"Dongdongdongdongdongdong~" Although she was turned away, Pei Ji was not so easy to give up. He knocked on the door again. As a result, after a while, he saw the maid just opened the door. When the other party saw him, he said with obvious impatientness, "Didn't I just say that my master and wife are not at home, so you should invite him back!"

"You misunderstood. Your wife's father is Pei Ju. My name is Pei Ji. Although he is a bit similar, he is definitely not the same person!" Pei Ji explained laughing and cryingly. He thought that Pei Ji was almost everyone in Chang'an City, but he didn't expect that he would be so difficult by a little maid. But it's not surprising that he was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and it was a little far from Chang'an City. It was normal that he had never heard of his name.

"Pei Ji? Pei Ju? Isn't really alone?" The maid tilted her head and repeated for a while, then confirmed with some doubt.

"Of course not alone, and Pei Ju is much older than me. If you see an old man with white beard and white hair next time you claim his surname to be Pei, then he must be Pei Ju." Pei Ji smiled patiently. The prime minister could hold a boat in his stomach. At least with his identity, he would not be angry about some trivial matters, but would be more tolerant than ordinary people.

"So that's how it is!" The maid finally nodded thoughtfully, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on her face.

"Then can I go in now?" Pei Ji said at this time, "The name was given by his parents, and he, the prime minister, could not change it, so he could only admit that he was unlucky. Who told him to have a similar clan like Pei Ju?

The maid across from me smiled sweetly, but then she said with a stern face again: "It's still not possible. My master said that those with the surname Pei are not good people, so whether Pei Ji or Pei Ju is not allowed to step into my door!"

After the maid said that, she was about to close the door again. Pei Ji finally couldn't hold back and immediately reached out to block the door: "I have important things to do when I come to find your master. If you delay, you will be unbearable!"

"Haha~, why should Pei Xiang beg for a little girl? Are you here to send the order again today?" But at this moment, suddenly, a long laugh came from behind the door, and then Li Xiu walked over with a smile on his face. It was a coincidence that he was about to go out just now, but he saw Pei Ji from a distance, so he joked with him. The maid just now was named Xiaoxia, who was the most eloquent, and that was what Li Xiu deliberately taught her to say.

"You..." Pei Ji was stunned when he saw Li Xiu, and then he realized that he was fooled by Li Xiu. He snorted coldly in anger, and then said with some annoyance, "Did you arrange the old farmer just now?"

"Uh? What old farmer?" Li Xiu said a little confused when he heard Pei Ji's words. He really didn't know what Pei Ji had happened before.

"Forget it, I came here for something important to talk to Li Ji. Wouldn't you invite me in?" Pei Ji saw that Li Xiu was not lying, so he shook his head helplessly and said, "He didn't want to stand outside the door and talk to Li Xiu."

"Haha, it's a coincidence that I was planning to go out for fishing just now. I wonder if Pei Xiangke is interested in spending time with me, a idle person?" Li Xiu smiled at this time.

Today, Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian did not come, while Qi Niang and Xiao Ya followed Yi Niang to learn embroidery. This is a course that Yi Niang and Princess Pingyang strongly requested to join, because in their opinion, embroidery is a skill that women must master since childhood. Li Xiu's reactions several times were ineffective, so he had to agree helplessly. But thinking about it is correct, in this era of extremely underdeveloped textiles, needlework and other needlework really need women to complete. After all, most men cannot be as brave as Dongfang Bubai.

"Fishing!" Pei Ji couldn't help but show nostalgia when he heard Li Xiu's suggestion. After a long time, he said with some emotion, "When I and Your Majesty were in Taiyuan, I would occasionally go out to fish, put a table of wine to talk about the general trend of the world. Unfortunately, since Your Majesty raised his army, I and Your Majesty have been busy every day. It's a pity that I haven't taken a fishing rod again for many years. Since you have this elegant atmosphere, I can also relive my old life!"

Seeing Pei Ji's agreement, Li Xiu immediately asked someone to bring two fishing rods and a food box to deliver them. He was originally preparing to fish, so the things were ready for a long time.

In order to see Li Xiu, Pei Ji turned down everything today, so he had enough time. The two of them came to the river and sat down, hung bait on the fish hook and put it down. Li Xiu knew that Pei Ji must have entered the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble, so he was not in a hurry to speak, but waited leisurely for the fish to take the bait.

"Li Xiu, I didn't tell Your Majesty about your wedding with Princess Pingyang last time!" Pei Ji was silent for a moment and suddenly said such an irrelevant sentence.

Li Xiu couldn't help but look at Pei Ji in surprise when he heard this. In fact, he also had some speculations about this matter. After getting married that day, Li Yuan did not respond at all, so he suspected that Pei Ji did not tell Li Yuan about this matter, and now he finally confirmed the matter from him.

"Thank you for your kindness!" Li Xiu was silent for a moment, and then he said, although he was not afraid that Li Yuan would know about this, and Pei Ji might have other purposes for helping them conceal it, at least he helped him reduce a lot of trouble, so he should still thank him.

"You don't have to thank me. At that time, I was in a dilemma. On the one hand, I didn't dare to deceive Your Majesty, but on the other hand, I was worried about offending Princess Pingyang. In the end, I finally decided to maintain a good relationship with the princess so that I would not have a good end in the future!" Pei Ji smiled bitterly at this time. What he said was the truth and the truth in his heart. However, people like him, the truth is only in his thoughts, and everything is to achieve his own goals. Li Xiu has seen too many such people, such as Li Shimin and the bearded guest.

"No matter what, Pei Xiang, you finally helped me and the princess. I will repay this kindness in the future!" Li Xiu said with a firm expression at this time. The grace of a drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water, which is also the life principle he believes in.

"You are too polite!" Pei Ji smiled when he heard this. In fact, to be honest, he even disagreed with Li Xiu's words. With his current status, he did not need any help from anyone. Moreover, he chose to support Li Jiancheng now. As long as Li Jiancheng ascends the throne smoothly, he will have the merit of supporting him. Not to mention, there is no problem in maintaining his current status. He does not need help from others. What's more, although Li Xiu is talented, he doesn't like to be an official, and he may not enter the court in the future.

"By the way, I came here this time because Prince Anlu mentioned something to His Majesty yesterday." Pei Ji finally mentioned the main purpose of coming today, and continued, "According to Prince Anlu, you have a crop called sweet potato here, which can produce a thousand kilograms per mu. I wonder if it is true or false?"

Li Xiu was also stunned when he heard that Pei Ji was coming because of sweet potatoes. He also regretted that he should have told Li Chengdao to keep it secret yesterday, but unfortunately it is too late now, but this is not a big problem. After all, Li Yuan will know about this matter sooner or later.

Thinking of this, Li Xiu pondered for a moment and replied: "Yes, there are indeed sweet potatoes with a yield of a thousand kilograms per mu. I can even tell you frankly that the yield of a yield of a thousand kilograms per mu is actually very conservative, and in fact it may be higher. In addition, the biggest advantage of sweet potatoes is not its output, but its adaptability. Whether it is saline-alkali land or barren mountainous land, sweet potatoes can grow on it, and they almost do not require too much manual care. Of course, the output will be affected. So if sweet potatoes are promoted, then I will no longer have any food shortage in Tang Dynasty!"

Li Xiu's words were like a heavy hit, and each hit hard on Pei Ji's heart, because Li Xiu's description of sweet potatoes shocked him so much. Such crops that are not picky, do not need to be taken care of, and have a high yield have only appeared in his dreams before, but if what Li Xiu said is true, then his dream will come true.

"You... aren't you kidding?" Pei Ji was shocked, but suddenly stared at Li Xiudao with a suspicious look. He was just now played with by Li Xiu. Although it was harmless, it made him have to doubt Li Xiu's words. After all, how could this kind of dream crop appear in reality so easily?

"You can also think I'm joking. Anyway, I can't prove what I said just now." Li Xiu shrugged and said indifferently. Anyway, he had already told the truth. Believe it or not is the matter of Pei Ji and Li Yuan.

"Then is it true?" Pei Ji said a little confused at this time, and was also a little annoyed. Li Xiu actually used such an indifferent attitude to the rise and fall of the world, which really made him unable to accept.

"Look, you will doubt what I told the truth. If you can't judge for yourself, you will be too embarrassed!" Li Xiu spread his hands again. He was too lazy to explain so much. Anyway, he believed it or not! But Li Yuan probably wouldn't believe it very much, otherwise he wouldn't just send Pei Ji to come instead of going there in person.

"You...I..." Pei Ji was also annoyed by Li Xiu's indifferent attitude, but he had no choice but to use Li Xiu. Finally, he had to shake his head helplessly and said, "Forget it, I will report to Your Majesty truthfully. Let's see how Your Majesty decides, but I think this is an opportunity for Your Majesty to reuse you. Are you still planning to give up?"
