Chapter four hundred and forty-eight high officials? Are willing to(2/2)
Yan Shifan's one-eyed eyes swept across Shangguan Ting's graceful body under his thin clothes.
"I'm hiding in this palace, you want to provide me with food and drink!"
Shangguan Ting naturally didn't want to keep the plague god in the palace, but she couldn't let Yan Shifan be caught, and she would implicate herself at that time, so she found a way to hide Yan Shifan in the palace, and this hiding was hidden until the emperor died...
"She hid Yan Shifan in her yard?"
Wu Xinan asked, Pei He shook his head,
"No...she hid Yan Shifan in the Buddhist temple of Princess Chen..."
The small Buddhist temple was where the princess Chen, who worshiped the Buddha alone, was very quiet. As long as Shangguan Ting didn't say anything, Yan Shifan would not be able to find out even if he stayed in the new emperor!
Pei He sighed,
"This is also the great destiny of King Yu. He has been serving in the palace. If he went to the princess's temple on a whim, Yan Shifan would be cruel and sacrificed his life to assassinate King Yu. He would say that King Jing could turn the tables!"
But Yan Donglou is not the one who sacrifices himself for others!
Wu Xinan shook his head after hearing this.
"How did King Yu go to that small Buddhist temple? I knew it when I was listening to gossip in the palace. King Yu has not spent the night at the princess for many years. At most, he would just sit in the daytime, let alone the remote Buddhist temple!"
After saying that, I suddenly remembered something.
"That is, you know Yan Shifan's whereabouts, why don't you catch them? Why do you have to come home?"
Pei He smiled and shook his head.
"My contribution is already great. The credit for capturing the rebellious leader is to be left to others!"
He followed the late emperor to Jiangnan to save his master, and then turned around to the capital and served him all the time. Once the late emperor left, the new emperor also valued him a lot. This limelight was the first place in the capital. When he went to capture Yan Shifan, he really robbed the credit, which made the heavens angry and the people resentful!
"I have already claimed the Governor's leave for a month and I want to accompany you at home!"
Now it is the national mourning period, and the city is solemn, and the people don’t even walk around with their relatives. He locks them up at home and spends good time with his family!
As a result, Pei He stayed at home for a month without leaving the house. However, when the new emperor ascended the throne, all officials paid homage to the palace, but the emperor kept it until dark before he was released. When he came back, he said to Wu Xin.
"The Grand Governor has already resigned to the new emperor. The new emperor refused and returned his resignation..."
However, Lu Bing was able to be the commander of the Jinyiwei for so many years, so he naturally knew the reason for retreating bravely. How glorious he was when he was the Grand Commander, how miserable he would be if he lost his power in the future. Taking advantage of the fact that the late emperor's remaining power is still there, he can still protect his whole body. Otherwise... it would be hard to say what would happen in the future!
Within one month later, Lu Bing made five resignations, and the new emperor reluctantly agreed, and asked Lu Bing to ask his successor after he left. Lu Bing thought about it and responded.
"Pei He, Pei Xiuyun, is calm and capable of making decisions, and should be of great use!"
"Yeah... OK!"
The Xindi nodded with satisfaction when he heard this.
"Then let's follow what Lu Qing said!"
After Pei He's January holiday, the day before he returned to the yamen to take a break, the imperial edict from the other end of the new emperor arrived. Pei He, the Jinyiwei Qianhu, was promoted as the commander. The imperial edict was not surprised. With Pei He's performance over the years and the great governor's respect for him, and then the first emperor and the new emperor valued him, it was not surprising that he was the commander, so everyone was asking for the new commander to treat him!
Pei He heard it and said with a smile,
"Of course I have to invite this wine, but I also have to ask the Grand Governor to invite us to this meal first!"
Since the founding of Daqing, few of the commanders of the Jinyiwei have had a good ending. Lu Bingshun successfully handed over his commander's job and removed from his position as the left governor of the Army Governor's Office. However, the titles of being both duke and lonely are still there. With these titles, those censors who bit him when they see him must consider it even if they want to impeach him. What's more, the power of the Jinyiwei is still undiminished. If you want to move Lu Bing, you have to see if more than 100,000 brothers in and out of the Jinyiwei agree or not!
Therefore, Lu Bing's retreat was really a very rare and good situation, and it was really gratifying!
Lu Bing laughed loudly when he heard this.
"Conductor Pei is right, I should invite you to have a meal first!"
The brothers did not go out that night, but they bought a lot of pigs and sheep in the back camp of the North Town Fushi Department. They brought in the cart of wine and called many family members to help. Everyone wanted to drink a big bowl and eat a large piece of meat!
Wu Xinan also arrived, changed into a coarse cloth dress, and put Niu Ge'er behind her back, and then let Hu Niu go out to play with a group of children. She personally carried a knife and killed pigs and sheep. She stood behind the wide chopping board, and she felt like she was returning to the Dafeng Town. She put the bright sharp knife in her hand and shouted,
"Cause you to kill the pig! Let you bleed!"
The sword light shook, and as the knife fell, the fat pig lost his life without saying a word. Someone took a bucket to collect the pig's blood. After the blood was released, he was beheaded and unloaded, and the flesh and blood separated. The pig-killing knife flew up and down in her hand, and the light and shadow flashed, and the knife technique was very powerful!
Those brothers from the Jinyiwei were stunned when they saw it.
"If the commander's wife's sword technique is not ranked first among our Jinyiwei, then it will be second!"
It’s a blessing that it’s a daughter, otherwise if we also joined the Jinyiwei, our group of people would have to stand aside!
After such a lively night, everyone was drunk. Only Pei He had Wu Xin blocked the wine, but he was still sober. When the day ended, Pei He and his wife sent Lu Bing to the carriage sent by Lu Mansion. Lu Bing then shedded her drunkenness and took Pei He's hand and sighed.
"From the future, the Jinyiwei will depend on you. I will always be the emperor and the minister... I'll take care of myself!"
Pei He nodded,
"Thank you for your advice!"
The couple watched Lu Bing's carriage slowly drive away, Pei He reached out and took Wu Xin'an's shoulder and sighed.
"The Jinyiwei looked at the scenery outside, but in fact he lived a life of licking blood from a knife and being scolded by thousands of people. It is a great blessing to be able to retire like the Grand Governor to leave safely!"
Wu Xinan smiled and hugged his thin waist.
"Then... when you are the commander for a few years, let's leave too. When the children grow up, we will take them to the sea to play, go to Japan, Ryukyu, and Tianzhu to take a look..."
"good!"
Pei He lowered his head and lifted the messy hair on her forehead, smiling very gently.
"At that time, I'm afraid you'll be used to being this commander and will not be able to bear to be a high-ranking official?"
"Then... let's take a look at that time... am I willing to give up... or can't give up!"
Many years later, Wu Xin'an realized that when he said something, a high-ranking official was a favorable person? He was indeed willing to let him go, just waiting until the children grew up...
