Chapter 5 Hedong Pei's
Pei family! Hedong Pei's!
In the Tang Dynasty, in the feudal society that attaches great importance to the glory of the lintel family, the Pei family occupies a pivotal position, and is a famous family in the history of feudal society, which can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info King Zhou Xi when the sixth Sun Ling was named the king of Jieyi, went to "Yi" from "clothes", with "Pei" as the surname, and it is also the source of the surname Pei in the world. The surname Pei is all from the Pei family of Wenxi, so there is no other Pei in the world.
There is a sentence that describes the development of Pei's "since the Qin and Han dynasties, it has flourished in six dynasties, and it has flourished in the Sui and Tang dynasties." This statement is not false at all, in the Qin and Han dynasties to the Sui and Tang dynasties, Pei's heroes and handsome, famous and virtuous, shoulder to shoulder, glorious prehistory, lush as a forest, generation of great people, brilliant in the annals of history. Especially at the moment, Pei's status is extraordinary.
In the early years, there were five surnames and seven wangs, and the so-called five surnames and seven wangs refer to the Li family of Longxi, the Li family of Zhaojun, the Cui family of Boling, the Cui family of Qinghe, the Lu family of Fanyang, the Zheng family of Xingyang, and the Wang family of Taiyuan.
The status of the five surnames and seven hopes in the hearts of the scholars even exceeds that of the emperors of all dynasties. Because of this, the five surnames and seven wangs were suppressed by the imperial court. During the Zhenguan period, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin had ordered the ministers to repair the "Clan Chronicles" to raise the royal family, and suppressed the Shandong scholars, and in the Gaozong era, it was directly in the form of law to promulgate the edict banning marriage, prohibiting intermarriage within the family, but the effect was not very obvious, until after Gaozong, there was a rare female emperor Wu Zetian.
Wu Zetian talked about talent far inferior to Taizong and Gaozong, but she was better than a ruthless word. Zhou Xing, Lai Junchen, Suo Yuanli and other cool officials were appointed to slaughter and cleanse the power of the scholars in the court, and through the reform of the imperial examination to support the Shu people, etc., the influence of the scholars was directly and indirectly weakened, and the five surnames and seven wangs bore the brunt...... caused the five surnames and seven hopes to be greatly injured. In contrast, the Hedong Pei family, which is second to the five surnames and seven wangs, has also been affected to a certain extent, but it is far less than the former and suffered heavy losses. There is even a momentum of catching up.
The key to maintaining the status of the gate valve family lies in talents, and the more talents, the more the family rises and falls.
For some reason, for the cultivation of talents in the clan, whether it is the five surnames Qiwang or the Hedong Pei family or even the third-class and fourth-class scholars, they are worthy of their efforts.
This time, Sun Yan, the governor of Youzhou, led 100,000 troops to invade Li Dayu of the Xi nationality, but he ended up with the annihilation of the whole army, and he was captured, resulting in the collapse of the Youzhou defense line for thousands of miles, and the Xi people invaded and wantonly plundered Yuyang, Yongnu and other important counties, causing huge casualties. This is a military incident that has caused a sensation throughout the country, from the beginning to the end, the only person who can be put on the table on the Li Tang side is a person from the Pei family.
A clan despised Pei Min, the son of the descendants of the Pei family, who was almost expelled from the Pei family, and killed the eldest son of Li Dayu, the king of Xi, among hundreds of people, led the people in the county to annihilate thousands of Xi elites, and captured more than 1,000 excellent military horses. These can be regarded as the best results against the Xi people in recent years. Sun Yan's incompetence contrasts sharply with Pei Min's performance. The deeds and fame have also been widely spread, and everyone in the Tang Dynasty has praised them.
In the face of the inexplicable appearance of such a talent in the clan, the Pei family attaches great importance to it. The current head of the Pei family personally ordered that the head of the Pei family in Youzhou personally investigate Pei Min's reality, arrange Pei Min's studies, and use the strength of the family to cultivate with all his might. It's just that Pei Min is seriously ill and has to postpone the time.
Pei's set five rooms: one of the west of Pei, the second of the horse Pei, the third south to Wu Pei, the fourth of Pei, the fifth of the east Pei, the five rooms are divided into three branches of Hedong, Youzhou, Xiliang three places, there is a respected patriarch and three places in charge. The steward of the Pei family, who is in charge of Youzhou, is called Pei Yu, and he is the descendant of Pei Pei Wei, who is in Youzhou, and has great prestige.
At this moment, Pei Yu has a number of Pei Min's documents and reports in front of him, all of which are the results of his detailed investigation with manpower and material resources these days.
"Little one, it's not easy! turned out to be an all-round talent in civil and military affairs. Pei Yu couldn't put it down, took the report in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, and said with a smile to his son Pei Yuan, who had sorted out the information and showed him.
Pei Yuan said: "When the child sorted out the information sent below a few days ago, he was also taken aback by this. Literary and cai, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are all involved, all of which have a lot of standards. The so-called pearl is dusty, and that's not what it says. ā
"The pearl is covered in dust!" Pei Yu shook the information in his hand and said, "I believe that even if there is no invasion of the Xi clan, he will have some achievements." It's just a little inferior...... This son is so good at martial arts at a young age, and his literature and homework are all first-class, and he can get out of a world no matter whether he is from literature or martial arts. Such a talent, he was really wronged in Jicheng School, and his father planned to recommend him to Jishan School in Hedong, what do you think? ā
There was a hint of envy in Pei Yuan's eyes, Jishan Shushu was the best school within the Pei family in Hedong, and most of the Pei children who studied in it were all handsome men who were fully cultivated and supported by the clan. And the gentlemen who teach their studies are all well-known people in the officialdom, and even the retired Zaisuke, what they learn is the real practical knowledge that is really used in the officialdom, not the sage knowledge in the books. Pei's most famous prime ministers, Pei Lian, Pei Ju, and Pei Xingjian, all served as teachers at Jishan Shoku. As long as he successfully graduated from Jishan Shoku, the family would recommend him to join the court as an official with his family connections, so as to embark on the administrative road. If you go far, you will naturally be a minister of Zaifu above 10,000 people under one person, and you will go down in history, even if your career is bleak, it is also a county and county too guard, a long history, and you can live a good life.
Pei Yuan tried his best to enter Jishan School in his early years, but he was never qualified enough. I still have some regrets, why didn't I work harder at the beginning. He sighed with emotion, and then smiled: "The child also thinks it is feasible!" ā
**********
Youzhou Jicheng, post house.
100,000 urgent edicts have been sent here from the distant capital of Chang'an!
The emperor issued an edict and the governor Shi Xuene, who succeeded to the position of governor of Youzhou on the same day, to calm the people's hearts and consolidate the border defense to resist foreign invaders. Encyclical! August 2 of the first year of Yanhe!
Xue Ne, who officially succeeded as the governor of Youzhou, took over the edict issued by the new emperor Li Longji with a spring breeze, and once again took charge of the power of Youzhou's soldiers and horses.
In the face of the celebration of the old generals, Xue Nezhi was complacent, but also had a feeling of being at a loss: Youzhou can be described as a second hometown for him, he was already in charge of the Youzhou defense line as early as the Wu Zetian period, and guarded this place for many years, but because of the discord with Li Jin, the assassin of Yanzhou, the emperor Li Dan was transferred to Bingzhou, and Sun Yan took over the position of the governor of Youzhou. Because of this change, the border army of the Tang Army was almost completely annihilated. The border army that he has accumulated and trained for more than ten years has been defeated by Sun Yan. Now he is called the Governor of Youzhou, but he is poor and white, he has no soldiers, no money, only more than 1,000 war horses, or a young man under the age of eighteen who has just been captured.
