Today, Pei Fu and his entourage can be described as a turning point, and the sudden appearance of the Kudi clan was really unexpected by Xue Shao. The wife of the main house, who is also a Confucian doctor, and her sister-in-law Xiao is gentle and virtuous, and her style of action is bold and vigorous, which really impresses Xue Shao.

Kudi is a Hu woman, with unrestrained and uninhibited blood flowing in her veins, and her soul is not bound by so many frames as a Central Plains woman. Of course, the most important thing is that the social atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty as a whole is relatively open and inclusive, and the constraints on women are far less strict than those of later dynasties, and most of the ideas of aristocratic women are more radical and assertive. This may also be the general environment and prerequisite for many strong political women represented by Wu Zetian to emerge in batches in this era.

The youngest son entrusted Gu and let Mrs. Pei enter the palace as a female official, and these two things were really not in Xue Shao's plan, and they could be called unexpected surprises.

Because life is short, human beings always want to pursue something eternal. Ancient and modern Chinese and foreign thought and scholarship have reached an unprecedented tacit understanding, all of which admit that what men pursue all their lives is nothing more than two things - sex and immortality.

In the Chinese cultural tradition, there are "three immortals" - meritorious service, morality, and speech. The pursuit of sex seems to be very well understood, and the saints say that eating sex is also a great desire for human beings, which is a biological instinct. But in fact, it has a deeper purpose - the inheritance of offspring.

The Father and the Son are a continuation of life. Pei Xingjian can entrust his three sons to Xue Shao, which means that he will definitely teach what he has learned all his life and spare no effort to help Xue Shao, hoping that Xue Shao will be stronger and better in the future.

Because Xue Shao's powerful ability to keep his heirs alive will be conducive to achieving what Pei Xingjian has pursued all his life - immortality!

The weight of supporting orphans is far more unbreakable than the friendship between teachers and students!

Xue Shao didn't know if the Lu Dao Kudi clan knew these truths, but what she did today did indeed achieve this thing by mistake.

At this point, Xue Shao can rest assured that Pei Xingjian will finally support him; The Pei couple can also be relieved that they have found the best shade trees and shelters for their children.

At this point, the estrangement between Xue Shao and Pei Xingjian does not exist at all.

The two talked for a long time, from ancient and modern literature and history to the current politics of the Tang Dynasty, from military affairs and the art of war to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, sometimes passionate and generous, sometimes laughing and happy, one old and one young have the same feeling of seeing each other and hating each other.

Pei Xingjian's profound knowledge made Xue Shao very amazed. The world only knows that he is a capable minister and a handsome man, and he is known to be outstanding in calligraphy, proficient in astronomy, familiar with geography, and knows the art of Qimen Dunjia and understands the study of yin and yang, but he does not know that he has deep attainments in fencing, archery, quyi, appreciation and even cooking. In addition, he has been operating in the Western Regions for many years, and is well aware of the culture and history of foreign Zhuhu. He can speak many dialects of the Tibetan and Turkic ethnic groups, read the original Buddhist scriptures of Tianzhu, play the Persian gonghou harp, and even instructed his wife how to dance the Hu Xuan Zhezhi dance and how to sing the folk songs of the Tang Jiangnan!

Some people are born destined to be extraordinary. The accumulation of his life experience is itself a treasure house of national culture and human wisdom. His demise and departure are destined to be a loss of culture and wisdom, and it can even be said to be a disaster - Pei Xingjian, the male of Confucianism, is such a person!

"Pei Gong, if I reach your age and can have half of your talent and achievements, this life will not be in vain!" Xue Shao said to Pei Xingjian.

Pei Xingjian just smiled, "Xue Zi should be the hero of the world, how can he use the old man and the poor Confucianism as a yardstick?" ”

Xue Shao smiled and touched his forehead, "It seems that I am already notorious." ”

Pei Xingjian laughed, "Dare to be so presumptuous in front of the Tianxia Sect, the old man can only describe it in one word!" ”

"What's that?"

"Cool!"

Xue Shao was both surprised and amused, "Pei Gong also said-cool? ”

Pei Xingjian said with a smile: "The big husband is in the world, but I want to be happy!" It's just that the longer you live, the more shackles and shackles you will carry. When he lived to Lao Pei's age, he could only lock himself in this turtle-like dilapidated courtyard house, and he didn't dare to see the light of day. Madame is right, the longer the old man lives, the more timid he becomes. The youthful frivolity and enthusiasm of the past can no longer be experienced. Don't say that you are presumptuous in front of the princess like Gongzi, but every word you say must be considered before and after lest you make a mistake. Therefore, the sentence 'Xue Zi should be the hero of the world' can be called - Dashuang! ”

Xue Shaoha smiled, "Pei Gong, what a person with a temperament!" ”

"Any man who can go to the field is a man of temperament." Pei Xingjian said in a sonorous voice, "When you see thousands of miles of rivers and mountains spread out under your feet, thousands of troops and horses galloping and roaring, bleeding thousands of miles in a thought, once becoming a king and defeating a king, and the rise and fall of a century-old clan and country...... Even if he is born crippled and sick, as long as he goes to the field, he will stand up his backbone, burn his blood, and roar - a man, a man, born to fight, and die to fight! ”

"Born to fight, to die to fight!" Xue Shao took a deep breath...... The blood of a soldier who had been dormant in his heart for a long time was almost ignited to boiling by Pei Xingjian's words!

The hero of Confucianism, his personality charm and spiritual appeal are really incomparable!

"The old man wants to rest with his son today!" Pei Xingjian slapped Xue Shao's shoulder, and his old eyes were shining, "Childe, you won't really quit drinking, right?" ”

Xue Shao smiled, "Xue is really not a drinker usually. But if it is the hero wine given by Pei Gong - sacrifice your life to accompany you! ”

"Madame, prepare for the feast! - Dig up the wine! ”

Pei Xingjian is an old man talking about juvenile madness today, he pulled up his sleeves and ran to the kiln with a shovel, and dug up the soil with his own hands. Xue Shao wanted to help, but he refused.

After digging for a long time, Pei Xingjian was sweating profusely and panting, and dug out a few jars of old wine from the kiln.

"Master Xue, this wine is older than my wife's age, and the old man has buried them for almost forty years!" Pei Xingjian patted the wine jar and said, "When the old man's wife Lu gave birth to a daughter, the old man's wife. On that day, the old man personally buried sixteen jars of wine here. It's a pity that the old man's daughter didn't live to the day she got married. These wines have always been buried here! ”

Xue Shao bowed his hand, "Pei Gong is so generous, how can Xue Shao be embarrassed?" ”

Pei Xingjian smiled and pushed a whole jar of wine in front of Xue Shao, "It's up to you, drink it all!" ”

"Good!"

Pei Xingjian didn't forget that Xue Shao also had a personal entourage who came with him, so he also gave Wu Ming a jar of wine. Wu Mingke is a big drunkard who never leaves his body, and a jar of forty-year-old wine is more expensive than a thousand gold for him!

Wine is a rare good wine in the world, there are fewer cups of wine for a thousand confidants, Pei Xingjian was drunk, and when Xue Shao left, he was already unconscious and overturned in bed. After all, Xue Shao is young and strong, and he has some internal kung fu foundation, although he walks a little shaky, but he is generally sober.

When you are half-drunk, your mind may think differently than usual. Some problems that are not easy to think about and difficult to figure out can be quite clear after drinking.

At this moment, Xue Shao was thinking that today Pei Fu and his entourage could reach a tacit understanding with Pei Xingjian to eliminate the barrier, which seemed to be accidental, but in fact it was inevitable.

Because there is a big invisible hand that pushes hard behind the back.

This person is - Wu Zetian!

The murder weapon of the soldier will not be subject to the life of the king outside...... On the other hand, so many armies were taken out of the city by the generals, how could the king's heart be at peace?

Whenever Pei Xingjian led the troops outside, the second saint was always frightened and uneasy, the last Northern Expedition was called back before the battle was finished, and after returning to the dynasty, instead of worshipping on the contrary, he relieved his military power and put it on hold. In the final analysis, the second sage was not at ease with Pei Xingjian and had to be entrusted with it, both wanting to win over him and restraining him.

The emperor's mind has always been like this.

Now Pei Xingjian is willing to send his wife to the palace as a female official, which is to make peace with the queen of heaven, but the deeper and greater intention is to keep her as a hostage.

The famous generals who have done this throughout the ages cannot be enumerated. Once you go on the expedition, it is better to take your family members as hostages than to be secretly watched, detained, or constrained by suspicion!

Judging from the relationship between Pei Xingjian and Kudi's husband and wife, Kudi's is not the kind of good girl who marries a chicken and a dog and a dog, she is very thoughtful and courageous, Pei Xingjian not only spoils her, but may also treat her as an important "internal assistant staff".

Wu Zetian is also a woman, she started by blowing the pillow wind, she understands better than anyone how powerful the pillow wind blows, especially the pillow wind blown by a young wife who is young and prosperous against an old husband who is old and decrepit, will be more effective.

Because the old man always inevitably feels guilty about his young wife, he is easy to spoil her when she is asked. Once such a pillow is blown by the wind, even a hundred steels can be turned into finger wrapping.

So the amazing Pei Xingjian embraced the inadequate, and when he was about to die, out of consideration for the future fate of his young wife and young son, he finally made a compromise: he agreed to Mrs. Pei's "close diplomacy", which is equivalent to agreeing to leave Mrs. Pei as a hostage in the palace, and more importantly, he agreed to give his three sons to Xue Shao!

The Kudi clan so vigorously promoted and promoted Pei Xue's "alliance", of course, because of her "good girlfriend" Wu Zetian's hint or instruction or acquiescence - if Wu Zetian is not optimistic about Xue Shao, how can Xue Shao protect his Pei family's bloodline in the future?

So in other words, Pei Xingjian's entrustment to Xue Shao is actually equivalent to entrusting the orphan to Wu Zetian and entrusting the orphan to the two saints, and Xue Shao is just a "project manager" who is specifically responsible for the implementation.

With this entrustment, the second saint should be able to rest assured that Pei Xingjian will lead the troops to the expedition in the future, and Pei Xingjian, who is leading the troops outside, will not have so many constraints and scruples.

Xue Shao was thinking, Pei Xingjian was very unrestrained in his "chatting about juvenile madness" today, I don't know if Lu Dao was out of a kind of calmness of great release, or out of a kind of helplessness of a big compromise, or both?

When he staggered out of the gate of Pei's house, Xue Shao glanced back at the Kudi clan who was standing under the eaves of the main hall, bowing to him from a distance, and sighed in his heart: This woman is by no means an ordinary person!

Not to mention how radical and decisive her character is, her political consciousness is definitely extraordinary. Over the years, Pei Xingjian has promoted so many famous ministers and generals, and the Pei family has gained a lot of power, and the Kudi clan did not go to them to help Gu but only found a Xue Shao who was an official with six grades and a weak crown in his age, which may have hints or fuels from Wu Zetian, but if this thing is really done, it has to be the Pei family themselves who have great courage to make up their minds to make a big gamble - just when Pei Xingjian was still hesitant to suffer from gains and losses, the Kudi clan quickly cut through the mess and did it!

Things are gathered by like, and people are grouped.

This Kudi's style of acting is very similar to Wu Zetian!.
