In the backyard of the Jiangnan Thousand Households, Chen Xiaoting was holding his bow and arrows, aiming at the arrow target in the distance.

In addition to Chen Xiaoting, there are four other people in the courtyard at the moment, namely the three principal and deputy thousand households of the Jiangnan Thousand Households, and Yang Kai, who is inseparable from Chen Xiaoting.

In the center of the target, two arrows have been inserted into it, and the tail feathers are swaying in the wind.

Listening to the sound of "whoosh" breaking through the air, Chen Xiaoting let go of the arrow string in his hand, and the arrow galloped straight towards the wooden target.

"Good!" I only heard a cheer from the courtyard.

Among them, the most enthusiastic applause was one of Chen Xiaoting's newly collected licking dogs, Feng Wengui, a thousand households in the south of the Yangtze River.

Although Feng Wengui had dissenting intentions before, it was also a choice made based on his own position, so Chen Xiaoting would not dislike him because of this.

Now that Feng Wengui sees the situation clearly and is willing to take the initiative to come over, Chen Xiaoting will naturally not turn him away.

On the contrary, it is precisely because of Feng Wengui's cooperation that Chen Xiaoting's opportunity can be perfectly executed.

From this level, the two are close collaborators at this moment, but Chen Xiaoting holds Feng Wengui's official hat, and the other party will kneel and lick him like this.

Of course, after this incident, no matter whether Feng Wengui is willing or not, he will be assigned to Chen Xiaoting's department on the side of the Zhenfu Division.

Feng Wengui's vision is quite far, so he is simply determined to follow Chen Xiaoting to do things, maybe there will be a chance to go to the capital in the future.

"My lord is good at archery, and my humble position is really an eye-opener today!" Feng Wengui applauded and stepped forward.

Chen Xiaoting just smiled and said to Feng Wengui: "You can try it too!" ”

Feng Wengui immediately said: "It's a trivial trick to be lowly, but you don't dare to show ugliness here to adults!" ”

However, Chen Xiaoting didn't listen to his explanation at all, and directly stuffed the bow into Feng Wengui's arms, and at the same time waved at Yang Kai, who was not far away.

Yang Kai immediately took an arrow and handed it to Chen Xiaoting, and then Chen Xiaoting handed the arrow to Feng Wengui.

This time he couldn't refuse, Feng Wengui had to take the arrow in his hand, and said to Chen Xiaoting very respectfully: "Then the humble position will be ugly!" ”

After saying this, Feng Wengui began to draw his bow and arrows, and everyone, including Chen Xiaoting, looked at the wooden target.

After aiming for a longer time than Chen Xiaoting, Feng Wengui's fingers finally let go of the bowstring, and then a whistling sound sounded on the scene.

With a "bang", the arrow landed on the wooden target, but it landed outside the heart in the middle.

If Chen Xiaoting shot three ten rings, then Feng Wengui is the eighth ring at the moment, and his results are not as unbearable as he said.

Chen Xiaoting first applauded and said with a smile: "Not bad, not bad!" ”

The two deputy Qianhu applauded at this time, but they didn't say a word of praise.

After Feng Wengui put down his bow, he bent down and said to Chen Xiaoting: "Your Excellency is too good, and this is how your humble position looks!" ”

"You have the ability and ability, and you will be able to shine in the future!" Chen Xiaoting said with deep meaning.

Now that he has sat in the position of commanding the minister, if he does not take the initiative to build his own faction, he will not be able to sit firmly on it.

"Thank you for the compliment!" Feng Wengui bowed and said.

He can be regarded as a blessing in disguise this time, he was originally treated coldly by the Zhenfu Division because of the taxation, but who knew that he had a backer in the Zhenfu Division because of this.

At this moment, I heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside, but it was a general flag.

After coming to Chen Xiaoting, the general flag knelt down on one knee and said, "Tell your lordship, the head of the Liang family is ...... He invited adults to come over to the house to listen to the play and drink tea! ”

Chen Xiaoting was slightly stunned, and then said, "Got it!" ”

After the general flag left, without waiting for Chen Xiaoting to speak, Feng Wengui preemptively said: "Congratulations, congratulations...... They can't bear it! ”

At this moment, Feng Wengui was even happier than Chen Xiaoting, because for him, it was a sign that he and his family were safe.

Chen Xiaoting smiled at this time, and then said: "The mining field of the Liang family is well arranged, and the hundred households below will be rewarded!" ”

Feng Wengui nodded again and again, and said, "This is natural, rest assured, the humble position will be rewarded to him!" ”

At this time, Chen Xiaoting said: "Okay...... Since the Liang family is invited, let's stop here today! ”

Immediately, Chen Xiaoting turned to Yang Kai and said, "You prepare, and you will go in an hour!" ”

Now the two families have a request for help, so Chen Xiaoting does not need to be convened, and the longer it drags on, the more anxious the other party will be.

About an hour later, Chen Xiaoting got into a carriage and rushed to Liang's mansion.

The reason why he no longer rides horses is for his own safety, and now he has offended too many people in Nan'an.

Soon, Chen Xiaoting and his entourage came to the Liang Mansion, and at this moment, the two core personnel in the gate were already waiting.

"See Lord Servant!" The captains and flag officers guarding outside the gate of the Liang Mansion saluted and saluted.

After letting everyone be exempted, Chen Xiaoting entered the gate of the Liang family, accompanied by Yang Kai and dozens of other school captains.

It can also be seen from this that Chen Xiaoting has no trust in these people in the Liang Mansion, which is why he brought so many people in.

The prevention is that the Liang family dog jumps off the wall, although the probability is very low, but it is not impossible.

Just as the Liang family suspected that Chen Xiaoting was a madman, Chen Xiaoting did not dare to give his life to others.

After entering the gate, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, except for a few dozen maidservants and the father and son of the Liang family, Chen Xiaoting did not see anyone else.

It's still the courtyard from last time, and it's still the stage that was prepared, but this time the place for listening to the play was placed outside the hall door.

The chair rests on five steps and is barely condescending.

After Chen Xiaoting sat down, Liang Jirong sat down on the side, and Liang Zhiyuan waited beside his father.

In the courtyard, a group of school captains stood with swords on their shoulders, adding a strong aura of slaughter to the place, making the legs and stomachs of the two geisha standing on the stage tremble.

But after Liang Zhiyuan clapped his hands, these people still had to sing hard, and none of these bigwigs on the scene could afford to provoke them.

is still a familiar and beautiful sound, Chen Xiaoting also has leisure at the moment, so he seriously appreciates it.

At this moment, a young girl walked out of the side of the main hall with a tray and a look of terrification.

Wearing a moon-white jacket skirt, coupled with a beautiful and delicate face, it was easy to attract Chen Xiaoting's attention.

I'm afraid that only a warm place like Jiangnan can nourish such a gentle and beautiful woman...... Chen Xiaoting secretly praised in his heart.

At the top of the tray was tea, and the girl looked like she was about seventeen or eighteen, stretching out her jade hand as white as a green onion, and carefully placed the teacup on Chen Xiaoting's side.

And Chen Xiaoting's gaze fell on the girl's face from beginning to end, which also made the woman's face appear red.

Throughout the process, Liang Jirong and his son were observing Chen Xiaoting's reaction.

Watching the woman leave, Chen Xiaoting turned around and said, "Outside of Liang Yuan, you big families are really all-encompassing!" ”

Then he swept his gaze to the stage again, only to hear Liang Jirong say: "If Lord Chen likes something, just say it!" ”

Chen Xiaoting smiled, his eyes still staring at the stage, and said at the same time: "Outside of Liang Yuan, what do I like...... Don't you know? ”

Here Chen Xiaoting is talking about tax silver, but Liang Jirong's father and son understood it wrongly and put their minds on the woman who was just there.

And this was originally a step for them to ease their relationship with Chen Xiaoting, only to hear Liang Jirong say: "Understand, of course I understand!" ”

After saying this, Liang Jirong glanced at the eldest son beside him, and the latter immediately went to arrange it after he understood.
