Chapter 396: Not Greedy

Lechang's question stumped Chen Ji all of a sudden.

Sighing deeply, Chen Ji said in a low voice: "According to what you said, is my father not only unable to punish Li Shizhong, but also has to give him an official promotion?" ”

After a pause, Chen Ji's expression was full of worry: "Now Li Xinchen is already a general of Dangkou, if he defeats the entire Bashu again, can he still control it?" ”

Le Changxiu frowned slightly, and already understood what Chen Ji was really worried about. As an iron-blooded monarch who came out of the battlefield, Chen Ji has never been stingy with giving soldiers promotions and rewards, and the previous title of Xiao Maha as a hussar general is a typical example.

Chen Ji hesitated on the reward of the Battle of Bashu this time, the point is that Li Xinchen has made too many merits now, according to his merits this time, how can he be promoted to another level, so that he can only rise to the rank of General Wu Yi, who is relatively high among the miscellaneous generals, and once Li Xinchen takes Shu County in the future, won't he have to rise to the general of the four towns?

At that time, Li Xinchen was not yet twenty-five years old, and the twenty-five-year-old general of the Four Towns was shocking enough. And who knows if Li Xinchen will make a splashing contribution after this, and will he still care about the reward at that time?

Chen Xuan didn't dare to reward Li Xinchen, because Li Xinchen was unexpectedly young.

And it is never a good thing for a king to be old and a general to be young. How did the subversion of the dynasties of the Northern and Southern Dynasties happen over the years, Chen Ji knew very well in his heart. Counting it, Nan Chen is already the king of the Southern Dynasty in the past dynasties, and there are enough generations of royal inheritance, Chen Ji doesn't want all the inheritance to be cut off here.

Le Chang wanted to explain for Li Xinchen, but thinking of Li Xinchen's emotions in the Huarong Dao Valley at that time, Le Chang didn't dare to say it.

What is going on in the heart of this man who makes him love and hate, I'm afraid only he knows.

"Father's worry about his daughter can also speculate on one or two without permission, but his daughter has talked with General Dangkou many times, and General Dangkou is not a frivolous person," Le Chang said slowly, "And now that General Dangkou is still young, my father might as well just reward him and not give it away, which can be regarded as a merit." Presumably, this kind of disposal can also convince the public. ”

"Reward or not?" Chen Ji frowned, "That's all it can be." ”

And he sighed deeply in his heart, he didn't expect that he had galloped across the field and crisscrossed the court for most of his life, but when he was old, he would be helpless against a young boy.

A deep sense of powerlessness flooded over Chen's heart. Thinking of something, Chen Ji then looked at Lechang: "Speaking of which, in addition to winning the credit of Ba County, this kid also saved you in Huarong Dao, right?" ”

Le Chang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Chen Ji to suddenly mention this matter, at that time, after Huarong Dao, the East Palace rewarded meritorious soldiers, and Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian took a lot of money as the main generals.

After all, this matter involves the struggle for power and profit of the Nanchen royal family, so the construction has been trying to make it as small as possible, so Lechang thought that everyone would keep silent about it, but he didn't expect it to be mentioned by Chen Ji again.

Suddenly remembering the struggle in the torrent and the charm in the cave, Le Chang's pretty face turned red. And her daughter's helpless expression was fully seen by Chen Ji, and she couldn't help laughing: "My little girl has also grown up." ”

————————————

Li Xinchen arched his hand at Tang Yishun and Tang Zhongren, but did not enter the hall.

Tang Yishun was a little surprised, and hurriedly made a gesture of please: "General, please." ”

Waving his hand, Li Xinchen smiled and said, "This is your Xiajiang Tang Clan's clan meeting, General Ben is just an outsider, of course he can't stand in the hall." Baekhyun, you don't have a place to sit and drink tea, do you? ”

Li Xinchen's attitude made Tang Yishun and the others a little surprised, this general rushed from Bajun to Wanchuan, just to find a place to drink tea and wait for news?

"You can go and discuss the affairs of your family first, and if you come to a conclusion after discussion, you may as well discuss the next matters with you." Li Xinchen smiled slightly.

Coming back to his senses, Tang Yishun solemnly bowed his hand to Li Xinchen. Li Xinchen's attitude of not interfering in the internal affairs of the Tang clan naturally gave him enough face and respect, and at the moment he personally led the way in front: "Then the general is wronged to do a moment in the study, and after the discussion is over, his subordinates will invite the general." ”

Li Xinchen bowed slightly, and Tang Zhengliang, who had been standing behind him, took a few steps forward: "Boxian, the general went to the study to drink tea, can you also go to the study." ”

Tang Yishun and Tang Zhong were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly arched their hands at Tang Zhengliang: "Brother Gong, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”

Tang Zhengliang smiled and waved his hand: "We are the same age, so the two of us don't have to be so polite, Brother Boxian went to settle the general, and went in by himself." ”

"Brother Gong, I'm with you." Tang Zhong smiled slightly, pulled Tang Zhengliang's arm, and was very affectionate, "Chief, we didn't talk well the last time we met, after today's incident, you and my brother have to drink two cups of anything!" ”

"It's nature!" Tang Zhengliang also smiled.

And Tang Zhong turned sideways slightly and glanced at Li Xinchen and Tang Yishun, who were walking in the opposite direction.

This general looked not greedy for the internal affairs of the Tang clan at all, but the appearance of this Tang Zhengliang clearly told Tang Zhong that he was not uninterested, but just reached in with his hand in a more ingenious way.

When Tang Zhengliang stood in the hall, who could not know who he represented?

This young general is unusually delicate and calm.

Tang Zhengliang glanced sideways slightly, taking in Tang Zhong's somewhat changed expression, and couldn't help but smile slightly, but didn't say anything, but walked straight into the lobby quickly.

There are already more than ten people standing in the hall, old or young, and those who have the ability to stand in this hall are not simple people, these are the heads of the Xiajiang Tang clan's branches in various places, and the ownership of the entire Xiajiang Tang clan is ultimately decided by these people.

When Tang Zhengliang appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of many people in the hall.

Originally, the Bajun Tang clan was only an insignificant small branch of the Xiajiang Tang clan, and in the previous Tang clan conference, Tang Zhengliang and the Bajun Tang clan had little to say, otherwise Tang Zhengliang would not have found another way out under Zhang He.

But now it's different, when Tang Zhengliang appears, everyone has to weigh the meaning of his every word and action. Because Tang Zhengliang was not standing here alone at this time, there was also a Li Xinchen standing behind him.

They all knew that Li Xinchen was coming, but they didn't see Li Xinchen come in until now, but only Tang Zhengliang came in by himself, which shows that Li Xinchen only let Tang Zhengliang as his representative, and did not mean to participate in this conference as a person with a different surname.

This made many people breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, they also had a good impression of this general.

Of course, having a good impression of Li Xinchen does not mean that they have a good impression of Tang Zhengliang.
