Strange Records of Xijing

"He's about my age..."

Isn't it almost the same, they are all alone, and the age can be different?

Zhang Feiran looked serious, but in fact he laughed so hard in his heart, all the bad water that was rarely stored in his stomach surged up, and he was ready to make a fool of himself as an apprentice.

Pei Jingxing still didn't know the "true face" of his master, so he continued: "He seems to have fallen in love with someone recently, but he dared not say it."

"Oh?" Zhang Feiran looked worried, as if he was the one who had a crush on him, "Why don't you dare to say that?"

Pei Jingxing replied: "Because my friend is worried that if he says it, the other party won't accept it, and he won't even be able to be a friend in the future."

"You young people, you usually seem to be quite energetic, and you are not afraid of anything, but when it comes to the critical moment, you actually get discouraged." Zhang Feiran shook his head unhappily, "I think your master is about the same age as you. When you like someone, say it, hold it in your heart, and expect others to hear your voice?"

Pei Jingxing was a little surprised: "I've never heard that Master got married. Who is Master's wife?"

Zhang Feiran was taken aback for a moment, and finally realized that he had dug a hole and jumped into it voluntarily. Of course he refused to say it, and asked instead: "What is the identity of your friend, and what is the identity of the person he likes? If he doesn't If you dare to open your mouth, then for your sake, I can act as a matchmaker for him."

Pei Jingxing never expected that Zhang Feiran would be so enthusiastic, he repeatedly waved his hands and said, "Thank you, Master, for your kindness. It's just that my friend is just an ordinary person with no name, and the family he likes is not famous, but in my friend's mind , that person is the best."

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, Zhang Feiran naturally understands this truth.He didn't expose Pei Jingxing right now, and continued to ask: "Then what does your friend like about him?"

"That man is very good. He is only 16 years old and his body is still growing like a stick, so he looks a little thin. When we first met, my friend looked down on him a little bit, but after going through a series of things together, I realized that This man was kind but principled, capable but never bullying, braver than anyone in the face of danger, knowledgeable and well-informed."

The customs of the Zhou Dynasty were much more open than those of the previous dynasties, and women were no longer confined to their homes.When Emperor Wu was in power, Princess Yuan'an, the eldest daughter of Emperor Wu at that time, even had a female guard with as many as a thousand people.

Therefore, Zhang Feiran didn't find anything wrong with Pei Jingxing's words, and he only thought that his apprentice was the daughter of the general who fell in love with that family. He secretly thought that according to Pei Jingxing's temper, instead of looking for a delicate young lady, he would find someone who is the same. It is better for a woman who wields a knife and a gun, so that in the future, her apprentice daughter-in-law will either be angered back to her mother's house by an apprentice who can't say a word, or be angered into illness.

Looking at Pei Jingxing's intoxicated expression, it can be seen that when talking about his sweetheart, he forgot the phrase "my friend".Zhang Feiran was very pleased, his apprentice had lived for 20 years, and finally he was enlightened.

Look, just mentioning his sweetheart, he showed a face of intoxication, isn't he completely in love with him!

Zhang Feiran felt that the heat was almost ready, so he decided to add fire at the end: "In my opinion, your friend's sweetheart is very outstanding. If you don't make a move, if someone robs you, it will be too late to regret it."

"No way!" Pei Jingxing blurted out subconsciously, and when he found out that he had revealed his truth, what he was facing was Zhang Feiran's face smiling like a mother-in-law.

"Good apprentice, whose daughter are you looking for? Tell me, my teacher, and I will go and find out the tone for you."

Hearing the word "daughter", Pei Jingxing's face turned pale, and he said discouragedly: "Thank you for your kindness, Master, but this matter is definitely not going to happen, let's forget it."

Zhang Feiran raised his eyebrows: "You are the only son of General Pei Jin and my apprentice. You have a face like a crown of jade, and you are a famous handsome man in Xijing. Messenger, in charge of public security in Xijing. I can't think of any woman in this world who would reject you except the princess. This princess is too young, and the only one who is similar to your age has already married. And I heard that these princesses are all Jiao Didi, how can you say that they are very capable?"

Hearing this, Pei Jingxing could only show a wry smile: "Master, there is no need to praise me. This matter cannot be accomplished. Today I was infected by the sound of Master's flute, and I was so excited that I said these words. Now, I implore Master Forget about it."

"Wait!" Zhang Feiran shouted suddenly, "Did I let you go? I haven't seen you in a few years, but you are so courageous! Do you know what you are going to face next? You haven't found the Holy Land yet, you guys You almost lost your life twice, you have such thoughts and restlessness, do you want to take the initiative to hand over your life to the enemy!"

Pei Jingxing shook his head again and again: "I don't dare. Master, don't worry, I will definitely not let the enemy take advantage of it."

Pei Jingxing concealed it in every possible way, and his attitude of not wanting to reveal the name of his sweetheart made Zhang Feiran suspicious.Although Zhang Feiran stayed away from Xijing these years, he did not become deaf.He sorted out the approximate ages of the daughters of those friends in the army in his mind, and he never thought that any family had a daughter who was about 16 years old.

Just now Zhang Feiran took it for granted that Pei Jingxing's sweetheart was most likely the general's daughter, but now that he thinks about it carefully, that description is more suitable for men.

Once he figured this out, Zhang Feiran only felt that the fog in front of him disappeared instantly.

"Is it Su Yan?" Zhang Feiran has noticed the interaction between Pei Jingxing and Su Yan these two days, and didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but now looking at it from a different angle, it is very suspicious.

Sure enough, Pei Jingxing rarely showed a look of panic on his face, and hastily denied: "No, it's not him."

Seeing his reaction like this, Zhang Feiran's heart sank, knowing that he had guessed right.

He was just about to reprimand him, but when he saw Pei Jingxing's shining eyes, his heart softened, and he didn't say those words.

"I know that after you have experienced that incident, it will be difficult to trust others." Zhang Feiran tried his best to soften his tone, and said slowly, "But you are only 20 years old, and you still have three or four 20 years ahead. Do you want to tie your future life to a man?"

Pei Jingxing was afraid that Zhang Feiran would punish Su Yan in a fit of anger.At this time, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and replied: "Master, since ancient times, marriage has been ordered by parents, and according to the words of matchmakers, aren't those people just tying their future lives to a stranger? Speaking of them, at least I know who I like and why I like him."

Zhang Feiran didn't know how to refute for a while, so he asked back: "What about him? Does he like you?"

Pei Jingxing smiled wryly and shook his head: "I don't know either."

Because Pei Jingxing lost his parents since childhood, while Zhang Feiran taught him martial arts strictly, he actually loved this apprentice very much.Seeing his apprentice's downcast appearance, how could he still say those heavy words?

"Do you know that this road is very difficult, even more difficult than the road taken by ordinary people?"

Pei Jingxing was startled for a moment, then nodded and said, "I know, but I still don't want to just give up."

Hearing this, Zhang Feiran laughed instead—to face difficulties, this is his good apprentice.

"Think about your usual reaction when you see Su Yan, and then look at Su Yan's reaction when he sees you. If the two people's reactions are similar, this matter may be possible."

These words were beyond Pei Jingxing's expectation, he stuttered a little: "Master, you...you...don't...don't scold me?"

"Why did you scold you?" Zhang Feiran laughed loudly, "Is it because you don't like women, or because you can't carry on the family? I was about to die countless times on the battlefield, and I escaped from the gate of hell, what else can I see?" No? In life, you have to live happily. If you blindly suppress your own heart and marry a daughter-in-law you don’t like in the future, wouldn’t that be harming others? I’m doing harm to the people, understand? "

Of course Pei Jingxing knew that his master was being stubborn, so he nodded repeatedly: "Understood, I understand, thank you, Master, for clarifying my disciple's confusion!"
