Chapter 68 Invitation
All these thoughts occurred in just a moment. Pei Xuanjing still listened carefully to Lin Qingyi's story.
Lin Qingyi said solemnly, "Even this time, if I hadn't taken the initiative to investigate, no one would have known about it. Brother Pei, do you know what this means?"
This means Maitreya. The sect even penetrated the Jinyiwei's tentacles, and even the people who were in contact with the Maitreya sect had a high position, otherwise this matter would not be suppressed easily.
Pei Xuanjing knew what Lin Qingyi wanted to say but didn't say it.
He shook his head and said meaningfully: "Brother Lin, it is best not to mention some things without evidence."
Pei Xuanjing stopped the other party's next words.
If the other party can reveal such confidential information to Pei Xuanjing, then it is releasing his goodwill towards him. Then, before the other party has done anything sorry for him, Pei Xuanjing should treat the other party as a friend.
This is the principle by which Pei Xuanjing conducts himself in the world.
And since he is a friend, he can't just sit back and watch.
He didn't know who the big shot was behind Lin Qingyi, but even if the other party had some big shot backing him, this was not something he, a Jin Yiwei who had just been promoted to Deputy Qianhu, said.
Being able to have contact with the Maitreya Sect, and being able to suppress the affairs of the Northwest Path, and even suppress the news about the officials and guards of the Northwest Path, this represents the energy of the other party.
There are only a handful of people in Jinyiwei who have such ability, but no one can be offended by Lin Qingyi.
It is even said that even a third-grade grandmaster like Pei Xuanjing may not be able to retreat easily.
Because such a person may not be very strong, but the power represented by the other person's identity and status is not something that a solitary person like Pei Xuanjing can deal with.
Lin Qingyi nodded. He also understood the reason, but it was just because he couldn't control it for a while.
His family is a hereditary Jinyiwei, and he has great recognition of the identity of the Jinyiwei. They are the confidants of the emperor and have supreme honor.
But it was difficult for him to accept that someone would betray the emperor in front of him.
"Tell me, do the two factories know the news?" Pei Xuanjing changed the subject.
Lin Qingyi was stunned when he heard that Jin Yiwei's two biggest opponents were his, and then he reacted.
The power of the two factories is comparable to that of Jinyiwei, or even more powerful.
But now there has never been any news, which is undoubtedly even more terrifying.
After reminding Lin Qingyi, Pei Xuanjing stopped talking and picked up the tea cup.
Lin Qingyi understood what Pei Xuanjing meant and nodded.
He took out an invitation from his arms and handed it to Pei Xuanjing with both hands, "Brother Pei, Mr. Qianshi invites you to a banquet in three days."
"Huh?" Pei Xuanjing held the tea cup and waited for the next step.
In addition to the one commander in Jinyiwei, there are two commanders below. As for the commanders mentioned by the other party, there are three. He does not know whether the person the other party mentioned is his guess. That one.
"Master Jiang invited Brother Pei for a while." Lin Qingyi said.
The Master Jiang he is talking about is Jiang Bin, one of the three commanders. Although he only holds a fourth-rank official position, he is regarded as a confidant by the emperor. He is a popular person in front of the emperor and has great power. Almost second only to Commander Qian Ning.
Pei Xuanjing did not accept the invitation and asked tentatively, "I wonder what the matter is?"
He asked himself how he could invite himself to the banquet if he had no friendship with this gentleman.
Lin Qingyi explained, "How dare I speak nonsense about Qian Shi? It's just that when I went to see Mr. Qian Shi yesterday, I accidentally mentioned Brother Pei. Mr. Qian Shi was very interested in Brother Pei and said he wanted to The banquet was held to thank Brother Pei for taking action in the first place." Naturally, Pei Xuanjing didn't believe this explanation.
Even if it was because I wanted to thank myself for taking action in the first place, it would not have taken so long.
However, he did not refuse. Pei Xuanjing took the invitation and said, "Brother Lin, please make a trip."
Seeing Pei Xuanjing accept the invitation, Lin Qingyi felt relieved.
You must know that even if Pei Xuanjing refuses, there is nothing he can do. Even Master Qianshi will not offend a third-grade grandmaster rashly.
Seeing Lin Qingyi getting up to leave, Pei Xuanjing took out a few banknotes from his arms and stuffed them in.
"Brother Lin, thank you for your hard work. Please take these things back and treat the brothers to drinks."
Lin Qingyi brought a lot of news to him today, some of which are confidential. information.
Since the other party was able to take a big risk to reveal such news to him, he naturally had to say that these banknotes amounted to several thousand taels.
Seeing Pei Xuanjing's generous move, a satisfied smile appeared on Lin Qingyi's face, thinking about how much he could keep after handing over part of it.
On a winter night, only a few stars hang in the sky.
On the quiet street, a carriage walked out of the alley of the residence of Gu Ji, the Minister of Rites, and walked slowly towards the direction of the Wuyuan.
Since Pang Hong accepted Pei Xuanjing's teachings, although he has not yet entered the first grade in more than half a year, the originally thin young man has gradually become stronger.
He waved the riding whip in his hand and drove the carriage with some unfamiliarity, for fear of disturbing Pei Xuanjing, who was meditating in the carriage.
Pei Xuanjing in the carriage closed his eyes slightly, still thinking about the exchange with Gu Ji just now in his mind.
"The current situation in the court seems to be calm, but in fact there are undercurrents. You have been careful lately and don't let others provoke you." This was Gu Ji's advice to Pei Xuanjing.
According to what Guo Ji said, some people couldn't bear it anymore. They didn't want to see the Wuyuan continue peacefully.
Those people will definitely take action, and it is very likely that they will take action against editors like Pei Xuanjing and others who have no background.
After all, compared to others, those who attacked Pei Xuanjing and the others had no pressure.
Even though Pei Xuanjing has entered the realm of a third-grade warrior.
Third-grade warriors are very powerful, this is undeniable.
But it happens that in the eyes of some people, using a third-grade warrior to kill chickens and scare monkeys is even more of a deterrent.
"Then let's see who is the 'chicken' that was killed and who is the 'monkey'." A sneer appeared on the corner of Pei Xuanjing's mouth.
Perhaps the restraint I have gained along the way has made many people feel that I am too easy to control.
Looking at the three men in black dozens of feet away, Pang Hong's face was full of nervousness, but when he thought about Pei Xuanjing behind him, his face was filled with confidence.
"Huh." Pang Hong tightened the reins, stopped the horse, and shouted to the people in the distance:
"Who are you and what do you want to do."
