In fact, Wang Zan had long wanted to run away, but he was a scholar, and he had never been assertive, and he had been following Gou Xi to fight in the south and the north, so he habitually wanted to see Gou Xi's face and act. Originally, he looked at Shi Le and valued Gou Xi, and Gou Xi seemed to have completely abandoned the fantastic past and sincerely assisted Shi Le, so he had to hold back that little bit of caution in his heart. Unexpectedly, tonight's words, Gou Xi actually took the initiative to leave, Wang Zan was silent on the surface, but in fact, he was already happy in his heart.

Gou Xi disobeys Shi Le, pure ambition, no matter how much Shi Le reuses him, after all, Gou Dao will be the best of the best, you let him nest under the hands of a general of Hu Hanguo as a staff, how to fill this psychological gap? Unless the Han lord Liu Cong issued an edict to pay homage to the prime minister, or even pay the duke, he would never bow down!

Therefore, as soon as the crisis of being captured at the beginning passed, Gou Xi quickly became rebellious.

As for Wang Zan and Wang Zhengchang, he was not used to the vulgar warriors in Shile's army, especially General Hu. Although his background is not very high, he is a cultural person after all, how can he be with those old and rough people for a long time? Just meeting and greeting people gives people goosebumps, so if they get the chance, they also want to get out of Hu Ying.

However, if only Gou Xi, Gou Chun and Wang Zan are the three of them, plus a small number of subordinates and house slaves, they will inevitably be weak, even if they can successfully escape from Shile's camp and find a suitable place to regroup, it will be quite difficult, so Wang Zan suggested that a few more people should be involved. He first recommended Pei Gai to Gou Xi - in his interactions with Pei Gai in these days, he vaguely sensed the young man's contempt for Hu Ren's inliteracy, and felt that the other party's intentions should be secretly in line with his own, maybe it could be said that he moved.

After all, the Pei family is a big clan in Hedong, and the prime minister for generations, in addition to Pei Xianjian in Youzhou Wang Jun, Pei Xian's brother Pei Wu is the Xuansu Taishou, Pei Bao is the Qinzhou Thorn History, Pei Cui is the Wuwei Taishou, or in the Northeast, or in the Northwest, they all still retain a certain degree of political influence and even military strength. Pei should be the son-in-law of the main branch, and there is a princess of the East China Sea standing behind him, if he can use these two as a call, I believe it will be of great benefit to find a foothold in the future.

Although Gou Xi doesn't like Pei Gai very much, he has to admit that what Wang Zhengchang said is reasonable-the young family's background can still play a role. But he had little contact with Pei Gai, and suspected that Pei Gai had completely surrendered to Shile, so he specially instructed Wang Zan that you could go and find out the tone of that kid, but be very careful, don't leak our bottom - if he goes to tell Shile, then our lives will be in danger!

Wang Zan nodded, and said Don't worry, I will definitely be cautious about my life. Then he said again: "'Gentleman's Camp' Qu Bin Qu Mofeng, it seems that there is also a sense of resentment against Hu people......"

Gou Xi frowned: "This person was whipped because of me, I'm afraid that he will resent me even more, right?" ”

Wang Zan said no. He was whipped by Shile that day, I think you are doing this, you are doing it in a good way...... How could he bully the old men under him? Isn't it a grudge? So I went to visit Qu Bin and explained to him that Gou Sima did not harm him, and that his original intention was just to ask you to be cautious in your words and deeds......

Wang Zan said that my original intention was just to help you reconcile the contradictions with the "gentleman's camp", who would have thought that after a sincere conversation with Qu Bin, he found that he did not resent you in his heart, but he resented Hu Ren very much. It is said that he has also been whipped by Hu Jiang many times before—not just Shi Le—and often gritted his teeth and hated, saying: "I am well-dressed and Chinese, how can I be humiliated by a miscellaneous Hu?!" ”

Wang Zan approached Gou Xi and said in a low voice: "Although Qu Bin's status is not very respectful, after all, he has been in Huying for many years, and all parties are familiar with the situation. Gou Xi pondered for a long time, suddenly picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and said in a deep voice: "Since ancient times, how can anyone who wants to achieve great things not take risks?" Zhengchang can persuade this person for me, if he has to get rid of the herdsman and establish a foundation in Hebei, I will protect him with a thorn history! ”

——————————

After Wang Zan left Gou Xi, he first went to find Qu Bin - because he felt that Qu Bin had already stepped on one of our boats, and he only needed to pull it gently, unlike Pei Gai, after all, he didn't have time to inquire about what his heart was.

Sure enough, after a little temptation and instigation, Qu Bin revealed his willingness to follow Gou, Wang and others to escape, and when he heard that Gou Xi had allowed him to serve as a assassin, he immediately ignored the whiplash on his body that had not healed, gritted his teeth and turned over, and cried to Wang Zan on the ground: "If you have to be rescued by Gong Gou, get out of this thief cave, do you dare not to repay yourself?!" ”

Wang Zan soothed and encouraged Qu Bin with kind words to recuperate and wait for the time to come. Then he asked again: "Is Mo Feng familiar with Pei Wenyu?" Do you know if you are willing to do it from us? ”

Hearing the words "Pei Wenyue", Qu Bin's eyes couldn't help but darken, but he quickly turned his head to avoid being discovered by Wang Zan with the resentment implied in his expression. After a pause, he finally replied, "I don't know much either." But I listened to the explanation...... Shi Le recruited him with great sincerity, and even wanted to make him the deputy governor of the 'gentleman's camp', but he gave up because of the opposition of the masses...... Such people may not be moved by words. ”

Wang Zan said that I have also heard about this, and I have also heard that Shi Le once wanted to appoint Pei Cai as the right horse, but the result was still broken and fattened-"Yu is just sorting out some brief books with him now, so if he is so idle, does he have no resentment in his heart?" ”

Qu Bin's lips trembled slightly, his eyes rolled, and he replied: "Instead of talking about Pei Wenyue, it is better to talk about the princess of the East China Sea." The princess used to be clothed and fed, but now in the army, there is only one maidservant to serve, and if she is a prisoner, she will not be willing to live for a long time and want to leave. If the princess has a life, I believe that Pei Wenyue will not dare to disobey, even if he still does not obey, for fear of affecting the princess, he will not dare to report me and wait. ”

Wang Zan slapped his face and said that the ink seal you This strategy is really wonderful! Okay, I'll look for another opportunity to meet the princess. After saying this, he shook hands with Qu Bin again, and earnestly entrusted, and then said goodbye and went out.

Over there, Wang Zan had just walked out of the gate of Qu's house, when he saw the screen behind Qu Bin's sleeping seat closed, and a person stepped out. Qu Bin hurriedly bowed down on the table and saluted: "Sima ......"

The man waved his hand: "Mo Feng, is Qing still unwilling to accept the lesson?" This two words are not allowed to be re-exported. Then he sat down opposite Qu Bin, leaned his head forward, and said in a low voice: "I originally arranged incense bait to catch the whale that swallowed the boat, why did Mo Feng snare one more trash fish to come in?" ”

Qu Bin's face was slightly red, and he snorted and said, "Since you mentioned Pei Wenyue......"

The man smiled faintly: "Mo Feng was humiliated by that villain, and was whipped six times, I have also heard of it-Qing's intentions, I can understand it." But the main spirit must also be placed on the big whale, just a miscellaneous fish, although it is gratifying to gain, it is okay to lose it. ”

Qu Bin argued: "I also took this opportunity to test the heart of that villain, whether he really submitted to Ming Gong......"

The other party glanced at him meaningfully: "When Wang Zhengchang went to talk about Concubine Pei, just as Mo Feng expected, Concubine Pei was unwilling to live in this army...... then the villain will be caught in a dilemma—if he obeys, he will also fall into our trap; If you don't obey your orders, you won't dare to denounce Gou Xi and Wang Zan, and when you kill Gou and Wang on another day, you can use this to implicate Concubine Pei, and then take the villain's head. Inkseal a good strategy! ”

Qu Bin hurriedly bowed down: "Don't dare, how can the last official escape the ...... with this little thought What about Xu Gong's eyes? ”

——————————

Pei Gai didn't sit in the house all day long to sort out brochures and engage in literature and education...... In fact, he was preparing to engage in cultural and educational work, and he also ran out from time to time and rode a horse to wander the streets of Mengcheng, the purpose of which was naturally to spy on the deployment of the Hu Han army. Although I didn't plan to run away from here - it is still far from Jiangdong, and there is Cao Wei in the east and Wang Mi in the south, so I am not afraid to get out of the tiger's den and fall into the wolf's den again - but compared with the layout in Xuchang, Yangxia and other places in the past, we may be able to find out the rules and find out some habitual omissions.

Having held his position, he certainly had more freedom in the army, and he could roam the streets on horseback every day, even if he was close to the city gates, without raising suspicions—of course, it was better not to mention the city. Behind him, there were still a few caretakers...... Oh no, the soldiers who guarded him, and the servant Pei Xiong.

On this day, Pei should come back from shopping - Mengcheng has become a large barracks, and the city is deep and wide, the streets are far wider than Xuchang, and the market is depressed, in fact, there is nothing to "shop" - according to the custom, come to meet Pei Shi and say hello. Pei Shi said to him: "Wang Zhengchang came to visit Wenyue, and when he saw that Qing was not there, he sat down with me to talk about Shaoqing. ”

Pei Cai said "oh", and didn't take it to heart at first-thinking that Wang Zan was also a frequent visitor to his place, so if you don't meet anyone, meeting the elders of the master's family is also the proper meaning of the question-but Pei suddenly leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice and said to him: "Zhengchang is talking to me, it's very unusual......"

Of course, Wang Zan deliberately chose Pei Gai to come over to visit when he was out, because his original intention was to move Concubine Pei first, and then let Concubine Pei influence Pei Gai, and if Pei Gai was still at home, he would inevitably accompany him to meet Concubine Pei, so there would be no chance to talk to Concubine Pei alone. When the two sides met, they first greeted each other, and then naturally led the topic to the life in Luozhong in the past......

Concubine Pei's father, Pei Kang, was the head of the prince's left guard, so she left her hometown at a very young age - Hedong Wenxi - followed her father to live in Luo; Later, he married Sima Yue as his successor, but Sima Yue was also an official in the court most of the time, and rarely went to the fiefdom of the East China Sea. Therefore, most of Concubine Pei's life was spent in Luoyang City.

Speaking of Luozhong scenery and four o'clock Youye - only in spring, there is a New Year's Day greeting, firecrackers and grass; People ascend every day, and give each other Huasheng; On the fifteenth day of the first month, worship the silkworm god; Cold food and fire are forbidden, and candles are passed on during the Qingming Festival; and the Japanese Warrior Girl Companion Tour Lobin...... Waiting for the festival, always metallurgical travel, now when it comes to it, it is full of memories!

Thinking about the past, sentimental Now, when the two of them are talking, they can't help but have a little red eyes, and they only feel in a trance, and the past is like a dream. Wang Zan took the opportunity to ask, is the princess still used to living in the army now? Is there any lack of daily offerings? Pei Shi sighed lightly and replied casually: "How can it be compared with Luo Zhongshi?" ”

Still in Luoyang Palace...... No, even when she was still in her mother's house, she was served by a large group of servants in and out, but now there is only one Yun'er left by her side. At that time, life was first fine clothes and food, and then Zhong Ming Ding food, and there was really whatever he wanted, and both his father and his husband would try their best to get it for themselves—of course, with the insight and imagination of a profound woman, it was impossible to make any too absurd requests; Nowadays, although the food is not lacking, it is not refined enough, and it is impossible to change the clothes and jewelry every day......

Pei Gai's aunt and nephew's daily needs, naturally someone sent them, and the treatment was quite good. However, the materials in the army are limited, and it is impossible to support Pei's family with the specifications of the princess and Pei Gai with the specifications of the Marquis of Nanchang. If you want to eat a few more bites of food, or even a few more bites of meat, it's fine, but if you want to see the sky wearing new clothes, even if there is enough silk silk, then no one will help you cut it, right? Many of the clothes were snatched from nowhere, and Yun'er had to help sew and modify them according to Pei's figure; As for the head of the jewelry, most of them are street goods on the street stalls, and there are very few exquisite ones, which makes it even more difficult to enter Pei's eyes.

Hearing Pei's complaints, Wang Zan immediately hit the snake with the stick, leaned closer and said, "The Hu people are vulgar, how can they line the princess's mind?" If in the future, if you can lead an army by yourself and defend the important passes of the famous city, will the princess be willing to come to help with Wen Yue? Praise will be provided to the princess with national etiquette. ”

He didn't mention the fact that he wanted to run away—because it wasn't clear what Pei had in mind—only that if he could lead an army by himself, what would it be, and that he would support Pei "with national etiquette". What does this mean? If in the Hu Han Kingdom, Pei's is just an ordinary woman's ear, what kind of resources can he give? Only when he returned to the Jin Dynasty and the Pei family was honored as a princess, could he talk about what kind of "national etiquette" he flattered. As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhengchang's heart was revealed.

But his words did not fall into place, and he was not even afraid to confront people face to face - she was my late princess after all, and I planned to support her, who was in the way? "National etiquette" Yunyun, naturally refers to the homeland, I just surrendered, I am not familiar with the etiquette of the Han Kingdom, so naturally I have to talk about the etiquette of the homeland - how can it be deeply woven and dirty and innocent!

But Pei Shi was very smart, and when he heard this, he was immediately startled, and hurriedly warned Wang Zan in a low voice: "Zhengchang, 'don't go out of the house, no blame'." She is quoting the hexagram of the ninth hexagram of the first hexagram of the "Zhou Yi", but the original intention is not here, but she wants to extend the explanation of this sentence in the "Dictionaries" made by the ancients under the name of Confucius - "Zi said: 'Where chaos is born, words are ordered. If the king is not secret, he will lose his minister, if he is not secret, he will lose his life, and if he is not secret, he will be harmed. It is a gentleman's prudence and not out. You can be cautious about what you say and do, I'm not safe here, I have to guard against the wall!
