Chapter 58 The Power Official's Fox Demon Pet

In the slightly gloomy palace, light incense was burning not far from the desk.

The little eunuch bowed his waist and steadily picked up the tray, and quickly transported the memorial inside to the imperial study.

Pei Duo looked at the half-cleared desk, holding the verdict in his hand, and continued to look at the memorial in his hand.

"Cousin, look, this is already the third cover this month."

Pei Sheng, who was sitting upright on the side, handed the folder in his hand to Pei Duo, and then he didn't speak again, waiting for Pei Duo to speak with bated breath.

He is a direct descendant of the Pei family, and his father is the fourth brother of Pei Duo's father, so he calls him cousin Pei Duo.

In this year's imperial examination, he was selected by the emperor as the top pick and entered the Hanlin Academy. Later, he was valued by his cousin and was promoted to participate in government affairs.

However, he is only at the stage of learning now, and he has not been able to directly intervene in the government affairs. Currently, he will read the memorial for his cousin and roughly divide the affairs, and sift through the papers that have been sieved once, and then sift the unimportant part of the memorial. Send it to the emperor's desk.

When Pei Sheng did this for the first time, his heart beat wildly and he was in the anxiety of desecrating the imperial power. His elders always told him to be careful, and his mother even advised him not to get too close with his cousin, but Pei Sheng had an idea.

He knew that the emperor didn't want him to be the top three in the palace examination that day. Even though he was knowledgeable and talented, he deliberately ignored him. It was only because his cousin was standing aside that the emperor finally praised him with a smile on his face. .

The emperor was using him to express his dissatisfaction with his cousin. Pei Sheng had no complaints in his heart, but he knew that he could not write two words of Pei in one stroke. If his cousin collapsed, it would be impossible for the Pei family not to be implicated. Now that the matter has been done, there is no turning back.

Slowly, as he read these memorials, his heart became more and more stable. He no longer beat wildly and became flustered. What he saw and learned was far better than before, so he admired his cousin even more.

If it hadn't happened back then, a man as talented as my cousin would have been named on the gold medal list and become famous for thousands of generations. Unfortunately, the white wall is now missing and it will never be the same.

The last time they met was Zechuan more than ten years ago. His cousin was eight years old and he was three years old. They were playing behind their cousin. They hadn't seen each other for many years, and this was the situation.

Pei Sheng suppressed the sigh in his heart, his expression became more solemn, waiting for Pei Duo to speak.

"Don't worry about it, let it go."

Pei Duo only glanced at it, then looked away.

Pei Sheng was a little confused, but he pressed the fold down.

This is an excerpt from Jingzhou. Jingzhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River. The governor of the state said that banditry has been rampant recently. The imperial court sent troops to suppress it. It was very urgent to think about it. There were three letters in one month. Why did my cousin turn a blind eye?

Pei Duo didn't explain to him, and his mind wandered to Jingzhou.

Jingzhou Zhoumu colluded with those water bandits for more than a day or two. He often oppressed merchants together, aggravated commercial tax exploitation, and at the same time made water bandits wait to rob the goods.
