Chapter 57 Resentment
Chu Zhiting came over with a smile: "Hey, fourth brother."
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "What advice can my ninth brother give me?"
Chu Zhiting said: "Miss Xiao from Duke An's mansion is really good. Fourth brother, you have to take action as soon as possible to avoid being caught first. This girl from Duke An's mansion is extraordinary. If it weren't for Duke An's vision, she would have been married long ago." .”
"Ninth brother, have you seen Miss Xiao?"
"I have never met her, but my father, mother, concubine, and eldest sister have all met once, and they all say they are a rare good match."
Chu Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows.
Chu Zhichuan came over and said, "I have also heard from my mother and concubine that Miss Xiao is gentle and generous in her behavior. She is in charge of the affairs of Duke An Guo's house and manages the family well."
"You are all engaged, the ninth and tenth brothers?"
Chu Zhichuan said: "We got engaged three years ago."
Chu Zhiting chuckled and said: "Lao Shi's wife is the third girl from Duke Shou's mansion. I have seen her and she is worthy of Lao Shi."
"Who is your wife, Lao Jiu?"
"Brother Ninth's wife is the youngest daughter of Mr. Weng, the official." Chu Zhichuan said, "Hey, I've seen it too. In the future, Brother Ninth will be managed closely."
"Nonsense!"
"Brother Ninth, I'm not talking nonsense. Sister-in-law Ninth is a well-educated and sensible person who has passed down poems and books. How can you be so reasonable in the future?"
"Your ninth sister-in-law is very virtuous!" Chu Zhiting said with a sweet look on his face.
Chu Zhiyuan looked at Chu Zhiyao with a smile: "Where is third brother?"
"I——?" Chu Zhiyao sighed: "The second daughter of Duke Kang's mansion."
Chu Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows.
Chu Zhiyao seemed dissatisfied.
"Oh——!" Chu Zhiyao shook his head: "She is very good, he is her big brother..."
Chu Zhiyuan hurriedly interrupted him and said with a smile: "I want to talk about something happy today. When will I start singing?"
One look showed that Chu Zhiyao was dissatisfied with his future uncle.
This is considered a family matter. It is difficult for an upright official to deal with family matters. It is best not to listen. It will inevitably involve privacy. If you get involved, you will often be a different person.
Chu Zhiyao stopped talking and smiled: "It will take another hour to eat, drink and enjoy yourself."
"Eighteenth Master..." Loud laughter came from outside.
Chu Mingxuan raised his voice and said: "Come in."
The thick felt curtain was opened, revealing two young men in the cold air. They had a strong figure, gorgeous brocade robes, and honest smiles on their faces.
Chu Zhiyuan could tell at a glance that they were from the military. Although they had simple and honest smiles on their faces, there was a hint of sharpness in their eyes, which suppressed the aura like a sharp sword.
They were obviously trying hard to lower their posture and show humility in front of everyone.
However, natural pride cannot be completely suppressed.
"Lao Hu Lao Song!" Chu Zhiyao immediately stood up with a smile and waved: "Come on, come over here and I will introduce you."
He pointed at the two men and introduced them to everyone: "My colleagues and good brothers, Hu Gensheng and Song Wantian, are all guerrilla generals. They have made great achievements and have stood out. This time when they come back, they will be promoted to the Military Yamen as generals."< br>
The two of them clasped their fists and saluted again.
For the sake of Chu Zhiyao, all the princes and princes still smiled and returned the favor with clasped fists, even though they did not take them seriously.
The two men raised their glasses: "We brothers would like to toast the general and thank him for his care and life-saving grace."
"It doesn't have to be like this." Chu Zhiyao smiled, raised his glass, and drank with them.
Afterwards, the two men picked up their wine glasses and toasted everyone.
Everyone drank with dignity.
The two resigned knowingly.
Chu Zhiyuan kept looking at the two people in the hole, and found that the two people were very concentrated and full of energy. They must have broken the first floor of the jade tower.
At such an age and with such cultivation, he can be regarded as a martial arts genius. No wonder he can achieve great military exploits and become a guerrilla general.
A guerrilla general is a third-grade military attache who can have many or few soldiers under his command. If it is not a false position held by nobles like the prince or the prince of a small country, he usually leads about a thousand soldiers, which is already rare in the army.
After the two left, Chu Zhiyao said with a smile: "Hu Gensheng and Song Wantian are both brave and clever, and have a bright future."
Chu Mingxuan glanced at him sideways: "When they came back to advance to the Military Yamen, it was you who helped them, right?"
Chu Zhiyao nodded: "Their temperament is still suitable for officials. It is a pity to fight in the border army. Why not come to the infantry yamen and contribute to the court."
"You..." Chu Mingxuan shook his head and said: "Be careful, I guess the censors will not miss this opportunity."
The most sensitive thing for censors is official promotion.
The most intolerable thing is that the promotion of officials is affected by external forces. Whether they are court officials or clan members, as long as they dare to interfere with the appointment, dismissal and transfer of officials, they will attack in groups at the slightest sign of trouble. Once this news is leaked, the information about the impeachment will surely fall like snowflakes on the father's dragon case.
Chu Zhiyao said: "I have a clear conscience regarding this matter!"
Chu Mingxuan snorted: "It doesn't matter if you have a clear conscience. The key is what others think. They don't care whether you have a clear conscience or not!"
Chu Zhiyuan met Xi Ni again and said with a smile: "Forget it, Uncle Eighteen, let's have some fun chatting on this happy day."
"That's right." Chu Zhiting, Chu Zhichuan and others all agreed.
So everyone drank again, chatting and laughing.
The Dazhen Mission soon came to mind.
"We'll be here in five days." Chu Zhiting put down his wine glass with a solemn expression.
The excited smiles on everyone's faces slowly dissipated.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy.
Chu Mingxuan and the others turned their attention to Chu Zhiyuan.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "I will try my best, and the outcome will be decided by God."
Chu Mingxuan said: "Fourth brother, you have no problem. The grandmaster can win, not to mention that Cheng Tianfeng is not a grandmaster yet."
Everyone suddenly regained their energy and started laughing again.
They saw with their own eyes that Chu Zhiyuan stabbed the grandmaster and was protected by two grandmasters. How could they be defeated by Cheng Tianfeng, an innate master?
While everyone was talking, a voice came from outside again: "Master Eighteen, we are here."
When Chu Mingxuan heard this voice, he said helplessly: "Get in quickly!"
A handsome young man came in through the curtain, followed by two handsome young men, like three jade trees standing in the wind.
After thousands of years and dozens of generations of improvements, the princes and princes all have good looks, either handsome or beautiful. There are very few who have ordinary looks, and even fewer who are ugly.
And these three handsome young men are even more outstanding. Not only their appearance, but also their imposing manner are upright and majestic. They have an indescribable spirit.
The young man in front looked frivolous, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Eighteenth Master, we toast to you."
"Ye Baitao, don't do this to me, I don't want to see you!"
"Eighteenth Master, I finally got you a jar of good wine and I'm about to deliver it to your house."
"...You guy!" Chu Mingxuan pointed at him angrily: "Hurry up, have a drink and leave!"
He turned to Chu Zhiyuan and said: "Ye Baitao, the second eldest son of Duke Shou, is Ye Baichuan, the third eldest brother. I have been playing with him since childhood, and he is also the brother-in-law of the tenth son."
Chu Zhichuan smiled.
However, it could be seen that Ye Baitao and Ye Baichuan had no intention of greeting Chu Zhichuan. They looked directly at Chu Zhiyuan as if they had not seen him, clasped their fists and said with a smile: "I have met the fourth prince, heard his name for a long time, and finally met him in person. La, what an honor! ”
Chu Zhiyuan felt their uninhibitedness, and seemed not to take the princes and princes seriously, and smiled without any respect at all.
Playing together every day will naturally dispel the charm, and you will feel that the prince and the prince are also human beings, and they also have emotions and desires.
What's more, Duke Shou is also a hereditary and irreplaceable Duke.
"Nice to meet you." Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists and smiled, his eyes falling on the handsome young man behind them who had always been arrogant and rude.
Chu Mingxuan snorted: "Song Tianhai, who are you showing off to!"
Chu Zhiyuan's eyebrows were raised.
Song Tianhai, the eldest son of Duke Kang, is said to be extremely talented and is also in the army, and is expected to become the second King of England.
However, there are so many people who are expected to become the King of England, and in the end there is only one King of England.
Song Tianhai reluctantly crossed his fists and said, "I've met the Eighteenth Master."
His eyes glanced at Chu Zhiyuan.
Chu Zhiyuan looked at him with a smile.
He could feel the hostility in Song Tianhai's eyes and found it baffling.
Song Tianhai's hostility shouldn't be directed at himself, but at Chu Zhiyao, right?
Chu Zhiyao had already darkened his face and stared at Song Tianhai coldly.
"Are you here to see me or the third child?" Chu Mingxuan chuckled: "Are you here to see it yourself or for someone else?"
"Eighteenth Master!" Song Tianhai said coldly: "Be careful what you say!"
"Hey, Song Tianhai, your temper is getting worse." Chu Mingxuan smiled and said, "Are you angry at me or others?"
The giggles kept ringing out.
Everyone looked like they were enjoying the show, their eyes moving on Song Tianhai and Chu Zhiyao.
