In the early winter of the fourth year of the early Han Dynasty, the heat of summer and autumn had already disappeared with the swirling of autumn leaves, and was replaced by bursts of coolness. The children are ordered by their mother to wear an extra piece of clothing before they go out every day, but these children go out just to play, and when they play, they get hot, and every time they come home, they always find that they don't remember where they left their clothes.

In Nanzheng County, the seat of Hanzhong County, Yizhou, Yizhou Mu Chen Lin deliberately set the State Pastoral Mansion and General Wei's Mansion side by side, using a huge mansion gate. There are no words such as the State Pastoral Mansion or the General Wei Mansion on the beam of the house gate, but the word 'Chen' in a big red seal font. Chen Zi Mansion entered the gate, there is a stone wall several zhang high, several zhang long, as the screen of the mansion. I saw that the dragon flying and the phoenix dance on the stone wall turned out to be a poem, and when I got closer, it was a poem "Will Enter the Wine" by Chen Lin, which was well known to women and children. There are three paths behind the stone wall, one to the left and one to the right, and one leads straight inside. There are several samurai standing on the three passages with spears and swords, but the difference is that there is a gate on the inner side, but the two tiger-like samurai in front of the door are dressed like the guards of ordinary large families, not like the samurai on the left and right, but they are authentic armored soldiers.

It turned out that to the right of this mansion was the state pastoral mansion, and to the left was the general Wei mansion, and the innermost place where there was a gate was the mansion of Chen Lin, the general of Yizhou pastoral guard. The Chen family lives here, Chen Lin's second brother Chen Ze and third brother Chen Zhi all got married and opened their own houses and are not here, Chen Lin's parents, two wives and three children live here, and even the famous Huang Yan and Zhou Cang do not want to set up a house alone and live here. Like this, the public and private sectors share a mansion, and there is only this one in the Han Empire. Many officials suggested that Chen Lin set up another mansion and build a luxurious mansion worthy of Chen Lin's name, but Chen Lin rejected them one by one. The state pastor is so frugal, others naturally don't dare to waste too much luxury, who doesn't know that Yizhou has a veneer judge Gao Jing Gao Dingyuan. If anyone is suspected of corruption by the tall people, it must be traced to the end. If you want to be an official, who can not be at fault at all, even Yizhou is inevitable, so as long as you are targeted by the tall people, there is generally no good end. Fortunately, after the officials continued to write to Chen Lin, Master Gao was invited to the secret room by Chen Lin, and I don't know what the two said, in short, since then, Lord Gao is no longer as bitter as before, but only to investigate large-scale cases.

It is said that Chen Lin's three children are the two sons born to the Zhang family of the main house, the eldest son Chen Bin is now more than eight years old, the second son is five years old, and the daughter is from the Wu family. The name of the eldest son, Chen Bin, was personally named by Chen Lin's teacher Yang Ci, which means both civil and military. But the eight-year-old Chen Bin didn't have the slightest intention of being both civil and military, but came out of the same mold as Chen Lin back then, going out on the street every day to fight with his partners, a full young Chen Lin. Grandpa Chen Li saw Chen Bin's appearance, shook his head and said helplessly: "I learned it from his father." ”

As Chen Lin's eldest son, Chen Bin pinned the hopes of everyone in Yizhou, and on this day, Fa Zheng had to say to Chen Lin: "Lord, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not?" When Chen Lin heard this, he said in his heart, you are like this, what should be said or not, you will definitely talk about it in the end, literati. Fa Zheng: "The young master is now more than eight years old, and the young master is very intelligent and qualified, and the lord should find a teacher for the young master to teach, and it will be unlimited in the future." ”

It's not that Chen Lin hasn't heard such words these days, but those people didn't mention it in front of Chen Lin, and now that the law is right to say it, Chen Lin has to pay attention to it. In my heart, my father Chen Li also said that it is indeed time for Chen Bin to find a famous teacher, I think Chen Lin only apprenticed when he was a teenager, and now he can't do it. Besides, Chen Lin also knows that Chen Bin may be the successor in the future, naturally he can't just be a martial artist who only knows force, like Zhang Ba, it's okay to be a general, but if you want to control the overall situation, then it won't work, not to mention that Chen Lin has so much territory now.

Chen Lin nodded: "Yes, what Xiaozhi said is extremely true, as a father, but he ignored it, I don't know what suggestions Xiaozhi and Ziqiao have, who do you think is better to defeat Bin'er as a teacher and who to assist?" "To be honest, there are a lot of celebrities under Chen Lin's command now, but Mr. Chen Bin has a different identity, to put it mildly, this is equivalent to the teacher of the Prince of the Han Dynasty, the teacher of the future Son of Heaven, there are many things involved. And this teacher's style will definitely affect Chen Bin's future development, for example, if this teacher has a strong and radical temperament, then Chen Bin will inevitably become hard, and he must be based on hard means. And if this teacher is too pedantic and weak, the future young master must be a leisurely and indecisive person.

Zhang Songnai is a native of Shuzhong, and hurriedly said: "Lord, Mr. Ren is a rare candidate. ”

Fa Zheng hurriedly spoke: "No, Mr. Ren is the teacher's teacher, if the young master worships him as a teacher again, how can there be a reason that father and son have the same teacher, it is not appropriate." "If it weren't for Chen Lin, Fa Zheng might have to say that Ren An was just a person who betrayed Chen Lin, how could he be a teacher.

Yan Pu: "That Mr. Zhou is also a Confucian master, and Mr. Ren is as famous as Yizhou, and Mr. Zhou's son is also a young talent, which shows that Mr. Zhou's education skills can be a young teacher." ”

It is undeniable that there are inevitable personal factors in the nomination of each person, but everyone they say is indeed a great Confucian in the world, especially with Ren and Zhou. Just when everyone was arguing, Huang Yan stepped forward and said softly to Chen Lin: "The eldest young master, when the eldest young master just went to Chang'an, he worshiped Lord Yang as his teacher, but I still remember what the prince said to Cai and others at that time. "Yang Ci accepted Chen Lin back then, and after Chen Lin made a big splash in Luoyang with a few poems, Wang Yun, Cai Yong and others once said that Yang Ci was lucky and accepted good apprentices, and looking at their appearance, I wished that Chen Lin was his own disciple.

Chen Lin was taken aback, yes, didn't Cai Yong already come to Nanzheng, and concentrate on revising the dictionary in the pavilion, if Chen Bin can apprentice to Cai Yong, not to mention how much advantage he has in fame, at least he can learn from Cai Yong that Confucian cultivation, and in the future, he will take the name of Cai Yong's disciple to do things, I don't know how convenient it will be, just like Chen Lin has used the names of Ren An and Yang Ci to bluff people. Chen Lin was overjoyed in his heart, and said in his heart, why didn't anyone think of Cai Yong, just because Cai Yong might not appear once in half a month now.

Chen Lin: "Okay, what do you think of Cai?" Chen Lin sounded, interrupting everyone's noise, as soon as they heard Cai Yong's name, everyone's reaction was different, some were surprised, some sighed secretly, and some oh it should be like this, in short, Cai Yong's name is embarrassing to refute whoever is afraid. How to refute it, if the Han can be compared with Cai Yong now, there are really few people, although Beihai Kong Rong is said to be a saint, but after all, because of age and other reasons, it is indeed inferior to Cai Yong. Like Mr. Shui Jing and others, they are rising stars, and after many years, they may be able to compare with Cai Yong, but now they are a little tenderer.

Everyone hurriedly shouted: "Cai, everyone is just right." At the same time, everyone couldn't help but look at Huang Yan a few more times. Chen Lin wanted to ask Cai Yong to be Chen Bin's teacher, but he couldn't be summoned casually, and he had to give Cai Yong enough respect and etiquette. So in the end, this matter became Chen Lin's family matter, what should other people do, and looking at Chen Lin's appearance, it seems that he is also very satisfied with Cai Yong, what else can others say.

Chen Lin turned a corner and returned to Chen's mansion and discussed with Chen Li: "Father, I discussed with everyone today and wanted to ask Mr. Cai Bojiao to be Bin'er's teacher, I don't know what my father thinks?" Chen Li smiled and said: "Bozhi, now you are also a minister with great power, and you still ask me from time to time, hahaha, Bozhi, your three brothers are all proud of their father, hahahahaha." Who does not envy the achievements of the three Chen brothers today, Chen Li, as a father, is of course qualified to laugh, and then said: "Although my father is not a famous person, I also know that Cai is the erudite, and it is not an exaggeration to be the first Han. ”

Chen Lin smiled: "Father, I have my own arrangements. "The successor can also be one, since ancient times, it has been the eldest son to take over, no matter how good Chen Ding is, if Chen Bin has no big accidents, then Chen Ding will not be able to take over Chen Lin's position in the future. Therefore, Chen Ding must not be better than Chen Bin. Chen Li was stunned for a moment, then understood a little, and said to Chen Lin meaningfully: "Bozhi, now Zhong Zhi and Shu Zhi are doing well, the general in the army, good, it is also good to be a world-famous general. He smiled and left satisfied.

Chen Lin left alone to think about what Chen Li said, Chen Ze and Chen Zhi are now the trump cards in Chen Lin's hands and the sharp blades in Chen Lin's hands. The two of them faithfully assisted Chen Lin, except for the relationship when they were young, Chen Ze Chen to the two of them did not have Chen Lin's courage, Chen Ze was fast, but ruthless, Chen Zhi was steady, but the enterprising courage was insufficient. Chen Lin's only advantage is that he dares to use people, can use people, and can tolerate people. Fa Zheng holds grudges, Zhang Song is withdrawn, Jia Xu is vicious, etc., everyone has their shortcomings, but Chen Lin can use the advantages of these people to serve him, so he has today's status.

The general in the army, Chen Li mentioned this, Chen Lin suddenly had a calculation, and Chen Ding would definitely support Chen Bin in the future like Chen Ze and Chen Zhi. That is to let Chen Ding concentrate on practicing martial arts, training soldiers, being a martial artist, and being a sword in Chen Bin's hand. The mind has been decided, and since then, Chen Ding has spent more than ten years in the martial arts training and abuse of Zhou Cang, Huang Yan and others, and he is never tired of it.

On the second day, Chen Lin went to Cai's mansion with gifts, and Cai Yong heard that Chen Lin was visiting in person, and hurriedly went out to greet him. Cai Yong was originally treated like this by his friend Wang Yun, and almost had the idea of committing suicide, if it weren't for Cai Yan's persuasion, Cai Yong didn't want his hard-working daughter to live alone in the world, so he barely survived. When Cai Yong came to Nanzheng with difficulty, he was greeted by the people of Yizhou led by Chen Li, and then when he saw the pavilion like a small city, the layers of bamboo slips, volumes of books, and young students laughing in and out made Cai Yong look new. Cai Yong's biggest dream is to write ancient books and history books, and now, hopefully. And when Chen Lin returned to Hanzhong, he immediately ordered Cai Yong to be given the greatest authority to be in the pavilion, preside over the pavilion, and teach some students at the same time. Of course, these are not Cai Yong's closed disciples, but the same situation as the lecture hall, regularly or irregularly with Ren An and others in front of the pavilion to open a pulpit.

Cai Yong is extremely grateful to Chen Lin, Dong Zhuo reuses Cai Yong, more often with Cai Yong's reputation, and Chen Lin also uses Cai Yong's reputation, even Cai Yong understands this, but Chen Lin gave Dong Zhuo what he didn't give, that is, the power to revise history books. Now Cai Yong is taking a group of assistants to pounce on this matter all day long, and he doesn't know how happy he is every day, even if he finds a little bit of something that he hasn't found before in the pavilion, he is so excited to come back and talk to his wife and Cai Yan non-stop. Everyone knows that in the past six months, it has definitely been the happiest time except for the moment when Cai Yan was born, and in this regard, Cai Yan, a talented woman who is said to have been hugged by Chen Lin, can't help but be curious about people who have no impression at all.

Cai Yong: "How did Bo come to my house today?" Hahaha. "Cai Yong is not a rude person, every time he is commensurate with an adult, he always complains to Chen Lin, and slowly, Cai Yong also relies on the old to sell the old, and calls Chen Lin's name, just like back then. Chen Lin laughed: "If you are free today, you will come to see Mr., hahahahahaha." ”

The two sat down, Cai's mansion was very simple, there were not many people, Chen Lin looked at the two maids who came in and out and said: "Sir, they all said that they want you to buy a few more people, so don't you have to do a lot of things yourself." Cai Yong laughed: "Who doesn't know the private government of Yizhou Pastoral Officials, how can the name of honesty and simplicity get Cai's turn." "Chen Lin does not have too much luxury in his life, which is disregarded in the eyes of some people, but in the eyes of more people, he is secretly praised, of course, whether they will do it when they go back is another matter.

Chen Lin was helpless, knowing that he couldn't talk about Cai Yong, the two kept chatting about other things, talking about Cai Yong's current affairs in the pavilion, he saw Cai Yong talking endlessly, until the sun set, at this time Mrs. Cai had to come out and complain: "Master, Bozhi will definitely be hungry for a long time." ”

Cai Yong was stunned, uh-uh-uh speechless, Chen Lin and Mrs. Cai are no strangers, and they can see each other every time they come. When Cai Yong heard this, he hurriedly stopped and said, "Bozhi, why don't you eat here tonight." Obviously, I haven't said enough yet, and I want to keep Chen Lin down and continue to listen to him. Although Chen Lin is quite familiar with Cai Yong, he has never eaten at Cai's house, Chen Lin was about to refuse, but suddenly changed his attention, and said to Huang Yan: "You guys go back first, and then come to pick up XX in two hours, just say that XX has eaten here at Cai's family, so don't wait in the house." ”

After a while, the dishes came up, Chen Lin didn't care about these, Chen Lin was not a luxury person, and seeing a fragrance wafting gently, Chen Lin didn't know why in his heart, he always felt a little excited. I heard a soft voice, mellow and smooth: "Father, mother." Chen Lin looked up and saw that he had a beautiful melon seed face, although it was not the pride of the sky, but it looked so clean and attractive, that people couldn't help but want to get close.

Cai Yong smiled and said, "Yan'er, I haven't seen Bo Zhi yet, but I hugged you when I was a child." After a while, I saw Cai Yan's face flushed with a smile, and it was this sentence again, my father and mother didn't know how many times I said it, but now that Cai Yan is so old, and he still says this in front of others, even Cai Yan, who has been married, can't help blushing. Mrs. Cai also said softly: "Master." "It's a bit of a complaint.

Chen Lin was also embarrassed, and said in his heart that Cai Yong couldn't be such an ignorant person, why is this. I heard a breathtaking voice say, "Meet your lord." Chen Lin didn't have time to think about Cai Yong's intentions, but he laughed out loud: "It's been almost twenty years, hehe." Cai Yong was silent like an old fox at this time.

This was the weirdest meal Chen Lin had ever eaten, the four of them were silent, and finally Cai Yan rushed to Dao'an and left, Mrs. Cai also left, and the next person withdrew the wooden case. Cai Yong smiled weirdly: "Bozhi, how is Yan'er?" ”

"Huh?" Subconsciously, Chen Lin didn't know what Cai Yong meant.

"Hahahahaha

Chen Lin was distracted and depressed.
