Chapter 33: Doubts
The heavens are above, and good deeds will be rewarded in the end. Pei Guo and Jiuzhen, who had rested enough, left Xiaotan, wandered through the oasis, climbed the sand dunes, and the scene that caught his eye made him jump out of his voice--- Under the mound, dozens of people and horses were stationed on the spot based on the broken car and wreckage, could it be Chen and the rest of the Liang people?
So the two hurriedly went down the hill, and Chen Cheng and his party had already ushered in it, and the two sides were overjoyed when they saw it. Jiu Zhen took Chen Zhen's hand and asked eagerly, "Uncle! Why are you still here? Chen Zhi looked at Jiuzhen covered in injuries, sighed, and was full of affection: "If you can't wait for Zhen'er to come back, what kind of face will Uncle Wei have to go back to Jiangdong and see my Chen family's father?" If others don't say it, King Jin'an must be the first to let me go! ”
When Jiu Zhen heard this, his face turned red, and he said angrily: "Shizhang he dares!" Pei Guo saw it in his eyes, and he had an inexplicable sigh in his heart: Who is this world? The last time I was in Qianjinfang, what Jiuzhen chanted seemed to be the poem of this world... Full of questions, but it's hard to speak.
Chen Zhen laughed, and suddenly he frowned and asked, "How many of them are Chen Gui?" ”
"Uncle Gui, he... Jiuzhen's expression suddenly darkened, and he gently let go of Chen Zheng's hands, and his voice was choked, and he recounted what he had experienced in the past few days. After listening to this, Chen Zhi was also in a depressed mood and was speechless for a long time.
At this time, someone handed over Hu Biscuit and water, Pei Guo and Jiuzhen were already hungry, so they were busy taking it and taking a big bite. Chen Zhi saw that the two of them were eating sweetly, and the corners of his mouth finally raised a little arc, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Pei Langjun this time, he first captured Hu Luguang to warn, so that we and others were saved from the catastrophe, and then saved Jiuzhen several times... This kindness, Chen Qingzhi kept in mind in his heart, and there will be a retribution! He said with a deep sigh.
How dare Pei Guo hold it up? Hurriedly stopped eating, returned to salute, and said in his heart: It turns out that Chen is engaged in a big name called Chen Qingzhi... didn't have time to think about it, and then heard Chen Qingzhi's voice coming: "Presumably Pei Langjun has a lot of questions in his heart at this moment?" ”
Pei Guo froze for a moment, first glanced at Jiuzhen, turned around, and nodded heavily.
Chen Qingzhi said "um", and said leisurely: "Actually, not only Pei Langjun has doubts, but I am also puzzled, I don't know how Pei Langjun could appear here so coincidentally...
Pei Guo was embarrassed, it was not good to answer, it was not good not to answer, and his face turned red. Or Jiuzhen opened his mouth: "Uncle, don't embarrass Pei Lang... You're done! ”
Chen Qingzhi smiled and said, "If it were someone else, I would definitely have to explore it clearly, but Pei Langjun... You don't have to answer me, but if you have any doubts, just ask me! Saying that, he asked the surrounding subordinates to retreat together, leaving Pei Guo, Jiuzhen and himself alone in the field.
When Pei Guo heard this, he became more and more puzzled, but he was relieved in the end. He hesitated a little in his heart, but curiosity always trumped everything, so he cleared his throat at the moment and arched his hand: "Then Pei Guo asked, if there is anything offended, I hope Chen will engage in Haihan." ”
Chen Qingzhi nodded: "But it's okay to ask!" ”
"Chen engaged in a group of thousands of miles, from Jiangdong to the six towns, deeper into the desert... It seems ... It's not an ordinary businessman's doing, is it? ”
"Truth be told, we're not businessmen. My name is Chen Qingzhi, and I live under the account of the history of the assassination of Yuzhou in Daliang, and I am engaged in clerical work. The people who came with me this time,All of them are my Yuzhou generals.,As for Jiuzhen.。。。 You must already know that she is my niece, just because she is good, she is here to help. ”
"Liang Guoyuzhou military general... Pei Guo's eyes flashed: "Dare to ask what is the intention of coming here?" Isn't it just doing business with the creeps? ”
"Naturally, I'm not here to do business." Chen Qingzhi said lightly: "I was ordered to come here to visit the Rouran Lord Anapu and present gifts, thinking that I would make friends!" ”
Pei Guo's pupils shrank: "Liang Guo wants to make friends with the worm?" What is the purpose? Isn't it ... Don't you want to attack my Great Wei from the north and south? So isn't my Six Towns the first to bear the brunt? At this point, the tone is already very unkind.
"Pei Langjun... Jiuzhen watched from the sidelines, a little anxious at this time, and was about to interject, but was stopped by Chen Qingzhi waving his hand.
"Pei Langjun has said it." Chen Qingzhi was not in a hurry: "Qingzhi is only here to act on orders. If you want to say that the two countries have friendship, it is also a common thing, and there is no discussion of attacking your country. ”
"Really?"
"Seriously!" Chen Qingzhi said categorically: "A few years ago, there was endless infighting, and Anapu was still in Mobei alone, and he was able to unify all the departments in a short period of time, which shows that he is capable." Such a character should be paid as soon as possible! After a pause, he opened his mouth again, but his tone became slightly sluggish: "As for... As for what Pei Langjun said, the six towns bore the brunt... Hehe, that's not up to me. Hugh said that the Six Towns were originally set up to resist the Rouran people, and said that in the past two years, Anapu will come to attack in winter, is it possible that all of this is to blame on my Chen Qingzhi? ”
"This..." Pei Guo thought that what Chen Qingzhi said seemed to be reasonable, and he couldn't answer for a while, so he listened to Chen Qingzhi continue: "It is precisely because Anapu is a man of great talent that I opened a gambling house and sold pearls and jade, and all the profits I obtained were exchanged for the most scarce grain and cloth of these Rouran people, and I took the trouble to send them to Mobei to show my sincerity." It's a pity that people are not as good as the sky, and they bumped into the gang of horse thieves who were Hu Lujin, and burned them clean. ”
These words were the same as what Pei Guo overheard on the roof of Qianjinfang that day, Pei Guo no longer had any doubts after hearing this, his face turned pale, and he muttered to himself: "No matter what, Chen is here to do harm and benefit to my Great Wei after all." It's a shame that Hu Lujin burned your grain cart, otherwise, as a Wei person, I would have to light this fire if I don't do it... ”
As soon as these words came out, he was annoyed by Jiuzhen first, and his mouth pouted: "You dare!" Pei Guo didn't want to quarrel with her, so he blushed and didn't speak.
Chen Qingzhi saw it in his eyes and laughed. Pei Guo said angrily: "What do you mean by Chen? ”
Chen Qingzhi's face suddenly straightened: "You Pei Langjun is from Wei?" I don't think so! ”
Pei Guoqi said: "What do you mean by this? ”
Chen Qingzhi said solemnly: "Pei Langjun, you appeared here for no reason, most likely to follow me and wait. Earlier, I said that I would never let go easily if I changed to someone else today, but it doesn't hurt to favor you Pei Langjun, do you know why? ”
"Why?"
Chen Qingzhi did not answer directly, but continued to ask: "Let me ask you, what is the surname of the king of Wei?" ”
"The royal family of Great Wei is surnamed Yuan!"
"Wrong!" Chen Qingzhi sneered: "What surname is Yuan?" Tuoba family's Suo Lu, thinking that changing a Han surname will become the world's Zhengshuo? Amusing! Let me ask you again, what is the surname of Liang Guotianzi? ”
"Last name... Xiao. ”
"Yes!" A look of admiration appeared on Chen Qingzhi's face: "The Xiao family started from Xiao He, the prime minister of the three heroes in the early Han Dynasty, migrated to Lanling, and used Confucianism to inherit the family, and there were outstanding people on behalf of the dynasties, showing off the dynasties, which is really a Chinese high-ranking family!" Now my Liang Tianzi is the successor of the world's Zhengshuo, Wen Taowu strategy, can be called the co-master of China! ”
Pei Guo rolled his eyes: "This... ”
Chen Qingzhi didn't give Pei Guo a chance to argue at all, and his mouth was like a cannon: "What is your surname Pei Langjun?" ”
Pei Guo said angrily: "My surname is naturally Pei!" ”
"Hedong Pei's?"
"Exactly!"
"Then do you know that the Pei clan in Hedong is also a prominent family in the world? You are a dignified descendant of China, how can you be willing to fall and be the people of Huyi? ”
Pei Guo sneered: "It's just nonsense!" How can I be willing to fall? The Great Wei has been established for a long time, and there is not only me Pei Guo under his rule, but the surname Pei is Pei, and there are more... Speaking of this, suddenly his voice was a little low, it turned out that after thinking about it carefully, apart from his deceased father and himself, he had never seen a third surnamed Pei in his life.
Chen Qingzhi also sneered: "There are indeed a lot of Wei surnames Pei, but which one has anything to do with you?" ”
Pei Guo wanted to refute, but remembered that when his father died, he still hated his fellow clans in the past, and his expression was gloomy, and he bowed his head: "I'm afraid it is... No. ”
Chen Qingzhi's voice came from his ears, as if he knew what Pei Guo was thinking: "Actually, you wanted to say that your family migrated from Jiangdong to the Northern Dynasty more than 20 years ago, and there are not a few clan compatriots, right?" ”
Pei Guo was startled, looked up and said, "I... ”
"It's a pity that those people ruthlessly abandoned your father, and they really have nothing to do with you!"
Pei Guo took two steps back: "You... How do you know this? ”
Chen Qingzhi took a step forward: "Not only do I know this, but I also know that within the Pei family clan, there is actually one of your real blood relatives, who is very worried about you!" ”
"Wh... What the? Who are you talking about? ”
