Chapter 148 A good man fights in all directions

Just when Fan Xian was depressed, the only upright person in the Pei family, the Secretary of Shangshu Pei Xingjian, appeared at the counter.

Pei Xingjian originally heard that Pei Fanxian had not appeared in the store frequently these days. When he suddenly saw his figure, he paused.

"Ahon, please come in!"

Pei Fanxian greeted each other warmly, but it resolved Pei Xingjian's embarrassment a little. When the two arrived at the back house, Pei Xingjian drank a cup of hot tea. Pei Fanxian noticed that Lao Pei was actually carrying a bamboo basket in his hand.

What's going on?

I have to give eggs too!

However, there was also a handkerchief covered on the bamboo basket. He couldn't see clearly what was inside, and he was so curious that he was extremely curious.

"Fan Xian, these are horse milk grapes tributed by Khotan. The saint gave me a few baskets and I will bring you some."

Although Pei Xingjian is very enthusiastic, but Ma Mian Grape?

Pei Fanxian was really not interested in this thing. In the Tang Dynasty, it was considered a rare fruit and imported food. However, in the later generations of the 21st century, as long as it was summer, they could see it at almost every fruit stall and they were tired of it.

It's really not new.

"Aweng is so polite. The horse milk grapes are precious and are also given by the saints. Just keep them by yourself."

This was a polite word, but who knew that Pei Xingjian was still serious.

Put the bamboo basket on the table and shouted: "Fan Xian, please take it quickly and get this horse milk grape. You have the greatest contribution. This basket of grapes is for you, and the saints know it."

Pei Fanxian looked puzzled and smiled and said, "Do you know that this horse-grilled grape was specially sent by the king of Khotan, Fu Naoxiong, to send an envoy to pay tribute. Khotan captured the Tubo spy and could ensure safety in the next few years. Thank you for your brilliant plan."

"Of course, you should have a good product for tribute to Khotan."

The old man said this, and it would be unreasonable if he didn't accept it. Pei Fan first accepted it respectfully and asked Xiao Liu to prepare refreshments.

Since Zhang Qian went to the Western Regions in the Han Dynasty, grapes have appeared in the Han area in Central China because grapes are easy to bear and have a large number. By the Tang Dynasty, they had been widely planted in the Han area.

However, this horse milk grape with higher sugar was indeed a rare thing in the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty got this thing back to the era of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin.

At that time, Li Shimin led his troops to conquer Gaochang Kingdom, and obtained the seeds of horse milk grapes and learned about the planting technology.

It is only twenty or thirty years ago. The special variety of grapes, a horse milk grape, has not been widely planted in the Tang Dynasty.

In the east and west markets where rare treasures are gathered, this kind of grape is also a rare product and is expensive.

Unfortunately, there is only one basket, otherwise I would squeeze some grape juice and put it on ice. It would be a pleasure to cool down the heat in the hot summer.

"Fan Xian, according to my inference, the border will start again after not long. You are young and promising, and have great ambitions. Are you interested in following Ah Weng to fight on the battlefield?"

This old man, the fox's tail was finally revealed!

It's actually here to win over people!

"Now that the Tang Dynasty is in peace, how could Ah Weng have such an idea?" Fan Xian drank a sip of tea and said lightly.

Pei Xingjian could see from his eyes that this guy was pretending to be garlic.

"The military strategy is full of chaos, and attack instead of defense. The situation is bright now. It is the time when our Tang army is actively and aggressive and attacking Huanglong. How can we give up such a good opportunity?"

After saying this, Pei Xingjian stopped talking and focused on eating and drinking. In an instant, Pei Fanxian felt a sense of trance when his confidant was close to him.

"That's how Ahon really thinks?"

Pei Fanxian only mentioned the so-called strategy of attack instead of defense. He had no other part-time talk. He wandered around the East Palace every day. So far, Li Hong has not disclosed this strategy to anyone.

It seems that Pei Xingjian thought of this plan himself.

This is true, the heroes have similar views!

Pei Xingjian's eyes gathered slightly and said happily: "Of course, I have been on the battlefield for more than ten years. What I value most is to make a decision before moving. Now that there is such a good opportunity, I need your help."

In an instant, Pei Fanxian's thoughts were churning and his blood surged.

Good men fight on the battlefield!

Isn’t this what he has been looking forward to?

To expand territory for the Tang Dynasty, it is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others. Now all opportunities are delivered to you.

"As long as Ahn summons, his grandson will definitely serve."

Pei Xingjian was so embarrassed that he said that his grandson was difficult.

Although it should be called this by seniority, Pei Xingjian never regarded the boy in front of him as a child of his grandchildren. In Pei Fanxian's concept, Pei Xingjian was a Confucian general of the Tang Dynasty. So far, he was only in his forties, and was in his prime, just in his prime.

He was not as old as ever, and he could not get involved with the white-bearded old man.

"From now on, Ah Weng can call his younger generation Fan Xian."

"You also call me Shangshu."

The two of them laughed, and they both were both troubled by this arrogant title.

"Pei Shangshu, what happened to Pei Sheren recently? He hasn't come here for a long time, so he can't help but worry."

They are all old people, especially Pei Xingjian, who is very smart and wants to find out who is going to know, even if you want to tell the truth.

If he is beaten around the bush and his skills are not in place, if he exposes it, his face will be even more ugly.

"Pei Yan," Pei Xingjian sighed deeply when he thought of the last bad break.

"Don't you know that he is collecting strange and unofficial stories from both inside and outside the court and outside the country for the saints, re-copying and polishing them. As far as I know, he is very busy every day, and you have no time to come here for a while."

Pei Xingjian stroked his beard and thought to himself, could this kid want to walk around with Pei Yan?

"I see."

The old traitor is still doing this. It seems that the female devil has spared him, but it is thankless to collect gossip for Li Zhi after all.

The more you know, the greater the danger, and the old traitor is not far from being unlucky...

"Fan Xian," Xingjian suddenly approached and said seriously: "I would like to remind you that the Pei clan's branches are vast and the relationships between the various rooms are also very subtle and complicated. You live in Xicheng City all year round, and you don't know the depth."

"According to my opinion, you'd better stay safe now, as this will be the best for your future development."

Lao Pei is OK!

I also knew that the Pei family was a place of tigers and wolves and could protect him.

Pei Fanxian immediately stated: "Don't worry, Shangshu, I will not cling to the Sheren, but, in my opinion, Pei Sheren is quite willing to win over me."

Pei Xingjian understood, it turned out that Pei Yan was still close to the younger generation. Perhaps he wanted to use Fan Xian's power to suppress himself.

He straightened his spine and said bluntly: "Fan Xian, I asked you to come out of the mountain, not to win over it, but to appreciate your talents."

"Even if you are not a member of the Pei family, I know your abilities, and I will definitely recommend you to become an official in the court and join the army."

After hearing these words, Pei Fanxian suddenly felt a warm feeling in his heart. He agreed and valued them. This was the most sincere words he heard after coming to the Tang Dynasty.

Lao Pei was excited!

This was said from his number one idol, the powerful Pei Xingjian!

As a little fan of later generations, if Pei Fanxian can still sit still, he will be a god.

"Pei Shangshu appreciates his younger generation so much, he must do his best to fight on the battlefield!"

"well!"

"Young people must have such courage!"

"Don't learn Pei Yan's trick. I only know that pursuing the officialdom will definitely harm myself in the end. Our Pei family will eventually rely on their own real talents to start a career."

Pei Fanxian was stunned, huh?

Where did Pei Yan offend my idol?

Pei Xingjian, who has always been cautious in his words and actions and is upright and selfless, actually complains in front of his younger generations. It seems that the situation is very serious.
