Chang'an, Pei Mansion!

This Pei Mansion is not the Pei Mansion.

It is the residence of Pei Xingjian, a famous general of the Gaozong Dynasty.

Cui Xuan of the Cui family, Lu Wei of the Lu family, Zheng Qian of the Zheng family, and Li Zai of the Li family visited Mrs. Kudi of Huayang overnight.

Compared with the leisurely Pei Min, everyone in the world who is involved in many of them is naturally the most anxious.

The more time dragged on, the more dangerous it would be for their people to be involved.

Involved in false accusations and rebellion, participating in anti-court organizations, as long as you enter, life and death are not to be said, and your political future will inevitably be scrapped.

The family has survived to this day, and talent is the key to their continued life.

It is not easy to train an official with both ability and political integrity, and it is a great loss for one more person to be implicated.

Therefore, as soon as they got the news of Song Jing, Su Ying and others, the representatives led by the four of them had already sent a letter of worship and started to act.

But Pei Min is not an easy person.

Cui Xuan, Lu Wei, Zheng Qian, and Li Zai are above Pei Min every year.

Especially Cui Xuan, because the Cui family is the main person, the patriarch was directly implicated and sent to prison.

In place of the Cui family, the clan elder is eighty-two this year, and in terms of generation, they are all Pei Min's grandfathers.

But they didn't dare to underestimate Pei Min, a young man.

After summing up, they chose to find the Pei family's Huayang wife Kudi first to come forward for them and say good things.

Pei Min's respect for the Kudi clan is obvious to all.

Looking at the steward of the four-surnamed family who is quite related to the Pei family at this moment, the Kudi clan also has a feeling of sympathy.

In the years of taking over the Pei family, Kudi has a feeling.

After the Wu Zetian period, the family had a brief period of glory.

But the path behind this glory is getting narrower and narrower, and the living space is constantly compressed, giving her a feeling of desperation.

Kudi has followed Wu Zetian for a long time and has excellent insight in the political arena, and he knows very well that this feeling is not overthinking, let alone groundless, it is an established fact that is about to happen.

For the four people who came to the door, although there was a certain estrangement between each other before, Kudi still decided to repay the grievances with virtue, and said: "Pei Guogong has always been assertive, and the old man may not be able to speak in front of him. However, Guogong has the meaning of forgiveness, and the old body does not mind selling a few thin noodles, whether it is successful or not, it depends on Guogong himself. ”

"Nature, Nature!"

I thought it would be a little difficult, and I didn't want the Kudi clan to agree so happily.

Cui Xuan, Lu Wei, Zheng Qian, and Li Zai were all ashamed, looking at the old woman who was famous all over the world, they couldn't help but admire it in their hearts, and they were full of gratitude, and they said goodbye and left.

However, the son of the Kudi clan, Honglu Shaoqing, Pei Guangting, was a little displeased.

Wu Zetian cleaned the family, and the Pei family suffered the least under the protection of the Kudi clan.

There are faint signs of coming from behind, side by side with the five surnames.

For this reason, the Pei family was secretly resisted by the five surnamed families, and Pei Min's matter caused the Pei family to lose face and miss the opportunity to become a wealthy family.

"Mother, why are you on their side? What did they do to us in the first place? It's really not worth it to sell face for them. ”

Kudi said: "Mother is not all for them, Pei Guogong's temperament, for the mother still doesn't know?" In small things, he will pay attention to face, and it is useless for anyone to say anything about such big things. The main purpose of going here for my mother is to explore the wind. Understand the general trend and determine the future development of the Pei family. My mother feels that tomorrow's meeting will set our future path. ”

Hearing his mother say this, Pei Guangting had nothing to say.

As Pei Xingjian's son, Pei Guangting's work is far less than that of his father.

The only thing commendable about him is that he is serious and rigorous, but when it comes to talent, he is really worthy of his parents' excellent genes.

His ability to reach today's high position is inseparable from the extraordinary political vision of the Cudi clan.

Now as long as people are mixed in the political field, they all know that Zhang Shuo will be Song Jing's successor.

However, when Zhang Shuo was activated, and Li Longji had not yet shown his reuse of Zhang Shuo, he had already expected that Zhang Shuo would be the future prime minister, so Pei Guangting had more contact with him.

There are very few people in the world today who can compare with her political vision.

The next day, Cui Xuan, Lu Wei, Zheng Qian, Li Zai, and the other thoughtful Kudi clan came to visit Pei's mansion.

Pei Min was waiting in the mansion early in the morning.

Looking at the unexpected Kudi clan, Pei Min was a little puzzled, but still invited them into the mansion.

In the living room, sit down for tea.

Before he had time to introduce himself, Cui Xuan bowed deeply to Pei Min and said sincerely: "The younger generation of the Cui family, arrogant, ignorant, lawless, offending the national government, deserves it." As an elder, the old man failed to persuade in time, and here on behalf of the Cui family, he made amends to the Guogong. ”

Lu Wei also said: "The Lu family, Lu Qi, has a dark heart, disturbs the heavens, and makes the Duke of the country wronged, which is the fault of my Lu family." Fortunately, Pei Guogong is a celestial person. Originally, it was my father who came, but because of Lu Qi's incident, my father was so angry that he was sick in bed, and Lu Wei also apologized for his father on behalf of the Lu family to the national government. ”

Zheng Qian and Li Zai also bowed on the side.

Cui and Lu did not shirk their responsibilities, but directly undertook them, and their apologies were sincere.

Bowing is not the same as bowing.

The meaning of making a gesture is similar to that of arching hands and holding fists, which is a mutual politeness and courtesy, which is of a relative nature.

The bow is based on the waist, and the entire waist and shoulders are tilted forward, and the knees are bent and bent to show respect.

Bowing is a form of worship that is rarely seen in real life.

In their capacity, they do such a great gift.

Seeing both the sincerity of their intentions, but also their situation is not optimistic.

Pei Min didn't have a good impression of the five-surname family, but an old man like Cui Xuan gave him such a big gift, but he also thought that he couldn't afford it, so he stepped forward one step at a time, helped the four of them up one by one, and said: "Don't be embarrassed, you are all elders, such a big gift, the younger generation can't afford it!" ”

His attitude is sincere, and he is not pretentious, especially for an elderly man like Cui Xuan.

Cui Xuan, Lu Wei, Zheng Qian, and Li Zai couldn't help but sigh, and they all thought in their hearts, why weren't such characters born in their families.

For today's meeting, it is even more heavy.

As representatives, the four of them are the elites of the clan, and it is not difficult to see that Pei Min has no disgust or hatred for them.

The more this is the case, the more it means that Pei Min has other plans and other purposes.

The safety of their whole clan is in each other's hands, and where is the purpose small?

Pei Min invited the four of them back to their seats one by one.

Cui Xuan said sincerely: "Guogong is a person who understands, and after being cleaned by the cool officials of the martial arts, we have five surnames and seven hopes, and almost exist in name only." As a thousand-year-old famous family, the clansmen want to glorify the lintel too much, and reproduce the glory of the attack, so that they have taken a crooked path. Now that the consequences have been tasted, we have paid a heavy price. As the old saying goes: it can be changed after a while, and it is great to be good, and I hope that the prince can raise his noble hand. ”

"Wangguo Gong raises his noble hand!"

Lu Wei, Zheng Qian, and Li Zai once again bowed straight.
