Chen Ying finally raised her head, and there were a little tears in the corners of her eyes, "I understand Daddy's intentions, I'm not the kind of cheeky woman, Daddy, I won't let him hate me, I'm his cousin, aren't I?" I want to help him as much as I can, didn't my grandfather say that at the beginning? Let me protect him, I don't know why our Chen family attaches so much importance to their brothers, but I can feel it...... I'm also the daughter of the Chen family, okay? Daddy, please. ”

Chen Anbang looked at his daughter helplessly, he understood his daughter's stubbornness, and it was almost impossible for her to persuade her to return to what she decided, but fortunately, Wujin didn't like Ying'er, which made him a little relieved, and he finally nodded, "Okay!" The daughter is older, and the father can't control it. ”

Chen Ying smiled, she stepped forward and grabbed her father's arm, and said coquettishly, "Thank you, Daddy!" The daughter gave her father a thump on the shoulder. ”

She raised her fist, gently slapped her father's shoulder, and asked him with a smile, "Daddy, why did you come here to persuade me to go back!" ”

"Not really!"

Chen Anbang closed his eyes, enjoying his daughter's filial piety, and said with a slight smile: "Daddy is here to see an elder, I haven't seen him for forty years, I was only ten years old when I saw him, it was supposed to be your grandfather, but your grandfather's leg is inconvenient, so I have to replace him, hey!" I haven't seen him for forty years, and I don't know if he remembers me. ”

"Daddy, who are you seeing?" Chen Ying asked with some curiosity, she hadn't seen her for forty years.

"Don't ask about this, okay, the appointed time is almost up, and I should also go."

Chen Anbang patted his daughter's hand lightly, stood up, walked to the door, and instructed the two henchmen at the door, "Go to Baifu Restaurant!" ”

．．．．．．．．．．． Baifu Restaurant is the same as Baifu Qianzhuang, all belong to Baifu Commercial Bank, Baifu Commercial Bank is the second largest commercial house in the Daning Dynasty after Donglai Commercial Bank, and it is also an official and business background, mainly famous for Qianzhuang, trade, entertainment and other industries, although Qianzhuang is not as good as Donglai Qianzhuang in Weiyang County, but Baifu Restaurant and Qinglou Yiqing Yuan are second to none in Weiyang County, and they also have the gambling hall industry, mainly in the capital, but Weiyang County has not yet come, if it comes, the Huang family's gambling hall should also be closed.

There are two Baifu Restaurants in Weiyang County, one in Beishi and one in Nanshi, of which Baifu Restaurant in Beishi covers an area of ten acres, consisting of three five-story buildings, which is the largest restaurant in Weiyang County and even Donghai County, ranking second in Chuzhou, second only to Duobaolou in Jiangning Mansion.

Although the Yang Kee Restaurant in Baxian Bridge is very famous, it is still small compared with the Baifu Restaurant, and the three five-storey restaurants stand in the west of the North City Square in the shape of "Pin", which is magnificent and magnificent, and the easternmost Huang Ji Miaoshou Gambling House is far away.

The gate of Baifu Restaurant is an archway, golden and brilliant, the two corners faintly present the state of Huabiao, showing the unusual background of this restaurant, the door is a left and a right is two earth-shaking lions, all carved with granite from the East China Sea, up to one zhang five, the momentum is mighty, the business of the restaurant is excellent, the customers talk about big business, the big family feasts relatives and friends, basically will come here, from morning to night, the three restaurants can almost be full.

Because Tianxiang Rice Shop and Baifu Restaurant are very close, Chen Anbang walked over.

"Officer, do you have a reservation?"

As soon as he walked into the door, the guy greeted him attentively, and Chen Anbang nodded, "Building A seventeen elegant rooms." ”

The guy was in awe, the most luxurious room in the restaurant within 20 blocks of the first floor, the reservation fee alone costs ten taels of silver, not ordinary people can afford it, this master has a rough appearance, and his clothes are ordinary, so he can't see that he is a rich man!

He hurriedly bowed down and said, "It's on the second floor, the guest officer, please come with me." ”

Chen Anbang followed him to the second floor, and came to a door carved with dragons and phoenixes, he made a look, and his subordinates rewarded the man with a piece of silver, "Just serve nearby, don't let people approach." ”

The guy was about to faint, a heavy big ingot, to say the least, there were forty or fifty taels, he only earned five taels of silver a month, until Chen Anbang entered the door, he sighed, "God of Wealth!" ”

The two men stood at the door with their arms folded, and no one was allowed to enter, and the men were not going to greet them, so he wandered about, and when he saw someone approaching the seventeen, he immediately went forward to lead them away.

Chen Anbang walked into the house, there are two rooms inside and outside, only an old man with gray hair sits in the room, and there is a unicorn flying cane next to him, he saw Chen Anbang walk in, and slowly stood up, the two looked at each other for a long time, Chen Anbang spoke first, he hugged his fists and saluted, "Is the predecessor Huangfu Bailing?" ”

I met once when I was ten years old, forty years have passed, the memory has disappeared like a cloud, and Huangfu Bailing also sighed secretly, Tianfeng is the same age as him, if he doesn't die of illness, he should be fifty years old now.

He also returned the salute, "I am Huangfu Bailing, may I ask if Your Excellency is Anbang or Dingguo?" ”

Chen Dingguo is Chen Anbang's brother and the second leader of the Phoenix Society, he didn't come with him this time, Chen Anbang smiled slightly, "I am Anbang, forty years ago at the Chujiang Wharf, I saw my predecessors, and I was given a jade pendant by my predecessors, and I still carry it with me." ”

He put a piece of crystal green phoenix jade pendant on the table, this is also a token of their meeting, the stakes are very high, no one dares to be careless, Huangfu Bailing recognized this jade pendant, he sighed in a low voice, "The descendants of the six warriors of Jin'an, the demeanor is still the same." ”

The people of Huangfu Bailing's generation can name the six warriors of Jin'an, there are only eight people in the world, in addition to the six warriors of Jin'an themselves, there are also the kings of Lanling County and Huangfu Bailing in the capital, and they can say this sentence is the token of Huangfu Bailing.

The two of them completely believed each other, and they both smiled slightly, and there was an extremely cordial look in their eyes, which was an emotional exchange with a common belief.

"Senpai, please take a seat!"

Chen Anbang waved his hand and asked Huangfu Bailing to sit down, he picked up the wine jug and poured him a glass of wine, and said apologetically: "After receiving the letter from the old gentleman, I immediately rushed here, my father should have come in person, but he was too old to withstand the wind and waves, so I came on behalf of my father." ”

"Your father is fine!" Huangfu Bailing asked.

"The body is fine, but he can't stand after a stroke ten years ago, and the news of the death of the wine Taoist hit him a lot, since the death of the wine Taoist, he began to think about his own future, how do we persuade him, he just doesn't listen."

Huangfu Bailing touched his gray hair, and he sighed lowly, "Two of the six warriors of Jin'an forty years ago have died, and the remaining four are all old, I don't know when they will be able to reveal their deeds to the world?" ”

Chen Anbang smiled with confidence: "Although the six warriors of Jin'an are old or have passed away, their descendants are still there, and the descendants will inherit their father's will, please rest assured!" ”

"I believe so, too."

Huangfu Bailing smiled, and then turned the topic to today's business, "I invited your father over this time, mainly to discuss a big matter with him, and now I will tell you the same." ”

"Mr. Huangfu, please speak up, and the younger generation will listen to you."

"Hmm!"

Huangfu Bailing pondered for a moment, and then said slowly: "When Tianfeng died, he left his last words, whether it is Weiming or Wujin, he is not allowed to set foot in officialdom, I can understand his heart to protect his son, so many years, I also tried my best to follow his last words to do, seven years ago I sent Wujin to the wine Taoist to learn art, he was not allowed to study literature, and I have not allowed him to participate in the imperial examination, but three years ago I also unfortunately fell ill, neglected to control Weiming, as a result, he was in high school for three consecutive years, and he has decided to enter Beijing this autumn to participate in the Jinshi department, I can't stop it, it seems that it is really providential, so I am writing to your father just to discuss, what are we going to do in the future? ”

Chen Anbang didn't care much about Wei Ming's desire to enter Beijing to participate in the imperial examination, he saw that Huangfu Bailing took this matter too seriously, so he persuaded him: "I think the predecessors think too much, forty years have passed, and not many people can remember the things of that year, it should be to let Wei Ming go out and break through, I say something ugly, Tianfeng Gongzi lived in obscurity for decades, and finally died early, it is estimated that he was also sad in his heart before he died, besides, Wei Ming is not without a way back, and Ryukyu Island!" If it really doesn't work, he will come to the island, and I will make him king, isn't it also good? A manly man, instead of living a lifetime, it is better to live vigorously! ”

Huangfu Bailing was a little disappointed in his heart, in fact, he just couldn't stop Wei Ming from participating in the imperial examination before he wrote to Chen Zhiduo, I hoped that Chen Zhiduo would persuade Wei Ming as his grandfather, but Chen Anbang's attitude turned out to be supportive, and he was helpless, although he was an insider, but his task was only to raise, the fate of the Wei Ming brothers still had to be decided by the six warriors of Jin'an, as long as he explained the words, there would naturally be communication between them, and he couldn't control the future.

Looking at Chen Anbang's ambition and ambition, he was quite eloquent and strategic, compared with his father, he was even better than the blue, and Huangfu Bailing thought of his sons like dogs, either doing nothing, or taking care of some trivial things, no one came out, his heart couldn't help but be full of loss, and sighed, "Okay then!" I will no longer hinder him from entering Beijing. ”

The two drank two more glasses of wine, and Huangfu Bailing suddenly remembered something again, and hurriedly said to Chen Anbang: "This time I invited you over, and I want to talk about Wujin again." ”

"Old gentleman, please speak!" Chen Anbang held the wine glass, and when it came to Wujin, he seemed to be confident.

"But you don't know, Wu Jin is no longer the stupid kid he was back then, decisive and shrewd, and smart, I'm wondering, should you give him an arrangement, you can't just care about Wei Ming, and ignore Wu Jin."

Chen Anbang smiled slightly, "Don't worry, old man!" Actually, I already have an arrangement. ”

He saw that Huangfu Bailing's face was still a little uneasy, so he smiled and said: "I have asked Ying'er to hand over the wine gourd and the bay leaf scripture to Wu Jin, those two things are now in Wu Jin's hands, if the old gentleman has time, you might as well tell him about it, let him know how to use it." ”

Huangfu Bailing was overjoyed, these two things were given to Wujin, which means that Wujin is no longer a child forgotten by them, and he will be able to get the same help as his eldest brother Weiming in the future, Huangfu Bailing was greatly comforted, so he nodded, "Okay!" I'll tell him as soon as I can! ”

After a pause, Chen Anbang smiled again and said, "Actually, I also have one thing I want to ask my seniors for." ”

"Please say, as long as I can do it, I will do it."

"That's the case, since Wei Ming has decided to go out, we must consider his safety, I discussed it with my father and decided to let Wei Ming take a concubine."

"Concubine?" Huangfu Bailing was stunned.

Chen Anbang smiled and nodded, "In fact, it is his personal bodyguard, the woman is more suitable, it is one of my female apprentices, the appearance and surname are very good, and the martial arts and medical skills are also very high, named Yu Hailan, twenty-two years old this year, her father is a famous doctor in Yuhang County, died in the hands of Fusang Haikou fifteen years ago, I took Hailan, who was only seven years old at the time, as an apprentice, my father has always been very worried about Weiming's safety, and has proposed several times to give Hailan to him as a concubine to protect him personally, I have brought it, I hope the predecessors can arrange it as soon as possible." ”

Huangfu Bailing thought about it, this was indeed a very necessary decision, so he nodded and agreed, "I will arrange this matter to let Wei Ming get married before entering Beijing." ”

Huangfu Bailing frowned, and asked worriedly: "What about Wujin?" What about his safety? ”
