Chapter 360: The Ass Determines the Head (3)
Time went back to an hour ago, Chen Fei and Chen Xiande chatted in the restaurant.
"Chen Fei, you are very similar to my twenty-third uncle! The twenty-third uncle Chen Shumu is the twenty-third son of his grandfather, and his grandfather has a total of forty-two brothers, not to mention the daughter, it can be said that the descendants are all over the world! Chen Xiande said.
And Chen Fei complained in his heart: "It is said that we are the protagonists of the crossing. Gong Chong. Horse, but compared to your grandfather, even the vast majority of the protagonists are trivial. There are forty-two sons alone, not to mention daughters, which is really enough. ”
But I can't say this, after all, in this era, there are many sons and many blessings, and I hope that the family can spread out, and the more sons and descendants, the better! What kind of family planning, it's all a shadowless thing, anyway, their family is rich and can afford to raise so many people!
"My twenty-third uncle once died of illness in Chang'an, and he was merry by nature, maybe he left some heirs of the Chen family outside, maybe too! And Brother Chen, the last time you came to our Ministry of Industry, I found out how similar you were to Uncle Twenty-three? Chen Xiande said.
Chen Fei immediately scolded secretly: "Make it up, make it up, I'll see what story you can make up!" ”
Chen Fei absolutely knew that this Chen Xiande was talking nonsense, he was crossing through the body, and he was not possessed by a soul or reincarnated, so where did he have any relatives in this world. This guy said that he was somewhat similar to his twenty-third uncle, and he was definitely talking nonsense. Of course, Chen Fei can't directly point his nose and scold the other party, after all, the next drama is the most important. Next, if you follow the script, you should be grateful, take the opportunity to "recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors", and then join the big family of the Chen family. Isn't this kind of story tailor-made for yourself, there have been many since ancient times!
Sure enough, Chen Xiande immediately asked, "Brother Chen." Do you remember that you were lost with your father there in troubled times? Is it in Chang'an? ”
"How do I know!" Chen Fei said.
If it was an ordinary person, he would have directly "followed the trend" and admitted that he was lost in Chang'an. Anyway, there is no DNA identification in this era, and relatives can only look at their appearance. However, the appearance of many relatives and fathers is not very similar, so the appearance cannot be used as an absolute basis, and the ancients also understood it. Therefore, many people also use the various circumstances of the loss at that time as a confirmation, as long as the confirmation is on, it is generally recognized. However, Chen Fei didn't want to find an ancestor for himself to offer, which would not be good for him.
Chen Xiande saw that Chen Fei was so unwilling to "cooperate", and he was secretly a little anxious in his heart. Because his father, Chen Shuda, told himself. You have to do everything you can to pull Chen Fei over, after all, Chen Fei has a future! The Chen family is now in a period of scarcity, Chen Shuda was removed from the position of prime minister, and Chen Shuda's descendants are only Chen Xiande, the water department. This Mizube Langzhong is a five-rank official, and it doesn't look low. But Chen Xiande is already in his forties, and he can't improve anywhere if he wants to!
Therefore, they also looked for Chen Fei and wanted Chen Fei to join the Chen family, so as to become the spokesperson of the Chen family in the officialdom. Since Chen Fei is also surnamed Chen. It is not impossible for him to bear the temporary burden of this time when he is not in charge, but it is normal for the same sect to help each other. Anyway, in the future, the descendants of the Chen family will grow up again. took over Chen Fei's position, and Chen Fei will always be just a side line in the Chen family.
Now the Chen family is also in a hurry to go to the doctor, even if they know that Chen Fei is not from the Chen family's royal family, but as long as he is surnamed Chen. That can also be pulled over temporarily. It is the most difficult time for a family to endure when it is not successful, there is no endorsement of its own in the officialdom, and no one to protect its own interests. At this time, if you are not careful, the family will decline. Chen Xiande is too old and has a limited future for development. But Chen Fei is different, he is only twenty-two years old, and he is already a fifth grade. What's more, there is a Qiushi Academy behind him, and there will definitely be many "henchmen" of Chen Fei in the future. And Chen Fei has an ambiguous relationship with the eldest daughter of the Cui family. So the Cui family will definitely support Chen Fei. The people who support this kind of multifaceted support are the ones who are qualified to compete for the position of prime minister. After Chen Fei, he inevitably became the spokesperson of the Chen family and a target for the Chen family to push to the forefront.
For this, of course Chen Fei understands that after all, he is a person who has been an official for several years, and he is very clear about the doorways here. However, this also seems to be beneficial to Chen Fei, that is, Chen Fei can become a member of the Chen family, so that he is equivalent to having a scholar background, and he is no longer the poor son of the past. In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, it was very difficult for Hanmen to make progress. From the early years of the Tang Dynasty to the middle of the Tang Dynasty, the power of the scholar clan was always at its peak, and it became the peak in the middle of the Tang Dynasty. Unless it is at the end of the Tang Dynasty, that is the time when the scholar clan declines and falls. If Chen Fei had to fight in the officialdom with a humble person, he would encounter much more resistance than the Shi clan.
"Then Brother Chen, do you know who Ling Zun's surname is? After you left, did you have anything to prove who you are? If so, can you show me? Chen Xiande asked.
Chen Fei immediately shook his head and said, "Where do I know?" I heard from my adoptive father that the wooden plaque that proved my identity was also missing. ”
Chen Xiande was panting with anger, he had already planned that no matter what Chen Fei came up with to prove his identity, he would find a way to admit it. But now Chen Fei doesn't even bother to take out something to prove his "identity", which is obviously a slap in the face. Chen Xiande thought that his meaning was obvious enough, and Chen Fei was still "pretending to be stupid" like this, which made him feel insulted. Even if Chen Fei went to forge one, they could all acquiesce for the time being, but what kind of attitude did Chen Fei have!
"Okay, Brother Chen Xiande, if you have anything else, if there is nothing to do, I will leave." Chen Fei said.
"Chen Fei, don't be embarrassed! We can afford you and promote you, but you are so ignorant, so aren't you afraid of our Chen family? Our Chen family is a powerful person, and even an emperor, is a former royal family. But you actually don't take our Chen family in your eyes so much, what do you mean by this? Chen Xiande finally couldn't help but say angrily. (To be continued......)
