But soon, when everyone saw Chen Deng who walked in later, they couldn't help but be shocked, and they all got up to salute Chen Deng. Immediately, a shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him and saluted Chen Deng: "The head of the family is here, I don't know what to order?" ”

However, it was said that after Chen Ju was released from prison, Lu Bu saw that he was highly respected, and although he intended to recruit, Chen Ju rejected Lu Bu on the grounds that he was too old and incompetent, and after returning home, he passed the position of head of the family to his son Chen Deng.

"I have important matters to discuss with the military advisor, you can make a few pots of good tea, and send them later. And all the brothers have been exempted from the tea money, and I should be counted as having disturbed you as an atonement. As soon as Chen Deng's words fell, many people thanked him. After Chen Deng turned around and saluted everyone one by one, he led Chen Gong up to the second floor.

After a while, the two of them went up to the second floor, and saw that there was no one around, but they couldn't hear the sound below, and there were several elegant rooms. Chen Gong paid special attention to it, and couldn't hear any sound, there should be no one there.

"Rest assured, this second floor is specially for my Chen family, if I don't tell you, I won't greet other guests on weekdays." Chen Deng turned his head to Chen Gong and said. Chen Gong listened, laughed, and said: "The Chen family is worthy of being the largest family in Xuzhou, and it really has everyone's style, admire, admire~!" ”

After saying that, Chen Gong walked to the second elegant room by himself, but Chen Deng still did not answer, and then followed.

When he was young, as soon as Chen Gong was seated, Xiao Er came over with tea and some pastries, and after placing them, Chen Deng glanced at him lightly. The little boy understood, nodded, and left quickly, knowing that he was well-trained.

Chen Gong saw everything in his eyes, he always thought that the Chen family was unfathomable, and after Chen Deng took over, the Chen family became a lot more low-key, cautious and meticulous, Chen Gong also secretly sent people to observe, but in the past few years, he did not find any clues.

Suddenly, Chen Gong sighed, then picked up a teacup, took a sip, and couldn't help but say a good tea lightly, Ning Se said to Chen Deng: "Yuanlong is meticulous and good at managing internal affairs, especially better than me, if Yuanlong can do his best to serve the lord." Yuanlong is in charge of administrative affairs. I am in charge of dispatching troops and planning arrangements. How can the lord be restrained everywhere? Even if you want to be enemies with Ma and Liu, you still have the power to fight!! ”

As soon as Chen Gong said this, there was bitter helplessness, but also a little urgent expectation, and it was not difficult to see from his expression and tone that Chen Gong was sincere. Chen Deng listened, and said with a faint smile: "The military advisor is falsely praised, but he is no more than a white-faced scholar, and he is not of great use." Compared with the military advisor, it is more like the spark of the stars than the light of the bright moon. What's more, since he was under the command of the Lord, he has always been conscientious, how dare he not do his best to serve his life? ”

"Humph! Yuan Ryuxiu wants to tease me! With your talents, you can be the assassin of Xuzhou and govern the land of a state, but you may only want to be a small master now, and how much can you do? Chen Gongyu's face changed suddenly, and his eyes suddenly became fierce. Chen Deng was not afraid, looked at him, and said: "The military advisor is too worthy of Deng, but if the military advisor wants to lobby Deng, is it a little too late at this time?" And presumably, even if Deng Dang really has this talent, the military advisor will not dare to hand over Xuzhou to me! ”

"That's right!" When Chen Gong heard this, he didn't shy away from it, and suddenly shouted, and suddenly shouted: "You don't have the heart of my master, and you took refuge in the first place, just for the Chen family and your father." You also know that everyone in the world thinks that my lord is a jackal and tiger, but if Xuzhou makes another mistake, my lord may have nowhere to stay! Therefore, Xuzhou must not be lost, or my lord and I have no way out! Therefore, once this war starts, our army must not lose, and what we Chen Gongtai want to fight is a war that can only be won! Chen Gong did not hide it this time, the words were sonorous and powerful, and his last sentence was even more powerful.

Chen Deng listened, but his reaction was flat, and he arched his hand: "The military advisor is extremely smart and amazingly talented. The martial arts of the lord are unparalleled in the world, and no one can compare with each other in ancient and modern times. Looking at the current situation with the assistance of Wei, Ju, Ji, and high-ranking generals, it is not impossible to win the victory. ”

"!" As soon as Chen Deng's voice fell, Chen Gong immediately shouted, his eyes suddenly rounded, and his face was full of solemnity. Chen Deng, who was reprimanded by Chen Gong, couldn't help but look pale, but he didn't respond.

Chen Gong sneered twice, and suddenly said: "Chen Yuanlong, I don't want you to continue to entangle, it's better for you and me to get straight to the point, so as not to waste time." Once the war starts, the lord will pour his troops out, and Xuzhou will be empty, and once it is counterattacked or sneak attacked by the enemy, it will be destroyed. At that time, the people of Xuzhou will inevitably be harmed by the war, of course, you Chen Yuanlong can unite the major families and dedicate Xuzhou to Xuzhou, one can ensure that Xuzhou is not lost, the second can save the wealth of the family and other families, and the third can avenge the blood hatred of the Tao family, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone. I might as well make it clear that the one who most wants the lord to send troops is probably you, Chen Yuanlong!! ”

As soon as Chen Gong said this, the atmosphere suddenly became weird. The surroundings were terrifyingly quiet, but at this time, Chen Deng laughed and said: "The military division is known as the 'King of Ji', in order to prevent me, how can there be no follow-up?" ”

When Chen Gong heard this, his face couldn't help but sink, his eyes became cold, and he said, "It seems that you have already guessed." ”

"That's right, although you Chen Gongtai is cunning and scheming, he is not a ruthless person, and Tao Gong's family should not have been killed by the people you arranged. And over the years, your mansion has been heavily guarded, and no outsiders have entered your mansion except for Lu Bu and Gao Shun, who came back not long ago. If I am correct, Tao Gong's wife is probably in your mansion! As soon as Chen Deng said this, the pupils in Chen Gong's eyes couldn't help shrinking slightly, but instead of answering, he showed a weird smile.

When Chen Deng saw it, his face immediately tensed, and there was even more resentment in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and said, "Even if you want to threaten me with Tao Gong's family." But don't forget, now Xuzhou has already changed owners. For my Chen family, for them, they can be benevolent, but they will not lose their lives. Strategist, you want me to be at your mercy because of this, that's a mistake. ”

With that, Chen Deng was about to get up. Suddenly, Chen Gong shouted: "Okay, tonight Chen might as well send a few generous gifts to Yuanlong's mansion, I'll see if Yuanlong will regret it!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Dengsha's complexion changed drastically, he couldn't bear it anymore, lost his calm, pointed at Chen Gong, and shouted: "Chen Gongtai was just a lost dog back then, if it wasn't for Tao Gongren to take him in, how would you have a place to stay!?" But you will take revenge and help that Lu Bujiu occupy the magpie's nest, and now you are so shameless that you want to threaten me with Tao Gong's widow, you are not afraid of retribution~!? ”

"No poison, no husband! As long as it is for my lord, even if he wants Chen to be on the head, Chen will never hesitate. The matter is critical, and it is all helpless to make such a decision. Chen Yuanlong, you don't have to test me, I will do what I say! Chen Gong's somewhat reddened eyes looked directly at the furious Chen Deng. Chen Deng's face was tense, he gritted his teeth, and even a little hideous.

However, he said that that night, Lu Bu held a feast in the palace of the palace, just to receive Jian Yong. When Jian Yong arrived and saw that the Wudu of Xuzhou was there, he sat down on both sides, and there were singers and dancers, as well as a group of musicians playing music on the side. Jian Yong couldn't help but be a little flattered when he saw that this banquet was so grand, and hurriedly met Lu Bu. Lu Bu laughed, very enthusiastic, and then taught Jian Yong to sit at the next seat of his own steps, and Chen Gong was one left and one right, which shows that Lu Bu attaches great importance to Jian Yongzhi.

Seeing Lu Bu being so hospitable, Jian Yong actually cried on the spot with a handful of tears and snot, but said that even his own lord did not treat him so politely, and he was grateful for Lu Bu's kindness, but he didn't dare to take a seat, but after a while of persuasion, Jian Yong sat down on the ground half-pushed and half-sneered.

"It's rare to be happy today, and to get to know such a handsome man as Jane Coats, it's really happy, and I'll be drunk tonight~!" Lu Bu laughed and ordered the banquet to begin. So, as the dishes were delivered one after another, the singers danced, and everyone began to watch while eating and drinking.

Soon, after three rounds of drinking, Lu Bu suddenly looked at Jian Yong, but he couldn't help but show a little disdain. Seeing that Jian Yong was holding a roast leg of lamb in one hand, eating a mouthful of oil, he was looking at the dancing singers with a face, and he drooled.

Lu Bu saw it clearly, and his face couldn't help but twitch even more, but then he thought again: "This is also good, such a vulgar person, I guess I won't play any measurements, I'll test the temptation." ”

As soon as his thoughts turned, Lu Bu asked Jian Yong: "Jian Gaoshi, let me ask you, how did Uncle Liu Huang entrust you when you came here?" ”

"Hahaha~! It's all because Wen Hou is too enthusiastic, if you don't ask, I'm afraid I really forgot. Don't hide it from Wen Hou, but Uncle Liu Huang hopes to settle his old suspicions with you and get back together. Wen Hou, you see, Ma Xi sits on two treasured lands of Yan and Ji, has a lot of money, more food, and more than 200,000 people with armor, and now he has been recuperating for several years, so he must be unable to bear it and is ready to continue to expand his power. And Cao Thief is powerful and cunning, Ma Xi does not dare to easily start a war with him, so it is very likely that he will target the land of Youzhou and Xu. If this is the case, why don't the two join forces to resist the strong enemy. When the time comes, Wenhou will take Yanzhou, and the emperor's uncle will take Jizhou, and the two sides will sit big in the future, and then work together to break through Luoyang, welcome back the Son of Heaven, support the Han family, and sweep away the troubled times, isn't this the hope of the people of the world~!? ”

Now, I heard Jian Yong say solemn words, but looking at his big face full of oil and hara, grabbing the leg of mutton and shouting, it seemed funny. The few singers who were dancing were even laughed by him.

"Presumptuous! We are discussing national affairs, who dares to laugh at ~!? When Lu Bu heard this, he suddenly shouted, but Jian Yong was also frightened, and then he remembered his image, and quickly put down the roast leg of mutton, wiped his mouth with his hand, and then wiped his hands with his buttocks.
