At the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there were many famous generals, but they could be called famous generals. Only a few people could compare them with famous generals of all dynasties.

Li Shimin, Li Jing, Li Ji, Li Xiaogong, Su Dingfang, and then it should be Pei Xingjian. The famous generals in the world must have a place for Pei Xingjian. Such a person is in Hedong with Li Ke, so how could Li Ke let go?

In fact, Li Ke has always kept it in mind about Pei Xingjian, but Pei Xingjian is still young, and Li Ke is not in a hurry to recruit him. He just didn't expect that Pei Xingjian would actually be the one who was in his own way today.

"Sanlang seems to have a lot of appreciation for Pei Xingjian." Li Ke and Wu Meiniang returned to the Wu Mansion after dinner. On the way to the banquet in the evening, Wu Meiniang remembered what happened at noon today and said to Li Ke.

Li Ke said: "Yes, Pei Xingjian was born in a famous family, and his father and brother were both good generals. He had a family background. If he had a little hardship, he would become a great talent."

Wu Meiniang asked in confusion: "Since Sanlang attaches great importance to Pei Xingjian, why not recruit him into the mansion and let him go instead?"

Li Ke walked and smiled and said, "Pei Xingjian is a child of the Pei family. If I want to use it, he will not be able to escape. However, the Pei family is a famous family and should not wait for it. Therefore, I have not revealed my identity. I should wait for me to return to Jinyang to order the Pei family to show my solemnity."

"Sanlang said that Pei Xingjian is not only himself, but the one standing behind him is Wenxi's family's family. It's better to be cautious." Children of aristocratic families value their appearance and look at the rules. Naturally, they can use their methods. What Li Ke said makes sense. Wu Meiniang nodded in agreement when she heard this.

But just as Wu Meiniang finished speaking, she raised her head and saw an interesting scene. Just outside the side hall of the Wu Mansion where the banquet was held, Wu Meiniang saw a familiar figure.

Wu Meiniang then smiled at Li Ke and said, "What Sanlang said is not bad, but I'm afraid Sanlang's idea will not be able to fight."

Li Ke asked in confusion: "Oh? Why is this?"

Wu Meiniang pointed to the man standing outside the side hall door in front and said to Li Ke: "Sanlang, let's see who that is?"

Li Ke looked in the direction Wu Meiniang pointed, and immediately understood what Wu Meiniang meant. It turned out that the person standing outside the side hall was not someone else, but Pei Xingjian, who they had met in the restaurant at noon.

The person who was invited by Li Ke today was Pei Renshi. Pei Xingjian appeared here, so he naturally came with Pei Renshi. Pei Xingjian was mostly also the sons and nephews of Pei Renshi.

The Pei family is a large Hedong clan, and there are many Pei family members in Taiyuan. Pei Renshi is not a famous scholar, so Li Ke didn't know him well, and he never thought about the relationship between him and Pei Xingjian. Li Ke only claimed a pseudonym in front of Pei Xingjian in the afternoon, but he never thought that it was exposed in person in half a day.

"My teacher Pei Ren greets you to the princess." Li Ke and Wu Meiniang saw Pei Ren, and Pei Ren also naturally saw Li Ke. Li Ke and Wu Meiniang approached, and Pei Ren hurriedly stepped forward to worship.

Pei Renshi's actions made Pei Xingjian stunned. Pei Xingjian could see clearly. The two people in front of him were clearly the young couple he saw in the restaurant at noon. The young man also called himself Chu Ke, but his uncle actually called him "Your Highness".

Master Pei Ren came here to pay homage to King Li Ke of Chu. Master Pei Ren would not recognize the wrong person. Those who can be called "Your Highness" by Master Pei Ren must have the title of king. If there is no king of different surnames in the Tang Dynasty, then Chu Ke is naturally not his name. His name should be Li Ke.

Pei Xingjian was still wondering before that the small Xinping Chu family was just an ordinary family, how could it be produced? Pei Xingjian then realized that the young boy he saw at noon was not a child of Xinping Chu family, but the third son of Emperor Tang and King Li Ke of Chu, which made sense.

Pei Xingjian was still thinking in his mind, and suddenly stopped. He could not meet Pei Ren after he was able to meet him in time. Seeing this, Pei Ren, who was standing beside him, was not aware of it. He was afraid that Li Ke would be angry, so he quickly pulled Pei Xingjian's corner of his clothes and said to Pei Xingjian: "Keep the promise, why don't you pay a visit to His Highness the King of Chu."

When Pei Xingjian heard this, he quickly leaned over and said, "Pei Xingjian, a grass man, pays homage to His Highness."

After Pei Xingjian worshipped, Pei Renshi stood up and apologized to Li Ke: "I have no rudeness to give up my nephew, so I hope your highness will not blame you."

With the words of Pei Renshi, Li Ke also confirmed the relationship between the two more. Pei Renji died early, and Pei Xingjian should have been young when Pei Renji died. It seems that Pei Xingjian was mostly educated by Pei Renshi.

Li Ke waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm not the first meeting between me and Mr. Pei."

After Li Ke finished speaking, he raised his hand and helped Pei Xingjian in front of him.

Li Ke said to Pei Xingjian: "I didn't expect that after half a day, I and Mr. Pei will see each other again."

Pei Xingjian was no better than ordinary people. Li Ke was in front of him, and the incident happened suddenly. Pei Xingjian was not even cowardly, but instead laughed: "The grass people are clumsy in their eyes. Your Highness jokes, it's so hard to deceive the grass people."

Pei Xingjian was smart. If it were in normal times, what Li Ke said might not have completely deceived Pei Xingjian. However, the Emperor of Supreme has been mourning recently. Pei Xingjian was in Hedong and did not know the situation in Chang'an. Pei Xingjian only thought that the King of Chu was busy with the Emperor of Supreme's funeral in the capital, so he never thought about it.

When Li Ke heard this, he replied seriously: "I will say this incorrectly. I have never deceived you. I am King Ke of Chu. In short, isn't it Chu Ke?"

Chu Ke and King Ke of Chu were apart, but they were thousands of miles apart. However, Li Ke both spoke, and Pei Xingjian could only smile and said, "That's what the grass people think badly."

Li Ke smiled and said, "Whether Li Ke or Chu Ke, you and I can see you again here is your fate. County Magistrate Pei and Mr. Pei will take your seat at the banquet."

As he said that, Li Ke went into the side hall first and sat down in the main seat at the top of the hall.

After a few people sat down, Li Ke ordered the maids in the hall to fill the wine, picked up the wine glass, and said to Pei Renshi: "Wenshui County is the hometown of the princess, and the magistrate Pei is the local chief of Wenshui. This time, I invited the magistrate Pei to the palace and the banquet to see the parents of Wenshui County. The magistrate Pei would not feel abrupt."

Pei Renshi also raised his glass and said, "Your Highness is serious. Your Highness wants to see me. Just pass a command. I should come to the palace to pay my respects. How dare you ask Your Highness to set up a special banquet for entertainment?"

Li Ke raised his glass and drank the American wine in the glass, and smiled and said, "Mr. Pei's words are awful. If I hadn't set up a special banquet to entertain you, how could I know that Mr. Pei was the nephew of the magistrate Pei? At noon, I and Mr. Pei got old and had a good time at the restaurant in the county town. They regretted the hasty time and were unable to talk to Mr. Pei for a few more details. Ms. Pei sent Mr. Pei."

Pei Renshi said, "I have heard of your highness for a long time and want to see your highness. So I begged me to bring him to the banquet with you. Your Highness is fine if you don't know anything about it."

Li Ke smiled and said, "Mr. Pei is very talkative and knowledgeable, and is definitely not comparable to an ordinary young man. How could I be strange? But I met Magistrate Pei today and I have another matter to discuss with Magistrate Pei and Magistrate Pei."

When Master Pei Ren heard this, he replied, "I don't know what Your Highness is referring to, but please give me instructions."

Li Ke said: "My King's Chu Palace Shangquedongto sacrificed wine. I even like Mr. Pei, but I don't know if Mr. Pei is willing to surrender."

The Prince's Mansion was in charge of wine, and he was in charge of the prince's mansion to deal with virtuous people and guide the guests' responsibilities. He was in the seventh rank. Although he was not considered an important position, he often followed Li Ke and was also a confidant minister. Pei Xingjian was still a white man, so Li Ke treated him with wine, so naturally he wanted to use it in the future.

Li Ke respected Pei Xingjian's talent and intended to value Pei Xingjian, but Pei Xingjian was also looking for opportunities.

Since Pei Xingjian's father Pei Renji died early, the situation in the Pei family in Hedong has been worse than before. Not only was he suppressed by the Western family Pei and the Eastern family Pei Wen, but he even came from Ma Pei and Nanlai Wu Pei and vaguely suppressed him, and the Pei family in the Middle Family was naturally anxious.

Teacher Pei Ren is only a talent of a hundred miles. Even if his luck is better, at most, he is the talent of the governor of a state, and it is difficult to achieve great things. Therefore, Pei Xingjian came here with Teacher Pei Ren this time to pay homage to Li Ke. If Li Ke really knew his talent and became his mentor, it would be his opportunity to become an opportunity for him to become an eternal person.

There was a conversation before afternoon, and Li Ke valued Pei Xingjian very much. Pei Xingjian saw it. In Pei Xingjian's opinion, Li Ke was even more popular. Pei Xingjian also saw the opportunity to revive the family in Li Ke.
