Chapter 434: no one can compare to you
Pei Yi could finally get up from the ground, bowed her head and said, "I will take my leave."
Walking out of the Yizheng Hall, the scorching sun of early autumn shone on her body, and Pei Yi saw a bright and open front.
She walked out of the palace in a leisurely manner, and gradually calmed down.
Although it can be seen from the rescue of the palace change that her father is indeed disobedient, the Pei family will indeed not rebel now—at least not when her father is alive.
Adie is the founding minister and veteran of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Such an identity is not suitable for rebellion, but it is suitable for coercion and self-respect—such as manipulating the puppet emperor to order the whole country.
When such a situation is formed, the royal family will become more and more weak. In her generation, it is suitable to directly abolish the emperor and stand on her own.
Pei Yi suddenly came to her senses, no wonder Huo Yuan designed to trap Pei Shu in the original book—the Pei family was indeed always ready to change the world.
In this regard, from the standpoint of Huo Yuan\'s royal family, it is understandable to dispose of the nine families of Pei Jiayi.
Pei Yi suddenly felt a little cold on her back.
She thought that in terms of the ancient people\'s idea of loyalty to the emperor, a family like the Pei family who was bent on rebellion could indeed be called a villain.
However, when the world really changes its surname, everything will be decided by the Pei family.
His Pei family is a king, so naturally he will not be a villain.
Pei Yi\'s heart was clear, and she walked out of the palace gate unknowingly.
She got into the carriage with the support of groom Li Zhong.
But she was not in a hurry to leave—Xiao Junji entered the palace with her by car, so she naturally had to wait for Xiao Junji to return home together.
The carriage is spacious and the seats are also spacious.
Pei Yi simply lay down on the seat, covered her face with a book, and dozed off.
No way, I didn\'t sleep well in the morning, and I kept dozing off in the morning, so I had to make up for it.
Although she dozed off, Pei Yi didn\'t sleep deeply, she was still alert to the things around her.
After a while, she felt someone get into the carriage.
Could it be that Xiao Junji is back?
Pei Yi wearily took away the book on her face, but another familiar face came into view.
"A Huan?!" Pei Yi said in surprise.
The person staring straight at her was Xun Huan.
I haven\'t seen her for nearly a year. Xun Huan\'s complexion is slightly darker than before, and the contours of his cheeks are more distinct than before.
"Why did you wake up so quickly?" Xun Huan said regretfully, "I\'m still stealing incense, it seems that it won\'t work."
Pei Yi put the book aside, and did not answer his words, Su Rong asked: "Did you get seen when you got into the carriage?"
Xun Huan sat next to her, and said aggrievedly: "I\'m not shameless, of course I will get in your car openly."
Pei Yi\'s face was dark, and she said slightly reproachfully: "Your Majesty is very suspicious now. You are a military general in Yongzhou, and you got into the car of me, a civil servant in Kyoto, what will your majesty think?"
Xun Huan stretched out his hand to cover her hand on her knee, and said with a smirk disapprovingly: "Your Majesty will think that Pei Sanlang\'s private life is really corrupt, that he can\'t get along with the heir of the Xiao family on the front foot, and even has an affair with a little secretary from Yongzhou on the back foot." They got together. Such absurd children are really embarrassing."
Pei Yi was so teased that she let out a "puchi" laugh, and the attitude of being on the verge of an enemy just now was gone.
Xun Huan is right.
She didn\'t need to be so nervous.
Anyway, she is famous, and Xun Huan did intend to hook her up, so even if Xun Huan got into her carriage openly, there would be no problem.
She is not afraid of the old emperor\'s suspicion at all.
On the contrary, according to the old emperor\'s current thinking, he would probably be happy to see her flirting with generals so absurdly.
"Master, I really miss you." Xun Huan said softly.
He was already sitting next to Pei Yi, and the distance between the two of them was too close. When he spoke, he was almost talking next to Pei Yi\'s ear. The breath sprayed on Pei Yi\'s side face, making her feel a little nervous. Crispy.
Pei Yi moved aside calmly, and said, "I miss you too."
Xun Huan silently watched her move away from him, and said with a smile: "The third master is really perfunctory. If you really miss me, why don\'t you write me a letter these days? Other soldiers in the army will receive letters from home from time to time. , I’m fine—poor little one, no one cares about it, so naturally I won’t receive any ‘letter from home’.”
Pei Yi secretly thought she was going to suffer when she heard Xun Huan\'s first sentence. After hearing the jealous complaints, she felt even worse.
In order to prevent the man in front of her from becoming jealous, Pei Yi hurriedly coaxed: "It\'s not that I don\'t write to you, but I can\'t. During that time, the Beijing Central Committee was very strict. It might hurt you."
This is not false.
When Xun Huan was sent out of the capital by Huo Yuan, it was the time when the capital searched for the assassins of the White House most severely.
At that time, there was a lot of turmoil in the capital, and everyone was safe and sound, for fear that one inattentive act of his would be labeled a "suspicious assassin" by the court.
Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for Pei Yi to write to Xun Huan.
Later, the court was unable to arrest the assassin, and the atmosphere gradually eased.
Although the government is no longer catching up on the White House assassin, there are still officials following up—but they don’t pay much attention to it. They only treat this incident as an unsolved case, and the follow-up is just a formality.
Xun Huan naturally understood this.
However, even if it was inconvenient for the third master to write a letter when he just left the capital, wouldn\'t the third master write a letter to him after the matter of arresting the assassin subsided?
To put it bluntly, the third master obviously forgot to write to him, so he had to find a bunch of excuses.
Xun Huan was clear in his heart, but he didn\'t plan to entangle this issue any further.
No way, that ronin Du Heng is still with the third master.
If I quarreled endlessly with Saburo on such a trivial matter, it would only annoy Saburo, so wouldn\'t it be cheaper for Du Heng?
Thinking of this, Xun Huan opened up a little bit, and his expression softened a little.
Although the knot in his heart has not been solved, at least on the bright side he still put on an empathetic look.
He lowered his eyes, with a submissive and gentle voice, and said softly: "It\'s because I didn\'t think carefully. Saburo is so busy all day long, and he still has my affairs in mind, so it\'s normal not to write to me. "
Unknowingly, he changed the title from "San Ye" to "San Lang", expressing that he no longer intends to settle accounts with Pei Jia San Lang for not writing a letter.
However, after all, he is not a magnanimous and tolerant person. Although he tried his best to appear obedient, his words inevitably brought out some sourness.
Although Pei Yi could hear the yin and yang aura, seeing the boy\'s obedient and docile appearance, she felt a little guilty again.
If Xun Huan was jealous and quarreled like before, she would have a headache, but now Xun Huan\'s quiet and talkative appearance really made her feel uneasy and secretly blamed herself.
Because of this self-blame, she didn\'t care that her hand was being held by the boy all the time.
She softened her voice and coaxed: "I didn\'t think carefully about this matter. When His Royal Highness sent you to Yongzhou Daying, he did it very secretly. I guess he didn\'t want anyone to contact you. So, I didn\'t move." I thought about writing a letter because I was afraid that I would accidentally hurt you. However, judging by your current appearance, you should be enjoying yourself in the army, so even if I send you a \'letter from home\', it shouldn\'t be a problem."
These words made sense, and Xun Huan felt very ironic in his heart.
The knot in his heart that he felt that he was not taken seriously was immediately untied, and the awkward sourness naturally disappeared from his body, and he became more open.
"I know that Saburo is doing it for my own good." The corners of Xun Huan\'s mouth were raised, and the corners of his eyes and brows were all happy.
Seeing him like this, Pei Yi blamed herself more and more.
Xun Huan is so easy to coax.
Although this boy is usually jealous and fussy, he is actually very easy to satisfy.
All she needed to do was make him happy--just a little bit of love from her to make him happy.
Some things really can’t be taken seriously, let alone thought deeply, otherwise they will get out of hand, and the more you think about it, the more wrong it will become.
In the end, Pei Yi\'s heart was heavy, and she always felt that she owed another debt of love.
She withdrew her hand that was held down by the young man, lowered her eyes slightly, and said slowly: "Of course I am doing it for your own good. We share weal and woe, and we will both prosper and we will suffer together."
Xun Huan frowned slightly. These words meant to distance him from him—it was clearly an admiration, but now it became an ally.
Xun Huan felt very unhappy.
But this year\'s military experience has made him grow a lot, and he is more serious than before, and usually doesn\'t show what he thinks on his face.
Xun Huan still had a gentle and obedient appearance, his heart was obviously sour and angry, but his words were soft: "It\'s all my fault that I didn\'t make it clear on the day of parting, which caused Saburo to misunderstand me so much. In my heart, Saburo has always been my beloved. It is because of this beloved that I accepted the arrangement of the third prince\'s military camp with confidence. I never thought that Saburo mistakenly thought that I did these things because of my ally relationship. I am wronged , Saburo."
Pei Yi was in a very complicated mood.
She feels that her peach blossoms are a bit too prosperous recently, so prosperous that she can\'t bear it.
Was it because she was too wary of the bosses before, or was she deliberately ignoring some details, so that she didn\'t notice Xun Huan\'s little thoughts before.
Pei Yi felt a pain in her head.
She wanted to say: Little brother, you really think too much.
But Pei Yi would feel very sorry if she rejected her so coldly.
The reason is really simple—Xun Huan is too well-behaved, too sensible, and too quiet now.
If Xun Huan was as rambunctious as before, Pei Yi felt that it would be fine if she refused now.
But Xun Huan\'s sad and pitiful appearance of trying to communicate with her now really made her feel unbearable.
After thinking for a while, Pei Yi still didn\'t know how to speak.
Reason is of course telling her to refuse directly, but sometimes it is not reason that makes the decision—and the more rational the more accidents are likely to happen.
Based on her understanding of this boss, if she acts too rationally and decisively, I am afraid that this boss will do something extreme.
After all, Xun Huan is the only big boss in the original book who dared to send the broken limbs to Su Luoyun to express his love.
Pei Yi couldn\'t help but shudder in her heart.
She glanced at the young man sitting beside her, and couldn\'t help but secretly sighed.
Xun Huan had been waiting for her reaction, seeing her silent for a long time, Xun Huan knew that her heart had softened.
He just wanted to bet on her soft-heartedness.
He is not a fool, Saburo is good to him, but Saburo is obviously not interested in him.
Although for a while he always felt that Sanlang and him were in love with each other, but after staying in Yongzhou for a long time, he gradually calmed down.
He thought about every detail of getting along with Saburo, only to realize that Saburo might not have any admiration for him.
Of course, this kind of conjecture is really unpleasant.
But now Saburo\'s various reactions have proved his conjecture to be correct.
There is no mutual affection between the two of them at all, what is just his wishful thinking.
So at this time, if he pushes too hard, he might push his sweetheart into someone else\'s arms.
The situation is different, and the means of natural coping are different.
Xun Huan knew that his family, Pei Sanlang, preferred well-behaved and obedient boys, so he became more obedient, and took the initiative to change the subject: "Sanlang, did your meeting with the saint today go well?"
Pei Yi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this sentence.
On the phone call Xun Huan complained about just now, she really didn\'t know how to respond so that it would be effective without hurting others.
Now that Xun Huan took the initiative to change the topic, this is naturally the best.
Pei Yi felt relieved, and a light smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She laughed softly and joked: "Of course it\'s going well, otherwise, can I stay in the carriage and doze off?"
Speaking of this, Pei Yi remembered the topic.
She looked at the young man in front of her, and asked with a smile, "A Huan, why did you come to Beijing this time?"
Actually, she can roughly guess the reason, but the topic needs to be thrown out, so that there will be back and forth, so that the embarrassing topic that was sour at the beginning will be diverted further and further away.
Although Xun Huan saw her intentions, he was still happy to hear that she was concerned about himself when she asked this question.
He smiled very cutely, not showing the stern look he usually had in the barracks, and said happily: "This time I came to Beijing to report on my duties with the governor of Yongzhou, General Yue. However, your majesty is now stricter. General Yue is only allowed to enter the palace to report on his duties, and I waited outside with nothing to do, so I simply walked away."
This is a bit ironic.
When local officials come to report on their work, the old emperor should also receive them.
But now that Kyoto has just experienced such a **** palace change, the old emperor is naturally a lot timid, and he is more guarded against generals.
To put it bluntly, the old emperor\'s current behavior is a bit petty, and he will look down upon it in the eyes of generals.
Pei Yi shook her head in her heart, secretly thinking that the Huo family\'s fortunes are really coming to an end.
The old emperor is not only without the diligence of the past, but also looks like a fool.
You said that he was discouraged by the government after being hit, and he was holding on to the power and was reluctant to let go, and he was clever enough to suppress the only adult prince—Huo Yuan.
According to Pei Yi, she feels that the old emperor is not clear-headed now.
He is not discouraged by the affairs of the court at all, but he is conceited to the extreme, and he is starting to do some things that are wrong even if he looks at them, but he is proud of himself.
For example, regarding the treatment of the fourth and fifth princes, the old emperor was complacent, but in fact he did a terrible job.
The fourth prince led his troops to rebel, even intending to shoot the old emperor and blame the fifth prince.
Such acts of rebellion will naturally be liquidated to the end.
But in the end, apart from beheading the fourth prince, the old emperor showed no sign of further investigation.
In the old emperor\'s own words, he should be gentle, and he should be lenient.
He said that this rebellion involved too many people. If the investigation continues, many officials will be involved, and there will be no one in the court.
Therefore, he wants to appease everyone, and he wants to show the generosity and benevolence of a king.
When Pei Yi learned about the old emperor\'s plan from her father, she almost rolled her eyes.
Who are you playing Dadu and Kindness with here?
It is precisely because the matter of the fourth prince involves too much, so we must strictly investigate it.
Even your Imperial Guard commander rebelled this time, why don\'t you settle the matter again and wait to be murdered by people around you again?
Imperial Guards, those are the soldiers of the Son of Heaven!
Even such soldiers have problems, how can we not investigate strictly?
Pei Yi only felt that the old emperor was getting more and more stupid with age.
Moreover, according to her father, since the palace change incident, the old emperor has become more and more fond of that face named Gu Changze.
The reason is also very simple. It is because Gu Changze has been bravely protecting the old emperor during the palace change. The old emperor was greatly moved, and he fell in love with this young man even more.
Pei Yi didn\'t want to pay too much attention to the matter in the old emperor\'s backyard.
But she remembered one thing. Her aunt told her that Gu Changze looked very similar to the deceased General Yan Chongdao—and Gu Changze was given to His Majesty the Emperor by the Fourth Prince.
With this kind of relationship, the old emperor didn\'t take more precautions against Gu Changze, but even favored him too much. I\'m afraid he really thinks his fate is too hard.
Thinking of this, Pei Yi almost rolled her eyes.
But she thought that her father had warned her to keep her smile on her face, so she forcibly controlled her facial expressions.
Xun Huan\'s original intention was to chat with his sweetheart.
Who would have thought that throwing away a topic of his own would cause his sweetheart to think so much and ignore him for a long time.
This is completely contrary to his plan.
Xun Huan was quick-witted, and immediately changed the subject: "Sanlang, where is Du Heng? I saw him with you at the gate of the palace just now, why is there no one there?"
Pei Yi woke up from her contemplation, and explained: "Ah Heng has entered the palace to face the saint, and I don\'t know when he will come out."
Xun Huan was very vigilant, and immediately asked, "Why did Du Heng enter the palace to face the saint?"
He saw that Du Heng dressed very carefully today, especially the pair of jade pendants on the waist rod were really good-looking, as if they were children of nobles.
Could it be possible that Du Heng had any adventures during the time he left Saburo?
But after all, it can\'t be that there is some strange identity, right?
Although Xun Huan\'s heart was spinning so fast, he didn\'t say a word.
Pei Yi knew that he must have doubts, but she didn\'t intend to hide it.
Because Xiao Junji obviously didn\'t deliberately conceal his identity at present, and when the two men meet, their identities will definitely be revealed to each other.
Instead of waiting for these two men to fight each other and get jealous, she might as well explain it to them now.
"A Heng is the eldest son of the Xiao family of Huainan King in Jinzhou." Pei Yi smiled very kindly, and tried to explain in the most gentle voice, "He is entering Beijing by order."
Xun Huan understood immediately.
Enter Beijing under imperial edict.
That means the emperor is worried about the Xiao family.
However, knowing what you understand does not mean that you can calm down.
Xun Huan was so shocked now that his always restrained face instantly became exaggerated—the eyes widened and his mouth opened slightly.
Although he guessed that Du Heng\'s status is unusual now, he never dreamed that this guy would be the son of a king with a different surname.
Moreover, he is not an ordinary son, he is the prince\'s eldest son, his status is too high.
Xun Huan felt sour in her heart.
He originally thought that after being one of the three founding tiger generals, his status was not low, and his status was still good.
But Xiao Junji is all relatives of the emperor, so his status is naturally higher than him.
Xun Huan held back his mouth, and the sourness in his heart couldn\'t hold back.
The magnanimity that I always wanted to show can\'t be shown, and I said sourly: "Sanlang, do you look down on me?"
Pei Yi never thought that the man would hold back such a sentence. She laughed and said, "How could this be?"
Xun Huan said with a sad and mournful look on the verge of tears: "I have a bad temper and a bad family background, so naturally I can\'t compare to Huainan Prince\'s son."
Yo, you are jealous, and you try to find her for comfort in different ways.
Pei Yi was neither crying nor laughing for a while.
She really felt that men should not be used to it.
But it\'s really bad for her not to say anything.
In fact, a proper comfort at this time will actually make things better.
Pei Yi coaxed patiently: "Naturally, your temperament is not bad, and you can\'t be bad when it comes to family background. Don\'t compare yourself with anyone. You are Xun Huan, unique, and no one can compare to you."
But Xiao Junji is all relatives of the emperor, so his status is naturally higher than him.
Xun Huan held back his mouth, and the sourness in his heart couldn\'t hold back.
The magnanimity that I always wanted to show can\'t be shown, and I said sourly: "Sanlang, do you look down on me?"
Pei Yi never thought that the man would hold back such a sentence. She laughed and said, "How could this be?"
Xun Huan said with a sad and mournful look on the verge of tears: "I have a bad temper and a bad family background, so naturally I can\'t compare to Huainan Prince\'s son."
Yo, you are jealous, and you try to find her for comfort in different ways.
Pei Yi was neither crying nor laughing for a while.
She really felt that men should not be used to it.
But it\'s really bad for her not to say anything.
In fact, a proper comfort at this time would actually make things better.
Pei Yi coaxed patiently: "Naturally, your temperament is not bad, and you can\'t be bad when it comes to family background. Don\'t compare yourself with anyone. You are Xun Huan, unique, and no one can compare to you."
