Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 469 Conflict between cousin and Li Xiang

 The weather was still good, so Pei Yunqian left the palace early and rode to Lan Mansion.

Taiguo's uncle Lan Zhengyong was over fifty years old. He was very happy to see Pei Yunqian. The uncle and nephew chatted in the hall until noon. The little girl came in and reported: "Master, the old lady has ordered someone to be at the banquet." A banquet has been prepared in the hall, please invite my cousin to come and enjoy the banquet."

Pei Yunqian followed Uncle Taiguo to the banquet hall. Lan Zhengyong's old wife Zhong was waiting in the hall. Pei Yunqian respectfully stepped forward to salute and say hello. When Mrs. Zhong saw Pei Yunqian, she was so excited that she wiped her eyes and said, "Back then, When your Pei family left Beijing, you were only seven years old. Ouch, time is not forgiving. Now that Brother Qian has grown up, please let your aunt have a good look. Ouch, you are really talented. It's a pity for you. Mom left too early."

When Lan Zhengyong saw Mr. Zhong mentioning those sad old things again, he said angrily to his old wife: "It's all in the past. What's the point of bringing it up all the time? Isn't Brother Qian back now? Today's saints have great reputations and are recruiting talented people." , If Brother Qian can win the martial arts examination this time, with his character and talent, he will definitely be able to accomplish great things in the future and shine brightly again."

"Yes, yes, Brother Qian has been smart and sensible since he was a child. He can't do anything wrong." Mrs. Zhong wiped away her tears, looked at Pei Yunqian up and down, and sighed slightly: "It's a pity that your Pei family has a scholarly family, and now Brother Qian But you have to rely on martial arts to gain fame."

"What's wrong with the military examinations? Today, the emperor wants to strengthen the army and rejuvenate the country, and he has already valued the military examinations and the imperial examinations together." After saying that, Uncle Lan Taiguo waved his hands and said: "That's all, you woman doesn't understand, please let them go Let’s have dinner.”

Zhong gave her husband a look and called the little girls to come to the table.

After a while, the maid put a table of delicacies. Lan Zhengyong took Pei Yunqian to the table. Pei Yunqian personally poured a glass of wine for Pei Zhengyong and his wife, and first raised a glass to the two elders.

 Lan Zhengyong saw that although Pei Yunqian had experienced the decline of his family, this young man was steady and polite, and behaved like a noble man. He felt deeply in his heart, and at the banquet he talked to him about the current affairs of the DPRK.

As a woman, Mrs. Zhong naturally did not focus on this. She took advantage of her husband's conversation with Pei Yunqian and asked, "Brother Qian, you are already twenty-six this year."

Pei Yunqian said respectfully: "My aunt has a good memory, and my nephew is exactly twenty-six this year."

Mrs. Zhong muttered to herself: "I remember you are two years older than Pingyang." After saying that, she asked again: "Have you ever married a wife now?"

Lanzheng and Yongzheng were chatting happily with Pei Yunqian. When he saw his old wife interrupting him, he said displeasedly: "Why do you ask this?"

Mrs. Zhong retorted: "Children's marriage is a big deal. Let me ask what's wrong?"

Pei Yunqian smiled and replied: "I haven't married yet."

Zhong asked again: "Have you made an engagement yet?"

Pei Yunqian replied: "Even the engagement has not been finalized yet."

"Ah, ah, you're so old, why aren't you engaged yet?" As she said that, Mrs. Zhong couldn't help but sigh: "It's just that your mother died too early. Look, this child is so old now. The marriage hasn't been settled yet, so my aunt will help you keep an eye on what kind of girl you like."

Lan Zhengyong said displeasedly: "The child has just returned to Beijing, and it's time to do something. Why worry about the marriage?"

Mrs. Zhong retorted: "The marriage between a man and a woman is such a big deal, how can we be vague about it? That child in Pingyang made such a mistake when her aunt chose her from thousands of people. Brother Qian's mother passed away early. As elders, we should not How about worrying more?"

Pei Yunqian originally didn't pay attention to Zhong's words, but he was respectful and polite out of the respect of the younger generation for the elders. Now that he heard her say that there was something wrong with Pingyang's marriage, Pei Yunqian took it to heart.

He looked at Mrs. Zhong and said solemnly: "Aunt, is there anything wrong with my cousin marrying the Duke of Zhenguo? Has she had a bad life in the past few years?"

Mentioning this, Madam Zhong let out a long sigh and replied: "The family tradition of Zhenguo Gongfu is pure and upright, so there is nothing wrong with it. That uncle from Pingyang has a good character and does not act like a playboy. It's just that in the past few days, Because of a concubine in the year, alas! The couple got into trouble and ended up getting divorced."

Pei Yunqian asked doubtfully: "Did the third son of the Li family cause any trouble and spoiled his concubine and destroyed his wife?"

When Mrs. Zhong saw Pei Yunqian asking about it, she told everything about Li Xiang and Jiao Xing.

Pei Yunqian's expression became more solemn as he listened. When he heard that Pingyang, who was pregnant, unfortunately fell into the water, Li Xiang actually left her to save a concubine. He, who had always been steady and modest, was so angry that he slammed the table and said angrily: " This Li Xiang is really unreasonable!"

At the west border of Wujin, Li Xiang returned from duty. He saw Pei Yunqian just after he left Xuande Gate after riding his horse.

Li Xiang quickly dismounted and walked up to him, but just as he was about to exchange greetings, Pei Yunqian punched him in the face. Li Xiang was suddenly knocked to the ground. He got up, looked at Pei Yunqian in disbelief, and asked Said: "Cousin, what are you doing?"

As soon as he said these words, Pei Yunqian threw another punch. Li Xiang was unable to dodge and received another heavy punch.

Before he could speak this time, Pei Yunqian stepped forward, grabbed him by the collar, and cursed with a splitting eye: "You bastard, you actually ignored Pingyang for a concubine, I can't beat you to death to relieve the hatred in my heart. ” ˆ ˆ Li Xiang then understood the reason why he was beaten.

He looked at Pei Yunqian, with blazing anger in his eyes, and replied: "You don't need to take care of the affairs between us husband and wife."

As he said that, he punched Pei Yunqian and the two men fought fiercely with each having their own agenda.

Li Xiang's followers struggled to pull the two apart. The boys forced themselves to help Li Xiang get on the horse. Pei Yunqian pointed at Li Xiang and cursed: "You kid, don't dare to betray Pingyang again." , I, Pei Yunqian, will definitely not be able to spare you."

Li Xiang sat on the horse and turned to glare at Pei Yunqian: "Pingyang is my wife, it's not your surname Pei's turn to protect her."

When Li Xiang returned to Xianglinyuan, Pingyang was immersed in accounting. She looked up and saw Li Xiang startled.

One side of Li Xiang's face was swollen, and there was blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. He was covered in dust, and the sleeves of his official uniform were half torn off. He was in a miserable state.

 “What’s going on?” Pingyang exclaimed.

The accompanying boy replied: "Did the prince fight with Mr. Pei on his way back?"

After Pingyang heard what the young man said, she thought about it for a while and wondered: "Which Mr. Pei?"

Li Xiang said coldly: "Who else is Mr. Pei? It's your good cousin."

Pingyang finally realized it was Pei Yunqian. She asked anxiously: "Okay, how could you two fight like this?"

At this moment, Lan Tian hurried in from the outside and replied: "Madam, the young master cousin is moving out soon. He is here to say goodbye to you. Please go over and take a look."

Ha ha! Finally I’ve written what everyone wants to read!

Ah Que's new book "After Giving Your Husband's Sweetheart a Position" has been released. You are welcome to take a look!

Love watched helplessly as her husband Sima Chao married the princess to fulfill his ambition, and she couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

Sima Chao hugged her into his arms and coaxed softly: "Afu, you are the only one in my heart. If you are worthy of the country, I will definitely set you right."

Love believed him because she was obsessed with him.

It wasn’t until Sima Chao killed the flesh and blood of his princess wife that he was about to enter the house with his own hands that Love realized how much sincerity a person who was cruel to his own children could have towards her.

　　　It's just that he is lying and she is obsessed with it.

Love finally saw clearly the person next to her. She was completely heartbroken and died in despair the day before Sima Chao married the princess in glory.

Starting over, Love decided not to make the same mistakes again, but when she opened her eyes, she saw the whole house filled with joy, and she actually returned to her wedding night with Sima Chao.

　　—

He thought: If she can treat the world well, he will give her the highest status in the world, and it will not be too late to slowly repay the deep love he owes her.

As everyone knows, if you miss something, it will be hard to get it back. When he turned back to her, she had already turned away.

He won the world and had everything, but he only lost her.

When Sima Chao saw her smiling broadly at the man beside her, he finally became anxious, his eyes turned red, and he regretted it.
