"Has the trouble finally reached this point? Let's check it out and turn it upside down." Regarding the disasters of beasts and ghosts and many evils in the Jingda Domain Academy; whether it is the General Affairs Department or the Minister of Finance , or the big shots at the center of power in the Third Division, but they were a little uneasy.
"These children of the vassal family, relying on the relationship between the Lifan and Zongfan houses, have caused difficulties for Yusi in recent years. It's just a good time to reorganize and establish their authority." On the contrary, His Royal Highness, who stayed in Shangjing, showed this. Pay more attention and participate in the attitude, and smile to the left and right. "But how could this matter be involved from the other side of Lixingyuan?"
Someone immediately replied: "It's not Supervisor Jiang who captured the melon vines and vines from Shangzhou's rare items when they were robbed..."
"It is said that since he was used by the imperial court, he has always been able to make mistakes in matters related to the disaster of beasts and ghosts. Is it accurate to catch one every time? Isn't there almost no failure?"
"There are rumors that this person has a pair of divine eyes that are specialized in distinguishing monsters and foreign objects. This is one of the abilities that was awakened not long ago."
"So, I heard that the Holy One intends to recruit him into the palace and serve as the chief guard; even his wife will be the daughter of each master..."
"Don't mention this matter again. The other side of the political hall is determined not to pass it. The princes of the outer dynasty still need to count on him to train more manpower!"
"There is also news in Lixingyuan that among the sergeants under his command, there are also some who are different from ordinary people. I am afraid that they were not able to do so because of his guidance and guidance..."
"Now the Privy Council and the General Office are also thinking about how to use these foreign objects to give the soldiers some additional specialties."
"As for Wudesi, it is said that someone is trying to capture and tame some of the wild beasts and ghosts, and use them for their own purposes."
"Your Highness, you may know that at the Qingzheng Department, there are also people practicing and rehearsing the body-building and qi-subduing methods respectively presented by Louguan Taoism and Maoshan Sect."
"In addition, Master Shanguo from Daqinglong Temple and Zhengjuehua from Shaolin Temple also presented ancient classics on self-cultivation and physical training to the court."
"Your Majesty, does your Highness know that there is a batch of secret medicine that has been recently sent from Dongdu in the Imperial Hospital? It is said that as long as it is not a serious injury that has severed heads and limbs, it can be saved."
In the Pei Mansion in Daozhengfang, there is also an unknown scene that is playing out in the Jiannian Hall inside. The head of the Pei family, who was sitting at the top, looked at his daughter with a solemn face, and sighed deeply: "Hui Niang, have you really thought about it? Once you take that step, I'm afraid there will be no way back... …”
"Of course my daughter knows, and she has also thought clearly." Sister A, who looked elegant and quiet in a gorgeous long dress that fell to the floor, said softly with the same seriousness: "This matter is a decision that my daughter has thought about over and over again, and it is not a temporary decision. Impulsive, after all, I have long passed the age of acting recklessly."
"But, Huixiang! After all, you are the Pei family's daughter, my sister...how can you wrong yourself so much?" The elder brother Pei Wuben who was standing next to him was a little anxious: "If you want to interact with her, there is no one in the family. Any obstacle; but you know what he is doing and what kind of situation he has to face."
According to Pei Wuben's idea, maintaining the current state is good. Not only can you maintain sufficient bonds and connections with the other party, but you can also stay out of it when the time is right. After all, among the upper-class families in the capital, this kind of secret communication is not uncommon; not to mention that she is a widow.
But this little girl, who was always calm and admirable, was possessed by some evil spirit at this moment, or she was moved by her true feelings as a child, and she actually wanted to stand with the other party further. You know, that person not only has unfathomable hidden abilities, but has also become the center of the current trend.
Whether it was his personal position as an elder brother or his public spirit as the official leader of the Pei family; he didn't feel it was worth it. Even if Mr. Pei has an urgent need to win over and make good friends with the other party, he should find other alternative means and objects. Not to mention my sister who has sacrificed so much for the family.
"Of course Hui Niang knows, and he has also expressed his concerns about brother; but I forgive Hui Niang for being unable to bear it for a long time, and she still wants to face it and share it with him." After hearing this, Sister A faintly expressed nostalgia and sadness. With a caring expression, he smiled and said: "So, this is not that Mrs. Pei condescended to make friends, but that I took the initiative to become his burden and concern..."
"Hui Niang, there is no need to make such a hasty decision. You can continue to interact for some time to get to know each other better." Pei Wuben wanted to give some more advice. In desperation, he suddenly started to speak arbitrarily: "If It's just to repay a favor or for other reasons; in fact, there are better ways and methods! Why should you..."
"Brother! Are you humiliating me? Or are you humiliating the entire Pei family?" However, the next moment, I saw my sister's beautiful eyes rising up, faintly choking and saying harshly: "This is what I have done all these years. , the final decision after experiencing a lot of confusion and frustration; because I was really afraid of missing it, and really missed everything."
Because, if it weren't for the fact that Li Huan, who was arranged by her family to listen to her, would send back some scraps of news from time to time; she didn't even know that even the Tian family in Da Nei had already expressed concern about this "exiled immortal" who was suspected of awakening from the mortal world. He put his mind into it and kept trying to secure media and create opportunities again and again.
"That's enough! Wuben, you made a mistake, please step aside." The head of the Pei family, who was at the top and had remained silent, suddenly spoke up, interrupting Pei Wuben who was about to continue saying something: "Hui Niang, don't I want to To hinder or restrict you, it’s just that the current time may not be the most suitable; you know that he has just involved a number of princes and vassals from the vassal academy..."
"If this is not the case, how can I express my feelings? Father, please let your daughter do this for once." Sister A did not hesitate and solemnly took up her skirts and knelt on the ground and said: "Even if it is necessary, Facing possible inexplicable dangers and crises... no matter what, this is my daughter's own decision and destiny."
"In this case, I can't say anything more." The head of the Pei family sighed heavily, and his well-maintained, fair-haired face seemed to have a trace of old-fashioned weakness: "Later, I will instruct everyone in the family to deliver the goods to you; in addition, the dowry that my wife left for you will also be sent over later."
However, when my sister, who was full of emotions, finally said goodbye and left. The head of the Pei family breathed a sigh of relief. The heaviness and entanglement of being an old father suddenly disappeared, and he revealed some indescribable lightness and joy.
"In the end, Hui Niang is much more discerning about people. If you had her determination and determination, you wouldn't have been entangled in right and wrong in the early years." The head of the Pei family looked at the eldest son Pei Wuben meaningfully: "It's a pity that she She was born as a daughter, and she was born into my family, so she was wasted and hindered..."
His eldest son is considered a seriously injured choice in other aspects, but he is too promiscuous in love affairs, so that he has been entangled and involved with many mistresses for so many years; his daughter, who is more considerate, quiet and intelligent, has been married to an unkind person. Because of this, everyone has become stubborn and will not let go once they are sure.

Not to mention, there is another person who came to have a son in old age, but due to some reasons that are not common to outsiders, he was destined to be the heir of another family at birth. As a result, he was a little misdisciplined and too laissez-faire in his early years, and This resulted in a young son who had a reclusive temperament and acted eccentrically, becoming a shame to the family.
"That's what Aye said." However, Pei Wuben agreed with a helpless smile without much dissatisfaction: at least compared to the younger brother who was regarded as troublesome, he was still quite considerate of the sister who once served as half of the family. Convinced. "But no matter what, I think I should help if I can."
"That's natural. Even if Huiniang said she would try to distance herself from the family to avoid further involvement. In the eyes of outsiders, aren't she and the family one?" The head of the Pei family shook his head and said, "I am Mr. Pei. The status that has always been aloof from the government and the opposition is not achieved by being afraid of difficulties and trying to please everyone."
Not long after Pei Wuben left, an old servant with gray hair and a boyish face walked out from the back wall and asked the Pei family leader: "My lord, everything you told me has been arranged; however, the old servant thought that... After all these years, it seems rare for you to be so happy!"
"Of course I will be happy and relieved." The head of the Pei family replied more and more relaxedly: "Because the Tian family has also seen the key point and wants to get this benefit for nothing; but they don't want my daughter to be more competitive and have already taken the lead. One step occupies a key position. In the art of war game, what is this called?"
So, when Jiang Tian, who was busy with other things, finally ended the last round of house searches and inspections, and returned to the vicinity of Qujiang Garden under the stars and the moon; when he saw Qingqi Garden from a distance, he couldn't help but feel that tonight The lights seemed to be even brighter than usual.
Of course, with the successive intervention of relevant departments such as the prison guards and the management of the princes and vassals on behalf of the palace, the Xijingli branch/branch was finally freed from the complicated aftermath matters; and returned to the focus on Among the duties of abnormal things and their clues.
Therefore, the person who had just been raided by his team was a wealthy businessman/tycoon in the Western Market - Wang Ruowan; because he was the biggest conspiracy behind many associations and places among the feudal sects suspected of secretly conducting prohibited experiments. The sponsors and big benefactors are also involved in the disappearance of some fanfangs.
Unfortunately, no clues related to beasts and ghosts were found; evidence that could implicate him was found in the cattle and horse shop and slaughterhouse run by his family in Chengxiafang, including some deformed human and animal skeletons; as well as secret sacrifices. underground place. Therefore, searching his home is more like a disguised reward.
Because, according to the system inherited from the imperial reform in the Taixing period, the behavior of confiscating houses has become a detailed and routine system. There are also relatively detailed regulations on the overall process regarding the number of personnel involved in house raids and the rank of officials. As a price, the team responsible for ransacking the house can get a share.
That is to say, according to the imperial court's instructions, the goods finally copied from the other party are priced, and a discount of 10% to 30% is obtained; and then distributed to everyone involved layer by layer according to the rank of third, sixth or ninth grade. Just like Jiang Tian, as the chief official, he can probably get more than a thousand yuan of discount money this time.
Then, he changed hands and invested it in the association fund under the name of the Supervisor, which was used to subsidize the casualties. Therefore, Jiang Tian was in a pretty good mood at this time. As he dismounted and walked into the door, he heard the faint sound of pipa music coming from the direction of Tingliu Xiaozhu; and there was also the faint aroma of wine and food.
