Chapter 151: Family Crest
"Your Majesty is probably too late to attack Xiliang now, and the battle between the crown prince and the Yangzhou assassin in front of him is enough to make him anxious." Li Xinchen said in a deep voice, "However, attacking Xiliang is a move that we have to take no matter what, and for the entire Da Chen. ”
Pei Zilie bowed slightly, and while playing with the wine glass, he said softly: "Actually, what is the most curious and worried about is His Majesty's mind now. What is His Majesty's attitude towards the crown prince and the Yangzhou assassin history, now there is no intention to depose the prince, but there is no intention to suppress the Yangzhou assassin history, although the king's heart is unpredictable, but this is also ······"
"Maybe this can be regarded as a test for the crown prince by His Majesty," Li Xinchen rubbed his chin slightly, after all, Pei Zilie asked not only his own doubts, presumably all the people in this whirlpool now have the same doubts, especially Li Xinchen, they can already be said to be standing in the center of the whirlpool, "It is more or a kind of experience." ”
"Oh?" Pei Zilie was stunned, "Shizhong, are you saying that Your Majesty just uses the Yangzhou Assassin History as a whetstone?" ”
"Nope." Li Xinchen squatted on the table with the wine glass in his hand, and said in a low voice, "It's not so much another whetstone, but another blade, and now Your Majesty gives them a chance to fight fairly, whoever can win can ascend to the throne." ”
The wine glass in Pei Zilie's hand was almost crushed by him directly, but fortunately, Pei Zilie has always been calm-minded, not Xiao Shilian's kind of master who will shout at the slightest triviality, the look of shock on his face was barely suppressed, and he tried his best to lower his voice: "Are you sure?" ”
"How could I be sure." Li Xinchen snorted.
In history, Chen Ji died in a few years, even if she really had any arrangements, it didn't work. According to Chen Shuling's ability to easily assassinate Chen Shubao in front of Chen Ji's coffin, it can be seen that Chen Shuling has a good arrangement, and Chen Ji obviously did not restrict him too much, but unfortunately Chen Ji's life is too short.
And Li Xinchen was able to come to such a conclusion, half based on the history he knew, and half because of speculation about Chen Xu's current abnormal reaction.
didn't expect to be bluntly denied by Li Xinchen, Pei Zilie poured a full wine and drank it all: "You really dare to guess." ”
"Yangzhou Thorn Shi dares to do it, why can't we guess?" Li Xinchen said with a smile, and stretched out his hand to help Pei Zilie again, "That's it, let's not talk about this matter, there is still a question I want to ask here." ”
Pei Zilie pointed to Li Xinchen's wine glass that didn't go down much: "You don't have any sincerity at all, let's finish this glass first." ”
"You don't know the amount of alcohol your little brother, this cup is down, and I don't know how to be scolded by Pian Er when I get up tomorrow morning." Li Xinchen frowned, and immediately took out a square handkerchief from the small pocket in his arms, and unfolded the square handkerchief, which was the sachet that Li gave him in the back of the village.
The only sachet that has the potential to prove Li Xinchen's identity.
Seeing this sachet, Pei Zilie, who was still a little unhappy and wanted to urge Li Xinchen to hurry up and drink the cup, stopped talking, and just looked at Li Xinchen quietly.
"This is what Daddy found next to me when he picked me up, and there are some delicate embroidered lines on the sachet, which Daddy thinks is extraordinary, so he has kept it by his side all these years." Li Xinchen said slowly, "Brother Pei was born in a family and is well-informed, and he bothers Brother Pei to help the younger brother see, what is the origin of this sachet?" ”
Pei Zilie solemnly bowed his head, Li Xinchen had never taken it out before, and taking it out at this time was a trust in him Pei Zilie. Of course, such a sachet with exquisite patterns is definitely not something that ordinary people can have, and Xiao Maha or Xiao Shilian, who are from a poor family, will definitely not be able to recognize it, so it is useless to take it out.
As for Wu Mingche, Xu Ling and others, it is obvious that Li Xinchen can't believe it.
With a heavy heart, Pei Zilie stretched out his hand and carefully unfolded the sachet that was a little faded in these places, and looked at the pattern on it: "This······ I don't recognize it, but it's probably the crest or mark of a certain family. ”
Li Xinchen raised his eyebrows: "Family crest?" ”
Pei Zilie nodded: "Maybe Brother Shizhong doesn't know, the most important thing for the family gate valve is blood and origin, in order to distinguish the members of the family from the outside, they often design a family crest or other marks with their own characteristics, and decorate it on the clothes of their families and relatives, and it is commonplace to embroider on this kind of sachet." ”
After a pause, Pei Zilie recalled, and said: "A certain Pei family was born in the Wenxi Pei family, and there is a cypress tree in front of the Pei family, so the location of the family is also called Pei Bai Village, and the corresponding family has always used the cypress tree as the family crest, and the cypress branches and leaves as decorations and signs. When outsiders see the clothes or the signs of cypress trees on this sachet, they know that it is from the Pei family. ”
Gently playing with the sachet, Pei Zilie frowned and said: "There are countless Jiangnan families, large and small, but I have seen most of them or family crests, but I have never seen such a thing. ”
"So, this shouldn't be ······" Li Xinchen exhaled softly, for him, although he had a certain illusion, he was also ready to be disillusioned early, after all, the current Li Xinchen did not expect a family that might be related to him suddenly appeared.
"Shizhong, you also know that the ups and downs of the family have changed rapidly in recent years, and some once glorious families will soon fall into the dust, such as the Wang Xie family in Wuyi Lane back then, which have long since disappeared." Pei Zilie pondered and said, "It's been decades, maybe······ Well, you know what I mean, don't take it to heart. ”
Li Xinchen bowed slightly: "It's okay, I don't care if I have such a background now, Brother Pei's meaning is clear, if I can find it, I don't know how to face it." It's not necessarily a good thing to have something extraneous at this time. ”
"Well," Pei Zilie nodded, "But then again, there is actually another possibility, that is, this bag is not my Southern Dynasty family, but belongs to a certain family of the Northern Dynasty." There are also many families in the Northern Dynasties, and my Pei family crossed from the north to the south, rooted in the Southern Dynasties, and has few contacts with the northern family, let alone with the rest of the families in the north, so I don't know what the family crests and marks of those family gate valves are. ”
Li Xinchen was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "It's better to mix less with the gate valve of the northern family." ”
"Well, what I said today, Shizhong, you remember it in your heart, if it is a coincidence in the future, maybe you can find clues." Pei Zilie took a sip of wine, "Come on, come on, don't think about these troubles, let's drink!" ”
Li Xinchen nodded solemnly and picked up his wine glass.
