"Please help Butler Pei." Butler Tian fell to his knees with a puff.
Pei Shun hurriedly reached out to help him, and at the same time said: "What do you say? Butler Tian, please get up quickly. If you have anything to say, just speak up. If I can do it, I will naturally not stand idly by."
"I would like to thank Butler Tian in advance for the two young masters in the family." Butler Tian got up from the ground and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves.
Pei Shun patted the back of Butler Tian's other hand and said, "Steward Tian, you must have worked hard all the way. In this way, I will serve you today, have a nice drink later, sleep well at night, and be energetic. What else can I do?" Let’s talk tomorrow.”
With that said, he pulled Butler Tian and started to leave.
However, Butler Tian stood still and said, "Butler Pei, please ask Mr. Pei for mercy and let the two young masters of the Tian family go! I beg you."
As he spoke, he knelt down again.
Pei Shun hurriedly grabbed the person and stopped Butler Tian from kneeling. At the same time, he said, "What are you talking about? What happened to the Tian family? Could it be that something happened to the two young masters of the Tian family, Zai Yang and Wei?"
"It's not Yang Hewei, it's Xuanfu. In a few days, the two young masters of the Tian family will be executed." Steward Tian said with a sad face.
Pei Shun frowned slightly when he heard this and said, "Steward Tian Laiyang and Wei may have found the wrong person. The person they are looking for in this matter should be the Xuanfu Commander-in-Chief or the Governor-General."
"But didn't we agree last time that Mr. Pei would come forward to rescue the two young masters of the Tian family." Butler Tian frowned and had a bad feeling in his heart.
Pei Shun's face sank and he said: "Steward Tian, please don't talk nonsense. When did my master promise to rescue the two young masters of the Tian family? At most, he only said that he would ask about your Tian family's affairs."
"Yes, yes, yes, it was a minor slip of the tongue. What Mr. Pei said was interfering, interfering." Steward Tian quickly admitted his mistake and slapped his right cheek with his hand.
Pei Shun said at this time: "After thinking about your Tian family's affairs, it is still inconvenient for our master to intervene. After all, the matter involves Tong Nu. Not to mention our master, even Governor Liu of Datong cannot intervene directly."
"This!" Butler Tian's face turned pale and he staggered back two steps.
Pei Shun was too lazy to talk nonsense with him and said, "Steward Tian should go back to Xuan Mansion early! I have something else to do, so I won't keep Steward Tian here."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the Yamen.
"You can't leave." Butler Tian took two steps forward, grabbed one of Pei Shun's arms, and begged, "Please Butler Pei, please let me see Mr. Pei. Nothing can happen to the two young masters of the Tian family." ah!"
Pei Shun threw away Butler Tian's hold on his arm, and said coldly: "Since your Tian family has committed slave liaisons, you should have known that this would happen. If you had known this, why did you do it in the first place!"
After saying that, he stepped up the stone steps in front of the Yamen.
"No, you can't leave." Butler Tian hurriedly chased after him.
However, the two yamen servants at the yamen gate directly blocked Housekeeper Tian from Pei Shun.
When Butler Tian saw that he could not enter the yamen, he shouted at the yamen gate: "You are the ones who received the money, you can't just take the money and do nothing."
Pei Shun, who had just walked into the Yamen, stepped back when he heard this.
Standing on the stone steps in front of the yamen, he looked down at Butler Tian and said with an indifferent expression: "You said you received money, what evidence do you have?"
At this time, Butler Tian didn't care about annoying Pei Shun in front of him, and said directly: "Last time I came, many people saw with their own eyes that I brought a wooden box full of silver, which is also from your place. The yamen servants carried the wooden box into the back yamen."
"That's right, you did bring a wooden box and carried it into the back office. However, our master didn't take your money at all and had people carry the wooden box out again." Pei Shun said with a sneer.
"This is impossible, the money was obviously stolen by you..." In the middle of his words, Butler Tian suddenly stopped.
Pei Shun stared at Butler Tian with a half-smile and said, "Why don't you say anything? It doesn't matter. I can say for you that the wooden box and the silver in the wooden box were all carried back to your carriage. At that time, more than one person watched. arrive."
"Despicable!" Butler Tian glared at Pei Shun and cursed through gritted teeth.
At this time, he understood everything, and understood why Pei Shun asked people to carry the wooden box back and put it in his carriage, because Pei Hong had no intention of saving the two young masters of the Tian family, and was prepared for the day when he would come to the door.
Pei Shun said with a cold face: "Steward Tian, if I were you, why not go back and buy two high-quality coffins so that you can collect the bodies of the two young masters of the Tian family. You can also gain a reputation as a loyal servant."
"You people will never end up well. God will punish you sooner or later." Butler Tian's body was shaking with anger.
After losing money and failing to rescue the two young masters, he was holding a breath of evil in his chest.
The Tian family is no longer the Tian family it was when Tian Shenglan was still there, and the amount of money given to Pei Hong is already the largest amount of money the Tian family can offer.
But such a sum of money, which was very important to the Tian family, was given to people like Pei Hong in vain. As the steward of the Tian family, he only felt that he was sorry for the Tian family.
Pei Shun said with an indifferent look: "For the sake of our friendship, I won't argue with you this time. If you continue to yell and insult the patrol censor in front of the Yamen, don't blame me for letting you go." If someone catches you and puts you in jail, you will have no chance to return to Xuan Mansion."
Butler Tian stared at Pei Shun fiercely.
He knew that he could not be imprisoned. He had to go back to the Xuan Mansion and try to think of other ways to save the two young masters of the Tian family. Even if he could not be rescued, he still had to bury them safely.
If he were not here, those people from the Tian family who only wanted to compete for the Tian family's property might not care about the affairs of the two young masters of the Tian family.
Butler Tian got on the carriage with an angry look on his face and left from the Yamen Gate.
"Bah! A housekeeper from a run-down Shanxi businessman is also yelling in front of me." Pei Shun spat on the ground with disdain.
In his eyes, a Shanxi merchant who had been marked as a slave was destined to be destroyed.
After driving away Butler Tian, Pei Shun returned to Houya.
"They drove them away?" Pei Hong put the tureen in his hand on the table beside him.
Pei Shun took two steps forward, stood aside, and said respectfully: "As far as I can tell you, I have already driven them away, and I promise that I will not bother you again."
"Well done." Pei Hong nodded with satisfaction.
He didn't feel any guilt at all for taking the money and not doing anything.
For him, the Tian family's money is taken away. He is a Shanxi merchant from Xuanfu. Not to mention that Tian Shenglan is no longer here. Even if Tian Shenglan is still there, the Tian family is still the powerful Shanxi merchant. He doesn't care.
