BXBX NOVEL Chapter 251: what a shame
"A prince like this, even if he gets lucky enough to become the throne in the future, he won\'t do much, but he\'s nothing more than a dog."
"Then..."
Mrs. Pei looked at the daughter sitting next to her, and smiled narrowly, "Do you think Chunchen is really Chunchen?"
"Throughout the ages, how many pure ministers are real pure ministers?"
"Every one of them is just maintaining neutrality on the surface, but in fact they are betting on long positions behind their backs."
"They are nothing more than wanting to have both sides, hoping that no matter which prince wins in the end, they can make a fortune."
Pei Yi thought about it, and asked: "If this is the case, what else is there to trust in Chunchen? It\'s just a hypocrite who talks about being neutral and loyal."
Mrs. Pei smiled lightly and shook her head, Pi Liyang Qiu said: "You have to look at people\'s hearts and guess the holy will."
"Whether a person is a pure minister depends on whether the emperor believes that he is a pure minister, not whether he is really a pure minister."
"If the emperor thinks he is a pure minister, then he is."
"If the Emperor thinks he isn\'t, then he isn\'t."
Pei Yi was enlightened.
To put it bluntly, who would have no selfishness? Even the pure ministers who claim to be the most loyal and honest are actually not the group of people who know the most about the holy will?
Just like his father remained neutral on the surface, but secretly allowed her to associate with the third prince in private; are other so-called pure ministers also so neutral on the surface, but have contacts with other princes or even multiple princes in secret?
"By the way, I ran into shopkeeper Wu from Jinzhou Xingye Bank at the door just now." Mrs. Pei asked curiously, "Why did he come to you?"
Xingye Bank is actually an industry run by Mrs. Pei, and these shopkeepers from various places will come to Beijing to report to her on a regular basis every year.
But now the shopkeeper Wu came to visit her daughter, which is really strange.
"That..." Pei Yi hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth.
Anyway, Xiao Junji had already released such rumors, so he was naturally ready to let her parents know his background.
What\'s more, even if she doesn\'t say it today, she can figure out the key points with a little check with her parents\' wrists.
Thinking about this, Pei Yi explained with a bit of embarrassment: "Suddenly there are some rumors in Jinzhou, saying that it is..."
said so and so.
Mrs. Pei was stunned for a long while before she sighed with emotion: "What a crime, the eldest son of the Xiao family in Jinzhou has become the servant of my Pei family."
If we really want to talk about blood relationship, the old lady of the Xiao family in Jinzhou and the deceased empress dowager are sisters.
The Xiao family can also be regarded as distant relatives of the emperor.
If the eldest son of the Xiao family is thick-skinned enough, he can also call out "Uncle Emperor".
Just such a character who was displaced when he was young, and was raised by her to serve the emperor...
Hey, I\'m afraid that Mr. Xiao will feel that life is worse than death, right?
"My Pei family is really unlucky." Mrs. Pei sighed, "If I save an ordinary son, even if I raise him with the gift of serving the emperor, he will appreciate my life-saving grace."
"But if they saved a nobleman, they would only regard this experience as a disgrace, and they might even think of wearing small shoes for my Pei family to completely bury this experience."
Pei Yi\'s face froze slightly, and her eyes became wandering due to embarrassment.
Auntie, our old Pei family didn’t just save a noble in this way.
You brought up Xiao Junji with the standard of serving the emperor.
My father raised the prince of Chu State as a dead man.
The growth of the dead is extremely strict. If you don\'t pay attention, you will die, and you have taken poison since childhood.
It\'s hard to tell whether Xiao Junji is worse, or Chu Linze (Qi Kill) is worse.
but…
"Looking at Xiao Junji\'s way now, he shouldn\'t mind this experience. We don\'t have to worry about him getting revenge on the Pei family." Pei Yi analyzed.
"Naive." Mrs. Pei patted her daughter\'s arm lightly with a double-dough fan embroidered with gold silk and black background, and said with a smile, "As long as he is a nobleman, it is impossible for him not to mind that he was once served as a servant."
"The so-called serving the emperor is to serve as a slave. If you say it, you will be ridiculed for a lifetime."
"Especially the children of nobles, they can\'t bear to have such a shameful status."
"Now that Young Master Xiao suddenly releases rumors about your close relationship with him, it\'s nothing more than that he is in a low position and wants to take advantage of my Pei family."
"If my Pei family really inadvertently revealed the news of him being a servant."
"Master Xiao doesn\'t know how he will hate us."
After hearing what her mother said, Pei Yi felt that she was still too sweet, and she was really ashamed.
"Then... I also sent people to support Xiao Junji, is that okay?" Pei Yi asked uncertainly.
"Of course it\'s no problem." Mrs. Pei smiled narrowly, "It\'s common for children of nobles to appreciate each other."
Mrs. Pei said the words "mutual appreciation" very playfully.
Pei Yi\'s heart of gossip was keenly agitated.
She seriously suspected that her mother was hinting at something.
Sure enough, the next moment, her mother used a round fan to cover half of her face, leaned in front of her and said in a low voice, gossiping: "I heard from your father that when our majesty was young, he was with that general banquet." It\'s very interesting~"
This is a bit interesting...
Pei Yi started to gossip, and couldn\'t help showing her aunt\'s smile on her face.
However, she really didn\'t know who these protagonists were, so she subconsciously asked in confusion: "General Banquet?"
"General Yan\'s name is Yan Chongdao." When Mrs. Pei said this, she excitedly patted her daughter with a round fan and exclaimed, "Oh, it\'s just a coincidence. The Yan family in Jinzhou you just mentioned is Banquet the descendants of General Chongdao."
Pei Yi: "..."
She said in the book why the old emperor indulged and favored the eldest daughter of the Yan family in Jinzhou with a kind of indulgence and love. So the problem lies here?
Oh, I must mention here that one of the reasons why Xiao Junlin, the protagonist in the original book, hates the Huo family royal family is that the old emperor of the Huo family "suspected" to covet his sweetheart\'s banquet.
"General Yan Chongdao is one of the three tiger generals who founded the Great Zhou Dynasty." Mrs. Pei smiled proudly when she said this, and said in a very embarrassing way: "Do you know who the three tiger generals are?"
Pei Yi was about to answer, but her mother-in-law triumphantly said to herself: "The three tiger generals are your father, General Yan Chongdao, and General Xun Xin."
"Your father is the first of the three tiger generals~"
"I have been in the army for decades and have never failed."
"This is simply a myth, as expected of my God of War~"
Pei Yi: "..."
She just wanted to hear gossip, not a bite of dog food.
Look at the rippling expression on your little fan girl\'s face, Aniang, it\'s simply embarrassing!
