Chapter 264: The Second Prince is Back
The military department of Shangshufu!
Shangshu invited Chen Xiao into the hall, and after taking his seat, his wife came out with a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl and saluted Chen Xiao.
"Master Hou, this is my wife and daughter!"
Shangshu introduces Chen Xiao!
Chen Xiao smiled and nodded, arching his hand.
"Don't be surprised, the little girl has admired Hou Ye for a long time, so she is so rude, I came out to see such a young talent as Hou Ye!"
The military department Shangshu said, touching his beard.
Chen Xiao smiled bitterly: "Young talent? Where did I get up! ”
"Hou Ye is humble, you are in literature, whether it is poetry, mathematics, or even astronomy and geography, you can be said to be the best in the Dragon Kingdom, and you are definitely a sage......
No, no, in terms of arithmetic and astronomy, you are far superior to the sages! The old man has also studied the teaching of Hou Ye on mathematics and astronomy, and he is shocked! ”
The rainbow fart of the military department Shangshu is extremely serious!
However, it is obviously really admired.
I only heard him continue: "However, this is just your literary style. As far as martial arts are concerned, I'm afraid, it's also a rare genius, at least, as a secretary of the military department, but in leading soldiers to fight, I admire you very much! ”
Chen Xiao smiled: "It's all praise, I can't afford it!" ”
Shang Shu's daughter looked at Chen Xiao with a red face and a look of reverence.
However, she also knew that such a character was only worthy of His Majesty's favorite daughter.
Even if she is the daughter of a court official, she can only ...... Just look at it like this.
I didn't even dare to say a word.
At this moment, the food and drinks are served!
Chen Xiao was not polite and ate it.
As soon as he ate a few bites, Shang Shu talked to Chen Xiao about some things in the military department.
is a bit similar to the work discussion, Chen Xiao also took this opportunity to have a good understanding of some of the situation in the military department.
During this period, the military department Shangshu mentioned the eldest prince several times.
This aroused Chen Xiao's idea.
The eldest prince guards the border passes, has military power in his hands, and has a relationship with the military department, which is normal.
However, being repeatedly talked about by the Ministry of War, Chen Xiao was surprised.
However, I didn't think much about it.
This meal, in general, was eaten in a proper manner.
It's no different from the first leader of the department and the second leader of the department to eat and talk about work.
But Chen Xiao understands that this secretary of the military department mainly wants to get into the relationship!
After being full of wine and food, Chen Xiao left.
After leaving, the wife of the military department Shangshu said to Shangshu:
"Master, this Chen Xiao is really good, so young, with the title of marquis, and the official position of three real powers, in the military department, second only to you!"
Bingbu Shangshu smiled: "What do you know?" Second only to me? People just don't have the title of marquis, and they are better than me. I have to look at his face, because his ability is too strong! ”
"In that case, sir, why don't you match our daughter...... With him? The woman said.
The military department Shangshu was happy: "What are you dreaming of?" Let's not say that he is already a Hou Ye, just talking about his ability and knowledge, our family is not worthy of others.
In addition, you don't know what is going on outside if you don't go out, this young master, people are the people that His Majesty's favorite princess likes, yesterday His Majesty has ordered that he will marry one day, and you let me rob my son-in-law with Your Majesty! ”
At these words, the woman and the girl froze.
The military department Shangshu sighed and said:
"This master came to the military department, combined with His Majesty's letting him be a concubine, it's not good, His Majesty plans to let this son-in-law also get involved in the military power......"
Speaking of this, he felt that it was wrong: "However, in all dynasties, the emperor tried not to let his son-in-law hold the military power?" Could it be because the Ninth Princess is His Majesty's favorite daughter, so ...... Trust? ”
He couldn't think very clearly, although Chen Xiao did not have military power, but sitting in the military department was actually equivalent to having military power.
The emperor gave Chen Xiao so much power, inevitably, for a purpose.
In fact, Chen Xiao didn't know anything.
After returning home, Chen Xiao went to sleep.
For the next few days, he was in the military headquarters.
Occasionally go to the palace to see Long Jiuling.
This day!
Chen Xiao has read many documents, everything in the military department, and the imperial court is still very concerned.
So, there aren't a lot of problems!
In fact, Chen Xiao himself was also puzzled.
What does the emperor mean by giving him such an important position?
Anyway, he had nothing to do, so he went to the palace, intending to talk to the emperor.
When he arrived outside the imperial study, a eunuch saw Chen Xiao coming, and immediately stepped forward:
"Master Hou wants to see His Majesty?"
"Hmmm......"
Chen Xiao nodded.
"Master Hou, Second Highness is back, Your Majesty is seeing him inside, and the slave will go to report!"
So saying, the eunuch went in.
After a while, he came out and said to Chen Xiao: "Master Hou, Your Majesty will let you in!" ”
Chen Xiao went in with doubts!
After entering, in the imperial study, the emperor was sitting.
On the opposite side, a man of twenty-seven or eighteen, wearing a python robe, stood there, but also quite imposing.
As soon as Chen Xiao came in, the second prince looked at Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao also glanced at the second prince, just glanced.
Immediately, he surrendered his hand to the emperor:
"Your Majesty!"
"Well, Chen Xiao, it's time for you to come, the second child is just coming back, the second child, this one, is Chen Xiao!" The Emperor spoke.
The second prince nodded to Chen Xiao: "I have heard of it, Lord Chen's reputation has been heard many times, and when I see it today, it is worthy of its reputation!" ”
Chen Xiao arched his hand: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince, too reputation!" ”
The second prince smiled slightly and said, "I heard, Lord Chen, you want to marry the ninth sister?" ”
"Exactly!" Chen Xiao said.
"That's really cutting my father's heart!" The second prince smiled.
The emperor sighed when he heard this: "The female princess is not left, you two, sit down." By the way, Chen Xiao, why are you here? ”
Chen Xiao originally wanted to ask about his plan to make him a squire in the military department.
But now, apparently, it is not appropriate to ask again.
So he said, "Well, it's okay to be idle, I'll come and see you!" ”
"Are you okay? Bingbu, are you idle? Like these divisions of the Arsenal Division, you should also go and see more! ”
The emperor said this very casually.
However, Chen Xiao understood the meaning.
The emperor did this intentionally or unintentionally, let Chen Xiao pay attention to the Arsenal Division!
Chen Xiao wrote it down and said, "The minister understands! ”
"Well, since they are all here, then, stay for dinner at night, the second child is running around to cure the disaster, and in the evening, the family banquet celebrates!" The Emperor said.
Chen Xiao was invited to participate in the family banquet, and it was clear that his daughter really planned to marry him.
"Alright, you two, let's go out first, I'll take care of the twists!"
Hearing this, Chen Xiao and the second prince left with their hands.
When they got outside, the second prince and Chen Xiao talked while walking.
"Lord Chen, it's so powerful, it is said that the third, fifth, and seventh are all in your hands, which is quite miserable. There are also rumors that you are ...... The prince's nemesis? ”
Chen Xiao smiled: "It's just that they did it against me......"
The second prince smiled, this was a warning to him.
If you go against him Chen Xiao, that's the end!
