Chapter 2: Talent

"What's going on today? This rebel ...... He's going to study again?" Thinking that Chen Zhengtai always refused to listen to persuasion, Chen Jiye was angry, and his body trembled, so that the cage he was carrying in his hand shook with a bang.

"No, no, today's son didn't take half a step into the study, and as soon as he was early in the morning, he asked people to call a few sows." Steward Chen danced excitedly.

"Everyone saw that he was behind the sow, and he was tinkering for a while, in broad daylight, in public, and he was still talking about what to raise pigs...... What else do you say about the pig and the man...... Cai Guoqing in the pig...... Alang, what is Cai Guoqing?"

Hearing this, Chen Jiye's body shook, and the fat on his face began to tremble, and then, a look of ecstasy flashed in his eyes.

"Seriously...... Okay, it's finally enlightened, I'm a father's walker, a son's pig, good, good, finally let my father's wish come true, this is the luck of my ancestors. ”

With his hands behind his back, facing Steward Chen's puzzled look, he glanced at Steward Chen meaningfully, and then he calmed down.

"Cai Guoqing, Cai, Caoye. Countryman, I think you understand. As for the celebration, it was meant to congratulate. Oh, you see, this means that Wu'er has figured it out, if he is a mediocre weed, it will be a blessing for the country and a blessing for the Chen family. ”

Steward Chen's body trembled, showing admiration, and he raised his thumb: "It turns out that Cai Guoqing means this, Ah Lang understands everything."

Chen Jiye raised his head, straightened his chest, and stepped over the threshold, leaving a lonely back.

Chen Jiye was very happy, so the next day, Chen's house was in the market.

Chen Zhengtai, who had not yet recovered his strength, knew that the Chen family was so huge.

The children of the Chen family with heads and faces are all here.

Chen Jiye is the descendant of the Chen family, and there are many children of the Chen family, and they all look forward to the long house.

Some of the children of the Chen family have a relatively hard life, and some have a good life.

Everyone heard that Chen Gongzi finally stopped tossing, and they were very happy, some of the people who came carried the cage, some held the brocade box containing the grasshopper, and some led the big dog, and they came to Chen Jiye to give a gift.

Chen Jiye's face was full of red light, and he looked at his son Chen Zhengtai dotingly.

Chen Zhengtai was almost carried here, this high-ranking friend was full, all of them were a group of relatives who he didn't recognize, and everyone was as happy as the New Year.

Chen Zhengtai can't understand, are these people crazy?

Chen Jiye said that Chen Zhengtai had not studied for two days, and ran to the pigsty every day, and all of a sudden, many uncles and uncles of the clan trembled with joy.

It seems that there is a person who Chen Zhengtai should call his third uncle stood up slightly, and said excitedly: "This is good, this is good, it is good to raise pigs, this pig is the same as the old finches, they are all human." Zhengtai, you can find your way back, I am happy to be an uncle. Don't you know, your father was ...... When following the first prince Li Jiancheng, a Xuanwu killing, our Chen family, which one of them is not frightened, lest Li Erlang become the Son of Heaven and will kill our Chen family. If you count it up, your grandfather followed Wang Shichong at the beginning...... Our Chen family, why don't we live in fear......"

He counted the ups and downs encountered by the Chen family in the past, and the big guys were silent, and the days when he was trembling at the beginning are still palpitating.

"Zhengtai is the grandson of our Chen family, and we will inherit the family business in the future, if you are still thinking about studying and becoming an official, think about it, if you encounter another accident, our Chen family is full, but we will really suffer with Zhulian."

Everyone nodded.

The third uncle stroked his beard, and then said with emotion: "So the old man has lived all his life, and he used to be the same as Da Langjun, always thinking about fame, wanting to do something for the world and make contributions." But then it went through several catastrophes. The old man has figured it out horizontally, people live in the world, two things are the most important, learn these two things, you can ensure a worry-free life. ”

Everyone looked puzzled.

Chen Zhengtai looked at this old uncle with white hair, and he was also puzzled.

The third uncle coughed, stretched out his first finger, and then said in a loud voice: "Lie down!"

Chen Zhengtai: "......"

The third uncle then stretched out his second finger and said, "Eat!"

Call.

Everyone was out of breath, and their faces were full of red light.

Well said!

That's right, what's the toss, how good it is to live happily, taking advantage of the family and the land left by the ancestors, as well as the mansion, and the beautiful maid, it is a day to be able to mix for a day, like those black herds who want to rule the country and level the world, don't make everyone miserable.

Chen Zhengtai looked at them and couldn't help but scold in his heart.

Made, a group of mentally retarded.

Chen Zhengtai is almost certain that this Mengjin Chen clan is very likely to be his ancestor.

In other words, he crossed over to his ancestors.

What is even more worrying is that Chen Zhengtai consulted his family tree in the previous life.

The Chen family, since the Eastern Han Dynasty, has been a wealthy family, once shined, but it continued until the Zhenguan period, the family began to decline, and then the millennium...... Although there are still few in the genealogy, there are one or two points of light, but more of them are mediocre, reduced to the bottom, and most of the people starve to death in every military disaster and natural disaster.

Now Chen Zhengtai has finally found the reason for the weakness of the family, and he dares to love this group of ancestors, so unenterprising.

No, you have to raise the pigs yourself.

This pig is well raised, and it can make a fortune.

You know, this is a beast that has been bred for countless generations in later generations, and it is many times more clever than the pigs of this era, which is an artifact.

If the Chen family wants to avoid the fate of decay, they must revive their family.

After the banquet, the clansmen dispersed in twos and threes.

The third uncle drank three rounds, his face was full of red light, and he suddenly called Chen Zhengtai in front of him.

"Zhengtai, Zhengtai, you will inherit the family business in the future, the net worth and life of the Chen family are all on you, you must fight for breath, and you must break the idea of studying and entering the office, and raise pigs and dogs at home, so that we can rest assured." Our Chen family supported the establishment of the crown prince, but it has long been a thorn in Li Erlang's side, and he would like to put us to death. ”

Holding Chen Zhengtai's hand, the tears were about to burst down again, and the third uncle suddenly choked up.

Chen Zhengtai's father, Chen Jiye, was busy supporting the third uncle who was crying to the side, and said heartily.

"Third uncle, don't worry, Zhengtai was ignorant in the past, I will definitely look at him in the future, and I will not let him do serious things, if he dares to act as wanton as before, look at Na Lao Shizi's "Spring and Autumn" and "Book of Rites", I will pump him!"

As soon as Chen Zhengtai heard this word, he slipped away and ran away.

He thought about his pigs, and first went to the pigsty for a spin, and a few sows were lazily wagging their tails in the pigsty.

Looking at these pigs, Chen Zhengtai thought to himself, the pigs of this era are really thin, these are all adult sows, they are actually as thin as firewood, I am afraid that they don't even have a hundred catties, I just don't know if it is useful to teach JING artificially, if they can give birth, it will be amazing.

That's right......

These people are so tossed, how much has this property been tossed?

It's too hard for me.

It's full of people who are eating and waiting to die, so I'll settle the score.

Chen Zhengtai slipped into the study, and he remembered that the study had the income and expenditure books of the account room.

This study is very large, and there are portraits of the ancestors of the Chen family hanging on the wall, these sad ancestors, have been very careful to run the family business, although every time they ...... It seems that they are all betting on the wrong treasure, who to support and who will die, your uncle......

Chen Zhengtai looked at the sound and smile on the wall, and seemed to have no temper at all.

He went to the bookshelf to rummage, the Chen family has countless books, after all, it is a wealthy family that used to be a poetry and book heirloom, but the account book, but he didn't find it, but ...... A letterhead, but it fell to the ground.

Well?

What is this?

Chen Zhengtai picked up the letterhead.

This is a letter sent by someone more than ten days ago.

It reads 'Report to Chen Yilang'.

This Chen Yilang is Chen Zhengtai's father Chen Jiye.

As for the councillor, he is a loose officer.

Chen Zhengtai recalled that his father was an old man in the East Palace and also had an official position.

After that, Li Shiyi Xuanwu became the emperor, and did not pursue the old people in the East Palace, but his father Chen Jiye was disheartened, and he also took care of his life, of course...... This official title of dismissal is still there.

Chen Zhengtai opened the letterhead, here, it was a dense small letter, thousands of words, the meaning of which was first a polite, saying that it was a long time to hear that Chen Yilang You take it as your responsibility to promote talents and introduce talents, and I have never met a talented person, and I hope Chen Yilang can recommend it to the imperial court.

Later, there are some articles written by this man named Ma Zhou, all of which are his own views on governing the world.

Perimeter ......

Chen Zhengtai's brain suddenly buzzed.

This man is ...... I've heard of it, in history, this guy didn't meet at the beginning, and even became a horseman, raising horses for a living, and then he was recommended by others, and was suddenly favored by Tang Taizong Li Shiyi.

Li Shiyi called this person a talent that has endured the heavens and the earth, and immediately used him, and in just a few years, this person was promoted to prime minister.

Right now......

It's now the third year of Zhenguan, and this week should still be raising people's horses.

I didn't expect ...... He has fallen to this point, and in order to become a leader, he has thrown books to others, hoping that others will introduce him.

Where is it so easy to introduce, those who are in high positions, they are afraid that they will not even look at a husband's submission, and they will throw it into the pile of old papers.

I think I must be desperate to come here, so ...... Even the Chen family, who was so miserable in the valve circle, he submitted a book.

It's miserable.

Hey, it seems like I'm so miserable now.

Chen Zhengtai's mind quickly began to move, if ...... I recommended Ma Zhou, which can not only show his face in front of the emperor, but also ...... Ma Zhou was recommended by the Chen family, and he must be grateful to Dade, after all, ...... The Chen family is his benefactor. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, it seems that the recommender and the referee have a personal dependency relationship, otherwise, why should people recommend you?

Chen Zhengtai looked down at Ma Zhou's article, in fact, there were many places that he couldn't understand.

But at this moment...... With a bang, the door opened.

Chen Zhengtai was startled and looked up.

But his father Chen Jiye was drunk, and brought in with Steward Chen and Chen Fu.

Chen Jiye muttered: "It's only been a few days, and you've come to the study again, bastard, are you going to be angry with your father?" Our Chen family can't stand the toss, now that Li Erlang is the son of heaven, will he look down on our Chen family?"

He rushed in, and several people behind him, like mourners, persuaded one after another: "Ah Lang, don't be angry, the son is just confused for a while......"

Chen Jiye stepped forward angrily, looking at Chen Zhengtai dragging a letter in his hand, and seeing that Chen Zhengtai did not see the Four Books and Five Classics, his face eased slightly: "What are you doing looking for letters?"

Chen Zhengtai sighed in his heart, your sister, whether the Chen family can turn over depends on this time.

He said, "Your Excellency..."

In the Tang Dynasty, adults were the son's name for his father, although Chen Zhengtai called it weird.

"Hmm......"

"My lord, this person ...... Our Chen family should recommend him as an official. ”

"What?" Chen Jiye was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed suddenly: "You are crazy, you know who this person is, this person is a husband, he has wanted to come to see his father several times, but his father has not seen him, such a vulgar husband, you still recommend him?"

Made, how did I get such a daddy?

Chen Zhengtai said: "But ......"

"Wait!" Chen Jiye's face suddenly changed, and then he ...... His eyes lit up, and he looked at Chen Zhengtai in surprise and said: "Son, I can't think of it, I really can't imagine that you are not only playing with pigs now, but also so smart and clever." That's right, why didn't I think of it. ”

"What do you think of?"

Chen Zhengtai felt that no matter what his father thought of, he would not feel strange.

Chen Jiye slapped his thigh: "Yes, yes, that's what it means." That Li Erlang became the emperor, I'm afraid that he has long been afraid of our Chen family, hum, he is now on the throne as the Son of Heaven, although he does not put our Chen family in his eyes, he is the most hypocritical, and tells people every day that what he needs most is the assistance of talents, and he wants to rule the world, so he must recruit talents. It is also necessary for the officials of the world to write and recommend talents.... At this time, if our Chen family recommends a man to go up......"

"Haha......" Chen Jiye stroked his beard and laughed: "Then Li Erlang has seen it, he must think that our Chen family has eyes without beads, and it is good to have eyes without beads, just to make Li Erlang feel that our Chen family has eyes without beads, the more he looks down on our Chen family, the more he will no longer pursue the old things, son, you are really thoughtful, for your father...... I couldn't think of it. ”

Chen Zhengtai: "......"

I'm so tired.

So what kind of courageous person is Li Shiyi, as for worrying about the old things with our Chen family? His father, in order to make a living, also fought hard.

Chen Jiye danced and said: "Fang Cai misunderstood you for his father, this husband...... What's it called, for my father, I also worship the court, and I should recommend it, right...... It should be recommended in your name, so ...... I just let that Li Erlang know that our Chen family is full of straw bales, haha...... Steward Chen......"

Steward Chen hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes."

Chen Jiye put his hands behind his back: "Immediately fix a note, recommend this husband, and invite that husband to come to the house tomorrow, the old man still doesn't see him, since my son likes this husband, then let this husband... Raise pigs for my son. ”

Steward Chen smiled and said, "Huh."

......

Chen Jiye said, happily, and was drunkenly supported by others.

Only Chen Zhengtai was left in the study with a confused face.

It's a bunch of pig teammates, and some of them can't be moved.

But......

Finally the matter of the week was settled.

I just don't know what kind of reaction Li Shiyu will have when he sees the moon in advance.
