71. The Mirror of Bright Light

After Li Han was taken to his residence, Pei Niancheng just came back to his senses, and felt that he had made a mistake.

Li Han has just been beaten by himself, and it would be great if he could give the sweet date in the back.Obviously he wanted to treat Li Han better, but he gave up this opportunity to his brother.

his brother...

Thinking of this, Pei Niancheng secretly gritted his teeth for a while.Sitting in the arms of Lou Yefeng, a loyal dog shadow guard, flirting with his loyal dog every day in the mansion, and then feeding Lin Han in an open and honest manner, it is, it is...

Ah, I am so sour.

Unexpectedly, he has already issued his orders, so how could he take back his words? If he changes the order day and night, then his prestige will be lost.

So Pei Niancheng could only grind his teeth secretly while approving the memorial, wondering if he would take advantage of Li Han's three days of house arrest to express his concern?

Just thinking about it, after a while, Eunuch Wu Bingzhong walked in with silent steps to pour tea.

This father-in-law Wu Bingzhong has not been with Pei Niancheng for a long time, but he is very good at knowing the hot and the cold.

He didn't hear the conversation in the hall just now, he only knew that His Royal Highness King Yu broke into the door and sprayed His Majesty.So when he saw His Majesty's disturbed and irritated look, he thought it was His Majesty King Yu who offended him.

But the quarrel between the two brothers was Pei's own business, and Eunuch Wu thought to himself that he was not enough.So he poured the tea with the right shade, thought it over and over again in his heart, and explained softly:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty King Yu... is really a man of temperament. You have never thought that it is the duty of a minister to restrain King Yu. You are used to being unrestrained on weekdays, and what you say is different from the courtiers. If there is something biased, Your Majesty, you don't have toTake it to heart."

Pei Niancheng stopped the pen in his hand and looked at him with his head tilted.

Father-in-law Wu Bingzhong was stared at by him so that his heart was a little terrified, and he thought that he might have said the wrong thing?However, seeing that His Majesty looked like he was waiting to hear what he would say next, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue:

"Furthermore...His Royal Highness King Yu has been away from the court for a long time. If you are really dissatisfied, you can find an excuse to make him stay in the palace and not bother you. There will be no troubles, and His Majesty doesn't need to bother planning."

Pei Niancheng frowned, and the ink brush in his hand became heavier:

"Don't mention this again in the future."

Seeing that he really guessed wrong, Eunuch Wu quickly knelt down and said:

"The minister's slip of the tongue, the crime deserves ten thousand deaths."

Pei Niancheng also knew that he meant to share his worries, so he shook his head, not wanting to pursue it.It's just that he has a special relationship with his brother, so he rarely explained:

"I and King Yu are not ordinary brothers, so there is no need to treat him as a monarch and a minister. If he quarrels with me, it is the elder brother disciplining the younger brother. It is always right and proper, what is wrong?"

Eunuch Wu's heart trembled, knowing that he still underestimated His Royal Highness King Yu's position in His Majesty's heart, he hurriedly said:

"...Yes, I understand."

Then Pei Niancheng seemed to be a little emotional, and sighed:

"I came to the throne not long ago, but because of the strict methods, the king's prestige has grown day by day. Those courtiers don't say anything, but I can see clearly. When standing in front of me, there is no one whose legs are not weak under the robe."

Eunuch Wu hurriedly delivered a precise flattery:

"Your Majesty is young and heroic, and he is a wise emperor that has not been seen in Da Jing for a hundred years. All the officials will naturally obey and respect you."

Pei Niancheng pretended not to hear:

"...This is not a good thing. When I first came to the throne, the court was unstable, and I had no choice but to do many harsh things. It was just a stopgap measure, and it would actually damage the people of the community if it continued for a long time."

"King Yu... His temperament is becoming more and more frank. Apart from his natural open-mindedness, it is also because I deliberately indulge him. My brother is kind-hearted by nature, so I actually count on him to come and 'discipline' me from time to time."

"If the officials dare not dissuade him, he dares to speak out. If the officials dare not mention it, he dares to speak out. In this way, I have the only mirror left, reminding me at all times, not to lose my heart."

That Eunuch Wu Bingzhong was dumbfounded long ago, he only answered yes, saying that His Majesty is really wise.

Of course, what he thinks more in his mind is—your mirror is fine now, but if you remember what His Highness King Yu did to you when you are old and faint, if you want to turn over old scores, King YuIsn't His Highness in bad luck...

Pei Niancheng glanced at him indifferently, and saw right through what he was thinking.

But this time he didn't explain anything, after all, half of the previous ones were nonsense.The real reason why he is so kind to his brother, apart from the fact that his relationship is really good, is because he misses braised pork, hibiscus chicken, spicy lobster and boiled pork slices... and so on.

Well, don't know when his brother can get out of the oven, he wants to eat egg tarts and milk toast...

The purpose of what the above said to Eunuch Wu was to use his mouth to spread his attitude and pass it on to the courtiers who asked Eunuch Wu for gossip all day long.

In case he quarrels with his elder brother next time, the officials will naturally think, oh, His Royal Highness King Yu is speaking bluntly again.Instead of thinking about it—His Majesty was taught a lesson by his brother again...

Well, this is a long-term consideration to save face.

"Since that's the case..."

Eunuch Wu suddenly asked:

"Then, what else do you want to reward His Royal Highness King Yu for saving him at the banquet yesterday?"

Pei Niancheng's eloquent expression before suddenly froze.

Depend on!

Not only did his brother abduct his loyal dog Shadow Guard, but he also took away the reward from me!Pei Niancheng only felt the imbalance in his heart.

At this time, King Da Jing has completely forgotten that Li Han was sent there by himself...

The problem is, it doesn't work without a reward.

This kind of rescue is really a great achievement.Although it was Pei Nianyu who gave away the head for nothing with a quick wit, the officials didn't see him.

They only saw His Royal Highness King Yu's heroic rescue. If they didn't reward him, then they must have murmured in their hearts, does His Majesty have a problem with King Yu?

Pei Niancheng thought about it for a moment, and suddenly he was in a bad mood:

"It's the end of the year, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue hugs my thighs and cries for poverty every day. The Ministry of Industry will start producing a batch of new agricultural tools next year. To build rivers and build factories, money is needed everywhere, and my small coffers are all put into it..”

"How about this, don't reward King Yu's gold and silver. Find a batch of old medicinal materials that are about to expire from the warehouse and send them over."

Eunuch Wu: "..."

What about brotherhood?

However, the so-called aged medicinal materials naturally became more and more precious as they got older.His Majesty insisted on saying "it's about to expire", and he didn't know what kind of mentality it was.

In fact, Da Jing has been rich for many years, even if Pei Niancheng started to build infrastructure after he came to power, how could he not be able to get this little reward.He was just unbalanced in his heart, so he was trying to find some excuses for his brother...

Eunuch Wu got the handbook and went to handle it quickly.

And Pei Niancheng ordered the judge of Taitai Hospital to take care of Li Han's injury, but at the same time, he said something superfluous:

"Recover quickly, you will be busy later."

After Li Han saw this note, he was naturally happy, but at the same time felt a little inexplicably disappointed.

The joy is that His Majesty still relies on him; the loss is naturally... His Majesty is probably only concerned about him so that he can get up and work quickly...

…………

In King Yu Palace.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, Pei Nianyu, who had been hungry all night, felt his stomach rumbling, so he urged Lou Yefeng to cook him a caring meal for the sick.

Lou Yefeng naturally thought that when he was injured, he should eat lightly.However, Pei Nianyu had just quarreled with Pei Niancheng, and he was very angry. After thinking about it, he suddenly said:

"I want to eat boiled fish."

Lou Yefeng's complexion changed slightly:

"...Seafood is a hair product, absolutely not."

"Then spicy tofu."

"Master... well, but master, you should be less greedy."

"Yeah, let's do it."

Lou Yefeng went to prepare meals by himself.He Qi, on the other hand, stared at Pei Nianyu with two big dark circles under his eyes, with resentment in his eyes:

"Master, this subordinate would like to ask for three hours' leave... go back... sleep for a while."

"Huh? You... it's time for you to change shift?"

Thinking about it, it was past noon when Pei Nianyu woke up from the palace, and it was almost dusk when he returned to the mansion.He Qi has always been in charge of the night watch, but he should be on duty again.

Pei Nianyu was very puzzled:

"Did you not rest last night?"

He Qi was about to cry:

"Master, you were assassinated in the palace last night. It was extremely thrilling. Your subordinates only brought four shadow guards into the palace. Naturally, they guarded you all night. How dare you rest for a while?"

"……This……"

Counting before they entered the palace, Pei Nianyu dragged He Qi to help him stay up all night studying recipes, and he hadn't closed his eyes for two days and two nights in a row.

Pei Nianyu suddenly felt very embarrassed:

"Sure, sure, then go to sleep and let Jiang Xue keep vigil."

"...Thank you, master."

…………

Not long after, Lou Yefeng's food was ready and delivered.

Pei Nianyu looked at the bright red spicy tofu, and his appetite whetted immediately. He was about to pick up his chopsticks to start eating, but suddenly put down his hand again, and turned to look at Lou Yefeng:

"Ye Feng, my arm is injured and I can't hold the chopsticks. Come and feed me!"

Lou Yefeng: "..."

No, master, it is obviously your left arm that was injured!Does it have something to do with you holding chopsticks???

He looked at the master very tangled, but saw the master's expression of command:

"Didn't you say that you are my shadow guard? Naturally, I have to do things like this for you."

"..."

However, Pei Nianyu also felt that he was really being unreasonable and making trouble a little bluntly. The real purpose of "letting Ye Feng feed him" was naturally that the ulterior motive was not to drink, and he took advantage of the meal to molested him, so he sincerely made up for it.said a sentence:

"Ye Feng feeds me and I recover quickly. After my injury is healed, I can practice martial arts well."

Lou Yefeng immediately moved the chair and sat next to the owner, picked up the spoon:

"...This is what you said, master. As long as you are willing to learn martial arts with your heart, you can ask your subordinates to do anything."

When Pei Nianyu saw that he offered to deliver it to his door, there was no reason not to hesitate.So she pretended to be hurt and weak and leaned into his arms:

"Come, come, I want to drink a spoonful of soup first."

Lou Yefeng: "..."

He was caught off guard by his master, and with a shake of his hand, the soup in the spoon almost spilled out.

Then he settled down, in this posture...he could only wrap his arms around the master and feed...

Lou Yefeng lowered his head, and carefully fed his master a spoonful of soup.But he didn't realize that the master's beautiful hair brushed against his neck, and he was naturally distracted.

Pei Nianyu didn't need to look much to guess that the person behind him must have blushed quietly again.Feeling the warmth surrounded by the black clothes behind him, he smiled very contentedly with an expression of success.

Lou Yefeng saw the master's expression, remembered the words Li Han reprimanded earlier, suddenly his heart shivered, and he suppressed those thoughts.

What did Li Han say about him before, that he didn't fulfill his duties, didn't teach his master well, and flirted all day long?

Lou Yefeng looked at the master in his arms and squinted his eyes.

How could Lou Yefeng be an incompetent shadow guard...

The author has something to say:

Pei Niancheng: I'm Hu Kan's full-level player.

Pei Nianyu: This king is a full-level tofu eater...
