Chapter 47: The Old Man
With Chen Tianze, an authentic cook, in charge, the kitchen was obviously much easier, but because Luo Qi smashed the stove in a fit of anger, Chen Tianze could only pick it up again.
The atmosphere outside the first floor was obviously much better, and Wang Chenhua and several sons and buddies also began to chat one sentence at a time. As for the kitchen, Wang Chuxue was also chattering, but her eyes kept on Chen Tianze.
Through the dialogue between Wang Yatou and the master's sister, Chen Tianze also learned that Luo Qi actually stayed in the Zuixuan Pavilion directly last night, although he was embarrassed when he saw Wang Yatou in the early morning, but fortunately, Luo Qi was Wang Chuxue's master after all, so he could naturally say anything.
After the prepared meal was brought to the table, Wang Yatou and Luo Qi went upstairs and went to Chen Tianze's room, not knowing what they were muttering, and gave the hall on the first floor to Wang Chenhua and them to a great extent.
Wang Chenhua originally wanted to bring a few fox friends to get to know Chen Tianze, but he never thought that because of the appearance of a Wang Chuxue, this group of sons and buddies who usually have eyes above the top will be greatly shocked.
A banquet that was supposed to be a mutual test of acquaintance turned into a seminar for the boys to discuss the secrets of pickling girls.
Chen Tianze's craftsmanship is good, even the second ancestors who are used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas on weekdays are full of praise, Wang Chenhua even raised his thumb and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, if you are a girl, I will definitely marry you home." ”
Chen Tianze, who was dealing with a plate of beef, rolled his eyes and replied: "If you are a girl, then you have to go as far as you want." ”
The crowd burst into laughter, not feeling inappropriate in the slightest.
Wang Chenhua is not surprised, as if it is appropriate to be ridiculed, after all, they have all seen Miss Wang's domineering, how can the person who can make Miss Wang commit to him, how can it be an ordinary role.
After three rounds of drinking, Chen Tianze leaned on the chair and squinted at these people, Chang Hong and Wu Haoyi, who had seen him in Xunxian Mansion before, were both there, and there were a few more sons and brothers who talked well.
It seems that these people can talk very well, and the topic can also be related from the current situation of the Holy Empire to the majestic waves of the girl in Xunxian Tower, they are all unruly masters.
Chen Tianze hesitated for a while, then turned his head and said slowly: "Brother Wang, this is the second time we have drunk, and it seems that there are no outsiders, I want to ask you some things as a brother." ”
As soon as these words came out, Wang Chenhua immediately nodded, his expression full of joy.
It can be seen that Chen Tianze is not simple, and he is involved in the Wang family, so he can naturally attract attention, and regardless of his identity, Wang Chenhua is very satisfied with his words and demeanor alone.
Wang Chenhua is the eldest son of the Wang family in the north of the city in Bingzhou, he has been in charge of most of the family's business at a young age, and he is also very smart, and the business is booming.
It is said that Wang Chenhua is upright and extremely conceited, but anyone who is pleasing to the eye at first glance will be regarded as siblings, and those who are not pleasing to the eye at first sight, even if you are the king of heaven, don't expect me to be close to you.
And today, Wang Chenhua personally brought a large group of sons and brothers to this small wine shop, which is enough to explain his attitude.
"Qin Huotang, I don't know if Brother Wang has heard of it. Chen Tianze paused for a moment and said softly.
As soon as these words came out, not only Wang Chenhua, but everyone present was shocked, and the atmosphere in the hall was instantly depressed.
Wang Chenhua hesitated, frowned and asked, "Why did Brother Chen suddenly ask about this?"
"It seems that Brother Wang has heard of it. Chen Tianze laughed, then waved his hand and said: "Brother Wang, don't worry, I have nothing to do with Qin Huotang, let alone any grievances, I only hear people talk about it occasionally, so I am a little curious." ”
Wang Chenhua breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, frowned and said softly: "Qin Huotang is a small gang in Bingzhou City, and no one knows the specific number. It's just that I heard that this Qin Huotang does some shady things all day long, and it is common to kill people or something. ”
Chen Tianze smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
Seeing Chen Tianze's behavior like this, Wang Chenhua knew that this was not what Chen Tianze wanted, so he immediately gritted his teeth, lowered his head and said softly: "Qin Huotang is the foundation of the Sima family, and there are county guards behind him, and they are all smuggling and murder and arson, and the means are extremely cruel, I don't know how many powerful people have died in the hands of Qin Huotang over the years." ”
Only then did Chen Tianze restrain his smile and frowned, "What kind of status is this Sima family?"
"His ancestor is the leader of the Divine Emperor's ** Department, and he is also the sacrifice of the Xuelu Mountain Temple. Wu Haoyi on the side said quickly.
Chen Tianze couldn't help but be shocked, the military department and the priesthood?
"Brother Chen, does your ruling order have anything to do with Qin Huotang?" Wang Chenhua looked at the stunned Chen Tianze and wondered.
Chen Tianze laughed, did not admit or deny it, just picked up the wine glass, and said with a smile: "It is fate to meet the big guy here today, and it will be regarded as fate, in the future, the big guy will greet me if he has something, and he will definitely not refuse!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone picked up their wine glasses, even the smart Wang Chenhua didn't ask anymore, just smiled and picked up the wine glasses and drank them all.
――
Zhiwei Book House.
On the empty second floor, there was only a slightly old figure, waving a feather duster in his hand, cleaning the dust off the bookshelves over and over again.
"What does this mean?"
A tall man quickly climbed to the second floor and looked at the old man cleaning with an angry expression.
"I said Sima Yi, you're not young, why are you still so irritable?" Lao Huang still waved the feather duster in his hand, wiped the dust on it, and said softly.
"How can I not be irritable, your adjudicator is really idle, what kind of ruling order, and the special mother is against my Sima family!" The middle-aged man known as Sima Yi casually dropped a crumpled red ruling order, angry.
"I didn't make this order. Lao Huang turned around, picked up the ruling order on the ground, and said softly: "It's the meaning of the top." ”
Sima Yi was stunned for a moment, his expression became solemn, and he wondered, "Tuoba Yi?"
Lao Huang waved his hand, indicating that he didn't know anything.
"He Tuoba Yi really thinks that he is in power, and he has started to clean up the portal, then he is too underestimated by our Sima family," Sima Yi said with a gloomy face.
Lao Huang just casually put the feather duster at his feet, then slowly sat on the ground, squinted his eyes and said: "How do I know about the grievances between you, but don't worry, although the ruling order has been issued from above, it's just that this time I said that the ruling order was transferred to a stunned young man, so that no one will delay, I believe you can handle these things well." ”
Sima Yi was puzzled for a moment, then relieved, and sneered: "Lao Huang, you are smart, the ruling order is issued, then it proves that you have not disobeyed the will of the superiors, as for whether it is completed or not, it depends on the adjudicator who takes over the ruling order." It's really not to be offended at both ends. ”
Lao Huang just smiled and didn't make a sound.
"Okay, I'm bothered about this matter today, I should go back, and I have time to invite you to drink!" Sima Yi turned around and left without saying a word.
Lao Huang sat alone on the floor, leaning against the bookshelf, and pulled out a stack of materials, and the word 'Chen' was written on the cover of the materials.
"Sima family, what kind of big waves can a small military department make? Do you really think you're amazing?" Old Huang glanced at the empty staircase with a disdainful expression.
Then, turning over the materials in his hand, the first page was the kinship chart of the Chen family in Bingzhou ten years ago, and Chen Tianze's name was at the top of the second line.
"The Chen family, whether you can rise or not depends on this time, don't let me, a bad old man, down. ”
Lao Huang slowly closed his eyes, and a pair of rough hands gently stroked the heavy stack of materials, as if he was caught in a heavy memory.
