Chapter 380 Official Secretary

The woman hesitated and said, "There are your uncle, aunt, uncle and others."

Yang Yanzhang raised his eyebrows. Li Yuanji, Pei Ji and others did not become officials in the original trajectory. However, in Yang Yanzhang's memory, Pei Ji eventually became the prime minister.

Li Yuanji became Sikong. As for his parents, brothers Li Tai and Li Zhe, they also became ministers. Among them, Li Tai became prime minister and Shangshu of the Ministry of Hubu, Li Yuanji became Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel, and Li Zhe became Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments.

"Then I'll go and visit." Yang Yanzhang said calmly.

Li Chunfeng was the teacher sent by Li Yuan to assist him. Of course Yang Yanzhang would not forget him, but he had never had a chance to meet him. If he didn't take advantage of the opportunity now, when would he wait?

"Yanzhang." The woman said in surprise: "Do you know Pei Ji, Li Yuanji and others?"

"I live in the same hometown as them." Yang Yanzhang casually made up a lie and said perfunctorily: "Although we have never met, we can be considered half-old friends."

"In that case, Yan Zhang, you can go tomorrow." The woman said with a smile.

The next day, Yang Yanzhang took a carriage to Pei Ji's mansion.

As soon as they arrived at Pei Mansion, they met several of Pei Ji's children.

One of the young men named Pei Xingjian looked at Yang Yanzhang with an arrogant look.

Yang Yanzhang curled his lips and ignored Pei Xingjian.

"Humph!" Pei Xingjian snorted coldly.

"Yanzhang, what's wrong?" The woman hurriedly grabbed Yang Yanzhang and asked in a low voice.

"Nothing." Yang Yanzhang shook his head.

The woman frowned, then smiled brightly, and said softly: "Yanzhang, please wait for a moment, while mother takes your uncle and aunt to greet the guests."

Yang Yanzhang nodded.

Not long after, Pei Ji and others arrived.

"See His Highness the Crown Prince." Everyone bowed their hands and bowed respectfully.

Yang Yanzhang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Let's all get flat."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your grace." Pei Ji and others quickly thanked them and stood up straight.

Pei Ji, Pei Xingjian and others are Yang Yanzhang's cousins, but they are not compatriots. Their mothers are not of the same race as Yang Yanzhang's biological mother. It can even be said that they have a very bad relationship. Therefore, Yang Yanzhang also hates them.

Over the years, these people have gradually changed, or in other words, they have changed their ways and become good at pleasing Yang Yanzhang.

"Uncle Pei and Aunt Li, I hope this unpretentious visit will not disturb your peace." Yang Yanzhang said with a smile, quite satisfied with the performance of Pei Ji and the others.

"His Royal Highness is joking." Pei Ji smiled and said, "Your Highness is welcome to Penglai Pavilion. It's a blessing." After a pause, he said, "Your Highness, please."

Yang Yanzhang nodded slightly and followed Pei Ji into Pei's house.

Pei Ji's house was very lively. Pei Ji had six children, and Yang Yanzhang was the fourth. The Pei family was a large gentry family with many children. Pei Xingjian was Pei Zhan's son, and Li Yuanji was Li Jing's nephew.

The Pei family is prosperous.

"Yanzhang, today is your birthday. Logically speaking, birthday gifts should have been given yesterday. Unfortunately, your grandfather is seriously ill and in a coma, so he cannot come. Otherwise, I will ask him to write a congratulatory message. Let me bring it." Pei Ji smiled and handed the letter to Yang Yanzhang.

Yang Yanzhang's eyes lit up and he hurriedly opened the letter. This is a letter written by Li Yuan himself. In just a few words, he told Yang Yanzhang about his hard work during this period.

After Yang Yanzhang read the letter, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "My grandfather treated Yanzhang with great love. Not only did he make Yanzhang the prince of the East Palace, but he also wrote a letter in his own hand, telling Yanzhang to make good use of his officials and study diligently."

Pei Ji laughed and said, "Your Majesty indeed has high hopes for you." After speaking, he patted Yang Yanzhang on the shoulder and said, "Prince, don't worry, I, Pei Ji, am here to guarantee it.

Whether it is your cousin, cousin, or cousin, if they have any problems in their career in the future, they can come to me, and there is no need to worry about anything else. "

"Thank you, Uncle Pei." Yang Yanzhang felt slightly relieved after hearing this. Although he was ambitious, he did not have no affection for the children of the Li family.

"Yanzhang." Pei Zhan said with a smile, "Uncle heard that you have pioneered martial arts and taught a group of outstanding guards. I am very happy to congratulate you."

Yang Yanzhang said: "It's just some superficial martial arts skills, not worth mentioning, but Uncle Pei has been guarding the south for these years and has suffered greatly from the barbarians in the border areas.

Now he is leading an army to attack Tuyuhun and has made great military exploits, which are enough to be recorded in the annals of history and will be remembered forever. It is really admirable. "

"Yanzhang, you are exaggerating." Pei Zhan said quickly: "But Yanzhang, to tell you the truth, the Pei family's rapid development over the years is not due to my efforts, but to the Pei family's luck."

As he spoke, he pointed at Pei Xingjian and others beside him and said, "Yanzhang, do you know the life experience of these little bastards?"

"Oh?" Yang Yanzhang was stunned and looked at the boys and girls in front of him. They were all gorgeously dressed, and the materials of their clothes were much higher than ordinary people. It was obvious that a lot of money was spent on these boys and girls. Which of these dandy boys is the most economical person?

Yang Yanzhang half-smiled but said, "So, they are all descendants of the Pei family."

"That's right." Pei Zhan nodded and said with a wry smile: "The Pei family has been a family of merchants since three hundred years ago and has rich property. However, as the eldest brother, I can't help the Pei family.

On the contrary, because of my fault, the Pei family was demoted. All of this is the fault of my eldest brother. "

Yang Yanzhang secretly cursed trash in his heart, but with a look of realization on his face, he said: "The Pei family's demotion has nothing to do with my uncle. Uncle, please don't belittle yourself. Besides, the Pei family is the Pei family, and my uncle is my uncle."

Pei Zhan nodded bitterly and sighed: "This time when I return to the capital, in addition to celebrating your birthday, there is also something I need you to decide on."

After Pei Zhan finished speaking, the faces of everyone in the Pei family instantly became gloomy, especially Pei Xingjian, Li Yuanji and others, who stared at Pei Zhan.

Yang Yanzhang also frowned slightly and said, "Uncle, please speak."

Pei Zhan sighed and said slowly: "Two days ago, the Turks invaded Hetao."

"The Turks invaded again?" Yang Yanzhang was surprised.

"The Turks have become more and more powerful in recent years, and they will attack the countries in the Western Region every few months. This time, their target is Hetao." Pei Zhan sighed: "I have ordered the military camps in various places to step up training of soldiers to prepare for the Turks' attacks. attack."

Yang Yanzhang was silent.

"Yanzhang, how do you think we should respond?" Pei Zhan suddenly asked, "Can't we just sit back and wait for death?"

"This." Yang Yanzhang thought for a moment and said, "Uncle, the Turks are so powerful that they cannot be easily solved."

"Then what do you think I should do?" Pei Zhan asked.

"The Turks dare not wreak havoc on the countries in the Western Regions. They will not be stupid enough to become enemies of the entire world, so as long as they can block their attack, they will not be able to do anything to defeat the countries in the Western Regions in the short term."
