v2 Chapter 40： situation, secret

Shen Shikang's face was heavy, and he was quite sad.

"Of course, these people are not the only ones in the court, but other people who are still sober, for self-protection, either resign like me, or pretend to be deaf and dumb, wise and prudent to protect themselves, and they are in vain. Wandering, the atmosphere of the entire court has been lost. The generals are either demoted or something has happened. My Yue family's Pei family is demoted to Jin'an County, which is far from Jiankang. , I am willing to live and die with the Pei family."

Yang Yi saw that Shen Shikang was so sad, so he took the conversation and said: "The Pei family has developed in Jin'an County for these years, and there are many contacts. As far as I know, the Pei family did not accept their fate. Now the head of the Pei family is the cousin of my young master, and he is also a prodigy. rise again."

Yang Yi is obviously very confident in the Pei family, and it seems that the Shen family also places hope on the Pei family.

Gu Shuixiu asked tentatively, "Mr. Shen, forgive me for asking, does the Pei family have aspirations?"

As soon as these words came out, Shen Shikang's eyes immediately sharpened, seeing Gu Shuixiu's calm face, he said quietly: "How can a strong man not have ambition? It's just that the Pei family has nothing but a head. A talent for governing the world, but others have mediocre aptitudes, they can use force, but they cannot.

The kid from the Pei family also worked hard to have children, but unfortunately, the Pei family seems to have only one smart person. It's the current head of the Pei family, and the one from Jiang An's generation..."

Shen Shikang seemed to be thinking of something, with a helpless look on his face, and he continued after a while: "The one who is better than Jiang An's generation is now Pei Zhongqing, the daughter of the Pei family, that child is more than Jiang An's. She is four or five years older, and now she is thirteen years old. She is quirky, and she has endless ghost ideas. Even her father has followed her way. Unfortunately, she is a girl and can't inherit the Pei family. The Pei family does not dare to gamble. If you can bear it down, if Pei Zhongqing is a son, the Pei family must have taken action long ago."

Gu Shuixiu nodded, she understood it all, the Pei family is not without ambition, but only weak, and the talents in the family are not strong. Overlord, can advance or retreat.

"But, aren't the Pei family worried that the imperial court has ideas about them? As far as I know, the virtues of the Prince and the King of Peace, if you know that the Pei family is developing forces in Jin'an County, I'm afraid it won't be easy Let go of the Pei family." Gu Shuixiu was a little puzzled, when she was talking to Shen Shikang, except for Yang Yi who could add a sentence or two, everyone else had a superficial expression on the subject, completely confused.

Shen Shikang heard Gu Shuixiu's question, embarrassment flashed on his face, Yang Yi coughed dryly, and said weakly: "Prince and the others will of course pay attention, so in order not to attract others' attention, Pei family Before arriving in Jin'an County, he clearly let all the soldiers disbanded. In fact, all these people were entrenched in the mountains and became bandits. The Pei family lived in the village and worked like ordinary people at sunrise and sunset. Controlled the entire village and was in close contact with those soldiers who went up the mountain.

Jiankang is far away from Jin'an County. They will not know about the actions of the Pei family. In addition to the rampant bandits now, it is not surprising that there is one more and one less. Kang didn't go to Jin'an County because he didn't want to cause trouble to the Pei family. In addition to the matter of Zhang family and Linhai County, he chose Qingping Mountain to live in seclusion. "

"So the Pei family is similar to Big Brother Song now..." Dong Chenghu heard it before, but now he understands it. It turns out that the Pei family has also become a bandit, no wonder what Shen Shikang did to them Because he accepted it so quickly, he didn't look like a scholar's pedantic behavior at all. He originally thought it was Shen Shikang's enlightened mind, but now it seems that this is not the case at all.

However, with the big bandits of the Pei family, Shen Shikang will probably conceal this matter for them. Dong Chenghu is relieved a lot at this moment.

Yang Yi was speechless for a while, but nodded sullenly, thinking that the Pei family was full of soldiers and horses, and now they are going to be viewed as bandits, not to mention how embarrassing.

Gu Shuixiu was not as depressed as Yang Yi. She already had some thoughts in her heart at this time. Song Youxin was going to start an uprising, and with the money from Dongyang County, she would definitely be able to recruit troops. If you can drink and cooperate with the Pei family, what are the odds of winning?

Gu Shuixiu shook her head, these are not what she should think, anyway, it is already in chaos, when the heroes rise, who will remember this "little thing" their family did, they can Just close the door with peace of mind and live your own childhood.

Shen Shikang saw that Gu Shuixiu didn't ask any more questions, and his face was calm, he smiled and said, "Xiu girl, do you want to understand? Don't worry?"

Gu Shuixiu chuckled lightly: "I barely figured it out. I'm afraid I will trouble Mr. Shen to pay more attention to the outside situation. If there is any trouble, we should be prepared."

Gu Shuixiu and Shen Shikang are connected, but Uncle Qin and the others are at a loss. Shui Xiu is not in a hurry, they don't need to be in a hurry. Based on the simplest logic, a few people wisely chose to remain silent.

When Shen Shikang and Yang Yi returned to the house, Qin Shan also took his son away and rushed home with Uncle Qin Qin Chuan, but Zuo Qingsong was not in a hurry, but went back to clean the house first Stepping on the moonlight and soaking in the biting cold wind, I rushed to Cuizhu Mountain, stayed here for one night, and picked up Dong Yunmei and the children early the next morning.

Gu Shuixiu accompanies Dong Chenghu back to the house, Dong Chenghu carefully looked at the door and found no one, so he closed the door tightly, pulled Gu Shuixiu to sit beside the bed, and whispered, "There were so many people just now. , there is one thing I didn't tell you, this time we robbed the prefect's yamen, and we got a lot of money, so we took a little, and the four families were divided equally."

Gu Shuixiu saw Dong Chenghu's excited and cautious look, and burst out laughing, "What do I think it is? Since you all went to rob the government office, if you don't get something back, I will pay you back. It's weird! Tell me, what are the good things?"

Dong Chenghu smiled and whispered a few words in Gu Shuixiu's ear, only to see Gu Shuixiu's eyes getting bigger and brighter, faintly excited.
