Emperor Phoenix Policy: Feng Qingtian

Chapter 139
He put on a face of righteousness and sternness, and snapped, "Presumptuous! This official is Wu Qingshan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials! Let go of Miss Qinyue!"

The man was a little shaken when he heard the name of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, but he still couldn't bear to let go of Qinyue. Wu Qingshan's eyes darkened, and he moved Pei Xiu out, "I just came out of the Xiangfu, how dare you come here?" This place is presumptuous, I will immediately report to Xiangye..."

As soon as the drunkard heard this, he immediately let go of Qinyue, and Sa Yazi ran away.

Qinyue was in shock and thanked Wu Qingshan, Wu Qingshan waved his hand, "Forget it, it's just a small effort, Miss Qinyue, you are also scared, hurry back and rest."

The two looked at each other in the air, and then quickly staggered away.

Qinyue helped the little girl's hand to leave, Wu Qingshan lost the desire to drink tea and went back to Wu Mansion.

As soon as Qinyue returned to her yard, she immediately sewed the note into the interlayer of a sachet, opened the window, and put the sachet on the window sill. When she went to check after a while, the sachet was gone. , Qinyue smiled slightly and closed the window.

The matter of Tianxiang Tower soon spread to Xiangfu, and Pei Xiu smashed a cup in a rage, "There is really no trouble in this Li family! Pei Zhong, call Li Yi to the truth immediately!"

Soon, Li Yi rushed to the prime minister's mansion sweating profusely.

As soon as he stepped into the door, a teacup was thrown at him. Li Yi didn't dare to hide, so he was hit hard, his forehead was hit by the teacup, and blood flowed.

Pei Xiu stared at him coldly with eyes as sharp as knives, "Li Yi, if you can't manage the Li family well, the truth will help you! At that time, don't blame the truth for your whole Li family to be in trouble." A living person!"

Li Yi's face changed, and he knelt down on one knee, pleading guilty non-stop.

"First, the matter of the city gate officer caused the truth to be forced to kneel down by the empress in full view, and now at such a critical juncture, such a matter of robbing the women of the people, how dare they use the name of the truth? It’s really disgusting! You don’t think the face of the truth in front of the queen has been lost enough, and you still want the queen to seize the opportunity to step on the face of the truth?”

"The truth relies on you so much, trusts you, and let you sit firmly as the Minister of the Ministry of War. You can't even manage a Li family. How can the truth hand over the Ministry of War to you? Give you 10,000+ troops? "

Li Yi was sweating profusely, dared not say a word to defend himself, and kept pleading guilty.

After Pei Xiu sternly reprimanded him, seeing that Li Yi's face was flushed with shame, showing the intention of repentance, he let out a long sigh, and his heavy eyes fell on Li Yi, those two eyes were like a heavy boulder, which made Li Yi feel ashamed and embarrassed. Blaming myself, I can't lift my head up.

"Li Yi, do you still remember how the truth has treated you, supported you, and relied on you for more than six years?"

"Xiangye's kindness to me is something I will never forget. If there was no Xiangye, I would have been knocked down a long time ago. How could I sit safely in the position of Minister of the Ministry of War? The Li family would not have the glory it is today."

Li Yi knelt on one knee and said sincerely.

"You just remember, but Li Yi, Truth regards you as a confidant, and discusses with you all major and minor matters, but you actually let the Li family hold back Truth over and over again, can you be worthy of Truth?"

Li Yi was sweating all over his head and face. Beads of sweat ran down his cheeks, mixed with blood from the wound, and dripped on the carpet. Strictly discipline the family members, and never let them do this kind of bullying again, which will affect the reputation of the prime minister."

"Truth's reputation is not something that can be affected by a mere apprentice, but Li Yi, the mistakes made by the Li family, the most influential one is not the truth, but you, don't you understand? Your Majesty is desperate now. You are so careless and the Li family is so arrogant, do you want to follow in the footsteps of the Tang family?"

The Tang family!

Li Yi's complexion changed drastically, his face was ashen and frightening, Pei Xiu stopped talking, no more words, just a few words are enough, talking too much would be troublesome, it's better to let Li Yi think clearly by himself.

After a long time, Li Yi wiped off the sweat that flowed into a small river on his face with trembling fingers, and prostrated himself on the ground respectfully, "I will never forget the kindness of Xiangye's reminder. Xiangye saved my whole family of Li and Li Yi." I will never forget my friendship in this life, and Li Yi swears to the heavens that he will follow the lead of the prime minister, and he will never have any second thoughts!"

Seeing that the goal has been achieved, Pei Xiu's eyes flashed an unfathomable light, he helped Li Yi up himself, and said a few words from his heart, which made Li Yi grateful and loyal to him.

"Go back and clean up Li's house. This kind of thing can't be done."

Li Yi withdrew respectfully.

After he stepped back, Pei Zhong came in with his head down, seeing Pei Xiu staring at the empty doorway in a daze, he asked in puzzlement, "Master Li, Mr. Li has already left, what are you looking at?"

"The truth is thinking, why can't the people of the truth, one by one, be as worry-free as His Majesty's people?"

Pei Zhong thought about his words and said, "Master Li is capable, but the Li family is in a bit of a mess."

"There are too many people in the tribe, and most of them are mediocre people. They have nothing to do all day long. They only know how to drink and eat meat, listen to plays and find girls, fight and cause trouble, and Li Yi is too lenient with the tribe. Can we keep the chaos?"

Pei Zhong remembered Pei Xiu's control over the Pei family, hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Master Li naturally doesn't have the ability to be a housekeeper."

Whether it is the previous generation of the Pei family or Pei Xiu's generation, all of them are suppressed by the Xiangye like little chickens. Not everyone can bear the wrath.

Pei Xiu snorted coldly, "Even the family can't manage well, how can I expect him to help him manage the entire military department, and 10,000+ troops? That is the last backing of the truth, and there is no room for loss!"

Seeing that Pei Xiu was still angry, Pei Zhong didn't dare to say more, for fear of making more mistakes.

"Forget it, for the sake of his loyalty and his ability to lead troops in battle, I will keep him first, since I don't have anyone who can replace him, so I will use it first."

As Pei Xiu said, he thought of another person, "Go and call Wu Qingshan."

Wu Qingshan had just arrived at home, and was called to Xiang's mansion in a hurry. As soon as he came in, he saw a broken teacup on the ground and blood stains on the carpet, which made him almost go limp in fright.

"Master Xiang asked the subordinate to come, can you tell the subordinate to do something?"

Pei Xiu raised his eyes, glanced at him, and said calmly, "Sit down and talk."

Wu Qingshan sat down tremblingly, feeling uneasy in his heart.

"You did a good job today."

Wu Qingshan was taken aback, and asked stammeringly, "What, what's the matter?"

Pei Xiu's bottomless eyes glanced across his face, making Wu Qingshan even more uneasy, "The matter of Tianxiang Tower."

Wu Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "That's what a lowly official should do, and you shouldn't be praised by the Prime Minister."

"Well done, it's natural to praise. If you weren't here, something would have happened to the Li family, and it would have been a big trouble if it reached His Majesty's ears."

Wu Qingshan smiled apologetically, and said a few words of self-effacing.

Pei Xiu glanced at him, then changed the subject, "I heard that you like going to Tianxianglou to drink tea and listen to music? Go two or three times a month."

Wu Qingshan's heart trembled, Pei Lian knew about this?

He suppressed the fear and uneasiness in his heart, with an embarrassing expression on his face, and replied honestly, "Miss Qinyue sings very well, and I like to listen to it when I have nothing to do."

Pei Xiang smiled slightly, his deep eyes glanced at Wu Qingshan's face, and he said meaningfully, "Miss Qinyue's voice and pipa are indeed worthy of ten taels of silver from Mr. Wu."

Wu Qingshan was about to jump up, but Pei Xiang actually knew this?What else does he not know?
Then, will Prime Minister Pei know about him and Qinyue?
No, if Pei Xiang knew about it, why would he talk to him in a pleasant manner?I'm afraid that as soon as he enters the prime minister's mansion, the head on his neck will no longer be able to hang on.

Wu Qingshan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, only to realize that the jacket on his back had already been soaked in cold sweat, he suppressed the panic in his heart, and smiled awkwardly, "Xiaguan has listened to Miss Qinyue's music several times, and today I just This is the first reward, which made Xiangye laugh."

"Thousands of money can't buy a good heart. Master Wu doesn't have to feel ashamed. It's just that Master Wu, a gambler, actually likes to listen to music. It really surprised the truth."

Pei Xiu said with a pun.

Wu Qingshan was startled, but he didn't dare to show any other expressions on his face, and said with a sneer, "Xiaguan always likes to listen to ditties, but he used to have a lot of cash, and in places like Tianxiang Tower, Xiaguan didn't have so much money to go."

When Pei Xiu heard the words, he didn't say a word, and stared at Wu Qingshan intently with a pair of sharp and deep eyes, as if he was evaluating the authenticity of his words.

Wu Qingshan was so stared at by Pei Xiu that his palms were sweating and his legs were trembling, wishing he could run away.
