When he took Pei's mother back to the mansion, he saw the prosperity of Pei's mansion, Pei's mother was also amazed.

Pei Min led Pei's mother to meet Xue Ne. On the way, Pei Min had already told Pei's mother about her relationship with Xue Ne. She had not received much care from Xue Ne on the way, and she was deeply grateful for her kindness and thanked her.

As a general who killed and attacked Kokang, Xue Ne didn't care much about this kind of red tape, so she asked Pei Min to take Pei's mother to the house to rest.

Pei's mother was exhausted and she really needed a good rest. Pei Min helped Pei's mother to the room she had prepared for her. A smart and beautiful girl in the room had already prepared hot water. Pei Min smiled and said, "Mom, this is the maid who I invited to take care of you. She is called Hongqu. If you have anything to do, just tell her."

Before Pei Min's introduction, Hongqu had already come to pay a visit.

"Hongqu has met the old lady!"

There has always been a market for buying and selling maids in feudal society. Pei Min specially asked the butler Ning Ze to carefully buy the Hongqu from the market. After special training, the housekeeping was versatile, clever and well-behaved, and he spent a lot of his salary. If it weren't for the Tang Dynasty's salary that was settled every year, he would not have been able to buy Hongqu with Pei Min's monthly salary.

Pei's mother was lonely for half her life and never thought about having a maid to serve her. However, she also lived in a wealthy family. She knew that a carefully trained girl was not as expensive as she was, and said with a heartache: "Mom has hands and feet, so she needs someone to serve her."

Pei Min smiled and said, "Don't serve someone to talk to you! After all, my child is in the court now, so it's time to take leave to accompany her mother. With Hongqu at home, I feel more at ease when I'm away. I know that my mother is soft-hearted, even if I raise her daughter, I will follow you. As long as you are always happy."

Hongqu also pretended to be pitiful at the right time. Pei's mother was so distressed that she said, "I've made my mother become a villain. Okay, let's stay. My mother is tired. Remember to prepare gifts. Don't forget to visit Xin'er's parents tomorrow."

"I know! I'll prepare the gift now!" Pei Min bid farewell to Pei's mother and immediately went down to prepare. He attached great importance to the relationship with Yan Gaoqing, and the gift was prepared very well. He casually asked Ning Ze to send someone to inquire about the residence of Yan's mansion. Yan Gaoqing was the great-grandson of Yan Shigu, and Yan Shigu was the most famous scholar in the Tang Dynasty. It is not difficult to find out about the residence.

After arranging this, Pei Min just thought about what he thought of on the road, how to play out his unparalleled signature in order to attract strong people to challenge them, so that he can improve his sword skills in actual combat, think a little, and have a certain plan.

"Ningze!" Pei Min found his capable butler.

"What are the instructions for the young master?" Ning Ze bowed politely and said hello. Pei Min was not used to calling Master Cheng at a young age. Almost everyone in the mansion called him a young master.

"Do you know who is the best plaque carving technique in Chang'an?" Pei Min did not intend to get the answer directly from Ning Ze, but just took the opportunity to ask him to ask for it, but he did not expect that Ning Ze would answer without hesitation.

"Of course it is Zheng Yongtai, the master craftsman of Hepingfang in the southwest of the city!"

"Who is Zheng Yongtai?" Pei Min asked happily. The more famous the sculptor, the better the effect he had.

Ning Ze smiled and said, "Zheng Yongtai's ancestors have been carving masters for generations. All the plaques in the palace, as well as the seals of prime ministers such as the Shangshu Province, the Secretariat, the Menxia Province, etc. were carved by the Zheng family. Di Guo Lao's inscriptions were evenly handled by him. His ancestral craftsmanship is recognized as the first. Young Master, is he trying to find him to carve a plaque? But Zheng Lao had already sealed his sword five years ago and was only made an exception for others in five years. If the young master really wanted to find a carving master, he could find his apprentice. Although his apprentices were not as good as their masters, they were 70% level. However, the Zheng family's craftsmanship had a rule, and his handwriting would not be carved by the handwriting of non-famous masters. They stubbornly believed that only words that were truly worthy of carving could not disappoint the Zheng family's ancestral craftsmanship."

Pei Min's eyes were bright and she smiled and said, "Tell me, who did he make an exception for?"

Ning Ze said: "It was Xue Ji, who used the four words "Mobao of his teacher Yu Shinan to restrain himself and restore rituals to Zheng Yongtai, and carved a square plaque for him to warn future generations."

Pei Min hesitated for a moment. Yu Shinan was the four famous calligraphers in the early Tang Dynasty. Zheng Yongtai made an exception for him. Li Longji's calligraphy is not bad, but compared with a master of calligraphy like Yu Shinan, there is still a big gap. I don't know if the words of the emperor today have any bonus. Whether it is successful or not, let's talk about it.

Pei Min said again: "There are a lot of free houses in this mansion. I plan to renovate the guest room near the martial arts stadium and change it to my separate martial arts stadium. I will give you the design drawings. You are responsible for finding a craftsman to decorate it carefully."

Ning Ze accepted the order.

Of course, he didn't want to set up a martial arts training ground for himself, but wanted to design a venue similar to Taoist temples to compete with Jianghu people. But now he is a high-ranking and powerful person in front of Li Longji. He dares not offend him in public, and there are definitely people who secretly think of him. If he set up a martial arts hall to entertain Jianghu rich guys who come to challenge him, he might inexplicably participate in the book. Now he has no foundation in the court and does not want to cause unnecessary trouble, so he changed his method. The purpose is just different.

The design drawings were drawn overnight. The structure of the competition venue was extremely simple, just empty. The biggest feature was that it was paved with wooden boards, full of ancient style.

The next morning, Pei Min and Pei's mother asked for peace, and at her urging, they brought gifts to the Yan family to say hello.

At this time, the Yan family was a little depressed. Yan Gaoqing's father Yan Yuansun was smart since childhood. He was good at writing and writing. In the early years of Chuigong, he passed the Jinshi and became a Jinshi. He had a successful career in the road. He served as Chang'an Wei, the Crown Prince's Sheren and other officials. After Li Longji ascended the throne, he promoted Yan Yuansun to be the Zhongshu Sheren. This promotion caused trouble. His promotion aroused Lu Qi's jealousy. Lu Qi also took a fancy to the position of Zhongshu Sheren and specially became Wang Ju's disciple, but he did not want Yan Yuansun to be the first.

Wang Ju and Pei Min were also Li Longji's heroes. After the innate coup, he was appointed as the Minister of Revenue. He was a special member of the Ministry of Revenue. He participated in the major affairs of Henan and was appointed as the Minister of the State Council of Zhao. He was highly valued by Li Longji. Now he has a title called "Inner Prime Minister". He said that although he does not have the power of the prime minister, he is the prime minister beside Li Longji. Wang Ju is only a step away from the prime minister. For some reason, he is establishing his own party and cultivating his own power.

Lu Qi is from the Lu family in Fanyang. As the Lu family among the five aristocratic families, although Wu Zetian's malicious targeting was greatly damaged, it was like a hundred-legged insect that died without being stiff. The Lu family still has a good foundation and has a large talent base.

In order to win over the Lu family behind Lu Qi, Wang Ju used his power to disgust Yan Yuansun, and made trouble for him everywhere, trying to drive him out. However, Yan Yuansun was born in a Confucian family, and his ancestors were Yan Hui, the most talented and most valued disciple under Confucius. Perhaps he was not as good as his son Yan Gaoqing in governing the world, but the lyrics and music that the scholars of the Central Secretariat were good at were extremely handsome and could not find any faults and failed to do what Wang Ju wished.

Yan Yuansun was wary of Wang Ju day and night. He became sick and had to rest at home. Thinking of the dangers in the court, Yan Yuansun couldn't help but sigh, and his wife Yuanshi was also crying secretly beside him.

Yuan said: "It's really not possible, it's better to abandon your official position and go to Weizhou and live happily with Xin'er."

Yan Yuansun hummed, "No, my father passed the Yan family's business to me. How could he abandon his ancestral business like this? I don't believe it. As long as I am law-abiding, how can Wang Ju be with me?" He said so much that he was very confident.

At this moment, Yan Yuansun and Yuanshi suddenly received news that Pei Min asked for a meeting.

Yan Yuansun, Yuanshi, you look at me.

Yuanshi said: "Which Pei Min?"

Yan Yuansun was so scared that his face turned pale and said tremblingly: "How can there be a second Pei Min in Chang'an today? Wang Ju has good methods, and the Censor Zhongcheng came to him directly."

Yuan frowned and said, "I don't think so, do you still remember Xin'er came to write a letter two years ago, saying that he had met a close friend in Youzhou and was about to go to Beijing to take the exam. Let us take care of Yi Er?"

Yan Yuansun suddenly said, "I forgot if you don't say it, but now Pei Min is a pride of heaven and has a very different status. Will he still remember a little bit of affection?"

Yuan pushed him and said, "No matter what, let's talk about it when you see him."

"Okay!" Yan Yuansun finished his clothes and walked to see Pei Min with Yuanshi. On the way, they met the butler holding the gift list in his hand. After asking carefully, they found out that Pei Min was here to visit the house.

Entering the House to worship relatives is a kind of elegant and vulgarity of the ancients, especially referring to the young generation's deep affection, so they regard the other party's parents as their own parents. Zhang Shao formed a life-and-death relationship in the Eastern Han Dynasty, went to worship relatives, and Sun Ce of the Three Kingdoms, and Zhou Yu went to worship mothers.

Yan Yuansun, Yuanshi could not have imagined that Yan Gaoqing and Pei Min were so close, and even more so that Pei Min was in a high position but did not change her original intention. She was moved and hurriedly gave orders and received the grand reception.

"My younger generation Pei Min and Brother Yan are in common and are close friends! After many days in Beijing, they have been to the capital, but they have been to visit Brother Yan and the two elders of Yan's mansion in the future. They are so shameless! Today I come to apologize for the crime and hope that the two elders will forgive me." Pei Min gave a ritual and gave Yan Yuansun, the most solemn etiquette in the ancient nine worships of Yuan.

Yan Yuansun, Yuanshi was flattered and hurriedly stepped forward to help Pei Min up.

"Pei Zhongcheng, don't want to do this, be ashamed of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of being aware of!"

Pei Min said: "Uncle Yan, Aunt Yan is Brother Yan's parents. Just like my parents, there is no reason why I can't stand it. The two elders are so polite that they will only hurt my friendship with Brother Yan, and will make me have no face to meet him in the future."

Yan Yuansun sighed: "I have the best friends like you, Xin'er is lucky in three lives."

Seeing that Yan Yuansun's face was not very good, Pei Min asked with concern: "Uncle Yan is not in good health? I know Doctor Liu, so I can ask him to treat Uncle Yan."

Yan Yuansun shook his head and sighed.

Yuan took the opportunity to explain the situation in detail.
