Example, we can configure the lookup list and show field for lookup field using the PowerShell below.
Connect-PnPOnline –Url https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/lz –Credentials (Get-Credential)
$listName="CustomList"
$fieldName="TitleLookUp"
$lookupListTitle="LookupList"
$lookupList=Get-PnPList -Identity $lookupListTitle
$field = Get-PnPField -List $listName -Identity $fieldName
[xml]$schemaXml=$field.SchemaXml
$schemaXml.OuterXml
$schemaXml.Field.Attributes["List"].Value = "{" + $lookupList.Id + "}"
$schemaXml.Field.Attributes["ShowField"].Value = "Title"
Set-PnPField -List $listName -Identity $fieldName -Values @{SchemaXml=$schemaXml.OuterXml}

If you want to add lookup field to new site, we can use Add-PnPFieldFromXml to achieve it.LZ_MSFT– LZ_MSFT2019-01-16 01:19:28 +00:00Commented Jan 16, 2019 at 1:19

You need add lookup list in another site, and then add lookup field to list in this site.LZ_MSFT– LZ_MSFT2019-01-17 01:35:29 +00:00Commented Jan 17, 2019 at 1:35
Here is documentation for Set-PNPListItem with examples of set LookUp or MultiLookUp values: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-pnp/set-pnplistitem?view=sharepoint-ps

The site that you provided is for insert data in column and not to configure it.KmDroid– KmDroid2019-01-14 15:52:19 +00:00Commented Jan 14, 2019 at 15:52

So you're trying to create a new lookup field via pnp powershell? While add-pnpfield supports adding basic fields, it does not support lookups (yet). See add-pnpfieldfromxml, which allows us to specify an xml schema. It's more work, but it supports the more advanced options. For an example of how to do this for a lookup field, see this answer.
