Tang's dining table

"Today's Tang Dynasty court has just reached the period of division of power. Your Majesty, the Prince, and the Queen are dividing. Similarly, the courtiers are also dividing within their capabilities.

There are not many good opportunities like this. Once His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, Datang will usher in a new round of power gathering period. Nowadays, everyone is working hard to gain weight. If they cannot gain weight at this time, There is a thick layer of fat. When the period of power contraction comes, those who are not fat enough will starve to death, just like the line of King Zhao who just disappeared.

The purpose of Yun Chu's contact with Xue Rengui and me now is to extend his hand into the army and increase his voice in the army. However, judging from his refusal to extend Xiu'er's entry into Chang'an, this move is just a precautionary measure.

Chang'an caravans are spread all over the world. If they cannot obtain the protection of the military, it will be difficult to develop in border areas. Therefore, Yunchu's purpose of reaching out to the military is to gain some convenience.

As for arranging his own forces in the army, he probably has no such idea. "

Pei Xingjian slowly told his second wife Shedi his judgment on Yunchu's move. During this period, Pei Yanxiu was listening nearby, but the more he listened, the more confused he became. He couldn't help but say: "He just wants to Let the military personnel provide some convenience for Chang'an's caravan?"

Seeing that Pei Xingjian had drooped eyelids and seemed too lazy to tell his son, Shedi quickly said to his son: "Your Majesty's acquiescence to Yun Chu's layout in Chang'an is a rare grace. Therefore, Yun Chu must keep his duty, otherwise, The first person to deal with him will be His Majesty.

Chang'an's caravans are spread all over the world, sucking blood from all over the world to support Chang'an. Chang'an's caravans are actually the lifeblood of Chang'an. Without these caravan tentacles extending to the southeast, northwest and northwest, it would be absolutely impossible for Chang'an to maintain its current prosperity.

The caravan is a top priority for Yunchu. He has to rely on the military to seek stability for the Chang'an caravan. He does not dare to be too blatant and can only rely on the power of Pei and Xue.

Xue Na of the Xue family enters Chang'an, and our family, Aye, chooses you to enter Chang'an. It is just an exchange of power.

The fact that you entered Chang'an as an official means that Yunchu allowed the Pei family to enter Chang'an. Since Chang'an is the place of the richest man in the world and the source of wealth, the Pei family must enter. "

After listening to She Di's explanation, Pei Yanxiu said: "So, as long as we hold Chang'an's caravan, it is equivalent to holding Yun Chu's lifeline, right?"

Pei Xingjian heard this and said angrily: "Get out——"

Pei Yanxiu said in confusion: "I'm not wrong."

Shedi sighed and said to Pei Yanxiu: "Go ahead..."

After Pei Yanxiu left angrily, Pei Xingjian carefully looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and asked doubtfully: "The facial expression on your body is no longer obvious. Why is the facial expression on Yan Xiu'er so obvious?"

Shedi looked at Pei Xingjian with dissatisfaction and said, "Are you accusing me of being a bad woman?"

Pei Xingjian shook his head and said: "That's not a big deal, it's just a sigh of relief."

When Shedi saw that Pei Xingjian was a little disappointed because of his legitimate son, he whispered: "Otherwise, let Guangting go to Chang'an."

Pei Xingjian nodded and said, "You are a lady, and you have the final say in matters at home."

Shedi sighed quietly, got up and went to the back house.

Pei Xingjian's family had no common wives, only She Di, the head of the household, and all the other women in the back house were concubines. Pei Xingjian was granted the title Wenxi Gong, so besides the eldest wife, there could be no wives in the back house. Six concubines who eat the royal food.

Pei Xingjian fully occupied these seven places, and Aunt Gongsun, who had been with Pei Xingjian many times, was also one of them.

Before Pei Xingjian became a powerful official, Aunt Gongsun could work with Pei Xingjian on matters such as independence. Now that Pei Xingjian is the left prime minister, it is impossible for her to give birth to the Pei family. The woman was left outside, no matter how reluctant Gongsun was, she could not get rid of the title of Pei's concubine.

When She Di came to the courtyard where Gongsun lived, Gongsun had just finished practicing his sword. She Di looked at Gongsun who was soaked in sweat and dressed up, and she felt a little jealous in her heart.

Once other women reach the age of thirty-five, they are already unbearable old women. But Gongsun is different. Her mature and plump body is about to explode, and she still exudes an aura that makes men flock to her. charm.

Looking at Gongsun's plump body, and then looking at her own graceful body, Shedi sighed secretly, Tang people are so plump, which has become a trend in the Tang Dynasty.

Today's ladies of the Tang Dynasty are more plump than the other. It is said that this is the appearance of wealth.

I don’t know since when, women who can dance on the palms of their hands are no longer what the people of the Tang Dynasty like. On the contrary, it was those women with enthusiastic personalities and plump figures who became the favorites of the Tang people.

Looking away from Gongsun's plump and toned buttocks, Shedi said to Gongsun who came to see him as a gift: "Let Guang Ting'er prepare and go straight to Lantian Marquis Mansion to meet Marquis Yun."

Gongsun said in surprise: "Isn't it Young Master Yanxiu who is going?"

Shedi's Emei frowned slightly and said coldly: "Let Guangting go."

After saying that, he turned around and left. He seemed unwilling to say another word to Gongsun. After walking a few steps, he turned around and looked at Gongsun and said, "You should go to the Yun family less often, so as not to disturb the Pei family's family tradition."

Gongsun agreed and watched She Di lower his head.

She really didn't understand how an Israeli concubine could be involved in the Pei family style.

However, when he thought of Yun Chu's reputation as a good old woman, Gongsun looked down at his body and rubbed it up and down, feeling very proud. After all, Yun Chu looked at her with something wrong every time.

He raised his hand and patted his thigh and said softly: "No coward."

Although Pei Guangting was his son who was raised by himself, she still had to go through the eldest lady She Di to meet her. After all, Pei Guangting was recorded in the name of the eldest lady She Di, and she was just a concubine in the mansion.

Pei Guangting came to the courtyard in a polite manner, and said a few words to Gongsun without emotion in front of everyone. When Gongsun asked the servants and women to leave, Pei Guangting's body, which was originally as tall as a pine tree, suddenly collapsed. .

He lazily threw his body on the brocade, took a bite of a peach and said to Gongsun: "Auntie, if I go to Chang'an, what will you do if that woman makes things difficult for you?"

Gongsun loosened his son's bun and tied it up again while saying, "My mother is just a wild horse, and you are my tethering post. Without your tethering post, where can I go?" "

Pei Guangting said with a smile: "I'm sorry for you. From today on, I don't have to hold back anymore. If you want to practice sword dance, go practice sword dance. If you want to win the title of the best in the world, go and win."

Gongsun looked at his son's handsome face and said, "Aren't you afraid of getting a bad reputation?"

Pei Guangting took a bite of the peach and said, "No matter how much face I lose, my son will give you ten times and a hundred times to earn it back until the world only remembers my sword dance and not the bad reputation."

Gongsun burst into laughter, tapped his son's nose and said, "I don't know if the girls from wealthy families would be envious of the dancing concubine's son being so outstanding."

Pei Guangting said: "Of course I am envious, and I will be even more envious in the future."

Gongsun lowered his voice and said: "My son learned to climb high branches. This is a family tradition. After he went to Yun's family, he hugged Yun Chu's thigh and refused to let go. As long as it is beneficial to my son, feel free to do anything."

Aniang still has a three-point friendship with Yun Chu. "

Pei Guangting looked at his mother and said, "I got into trouble, and my mother has to pay the price?"

Gongsun chuckled and said, "It's not a big price for Yun Chu..."

Pei Guangting said awkwardly: "Aniang really likes the prince more than me, as people say?"

Gongsun let out a sigh of relief and said: "The Lord is half a year too late. If he had met the Lord half a year earlier, it is impossible for my mother to be the Yun family's wife. You would have been born into the Yun family and become a real noble son."

Pei Guangting said: "It's pretty good now."

Gongsun shook his head and said: "It's far from..."

Although Pei Guangting considered himself the son of a dancing girl and was still a little uncomfortable talking to his mother about these things, Gongsun had a cheerful temperament. She thought it would be better to explain the matter clearly to her son, lest he appear after he went to Chang'an. Errors in judgment.

There weren't many ways she could help her son, and the Yun family was almost the only connection she could make use of. She didn't care about anything when it came to her son's future.

After Pei Guangting talked in his mother's room for an hour, he coughed, stood upright, and left his mother expressionlessly to go to Aye's place for training.

"When you enter Chang'an, it means that Pei has entered Chang'an. When you go to Chang'an this time, you will take good care of the Chang'an official office and learn how to manage politics from the uncle of the Yun family. The rest of the affairs will be taken care of by Pei Tong, the steward."

Pei Xingjian's instructions to Pei Guangting were concise and concise. He knew that his youngest son had always been smart and saw things accurately, and could often draw inferences from one instance. This was very similar to him.

It's just that his temperament is somewhat old-fashioned, which is somewhat different from his bold and free spirit.

Therefore, just talk about some key points. Pei Guangting can naturally handle the small things.

Pei Guangting looked into his father's eyes and said, "Haier and Pei Tong each do their own thing. Isn't there a subordinate relationship between them?"

Pei Xingjian nodded and said, "That's right."

Pei Guangting shook his head and said: "No, the Pei family must be consistent in their actions in Chang'an City. If I go to Chang'an, the opinions of Hai'er and Pei Tong will be at odds, which will make the people below confused and disadvantageous to the Pei family."

Pei Xingjian looked at his son in front of him and said, "You want power?"

Pei Guangting said: "A real man cannot lose his power for a day."

As Pei Guangting expected, his words did not arouse Aye's disgust, but instead caused a burst of laughter. After the laughter stopped, Pei Xingjian said: "Pei Tong is your aunt's man, he will not listen to you. "

Pei Guangting said: "Then bring me another team..."

"No, doing so will cause discord in the family.

When I was working in Chang'an, I still had some manpower left over. Although these people have been suppressed by Yun Chu over the years and dare not even raise their heads, they are still a good force. I allow you to recruit them. Whether they can succeed or not depends on your ability. "

Pei Guangting said: "Okay, I want them."

Pei Xingjian looked at Pei Guangting with satisfaction and said, "Yes, that's what a man should do."
