Chapter 460 Pei Xingjian

"Isn't the seat in front of me empty, why is there no seat?"

Li Ke and Wu Meiniang were at the same table, and the casual female guards were at the side table, so there were only two people at Li Ke's table, so naturally two seats were left vacant.

Li Ke's voice reached the ears of the tavern clerk, and also reached the ears of Mr. Pei. Mr. Pei followed Li Ke's voice and saw Li Ke sitting in the hall.

"There is no second Pei in the world", "Pei's family came from Hedong", the Pei family is one of the most powerful families in the world, and it is on the same level as the Taiyuan Wang family in Hedong. The young man in front of him was called "Mr. Pei", obviously he is the son of Wenxi Pei's family , Li Ke is naturally more interested in him.

And this Mr. Pei was born in a family, and he was able to fall into Li Ke's eyes, so naturally he would not be an ordinary person, and he still had eyesight.

Mr. Pei looked at Li Ke dressed in fine clothes, with a dignified face, and a somewhat Guanzhong accent when speaking, obviously not from Hedong, but Wu Meiniang next to Li Ke was extremely beautiful, although she was young, she behaved gracefully and gracefully. They are definitely not the wives of ordinary people, they are probably the outsiders that this guy is talking about.

Li Ke is interested in Mr. Pei, so why isn't this Mr. Pei interested in Li Ke?
Taiyuan is said to be big, but it is not big, and there are only those people around. He has seen most of the direct descendants of the aristocratic families in Taiyuan, but there is no one who can be as tolerant as Li Ke. Mr. Pei is naturally a little curious about Li Ke .

Mr. Pei walked to Li Ke's desk and said to Li Ke: "Thank you for your invitation, Mr. If you don't mind, Mr. Pei will sit down."

Li Ke raised his hand and said, "Please, Mr. Pei."

"Thank you." Mr. Pei cupped his hands and sat down.

After the Mr. Pei was seated, Li Ke asked first: "Just now I heard the tavern clerk call your Excellency Mr. Pei. You must be a son of the Wenxi Pei family, but I don't know which house Mr. Pei comes from from the Pei family in Hedong?"

The Pei clan of Wenxi has a total of five families, named as Dingzhu Wufang.

Hearing what Li Ke said, Young Master Pei asked, "Oh? Hearing what Young Master said, it seems that he is quite familiar with my Pei family."

Li Ke replied: "The elders of the family are old friends with the elders of Pei's family. They have known each other for many years, and the elders of Pei's parents can be regarded as the elders below. I just heard that the young master is a member of the elders, so I was curious and asked this question. "

Although what Li Ke said was casual, it was not a random fabrication. Li Ke's grandfather, Li Yuan, had an inseparable relationship with Pei Ji, Duke Wei of Kaiyuan Yuansu, and Pei Ji came from Wenxi Pei's Western Family House.

Mr. Pei said: "I don't know that the young master is a child of a family friend. I'm rude. I come from the family of the middle family in Hedong. I haven't asked the young master's honorable name."

Li Ke first asked Mr. Pei's family background. It was expected that Mr. Pei would ask Li Ke's name. Li Ke was also prepared. The identity of Mr. Pei was unknown, and Li Ke was unwilling to reveal his identity at will, so he replied: "Chu Ke, come from Guanzhong."

When Mr. Pei heard the words, he just thought about it for a while, and then said: "Your surname is Chu, and it has a Guanzhong accent. It must come from the Xinping Chu family in Guanzhong."

The Chu family in Xinping is also a family, naturally not as prosperous as the Pei family, but it is also among the famous families in the prefectures and counties. The Chu family's prestige is second to none: one is Jiangling, and the other is Xinping as Mr. Pei said.

Xinping is located in the northeast of Guanzhong, and Li Ke speaks with a Guanzhong accent. In Mr. Pei's opinion, Li Ke is naturally from the Chu family in Xinping.And the prefect of the Chu family is in Guanzhong, so naturally there are officials in Beijing, and it is normal to be acquainted with the Pei family, which is exactly what Li Ke said earlier.

After Mr. Pei said it, Li Ke didn't refute it. He smiled and said, "What Mr. Pei said is very true. I am indeed from Guanzhong, but I don't know Mr. Pei's honorable name yet?"

Mr. Pei replied: "My surname is Pei, my name is Xingjian, and I keep my word. You can just call me by Mr. Chu."

Pei Xingjian!Pei Shouyue!
Pei Xingjian reported his family name, his words caught his ears, Li Ke showed a look of surprise on his face, Li Ke hurriedly asked: "Is Shou Yue the son of the former Sui Hedong Duke, the younger brother of the Jiangjun Duke?"

Pei Xingjian nodded and said: "I'm right, I'm a little superficial, and my father and brother's name is dirty, so Brother Chu will laugh at me."

The Duke of Hedong in Li Ke's mouth is Pei Renji, and the Duke of Jiangjun is Pei Xingyan. Both of them are famous generals in the late Sui Dynasty, especially Pei Xingyan, who has become the enemy of ten thousand people, which is rare in the world.

In the chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were many heroes, and there were also military generals. In terms of martial arts alone, Qin Shubao, Yu Chigong, Luo Shixin, Pei Xingyan and Xue Ju should be the leaders. Pei Xingyan is a famous military general in the world. Not weird.

But this is just Pei Xingjian's own speculation. After all, Pei Xingjian is the same age as Li Ke, only 17 years old. Now Pei Xingjian is just an unknown person. How could he know that Li Ke had already remembered his name in his heart? .

Pei Xingjian, a famous marshal in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the hero of Confucian generals, learned from Su Dingfang, Wentao and Wulue, the real talent of a national scholar who is on horseback to lead the army and dismounts to govern the people, the first important minister in the Tang Dynasty to hold both the civil and military positions of the Minister of Rites and the General of the Right Guard .How could Li Ke not know such a person face to face.

However, Li Ke paused for a while, and after a while, the astonishment on his face disappeared, he cupped his hands, and said to Pei Xingjian: "It turns out that I am disrespectful after keeping the promise after being a famous general."

Pei Xingjian waved his hand and said modestly: "After what famous general, my brother has already been famous at my age, but I am still mediocre at the moment, but I am ashamed of my father and brother."

Li Ke heard the words and said: "Shouyue is self-deprecating. Shouyue is young. Although he is still in the countryside, according to my opinion, Shouyue is definitely not an ordinary person. Sooner or later he will become a great weapon. Why bother to lament the difficulties at this moment."

Pei Xingjian looked at Li Ke, and said with a smile: "Brother Chu is handsome and majestic, and he doesn't look like something in the pool. Hearing what Brother Chu said, it's even more so. I think Brother Chu has great ambitions to go north this time."

Li Ke asked curiously: "I don't know where to keep the promise?"

Pei Xingjian replied: "His Royal Highness, the third prince, King Chu, is ordered to manage Hedong and plan for the northern land. Everyone with insight in the world knows what he is planning. Right now, Hedong is the time when the wind and clouds are meeting. In this battle, you have made great achievements, and you have been conferred the title of marquis and general, isn’t it because of this that Mr. Chu went north?”

Hearing Pei Xingjian's words, Li Ke was not in a hurry to reply, but asked: "Brother Shouyue thinks that the King of Chu will surely win, and the Northern Expedition will be a meritorious service in the future?"

Pei Xingjian's eyes were full of confidence, and he said to Li Ke: "Although I am an unknown person, I still know a little about military skills. His Royal Highness the King of Chu uses his troops quite well, and he has the style of a famous general. He also has veteran Cao Guogong Li Ji as his assistant. , as long as there are no major changes, Datang will surely win."

Li Ke is Wu Meiniang's husband. Although Wu Meiniang didn't know who Pei Xingjian was, she was also happy to hear Pei Xingjian praise Li Ke. She saw that Li Ke seemed to appreciate Pei Xingjian, so she smiled and said, "Since Mr. Pei knows that the King of Chu's Northern Expedition must Victory, why not join the army with my husband and make meritorious deeds right away?"

Pei Xingyan waved his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Chu is here, it must be that the family has already settled for Brother Chu's official position. I am still a white man, and I have no good chance. How can I join the army."

What Pei Xingjian said was in Li Ke's mind. Li Ke kept silent at first, and said to Pei Xingjian: "Brother Shou Yue has extraordinary bearing and talent. Sooner or later he will become a great weapon. Why rush for a while."
