Zhiqu Liuyi came to Pei Gai to listen to the story for several nights, and this night he was not willing to say goodbye until the middle of the moon, Pei Gai yawned and was about to go to wash and sleep, but Yun'er came to pass the word, saying that Pei had summoned him to see him.

Pei Cai hurriedly straightened his clothes, walked into the main room, and asked, "It's late at night, why is my aunt still restless?" What are the teachings of summoning a nephew? ”

Pei Shi sat upright on the seat, and asked in a deep voice: "Wen Yue, you have been telling the story of the previous dynasty with that general Hu for the past few days...... "Pei Gaixin said that we talk about books behind closed doors, do you know the content?" You sent Yun'er to eavesdrop on the outside—"Do you want to trap him so that he can let us escape?" ”

Pei Gai shook his head with a wry smile: "Definitely." He is Hu, I am Chinese, not my race, his heart must be different, how can he be co-opted? He knelt down, approached Pei's on his knees, and said in a low voice: "Please also ask my aunt not to be impatient." Xuchang is thousands of miles away from Jiangdong, and there are occasional horsemen and bandits, even if you escape, you may not be able to reach it easily. Besides, I am newly attached, the Hu people still don't believe me, and the surveillance must be strict, once the escape fails, I am afraid that there will be no chance to ......"

"When?"

"I once said to Zhang Bin, saying that Shi Le wants to build a foundation and should take Hebei, but Wang Mi is in Qing and Xu, if he can't eradicate it, Shi Leyan dares to cross the river with confidence? And when Shile returned, his nephew advised him to go east and fight with Wang Mi, and then it would be a little closer to Jiangdong. The nephew has been talking to General Hu for the past few days, in order to find out the inside story of Hu Jun, so that he can learn from it in the future. ”

Although Pei Shi is smart, he doesn't understand the general trend of the world after all, and he doesn't know if Pei should be perfunctory to her, so he can only nod his head as if he understands: "In this case, I won't ask more, and I will be careful about it." Hu Ying can't live for a long time, but he can't take risks lightly - his uncle only has two sons of your brothers, and now the Hu army is besieging Luoyang, but I'm afraid that your brother will be inevitable, if you have another mistake, how can it be good? As he spoke, he turned his head slightly, and tears could not help but fall from his cheeks.

Pei Gaixin said that although I don't remember the relevant history very clearly, it is estimated that Pei Song did not escape to Jiangdong, if he had not surrendered to Hu, he would have been martyred, or he did not know where he fled and where he died. Because the Hedong Pei family is also a first-class family in the Western Jin Dynasty, in a sense, it is more noble than Wang and Xie Zhi, but in the end, only Wang and Xie are the ones who control the political situation in Jiangdong, but there is no one surnamed Pei...... Pei Song is the main branch of the Pei family, and the son of the famous minister Pei Song, if he can really escape to Jiangdong, it is impossible to be silent, and the small waves can't stir up a flower, at least there will be a record in the history books.

However, when searching for memories, the closer people are, the more fragmented and unsystematic the memories are, and he really can't really treat Pei Song as a close relative. Seeing Pei's expression at the moment, he had to cover his face with his sleeves and pretend to be sad: "If my brother is here, I will not let my aunt suffer from this danger!" ”

In fact, in his impression, Pei Song is a mediocre bureaucrat, at most a little more mature than the original Pei - after all, the age is there - he can't count on it at all!

After saying goodbye to Concubine Pei, Pei should go back to the room, fall asleep, and wake up, the day is already three. After freshening up, he walked out of the house, but saw that there were six or seven large bluestones standing in the middle of the good courtyard, and the smallest one was more than a foot square. When he saw a young servant sweeping the floor with a broom, he pointed to the stones and asked, "What is this?" ”

The servant hurriedly put down the broom and bowed closely: "Report to the head of the family, this is the general sent someone to move here, saying that the master of the family is invited to carry the hand on his shoulders every day, and he will be able to strengthen his body." ”

Pei should be a little crying and laughing, and said in his heart I pushed it for several nights, and you finally moved here...... This is what you call a stone lock? I don't even have a handlebar, so how can I hold it for exercise? At that moment, I rolled up my sleeves and stepped forward to try to move a bluestone, and after working hard for a long time, it will leave the ground - it is estimated that it will not exceed one millimeter. He straightened up and waved his hand while panting: "That's it, move to the corner." "This is placed in the middle of the yard, and those who come in and out will definitely kick it accidentally, and the phalanges will be unlucky at that time.

The servant agreed, walked over and easily picked up the bluestone, and then, as if he was not satisfied, stacked the stone on top of another slightly larger bluestone...... He stacked three pieces in a row, and only then did he exert his strength, and with a "hey" sound, he picked up and walked briskly to the side of the courtyard.

Pei should have been dumbfounded...... You told me that this was a slave who could easily be bought for money because there was no work in the city? Jian Zhifu, if you lie, you can also make a draft first, okay? Although I had long guessed that the two young servants were not fuel-efficient lamps, I didn't expect that this one would be so powerful, if you were in the army, you would be a personal soldier and a healthy soldier, and you would be willing to send it to monitor me!

There are a total of six bluestones, of different sizes, and Pei Gai tried to move the smallest one just now, but it failed shamefully...... But the servant had only made two trips, and then he had removed all six stones to the corner of the courtyard. Pei Gai couldn't help but ask him, "What's your name?" "I must have reported my name when Jian Dao sent it, but Pei Cai didn't take it to heart at that time.

The servant crossed his hands and replied respectfully, "Villain Pei Wen." ”

In these years, slaves are often used to following the master's surname, so this guy is called Pei Wen, Pei Cai immediately asked again, what is your original surname? Pei Wen replied honestly: "The villain's original surname was Sun. ”

Grandchild...... I rely on Sun Wen! Pei Gai almost didn't have a mouthful of old blood spurting out of the old way - "Long Yang Jiu Yang, it turns out that you are the 'Iron Fist Invincible' Sun Yat-sen, right?!" It was not easy to suppress the desire to complain, he looked the other party up and down a few times, and coughed lightly before he could open his mouth again: "You have great strength, can you read and write?" ”

"The villain is illiterate."

"If you are illiterate, how can you write well? It's still called Sun Wu...... "It's not appropriate to think about it," seeing that you are as healthy as a bear, it is better to change your name to Xiong and call it Pei Xiong. ”

Sun Wen...... From then on, he was called Pei Xiong, and hurriedly made another gesture: "Thank you for the name given by the master." ”

"Listen to your accent, but not like a local?" Pei Gai stretched out his hand and pointed, Pei Xiong hurriedly brought the Hu bed over and unfolded it in front of him - recently Pei Gai was always in the courtyard, sitting on the Hu bed and looking at the sky, this one was to sort out his thoughts, and the other was because he was really not used to the kneeling customs of these years, although the Hu bed was short, he could relax his calves - and then replied: "The villain's hometown is in Fan Yangguo, seven years ago, in order to escape the conscription, he followed his uncle all the way south, and finally settled in Xuchang. My uncle passed away last month, so I sold myself into slavery to bury my uncle. ”

Pei Caixin said that he sold his body to bury his relatives, this section is too old-fashioned, who will believe you! Slowly bent his knees, sat down on the Hu bed, and continued to ask Pei Xiong: "You are now a slave of my family, and you have the strength, if I am in danger, can you give up your life to protect me?" ”

Pei Xiong replied bluntly: "The villain can't beat General Zhi." ”

Pei Caixin said I didn't let you go to fight Qu Liu...... Oh, you think I want to entrap you, and then find a chance to escape, so make this statement in advance, this guy looks like a human being, and really doesn't have any heart-"Why did I order you to fight General Zhi?" But if others deceive me, will you obey the order to fight? ”

"Since the villain is a slave of the Pei family, he should obey the master's orders."

While he was talking, he suddenly heard the sound of a knock on the door. The old servant, who had been leaning against the corner and napping, stood up with a stir, but when he looked at the door, he turned his head to look at his master, but he did not dare to come forward in a trembling voice...... The last time someone knocked on the door like this, it was the first time that Zhi Qu Liu "visited", the old servant hurried over, and just pulled the door latch, he was kicked over by Zhi Qu Liu, and even twisted his waist for several days, and he was not good at this time. Who is this? You won't kick the door again, will you?

Pei Gai still sat upright on the Hu bed and did not move, and then glanced up at Pei Xiong. Pei Xiong wasn't too stupid, he immediately understood, so he asked loudly at the top of his voice, "Who knocked on the door?" His voice was really not small, Pei should be close, he felt his head "buzz", and hurriedly turned sideways and covered his ears...... The sound of slapping outside the door also stopped abruptly, and then paused for a short time before someone replied, "Is Pei supposed to be there?" Qu Lu Shi specially came to visit you. ”

When Pei Gai heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes - come up and call him by his name, and call him "you", what kind of attitude do you have? Then you don't know what you mean. He heard Jian Dao mention a person surnamed Qu, and he could roughly guess who it was.

——————————

The Han Kingdom had just been established, and the code system was still very loose. It stands to reason that Liu Yuanhai is not an uneducated person, but he did not pay attention to the establishment of official positions at all, and the parallel systems of Han and Hungary made it even more confusing. The situation of the various armies under his command is also similar to this, for example, in the Shile army, the generals at all levels are strict and have clear powers, but they are very simple to call and can be called "generals".

On the contrary, the clerical system was all crammed into the "gentleman's camp", except for one Zhang Bin, who was appointed as "Zuo Changshi" and "Gentleman's Camp Governor", no one else had a name. However, the more Chinese scholars they are, the more they pay attention to the order of rank, so they simply draw up their own functions, and it is good to look at them with an empty title, and they have more face when they are called.

But it stands to reason that Shi Le's status can be compared to the Jin Dynasty's second-rank generals, and in the shogunate, there should be one Changshi and Sima each, with a thousand stones, and then the main book, Gong Cao, and the subordinate governor, and then the record, each Cao, the assassin, and the governor of the account. However, Shi Le only appointed two long histories - the right long history is Diao Ying - but the rest of the positions were not set up, so Xu Guang and Cheng Yao simply called themselves Sima, and even Qu Bin and Qu Mofeng were mixed with the false title of record - as for the simple way to be complex, it was an ordinary scrivener.

This time, Qu Bin was ordered by Sima Chengyao to call Pei Gai, and as soon as he arrived at the place, he ordered someone to knock on the door, and when the door opened, he held his chest up, his neck was stalked, his hands were behind his back, and he swaggered inside. As a result, Pei Gai not only did not come to greet him, but sat on the bed without moving, and looked up at the sky, as if he hadn't seen anyone come in at all.

In fact, this guy has just entered the door, and Pei should have seen his appearance clearly. This man was born with a good skin, in his thirties, broad shoulders and long body, although slightly thin, but quite clear, a long beard fluttering on his chest, black without a little variegation. But after glancing at this one, Pei Cai deliberately removed his eyes.

It's not the first time Qu Bin has seen Pei Gai, because when he said goodbye to Shile that day, as soon as Pei Gai said the word "lord", all the eyes of the big guys glanced at him, and he could naturally see the demeanor - Qu Bin was in the crowd, but Pei Gai had no reason to notice him alone. This goodbye, Pei Gai was not the flattering look in his memory (in fact, it was imagined), but with a look of arrogance, he actually eliminated the shelf that Qu Bin had previously held up invisibly - as if he stood out from the crowd and respected himself, but in a blink of an eye he saw a phoenix......

Of course, this is not to say that Pei Gai is much more beautiful than Qu Bin, he just takes advantage of his youth. The key is that Qu Bin's pride is false, although Pei Gai is also purely a performance, after all, he used to be a pampered noble son, in Qu Bin's view, it is brought out of the mother's womb, and the incomparable superiority revealed from the bones...... So his momentum was immediately suppressed.

Although Qu Bin was annoyed in his heart, he couldn't help it, and he didn't dare to call him by his name anymore, so he had to arch his hand slightly: "Pei Lang ......" Pei Gai rolled his eyes: "The word 'Pei Lang' can also be called?" ”
