Chapter 81?? Arguing
The Peijiazhuang meeting hall is located on the left side of the school and is the place where the Pei family discusses major matters.
When Pei Changhao went to the meeting hall, he remembered that he should have to go to the meeting hall today. Peijiazhuang worships ancestors at the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, and the hour of Mao officially began. All the children of the Pei family, whether they are legitimate or illegitimate, will go to the meeting hall on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, listen to the family's arrangements and participate in the morning worship of ancestors the next morning.
However, Pei Changhao was not notified, so he did not go to the meeting hall.
At the door of the convention hall, several servants from the patriarch Pei Tao's residence were guarding her. Seeing Pei Changhao walking over quickly, one of them was about to go forward and speak to stop him. He was pulled by the people around him. Everyone watched Pei Changhao enter the convention hall.
"Chang Hao, why are you here..."
Pei Tao sat in the middle and saw Pei Changhao walking in, and couldn't help but speak.
All the elders of the Pei family were sitting, while Pei Yu and other juniors stood on the left and right sides, the legitimate Pei family children stood on the left, and the illegitimate Pei family children stood on the right.
Pei Changhao looked calm, looked at everyone, and bowed with his fists.
"Pei Changhao, a son of the Pei family, paid homage to the clan leader, uncle, and elders of the family, and all the cousins."
Pei Tao nodded.
"Chang Hao, today's family discussions, only the family children who have received the notice can enter the meeting hall. You can go out and wait."
Pei Changhao bowed to Pei Tao again and spoke calmly.
"Clan leader, today is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month. The family will worship their ancestors tomorrow. According to the previous arrangements, the nephew should be notified and went to the meeting hall to listen to the family's arrangements to participate in tomorrow's ancestor worship ceremony. It was too late, and the nephew still did not receive any notice, so I came here to see if the family had other arrangements on the matter of worshiping ancestors."
A hint of anger appeared on Pei Tao's face. Just as he was about to speak, Pei Ying, who was sitting on the right head, spoke.
"Clan leader, it was me who asked Pei Yuan to inform Chang Hao that the family was discussing the matter of worshiping ancestors tomorrow, and I was also thinking of letting Chang Hao go to the meeting hall. I think that since the family has made a decision about Chang Hao, we should inform him clearly today..."
The tiny whisper in the lobby disappeared instantly.
Pei Tao looked at Pei Ying and spoke helplessly.
"Brother Pei Ying, I know you are against the family's decision, but the family made this decision for the sake of the overall situation."
Seeing that Pei Wei did not continue to speak, Pei Tao looked at Pei Changhao.
"Chang Hao, the family has just made a decision. Tomorrow you will participate in the family's ancestor worship ceremony, but you cannot enter the ancestral hall to worship ancestors. As for the reasons, it has a certain relationship with your father Pei Che. What's more important is that the emperor and the court have not made a conclusion on this matter, which makes the family unable to publicly argue for the Pei Che brothers..."
When Pei Tao spoke, many people around him nodded frequently. In their opinion, it should not be a big deal to suffer some grievances for the sake of the entire Peijiazhuang.
After Pei Tao finished speaking, Pei Changhao's expression was still calm. They looked at everyone in the lobby and spoke in a calm tone.
"Clan leader, uncle, elders, and cousins, I have different opinions on this matter."
"For my father, for the Pei family and Peijiazhuang, I have to say something."
Pei Tao nodded.
"Chang Hao, if you have any ideas, just say them out. If your suggestions are feasible, the family will consider them."
Pei Wei looked at Pei Changhao and nodded.
"Chang Hao, just say whatever you think. Don't have any scruples. We all know your experience. The patriarch also said that if what you said makes sense, the family will definitely consider it."
Pei Changhao nodded slightly and tidied up his clothes.
"I am a child of Peijiazhuang. I have to say everything about my father and Peijiazhuang. I naturally know everything I need to say."
"The so-called crime of my father's plotting rebellion is the statement of the former Hezhong Jiedushi Wang Chongrong. The emperor and the court did not issue an order to clarify it. Yang Fugong, lieutenant of the Shence Army, ordered the world on behalf of the emperor and the court to attack King Xiang Li Ying and the governor of Jingnan, did not affect my father. Moreover, my second uncle wrote memorials to the emperor and the court to argue for his father's conspiracy. Although the emperor and the court did not issue an order on this matter, they did not agree to the crime of my father's plotting rebellion."
"As for why Wang Chongrong, the former governor of Hezhong, harmed his father and why he imposed the crime of rebellion, the reason behind this is self-evident."
"My father was accused of treason, so I was forced to leave Peijiazhuang and began to live a displaced life. During that time, I thought a lot, thought of my father, and even more thought of the Pei family and Peijiazhuang."

"When I returned to Peijiazhuang, I suddenly realized a truth. Perhaps it was because my Pei family paid too much attention to reputation, so I swallowed my anger when it came to my father's rebellion. Unexpectedly, this approach encouraged the arrogance of some people."
"My Pei family is a famous family. She has always been loyal to the emperor and the court. She has made too many contributions to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, my Pei family has also received generous rewards."
"Now, there are many people who are jealous of my Pei family. It's just that my Pei family has a deep foundation and strong strength. Most people dare not take action. However, those who secretly covet it are always staring at my Pei family. Once my Pei family shows weakness in some things, they will definitely gain a better position and gradually weaken the power of my Pei family."
"If the clan leader thinks his nephew is alarmist, he might as well tell what happened in Jiyuan County."
"Juxianlou was originally a restaurant in Jiyuan County. Because of its booming business, it was coveted by the He County Magistrate of Jiyuan County. So I found the rascal scoundrels in the city, intending to shake the foundation of my Peijiazhuang through Juxianlou. I came forward to stop the rascal scoundrels of the rascal scoundrels directly and clearly stated that Juxianlou would never retreat, because the three rascal scoundrels who were provoking trouble admitted that they were instructed by He County Magistrate. In the face of the iron-like fact, He County Magistrate retreated and did not dare to take any further actions."
"Later, the county magistrate He died. It is rumored that the person who killed the county magistrate He was Chang Laosan. This person was the confidant of Chang Xingru, the general under the command of Wang Chongrong, the governor of the former Hezhong. Together with Chang Xingru, he participated in the murder of Wang Chongrong and was the only person who escaped punishment."
"As for why Chang Lao San killed County Magistrate He, this matter is a matter of investigation by the government. But strangely, someone actually found that Juxianlou was involved in this matter and plotted to murder County Magistrate He."
"I have received the news that if Juxianlou takes out a certain amount of money, he can get rid of the suspicion, but I will refuse this."
"Not to mention whether Juxianlou had murdered County Magistrate He, any matter that he said requires evidence. If there is no evidence and suspicion of Juxianlou out of thin air, Juxianlou will never admit such a thing."
"Because behind Juxianlou is Peijiazhuang and Pei family."
"I say these things just to prove that when facing anything, if you take the truth, you must never show weakness. There will be a second time when you have the first time. Many times, our tolerance and magnanimity are the reasons why others are more demanding."
...
There were also many people in the lobby nodding. In fact, everyone understood these principles, but no one said them.
Pei Tao's expression became serious. He looked at Pei Changhao and sighed slightly.
"Chang Hao, we all know the truth you said. It's just that now is a very important moment. It is beneficial to the family to avoid some things slightly. However, you have indeed suffered grievances. The family is very clear about this. Besides, you are not unable to participate in the worship of ancestors, but you are not able to enter the ancestral hall to worship ancestors."
Pei Changhao shook his head.
"Mr. The clan leader, my nephew was about to talk about the matter of worshiping ancestors. Since neither the emperor nor the court determined the crime of his father's rebellion, why did Peijiazhuang retreat? Could it be that the matter that the emperor and the court did not recognize? Peijiazhuang admitted it? If this is done, my nephew thought that it would have left trouble for the family."
Pei Tao sighed again.
"Chang Hao, you don't know some things. Naturally, the Pei family will not admit that they are traitors. The family has their own reasons for making such a decision."
Pei Changhao did not retreat, looked up at Pei Tao, and then spoke.
"The clan leader, my nephew is brave. The family is nothing more than worrying about the governor of Hezhong, Wang Chongying. Everyone in the world knows that Wang Chongying and Wang Chongrong are brothers. It is said that county officials are better to be in charge now. In terms of my father's affairs, Peijiazhuang cannot openly contradict Wang Chongying to avoid disaster."
"My nephew's ideas are different. At such a critical moment, Peijiazhuang needs to show his attitude and have the spirit of showing his sword."
"A good swordsman must dare to draw the sword. No matter how powerful the opponent is, even if he is the best in the world, even if he knows he will lose, he must draw the sword and show his fearless courage and courage."
"Drawing a sword may not necessarily win. If you don't draw a sword, you will definitely fail. Drawing a sword does not mean being brave but not being reckless, as long as you dare to draw a sword, you can seek opportunities."
"My nephew thought that my Pei family could stand for thousands of years and be hailed as a prominent family, so he must have the spirit of drawing a sword."
"I should endure when I should endure, and never retreat when I should not endure."
"The family firmly refuses to admit the crime of rebellion from my father. If we insist on our own understanding, we will draw the sword."
...
"Okay, well said, Chang Hao, I didn't expect you to be able to tell such a truth, you are really mature."
Pei Changhao had just finished speaking, and Pei Ying couldn't help but speak, and he looked at Pei Tao.
"Class leader, I think what Chang Hao said makes sense. The Pei family and the Pei family cannot make concessions on such a major matter. Neither the emperor nor the court can conclude that it is, and it is impossible for the governor of Wang Chongying to pursue it."
Pei Yu and others even raised their hands to applaud Pei Changhao.
Pei Tao looked at Pei Changhao and his eyes became deep.
"Chang Hao, you said it well. I was surprised that you could say these words. Well, tomorrow you can enter the ancestral hall and worship the ancestors of the Pei family..."
