Pei Ju put down the book and said with a smile: "General Zhang, please take a seat!" ”

Zhang Xuan sat down and bowed: "During this time, the juniors are too busy-"

Without waiting for Zhang Xuan to continue, Pei Ju waved his hand to interrupt him, "General Zhang may not know that I have been in poor health in the past half a month, and I rarely go to the court, so I must be extremely careful at this age, and I can't take a little illness lightly." ”

Pei Ju was telling Zhang Xuan that he was sick during this time, so he didn't pay attention to Zhang Xuan, which was to find a step for both parties.

Zhang Xuan was silent for a moment, and then asked, "How is Pei Gong's health now?" ”

"What do you see?" Pei Ju asked with a smile.

"It seems to be a little better."

"It's much better, I also went to the court to meet the saint today, by the way, the saint also mentioned Zhang Xutuo."

"What did the Holy One say?" Jang Hyun asked with interest on his face.

Pei Ju glanced at Zhang Xuan and said meaningfully: "The saint is very worried about the situation of bandits in Shandong, he is worried that the bandits will come back?" I told the Holy Lord, if that day really comes, I might as well send Zhang Xutuo back again. ”

Zhang Xuan didn't know whether Yang Guang said this to Pei Ju, but Zhang Xuan understood why Pei Ju mentioned this matter, he was actually hinting to himself that it was a mistake to remove Zhang Xutuo.

But it's never a good way to make up for mistakes, what is 'What if there really is?' 'To apologize for something impossible, it can only be said that Pei Ju has no sincerity to apologize, if he is sincere, he should express it in a more pragmatic way, which can only show that Pei Ju is still perfunctory.

But even if it is perfunctory, it is also a way to apologize, why did Pei Ju apologize, and why didn't he apologize to him himself?

Jang Hyun suddenly realized that he seemed to have misunderstood. Pei Ju probably didn't know about his cooperation with Dou Qing.

Zhang Xuan remained silent and continued to listen to Pei Ju.

Seeing that Zhang Xuan didn't answer his words, Pei Ju knew that he didn't want to mention this matter, so he changed the topic and smiled: "I haven't seen His Royal Highness King Yan for a long time, how is his current situation, General Zhang should know, right?" ”

Until this time. Zhang Xuan understood where Pei Ju's dissatisfaction was? It is not in the cooperation between himself and Dou Qing, but the restoration of the relationship between himself and King Yan, which poses a great threat to Pei Ju.

Pei Ju is testing himself.

Zhang Xuan sighed slightly: "The humble position only met the king of Yan once by chance, and his attitude was very polite, but the humble position can feel that he is not the king of Yan in the past, there is a gap between us, and His Royal Highness the king of Yan seems to have a little prejudice against the humble position." The humble position is incomprehensible, can Pei Gong understand? ”

Of course, Pei Ju knew what King Yan's attitude towards Zhang Xuan was, and Yang Qi also took Zhang Xuan to see the saint overnight, this is a prejudice, Pei Ju couldn't help sneering in his heart, does Zhang Xuan really think that he doesn't know anything?

But then again, when Jang Hyun said this, he said that he didn't want to give up his backstage. It's just that their relationship will take time to slowly mend.

Pei Ju smiled faintly, "His Royal Highness King Yan is constantly growing. The general could no longer know him through the old eyes. ”

The two were silent again, silent for a moment, and Zhang Xuan said again: "I visited Pei Gong today because I plan to return to Beihai County, and I have come to bid farewell to Pei Gong." ”

"Is the general going back so soon?"

"It's been almost a month since I entered Beijing, and I'm worried that Sun Xuanya will make a move. So rush back. ”

"I see, when exactly did the general set off?"

"The time hasn't been officially set yet, and I still have to say goodbye to some new friends, probably just a few days."

"Okay!"

Pei Ju nodded and smiled: "Then I will wish the general a smooth journey, and the general can write a letter if he has anything." I will help the general as always. ”

"Thank you Pei Gong, I have resigned from my humble position."

Zhang Xuan said goodbye and left, Pei Xin kept sending Zhang Xuan out of the house, and then hurried back, he walked into the room and saw that his grandfather was writing a letter, Pei Xin didn't dare to disturb, and stood aside with his hands down.

After Pei Ju finished writing the letter to Pei Renji, he put down his pen and smiled: "Sit down!" ”

Pei Xin sat down and asked puzzledly, "Why didn't Grandfather mention the matter of Yuan Min?" ”

"Why do you want to mention that incident and express your dissatisfaction with Jang Hyun?" Pei Ju looked at his grandson and smiled.

"But my grandfather was very angry at the time, and my grandson remembered it very clearly, and my grandfather angrily scolded Zhang Xuan for being unreliable."

Pei Ju smiled, "Scolding is scolding, but everything has to be weighed from the overall situation, now I can see through it, Pei Jiaxiu wants to control Zhang Xuan, but now is not the time to turn his face with him, do you know why?" ”

Pei Xin pondered for a moment, and suddenly came to his senses, "Grandfather is worried about Second Uncle Pei?" ”

Pei Xin's second uncle Pei Ren Ji is Pei Renji, and Pei Xin realized that what his grandfather said about the overall situation was Pei Renji.

Seeing that he understood, Pei Ju nodded and said: "Your second uncle's foundation in Qingzhou is too shallow, he needs Zhang Xuan's support to gain a firm foothold, if I turn against Zhang Xuan now, it will only be detrimental to our Pei family, so I try my best to tolerate him, but Zhang Xuan is too ambitious, and we must keep a certain distance from him at the same time, so as not to be implicated by him." ”

"Grandfather is saying that Jang Hyun has the heart to be self-reliant?" Pei Xin asked in surprise.

"My gut tells me that he does think this way."

"Grandfather, what are we going to do then?"

Pei Xin was really a little worried, after all, he was young and a literati, and his life experience was far inferior to that of his grandfather.

Pei Ju smiled and shook his head, "Let's do nothing, wait and see!" ”

Early the next morning, when Zhang Xuan was still washing by the well, Luo Shixin ran over like a monkey and looked at Zhang Xuan with admiration on his face.

"What's wrong?" Jang Hyun asked with a vague smile.

"Big brother, it's really amazing! When did you hook up with the princess? ”

Zhang Xuan flew up and kicked him in the heel fight, spit out the water in his mouth and scolded: "Say again!" ”

"O conscience of heaven and earth! I, Luo Shixin, don't dare to say half a lie, there is a princess outside to find the eldest brother. ”

Zhang Xuan changed his mind, and suddenly understood that it must be the little princess Yang Jier who came to find him, and thought that she would come in two days, but he didn't expect to come today, and he came so early, Zhang Xuan didn't care about teaching Luo Shixin a lesson, so he hurriedly washed his face and walked briskly outside the mansion.

There was a wide carriage parked outside the gate of the mansion, surrounded by more than twenty horseback guards, all expressionless, when Zhang Xuan walked out of the mansion, most of the guards turned a blind eye, only a few guards twisted their heads in disdain.

Zhang Xuan felt that his head was big for a while, so many guards came, nothing could be done, and at this time, an old eunuch ran over with a smile on his face, "General Zhang, come so early, disturb." ”

"It's okay!"

Zhang Xuan glanced at the carriage, "Has Her Royal Highness the princess come down?" ”

"Brother Zhang, I'm here!"

I saw the curtain of the car open, revealing the little princess Yang Jier's smiling little face, and Luo Shixin, who was following Zhang Xuan, was suddenly disappointed, it turned out to be such a small princess! He suddenly felt bored, turned around and slipped back to the house.

Yang Ji'er's 'Brother Zhang' made all the guards' brows furrow, this title really made them unaccustomed.

Zhang Xuan walked forward quickly and said with a smile: "Is Her Royal Highness the princess going to go on a trip today?" ”

Yang Ji'er was so clever, she suddenly heard the reluctance in Zhang Xuan's words, and pouted a little unhappily: "What, you have something to do today?" ”

Zhang Xuan sighed and smiled: "I don't have anything to do, it's just that I have something I want to trouble the princess to help, and the time is tomorrow." ”

"What's the matter? Tell me about it! ”

Yang Jier poked her head out, she had always been enthusiastic about helping people, although she had never been given the opportunity to help.

Zhang Xuan stepped forward and whispered a few words to her, Yang Ji'er's eyes suddenly swelled with great interest, and she smiled and said: "I like to do this kind of thing the most, no problem, it's on me." ”

"Can you come out tomorrow?"

Yang Jier was a little hesitant, her mother only allowed her to come out for one day, she came out today, then she couldn't come out tomorrow, she looked at Zhang Xuan, and thought about it again, is it important to help Zhang Xuan, or is it important to go out by herself?

But in the end, she made a decision, grinning and saying, "Okay then! I'll go back today, and we'll go on a hike tomorrow, and Brother Zhang will go to work if he has something! ”

Zhang Xuan was really grateful, and hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted her, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Princess!" ”

Yang Ji'er scratched her head and said embarrassedly: "What is there to thank, I'll go first." ”

Yang Ji'er commanded, "Go back to the palace!" ”

The carriage started slowly, and the guards ignored Zhang Xuan, escorting the carriage to gallop outside the gate (to be continued......)
