Chapter 10: Chance Encounters

"Brother Zizheng, Ming people don't say secret words, the younger brother came to visit today, he really has something to ask for, and I hope that Brother Zizheng will give you advice!"

Chen Tang has a bold personality, has always been quick to talk, never procrastinates in speaking and doing things, and says directly.

And Liu Gengsheng's personality is just the opposite of Chen Tang, subtle and introverted, not shocking and unexciting, listening to Chen Tang's words, nodded and said: "Zigong is okay to say, for my brother to know everything, everything is said!"

Chen Tang asked straightforwardly, "Brother, do you have a list of personnel for this Maocai?"

"Nope!" Liu Gengsheng shook his head and said: "This time, His Majesty's edict to the prime minister, the imperial history, the two thousand stones, and all the princes who are different and outspoken, the number of recommended people, the number of people, I am afraid that there are no less than five hundred people, and this list is directly sent to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will preview it personally, and then arrange for the appointment, now that two months have passed, it is even more difficult to find out about their list, unless you can enter Lantai to view the archives, there is no other way!"

Chen Tang stroked his forehead with his hand, and wanted to check the files again, last time he was in the Sili Captain's Mansion, and this time he was going to the palace, but how could he enter the palace at will, and said with a wry smile: "My brother has lived in the capital for a long time, but there are acquaintances who serve in Lantai?"

"Sorry, no." Liu Gengsheng said apologetically.

Chen Tang said regretfully: "The elder brother is not despicable to the younger brother, and has solved the doubts and doubts of the younger brother several times, and the younger brother is grateful, since the capital can't find anything for the time being, the younger brother will return to his hometown on the same day to investigate the cause of his father's death, and today he should resign to his brother."

"In that case." Liu Gengsheng got up and said reluctantly: "Then send you for my brother, I hope you will find out the real culprit as soon as possible and return your innocence!"

"Thank you, brother." Chen Tang thanked him and said: "But my brother has just been imprisoned and is about to recuperate, if he works hard for me and hurts his vitality, wouldn't it be the fault of the younger brother, so my brother can cultivate at home with peace of mind, and there is no need to send him off."

"What do you mean, brother?" Liu Gengsheng said unhappily: "You and my brother hit it off at first sight, although Liu is not talented, he is also willing to follow the ancients, how could he do such an unrighteous thing!"

"Brother, you know I didn't mean that." Chen Tang shouted and said, "You are trapping your brother in injustice like this...... That's it...... If you want to send it away, brother...... It's okay, but it's only in the city, and when you leave the city gate, the elder brother will go home...... If not, I will leave immediately, little brother......"

"Hey...... According to the brother's wishes......" Liu Gengsheng sighed helplessly, and then asked the housekeeper to take out a brown-red horse from the stable, and said: "The virtuous brother has a long way to return to his hometown this time, and it is not easy to walk, and it is not easy to climb mountains and wade with this good horse."

Chen Tang stepped forward to look at the horse, stroked its hair, and said ecstatically: "Thank you brother, but the younger brother is disrespectful!"

Chen Tang took the horse rope and led the horse, and walked on the main road of Chang'an with Liu Gengsheng on foot, but Liu Gengsheng looked more lost, and was silent all the way, Chen Tang didn't know how to comfort him, and he was silent all the way.

"Get out of the way...... Get out of the way......"

Suddenly, a group of people poured in from outside the city gate, and several soldiers in front ran in front of the scattered crowd, and pushed Chen Tang away, Chen Tang was already in a bad mood, and was pushed by him, and immediately came back to his senses, grabbed the soldier's collar and kicked him to the ground.

The soldier fell to the ground, and the rest of the soldiers immediately drew their swords and rushed over when they saw this, surrounding Chen Tang and Liu Gengsheng, Chen Tang was about to fight back with his sword, Liu Gengsheng grabbed Chen Tang's arm, and saw that Chen Tang should not act rashly, so Chen Tang gave up.

At this time, a general wearing armor rode through the city gate, and there were cavalrymen wearing red robes in front of him to open the way, and there were halberd armor soldiers in the back, calling forward and hugging back, so not majestic.

Liu Gengsheng took the opportunity to say to Chen Tang: "This person is Feng Fengshi, the ruling Jinwu, who is a veteran general in the army, and has a very high prestige."

Chen Tang had heard of his prestige for a long time, but unfortunately he had never had the opportunity to see him, and when he saw him in person today, he said in surprise: "But the general Feng Fengshi Feng of the Western Regions who pacified Shache and shocked the Western Regions?!"

"Yes, that's the man." Liu Gengsheng said solemnly: "General Feng has made great contributions, and he should be knighted, but he was dissuaded by Mrs. Xiao in the name of pretentiousness.

Chen Tang especially looks down on those Confucian ministers who think that they have read two books, open their mouths of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and keep their mouths closed, and those who can't help the world and the people, and who can't defend the country with martial arts.

So he comforted him: "It was Xiao Wangzhi who stopped him, what does it have to do with my brother?" What's more, General Feng, who is a junior brother, is not like innocent people because of this matter! ”

Liu Gengsheng sighed helplessly: "I can't talk about what Mrs. Xiao did at the beginning, but I was indeed promoted by Mrs. Xiao to rank in Jiuqing, and in the eyes of others, I have already reached Mrs. Xiao's person......"

Chen Tang opened his mouth and interrupted: "As a real general, what he longs for is the battlefield, not the court, and the intrigue and power struggle above the court is just a burden and dirt for him."

"Yo...... You kid, you have some opinions. A cavalryman in red-robed armor spoke up.

Its voice was crisp and loud but tactful and soft, obviously a girl's voice, Chen Tang looked over along the source of the voice, and saw that the cavalryman in red robe and armor was indeed a girl dressed as a man.

Chen Tang was playful for a while, and he sneered like her: "Yo...... You little girl, but you also have a bit of a woman's eyebrows. ”

The people who watched the excitement around and didn't think it was a big deal, when they heard Chen Tang's ruffian's words, they all laughed.

The little girl was ashamed and ashamed, and her pretty face turned red and shouted angrily: "Don't laugh, all of you are not allowed to laugh."

This time, not only the common people laughed, but even the cavalry with her slapped their legs and laughed.

The little girl clenched her silver teeth, waved the spear in her hand, and stabbed at Chen Tang, the culprit, Chen Tang avoided left and right, but kept saying in her mouth: "Slow, slow, this is biased, yes, that's it, faster......"

The little girl swept away in annoyance, Chen Tang hurriedly took a step back, patted his chest, and said fearfully: "I want to lose my master's quick eyes and quick hands, and I have an idea, otherwise I would have died on the spot and let you murder your husband......"

"You bastard, what are you talking nonsense......" The little girl jumped off the horse and snatched towards Chen Tang.

"Yuan'er, don't mess around."

Feng Fengshi, who was hugged by the army, saw his baby daughter jumping off the horse to find someone desperately, so he hurriedly shouted, and then rushed over by himself.

Feng Yuan glanced at Chen Tang hatefully, came to Feng Fengshi, and said aggrievedly: "Father, this disciple bullied his daughter just now."

Chen Tang heard her go to complain to Feng Fengshi, a mouthful of old blood almost didn't spurt out, and he stepped forward and said embarrassedly: "General Feng misunderstood...... misunderstanding" and then didn't know what to say, the ghost raised his thumb and said: "Ling Qianjin is cute, women don't let her eyebrows, it's really a tiger father and no dog girl!"

Feng Fengshi frowned and said, "Are you Chen Tang?" I haven't seen you for months, but it's become oily! ”

Chen Tang noodles were red-eared, touched his nose, and asked curiously, "General Feng actually knows me?!"

"I used to know each other, but now I don't." Feng Fengshi said lightly: "I used to think that you were a character and wanted to transfer you to our department, but unfortunately I didn't expect you to be such a despicable person, and now you are even more unruly and unscrupulous." Yuan'er, let's go ......."

With that, return to the army and order the troops to move forward.

Feng Yuan rode on the horse, glared at Chen Tang viciously, and then patted the horse and followed......
