The night is like ink.

Xue Shao walked out of Xue Yuanchao's Prime Minister's Mansion, with a rare expression of solemnity and coldness.

Pifu was angry and blood splattered, no one in this world would be willing to bear the contempt and ridicule of others, and Xue Shao was no exception. It's just that everyone behaves differently and vents differently.

Before Xue Shao entered the army in his previous life, he was less than twenty years old, like a tiger cub that had just grown its claws, and when it encountered something unpleasant, he would be angry and fight back. Later, after joining the army, he was subject to the discipline and various education of the army, especially after entering the special unit, he experienced a lot of things, he learned to control his emotions, and gradually became moody.

The eagle stands like sleep, and the tiger walks like a disease, these eight words have gradually integrated into his character.

But eagles don't always get drowsy, and tigers can't always look sick.

So today, in front of Xue Yuanchao, the eagle opened his sharp eyes, and the tiger roared as it descended the mountain.

Xue Shao felt that only an "opponent" of Xue Yuanchao's level was worthy of letting him show his true sharpness.

Yes, sharp.

There is a saying that don't bully young people into poverty.

A man, especially a young man, can have no money, no power, and nothing, but he can't lose his sharpness!

Seeing Xue Shao coming out, the moon slave hurriedly greeted him, "Childe, how is it?" ”

"Very good." Xue Shao smiled indifferently, "The matter is all dealt with, let's go home!" ”

"Childe, where's your sticker?" Yuenu is obviously paying special attention to this "heirloom" of the Xue family.

"I'm temporarily storing it with Xue Yuanchao. It doesn't matter, he'll come back to fetch it someday. Xue Shao turned over and got on the horse, "Let's go!" ”

“…… Be! Yue Nu didn't dare to ask any more, so she obediently rode on her horse and returned home with Xue Shao.

In Xue Yuanchao's mansion, in the living room of the main hall.

The father and son looked at the scrap of paper on the ground on the left, and the sticker left by Xue Shao on the right, and were speechless for a long time.

"Xue Zi should be the hero of the world." Xue Yuanchao groaned softly, his tone was calm, not angry or angry.

"Father, what is going on now?" Xue Yao asked in a low voice, "We obviously have offended him." ”

"As a doctor in the imperial court, shouldn't even the emperor be afraid of offending, but are you still afraid of offending him?" Xue Yuanchao said.

Xue Yao smiled bitterly, "Father, this matter, that matter." Xue Shao came with courtesy and intended to make friends, but we refused to be thousands of miles away, and we were not in line with etiquette. After all, they are of the same clan and clan, and there is no enmity in the past, and the child can't help but feel ashamed. ”

Xue Yuanchao remained silent noncommittally, his son himself knew that Xue Yao was loyal and honest and did not have too many scheming, and he was also a righteous doctor above the court, and his behavior and position have always maintained strict neutrality. He didn't understand much about some of the subtleties above the court; Or, even if he knew, he would never get involved in the depths.

Xue Yuanchao has been in the court of killing every step for so many years, and he has long been as careful as he has seen and understood. Xue Shao, who had never communicated with each other, came to visit rashly, on the surface, it seemed to be just a very ordinary visit between people from the same clan, but how could Xue Yuanchao not smell the hidden meaning and sinister taste?

However, even if he knew that Xue Shao might cause a catastrophe if he offended Xue Shao, Xue Yuanchao would definitely refuse to be thousands of miles away.

Because in Xue Yuanchao's opinion, there are always some things in this world that are more precious than the black yarn on the top and even the head on the neck.

For example, the integrity of being a scholar; Another example, the Li Tang Dragon Flag hanging high in my heart!

If just because Xue Shao is going to marry the most doting princess of the Empress Wu and become today's concubine, he will be sycophant and sincere to him in every way, then Xue Yuanchao will not be the Xue Yuanchao who is respected by the world's scholars as the "Tianxia Sect".

"Frame this piece and hang it on the front wall of the old man's study." Xue Yuanchao handed the note left by Xue Shao to his son.

"Huh?" Xue Yao looked at his father in amazement, "Father, Xue Shao is so rude and provocative, you are ......"

"If the old man's mind can't even accommodate a weak crown madman, how can he live in the phase and accommodate all things in the world of the Tang Dynasty?" Xue Yuanchao smiled indifferently disapprehantly, his smile was very playful, "I have heard the nickname of Lantian Gongzi for a long time, and he is famous in the clan for not guarding the door and not governing the family." The old man was once deeply ashamed. But when I saw it today, I thought that this person was interesting. ”

"Yes...... Interesting? Xue Yao's tone has become weird, what is wrong with his father, who has always been selfless and strict, today, he has been kidnapped by someone, he is so angry that he is about to vomit blood, and he is still talking and laughing like this, and he praises others in turn?

"Yao'er, can you tear this "Yu Mo Lan Pavilion Preface?" Xue Yuanchao asked suddenly.

"No way!" Xue Yao looked at the piece of shredded paper on the ground, and he was heartbroken.

"Neither can I be a father." Xue Yuanchao stroked his beard lightly, "The Preface to the Yu Orchid Pavilion is so precious, but Xue Shao regards it as idle. That can only prove that he is not here, and he doesn't put a pair of "Yu Imitation Lanting Preface" in his eyes at all. His ambitions may be really outstanding. ”

"Huh?" Xue Yao was stunned again, is "loser" also extraordinary?

"Do you dare to fight against my will and fight with me?" Xue Yuanchao said again.

"Don't dare to kill the child!" Xue Yao hurriedly lowered his head.

"In the Xue family, has there ever been such a person?"

"Never!"

"Now there are hundreds of civil and military officials in the court, and there are countless scholars in the academy, have you ever seen such a person?"

"Nope!"

"This may be another outstanding feature of Xue Shao." Xue Yuanchao turned his head to look at the seven words, "Xue Zi should be the hero of the world, if this post is really more valuable than "Yu Mo Lan Pavilion Preface" within twenty years, if it is not framed and collected, wouldn't it be a pity?" ”

"Father, this is just a rebellious statement of anger after Xue Shao was humiliated, how can it be taken seriously?" Xue Yao said busily.

"Then it's even more necessary to frame it, so that I can collect it." Xue Yuanchao stroked his beard lightly and smiled, "Everyone in the world should take responsibility for their every word and deed. If Xue Shao can't do it, then this sticker will be a lifelong shame! Today's presumptuous and rude in front of the old man, he will return it to himself a hundred times in the future! ”

"Ugh! ......" Xue Yao seems to understand now, his father's heart and foresight are definitely not something he can measure and figure out.

"Shame on the child!"

"Yao'er, if you talk about academic articles, you don't lose to others. If you are wise-minded, you should be ashamed. Xue Yuanchao said politely, "With your qualifications and temperament, it's no problem to keep the door to the door, and you are good at promoting articles, but if you can make this five-grade righteous doctor a good death, you will be satisfied with your father." ”

"The child's qualifications are blunt, and he has disappointed his father!" Xue Yao knelt down in shame and pressed his forehead to the ground.

"Clean up those shredded papers, find a master craftsman to repair and frame them, and you will personally take them and return them to Xue Shao. Remember, don't mention these words that the old man just said to you. Xue Yuanchao said suddenly.

"Huh?" Xue Yao was surprised several times today, what did his father mean by this? …… I—Am I really stupid enough to guess what his old man is thinking?

"Go ahead, just do it!" Xue Yuanchao didn't say anything more, and walked away.

"The child obeys! …… Greetings to my father! ”

……

Xue Shao returned home and found that Li Xianyuan was no longer there. There is no need to guess, the drunken man who has been holding back for a long time has just had money, and he must have gone to Pingkangfang to look for flowers and ask willows.

The next few days are going to be very busy, with a lot to do. Xue Shao made a plan, and tomorrow he will visit Xue Kegou, the head of the household.

Compared with Xue Yuanchao, the secretary of the current dynasty, Xue Kegou's weight is much lighter. Of course, that also depends on who you compare yourself to.

In many cases, the official rank of Datang does not represent the true gold content of the official's strength, and the "ministry" received is the key. The official rank of the household servant is under the fourth rank, and the rank is not particularly high, but the power in his hand is not small - equivalent to the current vice minister of finance.

According to the analysis of the information learned from Li Xianyuan, Xue Kegou, a little old man with a gentle temperament, is much easier to get along with than Xue Yuanchao, the Tianxia Sect. As for whether you can be invited to attend the roasting tail feast, that's another story.

Getting to know Pei Xingjian is the most important thing in Xue Shao's plan.

For him, Xue Shao was very impressed. The reason is simple, history calls Pei Xingjian "the hero of Confucian generals", the third generation of the Tang Dynasty military god Li Jing, and the last heir. Previously, as a professional soldier and under the influence of An Xiaorou, it was difficult for Xue Shao not to be interested in him.

Xue Shao carefully recalled Pei Xingjian's life, which is really legendary. If you use it directly to write a book and make a movie, you don't have to think about the storyline.

Pei Xingjian was born in Hedong, a famous family in the Sanjin Dynasty, and heard about Pei's family. Nowadays, "Xue Peiliu" is known as the three surnames in Hedong, and is also known as the four surnames in Guanzhong of "Xue Wei Peiliu". No matter how it is compared, the surname Pei is an out-and-out wealthy family in the world.

Pei Xingjian's father is Pei Renji, a big celebrity at the turn of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and his brother Pei Xingyan is a super fierce general known as the enemy of ten thousand people, which is the prototype of Pei Yuanqing, the third good man of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. But they were all killed by Wang Shichong, and the Pei family's Luoyang lineage was almost wiped out at that time.

Pei Xingjian grew up with a deep hatred of blood, and became a civil official of the Tang Dynasty when he was young, and his calligraphy was almost as famous as Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang. Soon he got acquainted with Li Jing's protégé Su Dingfang, and inherited Li Jing's art of war from him.

Originally, talents like Pei Xingjian should shine in this era, at least they can share the sun and moon with Li Tao. But his mouth was not strict, because he discussed the matter of Li Zhi's abolition of the queen with the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang, and was thrown to the frontier of the Western Regions, and he was gone for more than ten years. However, Pei Xingjian's magic is also here, he was demoted out of Chang'an to the frontier to eat sand in the six-grade "waste official", in office to do a very outstanding political performance, actually achieved the position of the three-grade Anxi protector, the head of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions, became a veritable feudal official!

Later, Pei Xingjian returned to the dynasty to serve as a servant of the Ministry of Officials, and came up with a new set of official selection and assessment system, which has been inherited and used by successive dynasties for more than 1,000 years, and can be called the originator of China's "human resource management"!

Ordinary people have done so many things in terms of political achievements and governance, and they can already be called a generation of famous ministers. But Pei Xingjian is not enjoyable enough - Li Jing's art of war cannot be learned in vain!

Four years ago, there was a rebellion in the Western Regions, and Pei Xingjian happened to pass by here as an envoy and revisited the old place. As soon as he heard the news, Pei Xingjian, who was alone, recruited more than 1,000 young people to start a family on the spot, and invited a group of trusted chiefs of the Western Regions tribes to bring troops to the appointment in the name of hunting, and soon pulled up a team of more than 20,000 people. He used the trickery to quickly take down the rebel leader, and then used the thief's command to trick the leaders of the other rebel tribes and take them down together. The remaining few small trash fish, looking at the wind.

This is simply a typical example and pioneer of modern special operations - decapitation operations!

Originally, he was a lonely man who passed by from the Western Regions to make soy sauce, and Pei Xingjian silently put down a great rebellion of the alien race that was about to invade the Western Regions and ruin half of the Tang Dynasty.

History, sometimes indeed, is more exaggerated and obscene than novels and movies.

Since then, the Confucian general's male Pei Xingjian has been powerful and famous.

In Xue Shao's view, if he wants to enter the road of martial arts, Pei Xingjian is undoubtedly the best "guide". Of course, such a high-end guide is not so easy to get.

First of all, it has to at least attract his attention.

So Xue Shao planned to give an extremely special gift to Pei Xingjian.
