It is not an easy task to get the reception of the prime minister of the dynasty, you must know that there was once a person who wanted to release the officials to prepare a thousand taels of gold and only wanted to meet him, and asked him to say a good word in front of the emperor, but he had no chance to wait in line for more than three months.

Zheng Xinyu is a famous man today, a chess master, although his fame is very great, he has no real power in his hands, and he rarely intersects with powerful ministers like Zhang Bonian, so Zheng Xinyu knows very well in his heart that Zhang Bainian will accept his own visit so quickly, mainly depending on the role of the letter brought by Tan Xiaotian, which is like a stepping stone, and whether he can maintain the relationship after knocking on the door is his own ability.

After entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, I knew what was going on with the so-called deep sea when I entered the Hou Gate, I thought that the Zheng family's mansion was already very large, but the scale of the Prime Minister's Mansion was not known to be many times larger than the Zheng Mansion, not to explain, even the guards standing guard at the door were not ordinary family guards, but the regular forbidden army with bright armor, holding a spear, and a knife hanging from the waist, and there were many more steps in front of the door than the Zheng family. It's no joke to lose your life.

As Zheng Xinyu, he naturally will not greet him at the door in person, instead of him to greet Zheng Xinyu and Tan Xiaotian is his third son Zhang Jiacheng, this Zhang Jiacheng is less than forty years old, but he is already a member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, from the official position of Liupin, the so-called Lao Tzu is a hero, is a rising star in the political arena of the Great Zhou, no one will doubt that with Zheng Xinyu's help and his own talent. In less than ten years, he will definitely become a heavyweight official in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Although Zhang Jiacheng is not very old, he is the same as Zheng Xinyu in terms of seniority, the two are commensurate with the old brothers, the two met with a cold and polite meeting, and his eyes naturally fell on Tan Xiaotian next to him - Tan Xiaotian is the inner disciple of the Zheng family, and when he goes outside, he also represents the face of the Zheng family, not to mention that this time he is a guest at the Xiangfu family, and he will naturally not be stingy in dressing, wearing a newly sewn trouser gown, and brand new cloth boots. The hair is also freshly combed, with an ebony hairpin, the whole person is clean, if it is not for the slightly dark complexion, it is almost the same as a porcelain doll.

"I heard that the Zheng family recently accepted a genius chess boy, could it be this little guy?" After looking at Tan Xiaotian, Zhang Jiacheng asked Zheng Xinyu with a smile.

"Hehe, so-so, it's reasonable. Every day. Don't give a gift to Lord Zhang yet. Zheng Xinyu said with a smile, polite in his mouth, but the corners of his eyebrows brought out a pride that could not be concealed - it is not a trivial matter for the future head of the Zheng family to accept his disciples in the city chess world, and it will definitely attract the attention of others. And this time, because of the factor of competing for Princess Crescent Moon's teacher, the Zheng family would not act in a low-key manner, but deliberately spread the news through various channels, in order to let other people in the Shi family know that Tan Xiaotian was already a member of the Zheng family. Don't think about any small calculations, Xiangye's Mansion has a lot of eyes in the capital, and it is not surprising to know these situations.

Tan Xiaotian immediately bowed deeply and gave a big salute to Zhang Jiacheng. He shouted, "Hello Lord Zhang, I greet you every day." According to the etiquette taught in advance, he did it meticulously.

"Hehe, little prodigy, don't be polite, if you become a princess teacher in the future, maybe I will have to say hello to you in turn." Zhang Jiacheng said with a smile, with his age, there is no need to return the gift, but in his mouth, he laughed and ridiculed, which seemed very kind.

"Uh", Tan Xiaotian was stunned, didn't he say that the matter of the competition princess lecturer was very confidential, so he couldn't say it casually? Why does this person say it when he opens his mouth, and seems to know very well? I couldn't help but turn my eyes to Zheng Xinyu, hoping to get a hint and let me know how to answer.

"Hehe, Brother Zhang's words are serious, this competition for other families has also sent many elite soldiers, although this kid has a good talent, but he is still young after all, it is not easy to go to the end, my expectations for him are not very big, as long as this competition enters the top four, it is not content to be brushed off in the first two rounds." Afraid that children will not speak big or small, Zheng Xinyu took over the conversation directly, the so-called words are full of seven points, don't say ten percent if you are not ten percent sure, if you don't do it, where will this old face go?

"Haha, I brought people from Yangzhou from afar, and just arrived in the capital and let him worship Linglang as a teacher, if you are not quite sure, will it take so much trouble to calculate with Brother Zheng's old plan?" Zhang Jiacheng smiled indifferently.

"Uh, hehe, those who know me, Brother Zhang. I am indeed very confident in this child, but the selection sent by other families is by no means idle, so I am confident and not sure, so it is better to keep a normal heart and go with the flow. "Being told by Zhang Jiacheng, Zheng Xinyu will not feel embarrassed, the other party is the son of the prime minister, and he is a member of the ministry, and the resources in his hands are beyond his imagination, coupled with his own excellent intelligence and more than ten years of officialdom experience, as long as he cares a little, it is not difficult to guess his own plan, but then again, although Zhang Jiacheng can also play chess and play quite well, but he is not a person in chess, and the fame and fortune that people in the chess world are fighting for in his eyes is afraid that it is the size of a sesame mung bean, and he can't shoot it at all. So what made him interested in this child?

"Hehe, Shenggu is happy, defeat is also gratifying, Brother Zheng's realm is beyond the reach of ordinary people like me. Please. Zhang Jiacheng's task is to take Zheng Xinyu to see his father, not to fight with him, and accept it when he sees it, he turns sideways and raises his hand to ask Zheng Xinyu to go to the backyard, Zheng Xinyu is polite, and walks side by side with Zhang Jiacheng, as for Tan Xiaotian, he followed behind them, looking at the surrounding situation curiously while walking, and when he was looking, he suddenly felt a little itchy at the back of his neck, and it seemed that someone was staring at him behind him, so he subconsciously turned his head to look back, although there were many people in the prime minister's house behind him, But all of them were obviously strictly trained, and they all stood respectfully before Zhang Jiacheng left his sight, not daring to move his head, let alone staring at himself.

Is it because I am too sensitive?

No suspicious person was found, Tan Xiaotian shook his head and continued to follow Zhang Jiacheng and Zheng Xinyu. (To be continued.) )
