Chapter 669: Anne
"I heard that Uncle Zhongyong has an internal official Cao Teng by his side, who is very favored, even to the point of obeying his words!"
But this man is extremely greedy, and only if you give him some gold and silver to satisfy his greed. This person came forward to make a point, and I think that our army will definitely not become cannon fodder!"
Zhuge saw that the dragon gently shook the feather fan in his hand and said confidently.
"This man has heard of it as the last general... ”
It is said that this man was originally a personal soldier of the loyal and brave uncle, and he once protected the lord and won the trust of the loyal and brave uncle, but he was extremely greedy, and a little wealth could not satisfy his appetite at all. ”
"However, this person has a good reputation!"
"As long as you accept the money, you will definitely get things done!"
It is precisely for this reason that most of the people who want to find a loyal and brave uncle to do things will send him money. Ask him to dredge it up on his behalf. ”
When Yang Shou heard Cao Teng's name, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he said firmly.
"It turned out to be another greedy villain!"
"How can Uncle Zhong Yong be undefeated if he reuses such pickled goods?"
Fan Gou'er was born in the market, and what he looked down on the most was such a despicable person who scavenged the people's fat and ointment, and when he heard Cao Teng's experience, he immediately said with some disdain, even the loyal and brave uncle who he had never met did not have much good impression.
"Be careful!"
"It's just a matter of talking about it in the camp in Zhibei County!"
"Don't go out and talk nonsense, Uncle Zhong Yong is a meritorious person of the court and has won the trust of the king, how can you talk about it in vain?"
Seeing Fan Gou'er complaining in that unobtrusive mouth, Situ couldn't help but glared at him fiercely and warned.
"No!"
Fan Gou'er also knew that Situ was for his good, so he closed his mouth a little stupidly.
"General Yang knows this person!"
Seeing that Fan Gou'er knew what was going on, Situ Xing turned his head, looked at the black-faced Yang Shou, and said with a smile:
"I'm not afraid of the jokes of adults and everyone!"
"A certain family was in the barracks back then, and was squeezed out by his colleagues and officials, and was not reused, and he also wanted to transfer to the account of Zhongyong Bo through this person!"
It's just that Cao Teng's appetite is too big, and the last general is ruined, and he is shy in his pocket, so he didn't do it. ”
Later, he was framed, deprived of his merits, and became a prisoner. Naturally, there is no chance to get in touch ... ”
Yang Shou saw Si Tu Xing asking, his face couldn't help showing shame, and he said a little embarrassed.
"Haha... ”
Contrary to everyone's imagination, Situ not only did not laugh, but laughed happily.
"In this way, this official also wants to thank that Cao Neiguan!"
"Thank him for what he did!"
"A pickled goods who only know how to be greedy for ink and silver!"
Hearing Situ Xing say that he wanted to thank Cao Neiguan, Fan Gou'er's face suddenly showed a trace of dissatisfaction, and he said with some disapproval.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Exactly thank him for his greed!"
"If it weren't for his greed, how could this official possibly get acquainted with General Yang?"
"Tell me to go down, let Jin Wansan prepare a generous gift, don't be stingy with money, compared to the lives of my brothers, a little money is nothing!"
After Situ Xing laughed, he commanded with a solemn face.
"No!"
Listening to Situ Xing's orders, the generals' eyes suddenly showed a trace of emotion, and they hurriedly stepped forward to make a big promise.
"In addition, prepare the three armies!"
"On the auspicious day, you and this official will go to the North County together!"
Seeing that the army's heart was available, Situ Xing's eyes suddenly showed a hint of satisfaction.
"No!"
"No!"
Whether it was Yang Shou, Xue Li, or Fan Gou'er, they knelt on one knee, their heads bowed, their eyes glowing with cold light, and they made a big promise.
Situ Xing's eyes were gloomy looking around, he didn't stay in the barracks for long.
Because, he still has one more thing to deal with!
If this matter is not handled properly, the expedition will not be steady.
After all, if you go outside, you must first settle inside!
。。。。。
Hufu Flower Hall
Because of the frequent family meetings, and also to show status, the Hu family's flower hall is very large, even much larger than the total living area of an ordinary family.
A huge circle of mahogany carved Taishi chairs surrounds the center, as if two arms extend out, forming an encirclement.
As if to show humility!
Highlight the status of the head of the family.
The several Taishi chairs in the center are much larger than the ones on both sides, especially the one in the center, not only the mahogany is more elegant, but even the carving is also a lot more exquisite.
The pattern on it is obviously from the hands of famous artists, which is not only extraordinarily flexible, but even has a sense of vividness.
But even with so much furniture.
The flower hall of the Hu family still seems a little big.
Even if all the descendants of the Hu family gather here, there will be a feeling of emptiness.
Because the area is too large and the furniture is precious, the Hu family needs two special people to take care of and clean it every day.
However, today, the Hufu Flower Hall, which was unusually deserted, is overcrowded.
It even looks a little crowded.
Because, today, the Hu family convened the big and small wealthy families in Zhibei County for a meeting.
It's about the same as the last White House gathering.
The patriarchs of the big and small wealthy clans in Zhibei County gathered, and there were about dozens of people.
"Master Cheng!"
"Long time no see!"
"Master Li, your complexion is not too good, pay attention to rest!"
"Thank you for your concern, it's okay, it's just that there have been a lot of things lately, and I'm irritable!"
The heads of each family, either sincerely or pretending to greet each other, and looking for chairs according to the strength of their own family and their status in the family.
This position is very particular.
It can also be said to be an unspoken rule, what kind of strength, what kind of position to do.
It's all about sayings.
The strong family sits in a higher position.
Weak families,Sit in the back position.。。。
Of course, there are also disputes.
For example, the two families are about the same power, but they both want to sit at the front.
It is inevitable that there will be some discordant friction.
Fortunately, this kind of thing happens from time to time, and the Hao family naturally has its own solution.
Even if there is an occasional dispute, it will be resolved quickly.
Of course, everyone has a tacit understanding.
No matter how everyone fights and grabs, and even some family forces are too weak, so they don't have a chair directly, so they can only stand in the back.
The three best chairs in the center were always empty, but no one dared to step forward.
Because everyone knows that the three chairs in the center are reserved for the three strongest families in Zhibei County, the Hu family, the Bai family, and the Lu family!
If anyone dares to sit there, it is a contempt for the three great families, and a declaration of war.
Such a consequence is not something that all families can bear.
So, no one would do such a stupid thing.
Time flies.
Half an hour!
A quarter of an hour!
The tea in front of everyone changed again and again.
As if to test everyone's patience.
The owners of the three central chairs never appeared.
However, neither the heads of the house nor their attendants had any impatience on their faces, as if everything was supposed to be so.
This is also the impact of status, because the strength of the three major families is too much higher than that of other wealthy families.
Other wealthy families can only look up!
As a result, they have some kind of privilege.
It is precisely because of this kind of admiration, this kind of privilege, that all seemingly unreasonable existences become so taken for granted.
Just half an hour later, when the tea soup in everyone's cups was changed for the fourth time.
The door of the flower hall was pushed open heavily.
Hu Yudao, the head of the Hu family with a dark face and a strong body, and Bai Zizi, the head of the Bai family, who had just recovered from a serious illness and looked a little weak, appeared in everyone's eyes.
"Master Hu!"
"Mr. Bai!"
The people who were sitting and drinking tea hurriedly stood up and greeted each other with a flattering face.
"Please take a seat!"
Bai Zizi and Hu Yudao looked at the flattering expressions of everyone, and the two of them were not polite, nodded lightly and walked directly past everyone, and walked straight to the three Taishi chairs standing in the center.
Looking at the backs of the two, everyone had indescribable flattery on their faces,
But in this indescribable flattery, there is a trace of schadenfreude that is not easy to detect.
After all, the Hu family and the Bai family have been at odds for a long time because of their family status and business.
In particular, after the fall of the Li family and the Wang family, the contradictions between the Hu family and the Bai family were even more acute.
At the last gathering of the wealthy family, the two families almost turned their faces for the first place, but it was because of the relationship between Lu Taigong and the mud that it ended peacefully.
Now the rally is being held at Hu's house.
Moreover, Lu Taigong, who was with the mud, also temporarily left Zhibei County because of something.
The two of them will definitely be like needles to wheat.
It is even possible that it will trigger internal friction between the Bai family and the Hu family.
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes showed a look of expectation. In my heart, I secretly thought:
Let's fight!
Let's fight!
It's best to fight a lose-lose one!
The Hu family and the Bai family, as well as the Lu family, although powerful and able to provide shelter for these small families, were also like three mountains pressing on their heads.
Only when the strength of the Bai family, the Hu family, and the Lu family is seriously damaged, can these families have a chance to come out.
Bai Zizai and Hu Yudao arrived at the center of the flower hall at the same time.
As everyone expected, the two were like enemies, staring at each other coldly.
"The head of the Hu family is really a good means... Unexpectedly, the South Courtyard was separated from the Bai family, and Hu Qingyu Hall was established to set up another portal. ”
Bai Zizi was like a poisonous snake, his eyes looked at the head of the Hu family with cold eyes, and he said in a hoarse voice.
"Hehe... ”
"The East Courtyard of the Bai Family only cares about its own interests and ignores the existence of the South Courtyard. ”
"There is nothing wrong with the Southern Courtyard setting up another door for itself, Hu is just at the right time!"
"Even if there is no Hu Mou, there is no Hu Qingyutang, there will be such a day, but sooner or later!"
Hu Yudao was stared at by Bai Zizi, not only did he not have any embarrassment on his face, but he slapped it backwards, and said in a somewhat weird way.
"That's right, the head of the Bai family is a good means!"
"This military procurement is a rare big order. ”
"The head of the Bai family is not afraid that he won't be able to eat, so he will hold on?"
"Thank you for the trouble of the head of the Hu family!"
"Our Bai family, unlike the Hu family, has only been in the medicinal herb business for hundreds of years. ”
"Not to mention the purchase of hundreds of thousands of taels, it is more, and our Bai family is also confident to eat it... ”
"Yes, the head of the Hu family, you have to be careful, the medicinal materials industry, the water is deep, Bai knows that the head of the Hu family is a person who has seen the wind and waves, don't capsize in this small ditch!"
Bai Zizi is not an idle person, and suddenly said with some teasing.
"Humph!"
Hu Yudao was told by Bai Zizi about the sore spot, and he couldn't help but snort coldly.
Bai Zizai saw that Hu Yudao was a little soft, and he also snorted coldly, unwilling to say more.
However, to everyone's surprise, Bai Zizai and Hu Yudao seemed to have some kind of scruples, and there was no too fierce conflict.
It's just that after a few rounds of verbal exchanges, they took a step back very tacitly.
Sit down on either side of the central Taishi chair.
"This?"
Everyone looked at Hu Yudao, the head of the Hu family, who was sitting down on the left and right, with a dark and blue face, and Bai Zizi, the head of the Bai family, and their eyes couldn't help but show shock and surprise.
"How is this possible?"
Bai Zizai and Hu Yudao didn't even sit on the main seat.
Instead, I chose a slightly inferior starting position.
So for whom is this empty throne for?
Could it be the head of the Lu family, Mrs. Lu?
This is also impossible, not to mention that the head of the Lu family has already left Zhibei County.
In terms of family power alone, although they are all first-class wealthy families in Zhibei County, there is still a certain gap between the Lu family, the Hu family, and the Bai family.
Could it be that a noble man has come to Beijun, or is it the son and young master of the family?
Isn't North County under siege by rebels right now?
Is that impossible?
Could it be that there are other hidden wealthy families in Zhibei County?
It shouldn't be...
The Lu family, the Hu family, the Bai family, the Cheng family, the Niu family, the Li family, the Gongsun family...
Everyone subconsciously looked around, looking at familiar faces, and the thoughts in their hearts kept surging.
All the families with heads and faces are here ...
Looking at the empty and unattended first place, as well as Bai Zizi and Hu Yudao who were sitting on both sides like guards, there was suspicion and curiosity in the eyes of every family master.
Some people are talking in whispers, and some people are silent, as if they are confident. Of course, there are also people who rely on their close relationship with Hu Yudaobai and stand up directly to ask:
"Master Hu!"
"Who else is going to attend this meeting today?"
The body is strong, the muscles of the whole body are bulging, and he is a head taller than ordinary people, like Cheng Niu'er, who is a martial artist, but he is wearing a light and elegant Confucian costume, giving people an indescribable sense of disobedience.
It even makes people feel like they are crowned by a monkey.
However, Cheng Niuer didn't feel this way.
On the contrary, he felt that this outfit suited him very well, and his masculinity and elegance were perfectly blended.
For this reason, when he went out, he was still very narcissistic and looked in the bronze mirror for a long time.
Cheng Niu'er didn't know what others were saying about him, or even if he knew, he wouldn't care, because at this time he was looking at the empty position next to Hu Yudao with a look of curiosity.
The others were speechless, but their ears were visibly pricked up.
Obviously, in their hearts, they were also very curious about this person's identity, but because of their identity and personality, they didn't ask directly like Cheng Niu'er.
"Humph!"
Hu Yudao looked around and took in everyone's expressions, then he snorted coldly and reprimanded with some impatience:
"Ask what to ask!"
"What is there to ask!"
"Wait a little longer, and you'll know!"
Cheng Niu'er was bored and was reprimanded by Hu Yudao, but he didn't dare to be angry, so he could only shut his mouth a little sneeringly.
At this moment, the originally closed door was pushed open again.
Looking at that familiar person, everyone's eyes were wide open, their mouths were wide open, and their faces instantly became weird。。。。。。。
How could it be him?
