In the past few days, the weather in Jixian County has been a little gloomy.

The clouds were thick, but there was no rain, so the air was stuffy, and it also made the people in the city irritated.

When this natural irritability comes into trouble caused by the assassination, people become more and more unsettled.

When these people were gathered together, standing outside the city, waiting for Chen Zhi's carriage and horses to arrive, the crowded environment of people and people next to each other immediately made them more and more manic.

Only, patience must be made.

Lu Gang is one of them, as a junior of the Lu family, he was brought over by the elders this time, saying that it was for him to take the opportunity to make friends with some characters, and if he could get in touch with the core clansmen of the Chen family, it would be the most ideal.

"Grandfather can also speak in front of the general, and he is also an important minister in Youzhou, why do we still stand here, it's really hard to feel at ease."

Standing and standing, Lu Gang looked at the figures in front and behind him, and couldn't help muttering.

His words were heard by his clan brother Lu Fan, who was close at hand, and when he saw his clan brother turn his head, he reminded in a low voice: "There are many people here, and you need to think a lot to speak. ”

Lu Gang nodded yes, and then couldn't help asking, "When will the general come?" ”

Lu Fan said: "Ask what this is about, this matter has nothing to do with you and me. ”

When Lu Gang heard this, he couldn't help but show a look of doubt.

But without waiting for this clan brother to ask, Lu Fan took the initiative to explain: "Don't say that it is us, even the masters of many families, I don't expect to speak in front of the general when I came here today, do you know that the general has already ordered that the government is not allowed to come out to greet him?" ”

"And there are so many people gathered here?" Lu Gang looked surprised, he really didn't know this news.

"The government doesn't organize, the people can organize themselves," Lu Fan smiled, and then changed his words, "Don't talk about this, if someone from the Chen family comes, you and I will go over to greet him, if you can take the opportunity to get to know one or two people from the Chen family, your status in the family will also improve a lot in the future." ”

Hearing this, Lu Gang couldn't help but nod.

At this moment, there was a commotion behind the crowd.

"It's coming!" Lu Fan's eyes lit up, and he turned around and looked behind.

Looking over, Lu Gang saw a group of people coming, and as soon as the people along the way saw them, they retreated one after another, and at the same time greeted them.

Among this group of people, there is a person Lu Gang is familiar with - that person is very rich and looks very friendly, and the other Chen clan members are greeted by others, only slightly responding, or simply ignoring them, but this person will return the salute and greet him with a smile.

This person is the current chief steward of Chen Zhuang, the younger brother of General Zhengbei, and Chen Luo, who is known as the fat God of Wealth.

"I didn't expect the shopkeeper Chen to come in person!" Lu Gang was a little surprised, "I heard that the officials in the general's mansion are going to visit him, and it's hard to see him." ”

He is not very old, and he usually wanders in Jixian County with a few friends, and he is in contact with the three religions and nine streams, so he knows the energy of this Chen Luo Chen big shopkeeper, and he has had several opportunities to want to climb the friendship, but he has not been able to do so, and now he sees it, and he can't help but be warm.

"Chen Da shopkeeper is the general's brother, the two are close, the general is closer to him, than to the two brothers, now the general is triumphant in the west, how could he not come? Okay, stop talking nonsense, come with me, say hello to the Chen people, I am very lucky today, my acquaintance is also here. ”

When Lu Gang heard this, he was a little surprised: "My brother is in the Chen family, do you still have good friends?" ”

Lu Fan said with a little embarrassment: "It's not that I am very familiar, but I once talked with him a few words at a dinner party, and now I just use this as a resource to talk in the past." ”

Lu Gang understood, nodded, and followed.

In all fairness, the Fan Yang Lu clan is also a big clan in Youzhou, and the background is even higher than that of the Chen family, but now it is the Chen family who is in power, and with the great achievement of destroying the Huns, no one can compare with it.

However, even so, the Lu family can be counted in this Youzhou, at least the top five families, it is logical for people to know the Chen family, but Lu Fan and Lu Gang are just juniors in the end, and they can barely get a descendant in the Lu family, so they will be brought over by the elders today.

In contrast, the people of the Chen family who can come here now are the people of the Chen family's most descendant in Youzhou, and they are indeed not accessible to marginal juniors like Lu Gang and Lu Fan, so they will be surprised.

Let's talk about walking, under the leadership of Chen Luo and others, they came to wait for Chen Zhi outside the city, and there were people around who kept coming to talk, Lu Fan and Lu Gang were just two of them, and there were many similar people coming.

Except for Chen Luo, the enthusiasm of the other Chen people was not very high.

Maybe it was sought after at first, and there was still some novelty, but as the number of banquets and gatherings increased, they were still the focus of everyone, and these Chen clan people slowly learned to deal with it calmly.

So much so that in the end, some people couldn't help but come to Chen Luo's side, and took advantage of a gap to say with a little emotion: "Uncle is really hearted, and he treats so many people so patiently." ”

"But you don't know, I'm touching the scene," Chen Luo is still obese now, but after growing a beard, he looks much more stable, and then listening, he showed a look of reminiscence, "Back then, Brother Qi and I were also outside Pengcheng City, to welcome a nobleman, at that time, Brother Qi and I were only juniors in the crowd, how could I think of such a weather now?" In today's crowd, there may not be a genius like Seventh Brother, but maybe there are one or two heroes, so be cautious. ”

As soon as the others heard that the clan uncle mentioned the "Seventh Brother", they immediately became solemn and solemn.

The crowd gathered like this, and soon, in anticipation outside, the ground trembled slightly, and a soldier in pitch-black armor slowly approached in the distance.

Chen Zhi rode a horse, at the front of the queue, and slowly approached.

Suddenly, the crowd boiled, and under the command of some people, they won in an orderly manner, and those who were familiar with the Chen family came over to greet them.

"Congratulations on the triumphant return of the general!"

"Today's general has made immortal achievements, and he is only waiting for his name in history."

"I've been looking forward to the return of the general for a long time, and I finally got my wish!"

……

A series of congratulatory words came one after another, mixed with the words of several elders-

"How can the general personally lead the army at the head, this move is dangerous!"

"Yes, I heard that not long ago, in Nadai County, there were assassins, and the general should be careful!"

"I hope the general will be careful about his body, you are shouldering the safety of Sanzhou!"

……

Listening to the noise, Chen Zhi raised his hand, and the soldiers behind him suddenly retracted their blades, and then stomped on the ground hard!

Bang!

The uniform movements, this sound shook in all directions, completely covering the noisy sound, and your murderous aura made many families and people tremble and stop talking.

Suddenly, the surroundings fell silent.

"Didn't I say that you are not allowed to greet the laborers?"

Chen Zhi withdrew his hand and asked lightly.

Suddenly, everyone present felt the weight of their bodies.
