Not long after, the servant led Gong Peiyin to come.Pei Yin saw that everyone was standing in the courtyard without saying a word, and Shu Yin was exhausted and supported by others, but he didn't know what it meant, he saw an old man standing by the door of the inner room, with a straight waist and hands behind his back , eyebrows raised slightly, eyes piercing, and dignified, one knew that he was General Dong.He unhurriedly stepped forward, rolled up his sleeves and bowed, and said, "Greetings, General."

Dong Qu saw that his face was handsome, his body was upright, and his demeanor was very unrestrained, so he nodded and said, "You are Gong Peiyin?"

Pei Yin said, "It's right here."

Dong Qu said, "How did you become Yin'er's teacher?"

General Pei Yin said, when he suddenly saw Shu Hui winking at him beside Dong Qu, he knew what he meant, so he bowed to Dong Qu again and said, "How can you be the young master's teacher if you have no talent or virtue? The lessons were taught by the other three gentlemen."

Dong Qu said, "Why did I hear others say that Mr. Gong is the teacher who taught Yin'er Kung Fu?" He glanced at Shu Hui as he spoke.

Pei Yin cupped his fists and said, "Back then, I met Director Luo by chance at the border of Wei Tuo, and he recommended me to be a groom in the mansion. My uncle knew that I could work hard, so he allowed me to study with the young master, and the young master is humble and kind. , is often willing to ask me for advice, so I taught him a few moves that won't make it to the stage."

Seeing that he was calm and unhurried, Dong Qu only took him to be telling the truth, and said, "So Yin'er learned these skills by accident?"

Pei Yin said, "The young master is talented and intelligent, he has a photographic memory, I just give some pointers from the side, and he can understand by analogy, so I really dare not call myself the young master's teacher."

Although Dong Qu was indifferent towards Shu Yin, he was his grandson after all, and he was overjoyed to hear people praise him so much, so he spared Pei Yin's courtesy and said, "Mr. Gong is too modest." Then he said, "You are me. As a servant of the family, with this talent, I will promote you in the future."

Pei Yin thanked him respectfully.

Shu cypress stood on the side with a blank expression on his hands.

At the evening banquet, except for the caring words of Dong's father and daughter, the rest of the people were silent, and only answered a few questions when they asked themselves occasionally.Shu Yin usually only eats half a meal before running out to play, but today she obediently stays with her until the meal is over.Although Wen Ran is said to be an important guest of the general's mansion, he is actually the same as Shu Hui, and Shao Jun is under house arrest here.At this moment, he didn't go to the table to eat and drink with Shu Yin as usual, but opened another table under the table to eat with Luo An and other managers.

After the meal was finished and refreshments and tea were served, Dong Qu was tired after running around for several days, and at night he yawned twice, and got up to leave, but Shu Hui and others did not stay behind, and escorted him out of the door respectfully.Before going out, Dong Qu suddenly turned his head, pointed to Shu Hui and said, "Come to court with me tomorrow."

Shu Hui didn't know what was going to happen in court tomorrow, and his heart hung on until the night, waiting for Mrs. Dong to sleep before avoiding the serving maid and going to the study.Luo An was waiting at the door early, saw Shu Hui hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and called out, "His Royal Highness..." Shu Hui stopped immediately with a wave of his hand, pulled Luo An's sleeve into the study, closed the door, and said, " What news can I hear?"

Luo An bowed and said respectfully, "According to the court's ears and eyes, Shao Jun urgently recruited Dong Qu back to the court this time because of the rebellion of the three kingdoms of Mobei, Mengge, and Yisang."

Shu Hui asked in surprise, "Rebellion? Why is this unheard of before?"

Luo An said, "In fact, the rebellion has not yet started. Officials sent by the imperial court in the three places have recently sent secret reports that the three major vassal states headed by Mo Bei have formed an alliance, and will soon send envoys to negotiate the independence of each of them as a vassal state. "

Shuhui nodded and said, "The north of the Mobei is now dominated by Mobei, plus Mengge and Yisang, if Shaojun doesn't agree, I'm afraid a fierce battle will be inevitable." Then Fuxu said, "So It must be for this reason that Dong Qu came back to court."

Luo An said, "His Royal Highness, this is a great opportunity from heaven. If the King of Yue takes advantage of this rebellion to send troops to attack the rogue country, I am afraid that the rogue country will pour out its troops to suppress Mobei and other subordinate countries. In this way, freedom and royal dignity can be regained."

Shu Hui turned his back to Luo An, pondered for a moment before saying, "The Yue Kingdom will definitely defeat the gangster country by taking advantage of the rebellion. Once it is shameful, the reputation of the Yue Kingdom will also shake the world..."

Luo An immediately said, "So, Your Highness also agrees to this move, and my subordinates will notify the Yue Kingdom outside the city overnight to ambush, so that the King of Yue can prepare early."

Shu Hui's expression was dignified, and he waved his hands after a long silence, "Don't act in a hurry, let's see how the situation is. If Shao Jun agrees with them becoming an independent vassal, any rash actions by the Yue Kingdom will be at our disadvantage."

Luo An asked anxiously, "Why can't your Highness figure it out? Since Shao Jun hastily sent Dong Qu back to the mansion, it means that he will not agree to the request of Mobei and other vassal states. What's more, if the gangster country agrees, all countries will think that the gangster country is afraid." A mere subordinate country, when the time comes, the momentum and majesty of the gangster country will be greatly damaged, and if the Yue country wants to send troops to crusade, is it afraid that there will be no country to form an alliance?"

Shu Hui squinted at Luo An, and said unhurriedly, "I don't know what Luo Taiwei said, but if the Yue Kingdom really sends troops, our lives may be in danger. Although this move seems to be beneficial to the Yue Kingdom, it is actually It is a small benefit but a big harm. Now that the King of Yue is old, and I have been trapped in a gangster for a long time, there must have been dissidents in the Yue Kingdom long ago who coveted the throne and secretly plotted to rebel. If I die here, although my son Shu Rong is still in the Yue Kingdom , but he is young after all, when someone planned a coup d'état, I am afraid that Rong'er will not be able to resist, and the surrounding countries will take advantage of the civil strife and attack the Yue country one after another, wouldn't the Yue country be doomed?"

Luo An heard Shu Hui's sincere and far-sighted words, so he quickly kowtowed to plead guilty, "Your Highness's words are very true. Luo An only cared about the immediate interests and pushed the country of Yue into a deep quagmire. It is really dereliction of duty. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

Shu Hui helped him up, and said, "This is Taiwei Luo's loyalty, how can I blame you. It's just the current situation, let's wait and see how it changes, don't startle the snake."

Luo An bowed and said yes.

Because Pei Yin was called to Dong Qu to answer, and then had dinner with Luo An and others, so he still had no chance to see Xie Lan at night.After finally waiting for the people around to quiet down, I took the jade hairpin in my sleeve and went to the front of Jianlan's house. I saw that there was light in the house, but I didn't dare to knock on the door rashly because of my own status. Yun Su, the girl from the same room, came out, and Pei Yin hurried forward.Seeing a figure suddenly jumping out of the darkness, Yun Su was taken aback. When he saw that it was Gong Peiyin, he just said with a smile, "Mr. Gong, why haven't you rested yet?"

Pei Yin made a bow and said respectfully, "I wonder if Miss Xilan is in the house?"

Yun Su covered her mouth and smiled when she heard this, "I came here to find Sister Qian."

Pei Yin's neck felt hot, and he quickly denied it, "No, no, I happened to walk here."

Yun Su leaned lightly on the door frame, squinted at Pei Yin, her eyes seemed meaningful, and said, "Then how can you ask Elder Sister Yan right away?"

Pei Yin hurriedly said, "It's nothing important, I just happened to pass by, and it's reasonable to come to say hello."

Seeing his flustered expression, Yun Su knew that he was not telling the truth, so she intentionally teased him, "Then why does Mr. only think of saying hello to elder sister Yan, but not me?"

Pei Yin immediately clasped his fists in front of his chest, "How is Miss Yunsu?"

Yun Su pretended to be disdainful, "You only greeted me after I told you, so you don't really wish me well."

Seeing her annoyed expression, Pei Yin hurriedly apologized.But Yun Su burst out laughing, turned around and entered the room after laughing, and smiled at Pei Yin when she closed the door, "Sir, Elder Sister Qian is still serving in the young master's room right now." After saying that, she closed it. The door was clear and bright on a moonlit night, only Gong Peiyin was left standing in front of the door.

Pei Yin went to Shu Yin's house again, because he was a teacher, so he didn't have to worry too much, so Pei Yin knocked on the door, and the little girl who accompanied the night came to open the door, and when he saw that it was Pei Yin, he ran to the room to inform Shu Yin.Shu Yin had already slept on the bed, and rushed out to greet him, "Why is Mr. here, come in quickly."

Pei Yin entered the room and looked around, except for the two little girls who served all night, he didn't see Xie Lan, he suddenly understood in his heart that Yun Su must be teasing him, so he couldn't help laughing wryly.Shu Yin personally poured tea for him, and seeing the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he asked, "Sir, is there anything funny you want to tell me?"

Pei Yin hurriedly restrained his expression, took Shu Yin's tea, and said, "Seeing the young master in the courtyard today seems to be very tired, I wonder what kind of kung fu did the master take?"

Shu Ying Da Ci sat in the chair, folded his legs, sat cross-legged on it, with a bitter look on his face, and said, "Mr. Why bother to mention him." Then he shook the palm of the mountain with Xuanyue as he was playing, Dong Qu No matter how difficult it was for him, he vomited out all the bitterness.

Pei Yin said, "So that's the case. In fact, the young master didn't need to be brave at the time. The master deliberately used a tree branch to suppress you. You just need to fall to the ground immediately."

Shu led, "How can I do that? Wouldn't it be a joke for people to see?"

Pei Yin shook his head lightly, and said with a smile, "Young master doesn't know something. If the master wants to use a branch to suppress you, he must put all his strength on his wrist. If the young master takes advantage of the situation and falls down, the master will lose his strength for a while, and his body will collapse." Even if you balance, you will fall."

Shu Yin stared, surprised, "Really?"

Pei Yin said, "When have I ever lied to you?"

Shu Yin jumped down from the chair and took Pei Yin's hand, "Sir, you have this trick, why didn't you teach it to me earlier."

Pei Yin sipped his tea and said, "Kungfu and martial arts are for self-protection and helping the weak, not for showing off to others. If you fight against others, how can the young master be easily suppressed with a tree branch?"

Shu Yin nodded.

Seeing that Xie Lan was not in the room, Pei Yin stayed for a while before leaving.But Shu Yin remembered what Pei Yin said to Dong Qu, and asked, "Sir, Yin'er is unclear about something."

Pei Yin turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

Shu led the way, "Today, grandpa asked sir if he was the teacher who taught me martial arts, why didn't sir admit it?"

Pei Yin didn't think that he would ask about this, so he froze immediately, and said after a while, "Didn't the young master realize that even though what I said was not the truth, the son-in-law who knows the truth didn't accuse me?"

Shu Yin frowned slightly, "You mean this is what dad meant, then I don't understand why dad doesn't want grandpa to..."

Pei Yin hurriedly interrupted, "You and I don't know what my aunt's original intention is, so don't speculate at this moment. It's just that since the general and aunt like what I said, why not do it." out the door.

As soon as Xie Lan returned to the room, Yun Su teased her and said, "Mr. Shicai has been here."

Xie Lan was washing her hands and face, she was startled when she heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What are you doing here, sir?"

Yun Su was still giggling, and said, "Isn't it just to find elder sister Qian?" After finishing speaking, she lightly bumped Xiang Lan with her shoulder.

Xie Lan blushed, and chased Yun Su to pinch her face, "Damn girl, the older you get, the more unruly you become."

Yun Su hid and shouted, "Sister Xie no longer cares about sisterhood because of her lover, alas, please forgive me..." It turned out that Qian Lan grabbed her, stretched out her hands and was scratching her armpit, Yun Su couldn't help itching, and laughed Tears came out, begging for mercy repeatedly.

Xie Lan stopped, put her hands on her hips, glared deliberately and said, "Look at you still talking nonsense."

Yun Su blushed with a smile, wiped away her tears, and only said, "Don't dare, don't dare again."

Only then did Xie Lan let her go, pretending to have no intention of asking, "What did you say, sir?"

Yun Su snickered with her back turned away, and managed to hold back before saying, "Mister didn't say anything, I told him you were in the young master's room."

Xie Lan stomped her feet suddenly, "Why are you lying to him?"

Yun Su said, "My sister is in a hurry to see him, I'm afraid I can see him again in the young master's room now."

Xie Lan shouted angrily, "Little hooves are really itchy today!"

It happened that Gong Peiyin passed by and heard the two of them laughing in the room. He listened carefully to the voice of Xie Lan. He was hesitating whether to knock on the door, but when he heard Yun Su say, "Sister Xie is for my lover..." I was frightened and dared not go any further. He moved, stretched his hand out of his sleeve and pinched the hosta.

Pei Yin stood at the door for a moment, the two were arguing, and all the gossip fell into his ears.Pei Yin thought that he was eavesdropping here, after all, it was not the work of a gentleman. He was about to leave when he saw a figure printed on the window paper, then the window was opened, a wooden basin was handed out of the window, and a basin of water poured down. Pei Yin couldn't dodge in time, and the boot on his left foot was completely soaked.
