Chapter 295: Drinking Tea

Yongxi Thousand Households, the time is almost noon.

Originally, at this time, all the flag officials should go back to rest, or find a teahouse outside to drink tea.

But today is different, the new Qianhu Shen Yue summoned the officials of the general flag and above of the Qianhu Institute to discuss matters in the Qianhu hall.

In order to show their enthusiasm, several small flag officials had already arrived outside the hall of the thousand households, and were drinking tea in the side room at this time, waiting for Shen Yue to arrive.

And those who are about to be promoted like Zhang Zhenshan are not with these little flag officials, and they should come with Shen Yue.

On the contrary, Chen Xiaoting was the last to arrive, and as soon as he entered the door, he and Yue Menghao looked at each other, and then looked away from each other.

In the room, several general flags stopped talking and swept their eyes to Chen Xiaoting, with a look of fear in their eyes.

Chen Xiaoting is a ruthless character, and there are thousands of adults behind him to support him, although he is young, he is the most powerful.

I found a chair at random and sat down, and after a while, a lieutenant came over with tea and respectfully saluted Chen Xiaoting, who was more than ten years younger than him.

There were only five people in the room, Chen Xiaoting and Yue Menghao were obviously different, and several other people had some differences with him, so no one came to talk to him for a while.

So he could only sit, whether he took a sip of the teacup or not, it could be regarded as pleasant.

Huang Zhien continued to chat in the room, but it was generally quiet here.

At this moment, a person came in from outside the room, it was Liu Jianping, a small flag officer under Chen Xiaoting.

It stands to reason that Liu Jianping is not qualified to appear here, so Chen Xiaoting also has some doubts in his heart.

When he came to Chen Xiaoting, Liu Jianping whispered beside him: "My lord, the news just came, half an hour ago, Liu Da Scar found Zhang Wu, and there was a fight between the two sides, and Liu Da Scar was arrested by Zhang Wu!"

Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but put down the teacup, but he didn't expect Liu Da Scar to be so bold and dare to find it alone.

When he was even more surprised, when Liu Da Scar made his position, Zhang Wu dared to attack Liu Da Scar.

So Chen Xiaoting asked: "Has Zhang Wu found a backer recently?" ”

Liu Jianping glanced up at Huang Zhien not far away, and then said, "My lord, Huang Zongqi received five or two hundred taels of silver!" ”

Although this is not explicitly stated, the meaning is already obvious, which means that Huang Zhien is Zhang Wu's backer.

Huang Zhien dared to accept money, this is not strange, who would not ask for silver for nothing, let alone two hundred taels of silver.

"Okay, I know about this matter, you take someone to bring Liu Da Scar out, and I'll go back and talk to Huang Zhien!" Chen Xiaoting said indifferently.

Don't look at Liu Da Scar fighting and dying below, but it is a trivial matter to him, even if a person is killed, he will not be heartbroken.

There are many people in Nancheng who want to be on top, there is a big scar of Liu who died, and there are others, Chen Xiaoting has no shortage of people who are willing to give their lives.

In fact, when Liu Jianping and Chen Xiaoting were talking, Huang Zhien looked over here intentionally or unintentionally.

When Liu Jianping's eyes glanced at him, Huang Zhien felt a trace of hostility, although he didn't know where the hostility came from.

When Liu Jianping left, Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but look at Huang Zhien, but saw that the other party was also looking at him.

So Chen Xiaoting stood up and said to Huang Zhien: "Huang Zongqi, Chen has something to discuss with you!" ”

Although Chen Xiaoting used a consultative tone, it showed an unquestionable expression.

Chen Xiaoting's attitude made Huang Zhien feel unhappy, but after thinking about it, he still soothed his mood, it was unnecessary to fight with Chen Xiaoting, and he would only lose.

So, under the gaze of Zhu Zongqi, Huang Zhien came to Chen Xiaoting and asked with a smile: "I don't know what Lord Chen is looking for me?" ”

Chen Xiaoting pointed to the chair opposite, motioned for Huang Zhien to sit down, and then said, "One thing, do you recognize Zhang Wu in Nancheng?" ”

As soon as Chen Xiaoting opened his mouth, he mentioned his big benefactor, Huang Zhien couldn't help but feel nervous, and then said: "I have some friendship with Zhang Wu, I don't know what Master Chen has to say?" ”

In fact, Huang Zhien and Zhang Wu have no friendship, but Zhang Wu is willing to take the initiative to lean over, so he will not push people out.

first accepted five or two hundred taels of silver, and then hung his appetite without expressing his position, Huang Zhien was just to knock out more silver from Zhang Wu.

Facing Huang Zhien's cautious answer, Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but smile and said: "Lord Huang, Zhang Wu has been the helmsman in Nancheng for so many years, do you think it's time to change people!" ”

Zhang Wu gave himself silver, just to secure the position of the helmsman, Huang Zhien is in favor of this, so that he can increase a lot of income.

But now Chen Xiaoting said this, which made Huang Zhien a little uncomfortable, or it made him not know how to choose.

So Huang Zhien asked, "What does Lord Chen mean?" ”

At this time, Chen Xiaoting said: "The sixteen helmsmen of the Zhongyi Hall, I only installed two of them, and they are both in Nancheng, doesn't Lord Huang give face?" ”

There are sixteen helmsmen, and there are six in total, if Chen Xiaoting only places two helmsmen, then Huang Zhien has more opportunities to install three.

And Chen Xiaoting's words were also heard by several other people in the room, which made these people breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as Chen Xiaoting withdraws from competing for the three helmsmen, then the others will have one less strong rival, which is a situation that increases joy.

At this time, someone came over and said to Huang Zhien: "Huang Zongqi, I have also seen that Zhang Wu, it is not a thing at all, don't let him fall into the water!" ”

In addition to Chen Xiaoting, there are other people who come to persuade him to give up, when did Chen Xiaoting have such a good popularity?

But after thinking about it, Huang Zhien understood the secret, and it was not because Chen Xiaoting had the support of thousands of households Shen Yue, and these people were afraid of him like a tiger wolf.

Is Chen Xiaoting a tiger wolf? Huang Zhien will answer yes.

He knew very well that Deputy Qianhu Han Yu died in the hands of Chen Xiaoting, and the other party was just a small flag official at that time.

These are all secrets that Huang Zhien must hide in his heart, but thinking of this matter, let Huang Zhien know how to choose.

So he said to Chen Xiaoting: "Since Lord Chen has taken a fancy to a few streets in Nancheng, it is naturally up to you who will be the helmsman!" ”

"Although I have some friendship with Zhang Wu, how can I spoil Lord Chen's affairs because of this, Lord Chen can do it himself!"

Huang Zhien's words directly abandoned Zhang Wu, but at this time, Chen Xiaoting said: "If it was just me sending someone to reason with him, Zhang Wu might not be willing, why don't you send someone to persuade him?" ”

As long as Huang Zhien personally sends someone to persuade him, the effect will be the best, and he can directly make Zhang Wu die.

After Huang Zhien thought about it, he still didn't refuse Chen Xiaoting, and after getting up, he went out to explain to his subordinates.

Looking at the back of Huang Zhien's departure, Chen Xiaoting picked up the tea again, and felt refreshed after taking a sip.

The people below fought to the death, just to compete for a place in the city, but they didn't know that in the eyes of the "big man", they could change the pattern with a backhand.

Although he was just a general banner, he was nothing in the Thousand Households or the entire Ming Dynasty, but he was already a big man for the gangs in Luyang City.

Although Zhang Wu is strong, and his brothers can also dare to fight, but he still has to lose to Liu Da Scar in this game.

That's what power tastes like...... Chen Xiaoting said secretly in his heart.

No wonder so many people are desperately trying to climb up, this feeling of a few words determining the rise and fall of a force is really intoxicating.

As everyone knows, when Chen Xiaoting was thinking about this, Yue Menghao, who was sitting not far away, was also holding a teacup and secretly looking at him through the gap.
