Pei's family is in the west of Wenzhou City, built along Yunxi, and the pavilions stretch for dozens of miles. Because of the more than 100 years of breeding and living in this place, and because of the large number of younger brothers, the Pei family is bounded by Yunxi and divided into North Pei and South Pei.

Daxuan takes the north as the respect, and when it is divided into the north and the south, the Pei family branch is in the north, and the side branch moves to the south. Although they live in the north and south, the Pei family has produced a lot of commendable characters in the branches and side branches, and the Pei family is called the prime minister's family by the world, not only referring to the north Pei or the south Pei, but to these two.

Now the merit arches standing at the mouth of Yunxi are enough to illustrate this point, such as "nine songs of the intestines, Yunmeng Jing before thinking about the earth; three thousand avenues, Danyang Ji on the immortal official" a couplet.

The upper link refers to Pei Guan, a famous minister who made great contributions to the governance of Jingjiang Yunmengze in the Taizong Dynasty, from Nanpei; the lower link refers to the Ji'an monk who was born in Danyang Ji and was born in Danyang, and his common name is Pei Guan, which is from Beipei, and this joint refers to the Pei family's talents regardless of north and south.

With the three generations of the Pei family's descendants, the Nanpei side branch also followed, and the imperial archway on the edge of Yunxi did not increase, but the Pei family has such a heritage, so many children, when mentioning Hedong Pei, how many people dare to treat it lightly?

The ancestral home of the Pei family is in the north Pei where the branch is located. At this moment, in a study room in the Pei family's ancestral house, two people were talking.

"That girl, is she really Wei Junxiang's personal disciple? Wei Junxiang's disciple made a deal with the Pei family, which is really interesting. An old man said with a smile on his long beard.

He had gray hair, many wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and looked like he was over the age of six. It's just that, as an old man, he looks ...... It's so charming!

Beautiful beard and phoenix eyes, long eyebrows and sideburns, because he is old enough and has enough experience, his eyes are extremely warm, and the occasional flash of light can only be described by two words: wisdom, which makes people involuntarily convinced.

This old man is Pei Guang, the patriarch of the Pei family and Pei Ding's father.

What they are talking about is obviously the deal that Zheng Heng and Pei Ding said earlier. Even if Zheng Heng is still a young girl, but for the name of "Wei Junxiang's disciple", Pei Ding and Pei Guang will not treat this transaction as a joke.

Pei Ding replied: "Wei Junxiang has not been out for ten years, whether he is his disciple or not, it is not certain now." But knowing Hongzhuti and knowing Ji Yong's whereabouts is indeed too strange, ordinary girls don't do this. Well, not even for Xiaozhu'er. ”

Pei Guang agreed with what Pei Ding said, after all, Ji Yong is now staying in the Pei family safely, and Meng Ruitu's granddaughter who fled from Jizhou is also with him. It's really unusual for a girl to be able to relate to these two people.

However, unexpectedly, both Ji Yong and the girl of the Meng family said that they had not been in contact with that girl before, which was what made Pei Guang really curious.

If that girl had never been in contact with Ji Yong and the others, how did she know Ji Yong's whereabouts? Could it be that the person who protected Ji Yong before had a connection with her?

Pei Guang didn't say such a guess, but said: "Earlier, you said that she would be able to Hongzhu body, and she was very similar to the style of the Empress Dowager Li Ping, I thought it was strange." By the way, what is her name? Zheng ...... Zheng what ......"

"Zheng Heng is the eldest daughter of Zheng Min of Yongning Houfu, and her mother is from the Ning family in Beizhou. Pei Ding replied and once again said Zheng Heng's name in front of his father.

Hearing him say this, Pei Guang was a little excited, and only then did he lazily reply: "Zheng Min...... Don't want to say. The Ning family in Beizhou is good, but unfortunately everyone is almost dead. In your opinion, is this statement of Wei Junxiang's disciple credible?"

At this time, Pei Ding remembered the girl who was crying outside the Minglun Hall library. Until now, Pei Ding still felt a little confused, why did she cry, and then her eyes were red and she said that she wanted to make a deal with the Pei family.

He had contact with Zheng Heng several times, and each time he felt that this girl was like a mystery, and there were too many incomprehensible things on her. As for whether she is a disciple of Wei Junxiang...... This Pei Ding is really hard to say.

After pondering for a moment, Pei Ding replied: "Although there are only two things, Hongzhuti and Ji Yong, the child intuitively thinks that she is not lying. Perhaps, she and Wei Junxiang are really connected. ”

Pei Guang glanced at Pei Ding in surprise. He, the fifth son, had always been steady and cautious, and words like "intuition" were not like the words he could utter.

It's ethereal, but sometimes it's the most believable.

After a while, Pei Guang said: "I agreed to the deal she mentioned." Although the Pei family has no shortage of talented people, Wei Junxiang's disciples are different. Speaking of which, if she is really Wei Junxiang's disciple, the Pei family will take advantage. ”

Pei Ding had already expected that his father would agree, and he didn't say anything more at the moment. Indeed, it was the Pei family who took advantage. She used Wei Junxiang's talent to help the Pei family, but what she exchanged was five years of stability, and the Pei family guaranteed her stability for five years.

couldn't help but feel a trace of indescribable depression in Pei Ding's heart. She is a girl from the Yongning Marquis Mansion, but she has to use the Pei family to keep her safe. If it weren't for the fact that she had a hard time in Yongninghou before, it would have been very difficult in the future.

A girl of her age should enjoy the favor of her family like Xiaozhu'er, but she has to plan as hard as she does now. Pei Ding guessed that she didn't want to expose her relationship with Wei Junxiang, but she still said it outside the library.

Pei Ding didn't know what kind of mood she was in when she proposed the transaction, but it was expected that she must be unhappy in her heart......

Pei Guang looked at Pei Ding carefully, saw that his face was different from usual, thought about it, and asked curiously, "Is she beautiful?"

"......" Pei Ding was stunned, he didn't expect his father to ask such a thing. How to answer this?

"Isn't it pretty?" Pei Guang frowned, and said to himself: "But if you are not beautiful, how can you show such a Sichun expression?"

"......" Pei Ding pursed his lips tightly, determined never to answer this kind of question.

Really, what is Sichun's expression?

Pei Guang's eyes flashed a little jingling, and he wanted to say something, but he heard the sound of "fluttering", followed by the sound of "squeaking", and a gray-billed brown-feathered bird landed on the windowsill, and there was still a lot of dust on the feathers, and it seemed that it had been flying for a long time.

On its feet, there is also a bamboo tube tied to it.

This time, neither father nor son spoke again. Pei Ding quickly took off the small bamboo tube on the bird's feet and handed it to Pei Guang.

These birds were raised by Pei Guang and specially used to deliver messages. What news did this little bird bring?
