Chapter 42, Two Marriages
Pei Wei was the first to drink, and Pei Cai suddenly woke up, and felt that the fog that was originally hidden in front of him was gone. The point of Pei Wei's remarks is the word "fight", there is no need to worry so much, since there is already a base area, there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, then go to war, expand the territory, and improve the prestige - the more the land is occupied, the stronger the soldiers are, and the more famous they are. Originally, I wanted to fight a piece of the world in the troubled times, expel Hu Lu and regain the glory of the Jin Room, it is not an easy thing, if you look forward and lose the opportunity, then what else can you do?!
Yes, he crossed over alone, and he also struggled alone in Hu Yingzhong - Pei's really couldn't help much - when he arrived in Jiangzuo, it was not so much that he borrowed the momentum of Zu Ti, but that Zu Ti was able to cross north because of his own plan. You can fight so many counties with your bare hands, how can you plant the land for a few years like a rural old man, and you can't let go of anything? The key is to worry about this base area, for fear that if you lead your troops far away, someone will take it away, or someone will damage it, but the reason why the base area is a base area is that it can expand outward at any time, otherwise it is just a cage that draws the ground as a prison!
Why should we care too much about the experience of the afterlife? Why do you want to wait for Liu and Shi to fight, and then go to Guanzhong and the Central Plains, and wait for Wang Dun to rebel, and then go to stab Jiangdong when the time comes? History has changed beyond recognition, if you are too attached to the old trajectory, what is the difference between doing things because of people? And because people may not be able to become a trend!
All kinds of thoughts came to my mind, and my face was cloudy. Pei Wei stopped talking, just looked at him silently, and after a long while, Pei Cai suddenly raised his eyebrows and patted his thigh: "Uncle has taught him a lesson." After the autumn harvest, he led his division north to attack Cao Wei! ”
Pei Wei frowned, and said in his heart My words have been made very clear, Qingxu is not a place to start a business, why do you still want to go to Qingzhou? I heard Pei Gai look up to the sky and laugh three times, and continued: "Cao Wei is a dog, but it is strong and strong, and it may not be easy to get down. I want to force him to return to the imperial court, and then hook up with Shao Sizu to protect the river, so that you can go west along the river and go straight to Luoyang and Chang'an! "I also want to fight in Guanzhong, and Xuzhou doesn't want to lose it, so I must push the forces all the way to the south bank of the Yellow River - it is much more difficult to cross the river than to cross the Huai - use the big river as a barrier, and then desperately rush to Guanzhong to rush to a wave!
Isn't it just a battle on the battlefield? I am also a person who has been on the battlefield now, and even won a battle, where can I still have cowardice and fear? Where my bamboo cane is pointing, not to mention invincible, it must also make Hu Lu remember my Pei Wenyue's name!
——————————
Pei Gai and Pei Wei kept talking about having dinner, and he asked Pei Wei to stay and help, and Pei Wei readily agreed, so he was immediately given the position of another driver.
The next day, Pei Gai summoned Pei Wei and Bian Yan together and told them in detail about his expedition to the west. Although there have already been letters to Huaiyin, but the text is not convenient for long speeches, specific details, still need oral narration, by the way to ask my right-hand man for advice, I did something wrong? Are there any omissions in doing so?
When it came to the rescue of Xun's daughter, Pei Wei couldn't help but sigh: "I don't want there to be such a woman in the world, but it's a pity that I was born by mistake, if I am a man, I will be handsome for a while!" Pei should take the opportunity to turn his face to Bian Yan and say, I have already said hello to Xun Song, and I want to hire Xun's daughter as my wife, just wait for Xun's party to arrive in Huaiyin, I hope you will go to talk and hire for me, how about it?
Bian Yan frowned slightly: "I heard that the envoy had hired the Du family daughter before, how could he break the contract and hire again?" ”
Pei should have already decided to get married, Pei Wei didn't know, but Bian Yan had already heard about it. As soon as he said this, Pei Gai's expression couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, Pei Wei asked carefully, and then smiled: "The Du clan's Jingzhaoshu clan, although there are Bohou, Wubo, and Yuankai III, they can't be compared with the Yingchuan Xun clan, how can they cling to my Pei clan's gate?" Absolutely not. "He is purely considering the interests of the family, the Du family's family is too low, the door is not right, the household is wrong, or the marriage of Pei and Xun, which is more suitable.
Bian Yan shook his head and said: "If you know that you can't be a couple, you shouldn't have agreed to it in the past, and if you have already agreed to it, how can you regret it?" Envoys, people do not stand without faith. "Bian Wangzhi is strict and square, and sometimes he gives people the illusion that he doesn't know how to be flexible, so he doesn't approve of Pei Cai's other hiring. Besides, the Jiyin Bian clan is also not a high-ranking family, and when he hears about this, he will inevitably feel some sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox.
Pei Gai explained: "It is not for the high door of the Xun family, so it is attached, for the Xun family girl not only saves my life, but also has the talent of Wen Ji and the virtue of Ban Ji, it is beloved, and it will be able to match me, it is a ......" Bian Yan interrupted his words: "Envoy, Xisi Chengzi rarely takes jade as a treasure, but takes incorruptibility as a treasure, and people call it at the time." Man who has nothing to love? If you love a woman today, you will lose your trust, then you will be greedy for money and goods in another day, and you will be lazy if you love your voice - make you think twice. ”
Pei Gai sighed and couldn't help but hang his head silently.
He also knew that even if his behavior did not violate the law of the country, or even if it was not too contrary to etiquette, it was not a glorious thing after all, so he was always hesitant on the way back, and he did not dare to write to Pei's family, asking her to help him refuse the Du family. After all, the marriage was originally given by Pei's help, and if you say that you will break the contract, you will break the contract, isn't this a slap in the face of Pei's? But how do you phrase it?
Therefore, Pei Gai really has nothing to say back to Bian Wangzhi's reproach and persuasion - although he still insists on the idea of marrying Xun's daughter, a lifelong event, and does not want to leave regrets, but what people say is very reasonable, what are you still arguing about?
Pei Wei looked at Pei Gai, and then at Bian Yan, and then smiled and said, "Why don't you send a letter to the Du family, make it clear about the Xun family, and make his daughter retire as a concubine?" ”
Bian Yan shook his head: "If you want to marry twice, it's okay, but how can you hire a concubine first?" And although the door of the Du family is not very high, his concubine is not willing to be a concubine, right? ”
Pei Wei thought for a while, and continued to smile and said, "Don't you hear about Jia Gonglu's matter?" ”
Bian Yan and Pei Gai didn't understand what he meant, and asked at the same time, "What's the matter with Jia Gonglu?" ”
So Pei Wei patiently gave them a literacy. Jia Gonglu is Jia Chong, and his original wife is the daughter of Li Feng, because Li Feng was killed by Sima Shi, and his daughter was implicated and exiled, so he was separated from Jia Chong; Later, Jia Chong married Guo Pei's daughter as his wife. When Sima Yan ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world, and the Li family was able to return to his hometown, the problem was complicated, because Jia Cheng did not explicitly abandon her at the beginning, and theoretically she was still Jia Chong's wife. So Sima Yan specially ordered Jia Chong to set up the left and right wives, and the two concubines were equally important.
Pei Wei said: "There is no shortage of precedents for such things in this dynasty. Wang Yu, the father of Wang Chang, the king of Dongping, was originally from Changsha, married a first wife, and then migrated to the Central Plains due to the turmoil in the south of the Yangtze River. When I arrived at Ping Wu, Wang Chang heard that his father's first wife had been mourned for a long time and was lonely, so he asked the king of Dongping to play and ask for a second mother. There is also Yingchuan Zheng Ziqun who once married Chen Sikong's daughter, and later due to the rebellion of Lu Bu, which led to dispersion, don't marry the villager Cai as his wife. After the chaos was settled, the Chen family returned, so he asked Xun Gong Zeng to play and asked for a second wife. Such things are not uncommon, and the imperial court does not prohibit ......"
On the one hand, Pei Wei felt that no matter from the perspective of family fame or actual interests, a marriage with the Xun family was much stronger than a marriage with the Du family, and he did not intend to go along with Bian Yan and persuade Pei to dispel the idea of hiring another person; On the other hand, when he first entered Pei Gai's scene, he also wanted to show his talent and help this nephew solve problems, so he put forward the precedent of "paying equal attention to the two sons".
However, Bian Yan still shook his head: "The helpless move in the troubled times cannot be compared with today's events......"
"Aren't these troubled times today?"
"Pei Jun, if the thieves block it, so that the Du family girl can't go north, and even miss the marriage date, or even the life and death are unknown, so that you don't hire the Xun family's daughter. However, now that she only needs a letter to go, the Du family girl can come to Huaiyin, what is the helplessness, and she must lose her trust? ! ”
Pei Wei said disappreciatively: "After all, I haven't married yet, if someone buys goods, even if he has made a decision, he can also break the contract, and he can no longer ask for a deposit - the dowry with the Du family will not be returned." ”
"The law is clear, and the need to marry is respected, and the following employment is correct - how can it be compared to a businessman's decision?"
"And then there's another sentence: 'Ignore personal covenants.'" It shows that although the appointment is more positive than the private contract, it is not enough compared to the formal marriage. ”
The two of them argued for a long time, and Pei should not interject at all beside him. Finally, when the two of them took a breath and drank saliva, he asked Bian Yan directly: "Bian Jun has a solution to my dilemma?" ”
Bian Yan shook his head: "The letter can't be lost, the contract can't be broken, and still marrying the Du family girl, what's the dilemma?" ”
"But I have agreed to Xun's ......"
"It's to make the king rude first, and go to Xun Jingyou to ask for guilt."
Pei Cai turned his head to look at Pei Wei, Pei Wei understood, so he immediately asked Bian Yan and said: "Bian Jun is talented, he must have a good plan - ask for advice, if you must marry the Xun family, what is the solution?" "I'm just making an analogy, if Pei Gai's thoughts can't be dispelled, then do you have any solution to it? Let's talk about it first.
Bian Yan looked at Pei Gai, and saw Pei Gai's face of chagrin, and at the same time looked at himself with expectant eyes. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh, knowing that he had made the monarch great, and he would not be able to persuade him to turn back after all, so he shook his head and said, "I will not do this matchmaker." Wen Du's daughter has been treating the king for several years, she is seventeen years old, her youth is ruined, and she is afraid that it will be difficult to remarry, so that the king will definitely refuse, wouldn't it harm her......"
When Pei Gai heard this, he couldn't help but suddenly hit a spirit, and then he realized that I was wrong!
The reason why he fell in love with Xun's daughter and didn't think about it carefully came up with the idea of breaking the contract and hiring another person, and he was busy making a verbal agreement with Xun Song, first, he knew that people in these years did not take the appointment too seriously, and it was common to break the contract, and secondly, the memory of later generations made him have a certain illusion.
"Waiting for several years" and "Wasted youth", Pei Cai did not consider this aspect from the beginning. After all, the other party is just a little girl who is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and she is not yet an adult, so why bother talking about it? Even if she can't marry herself, she has a lot of good people to ...... Her family chooses.
But this is in terms of the customs of later generations, in this year, sixteen or seventeen is a big girl, eighteen or nineteen is an old girl, if you refuse at the beginning, it will be just that, until now, and the girl is about to get married before breaking the contract, it is likely to affect the happiness of the girl for a lifetime!
Pei Gai couldn't help but be shocked - although he hadn't even seen the face of the Du family's daughter, but he really didn't want to harm an innocent girl because of his own reasons - he quickly left the table and shook Bian Yan deeply: "Bian Jun has learned a lesson, it is time to think less, but it is a big mistake. ”
Bian Yan was halfway through his words, Pei Gai stood up and apologized, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "In this way, has the Jun broken the idea of rehiring?" ”
Who thought that Pei Gai still shook his head: "My heart to marry the Xun family is very strong, and I can't change it, so I asked Bian Jun to have a best of both worlds." "I know what I did wrong, and I feel very guilty in my heart, but I don't plan to turn back - I am married to Xun's family!
Pei Wei smiled: "In this case, it is better to marry twice, neither breaking the contract nor breaking the promise." ”
Bian Yan glared: "Two marriages are also treachery!" ”
