Qin Huaiyu asked.
Du He and Cheng Chumo had no intention of talking, and were laughing with the girls.
"Have you guys seen a strange gray-white tall building in the city?"
Pei Yonghan said in a deep voice.
"See, what is that?"
Changsun Chong and the others immediately became interested.
Several of them also noticed the strange tall building.
But time is limited, so I haven’t found out what it is yet.
"The one in Fang Yuan's mansion, I heard it was specially built by Fang Yuan to put money there."
"Building such a strange tall building to save money, you can imagine how rich Fang Yuan is."
Pei Yonghan's expression condensed and he said in a deep voice.
"Save money?"
Changsun Chong and the others looked at each other.
Although they already know that Fang Yuan is very rich.
But there is absolutely no need to spend money on building such a thing?
It can be completely hidden in the house, or dug in the ground to put money, etc.
Several people didn't believe it when they heard it, and they even felt that Pei Yonghan had uneasy intentions.
"I don't know how much money is stored there, but it must be a lot."
"The Wang family, Lin family, Xie family, etc. in Liaoshan were all confiscated by him. That's where the money must have gone."
Pei Yonghan said in a deep voice.
"What does this have to do with what you said about helping us?"
Changsun Chong raised his eyebrows and said slightly dissatisfied.
Wouldn't you let yourself and others steal Fang Yuan's money?
"I want to cooperate with you gentlemen to bring down Fang Yuan!"
"I don't want any of that money. You gentlemen can take whatever you want. Just leave Fang Yuan's factories to me."
Pei Yonghan said in a deep voice.
The private room became silent.
Du He and the others are no longer making fun of the girl.
Everyone looked at Pei Yonghan with something wrong in their eyes.
"Tell me your plan."
"It's been a long time," Qin Huaiyu said in a deep voice.
"All of them are sons of the Duke of the country and have distinguished status."
"If something unexpected happens in Liaozhou, and the target happens to be Fang Yuan..."
Pei Yonghan smiled sinisterly.
The look in his eyes became a bit scary.
"Joke!"
"We do everything, why do we need to separate your factories?"
Du He sneered.
Qin Huaiyu and others also nodded in agreement.
"These young masters have just arrived in Liaozhou, so they must not have much connection. I like to hear that Mr. Pei is willing to provide convenience, manpower, etc. to you young masters."
Pei Yonghan chuckled.
It seems that Du He’s words are not surprising.
"We can find all of these, we don't necessarily need to hear about Mr. Pei."
Du He shook his head and said in a deep voice.
"I have news for all you gentlemen, Prime Minister Pei is going to serve as an official to retire."
"His first choice is Liaozhou, and he will visit Liaozhou in person to inspect the situation."
"Several young masters cooperated at that time, and Prime Minister Pei just happened to take down Fang Yuan. Is this considered cooperation?"
Pei Yonghan pondered for a moment and whispered.
Pei Ji has submitted his resignation and agrees to Pei Ji's appointment.
Considering Pei Ji's great contribution, the imperial court gave Pei Ji the choice of a place to retire.
So Pei Ji proposed to observe the situation in several places in Liaozhou and then reply to the court after the investigation.
The first one to inspect is Liaozhou, and it will arrive soon.
"We understand what you mean, let us consider it for a few days."
Qin Huaiyu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
They knew that Pei Ji was going to become an official.
I just didn't expect that Pei Ji would choose Liaozhou as the inspection point.
It is probably because of Fang Yuan that such a small place is used as an inspection point, right?
I heard that the direct reason why Pei Ji became an official was because of Fang Yuan.
"Okay, then I won't disturb the young masters' happiness."
Pei Yonghan smiled confidently, stood up and left.
He thought that Changsun Chong and others would definitely agree to him.
After all, with Pei Ji here in person, nothing can resist him.
"Huaiyu, you don't really want to help with this kind of thing, do you?"
Du He was the first to speak.
He is very dissatisfied that Fang Yuan wants to become his brother-in-law.
But for my sister's sake, at least this group of people won't watch him being bullied.
"Huaiyu, I don't think we should get involved in this matter."
"Prime Minister Pei is not at odds with my father and I, so we should not interfere."
Changsun Chong also said.
It's about politics, they shouldn't get involved.
"Then I definitely won't interfere."
"I'm just thinking, should we not escort things first and stay to watch a good show?"
Qin Huaiyu rolled his eyes.
Pei Yonghan was naturally a little moved when he mentioned Fang Yuan's money.
But if a governor is removed, the governor's property will be used as the treasury and has nothing to do with them.
What's more important is that most of Fang Yuan's money comes from factories, how can he let Xiwen Pei get the majority of it?
"To be honest, Fang Yuan is actually the person my father likes, and my sister only met Fang Yuan."
"With my father here, this kind of bullying Fang Yuan across levels should not be successful."
Du He said suddenly.
"The person Du Xiang likes?!"
Qin Huaiyu and others were shocked.
This is the first time I know there is such an inside story.
"In this case, there is no need to stay."
"We will also remind Fang Yuan later that it is a favor or something."
Changsun Chong's eyes were a little complicated and he sighed.
The person who can be favored by Prime Minister Du is probably really worthy of Du Miaoyan.
Alas... the most beautiful woman in Chang'an City
"It should be so."
"Girl, if you have any service, please come up quickly!"
Qin Huaiyu also sighed, became depressed, and hugged the girl over.
......
Governor's Mansion.
Fang Yuan first received a secret report from the White Tiger Club, and then from Zhang Sun Chong and others.
He was not surprised that Pei Ji became an official. There seemed to be relevant records in history, but Fang Yuan could not remember the details.
I just didn't expect that Pei Ji would have the opportunity to choose a place to retire and take Liaozhou as one of the inspection points.
Maybe it's the butterfly effect caused by my own time travel. My butterfly has slowly affected the development of the entire history.
But these are not what Fang Yuan should consider. He is not promoting the development of history, but participating in and witnessing the development of history.
Facing Pei Ji's personal visit to Liaozhou, Fang Yuan also felt pressure.
"Fang Yuan, my father sent a letter saying that Prime Minister Pei wants to inspect Liaozhou..."
Du Miaoyan arrived again and said hurriedly.
The news is similar to what Fang Yuan heard just now, and it is also related to Pei Ji becoming an official and choosing Liaozhou as the inspection point.
"Thank you, I already know."
Fang Yuan said with a heavy expression.
Pei Ji’s trip this time is not a good one.
It is impossible to be tough with my current situation.
You have to think of some way to resolve it and fight back.
"You know?!"
Du Miaoyan said in surprise.
This is an urgent letter sent to him by Du Ruhui.
Logically speaking, this is the first thing other than the court ministers to know.
Fang Yuan’s information network is so big that he can obtain the imperial court’s information as quickly as possible?
Fang Yuan did not answer, he was thinking about countermeasures now.
"You have to be careful. If you have any questions, just ask."
Du Miaoyan saw that Fang Yuan didn't answer, so she didn't ask.
But in her heart, she felt that Fang Yuan was even more powerful.
Just a local governor has the ability to obtain such advance information.
"Thank you, I will."
Fang Yuan chuckled.
He calmed down quickly.
Along the way, I have encountered many dangers.
Being able to turn danger into safety every time depends not only on luck.
Now that Pei Ji is here, let's have a fight to see who wins.
"I'm relieved to see you're okay."
Du Miaoyan smiled sweetly.
Bright cheeks are beautiful and elegant.
As expected of the man I like, he remains calm in times of crisis.
Facing Pei Ji, even his own father cannot be said to be completely calm.
"This Xiwen Pei family is so disgusting, I suddenly want to uproot it."
"Miaoyan, what would Pei Ji's expression be like if I killed all the Pei clan in Liaozhou before Pei Ji arrived?"
Fang Yuan suddenly smiled evilly.
I'm glad to hear that the Pei family is very big, but there are not many branches in Liaozhou.
Pei Yinghua has been chopped off, but the rest can actually be used.
"If they don't commit any crime, I think it's better not to do anything."
Du Miaoyan pondered for a moment and said seriously.
Fang Yuan has great power, and it will not be difficult to destroy the Liaozhou branch of the Xiwen Pei family.
But this kind of killing is all based on personal preference. What is the difference between killing innocent people indiscriminately?
Those who serve as officials should benefit the people and provide a better environment for the places they govern.
Instead of killing.
It’s not about exterminating families and exterminating families for personal gain.
"You're right, I'm confused."
Fang Yuan shook his head and laughed.
This is, Zhang San came here in a hurry.
"Zun Zhou, the imperial court has issued an official document asking us, Liaozhou, to be ready to welcome Prime Minister Pei."
"The governors and governors of Hedong Province will also appear in Liaozhou to welcome Prime Minister Pei."
Zhang San reported with a somewhat horrified expression.
After receiving the official document from the imperial court, he was shocked after reading it and hurriedly came over to report to Fang Yuan.
"Hiss!!!"
"All the governors and governors of Hedong Province came to Liaozhou to welcome you?!"
Fang Yuan was also shocked and couldn't help but take a breath.
It’s quite surprising to visit Liaozhou City in person, but to be greeted by all the senior officials of Hedong Road.
This kind of standard for becoming an official is undoubtedly the highest standard in the history of the Tang Dynasty, and it is estimated that no one will be able to do it again.
"It should be the Supreme Emperor who has spoken."
"The Supreme Emperor regards Prime Minister Pei as his confidant and has a deep affection for him."
Du Miaoyan on the side was also shocked and felt unbelievable.
She knew to some extent that the emperor and Pei Ji were at odds, and it was impossible for the emperor to grant such a standard.
The only possibility is that the Supreme Emperor, who is under house arrest in Tai'an Palace, would treat Pei Ji like this.
This is undoubtedly equivalent to a gold medal to avoid death, telling the world that Pei Ji is his Supreme Emperor, and they should not think that he is easy to bully even if he becomes an official.
"Isn't this the first minister of the Tang Dynasty?"
Fang Yuan sighed.
He also understands the reason.
For a time, I felt even more stressed.
"The First Minister of the Tang Dynasty..."
Du Miaoyan murmured and nodded with deep understanding.
This approach of the Supreme Emperor will probably make many people envious.
"When will Prime Minister Pei arrive?"
Fang Yuan took a deep breath, regained his composure and asked.
