Chapter 131 The Zheng Family Finds the Way

Before dawn, Yang Yuanqing was about to leave the royal palace. Before Jingxing's affairs were handled, he could not sit firmly in the court. Although he entrusted Li Jing with full responsibility for the Jingxing affairs, full responsibility does not mean that Yang Yuanqing ignored him and became a hand-off manager.

This time when he returned to Taiyuan, he actually just came over to see his family. He was not Dayu, so he could pass by his house three times without entering. The last time he went south from Mayi, he did not enter the city. This time he didn't go home to see him, it would be a bit unreasonable.

At the fifth hour, it was the late night when the gate of the Chu King's Mansion opened, and more than a dozen maids and servants came out with lanterns, and the orange-red lights illuminated the front of the gate.

Outside the mansion, a large group of war horses stood in line, taking a few steps back from time to time, making a clattering sound. Hundreds of personal guards were wearing helmets and armor, controlling the war horses, waiting for the order to set off.

Yang Yuanqing was sent out of the mansion by Minqiu and Chuchen. Although Pei Minqiu had a smile on her face, there was an unconcealed worry in her eyes. She didn't sleep all night and looked a little haggard.

Last night, my husband didn't come to her yard. Since they got married for ten years, Yuan Qing must spend the night in her room every time he comes back. This is a family rule. After all, she is a princess and a wife, which is also a respect for her.

But last night, this family rule was broken, and my husband went to Chuchen's place, and there was no special reason. If he was visiting Asduo, there might be a far-fetched reason, but going to Chuchen's place was obviously showing his face.

This made Pei Minqiu really dissatisfied. Her husband's behavior last night hurt her self-esteem. Since she was a couple, there was nothing to say. Why didn't he talk to him about what he did wrong? He insisted that everyone in the mansion knew about it and tear his face.

But while Pei Minqiu was dissatisfied, her heart was also full of worries. She knew her husband very well. Her husband was not a ruthless person. If there were no major problems for ten years, he would not have put on such a look on himself.

Something must have happened, Pei Minqiu is also an extremely smart woman. When she heard that Yang Yuanqing was unwilling to go to her yard, she immediately inquired about the situation and found out that it was Du Ruhui who had come. This must have been what Du Ruhui said.

Pei Minqiu realized sensitively that her husband knew about Ning'er's burying the seal? If that was the case, her husband should come to him angrily.

It is very likely that it was the Pei family and Du Ruhui who told her husband that it was the Pei family who was behind the scenes, so her husband took his anger on him.

Pei Minqiu thought about it all night and felt extremely sad. The originally loving couple had a crack because of the demon who had power. If she had the choice, she would never be the princess and would rather be her wife of Fengzhou governor.

"Madam, I'm leaving."

Yang Yuanqing smiled at Pei Minqiu, and he sighed a little in his heart. In fact, he also knew that his wife might be innocent. It was just her parents' home...ah! It depends on whether she can untie the knot.

Pei Minqiu also forced a smile and asked, "When will your husband return?"

"At least ten days, at most half a month. In short, I will definitely come back before the New Year."

Yang Yuanqing turned over the horse, nodded to Chuchen again, shook the reins, "Hold!" The war horse ran out, ran across the Guardian River, and ran towards the boundless darkness.

Pei Minqiu looked at her husband running away. She felt like she was abandoned by her husband, and her heart was cramped and her body began to become weak.

Chuchen, who had been silent, noticed Pei Minqiu's abnormality and hurriedly supported her, "Sister, are you... uncomfortable?"

Of course she also knew the reason. But what could she say, would she ask her to say, 'I didn't mean it' or 'This matter has nothing to do with me, I don't know', etc.

Saying such words at this time will only stimulate Pei Minqiu even more. At this time, the best way is to remain silent.

Chuchen hurriedly ordered the maid, "Go and invite Doctor Qin!"

Pei Minqiu waved his hand quickly, "No need to go, I'm fine, I just didn't have a good rest last night."

She held Chuchen and walked slowly into the mansion. When she looked up, Pei Minqiu saw the mansion sign above her head, "King of Chu Mansion". These three words were so dazzling at this time. She was dazzled and her heart was extremely painful. She wanted to swing an axe and smash the sign to pieces.

As soon as dawn was dawn, Pei Minqiu rushed towards the Pei family in anger.

.........

It is impossible for a person to ensure that he is always correct at all times. Even a scheming person cannot do anything without any mistakes.

Especially when interests are at stake, wise people will make some unwise decisions because they are too confident, which will make big mistakes.

Pei Ju is a typical example. Because he was too confident, he did something extremely risky. It is still unknown whether it was a stupid thing, but for Pei Ju, he was forced by the situation and had to take this step.

Pei Ju has been paying attention to Ruizhao in the past two days, Ruizhao?p>

A certain squid is already in a turmoil, and the whole city is talking about scolding Yuan Qing ascending the throne. It can be said that Yang Yuanqing ascended the throne is already well-known and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people?p>

More importantly, his ascension has become the expectation of the people of the world. From the welcome of the whole city when he came back, it can be seen that his ascension to the throne has become what people want.

Not only the people, but also the officialdom, there are undercurrents. As Pei Ju grasped, three people have already initiated a petition for the throne. At this time, everyone wants to win the merit of support, including Su Wei. Pei Ju knows very well that Su Wei is also planning to support Yang Yuanqing.

But the reason why Pei Ju created auspicious signs was not to make any contribution to support him. He had a deeper intention. He hoped that Yang Yuanqing would ascend the throne in Taiyuan, rather than to ascend the throne in Chang'an.

This involves the most vital interests of the Hedong family. If they ascend the throne in Taiyuan, then the officials of the Hedong Group will share a huge amount of interests. The officials of the Hedong Group are more or less related to the Pei family, and the Pei family will definitely be the final beneficiary.

On the contrary, if Yang Yuanqing ascended the throne in Chang'an, then Hedong officials would inevitably be marginalized. Hedong officials who have followed him for so many years will also be disappointed with the Pei family, which will have a significant impact on the Pei family's future prospects.

Pei Ju knew these interests more than anyone else. The victory of the Sui Chu battle was indeed an excellent opportunity to persuade Yang Yuanqing to ascend the throne. If Yang Yuanqing refused, he would force him to ascend the throne with the will of public opinion and court officials.

If Pei Ju just promoted Yang Yuanqing's ascension to the throne for the sake of the family, he would not have used Yang Yuanqing's eldest son Yang Ning to bury the jade seal. After all, this risk is too great. Once Yang Yuanqing finds out, he will probably lose the most important piece of the prince of the Chu King.

The main reason is that a greater risk threatens the interests of the Pei family, that is, the reconciliation between the Guanlong nobles and Yang Yuanqing.

He also learned not long ago that the military weapon surveillance order Zhang Lei was actually from the Dugu family, and his real name was Dugu Lei. Yang Yuanqing obviously knew it a long time ago, which means that the Dugu family and Yang Yuanqing had already colluded.

Although Yang Yuanqing was Yang Guang's vanguard in attacking the Guanlong nobles and formed an inexplicable hatred with the Guanlong nobles, the times changed. As his identity changed, his hatred with the Guanlong nobles would gradually fade, especially the Guanlong nobles took the initiative to surrender, which would make them laugh and eliminate their grudges.

The Dugu family has already become effective, so why would the Dou family, Changsun family, Yu family, Yu Wen family, Hou Mo Chen family and other Guanlong nobles defect to Yang Yuanqing?

Once Yang Yuanqing scooped up the Guanlong nobles, he would inevitably integrate the Guanlong nobles and Guanlong nobles to balance the power of Shandong geniuses. At this time, whether Yang Yuanqing can ascend the throne before seizing Guanlong is particularly urgent for Shandong geniuses.

If it weren't forbidden to do so, he wouldn't have used Yang Ning's chess piece. Pei Ju knew it. Even if Pei Minqiu discovered it, she would have concealed it and would not tell Yang Yuanqing.

However, Pei Ju did not expect that Yang Yuanqing actually returned to Taiyuan yesterday, which made him feel a little nervous. He thought that Yang Yuanqing would go to Jingxing first and then Taiyuan again.

Just as Pei Ju was sitting in the study and pondering about this, there was a sound of running outside the door, and Pei Yao was heard anxiously reporting outside the door: "Head of the family, the princess is here!"

Pei Ju was startled and hurriedly said, "Open the door quickly and lay the red carpet to greet him."

Although Pei Minqiu is the granddaughter of the Pei family, her identity is the Princess of Chu after all, and she will be the queen in the future. Pei Ju did not dare to neglect at all. He quickly changed into a piece of clothes and hurriedly greeted her.

Pei Minqiu came lightly, without notifying the Pei Mansion in advance, nor sending a formal letter of writing. In other words, Pei Minqiu returned to her parents' home as a private identity.

She did go back to her parents' home in a private capacity, and she wanted to find her grandfather and make it clear to him.

Pei Minqiu rushed into Pei's mansion angrily without waiting for the Pei family to open the door or the red carpet to come out. Pei Yao hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Prince, please wait, the Pei family cannot salute like this."

"I'm not a princess now. I'm looking for my grandfather, please take me there."

Pei Yao felt the dissatisfaction in Pei Minqiu's tone. He didn't dare to say anything more and glanced at the four female guards following Pei Minqiu.

The four female guards, Gufu, understood what he meant, took a step forward, and guarded the princess tightly. Pei Yao had no choice but to bow to Pei Minqiu and said, "Go to the guest hall! Grandfather is waiting for you there."

In fact, Pei Ju did not come out to welcome him. Halfway through the way, he heard that Pei Minqiu did not bring the guards and officials of the royal palace, but came in a light carriage. He knew that Pei Minqiu came to Pei's mansion in his private capacity. Since that was the case, there was no need for him to welcome him with such a big fanfare.

He sat in the guest hall, waiting patiently for his granddaughter to arrive. After a while, a sound of ringing and wearing a ring, Pei Minqiu walked into the lobby. The female guards on all sides stood in the hall, standing solemnly, holding the hilt of the knife in his hand and staring at the movement in the hall.

Pei Ju quickly got up, smiled lovingly and said, "Minqiu, why are you here today?"

Pei Minqiu had a gloomy face, and did not say a word, nor did he politely. Pei Ju was stunned. He suddenly reacted and quickly gave a deep tribute, "Since Pei Ju, see the princess!"
