The Zhao Mansion of the Prime Minister of the Kingdom is located in the northwest of Junshan City, a rather magnificent mansion, and the prestige of this Zhao Mansion in the hearts of the people of Chu is second only to the Chu Palace.

It is recognized as the first family of Chudi.

Zhaoyong, as an old minister who followed the old King of Chu from a young age, not only has deep qualifications in the Chu Palace, but also has a lot of achievements for the Chu Palace.

Especially after the change of Luocheng, the situation in the world is turbulent, and the local heroes and powers are rising, at this critical time, Zhaoyong offered a key strategy, he let the old Chu king Shangshu Emperor Wen respect the king of the East China Sea as the generalissimo of the Chinese and foreign soldiers and horses, in exchange for the temporary tranquility of the northern part of Chu, and then the king of Langya in the east, the king of Chengdu in the west, and then use two-thirds of the military strength of the palace of Chu to seize Jiaozhou with lightning speed, and strengthen the power of the palace of Chu in one fell swoop.

The old minister Zhaoyong often advertised himself as a Confucian scholar who practiced the royal way, but this skill was more like that of a vertical and horizontal strategist who could move the fortunes of the world.

After that, the major family forces in Chu no longer dared to despise this old man who was over the age of six.

The old king of Chu did not treat this old minister who had followed him for many years, first made Zhaoyong the head of the hundred officials in Chu, and then let Zhaoyong's eldest son Zhaoming make the Junshan City Order, responsible for the safety of a city. He also gave the mansion slaves, not to mention all kinds of rare treasures, gold and silver goods, and the most important thing is that the old king of Chu married his eldest daughter Jun Lan Weng to Zhaoyong's eldest son Zhaoming, which shows how unusual the old Chu king's favor to this old minister is.

The people of Chu often say that Chu has a Zhao Mansion and a Wu Jing Mansion, and one article and one martial arts have to ensure the safety of the Chu side.

Today, after the old minister Zhaoyong came back from the palace meeting, he has been staying in the study room in the palace, looking at the books, people are old, and they are the most prone to sleepiness.

In the study, only a slender maid of the flower season was waiting.

In Chudi in February, once the sky is cloudy, it will be cold, as if it has returned to the biting cold winter weather.

Zhaoyong's study is divided into two rooms, inside and outside, the middle is separated by a lattice shelf, on which are placed all kinds of porcelain, jade carvings, inkstones and other exquisite ornaments, except for a wall with a window is empty, the other walls are lined with bookshelves, which are filled with stacks of books.

The inside of the study is where Zhaoyong usually handles affairs, and ordinary people can't go in casually, and the outside room is where Zhaoyong drinks tea and reads.

The maid burned the stove vigorously, and warmed a pot of tea beside the stove, so that she could add hot tea to Zhao Yong, who was half-lying on a wicker chair reading a book, and if the incense burner on the desk was finished, she quietly got up and went to change it. When she had nothing to do, the maid of the flower season supported her head with one hand and looked at the peach blossoms blooming in the courtyard outside with a pair of big eyes.

Zhaoyong looked at the book for a while, felt a little tired, so he put the hand holding the book on his stomach, put the other hand on the hand holding the book, closed his eyes, slowly fell into a daze, and dreamed of a young man.

An old gray-haired butler walked into the study with gentle steps, first glanced at the maid of the flower season, and then whispered twice to Zhaoyong on the rattan chair.

Years of vigilant habits have made the old minister Zhaoyong's sleep very shallow, as long as there is some movement, he will wake up from his dream, therefore, Zhaofu has made a rule, as long as Zhaoyong is sleeping, there is no noise in the room.

Once, a new maid did not know this rule, and when she was waiting for the old minister Zhaoyong to take a nap, she made a noise in the room, which woke up the old minister who had fallen asleep, and was reprimanded by the old minister on the spot, and then never saw the poor maid in Zhaofu again.

Lao Xiangguo snorted a few times in his mouth, slowly opened his eyes, his face became a little unkind because of the interruption of his sweet dream, and when he saw that it was the old housekeeper in the house who woke him up, he put away the gloomy color on his face, and asked in a tone that was still a little unhappy: "What happened? ”

"Master, no, the second son was injured in the Drunken Wind Building. Although the old housekeeper saw Zhaoyong's unhappy face, he couldn't care so much, and said anxiously.

The slender maid of Hua Ji came over to help the old minister Zhaoyong sit up, Zhaoyong squinted at the maid of Hua Ji after sitting down, and handed her the book in his hand, the unhappiness caused by the interruption of his sleep had been put away by him, only to see him ask in a calm tone: "Who beat Hua'er?"

The old housekeeper took a step forward and said with a sad face: "It was beaten by a person named Zhao Yi, the second son was not lightly injured, there were several injuries on his body, and the most serious was that his left hand was broken." ”

The old minister Zhaoyong suddenly reached out and slapped it heavily on the armrest of the rattan chair, and a pair of eyes wrapped in wrinkles shot a terrifying gaze, and a majesty of the superior emanated from the old minister.

The maid was trembling with fright, and the old housekeeper unconsciously took a step back, the last time the old minister was so angry was four years ago.

"I told the doorman in the house to go down, and I said that I said it, who can bring that Zhao Yi to me with a cripple, I will be rewarded. I don't care who he is or what background he has, if he dares to cut off one of my son's hands, I will destroy his limbs. ”

The old housekeeper was shocked, and said hesitantly: "But ......"

The old man suddenly turned his head, stared at the old butler's eyes, showed a terrifying fierce light, and said coldly: "But what?"

The old housekeeper hurriedly bowed his head and explained with a look of trepidation: "The old slave went to find out, that Zhao Yi was brought back by Jing Lan, the eldest lady of the Jing family, and he is currently living in Jing Mansion, and there are ...... And the old King of Chu seems to know this Zhao Yi too, and has already sent Du Huangting to take Zhao Yi into the palace. ”

After listening to the words of the old housekeeper in the house, the old minister suddenly became silent, although he put away the angry look on his face, but his eyes became cloudy, like an old wolf lurking and waiting for the hunting opportunity.

"Fu Lao, you send someone to secretly investigate the origin of this Zhao Yi, what is his relationship with the old King of Chu and Jingfu. ”

When the old minister said this, his expression had become calm, but the old butler, who was called Fu Lao, knew that once his old master showed this expression, it would prove that he had made a decision in his heart.

The old butler replied respectfully: "Yes, the old slave will do it." ”

"Also, tell Ming'er to go home immediately. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

It didn't take long for the matter of the Drunken Wind Building to be known to all over Junshan City, and Zhao Yi could be said to have become famous in a fight.

Some rejoice, others sorrow.

Some people are waiting to see a good show, and some people are waiting to make a good show for others to see.

When he saw Bing Gong, the housekeeper of Jing Mansion, he explained his intention, and when Bing Gong heard that he was Zhao Yi's friend, he did not embarrass him, and personally took Sun Jingluo to Zhao Yi's residence, and instructed his subordinates to prepare meals for him.

Sun Jingluo knew Jingfu before, and he admired the military family in Chudi very much, but before this, he didn't know anything about Zhao Yi, and he didn't know what the relationship between Zhao Yi and Jingfu was.

However, for Sun Jingluo, who is already penniless, the most important thing at this moment is to have a meal to fill his stomach and a room to shelter from the wind and rain, as for the rest, it is a problem that he will only consider after he survives.

When Bing Gong went to report Sun Jingluo's matter to Jing Hu, Jing Hu was talking about the Drunken Wind Building with his two sons and daughters in the side hall.

Jinglan heard that Zhao Yi had brought another friend to the mansion to eat and drink for nothing, and her face suddenly sank, and she frowned and said: "This kid doesn't see the outside at all, and he actually took it upon himself to lead outsiders to live in Jingfu." ”

Jing Song glanced at his sister who was frowning, and then asked Bing Gong, "Do you know what the origin of this Sun Jingluo is?"

Bing Gong shook his head and said, "The old slave has never heard of this person, and he looks like a scholar. ”

Jinghu lowered his head and took a sip of tea, then flicked his sleeves and said, "Binggong, you have to entertain this Sun Jingluo first, don't neglect the guests, as long as this person doesn't make trouble, don't worry about him." ”

"Yes, sir, the old slave has stepped back. Bing Gong bowed slightly.

Jing Hu bowed his head slightly at Bing Gong, and after seeing Bing Gong turn to leave, he turned his head to look at Jing Song, who was sitting in the left-hand seat, "Song'er, you mean that Zhao Yi didn't say anything about joining the scout camp on the spot, right?"

"Yes, father, he said to think about it. Jing Song responded.

Jing Hu nodded slightly, and said as if talking to himself: "What is the relationship between the old Chu King and this Zhao Yi? Why did you name Zhao Yi to join the scout camp? The two are by no means as simple as just one side. ”

"Father, what did you say that the old King of Chu called Zhao Yi into the palace?" asked Jinglan.

Jinghu still shook his head, his face was a little dazed, and said: "I don't know for my father, Lan'er, from this moment on, you always pay attention to the movements of the old Chu King and Zhao Yi, and tell me immediately as soon as there is a situation." ”

Jinglan nodded in agreement, and then asked, "Father, how should I deal with the matter of the Drunken Wind Building?"

Jing Hu smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, since the old King of Chu also took Zhao Yi into the palace after the incident in the Zuifeng Building, it means that the old King of Chu will not care, you just need to pay attention to the movements of the Zhao Mansion at all times, with the heart of the old country, you will not let Zhao Yi go." ”

Jing Lan snorted coldly, and said with some schadenfreude: "I want to see how that kid should deal with the situation in front of him." ”

Jing Song, who was sitting opposite Jing Lan, smiled slightly, after this drunken wind building incident, he had a good impression of Zhao Yi, who had only met twice.

He didn't look down on Zhao Yi before, because he felt that this person was bloodless, but now it seems that he has lost his eyes, and he dares to face so many families alone, and with this guts, he is a very qualified scout soldier.
