On one of the most lush trees, a tall black figure was silently watching Yuan Jun's carriage approaching, and if Yu Chigong saw him from behind, he would recognize this person at a glance, it was the middle-aged man. ￡∝，

But his positive appearance has changed, no longer the middle-aged man with a full beard, but a young man with a resolute appearance, who is Pei Xingjian, the grandson of Pei Ju who relies on him very much.

Pei Xingjian's task is to capture Yuan Jun, although he doesn't know why he did it, but the order of the head of the family is to keep his word, and he must carry it out to the letter.

Pei Xingjian saw that the carriage had gradually entered the ambush circle, and as soon as he waved his hand, more than a dozen black shadows appeared on the wall, holding long swords in their hands, all eager to try, waiting for the carriage to come forward.

Just as the carriage drove into the shade of the largest tree, the worry in Yuan Jun's heart finally happened, several black-clothed people fell from the sky at the same time, and landed on the horses of the three attendants, only to hear three screams, the bodies of the three attendants fell to the ground, and then the coachman was also stabbed in the throat with a sword, turned over and fell off the carriage.

Inside the carriage, Yuan Jun also heard the screams and was taken aback, but he reacted very quickly, and resolutely pulled out his sword and stabbed a man in black who was about to pounce on the carriage, and the man in black twisted his body and jumped on the roof of the car.

On the wall, Pei Xingjian shouted in a low voice: "Immediately control the people in the carriage!" ”

Yuan Jun suddenly heard this voice, it was the middle-aged man who told him the secret, he was stunned for a moment, and outside the carriage, more than a dozen black-clothed people jumped off the wall and rushed towards the carriage.

But at this moment, more than a dozen cavalrymen rushed from behind, led by a large iron rod in his hand, and his figure was extremely majestic, it was Wei Chigong.

Wei Chigong took the lead in rushing to the side of the carriage, picked up the iron rod in his hand and smashed it hard, 'Smack! There was a loud bang. The windows were shattered, splinters of wood flew around, and a four-foot-wide hole appeared in the carriage.

Behind Yu Chigong was Zhang Xuan, who controlled the horse with his legs and leaned over to grab Yuan Jun who was huddled in the corner of the carriage.

"Yuan Gongzi, we are here to save you!"

Yuan Jun was just about to turn over and climb to the front row. Hearing Zhang Xuan's words, he was stunned for a moment, but at the moment he was stunned, Zhang Xuan grabbed him by the neck and grabbed him out of the carriage.

Yuan Jun reacted immediately, he felt remorse and hatred in his heart, and raised his sword to slash, but his arm was pinched by a hand like an iron pincer, and he screamed in pain. The sword fell to the ground.

It's just that between the rise and fall of the rabbit, more than a dozen cavalrymen came from behind and took away the prey that the man in black saw as he wanted to get his hands.

Seven or eight black-clothed people were startled, and rushed towards more than a dozen cavalrymen together, Wei Chigong swept away with an iron rod, and several black-clothed people couldn't dodge, and were beaten and flew out of a foot's distance, and blood sprayed wildly. The rest of the men in black were intimidated by the horseman's momentum and retreated.

Wei Chigong sneered. "I've already shown mercy to my subordinates, and if I don't know how to be interesting, don't blame me for breaking your heads."

"Wait for Hugh to go!"

Pei Xingjian jumped down from the tree, his target was not Wei Chigong, but Zhang Xuan, who was holding Yuan Jun, and the halberd in Pei Xingjian's hand was like a lightning bolt slashing towards Zhang Xuan.

Zhang Xuan held Yun Jun with his left hand. Pulled out his war knife and attacked Pei Xingjian's halberd, only to listen to 'Dang! With a stabbing sound, Pei Xingjian was bounced away by a powerful force, and his back hit the wall of the workshop and rolled to the ground.

Zhang Xuan's war horse also took a few steps back. He has seen Pei Xingjian's appearance clearly, and he looks very much like Pei Xingyan, and he is estimated to be Pei Xingyan's brother based on his age.

Zhang Xuan smiled, "You should learn from Brother Ling." ”

He urged the horse to shout: "Let's go!" ”

A dozen horsemen galloped to another path to the south, and quickly disappeared.

Pei Xingjian slowly stood up from the ground, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stared blankly at the cavalry running away, Pei Xingjian was so hateful that he smashed his fist on the carriage, and they made wedding dresses for nothing.

Although Pei Xingjian failed to snatch Yuan Jun, he still ordered his subordinates to quickly clean up the four corpses on the path, and even shoveled the blood stains on the ground, as if nothing had happened

In the room, Pei Xingjian knelt down on one knee to the head of the family, Pei Ju, and pleaded guilty, "My grandson is not effective and failed to catch Yuan Jun, please punish my grandfather." ”

Pei Ju's face did not show annoyance, but he looked a little regretful, and after a while, he asked, "Are you sure that the person who captured Yuan Jun is really the Sui army?" ”

"Sun Er can feel that their style of acting is indeed Sui Jun, it should not be pretending, and the person he is the leader seems to know Xing Yan."

"Alas!"

Pei Ju had already guessed who the other party was, and he sighed softly, "It's really a pity, I still lost in despising him." ”

"Otherwise, if my grandson goes to Li Hun Mansion, he will definitely be able to destroy the plan of Wuchuan Mansion."

Pei Ju shook his head, "If I want to sabotage the plan of Wuchuan Mansion, why should I send you to intercept Yuan Jun?" ”

Pei Xingjian scratched his head, his mind was confused, since the head of the family didn't want to destroy the plan of Wuchuan Mansion, why did he send himself to tell Yuan Jun about it.

Pei Ju sat down and said to him in a serious tone: "If I am not mistaken, it should be Zhang Xuan who robbed Yuan Jun, I believe that he and I have the same purpose, although this person is young, he already has the demeanor of a chess player, you have to learn from him." ”

"Yes! The grandson obeyed. ”

Pei Ju glanced at him and smiled: "You still can't figure out his intention to capture Yuan Jun?" ”

"Grandson is stupid!"

"Let me tell you this! Zhang Xuan's move will completely tear apart the Guanlong nobles, of course, this is also the purpose of me asking you to arrest Yuan Jun. ”

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and the housekeeper reported at the door: "Master Qiqi, General Zhang Xuan is asking to see you outside the gate of the mansion!" ”

Pei Ju was stunned for a moment, and then laughed slowly, "Interesting! It was really unexpected by the old man. ”

He immediately instructed: "Let Gongzi Xin go to meet General Zhang for me, invite him to the outer study, I will change my clothes, and I will be there immediately." ”

Pei Ju slowly smiled at Pei Xingjian, who was also stunned: "See, this is a chess master." ”

He turned around and walked towards his inner study, Pei Xingjian sighed slightly, he also had to admire Zhang Xuan's courage, the front foot snatched people, and the back foot came to the door, he felt that Zhang Xuan was young. But it's no longer on the same level as himself.

The two little girls were holding lanterns in front, Pei Ju changed into a loose Zen robe, and walked to the study outside in a hurry, he actually thought that Zhang Xuan would come, if Zhang Xuan was a smart person, he would not be his enemy. It's just that he didn't expect Jang Hyun to come so quickly.

Frankly speaking, Pei Ju is somewhat dissatisfied with Zhang Xuan in his heart, after all, Zhang Xuan has ruined his business twice, last time it was Li Shanheng, and this time it was Yuan Jun, dissatisfied is dissatisfied, but Pei Ju is a veteran of officialdom after all, he knows that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and the key is not to kill cattle. It's about how to turn the calf to your own use.

For example, now, Zhang Xuan actually took the initiative to come to the door to explain, which made Pei Ju see a glimmer of hope for collecting cattle.

In the outer study, Zhang Xuan was chatting with Pei Xin very happily, although Zhang Xuan met a group of famous children in Jixian County, and had a not very good impression of the famous children, but he gradually learned about the other side of the famous children.

For example, Cui Yuanhan, whom he met in Qinghe County, gave him extremely important information at a critical time. made him evacuate in time, and later hid Ah Yuan in the mansion. There is no coldness in Jixian at all.

There is also this Pei Xin in front of him, who is knowledgeable, knowledgeable, modest and low-key, and also makes Zhang Xuan feel that he has excellent cultivation, and it is no accident that these families can be inherited for a hundred years.

Then. Pei Xin suddenly stood up and saluted respectfully: "Grandfather! ”

As soon as Zhang Xuan turned around, he saw Pei Ju appear behind him at some point, looking at him with a smile on his face, Zhang Xuan felt a little ashamed in his heart. hurriedly got up and saluted, "Junior Zhang Xuan see Pei Shangshu!" ”

"You're welcome, please be seated!"

Pei Ju asked Zhang Xuan to sit down, he also sat down, and said to his grandson Pei Xin: "You can sit down too!" ”

"Yes!" Bae Shin respectfully sat down beside his grandfather.

Pei Ju let the maid serve tea again, and said with a smile: "How could General Zhang think of coming to me?" ”

"The juniors are here to ask Pei Shangshu for some knowledge."

"Teach me, please?"

Pei Ju smiled and shook his head, "I don't quite understand." ”

"The younger generation read what Han Feizi said yesterday, and he was deeply touched, but he didn't understand it very well"

"Oh? General Zhang is actually interested in Han Feizi, so you might as well talk about it. Pei Ju laughed.

"Han Feiziyun, the country is small but not humble, the strength is small but not afraid of the strong, rude and insulting the neighbors, greedy and clumsy friends, but also perish! The younger generation feels that it seems that Goguryeo has made this mistake, what does Pei Shangshu think? ”

Pei Ju immediately understood that this was Zhang Xuanlai apologizing to himself, where did he say Goguryeo, it was clearly himself.

Pei Ju's heart immediately felt a lot more comfortable, he liked this kind of subtlety, and he also liked Zhang Xuan's self-knowledge, and his son could be taught!

He glanced at Zhang Xuan and said slowly: "There are some things that the virtuous nephew understands in his heart, and I also understand in his heart, although there have been some misunderstandings between us, I believe that the virtuous nephew does not want these misunderstandings to occur, I am right!" ”

Zhang Xuan no longer talked about Han Feizi, he said sincerely: "Although I have always been very glad that my wish can be fulfilled, I know in my heart that without Pei Shangshu's tolerance, I would not be able to achieve my wish, and today, I can sit here and talk with Pei Shangshu, how can I not be grateful to Pei Shangshu's mind in my heart." ”

Pei Ju laughed, "You can be so honest, it also shows that you are a fair and honest person, how do you plan to deal with him, you should know who I am referring to." ”

"Back to Pei Gong, the junior came in a carriage, that person is in my carriage at this time, if Pei Gong needs it, I can hand him over to Pei Gong immediately."

Pei Ju was stunned, he couldn't have imagined that Zhang Xuan would actually bring Yuan Jun, which was completely unexpected by him.

Pei Ju stared at Zhang Xuan for a long time before slowly shaking his head and said, "I don't need him, I hope that my nephew will release him when the matter is over." ”

"Juniors obey orders!"

Pei Ju pondered for a long time and then asked, "What are the plans for the virtuous nephew in the future?" ”

Zhang Xuan bowed and said, "Back to Gong Pei, the juniors have decided to go to Zhang Xutuo's account." ”

"Not going to Guanzhong?"

Zhang Xuan shook his head decisively, "The juniors don't have this idea!" ”

"Really? It's going to be a big disappointment for someone! ”

Pei Ju and Zhang Xuan glanced at each other, and both of them laughed uncontrollably

Zhang Xuan said goodbye and left, Pei Ju stood alone in front of the window and pondered for a long time, at this time, Pei Xin came back after sending Zhang Xuan away, he slowly walked into the room, did not dare to disturb his grandfather's contemplation, and stood at the door with his hands down.

After a long time, Pei Ju glanced back at him, "He's gone?" ”

"Yes! His grandson had already sent him away. ”

As the head of the family, Pei Ju has always attached great importance to the cultivation of the younger generations of the family, but there are differences in intimacy and alienation, and many times it is difficult for him to achieve a bowl of water, such as Pei Xingjian and Pei Xin, one is the grandson of the clan, the other is his eldest grandson, and Pei Ju of course pays more attention to his eldest grandson.

He waved his hand, "You sit down, grandfather has something to say to you." ”

Pei Xin sat down, Pei Ju smiled gently: "Presumably you are confused about the conversation between me and Zhang Xuan, right?" ”

Pei Xin nodded, "But Sun Er feels like he's here to apologize." ”

"It's not enough to apologize, he is afraid of offending me and erecting a strong enemy, so he wants to redeem my dissatisfaction with him."

Pei Ju briefly told his grandson what happened recently, and finally sighed: "I was originally worried that he would be pulled over by Dou Qing, but he actually went to Shandong, which shows that Dou Qing did not succeed in wooing him, it can be seen that this person is very **, and he will never easily become anyone's vassal, in fact, I also want him to be used by me, but now it seems that he also has this heart, you can tell me, what should I do next?" ”

Pei Xin didn't expect his grandfather to ask for his opinion, he was a little flattered, he thought about it, and suggested in a low voice: "Did grandfather forget Yuanqing?" ”

Pei Ju suddenly woke up, he really forgot about Pei Xingyan, Pei Ju nodded, and said approvingly: "Your suggestion is very good, you will pay attention to Zhang Xuan in the future, you must grasp his movements, if there is a big change, you have to tell me in time." ”

"Grandson understood."

Pei Ju patted him on the shoulder, "I hope my grandson is no worse than anyone else, including Jang Hyun." (To be continued......) u
