Chapter 039: A Child's Mind
"Where can I go without the palace?" Chen Dun has always asked himself in the past two days, when he heard the news that the palace was going to be reorganized, he was a little uneasy, and he had to consider where he was going, but he thought about it and thought that there was no more suitable place than Wei Wangfu, where he could eat and live, and it was very safe, and the only thing that made him uncomfortable was the fat ball-like little prince. Not only is he in a high position, but he can command thousands of volunteers to decide their life and death.
And Chen Dun consciously talked about his family background, he is also an official eunuch family, and he has seen the world, although it has all disappeared with his father's death. In terms of knowledge, he was enlightened at the age of three, and he was able to familiarize himself with the "Four Books" at the age of five; After the age of seven, he began to practice martial arts, although he could not do a hundred steps through the Yang, but he could also shoot an arrow within fifty steps, and was often praised as a prodigy. can lose the first confrontation with the little prince, whether it is momentum or cleverness, he is always looking for a chance to meet him again, but he seems to have forgotten himself, even if he sees his eyelids, he is very angry.
But Chen Dun now faintly regrets it, he made too much trouble in the mansion some time ago, and he has made the housekeeper in the mansion tired of him, and the old and weak must be eliminated if the mansion is to be reorganized, and they will definitely not say a good word for themselves if they want to stay, let alone take him in, and he understands that it is the wisest choice to stay in the palace temporarily, but the arrogance in his bones makes him unwilling to beg the little prince from the low, so he can only act at the opportunity.
After the selection began, Chen Dun planned to stay by his own ability, but the Senate Bureau and the pro-guard team didn't want to think about it, and felt that it was not a big problem to enter the guard army with his own ability, and if he was lucky, he couldn't say that he would be the leader of the team and the flag leader, so that he could go into battle to kill the enemy. But he found that the little prince's vision was too poor, and none of the selected principals had the ability to know people, they only looked at whether the volunteers were strong, whether they had experience in facing the enemy, what weapons they were good at, whether they could ride horses and drive ships, and they didn't ask what tactics of war they had.
As batches of people were selected, Chen Dun, who had nowhere to go, was a little panicked, and he had to recommend himself with a shy face, but those people didn't believe what they said about being proficient in bows and horses, proficient in the art of war, and having gone into battle to shoot enemy generals, but everyone thought he was bragging, and taught him not to lie as a child, and finally simply stopped listening to him and ignored it directly. At this time, he found that the only place he could go was the craftsman bureau that he had never considered before.
When Chen Dun turned to the side of the craftsman bureau, he found that the selection of people here was also coming to an end, and most of the remaining people on the field were orphans with the same psychology as him, and the standard of selecting people here was low, but it was not as easy as he imagined. The first is to enter the craftsman's work bureau at least to know the craft, and the second is to be no less than 20 years old. These two conditions are rigid, and none of them can be met, he was really a little confused at this time, is he really going to be driven out of the Weiwang Mansion in a gloomy manner?
"The guards all accept young people under the age of twenty, why don't you accept them in your craftsman's bureau, don't you say?" Of course, Chen Dun was unwilling to leave like this, and rushed straight to Zhou Xiang's case and asked loudly.
"Yes, we also have a craft, why don't you take us?" As soon as Chen Dun shouted like this, the orphans who had already hit the wall also clamoured.
"It's not that we don't accept this, but His Royal Highness's order is that the young and strong give priority to replenishing the protectors, if you don't believe it, you can ask, or you can go to the protectors to participate in the selection." Chen Dun is a 'celebrity' in the house, how can Zhou Xiang not know it, knowing that this kid can stir up three points unreasonably, so he does not entangle with him, but directly carries out the prince to drive people away.
"Master Zhou, we are also people in the house, you can be accommodating, although we are young, we are all skilled, and we will not eat in vain, accept us!" Chen Dun thought that if Zhou Xiang refused him directly, he would make a big fuss and force him to accept him, but he hit a nail that was neither soft nor hard, which made him embarrassed, so his eyes changed and he said.
"I don't count this, if you violate the military order, you will be beheaded!" Zhou Xiang stretched out his hand to gesture for the knife and said with a smile.
"The guards are even more unreasonable, they only know how to choose some guys who can only dance guns and sticks, and they don't ask about the art of war at all, I think Master Zhou is discerning, and he will definitely not drive us away." Chen Dun did not give up and continued.
"Oh, it turns out that you still know the art of war, it's really amazing, it seems that the guards are really blind and don't know how to be virtuous, I will definitely report to Your Highness!" Zhou Xiang said with a surprised face, "If I don't accept it from the side of the guard, you can go to the Senate Bureau to try it, there are all generals who are proficient in war strategy, well-versed in the past and the present, and discerning people, and my craftsmen are all rough people who work hard, you are really wronged when you come." Then the conversation changed and sent him to the Senate.
"You...... Are you a pastime? "Chen Dun is smart and clever, but he is always a child, where is Zhou Xiang, the opponent of a small official who has been in the officialdom for many years, he put him in three rounds, and when he reacted, people were driving him away in disguise, and he couldn't help but be angry.
"Where do you dare, our craftsman bureau can't accommodate the gods, so we can only ask you to find another job." Zhou Xiang waved his hand and said with a smile, but by this time, the fool could hear what he meant, and it was obvious that he didn't want to.
"The world is big, where can I not accommodate the master, I can live a good life without this broken palace, the brothers are gone, if we meet the people who defected to the palace, they will say that the people here are hypocritical, don't come again, maybe they will be driven away one day." Chen Dun saw that Zhou Xiang couldn't make sense here, so he had to resort to the last move.
"Okay, don't forget to go over there and get some coils!" Zhou Xiang was still unmoved, and pointed to the bookcase not far away, where the General Bureau set up a place to distribute severance pay, with a large box of copper coins, but no one went to collect it, only two boring bookstores were watching the excitement.
"Hmph, I don't want you stinky money." Chen Dun didn't reply when he heard this, but after taking two steps, he found that his brothers who were obedient to him didn't follow, so he turned around and wondered, "Eh, why don't you leave?" ”
"Brother Dun, we don't want to leave, we can still eat, drink, and live here." A child looked at Chen Dun and muttered.
"Zhang Ping, you are not righteous, Li Zhen and Tan Fei can't go!" Chen Dun pointed at the child and said angrily.
"Brother Dun, we don't want to leave either, my brother is still young, and he will starve to death if he leaves the palace." Li Zhen looked at a smaller child he was pulling and shook his head.
"What about you?" Chen Dun yelled at the other child again.
"Brother Dun, I won't leave, my mother has already entered the craftsman bureau."
"Okay, it's all unrighteous things, I ...... I'll go on my own! Chen Dun shouted angrily and turned his head to leave, but his steps were not fast, and he looked back from time to time to see if anyone had followed.
"It's okay if this kind of kid is gone, look at what has become of him in the house, or the children will have to learn from him!" Said the people who watched the excitement.
"Yes, at that time, he led the ritual, and His Highness didn't blast him out when he saw pity, but he didn't know how to repay him, but instead changed the toss of the law, that is, His Highness was forgiving, otherwise he would have been blasted out a long time ago." Someone looked at his back and said.
"Damn, if my son had beaten him to heaven, he would still be able to make trouble everywhere."
……
"Master, I'm not leaving today, see what you can do with me?" No one retained him, and all he heard was the accusations of everyone, which did not make Chen Dun feel ashamed, but it made him angry, and turned around and sat on Zhou Xiang's bookcase.
"Hey, why is this kid not ashamed? Say go and don't go. ”
"It's also sprinkled, everyone blasts him out, I can't leave if I don't want to leave today!"
"Okay, let's not make trouble, if he doesn't leave, just stay, anyway, there is no shortage of food for him." Just as everyone was about to carry Chen Dun out, a voice came from outside the circle.
"Your Highness, this kid is a black sheep, and keeping him in the mansion will bring the children badly." Zhou Xiang saw that the prince was coming, and hurriedly saluted.
"Oh, who knows how a horse can be tamed if it is disobedient?" Zhao Yu looked at Chen Dundao who was sitting on the table with a smile.
"Your Highness, you want to train!" Someone immediately replied.
"What if Ma Tailie can't be trained well?" Zhao Hao asked again.
"Your Highness, just put the horse ...... castration, the temperament will naturally soften and become obedient. A veterinarian just recruited by the craftsman team hesitated and said.
"Yes, Wang De." Zhao Hao's name is Wang Dedao.
"Your Highness, the little one is here!" Wang De, who was following behind the prince, immediately stepped forward.
"This king heard that there is a lack of a small yellow door to pour a urinal next to you, isn't it!" Zhao Yu asked seriously.
"Back to His Royal Highness, several Xiaohuangmen died on the way, and there have been no newcomers in the palace." Wang De is also clever, and he understood what the prince meant as soon as he heard it.
"Take him away and train him well, as the head of the Inner House, how can you do it without a personal attendant!" Zhao Yu pointed to Chen Dun, who was lying there, and said.
"Your Highness! Come, take him away. Wang Dexi said with a raised eyebrow, and immediately two strong little yellow men came up behind him and carried him away despite Chen Dun's struggle and crying. And the people on the side were also happy, they also saw that the lord and servant were acting, His Royal Highness wanted to scare and scare this unruly boy, and he didn't really want to give him to the gelding, but Chen Dun was scared to pee his pants.
"Everyone, listen well, the remaining personnel in the mansion will form an old battalion, which will be assigned to the inner government and managed, and those who insist on leaving can also go over there to lead the entanglement, but His Royal Highness will never leave anyone in the mansion behind." This is the end of the picking, Wang De stood on the high platform and shouted loudly.
"Your Highness Shengming!"
"Your Highness is benevolent!" …… As Wang De announced the last reorganization order, the mansion was boiling, and they all saluted the prince!
