In the first battle of Guang'en Town, almost all the 40,000 soldiers and horses of Tubo were wiped out, and the veteran general Kun Dayan fell into the hands of Li Yide and was captured by the Tang army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This battle was the biggest victory after the invasion war and the official friendship between the Tang Dynasty and Tibet.

Longxi and Liangzhou launched a rush attack on the Tubo soldiers outside Guangen Town under Pei Min's needle lead. Directly made the residents of Tubo in Jiuqu, Hexi, angry, and invariably moved their herds closer to Qinghai Lake, not daring to get too close to Guangen Town.

After repeated defeats, Tubo no longer had that lofty attitude, and honestly picked up his dog's tail in accordance with the rules.

Guangenzhen's victory did not reach Chang'an for a while, and Pei Min did not take this matter to heart. He believes that with Feng Changqing, Guo Zhiyun, and Xue Ne's ability, even if there are unforeseen changes, they have enough ability to make reasonable responses on the fly.

After having a good drink with He Zhizhang, he returned to Pei's Mansion with a drunken spirit.

Pei Min's amount of alcohol has already been trained, and in the face of ancient wine with an alcohol content similar to beer, he drank more than ten catties at all, and his face was still not red or panting.

"Childe!"

The moment Pei Min walked into the mansion, the housekeeper Ning Ze greeted him and reported on the things he arranged today: "After receiving the son's greetings, all the families responded enthusiastically and said that they were waiting for them at any time. As for the time, it is up to Childe to decide. ”

Pei Min nodded, when it comes to identity, he is a national prince and a local assassin history, except for Guo Yuanzhen's status above him, other identities and statuses are not as good as him, and it is naturally up to him to decide when to meet. As for Guo Yuanzhen, he has been at home for physical reasons, so he can naturally do it at any time.

"The same is true of my uncle's house?"

Ning Ze naturally knew who the "uncle" was referring to, and before Pei Min left Chang'an to take up his post in Taozhou, he had specially reminded him and asked him to pay attention to the situation of the Yan family from time to time. If there is a situation, report it to him immediately and say: "It's the same, it's just that there is news from the Yan Mansion that Uncle Yan is a little unwell, and I am afraid that he will not be able to entertain him well." ”

Pei Min hurriedly asked the reason.

"I heard I'm tired!" Ning Ze said: "Dr. Yan is busy compiling a book of "Ganlu Character Book", working day and night, and he is tired. News came from the Yan Mansion that he was not seriously ill and did not need to be cared for. ”

Pei Min immediately said: "Don't go into the stable, you prepare some health supplements for me, I'll wash off the smell of wine and visit immediately." As for the post, the others delayed another reply and went to visit Guo Xiang tomorrow. ”

He chose to wash in the bathroom of the martial arts arena nearby, and the door was opened, but Jiao Chen, who heard the news, came to send a change of clothes.

"I'll be back later in the evening!"

Jiao Chen smiled and said, "I also say hello to my uncle and aunt on behalf of my concubine!" She knew that Pei Min and Yan Gaoqing were in a relationship of worshipping relatives, and followed the call of an uncle and aunt. She carefully served Pei Min and got dressed, took a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, poured out a small green pill and said, "Lang Jun holds this silver pill, which can relieve the taste of wine in his mouth, and also has the effect of refreshing and sobering up." ”

"It's still a lady's heart!" Pei Min really ignored the taste of wine in his mouth, and saw that Jiao Chen was careful and thoughtful, and he had the feeling that his wife was like this, and his husband had nothing more to ask for, so he opened his mouth with a smile.

Jiao Chen gave him a strange look and fed the small pill into his mouth.

The main ingredient of the silver pill is silver pill, that is, mint, and when the pill enters the mouth, the cool and pleasant feeling reverberates in the mouth, just like the mint candy in later generations.

Taking advantage of the dusk, Pei Min came to Yan's Mansion with gifts.

For Pei Min's arrival, the Yan Mansion naturally warmly welcomed. At the beginning, Yan Yuansun was suppressed and excluded by Wang Ju, but he came forward to solve the matter. It is also because of his relationship that Yan Yuansun is like He Zhizhang, no one targets him, and he works comfortably in his position. Yan Yuansun is not like his son Yan Gaoqing, who has excellent statecraft. But he is good at culture, and is the most popular of the 72 sages of Confucius, Yan Hui's descendants, and his family has been a cultural Confucian for generations, and his level of literary education is extremely high.

Li Longji used his talents and transferred Yan Yuansun to the secretary province to manage all the books in the library of the Tang Hongwen Pavilion.

This position is exactly what Yan Yuansun likes, he has done an extremely good job, and he has been promoted to secretary and doctor.

Yan Yuansun has been influenced by his family since he was a child, and he is particularly fond of cultural doctrines. His uncle Yan Shigu once wrote a volume of "Characters", which was used as the basis for proofreading the correctness and error of regular scripts. However, at that time, the classics were unfounded, although the number of words increased, but there was a lack of order, there were no words that should be, and some were not correct. He consulted various materials in the library of Hongwenguan to distinguish the orthodox writing of regular script strokes, which was used as a reference for writing for officials and examinations, so he named it "Ganlu Zishu".

He worked hard to write the "Ganlu Character Book", but after this compilation, he was tired because of it.

Seeing Yan Yuansun again, Yan Yuansun's expression was even paler than what he had seen at the beginning, especially those eyes were lifeless, as if he was waiting to die, Pei Min had a bad premonition, Yan Yuansun's expression was not as "uncomfortable" as Ning Ze said, he was already extremely sick, and said, "Why should Uncle be like this?" ”

Yan Yuansun smiled weakly: "To be able to modify the "Characters" and become the "Ganlu Character Book", my uncle's wish has been fulfilled." You put your career first, how can you let you worry and delay your future? ”

Pei Min didn't know what to say, he admired Yan Yuansun's spirit of being keen on culture, but in order to publish a book, he didn't cherish his life, he felt deeply worthless.

However, Pei Min also knows that children are not fishes, and they don't know the joy of fish. Perhaps in Yan Yuansun's heart, it is worth everything to be able to leave his mark in history for future generations and pass on the culture of the sages.

Pei Min sighed and said, "Uncle, the completion of the "Ganlu Character Book" is indeed worth rejoicing. But to say that the wish has been fulfilled, it is over. is a nephew who is far away in Taozhou and has heard about Brother Yan. Brother Yan's official name is Fang Xian, and a great prospect awaits him. Doesn't my uncle want to see Brother Yan promoted to the county commander? So as to become a Taishou, assassin history? "Yan Gaoqing is as outstanding as in history, he served as a record officer in Weizhou to join the army, his political achievements are excellent, and the national officials evaluate that Yan Gaoqing won the first place in the program, which can be called a promising future.

Yan Yuansun's lifeless eyes flashed a trace of struggle, and he was silent.

Pei Min came to the side with Yan Yuansun's wife, Yuanshi, and said in a low voice, "Can you invite a doctor?" What did the doctor say? ”

Yuanshi lowered his head and wept and said: "Doctor Liu has come to see him, he said that he is terminally ill and has not paid attention to his body recuperation, and he is no longer good." ”

Pei Min was also a little sad in his heart, and said, "Have you informed Brother Yan?" ”

Yuan shook his head and said, "He didn't let him say it, saying that it couldn't affect the child's career." ”

Pei Min hurriedly said: "When is it, can you still take care of these?" Listen to me, inform Brother Yan directly, as for Brother Yan's future, my aunt doesn't have to worry about this at all. Brother Yan's talent in governing the world is rare in the world, and he is like a pearl, and he will shine wherever he goes. Why worry about his future, and besides, me! Taozhou is far less prosperous than Weizhou, but if Brother Yan is willing to give in, his nephew will definitely wait for him. ”

Yuan Shi looked at Yan Yuansun and then at Pei Min, and said for a while: "Then listen to the virtuous nephew, and then send someone to summon Xin'er back." ”

Yan Yuansun didn't wait for Yan Gaoqing after all, and on the night of the next day, Yan Yuansun couldn't stay up and died.

Pei Min got the news in the early morning of the third day, and rushed to Yan's mansion non-stop, but heard a noisy sound in the lobby.

"No, absolutely not!" One person said angrily: "I'm about to take the test, and I'm going to wear filial piety and guard the spirit, wouldn't it be unlucky." It's about the future, I don't do this, I can't say anything! ”

"Brother is unwilling, Zhenqing is here." A tender voice, with crying and determination, said loudly.

The man immediately said: "Yes, you can let Zhenqing come to wear filial piety and guard the spirit, he doesn't take the exam, so he doesn't need to be taboo." ”

"What's going on?" Pei Min looked at the concierge with a little anger.

The porter explained the situation in detail with some difficulty.

It turned out that Yan Yuansun had a single lineage, and there was only one son, Yan Gaoqing. Yan Gaoqing is far away in Weizhou, and there are no children of the past generation who guard the spirit and wear filial piety. Yan Yuansun's younger brother Yan Weizhen is a flower, and there are seven sons, including Yan Queyi, Yan Yunnan, Yan Qiaoqing, Yan Zhenchang, Yan Youyu, Yan Zhenqing, and Yan Yunzang. However, Yan Weizhen died early, and Yan Weizhen was mostly raised by Yan Yuansun.

According to custom, the deceased will go home to visit three days later, and as a child, he should wear linen and filial piety, and first keep a vigil for three days.

Yan Weizhen's lineage, Yan Quemi, Yan Yunnan, Yan Zhenchang, and Yan Youyu are not in Chang'an, only Yan Qiaoqing, Yan Zhenqing, and Yan Yunzang are there.

Yan Zhenqing and Yan Yunzang are still young, and only Yan Qiaoqing is a suitable candidate.

But Yan Qiaoqing is preparing for the examination and has the intention to participate in the imperial examination next year.

Yan Qiaoqing was taboo, and for the sake of the future, she refused to agree to Yuan's request, and even made a fuss.

Walking into the hall, I saw Yuan Shi dressed in plain clothes and was secretly weeping.

Yan Zhenqing, a hairy child who vaguely looked like a young child back then, was looking at a person angrily, the person looked up, not even wearing filial piety clothes, and resisted.

"It's not as sensible as a child! It is unfortunate that the ancestor has such descendants. Pei Min strode to the front of the hall, and he didn't look at Yan Qiaoqing, as if he was afraid of dirty eyes. The first teacher refers to Yan Hui, the head of the seventy-two sages of Confucius, and during the Taizong period, Yan Hui Li Shimin personally issued an edict to respect him as the "first teacher".

Yan Qiaoqing's face was irritable, and she said angrily: "Our Yan family affairs, we don't need outsiders to worry about it!" ”

Pei Min didn't want to quarrel with him at this time, so he came to the Yuan clan and bowed: "Uncle passed away, and my nephew is deeply saddened. Brother Yan is my best confidant and close friend, and we are like brothers. If my aunt doesn't dislike it, before Brother Yan comes back, I will guard the spirit and wear filial piety, and I will do my filial piety for him! Zhenqing is indeed sensible, but after all, she is still young and can't hold on. ”

Yuan looked at Pei Min with some distraction, as if he suspected that he had heard it wrong, but seeing Pei Min's sincere expression, he sighed lightly: "My son has a confidant like you, and I have no regrets in this life!" ”

"Confidants are mutual, and nephews have no regrets!"
