284 I am not a fool
Chen Zeyi and Chen Guangrong are preparing to return to the Aurora Kingdom, and they are bidding farewell to Chen Xiansong.
Seeing Ze Long'er coming in, Chen Zeyi stood up, clasped his fists and saluted slightly, and said, "Young City Lord, I haven't seen you for a few days, I didn't expect to see you here, it's really a coincidence." ”
Chen Guangrong also stood up and bowed slightly. Although he is more arrogant and does not like to give in to his peers, but this is someone else's territory, they only temporarily leased a small piece of land at a high price, and according to the agreement, they have to accept the rules of the city lord's mansion for protection and surveillance. In contrast, Chen Xiansong's territory is different, he is a real nobleman in the Kate Kingdom, although the title is not high, but coupled with the transcendent status of the soul contemplative, he is already an independent lord in law.
"It's a great coincidence." Ze Long'er smiled and said to Chen Xiansong on the side: "A few days ago, we have already found out that the salt was corrupted by a guard, and now it has been executed by my father, this matter is not our fault, so ......"
He took the land deed out of his bosom, placed it on the table, and said, "As a sign of apology, my father asked me to give you another mountain near here, and promised that nothing like this would happen again." Since you still have guests, then I won't bother, yesterday afternoon, Black Rock City will be closed for a period of time until it is safe, if you have anything, you can do it first, it really can't work, I can handle it for you. ”
"Help keep an eye on the safety of the guild personnel." Chen Xiansong raised his glass.
"No problem." Zeloner nodded, and then left.
Looking at the land deed on the table, Chen Zeyi was very envious. The people of the Kingdom of Aurora have a natural preference for land, and if they have a very high value and a piece of land that is not too valuable, they will prefer it. In their view, the property will eventually run out, and the land in hand, as long as they work hard, their children and grandchildren will have something to eat.
Bai Min stepped forward and put away the land deed. Chen Zeyi and Chen Guangrong both found that Bai Min no longer seemed to be as cold as before, although he was still an iceberg beauty, but at least it would no longer make people feel unbearable.
"Guangrong and I are leaving here tonight. I don't know if I will come back in the future. I don't know if there will be a chance to meet Your Excellency in the future. Chen Zeyi raised his glass: "But as long as Your Excellency returns to Aurora Country in the future, I hope you must come to our Chen family as a guest, no matter what, you are also our Chen family's fast son-in-law." ”
Chen Xiansong raised his glass and bumped into Chen Zeyi. Smiled: "That's nature, as long as there is a chance." It's better for you to leave now. It's going to be a battlefield soon. You should have seen when you came that our whole village was preparing for war, and I told you about it yesterday, so you should know about it, right? Personally, I think it's better for your people to come to me, though I don't dare to say that everyone is safe. But at least it's safer than yours. ”
"Your Excellency, please rest assured." Chen Zeyi smiled and said, "Guangrong and I left, and only took a dozen people with us." There will be more than 60 remaining family soldiers to protect Yixing. ”
"More than sixty people!" Chen Xiansong shook his head: "Too little." Uncle Chen, it's not that I'm talking badly. It's not that I deliberately cursed you, with the character of Tachibana Thorn, if he can't get benefits from my side, he will definitely vent his resentment on your side, more than sixty people, it's really too few, just barely reaching the number of my escorts here, and the other thing is that if your people come to us, everyone can hold them together, and the losses can be minimized. ”
In Chen Xiansong's view, although he and his eldest brother are a little unhappy, no matter what, these are matters that matter the first life, and the small contradictions will be put aside first, and the foreign enemy will be solved first. It's just that he still hasn't really figured out the meaning of the word human heart.
"Well, I think you have a point." Chen Zeyi snorted, and then said: "I'll go back later, and I'll talk to Yixing about this, but he is a little proud, and he may not be able to listen to it." ”
"No matter how important face is, it's not as important as life." Chen Xiansong sighed. Human life in the Dark Ages was not valuable, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, starving, exhausting, dying in battle, countless people died every day, and dying of old age was a luxury for many people.
Yes, Chen Zeyi agreed. Chen Guangrong continued to drink milk tea, and only occasionally interjected a sentence or two. Because Chen Xiansong is also very busy now, he told him that they would not go to see each other off when they left, and before the two left the castle, Chen Xiansong routinely gave some small things as a farewell gift.
Then Chen Xiansong returned to his study and began to deal with some affairs at home, he always felt as if he had missed something that seemed to be a little important, but he never remembered it. In the evening, after dinner, when he watched Chen Zeyi's carriage leave on the balcony, he realized that Chen Zeyi's expression was a little wrong, as if he didn't take Chen Guangde's safety to heart, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he went up to the fourth floor and knocked on Huilian's door.
"Husband, please come in." Huilian pursed her lips, a little nervous, but also a little expectant: "This is the first time you have entered my room, do you need me to serve?" The little woman also has a lot of experience in loosening her muscles and activating her nerves. ”
Hui Lian's room is the most luxurious, under the curtain made of transparent silk, the pink sheet of the woman's house is faintly visible. Chen Xiansong breathed a faint fragrance of lotus flowers, looked at the girl with a shy posture, and was in a trance, and then calmed down and said, "Huilian, I came here to have something very important to talk to you about. ”
In the girl's somewhat surprised gaze, Chen Xiansong said his worries again, and then Huilian's face turned white, Chen Guangde is her eldest brother no matter what she says, although he is a little unkind, he can be from childhood to adulthood, and he has not spoiled her less, she said: "Thank you husband for reminding me, I will go and talk to my eldest brother about this." ”
"I'll go down with you."
When the two arrived at the door, Chen Xiansong called Balf and said, "You go and ask Fina to come over and bring a dozen people to protect Huilian." After she finished talking to Chen Guangde, no matter what the result was, let her bring Huilian back, if anyone dares to stop it, it doesn't hurt to do it directly, as long as you don't do things too much, I will bear the consequences. ”
When Balf heard this, he said, "Master, you are afraid of ......"
"Uncle is too proud, I'm afraid that he will be misled by some people, and his head will not be able to turn around." Chen Xiansong sighed.
Huilian was on the side, listening to the conversation between the two, she was a little moved, and knew that Chen Xiansong was for her own good. She took two steps forward, gently tugged at Chen Xiansong's sleeve, bowed her head and said: "Husband, marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog, I will persuade the eldest brother this time, I will come back after speaking, and it will not make it difficult for you." ”
Many people advocate a state of love without much words, but it takes both men and women to get along for a long time to do, for many ignorant young boys and girls, love needs to be said. Huilian used words to express her willingness to become a part of this family in the future, as if she had let go of the big stone in her heart.
Fina soon came over and escorted Huilian into the carriage.
Chen Guangde was at home, and the snow salt had just been delivered from the association, and he watched the servant weigh it, and when he was sure that the weight was completely correct and seemed to be a little more, he nodded with satisfaction. The sixth uncle has already left, and it will be up to him to decide here in the future, two hundred kilograms of snow salt per day, which can move any big family.
It was already dark, and he asked the beautiful maid to bring him wine and side dishes, and ate them happily, humming two little songs from time to time. Chen Zhenming studied ancient scriptures in other rooms, and on this trip, he invited two teachers from private schools to come over at a high price to take charge of his son's schoolwork.
While he was having fun, a servant came in from outside and told Miss Thirteen to ask to see her outside. Chen Guangde was a little happy to hear his sister come to the door, but when he thought of the resentment he received in Chen Xiansong a few days ago, he suddenly became annoyed again, and he wanted to say no, but after thinking about it, he still asked the servant to invite his sister in.
"How are these two days, big brother?" Hui Lian bowed gently.
Chen Guangde looked at Fei Na behind Huilian, as well as several other guards, and his face became more and more unhappy: "Why, when you come to visit the door of the eldest brother, you still have to bring bodyguards, are you afraid that I will harm you?" ”
"Big brother misunderstood." Huilian lowered her head and said, "My husband is worried that it is not safe for me to walk at night, so he specially asked Ms. Fina to escort me, and there is no other meaning. ”
Fina is a very good-looking sorceress, Chen Guangde glanced at him twice, and then said: "Come here so late, you must have something urgent, say it quickly." A married woman can't just stay outside at night. ”
"Big brother, husband, please come to your house tomorrow." Hui Lian said softly: "Maybe in a few days, there will be a large army over there from the Tatebana Thorn, and it will definitely not be safe here, the husband has already set up a defense line at the bottom of the mountain, which can keep everyone safe, and the eldest brother will be a guest at home for a few days, and it is not too late to deal with business affairs when it is safe." ”
"Hmph, why didn't he invite him?" Chen Guangde sneered: "Uncle Sixth has already talked to me about this matter, there are only more than three hundred rangers, are you so anxious?" I brought a group of elite good men over, and then put down the horses at the foot of the mountain, and there were not one or two thousand people, so I didn't want to take advantage of me. ”
Huilian was anxious: "Big brother, why are you so stubborn, the sixth uncle is obviously lying to you." He definitely didn't tell you that Xueyan's business was the masterwork of Fujun, and he definitely wouldn't tell you that it was our Chen family who returned me to Fujun...... It was your Chen family who took a big advantage. ”
"What are you talking about?" Chen Guangde's face darkened: "You are really confused by Chen Xiansong's little white face, go back quickly, and come to me when you are sober." If snow salt is Chen Xiansong's masterpiece, is he willing to give us 200 catties a day? Why didn't he monopolize this business for himself? Are you a fool when I can't do it? (To be continued......)
