Dressed As the Deadly Opponent of the Male Protagonist of the Imperial Examination

This can be said to be very impolite, but Xu Rong didn't mind at all, but smiled and nodded: "It's my father."

"Heh." Pei Yunxiao smiled: "Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xu is really hidden. As far as I know, there is only one salt in the city of Zhezhou, but the price of salt is dozens of times that of the capital. Mr. Xu , I'm a business man with my duty!"

Xu Rong laughed secretly in his heart, if it was his duty, why did he come to Zhezhou, and why did he come to see him?

"Brother Zhang, in business, we are seeking wealth and wealth, and everything else is imaginary! The money you get in your hands is real."

Xu Rong didn't care at all. In just a few months, he relied on the He family to take down half of the Jiangnan Salt Market. It was just when the arrogance was dry, where would he converge?

"Who do you think those benevolence, justice, courtesy, wisdom and trust are all asking for? Are they all made up by the gentry to suppress our flat-headed people? Their own insides, I don't know what the dirty looks like."

Pei Yunxiao and Tang Heng looked at each other, and this was a bit correct. But how can there be an inexplicable sarcasm from the Xu family?

Xu Rong was even more proud when he saw that the two of them were silent. He leaned forward mysteriously and said in a low voice: "I don't know Brother Zhang is in the capital. Have you heard of Pei's house?"

Pei Yunxiao's heart jumped suddenly, raising a bad premonition.

"Tongyang Pei family is the head of the world, how dare you never heard of them. What did Mr. Xu say about them?"

Xu Rong smiled: "Yes, what about the head of the family? Still jealous at this salt city in the 13 prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River! It was there... Yes, half a month ago, the Patriarch of Pei's side branch came to Zhezhou to see me in person. , To cooperate with me to jointly expand the business of the salt city around Tongyang.

I felt that there was not enough money at the time, so I promised him to find more friends to work with. No, I met Brother Jia and I can get to know Brother Zhang. This business is just around the corner! "

"Oh? The Pei family has always ignored business affairs. Which family's head is this, so bold, dare to violate the rules of the clan?"

"Harm, it wasn't that there was some Tongyang first beauty, and my mind became alive. Brother Zhang, look at it, in the face of huge interests, even the rules of the clan can be forgotten, what else can stop it? Woolen cloth?"

Pei Yunxiao's hand holding the wine glass became stronger, and the expression on his face was already a bit wrong.

Upon seeing this, Tang Heng immediately spoke out to cover up: "It's easy to say about cooperation. Brother Zhang has nothing else, and the money is definitely enough! But the amount of money paid out is more, which corresponds to...and more. Isn't it, Brother Zhang?"

When Pei Yunxiao was reminded by him, he recovered and said coldly: "Of course."

Xu Rong quickly promised: "This is natural, Brother Zhang, don't worry."

"But..." Pei Yunxiao said again: "Doing business requires knowing yourself and the enemy. I want to know, where does the source of salt come from?"

"This..." Xu Rong was taken aback, showing embarrassment.

Pei Yunxiao continued: "Xu Gongzi, it is normal for you to keep the book secret, but I'm just in case. This private salt, Zuo is just a change of official salt. In addition to your father, your house No official contact, but Ling Zun is now seriously ill, I..."

"What are you talking about?" Xu Rong jumped up and lost his face in shock: "My father is seriously ill? Why don't I know?"

"Ah? Young Master Xu don't know?" Pei Yunxiao looked surprised: "When I came here, I went to the Xu Family Manor to sit down and listened to Aunt Ling's Aunt Xu to Brother Ling's Da Young Master Xu."

"Have you met my big brother?"

"I met Mr. Xu once in Beijing. This time I also visited by the side. It was just a personal relationship. In business, I still trust Brother Jia more," Pei Yunxiao hinted.

Xu Rong was relieved a little, but when he thought about his father's serious illness, his aunt and eldest brother did not know when they colluded together, and his heart came up again.

His father was seriously ill, which meant that the power of the Xu family had changed. He didn't even hear the news of such a big event. It is conceivable that Xu Zi and Xu Mu jointly concealed him!

Wow, Xu Zi, a two-faced bitch! Xu Rong hated it.

"Brother Zhang, the source of Xu Jia's private salt has nothing to do with my father. You can rest assured. My father is very sick, and I am so anxious for a while, so I won't be with him and leave!" Xu Rong hurriedly gave a salute and left with his subordinates.

Only when Xu Rong left the restaurant and rushed away on his horse, Pei Yunxiao finally lost his face.

"What a sideman of Pei's! If it hadn't been successful, it would have been more than a failure! If it weren't for Xu Rong to tell me, I checked for a long time and found Pei's family, wouldn't it ruin my overall plan!" Pei Yunxiao knocked the glass heavily. On the table.

"These people from the ancestral land, except for dragging their legs, have done nothing serious!"

"Everything should be better. With Xu Rong's departure, we can easily get the salt band landmarks of the remaining six places, and the Xu family tree can be eradicated." Tang Hang persuaded.

Pei Yunxiao nodded: "Yes, as long as Xu Zi and Xu Rong enter Beijing, their grandfather will immediately send someone to detain them. Now, we have to wait for a fair chance..."

Just as he said, the door was pushed open, Jin He walked in with a solemn expression.

"My son, the secret decree of the Holy Supreme has arrived outside the city of Zhezhou!"

Pei Yunxiao and Tang Heng looked at each other and overjoyed: "Quickly, get out of the city to take over!"

The emperor sent it as a confidant, and Pei Yunxiao had a relationship before leaving Beijing. Seeing him here, Pei Yunxiao knew that everything in the capital had been deployed.

The two secret letters that Pei Yunxiao wrote to Jingcheng were about secretly watching Mr. Cheng Xu from Hongyou Temple. Without disturbing his family, he released the news that Mr. Xu was seriously ill and invited Xu Zi and Xu Rong into Beijing. Then seized.

For Xu Mu, Pei Yunxiao had no plans to let him go to Beijing too. He has no private soldiers, and there are not many salt gangs in his hands, so he is not afraid. In addition to the fact that other people are in the manor, the news is relatively late, and they are just taking advantage of this time difference to be caught off guard.

And the imperial edict is the justifiable opportunity that Pei Yunxiao waited for.

The attendant handed the secret decree to Pei Yunxiao, and hurried away. He was out of Beijing this time, no matter how cautious he was, he couldn't hold back the intentional stare, so he must not stay for a long time.

Pei Yunxiao didn't send it either. She took the secret decree and opened it. It was the imperial pen of the sage, and there was a token representing the supremacy of the emperor.

"Little son, this is your majesty's purple leaf golden talisman!" Jinnian and Jinhe were stunned. This purple leaf golden talisman represents the saint himself. Since the founding of the Dali Dynasty, there are only a handful of people who can get this talisman!

Pei Yunxiao held the golden talisman and was speechless for a while.

She didn't expect that the emperor would actually give the purple leaf golden talisman to herself. She asked herself, based on the goodwill and trust she used in front of the emperor, she couldn't afford this golden talisman.

But... Pei Yunxiao inexplicably remembered the secret summons between the emperor and her in the imperial study room when he left Beijing.

He mentioned the "Three Fus of Jiangnan", mentioned the Pei family, and even outspokenly stated that this time he chose her as a link and united with the Pei family to get rid of the great evil of Jiangnan private salt.

At that time, the emperor said: "Little Qi, the whole Pei family, I think only your grandfather and you are smart people. But you and your grandfather are very different."

"I respect Pei Qing, but I can't believe it, but you..."

At that time, Pei Yunxiao thought that this was just a means by the emperor to win people's hearts. But looking at this purple leaf golden talisman, Pei Yunxiao could no longer convince herself.

No doubt about employing people, good use by suspects, and the emperor's heart skills are evident. If today is not born at this time, and is not frequently hindered by the deep-rooted powers of the Dali family, it might not be the master of ZTE!

"The imperial decree has arrived, Jinhe stayed in contact with the Qin family, Jinnian followed me and set off." Pei Yunxiao collected the purple leaf golden talisman.

"where to?"

Pei Yunxiao's original plan was to go to the nearby Xizhou Military Camp to mobilize troops and horses to encircle and suppress the Salt Gang in the 13 prefectures and counties after receiving the imperial decree.

But now, knowing that Pei's side branches are involved, Pei Yunxiao's plan is about to change.

"Go to Tongyang first!"

The Pei clan of Tongyang.

Pei Tong, the grandson of Pei Jiatang Jiu Shugong, knelt in front of the ancestral hall, with gray hair, messy clothes, and a beard curled up, staring at Pei Yunxiao who was standing next to the head of the Pei family.

"Uncle San! Are you looking at such a kid who doesn't even grow up to bully his family like this?" Pei Hao pointed at Pei Yunxiao and complained.

Patriarch Pei's face was dark, and he cursed: "You are not as good as a yellow-mouthed kid! It's so stupid! Who is Xu Rong? What is the Xu family? Is it worthy of my Pei family to cheat? "

"I..." Pei shuddered and said after holding back for a long time: "I am not trying to find a way out for Jiaojiao! I am also for the clan, and for the entire Pei family!"

"You!" Clan Chief Pei was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Pei Yunxiao sneered, then took the words: "Just because of Pei Jiao's false name as Tongyang's first beauty? Just because of her status as a concubine and concubine? Don't say you want her to be a prince and concubine, that is, Jingzhong Gong , Hou, you can't even think of it!"

"You are presumptuous! Jiaojiao is also your aunt anyway! You are disrespectful to the elders!" Pei Tong cursed.

What a mess, the relatives who turned around in the song, Pei Yunxiao complained in her heart, and said unceremoniously: "I know why you bothered to indulge Xu Rong, because his family has a noble concubine in the palace."

"But I tell you, Pei's family doesn't need princes and concubines, let alone harem concubines, so you can't help yourself! You have to cook the entire Tongyang Pei family on a hot pot, and ask my grandfather whether he can agree!"

"Little Qi, go back and tell your grandfather that the clan must be easy to discipline, and will never go wrong again!" Patriarch Pei finally spoke.

Pei Yunxiao raised her eyebrows: "Discipline? It's late!"

"Involvement in the huge salt case is the crime of copying the family and exile! Your majesty and grandfather will never tolerate it! I can come today because of the same clan and clan, fighting for the Pei family. Otherwise, it will be Beijing. Guards!"

"This... Xiao Qi, what are you going to do?" Patriarch Pei was obviously dissatisfied with Pei Yunxiao's arrogance in the clan, but because she was the most favored descendant of the protagonist, it didn't happen.

Pei Yunxiao looked at Pei Palp on the ground: "Open the ancestral hall!"

"You... Pei Yunxiao, you are brave and daring to point fingers at the clan! Your direct descendants are sitting in the capital to enjoy wealth, and you are not allowed to eat meat and soup with us. You are uneasy and kind!" stand up.

"Xiao Qi, this matter will be punished in the clan at best, there is no need to open the ancestral hall..." Patriarch Pei frowned and disagreed.

Pei Yunxiao didn't say much, and waved to Jinnian who was on the side, Jinnian stepped forward and took out a black cloth from his arms.

Pei Yunxiao took it with one hand, shaking in the air, and the cloth spread out, revealing the five-clawed flying dragon on the back.

When the Pei clan's long legs were soft, he knelt down on the ground with a "puff".

"Your Majesty's imperial pen secret decree, anyone involved in a private salt case can cut it first and then play it, and kill it without pardon!" Pei Yunxiao sternly scanned the two people on the ground shaking like chaff.

"Uncle San Tai, Xiao Qi, this is - to kill someone on an order!"
