    The emperor¡¯s destiny is like a mountain.

    The next day, the Ministry of Personnel issued an official document. The emperor seized the favor and re-appointed Pei You'an, appointed the Southwest Economic Envoy, and supervised the naturalization of the refugees in Jingxiang. He went to his post a few days later.

    As the news spread, colleagues who had contact with Pei You'an on weekdays came to see him off one after another. After two busy days of greeting and sending him off, he was about to leave the next day. In the evening, Pei You'an rode out of the city alone and came to the foot of Ci'en Temple.  , accompanied by the twilight mist in front of the mountain, I climbed the mountain steps alone and knocked on the temple door.

    It was the time for evening classes in the temple, and the evening bells were ringing and blowing in the wind.

    Pei Youan came to the root hall attached to the east of the temple and entered the courtyard where the lotus thrones of the ancestors of the Pei family were kept. The two old servants guarding the courtyard saw his sudden appearance and hurriedly welcomed him out.  After a few words, Pei Youan asked about Yuzhu's current situation.

    The old lady died less than a year ago, and the lotus throne has not yet been returned to its place. Instead, a separate spiritual pagoda was built here to ward off disasters and evil, and then enter the root hall after one year.

    When the old lady left, in addition to arranging for the separation of the two houses, she also made arrangements for Yuzhu, who had served her for nearly ten years, returned her body deed, and left her enough money for the rest of her life, as well as a yard.  In the future, if she finds a suitable man and is willing to marry, she will leave the Pei family.  At that time, after the hot mourning, countless people came to her to propose marriage to her, overtly and secretly, but Yuzhu didn't respond at all. She followed the old lady's lotus position here. Now, in the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed.

    The old woman listened to Pei Youan's question and said hurriedly: "For more than half a year, Yuzhu has been reciting the Karma Elimination Sutra for the old lady every day. My eldest grandma told me to take more care of Miss Yuzhu before, and the old lady has remembered it."

    Pei Youan nodded, came to the room where the old lady's lotus position was alone, and opened the door.

    Yuzhu was kneeling on a green leaf futon next to the memorial tablet, reciting scriptures silently. When she heard the sound of the door opening behind her, she turned her head, stood up hurriedly, greeted Pei You'an, and said in surprise: "Uncle, why are you here? Are you not accompanying grandma?  Have you returned to Quanzhou?"

    We haven¡¯t seen her for half a year. As the old woman said just now, she has lost a lot of weight.

    Pei You'an kowtowed to the old lady's shrine. After finishing, he stood up and said: "I just returned to Beijing a few days ago. Long live your love and use me, leaving my grandma in Quanzhou."

    He looked at the dimly lit room, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Yuzhu, what are your plans for the future?"

    Yuzhu slowly lowered his head and was silent for a moment.

    "When I have been here for the old lady for a full year and repaid the old lady for her kindness to me, I will find a nunnery to stay."

    Pei You'an said: "Yuzhu, I want to ask you to help me with something."

    Yuzhu was startled.

    "Sir, please tell me. I used to be the old lady's girl, and now even though the old lady is gone, I am still a servant of the Pei family. As long as Yuzhu can do it, I will go through thick and thin without hesitation!"

    Pei You'an said: "You are no longer a servant of the Pei family. I want to ask you to go to Quanzhou and take care of grandma for me."

    Yuzhu was stunned again, hesitated, and said: "Uncle, what do you mean? I don't understand"

    Pei You'an smiled and said: "Long live this trip, I won't be able to come back for less than a year and a half. The mountains and rivers in those places are dangerous, and the eldest grandma is fragile, so it is not suitable for her to go there. Now her grandmother is getting weaker, and at home,  Although there are servants you can trust and use, my mother is weak and my brother is still childish. She has told you before and you are careful and capable. Are you willing to go over and be her company?"

    Yuzhu stared at the man opposite who stood with his back to the dusk, his figure shrouded in the thick dusk. He slowly knelt down towards him, kowtowed and said: "It is Yuzhu's blessing to be able to accompany and serve the eldest grandma. Yuzhu is willing."

    Pei Youan nodded: "Someone will pick you up in two days. Just pack up and leave."

    Yuzhu responded and sent him out of the threshold, watching his back gradually disappear into the dusk.

    Pei Youan stayed in the temple for the night.  Early the next morning, before the eastern sky turned white, people left the temple and went down the mountain back to the city.

    At five o'clock in the morning, the morning light was slightly white, and white mist was floating in the fields. With a heavy and simple creaking sound, the gate of the imperial city, which had been closed all night, slowly opened, and a row of heavy soldiers and horses came out, with armored guards at the front and rear, and guards in the middle.  It was a small car covered with green felt, swaying through the morning fog and heading out of the city.

    This was the team that was ordered to escort the deposed prince back to the ancestral land of Long Qian to guard the tomb of his father. The leader of the team, the Han general of Jinyiwei, was riding on a horse. When he saw a figure leading a horse walking by the opposite road, he didn't pay attention at first.  , when he got closer, he recognized that the man was Pei You'an, and hurriedly ordered the team to pause, called "Master Pei", dismounted and saluted him.

    Pei Youan smiled and nodded at the Han general, took the horse, and continued walking towards the city gate along the side road. When he passed by the felt cart, the body of the cart wasSuddenly there was violent shaking, and the sound of shackles hitting the iron bars was heard inside, as if someone was struggling inside. Then, a voice penetrated the green felt and came out: "Pei You'an, don't think you are like this.  Just beat me! The fate is a sign, the outcome is uncertain, this is definitely not my end! Even if the fate misleads me, I will not be able to come back in this life, and your end will never be a good one! In his eyes, there is only the world and this  Emperor, do you think he will give you a good death?"

    Every word and every sentence is heard, as if a deep-seated hatred has condensed into my ears.  The guards nearby all changed their colors and looked at each other, but Pei You'an seemed not to have heard anything. He looked forward with his eyes and did not stop for a moment. He continued to hold the horse in his hand and walked forward, passing by the green chariot.

    Seeing that Pei Youan had walked over, the Han general immediately ordered the whole team to move forward without stopping for a moment.

    The horses¡¯ hooves stepped on the ground and the wheels sparkled. After a brief stop, the group of people and horses continued to move forward.

    Sneers began to slowly come from the car. At first it was just a low hoho, and then it turned into wild laughter. The laughter got louder and louder, until the procession gradually disappeared into the morning mist, and then it finally dissipated completely.  .

    ¡­¡­

    That night, Xiao Lie asked Pei You'an.

    Li Yuangui said: "Long live your Majesty, Mr. Pei has left Beijing today. I personally escorted you out of the city. Cui Yinshui also followed. I will serve you attentively. Please rest assured."

    Li Yuangui glanced at him and whispered: "Long live Zai Zhen. In the past two days, Master Pei has been busy with social activities. Last night, he went to Ci'en Temple alone. He first went to the Gentang Hall, thinking he wanted to pay homage to his ancestors. After he came out, he went  I spent the night in the Lunzhuan Sutra Pavilion, left the temple at dawn, and then returned to the city."

    Xiao Lie was lost in thought for a moment and asked: "Li Yuangui, let me ask you, if I and my nephew are incompatible, will You'an side with me or his student?"

    Li Yuangui bowed and said: "How can Long Live have such doubts? Lord Pei's loyalty to Long Live is expressed through the mouth of a slave?"

    Xiao Lie was silent for a moment, and then asked: "I'll ask you again, if I do this this time, if he finds out in the future, will he break up with me?"

    Li Yuangui hesitated for a moment and said: "Long live the dragon virtues. Long live the virtues of the dragon. He soars to the throne of heaven. He is diligent in government and loves the people. Everyone in the world praises him. The king and his ministers are in harmony with each other like a fish in water. Mr. Pei is the most discerning person.  , how could you be separated from Long Live?"

    Xiao Lie slowly exhaled and said, "I hope it's as you said. It's just that we can't let him know about this for the time being. We must keep the news secret."

    Li Yuangui seemed to be relieved, seeing a rare look of relaxation on the emperor's face for many days, and he himself breathed a sigh of relief.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
