Chapter 55: The Three Princes Visit
Chen Hao walked alone on the stone bridge north of the garden gate, watching the fish swimming freely under the water, it was already evening at this moment, and the sunset was reflected in the whole sky. Since there is no noise from the stone lion city, the cool autumn breeze slowly blows through the sleep, causing ripples. Chen Hao, who was standing on the stone bridge, couldn't help but squint his eyes and feel the rare silence in the past few days.
"Brother Chen Hao. Chen Hao was closing his eyes and feeling this long-lost tranquility, when the voice of the third prince came from the door, and Chen Hao also collected his mind and went out to greet him.
"Third prince, you're finally here. Chen Hao walked out with a smile and said, "Third prince, hurry up and please." The national teacher is also inside, please. There are two people who came to visit. The third prince beckoned Chen Hao not to worry, and said with a smile: "Brother Chen Hao, are you satisfied with the place that the eldest brother found for you?" Chen Hao also responded with a smile: "The third prince really treats Chen Hao well, and it is really rare to have such a beautiful landscape garden in the north." What's more, the decoration structure is so careful. Chen Hao really opened his eyes. When the third prince heard this, he said: "This kind of place was renovated by the royal family from other places with a lot of money. If you like it, brother, you can. ”
Chen Hao was also stunned when he heard this, and said it casually, but he didn't expect the three princes to really send each other. It seems that these three princes are also willing to do whatever it takes to win them over. But Chen Hao's heart moved, and then he said: "I really can't afford it, and I can't do anything without merit." I didn't do anything for the prince, but I was ashamed to keep accepting your gifts from the prince. ”
The national teacher took a step forward at this time and pretended to be jealous and said: "The third prince is really very good to Brother Chen Hao, the old man, I have been running around with the third prince for so many years, but the third prince has nothing for the old man." Hey...."The third prince also smiled and said, "Hahaha Wen Lao, don't say that." You are highly respected. If you want such a small courtyard, you don't just open your mouth. My father gave it to you. You are saying that Brother Chen Hao will not accept my intentions. The national teacher also smiled and looked at Chen Hao and said, "How can Brother Chen Hao refuse the prince's kindness." Right?"
Chen Hao looked at the two of them singing and harmonizing, and his heart was like a mirror. These three princes and the national teacher are also explaining their desire to win over themselves late at night. He sighed secretly in his heart and said, "That's nature." It's just that I don't know if I don't get things done for the three princes in the house of the three princes, will the three princes get me out?"
"Hahaha, if the matter can't be done, just do your best to obey the destiny of heaven, but your friend and my third prince have made a deal, won't you look down on me?"
"What are these words? The third prince is a royal family, and I am really flattered by the commoners. The third prince still explained the matter of tomorrow's banquet, right?" Chen Hao saw that the third prince had a resolute attitude, and it was not easy to refuse, so he immediately shifted the topic to the palace banquet. The third prince also said, "Oh, that's right. Let's get down to business. Have you seen these servants behind me, these people are all responsible for taking care of your diet and daily life in the past few months, you can rest assured that you can cultivate, and if you need to be instructed, you can go down. ”
Chen Hao looked back, and a crowd of more than thirty people stood behind the third prince, plus more than a hundred elite soldiers. Chen Hao instantly refused: "The third prince, there are too many people. I don't need a soldier to protect me. And there are too many servants for this one. Leaving one cooking with two or three cleaning people is definitely enough. The third prince said: "This courtyard is a royal courtyard, and there is a lot of space in it, and the cleaning of these people is much less than usual." These elite soldiers are my henchmen, you can rest assured. All of them have the cultivation of the fourth level of human rank. The two leading ones are both sixth-order human ranks, one in the early stage and one in the late stage. They also have a way of contacting the elite soldiers in my house. Very safe. There will definitely be no one to invade and disturb your cultivation. ”
Chen Hao also smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Third prince, these people are really redundant, I have been used to being alone for so many years, but I can't get used to so many people for a while." You'd better take back your fate. Take it back to the soldiers. ”
The three princes resolutely opposed the withdrawal of all the soldiers, and Chen Hao argued with the three princes for a long time. Seeing that Chen Hao was really stubborn, coupled with Chen Hao's consideration from childhood to adulthood, the three princes and Chen Hao reached a consensus and decided to record more than 30 soldiers and more than a dozen servants. Chen Hao saw that the matter had finally been resolved, and he also breathed a sigh of relief.
The third prince then continued: "This royal banquet is actually to invite everyone from several major families to come to reminisce and contact feelings. In the future, everyone will be the leaders of the major families, and they will be familiar with it in advance, and the major families will agree on the treasure hunt time, as well as the rewards and punishments for the treasure hunt results. You know that. However, you are going with me this time to represent the royal family and me, and I hope that you will not have conflicts with the people of the Chen family in the palace at that time. But don't worry, if someone makes things difficult for you, I won't sit idly by. ”
Chen Hao also nodded when he heard this, and said, "This third prince can rest assured, I, Chen Hao, can distinguish the priorities of things." It will definitely not cause trouble to the three princes. The third prince also smiled when he heard this, patted Chen Hao's shoulder and said, "Brother, you don't have to be nervous. Just a simple banquet. Chen Hao also agreed.
The third prince continued to explain: "There are these families participating this time: the leader of the royal family, the Chen family, the Zhang family, the Gu family, the Zheng family, and the Lin family. These families must have heard about it when you participated in the Chen Family Competition, right?"
"Well, the third prince. I got it. It's all counted as old acquaintances. I also know about the Lin family, which is only one of the seven families of the four major families. After a long hiatus, this year I want to participate in a treasure hunt. It may also be a fierce rival. These acquaintances are not to be afraid, and the unknown is more dangerous. This person has to pay extra attention during the treasure hunt. Chen Hao also said solemnly.
"Well, that's right. After all, I have never heard of the Lin family. But it's not in the way, and you can try the depth of the dinner when the time comes. The third prince said lightly. Chen Hao also smiled: "It seems that the third prince's meal is not delicious." The third prince also smiled after hearing this.
The third prince said, "Are you ready? I have one more thing to remind you. Chen Chen's strength is the lowest among all the talents of the four major families. This is also the reason why the Chen family has declined over the years. Do you see what I mean?"
How could Chen Hao not know the meaning of the third prince's words, that is, he didn't think that defeating Chen Chen would be arrogant. Chen Chen can also be easily defeated in the eyes of the leaders of the major families. This hint is obvious to Chen Hao. Chen Hao said with a smile: "Third prince, I, Chen Hao, can defeat Chen Chen, and I may not be a good bone for them." If they had an idea for me, I wouldn't mind snapping out a few of their teeth. ”
When the Three Kingdoms Master heard this, he also smiled and said, "Brother Chen Hao is really young and vigorous." Well, just go and see the rest of the people. Chen Hao didn't take his words to heart when he saw the third prince, so it didn't matter. I thought to myself: "It's not a bad thing that everyone thinks I'm a good persimmon." Everyone will let their guard down on me, and when the time comes, I can pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger when the time comes to hunt for treasure. Thinking of this, Chen Hao also stopped talking with the third prince.
The third prince walked to the door and said, "Oh, by the way, there is one more thing. This treasure hunt requires a lot of elixirs and anti-poison medicines, so you don't have to worry. I've got it for you. After the dinner is over, you can come with me to my dormitory to get it. Chen Hao also clenched his fists when he heard this: "Then the third prince of Lao will bother." After the third prince finished speaking, he also left first. Before leaving, he didn't forget to ask Chen Hao: "Don't forget tomorrow night, I will send a beast cart to pick you up in the evening." ”
"Yes, I won't forget. Three princes, national teachers. We will not send it far. Walk slowly" Chen Hao also sent the third prince out slowly, touched his flat stomach, and said self-deprecatingly: "Hey, I coped with it for a day." I forgot to eat. Let's head to the kitchen and find something to eat. Chen Hao also walked into the door.
