Tang's dining table

Pei Xingjian is actually a very powerful person.

Before he became famous, although the Pei family was also a big family, it had been tepid since being taken care of by Emperor Taizong, and there were no outstanding figures in the family.

Until Pei Xingjian appeared, Pei was like a pool of stagnant water that suddenly found an outlet and suddenly came to life.

After Pei Xingjian became a civil servant, in order to avoid being tabooed by the emperor, he streamlined some of the forces left over from the military general period. Those who were useful and powerful followed him into Luoyang City, while those who were slightly weaker stayed behind. to Chang'an City.

Most of these manpower were recruited by Pei Xingjian during the Eastern Expedition.

Unlike Yunchu who liked to recruit a large number of low-level sergeants, Pei Xingjian, who was born in a noble family, usually recruited officers. The only famous generals he promoted were Cheng Wuting, Wang Fangyi, Li Duozuo, Hei Te Changzhi, etc.

Among them, He Teochangzhi received more favors from Yunchu. However, in terms of political leanings, he was more inclined to Pei Xingjian, the son of the aristocratic family.

Even if the manpower left in Chang'an is far inferior to that of a military leader like Wang Fangyi, they must not be underestimated.

Pei Xingjian knew very well what the group of people he left behind were like. Although Pei Guangting made bold words, he still thought that it would be very difficult for his son to win over these people.

After all, Pei Guangting is just the bastard in the family.

Pei Guangting left the house alone, which was fundamentally different from his brother's shouting when he went out.

Even so, the young man still looked flamboyant and confident after leaving home.

Yun Chu welcomed Pei Guangting's arrival. Unlike his brother who welcomed him, when he came, he not only met Yun Chu, but also Yu Xiurong, Yun Jin, Yun Jin, Princess Anding and Yun Luan, and even Cui Yao, Cui and all the core figures of the Yun family.

"You lived at home for a while when you were very young, but later your mother-in-law wanted to open the Sword Dance Pavilion and left the Yun family. Since then, I have rarely seen you. Now that you are a talented person, it can be seen that Your mother has high expectations for you."

Yu Xiurong was very happy to see Pei Guangting, and there was a bit of sadness in his words.

"When my mother was suffering as a singer in Chang'an, she received a lot of care from her uncle. It is the luck of the younger generation that Guangting can study under his uncle this time to learn how to manage politics."

Hearing Pei Guangting call Gongsun this way, whether it was Yun Chu or Yu Xiurong, their originally tense faces became more tolerant. At least, this guy didn't look down on his dancing queen mother.

Such a person is very in line with the appetite of everyone in the Yun family, because the most important thing in the Yun family is oneself, not one's origin. The real strength is the individual's own strength.

As for a person's origin, it doesn't matter.

Pei Guangting was no longer as rigid and solemn in the Yun family as he was in the Pei family. He smiled and listened to Yun Chu and Yu Xiurong's admonitions and expectations for him. He seriously answered their greetings to his mother, and soon followed Yun Jin and Yun Jin. Luan fights fiercely.

After Yun Chu met Pei Guangting, he went to the study. During the meeting at the back house, Pei Guangting expressed to him more than once that he wanted to talk alone.

Yunchu didn't believe that Pei Guangting would change his family and join the Yun family.

This thing is simply impossible, not to mention that Pei Xingjian's power was at its peak, betraying his family and joining others, just the pressure of public opinion and morality was enough to ruin all Pei Guangting's future.

Therefore, Yun Chu was very surprised that Pei Guangting wanted to talk to him alone about what he wanted to say.

Sure enough, half an hour later, Pei Guangting came to the study under the leadership of Yin Erhu.

"Uncle, my father has given me a difficult problem. If given time, I can solve it myself. However, my desire to control the situation as soon as possible is burning in my heart. I can't wait any longer and want to get some help from my uncle."

Yun Chu put down the book in his hand and said with a smile, "Let's talk about it."

"My father left the proud soldiers in Chang'an to the younger generation, but he didn't make it clear to those people. The younger generation needs to slowly collect them by himself."

When Yun Chu heard this, he smiled but remained silent.

"The juniors will choose those people first, and only fifty people will be selected."

Yun Chu then smiled and said: "They are not dead creatures, how can we control them?"

Pei Guangting smiled and said: "Since they knelt at my father's feet and enjoyed a lot of benefits in the past, there is no reason to enjoy the benefits in vain without paying for it."

Yun Chu said: "These people surround your father because of their own interests and are willing to listen to your father's orders. Over the years, your father has ignored them. Do you think you can still control them?"

Pei Guangting said: "My father has never been a person who only believes in morality. These people have been trained into the army."

Yunchu leaned back on the chair, looked at Pei Guangting and said, "Since you hold the handle and are already invincible, why do you want to share your Pei family's power with a certain family?"

Pei Guangting said without shame: "In order to maximize my own benefits, if I don't share it with my uncle, I can get at most 20% of the total power, or less, even if I get it, just by relying on my own strength. Nor can we get the best of them.

However, if the younger generation is willing to share it with his uncle, the nephew can get at least 40% of it and the best 40%. "

Yun Chu smiled when he heard this, tapped his finger on the desk twice and said: "During the two-month period, you have two months to do what you want to do in Chang'an. After two months, everything will be as usual.

As for the sharing you mentioned, a certain family doesn't want it. Firstly, they don't like it. Secondly, they don't want to be ridiculed by your father. Furthermore, before you came here, didn't you already firmly believe that your uncle and I will not take advantage of you? Is it cheap?

Since you think highly of your uncle and think that I am not a fussy person, I, as an uncle, naturally cannot let you down. "

Although Pei Guangting is old, he is still young. After being pierced by Yun Chusan's thoughts, his handsome face suddenly turned red.

Yun Chu continued: "It's very good. You also know how to use tactics. You have to know that there are countless people in this world. In front of a certain family, let alone using tactics, it is very good to be able to say everything in one sentence.

If you want to truly have your own power, you have to start as soon as possible. Your eldest mother is not an ordinary person. Once she knows that your father has given you good things from Chang'an, she will probably want to rob them.

I can only give you two months. "

Pei Guangting was indeed a character. He quickly controlled his bad mood and immediately asked: "How can uncle stop me? You should know that my mother's intervention is likely to be decided by word of mouth, and countless people come in and out of Chang'an every day." Come on, can uncle stop the person who comes to deliver the letter and give my nephew two months?"

Yun Chu waved his hands with a smile and said: "Of course a certain family does not have the ability you mentioned. Not to mention me, even your majesty cannot let your eldest mother deliver a message to Chang'an.

However, you don’t believe your father too much. Since he told you this, he also intends to let you cultivate your own strength. I think within two months, your eldest mother will either not know about this, or Suppressed by your father.

Otherwise, what he said would be in vain.

Go and thank your father. What he has given you is not just a few empty words, he should also give you something more practical. Don't care too much about face at this time. Ask for more and it will be easier in the future. "

Pei Guangting looked at Yun Chu warily and said, "Uncle wants to split the Pei family?"

Yun Chu said disdainfully: "From the moment you entered my house, wasn't your entire purpose just to be independent?"

Pei Guangting sniffed and said, "That's right. You can't say that."

Yun Chu threw down the book and said, "What should I say so that you can maintain your face and prevent others from criticizing you?"

Pei Guangting spread his hands and said, "I have no choice but to talk to my eldest brother about my eldest mother and make myself look helpless. In the end, I have to maintain my father's face."

The corner of Yun Chu's mouth twitched and he said, "You are a person who knows how to be filial."

Pei Guangting laughed and said, "My eldest mother and eldest brother always say that I am the son of a singer, and I am born to be a dirty bitch. What's wrong with me being a little bit dirty?"

Yun Chu had no choice but to nod: "That makes sense!"

Pei Guangting said: "My nephew will go to his father's place now to see if he can get more things. He was too decisive when he left home today, and now he has to go back in less than half a day. He is somewhat embarrassed about how to turn around. , I still need uncle’s help.”

Yun Chu said to Yin Erhu: "You go back with him and ask Lao Pei where he wants to place his son."

Pei Guangting smiled when he heard this and said, "This way we can go back in an open and honest manner."

After that, he took a look at the back room of Yunchu's study and followed Yin Erhu away.

As soon as Pei Guangting left, a room full of people hiding in the back room immediately came out. As soon as they came out, Yu Xiurong said to Yun Jin and the others: "Do you hear me clearly? If you dare to be filial to your parents like him in the future, you will be beaten to death." .”

Yun Jin pouted and said, "What a shameless person. He is trying to be a real villain."

Yun Jin shook his head and said: "There is nothing we can do about it. People may not know that we are hiding in the house. We just have an arrow on the string and have to shoot it. We say all these words just to win Aye's trust.

It can be regarded as burning the boat without leaving any way out for oneself, and it can be regarded as a figure along the way. "

Li Sidao: "This person is interesting. We can get close to him in the future."

When Yun Chu saw that Yun Luan was silent, he asked, "What do you think?"

Yun Luan said: "I will never put myself in such a humble and embarrassing position. I will grab what I can't get, and I will give up what I can't grab. No matter what, I won't make others laugh!"

When Yun Chu saw each child, he expressed his opinion and did not comment on what they said.

Just when she raised her head, she suddenly saw Yu Xiurong's big watery eyes, which were full of tenderness and sweetness. It seemed that she had seen the real reason from Pei Guangting's incident.

Yun Chu took another look at Yun Jin and found that his eyes were on Li Si, also lingering. Yun Chu understood immediately, and so did his eldest son.
