Chapter 187: The Zhang Clan Comes North

On the way back to his hometown, Chen Xi pinched his fingers to calculate what he wanted to do, and finally found that there were really a lot of things, and there were many things that could not be handed over to Lu Su to deal with, such as getting married......

Originally, he got married in May, but he missed the time of the first battle with the Yellow Turban, and then he got the title, according to the comparison between the title and the official position, it is basically equivalent to the level of the secretary, so the wedding was postponed again, for this matter Chen Xi could only shrug helplessly, this etiquette in ancient times is really troublesome, but since you live at this time, you must abide by it.

Later, Fanliang sent news that when he married Chen Lan, he would marry Fan Jian together, well, this is wrong, he should marry Chen Lan when he should marry him, after all, Chen Lan is a concubine, and Fan Jian is the wife.

In the end, after calculating the time in a mess, Chen Xi could only reluctantly say that he would have to wait until the end of the year to marry Fan Jian, and the three books and six ceremonies still needed to be rearranged, and the elders of the Fan family would have to come to Mount Tai in person at that time.

The matter of marriage can be put in the back row, but the construction of a new library and the construction of Liu Bei's new home must be accelerated, because time is really running out.

Coupled with the rearrangement of household registration, population relocation, army adjustment, tax reform and a bunch of other things to do, Chen Xi's whole person was dim, although he had expected how difficult it would be to reach his primary requirements within three years, but when these things really came to his head, Chen Xi still felt that he was about to collapse, but there was no way. To advance by leaps and bounds, you have to have a solid foundation, can you do it without working hard?

"Zichuan, you can be regarded as back!" Chen Xi has just arrived in Fenggao. Liu Bei appeared outside the carriage.

"Gong Lao Xuande is here." Chen Xi said with a wry smile.

"Zichuan looks unusually tired!" Liu Bei laughed, turned his head to Hua Xiong and smiled, "Zijian, you bring the troops back to the camp, and I will set up a banquet to entertain you in the evening." ”

"Thank you, my lord!" Hua Xiong and the others arched their hands and said.

"Zichuan, let's go into the city and take a look, it will surprise you!" Liu Bei seemed to have thought of something sad. Then he pulled Chen Xi and said firmly, it can be seen that Liu Bei, who came back only ten days earlier than Chen Xi, seems to have experienced a lot of bad things.

"It looks like there's a lot more arrows." Chen Xi looked at the city wall and said, he remembered very well that when he left, there were dozens of arrow stacks on the wall of Fenggao City. And now there is an arrow buttress almost twenty meters on the entire city wall.

"You'll be even more surprised when you go in." Liu Bei looked a little reluctant, but he still kept smiling.

Chen Xi looked at the bluestone-paved road and the three huge iron-clad fans. The silver gates. The whole person was heartbroken.

After all, the city gate of this world does not rely on its own defense, but relies on the city gate order to maintain its strength like the ship, and the internal qi transmission of his subordinates is kept strong, and the layer of iron that is wrapped is meaningless at all, it is completely wasted.

"Zichuan, your face doesn't seem to be very good, isn't it unwell." Liu Bei's last glimmer of hope was also shattered, and he found that Chen Xi, the only listener, had a very ugly face. Just like Li You, Jia Xu. Liu Ye and others are the same, but they still hold on to a little hope......

"Xuande Gong, how much did you spend?" Chen Xi asked with difficulty.

Liu Bei stretched out a finger, and Chen Xi breathed a long sigh of relief, "It's okay, it's okay, it's indeed a wise choice for Xuande Gong to not have a major repair, and 100 million yuan is still a loss, so I'll just say, Youzi Jing will definitely not make a big basket." ”

"Billion dollars...... Liu Bei said with some embarrassment.

"You're not going to pave the whole of Fenggao, are you?" Chen Xi said with a wry smile.

"It's all paved." Liu Bei said in a low voice.

"Wen Ru didn't stop it?" Chen Xi felt incredible.

"I didn't mention this matter to Wen Ru, I thought it was a trivial matter, after all, neither you nor Zijing Jiancheng spent money." Liu Bei said with a wry smile.

"Xuande Gong, this sentence surprised me, how many times have you said it?" Chen Xi asked helplessly, estimating that Liu Bei should have told many people.

"I've said it to everyone who comes back." Liu Bei looked a little lost and said, he thought that he had done a good deed, and the entire Fenggao had become much cleaner and tidy, but he didn't expect that every advisor who came back had a dark face and a bitter smile.

"Zijing has never been out of his own house, and has been dealing with government affairs, I don't know that Fenggao has become like this, by the way, you haven't paid the bill yet, right?" Chen Xi covered his forehead and asked, it was too embarrassing.

Liu Bei listened, and sure enough, his face became a lot uglier.

"That family is so powerful, it actually did this." Chen Xi asked speechlessly, "There shouldn't be a family that pays a billion dollars to play." ”

"Xuande Gong doesn't have to worry about this, it's just a billion dollars, it's not that we can't afford it, it's a good thing that the entire Fenggao has become clean and tidy, although if I want to get it, I don't have to spend a penny." Chen Xi comforted Liu Bei and gave Liu Bei a heavy blow, but Liu Bei was not ordinarily open-minded, and he seemed to be used to being hit, so he laughed twice.

"Chen Zichuan, you are still so sharp-tongued, although I have to admit your wisdom." At this time, a female voice came from the side, and her voice was round and jade, showing wealth and glory.

Chen Xi and Liu Bei turned their heads at the same time, only to see a noble lady over thirty years old standing next to a luxurious carriage, with a warm smile on her face, although the words were aimed at Chen Xi, but she bowed to Liu Bei elegantly, "The concubine Zhen Zhang has seen Xuande Gong." ”

"Xuande Gong, this is the actual head of the Zhen family in Jizhou." Chen Xi understood everything in an instant, and then introduced it to Liu Bei.

"I've seen Madame." Liu Bei was slightly stunned, but he still said peacefully.

Chen Xi was helpless in his heart, this woman really held a grudge, she didn't salute him, how to say that he is also a marquis now, the marquis of the Han family is quite difficult to mix, and the worthless title of the Three Kingdoms period is completely different from the matter.

"Xuande Gong doesn't have to be like this, the concubine body is sorry for her previous clumsiness, Fenggao City is the most majestic city I have ever seen, I think Xuande Gong won't mind if I have too many hands and feet." Zhang's identity was very low, and he didn't see the domineering look he had last time in Jizhou.

"I also want to thank the Zhen family, Feng Gao can be so neat and clean, and there is a Lao Zhen family." Liu Bei said happily, sometimes his brain can't turn, but sometimes he reacts quickly, just like this time Liu Bei instantly understood what Zhang meant, and at the same time he had a good impression of the beautiful woman in front of him, all the mistakes he made before were taken by the Zhen family.

[I said that there is such a big family and such a fast move, but now the Zhen family does have this capital, half of the same shops in Jizhou are controlled by the Zhen family or light or dark, well, the woman is in charge, relatively speaking, it is easy to control a little, and it will be reciprocated. Chen Xi looked at the scene in front of him, and this thought involuntarily flashed in his heart. (To be continued......)
