"Eunuch Gao!"

Pei Min greeted Gao Lishi.

Gao Lishi smiled and said, "I was visiting late at night and disturbing the National Public Security Bureau to sleep. The situation is urgent. Please ask the National Public Security Bureau to enter the palace quickly with someone."

Pei Min said: "I'm not to hide it from the eunuch. Today, the incident happened suddenly and the matter was quite serious. Min didn't have the heart to sleep peacefully. He was thinking about it all in the mansion. I had no grudges and no grudges with Secretary Cui. Why did he put me to death?"

Gao Lishi said while walking, laughing: "The Duke of the State will investigate this matter. I am not convenient for me to say more. As long as the Duke of the State enters the palace, he will know everything."

Pei Min wanted to speak but stopped. This was the first time he met Gao Lishi in private since the last time he parted in Gao's house. Everything in Gao's house was too strange, especially the Forgetful Grass, which confused him until now, and was full of doubts, and was about to speak.

Gao Lishi said again: "Donald's Duke slept soundly in a certain mansion a few days ago? He originally wanted to reminisce about the past with the Duke, but he didn't want His Majesty to make a quick move, so he had to go to the palace first. I am really ashamed of not being able to fulfill his friendship with the landlord."

Seeing Gao Lishi talking about the matter in the mansion without doing anything, Pei Min was surprised and replied: "You are kind to the eunuch. The camellia garden in your mansion is the most beautiful garden in your life. It is a great blessing to be able to play chess and have tea with the garden."

Gao Lishi said: "Although the camellia in the palace is beautiful, it lacks a little poetic. The national official’s literary talent is unparalleled in the world. If he has time to have time, he will write a poem extraordinary, and a monument will be engraved in the garden, which will be the finishing touch."

Pei Min was ashamed. After years of study, he had some standards in writing articles. However, he really didn't have any talent in poetry. So far, there is no decent poem that belongs to him.

It was really embarrassing him to write poems.

But in the eyes of the world, Pei Min is no longer just a literary master, but a generation of literary masters. He recites poetry and essays as simple as eating and drinking water.

Fortunately, Pei Min studied literature in the 21st century and had a little ink in her belly, otherwise her character would have collapsed long ago.

Pei Min couldn't refuse Gao Lishi's request, so he could only respond with a gritty and think about looking back to find poems that suit him.

After he was about to speak again, Gao Lishi said again: "Donald has been through a barbecue for a long time, and is he satisfied with the hundred-year-old winter brew in his mansion? Isn't he afraid to tell the duke that the hundred-year-old winter brew is particularly strange. With a certain amount of alcohol, it shouldn't be poured in three cups of strong wine. But the hundred-year-old winter brew really can't drink three cups. The duke has drunk more than twenty cups in one breath. It's really amazing."

When Pei Min saw Gao Lishi talking about the matter, he couldn't help but say in his heart: "Is that the wine really okay? Or is there a problem? He doesn't know? Or did he say it on purpose?"

He tentatively said: "I have drunk a lot of Zhongshan winter brews, and I have never been drunk after more than twenty cups. This century-old winter brew is extraordinary."

Gao Lishi said: "There is only one jar in my mansion, and now only 60% of it remains. The Duke likes it. I will keep half of it tomorrow, and the remaining half will be sent to the Duke's mansion. I believe that except the Duke, there are not many people who can stand the strongness of this wine."

Pei Min was surprised that Gao Lishi was so refreshed and didn't know what to say.

After a pause, Pei Min also gave up looking at the bottom of the matter.

He didn't want to tear his face with Gao Lishi.

It is really not a wise move to be an enemy of Gao Lishi in the current situation.

Pei Min's current roots are in the northwest, and he will eventually go to the northwest one day. Everything about Chang'an is beyond reach. Gao Lishi is Li Longji's closest minister. Even if he doesn't flatter him, it's best not to offend him.

Anyway, I don't seem to have lost anything...

Walking all the way to the palace, at the entrance of the palace, I happened to meet King Ning Li Xian who was heading to the palace.

Li Xian's appearance was a bit beyond Pei Min's expectations.

However, it also indirectly reflects Li Longji's attention to this matter.

Pei Min greeted Li Xian.

The two of them also walked into the palace to greet each other.

Li Longji was anxious when he was waiting in the Wude Hall. Seeing Pei Min and Li Xian arrived together, he directly waived their greetings and told them in detail about Qinglong's situation.

Pei Min had known it for a long time and deliberately made a surprised expression, but because he didn't know Qinglong's strength, he didn't seem much surprised.

Li Xian looked solemn when he heard this. He was a person who had experienced it and knew the terror of Qinglong at the time.

Li Longji said: "What I have entrusted is not human, and it is too late to regret it when I use people. It has been said since ancient times that it is not too late to make up for the loss of sheep. Qinglong must not be a tool for others to seek power and favoritism. I invite you overnight tonight, just like letting you investigate how much power Cui Cheng hides and who is used for."

At the end of his speech, Li Longji's tone was filled with evil spirits.

At this point, Li Longji naturally would not ignore the Cui family behind Cui Cheng.

The previous generations started with Yang Jian, and the emperors such as Yang Jian, Yang Guang, Li Shimin, Li Zhi, and Wu Zetian all regarded the aristocratic family as a disaster.

But Li Longji did not take the aristocratic family seriously. After Wu Zetian's massacre, the aristocratic family has long been different from the past.

Too much suppression will be detrimental to development.

After all, the aristocratic family is also a place for exporting talents. If the aristocratic family really loses the talent supply to the court, it will be a great loss for the court.

As long as you weigh the promotion and development of aristocratic families, the existence of aristocratic families will not be completely harmless.

However, if aristocratic families are uneasy and intend to restore the past, influence the promotion of new officials in the court, block the promotion of poor scholars, force poor scholars to serve the aristocratic families, form a dominant family, or even control the government and the government's principles, then it will violate his bottom line.

Li Xian also thought of Cui Cheng's background and said solemnly: "We must check it to the end, but we don't know where to check it."

"Check it out from me!" Pei Min pointed at himself with one hand and said, "I am very curious. Cui Cheng and I have no grudges in the past and have no grudges recently. Why did he target me like this and even slander me for rebellion and put me in a place of no return? There must be a reason for this. As long as you find this root, you may be able to peel off the thread and pull the cocoon and find the reason."

Li Xian praised: "As the saying goes, the prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach, but I don't know whether Song prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach, but the Duke must be able to."

Li Longji regretted even more after hearing this, and asked Gao Lishi to tell the two of them the news he found from the surface of Qinglong.

Gao Lishi said: "For some reason, Qinglong's superficial strength has been targeting a gang in Chang'an called Qingyu Alliance, which has even affected Qingyu Tower."

Li Xian looked surprised. He loved music and naturally knew that Qingyulou, which was comparable to Taichang Temple and Liyuan, also knew that Qingyulou had a close relationship with Pei Min. He looked at Pei Min with some clarity and said, "It seems that the reason is here. The relationship between the Duke and Gongsun is not ordinary? You are running for her like this. In my opinion, the drunkard's intention is not to drink."

Pei Min didn't hide it and said with a smile: "King Ning knew me, Mrs. Gongsun is gentle and gentle, and her talent and appearance are the best in the world. She has won my heart and admired her for a long time. Before the Spring Festival, hard work paid off, and I decided to live my life. To be precise, Mrs. Gongsun, the owner of the Qingyu Tower, is now a wife who has not passed the door. As for the leader of the Qingyu League, Gongsun Erniang, she is both my apprentice and her future wife and sister. She can be said to be a family..."

As soon as he said this, Li Longji, Gao Lishi, and Li Xian were surprised and couldn't help laughing.

Li Longji said: "It is not a romantic young man, but Aunt Gongsun is both talented and beautiful, and is indeed worthy of Jingyuan. With Jingyuan's status and status, it is rare. I thought Jingyuan was not good at women, but now it seems that this is not the case. But the person who sees him very high and ordinary women cannot see you."

Pei Min smiled embarrassedly and said, "I am also a vulgar person, and I am unavoidable, and I am unavoidable." As he said that, he also put away his smile and said with a little solemnity: "The reason is afraid that this is the reason... Your Majesty, I have a deep relationship with my sister Gongsun, but I remember the Yuan family's daughter? It was because their sisters had a conflict with Jiang Bo, the Northwest merchant, that he learned the details."

"At that time, Gongsun Erniang showed her character of being eager to be righteous, and it has not changed over the years. I have also said that the world is dangerous and should not be too deep into it. But she was very persistent in this regard, but she felt that it was me who was worried about being implicated by her, and that if something really happened, I would never be implicated."

Speaking of this, Pei Min laughed and said, "I'm not afraid to tell the truth to Your Majesty. This family will not say two families. If there is a problem with Er Niang, I will never sit idly by. As long as it is not that kind of unforgivable fault, even if I give up this face, I will come forward to protect it."

Li Longji nodded and said, "This is human nature."

Pei Min said, "Apart from not listening to me in this regard, it's all good. Whenever I come to Beijing, she will come intimately to see you, treating the Pei Mansion as her own home. This time, I have only met the aunt twice, but I have not shown up. I asked about this, and the aunt said that the aunt was busy with everything and could not be exhausted. Now it seems that it is not that I can't be exhausted, but that something really happened and I don't want to be implicated."

Li Xian said: "The little girl is very good-minded, but she is just a lot of things, not something she doesn't want to be tired if she wants to."

Pei Min stood up and bowed to Li Longji sincerely: "The reason for this matter is almost 10 or more involved in the Qingyu Alliance. If Your Majesty has trusted me, I am willing to go and talk to Erniang in detail, understand all the story of this matter, and find out all the cause and effect."

Li Longji waved his hand and said, "If you want Jingyuan tonight, you will naturally not have any doubts about you anymore. However... I believe that this matter is not just the grudges of the world. It may involve aristocratic families, and even many ministers of the Chinese ministers. It should have been handed over to the Censorate, but I will follow the expedient measures. I will be headed by my brother, King Changning, Jingyuan, you and Lishi are the deputy, and you three will investigate the matter with privileges. If you can keep it silent, you will keep it silent. Avoid panic in the civil and military people in the court because of the Qinglong incident. It is best not to affect the Fengshan ceremony..."

Li Xian, Pei Min, and Gao Lishi received the order together.

The three of them bid farewell to Li Longji.

On the way back to the mansion, Li Xian said to Pei Min: "Before this matter is over, the Ning Palace is our place of discussion. The Duke of the State will go to learn more tomorrow. I will wait for the news in the mansion."

"clear!"

Although there is one more Ning Wang, everything is not out of the overall layout.

The next day, Pei Min came to Gongsun You, Gongsun Xi, and Zhan Peng, and re-checked the confession with them. He asked someone to carry Zhan Peng and hurried to Ning Wang Mansion.

Li Xian had been waiting in the mansion for a long time.

When Li Xian learned that Pei Min brought a stranger to him, he laughed and said, "It seems that the Duke of the State has gained a lot."

Pei Min couldn't laugh and said with a wry smile: "I would rather have a smaller harvest."

Li Xian also put away his smile and said, "It seems that things are the same as we imagined. Cui Cheng is not in power, but is distributed to the so-called people." As he said, he said with a little ridiculousness: "Sure enough, as rumors are like the rumor, the children of aristocratic families have aristocratic families first and then the country. Sanlang is very favored by Cui Cheng, but he is not as good as the cultivation of their family. It is really hateful."

Pei Min asked Zhan Peng to lift him up.

Looking at Zhan Peng, who was covered in wounds and a little weak, Li Xian's eyes were filled with surprise, and then there was a hint of anger in his eyes.

He had discovered that Zhan Peng was not ordinary injured, but was tortured.

Setting up a private punishment hall was also a serious crime in ancient times.

Zhan Peng said weakly: "The Caomin has seen King Ning, so he cannot salute King Ning. I hope King Ning will not blame him."

His injuries were actually healed under Liu Shenwei's treatment, but for the sake of layout, Li Lao was specially asked to use a weak Gu on him, and he lost his energy, spoke weakly, and had no vitality at all.

Li Xianxian asked someone to lift a Hu bed so that Zhan Peng could lie down comfortably, and looked at Pei Min and said, "What's the situation?"

Pei Min said to himself: "It's up to me to say that if there are any omissions or areas that need to be supplemented, Uncle Zhan is making up for it."

Zhan Peng nodded in cooperation.

Pei Min said: "All the whole story is because of Uncle Zhan. Uncle Zhan was the commander of the inner guard in the past, named Zhan Peng. Looking through the past archives, you should be able to confirm whether it is true. When the Five Kings returned to the Tang Dynasty, Uncle Zhan avoided the purge and lurked in Chang'an, hiding in hiding, and living a worried life. Until the Taiping Party was destroyed, Uncle Zhan thought that Qinglong also disappeared with the demise of Princess Taiping. He began to feel relaxed and lived a normal life comfortably until Cui Hong's Qinglong discovered it."

Li Xian keenly realized that it was Cui Hong's Qinglong, not Cui Cheng.

Pei Min continued: "Uncle Zhan was responsible for the training of members in the inner guard. As long as he helped him, Qinglong's strength would continue. They came to Uncle Zhan, but were rejected by Uncle Zhan. They were also threatened to attack him. Uncle Zhan had a favor with the Qingyu Tower in Luoyang, and the Gongsun sisters rescued him. Uncle Zhan was unwilling to drag down the Qingyu Alliance and did not tell the truth."

"But just like me, the power of Qinglong cannot be known to outsiders. They dare not let the Qingyu League go, and do not believe that the Qingyu League has no idea, so they began to plot against the Qingyu League."

"The relationship between the Gongsun sisters and Min is well known, so they dare not use official means and can only continue secretly. I can't imagine what tricks they use, but they can't calculate a little bit."

"Fengchan, Fengchan will be transferred from Liangzhou to Chang'an and become the invisible arm of the Gongsun sisters. They are worried that my joining will expose everything they have and move the target of the blocking on me. As long as I fall, Qingyu League, Qingyu Tower will naturally not be afraid."
