Chapter 164 Sending People to the Northwest Barracks

Soon the guard returned again.

"Sir, our general invites you."

Jun Moye nodded slightly after hearing this, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Fortunately, his wife had a space and brought out all the things in the palace. He could also get some things with royal symbols as a stepping stone.

At this time, in the hall of Pei Mansion, Pei Yunzheng, the second-rank general of the Northwest Zhenjun Army, was holding a jade pendant and seemed to be lost in thought.

Although he had been in the northwest for many years, the Pei family had served in the army for generations, so he naturally knew that this jade pendant should be a jade pendant that only the royal family could wear.

But when did the royal family come to the northwest?

As Jun Moye came in, Pei Yunzheng looked at the face that was seven points similar to King Qin Jun Linfeng, and then he understood. He had met King Qin several years ago, and later he heard that King Qin's family was demoted to commoners and exiled to the northwest.

"It turns out to be Mr. Qin...Jun."

Perhaps he felt that it was no longer appropriate to call him the Prince of Qin, so he quickly changed his words and called him Master Jun.

Jun Moye bowed and spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

"General Pei."

Pei Yunzheng invited Jun Moye to sit down.

"Please take a seat, Master Jun."

Then he gave the order.

"Uncle Zhong, please get some tea."

Then he handed the jade pendant in his hand to Jun Moye.

"Master Jun, please keep this jade pendant. Although it has no substantial use now, it should be different for you, Master Jun."

Upon hearing this, Jun Moye smiled and reached out to take the jade pendant.

“It does mean something different to me, but being able to meet General Pei with this jade pendant is also an honor for this jade pendant.”

Soon the butler brought up hot tea.

Pei Yunzheng did not put on airs, but poured tea for Jun Moye.

"Master Jun, I don't know why you came to see me."

Jun Moye calmly reached out and took the teacup.

"It may be a bit abrupt for me to come to General Pei's place so late, but I think you have already guessed my current identity, General Pei. I came so late to avoid causing trouble for you."

Pei Yunzheng smiled and spoke after hearing this.

"Master Jun, we military commanders are all straightforward people. We like to speak directly and don't like to beat around the bush. Master Jun, have you encountered any difficulties? If this general can help, I will definitely not refuse."

Jun Moye smiled and took a sip of tea after hearing this.

"General Pei, please rest assured. If I really encounter difficulties in the future, I will definitely seek help from you. However, I came here this time because I was asked to do so. I just met you with the jade pendant I wore when I was the Prince of Qin. Now, I will chat with you for a few more words with the jade pendant."

As he spoke, he took off the dragon pendant from his waist and handed it to Pei Yunzheng.

Pei Yunzheng looked at the jade pendant, which was completely different from the one he had just seen. When he saw the words "I am here in person" on it, he hurriedly stood up, knelt on one knee and bowed.

"General Pei Yunzheng pays homage to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."

Jun Moye hurriedly stood up and helped the man up.

"General Pei, please don't be so polite. It's just a jade pendant given to me by my royal grandfather. Why should General Pei be so polite?"

Pei Yunzheng sat down somewhat awkwardly. He had just threatened that people could come to him if they encountered difficulties, but now he had made a joke. After all, with this dragon pendant, Young Master Jun's future life should be smooth sailing.

"Does Master Jun have any instructions?"

Jun Moye sighed and spoke.

"It's not really an order. I just said it, I was entrusted by someone."

Facing Pei Yunzheng's puzzled expression, Jun Moye spoke slowly.

"General Pei, to be honest, when I arrived in the northwest, I asked around about the personalities and military tactics of several generals there. Only you, General Pei, are praised endlessly by the people. My grandfather has been getting older these years, and his health is not very good. When he was in the imperial city, he asked me to take care of him several times.

Until my royal grandfather fell seriously ill, but few people knew about this, so he sent our Qin Wangfu family to the northwest. When I left, my royal grandfather met with me alone and said that he had been emperor for decades, and now he was most worried about two issues. One was the succession of the new emperor, and he was worried about his other sons in the future...

The second one is about the northwest. The northwest is connected to the warlike and ambitious northern wing. Wars of varying sizes occur from time to time. General Pei, you have worked hard to guard it over the years.

But people will gradually grow old. General Pei, you have fought against the Northern Wing many times over the years and have suffered many injuries. Grandfather Huang hopes that the Northwest will have more young and promising soldiers so that when the Northern Wing invades in the future, we in the Northwest will have soldiers and generals available.

When Pei Yunzheng heard that the emperor knew about his efforts and was so worried about the northwest, he spoke hurriedly.

"Master Jun, I'm sorry to have caused His Majesty to worry. It's our fault. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, we have been training soldiers all these years and recruiting continuously, training new centurions, thousand-man commanders, even ten-thousand-man commanders, and generals below the third rank. If the Northern Wing dares to attack, we will surely defeat them."

Jun Moye smiled and spoke after hearing this.

"With General Pei's words, Grandfather is relieved. I've heard that General Pei is very good at leading troops. When I went hunting in the mountains before, I met a young man fighting a tiger. I think if this young man can join the Northwest Barracks and receive General Pei's guidance, he will definitely serve Tianyuan in the future."

General Pei suddenly understood what was going on. It turned out that Young Master Jun wanted to send people to the barracks.

"A young man who fights tigers is a rare talent. I wonder if the young master can bring him here."

Jun Moye shook his head slightly after hearing this.

"No, I haven't had much contact with him. The first time I met him, I saw him fighting a tiger. Later, I saw him working as a waiter at Yuelai Tower. I couldn't help but feel it was a pity that such a talented person didn't serve the court. In addition, my grandfather has always been worried about the lack of soldiers in the northwest. I also heard that General Pei is an upright person, dedicated to defending the northwest, and has good command of troops. That's why I thought of introducing him to General Pei."

Isn't this his own man? Pei Yunzheng looked at Jun Moye in surprise and finally spoke.

"Where is the person that Mr. Jun is talking about?"

Jun Moye picked up the teacup and spoke with a smile.

"I've made some inquiries about this person. He's Li Xiao from Banshan Village. If General Pei is interested, just send someone to bring him to the barracks. You don't need to tell him who introduced him."

Pei Yunzheng was even more surprised after hearing this.

"Master Jun, you're helping him so much, aren't you going to let him know?"

Jun Moye smiled, took a sip of tea, and then put the cup down.

"I'm not doing this to help him. It's just that Grandfather has always loved me. He sent me to the Northwest and worried so much about me at such an old age. Now that I can find one or two useful talents to recommend to General Pei, it can be considered as doing something for Grandfather. It can be regarded as fulfilling my filial piety to him."
