Chapter 73: New Mission
Although there was no strong armed confrontation on the way to Chenjiaji, the string in Chen Xiaoting's mind was always tight.
Now when I return home, I relax and lie down in bed before I get up at noon the next day.
When he finished dressing, he went out of his room and saw his mother Gao Erniang already cleaning up the table and chairs and preparing to eat.
His father, Chen Dayong, was chopping firewood with an axe in the yard, and it was raining continuously these days, and the firewood at home was almost exhausted.
"Big brother, you're awake!" At this time, Chen Xiaoyu, who was holding the dish, shouted.
Chen Xiaoting nodded, and then said, "Xiaoyu, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've grown taller again!" ”
Although he has only seen him for a few days, he has experienced a lot of major events in the past few days, which makes Chen Xiaoting feel that he has been a long time away.
It was about to be eaten, and Chen Dayong also collected the axe at this time, put it aside and walked to the main hall.
The second eldest Chen Xiaolin is on duty at the yamen today and will not eat at home, so there are only four people to eat lunch today.
After sitting down, Chen Xiaoting was pouring tea for his father, and he heard Chen Dayong ask: "It's been going well to run errands in the past few days, right?" ”
Chen Xiaoting's posture of pouring tea remained unchanged, staring at the spout and saying, "It's okay, but the surname Xiao has something!" ”
But Chen Xiaoting didn't plan to say more, so he changed the topic and said, "Dad, how is your shop doing?" ”
said that he would open a shop for the Chen family to earn an industry, but there has been no movement for so many days, and Chen Xiaoting is not his father.
I only heard Chen Dayong sigh and said: "The street has not been very peaceful recently, although the place has been optimistic, but let's talk about the opening of the shop later!" ”
Is Guangde Mansion really so messy? Chen Xiaoting couldn't believe it, so he asked again: "Dad, where is the place you are optimistic about?" ”
Chen Dayong picked up the teacup, took a sip and said, "I saw a place in Beicheng!" ”
Chen Xiaoting nodded, although he didn't say anything, but his heart was shaken.
It is said that the city has not been peaceful recently, but Chen Xiaoting didn't expect that Beicheng would be like this, Beicheng is where the powerful are.
At this time, Liu Yucai was really dead in Chen Xiaoting's eyes, and he couldn't bear the backlash of the powerful.
But Chen Xiaoting also knew that such a result may not be caused by Liu Yucai alone, but more likely that Xie Ping was stirring up the situation.
In fact, the matter of the infighting of the three talents is really not something that a small flag official can participate in, and Zhang Zhenshan, the chief banner, does not dare to end at will.
didn't think much about it, Chen Xiaoting just wanted to eat in peace now, and then just wait to watch the play.
But before he could eat, he received an order from Zhang Zhenshan to hurry over.
This is really afraid of something, Chen Xiaoting is afraid that there will be something tricky to explain at this time, and now he doesn't want to take it again.
But Zhang Zhenshan's order Chen Xiaoting could not disobey, he could only go to the yamen honestly.
At this time, it was already afternoon, there were not many people in the hundred yamen, and Chen Xiaoting did not meet two acquaintances.
After continuously penetrating the triple courtyard, Chen Xiaoting arrived outside Zhang Zhenshan's lobby.
"Subordinates, see your lord!" After entering the small hall on the left side of the lobby, Chen Xiaoting knelt down on one knee.
In front of Zhang Zhenshan, Chen Xiaoting still did his best.
After all, this Zhang Zongqi is not only his boss, but also his guide, like an elder to him.
Zhang Zhenshan was originally waiting for him, and then said in a deep voice: "Get up...... There's something for you to do! ”
Hearing this, Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but feel nervous, how could he arrange tasks for himself at every turn.
is so hot, it just shows that Chen Xiaoting's ability has been recognized, which is a blessing that others can't look forward to.
But Chen Xiaoting shirked and said: "My lord, my subordinates were really a little frightened when they broke their halberds in Chenjiaji a few days ago...... I'm afraid I can't do anything! ”
Who knows what tasks will be assigned to him, Chen Xiaoting naturally has to give Zhang Zhenshan a preventive shot first.
Zhang Zhenshan glanced at him, and then said: "In just these two days, there may be a large-scale fight between the two gangs of Sancai and ......."
"Xicheng is our territory, we must not let them merge with fire, this official wants you to bring someone to watch them!"
Sure enough, it was not a good errand, Chen Xiaoting said secretly in his heart, so he decided to withdraw from it.
So Chen Xiaoting said: "My lord, there are three small flag officers in our general banner, how can it not be the turn of subordinates in this matter!" ”
As if knowing that he would say this, Zhang Zhenshan immediately said: "Wu Xiaoqi was sick and bedridden two days ago, and Zhang Xiaoqi fell his leg while riding a horse yesterday......"
There is another Liu Xiaoqi Zhang Zhenshan didn't say it, but Chen Xiaoting couldn't count on it, after all, these things were done by Liu Yucai.
Chen Xiaoting is not stupid, knowing that Wu Ming and Zhang Chengfa are two old boys in order to avoid trouble, they will escape by pretending to be sick and injured.
"My lord, the three will be infighting, I'm afraid someone will add fuel to the fire!" Chen Xiaoting asked rhetorically.
Chen Xiaoting had heard Zhang Zhenshan say that the city was not peaceful before, and he must have known about the collusion between Liu Yucai and Sancai.
But what Chen Xiaoting didn't understand was why Zhang Zhenshan didn't stop it when all this happened.
Zhang Zhenshan sighed, and then said: "The key is that the three will have to fight, and those who are fueling the flames are just taking advantage of the situation!" ”
Now Chen Xiaoting understands that the key to the problem is that the three talents have to fight, not Liu Yucai who provokes the three talents.
"Of course, I also have the fruit of not being strict, otherwise I wouldn't be in today's predicament!" Zhang Zhenshan said helplessly.
Now at the critical moment, the three small flag officers under his command can't listen to it, what an embarrassing fact.
As the chief flag officer, Zhang Zhenshan's level is only able to talk to the three generals on an equal footing, but he can't simply subdue these people.
Chen Xiaoting was able to make Xie Ping soft before, one was because he didn't ask for much, and the other was because Xie Ping was weak-hearted.
Otherwise, how can you give in easily.
So Chen Xiaoting asked again: "My lord, Lord Baihu has been to Luyang for many days, why haven't you come back yet?" ”
After taking a deep look at Chen Xiaoting, Zhang Zhenshan said: "The Lord of the Hundred Households is going to Luyang, naturally there is something more important, you don't have to ask more!" ”
More important things, what important things can Lu Yangcheng have? Could it be the infighting of several adults in the Thousand Households of Yongxi?
is also more than that, although Chen Xiaoting just guessed at random, he guessed eight or nine without leaving ten.
After thinking about it, Chen Xiaoting asked again: "My lord, why don't you unite with Wu Zongqi and Liu Zongqi to reasonably control the situation in the city?" ”
Chen Xiaoting thought that his method was very clever, but Zhang Zhenshan looked at him with idiotic eyes, and then said: "The two of them have never been on good terms with me, and I am afraid that it is too late to see jokes at this time!" ”
Now Chen Xiaoting is really speechless, there are really rivers and lakes where there are people, and struggles are everywhere.
Up to the Yongxi Thousand Households, down to the Guangde Hundred Households, and then to the Sancai Interior...... The struggles between people are simply one after another.
Seeing that Chen Xiaoting was talking too much nonsense, Zhang Zhenshan was also dissatisfied at this time: "Why, you asked so much...... Do you want to continue to shirk it? ”
When it came to this, Chen Xiaoting could only smile bitterly: "The adults have orders, and the subordinates should obey them!" ”
Zhang Zhenshan's face looked better, and then he listened to him: "In terms of manpower, I will draw five captains from Zhang Chengfa and Wu Ming's subordinates to you, and you must control the situation in Xicheng for me in the next few days!" ”
At this time, Chen Xiaoting didn't dare to pack the ticket, so he hugged his fists and said: "My lord, my subordinates do their best!" ”
Zhang Zhenshan waved his hand, and then handed a list to Chen Xiaoting, which was all transferred to him.
