Chapter 194: The Gift
Chapter 194: The Gift
The Secretary of State had recently informed that a descendant of the Shatu clan wanted to work for the Chen family, but unexpectedly, this woman did not come to visit him first, but found Chen Fang in a special way.
Since it was recommended by the Secretary of State, it was naturally under his grandson's command, but the Shatu clan bypassed the head of the family, after all, it was a little unpleasant, but fortunately, Chen Bowei was not a narrow-minded person, knowing that this woman was not malicious, and she could do a small favor, so she didn't care anymore.
However, just as a pebble is thrown into water, it will inevitably cause ripples. I think that at the beginning, when the new forces wanted to defect to the Chen family, some people bypassed the then head of the family and found Chen Bowei.
The change of rights is inevitable, as long as the test is long enough, it must be the capable person who lives in it, and the head of the Chen family is the same, not determined by his preferences, but by the general trend, what Chen Bowei has to do is to follow the trend, not to let the process be too intense, hurt the vitality of the Chen family, so he pays attention to the ability and performance of each heir, rather than deliberately cultivating anyone.
"Could it be that I am old, and it is time to give way." Glancing at Chen Fang with a hippie smile in the distance, Chen Bowei shook his head helplessly, denying this ridiculous idea, at least not yet.
"Who are you?" Faced with a woman who suddenly stood up and was shocked, the military attache was in a dilemma.
"It doesn't matter who I am, I'm just as insignificant at this banquet as you. Unlike you, I know what kind of identity I am, and I will never challenge the heirs of the Chen family beyond my strength, do you think you are qualified enough? The mysterious woman's expression was hidden behind the mask, and there was no way to know, but it could be heard from her tone that she was extremely disdainful of the military attache of the Northern Legion, and it was also a kind of helplessness to compare herself with the other party.
Anyone who knows who the Red Devils are knows that her performance is anything but arrogant.
For the first time, the Auga Empire encircled and suppressed the pirates, and the Northern Fleet went out to fight, which was ten times the strength of the pirates, and was scattered head-on and collapsed; Recently, the Black Dragon Legion, which has infinite scenery, has also suffered repeated setbacks under her hands, the vanguard fleet has almost been wiped out, and hundreds of thousands of expeditionary fleets are floating in the vast sea of stars, unable to move, if it weren't for Chen Fang's strange team, plus Lu Beiyan's desperate bet, the expedition may not be able to go today, the lieutenant colonel and military attache of the Northern Fleet, what can he be in front of her?
But now, the Red Devils must make compromises, seek the light of day for the Shatu clan, and find a way out for the soldiers who follow her.
The old military attaché's face turned red for a while, and he was speechless for a long time.
"Since you have nothing to say, I may as well say that you are not qualified to challenge anyone at this banquet, but I am happy to accept your challenge." The Red Devils snorted contemptuously, this is definitely not a contest, it is a lesson.
"Thank you for the reminder, it's just that Chen Sangongzi provoked first, and I was unwilling to be humiliated, so I asked him to learn, not to mention the challenge, if Chen Sangongzi is unwilling, you can refuse, I have nothing to say, what does this have to do with you? Are you a soldier of the Black Dragon Legion, or a subordinate of the Third Prince? The military attache retorted with a red face, but he secretly regretted in his heart, he shouldn't have jumped out too quickly, and now it is difficult to ride a tiger.
"Neither, so I'm going to teach you a lesson, and express my determination to follow the third son, as a small gift."
"It's high-sounding, it turns out that you want to be attached to the Chen family, even if you have this thought, the Chen family can't look down on you. So, you delusionally think that you can defeat me as a way to prove your ability and gain the appreciation of the third prince. I'm afraid you're trying to defeat me in vain? Dream! I don't weigh how much I can do. The military attache couldn't help but sneer, there are more people who tend to be inflammatory, who doesn't want to lean on the big tree of the Chen family? He also wanted to, otherwise why jump out, but could he rely on it? At best, let Chen Dezhang look at him more and get a chance.
"Giggles, use you to prove my ability, you really can afford to look down on yourself. My ability doesn't need to be proven, and the third son knows it very well. You are just a small gift, if you hadn't jumped out like a mad dog, bitten indiscriminately, and offended the third son, as a gift, you wouldn't have been able to take it. "Behind the cold mask, the voice gets colder and colder, and it makes people shudder.
"What did you say?" The military attache was furious.
"People like you are good for nothing, and your only use is to be a stepping stone for others, so it's better to do something for others before you die, and accept your fate." The Red Devil was unwilling to continue to ramble, and suddenly attacked, and his white arms were like lightning, instantly clasping the military attaché's neck.
The sturdy military attache lost his ability to resist, his horse's face turned purple due to suffocation, and his limbs twitched weakly, as if he would stop at any time.
In the eyes of the layman, this is completely incredible, the Red Devil is just a charming woman, how much power can that slender hand have, even raise her hand to restrain the soldier like a bull, it seems, she doesn't seem to use much strength, just use the fingertips of three fingers to press lightly, her eyes are still calm, as if waiting for a faint flame to go out, and she doesn't want to speed up the process.
There is the densest area of the nerve plexus in the neck, once it is locked, even if there is the strength of the brute bull, it can't be used, and it doesn't need to use much force, the key is the precision of the attack, if the Red Devil is willing, a little force can be exerted, the military attache can die immediately, even if the status quo is maintained, the nerve plexus is suppressed for a long time, and the effect of suffocation can also lead to brain death.
"Be careful, don't hurt this uncle, this person is the third uncle's favorite general, the pillar of the Northern Army, if we accidentally hurt him, and there are any other people who come to attack, who else can we count on?" Chen Fang reminded him worriedly, anyone who could listen to the ridicule in his words, who was willing to bet his life on such a soldier.
There is no need to remind that the Red Devil will not play bloody light at the Chen family's birthday banquet, let alone human life, gently withdrawing his hand, the strong military attache like an iron tower fell to the ground like a puddle of mud.
The strength of the Red Devil was just right, and it did not cause substantial damage, the appearance of the military attache seemed terrible, but in fact, the injury was not serious, let go of the pressure on the plexus, and it could be relieved in a moment's effort.
Chen Dezhang said with a bright smile: "The future is terrifying, worthy of being a young hero, another day, I will definitely find someone to go to the Black Dragon Legion for advice." ”
Chen Fang said with a smile: "I don't think it's necessary, I don't think the old face is lost enough?" Everyone is the heir of the Chen family, you are not ashamed, I am sorry for you. ”
"Arrogance!" Annoyed and angry, Chen Dezhang sneered.
"People with capital are naturally arrogant, since you don't care about this old face, I don't have to think about you, the young master will show you now, I don't need you to ask for advice, when the task of the anti-terrorist team is over, I will personally go to the Northern Army to teach you, the young master wants to see, who can stop me?" Chen Fang put down his words loudly, and the sighs around him were endless, not only questioning Chen Fang's madness, but also worrying about the recklessness of this young man.
There are seventy-nine large legions in the Aojia Empire, the Black Dragon Legion is the most powerful and the most showy, and the other legions are naturally dissatisfied, and the legions staring at Lu Beiyan one by one are all red-eyed, Chen Fang actually added fuel to the fire, not to mention asking for advice, but even saying that he would advise, can he really sweep the mighty strong man of the Northern Legion? Even if the Northern Army has been silent for many years and is no longer in the limelight, this veteran army is not short of masters, and even if he has some skills, he should not be unattended.
"Good! Good! The Northern Legion awaits you. Chen Dezhang left angrily.
The mother didn't try to ease the relationship with the third uncle, but she wanted to get by on the face, and now, a good birthday banquet turned into a miasma, and she pulled her son to the corner without saying a word, and said with a straight face: "Are you satisfied now?" You can't eat your food and dance quietly. ”
Chen Fang deliberately pretended to be aggrieved: "I followed your instructions and came to say hello to him, I even thought about apologizing to him, but look at his virtue, he is shameless, and he is still in the legion for his age, can he charge into battle?" Or can you strategize? He relied on the identity of the Chen family to call for wind and rain outside, I ignored this, and dared to come back to play music with me, I wanted him to look good. ”
The mother didn't say a word, waiting for her son's performance to come to an end before reminding, "Come on, you provoked him first today." ”
Chen Fang argued: "This is the most infuriating, pretending to be sanctimonious on the surface, but secretly plotting behind the scenes, this is called a person in front of him, a ghost behind his back, you still don't know who he is?" I casually provoked two sentences to reveal the original form, the only way to deal with this kind of hypocrite is to be more shameless than his. ”
I'm not talking about you for the third uncle, but I'm disappointed in you, and your IQ is not bad, why can't you bend and stretch? ”
Chen Fang said with a hippie smile: "Who said I can't do it?" Now is the time to stretch, haven't I stretched? ”
Mother Zhengse said: "You are so aggressive, aren't you afraid that Chen Dezhang will turn his face with you?" ”
Chen Fang said with a smile: "Even if he wants to move me, he will buy a murderer, stab him in the back, and when he faces each other, I will lend him a gut, and he will also hold his tail." ”
The mother rolled her eyes: "Okay! Don't boast in front of your mother, how many pounds and taels do you have, I don't know? You deliberately provoked him by figuring out his weakness, right? Chen Dezhang is ambitious, wholeheartedly supporting his son to compete for the position of the head of the family, now is the critical moment, he will never be jealous, provoke the head of the family unhappy, the person he is afraid of is not you, but the head of the family, for the sake of his son, he can only swallow his anger, you are through this, there is no fear. Otherwise, even if Chen Dezhang has no temper, he will use force with you. Having said that, aren't you afraid that the head of the family will make so many things, and you're not afraid that the head of the family will be angry and kick you out in advance? ”
Chen Fang shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "I can't ask for it, it's such a big mess, only a fool is willing to bear it." ”
”
On the surface, she strictly stopped her son, but behind the scenes, she admired her son's style, including Chen Fang's assassination of the third uncle.
A child, knowing that someone is going to be against his father, is not afraid, does not flinch, this courage alone is commendable, but Chen Fang's courage seems to be a little excessive, although he lacks wit and adaptability, for a child less than ten years old, his performance is gratifying.
"Don't mention the troublesome things, what is her origin?" Mother glanced at the Red Devil in the distance.
"A pirate leader in Cardolan." Chen Fang sighed.
"What's wrong with you? It was even related to pirates. "Mother's fierce lesson, collusion with pirates is not a trivial matter, once it is exposed, although the Chen family can suppress the matter, it is difficult to hide the public, and it is inevitable that the reputation will be damaged.
"Do you think I want to? I can't even hide! Not your good father, my good grandfather, for the sake of the overall situation of the expedition, I decided to adopt her. Chen Fang frowned.
"I'll be co-opted, why should I stuff it for you?" Mother interrupted angrily.
"Can't you wait for me to finish before making a high statement? At first, I was also pushing, but our beloved Secretary of State said that this woman was from the Shatu clan. The Shatu clan originally served the empire, and they were brave and good at fighting, and they were also very meritorious. When the Chen family eradicated the old enemy, the Shatu clan was affected by the Zhulian, at that time they were on an expedition to escape the catastrophe, got the news, knew that they would die after returning to China, so they stayed in Flement to be pirates, although the grass fell into the grass, but they were bent on returning to their homeland, so when the grandfather surrendered, the Shatu clan opened such conditions. "Chen Fang is not without regret, but it is just a pity, not to mention anything else, in the Aojia Empire, there are countless cases of the same, and it has long been numb.
The difference between the Shatu clan is that they first escaped by luck, and although they became pirates, they were not willing to fall, and then the people worked hard to finally give the family a chance to see the light of day.
"It's really pitiful that a loyal martyr is mixed up with this. These warriors did not hesitate to spill their blood, and even cost the lives of their children to fight for the country, not for the glory lintel, the glory should be what they deserved. Helplessly, they don't know anything about politics, like headless flies, bumping into each other, and often end up in pieces. Although it is not a big deal, and the Shatu clan is only connected, but after all, the Chen family is involved, who dares to sympathize with them? If it is not the Chen family, when the Shatu clan will never see the light of day again, what is their ability, can they be of great use? The mother, who was overflowing with compassion, agreed with the Secretary of State's decision.
"It's okay in terms of ability, depending on how to use it." Chen Fang didn't think that thousands of people could be of great use, although he agreed with the Red Devils' abilities.
"Then leave her behind, after all, she took the initiative to defect to you, and she is the force that truly belongs to you. Your grandfather is too, just knowing how to help others, he forgot his daughter's birthday. In the blink of an eye, my mother became a resentful woman again.
"My grandfather said he was coming in the morning, and he was almost supposed to arrive, perhaps, he was entangled in the matter of the anti-terrorism team." Chen put weak comfort.
At the door, a guard quietly informed Chen Bowei of the news of the Secretary of State's visit.
"What are they doing here? Is the Chen family's wine so delicious? Chen Bowei frowned slightly, and there were also General Rah, the director of the National Security Bureau, Bruce and others, and even the head of state, except for Bruce who is a member of the Chen family, the rest of the people have no contact with the Chen family, and Chen Fang's mother is not a political dignitary, so they have no reason to join in the fun, unless the secretary of state pulls them in to support their grandson.
Thinking of this, Chen Bowei was slightly displeased, a few officials, plus a puppet head of state, couldn't get into his eyes, and he didn't like the way his in-laws did, but after thinking about it, with the old way of the secretary of state, he couldn't do such a childish thing, this is not like the level of the old fox, let's take a look first.
Although he was unhappy, Chen Bowei still sat down first, waiting for the distinguished guests to come, as expected, his appearance immediately made the atmosphere dull, the initial excitement was swept away, people did not dare to speak loudly, one by one nervously looked at him, as if he was watching, but also waiting for him to say something.
Usually, the appearance of the current head of the family has major events announced, and most of the things he announces are closely related to the fate of the Chen family's heirs, and even affect the situation of the empire.
After a short effort, the Secretary of State and others arrived, as if they didn't notice the strange atmosphere of the banquet, and found Chen Bowei as usual, and then explained the reason for Jiang Qing and others, for official business.
Jiang Qing understood the balance very well, and like everyone else, he left the Führer's guard outside and took the Chen family's special car to travel. The arrogant General Rahe also appeared to be well-behaved, and took the initiative to apologize for his sudden visit and disturbing the banquet.
