Chapter 70: The Insidious Villain

The door is not blown.

In the Beishanbao Hundred Households, the Jin family, the Cheng family, and the Li family were originally respected, and the three families almost monopolized the official positions of the general banner and the hundred households.

Pushing down, the Chen family is also a leader.

Chen Jinshi is 35 years old at Chinese New Year's Eve, has been in the army for 18 years, and has sufficient qualifications. He spent a lot of money and asked for help, and he got the official position of the general flag.

In one fell swoop, he became the third person in the 100 households, which is in the limelight.

Like Wu Nian, he was raised from a small flag to a general flag. He also rode a good horse, and in the sound of preaching, blowing, blowing, and beating, and in the awe-inspiring eyes of the military household of Beishan Fort, he returned to his mansion after the lively horseback riding parade.

The Chen family's mansion is also Sanjin.

However, his family is much more lively than Wu Nian's family. In addition to his wife, Chen Jinshi also has eight concubines, five sons, and six daughters, of which the eldest son has already married a wife.

This house is lively, but it is very crowded.

But no matter what, today the Chen family is raising their eyebrows. Up and down the house, the lights are colorful, and they are busy for the noon banquet.

Chen Jinshi turned over and dismounted, entered the door with the housekeeper, and looked at the lively scene in the house, and couldn't help but be complacent.

But Chen Jinshi remembered something, and his face suddenly became ugly.

"Daddy." At this time, the youngest son Chen Guinian rushed over with his little short legs and hugged his legs. Chen Jinshi let go of what was in his heart, showed a big smile, bent down and picked up his little son, and after making love for a while, he handed his son over to the nurse who caught up.

He winked at the butler, and together they came to the hall and sat down.

"Is the man coming?" Chen Jinshi was a little thirsty, so he asked the maid to make a cup of tea. Raise your head and ask the butler.

"Here we are." The butler nodded, and then hesitated: "Master." This Wu Nian is too violent. Li Ding's death is unknown, Cheng Gao and his wife are missing, and there are no bones. Now he has recruited 800 house slaves, and he is in the limelight for a while. I don't think it's good for you to do that. ”

Chen Jinshi's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this, and his face showed a little fear. But soon he held his head high and sneered: "Don't worry, since that person is here." I can overpower Wu Nian. ”

"Hey." The housekeeper felt unreliable, but seeing that Chen Jinshi had made up his mind, he could only sigh, bow to Chen Jinshi, and turn around.

At this time, the maid walked in with a tea cup.

"Master, the freshly brewed tea is very hot, you should be careful." The maid reminded softly.

"Hmm." Chen Jinshi nodded, asked the maid to put the teacup on the coffee table, lifted the lid and put it, and only after it was cold did he take a small sip of the teacup and drink it.

He drank tea and thought about it in his heart.

People's thoughts and ways of dealing with the world will change with the passage of time and the change of their own status.

After Wu Nian strongly confronted Cheng Gao, and later Cheng Gao disappeared without explanation.

Chen Jinshi is also afraid of Wu Nian, just like Zhu Xiaoqi. He was respectful of Wu Nian.

But when he sat on the official position of the general flag, he felt a strong discomfort.

He ate military pay and drank soldiers' blood, but the soldiers and horses under Wu Nian's command did not give him food or drink.

Of course, he can also tolerate Wu Nian, as if nothing happened, and eat the military salaries and blood of the other four small banners.

But he was not reconciled, he felt that he could do it.

Because the man came.

He can fight Wu Nian by force.

"The new official took office with three fires. Wu Nian. At this banquet, I'll give you a dismount. Train you well and let you know what the general flag is and what the small flag is. ”

Chen Jinshi made up his mind in his heart to convince Wu Nian, a mad dog.

There was still a period of time before noon, and after Chen Jinshi made up his mind, he calmed down, drank the tea slowly, and then went to the bedroom, just hugged the concubine in the blue sky and daytime, and slept for a while and went back to sleep.

It's about the same by noon.

Chen Jinshi sat in the hall by himself, as steady as a big Buddha, and asked the housekeeper to go out to greet the guests.

Wu Nian and Zhang Jin came to the gate of the Chen family together, and the housekeeper who was in charge of welcoming the guests immediately walked up with a smile on his face.

"Wu Xiaoqi, please come in."

Wu Nian didn't know about that mess. I didn't make up this money, so I always have to bring gifts to the door, right? He raised his hand, handed the butler a delicate rectangular box, and said, "Gift." ”

"Lord Xiaoqi is polite. I'm acting for you, thank you. The butler didn't smile, stretched out his hand to take the gift, and then invited Wu Nian to walk in.

Today, a table of wine was set up in the courtyard of the inner house. Wu Nian went in, and Zhang Jin made another arrangement.

Wu Nian didn't think much about it. When I arrived at the compound, I saw that the wine table was already full of people.

"My brother, you said you weren't late, but you were still late. Three drinks later. Wu Dangkou seemed to be a Maitreya Buddha, and his laughter trembled slightly.

"It's too late, I'll punish myself with three glasses later." Wu Nian said very boldly.

"Brother." Immediately, Wu Nian came to the edge of the big round table, saw that there was an empty seat next to Li Kun, sat down, and bowed to Li Kun.

"Some peanuts." Li Kun smiled, spread out his palm to reveal a peanut in his hand, and gave half of it to Wu Nian.

Wu Nian had nothing to do, so he also ate peanuts while chatting with Li Kun and others.

Although Wu Nian came late, some people came later than Wu Nian. After everyone arrived, the protagonist Chen Jinshi also came out.

The slaves and maids also brought all the hot wine and food in one go, and filled the wine table.

Chen Jinshi stood up, pinched the wine cup, and said to everyone: "Today is my big day, thank you brothers for appreciating the light." I'm here to toast my brothers. ”

Everyone naturally gave face to Chen Jinshi, the protagonist, and stood up and raised the wine cup one after another, and drank the wine cup with him.

"Brothers, don't be polite, eat and drink well." After Chen Jinshi sat down, he said to everyone with a smile.

"Wait. Before eating and drinking, someone has to punish himself with three cups. Wu Dangkou looked at Wu Nian with a smile and said.

"Hahaha. That's right. ”

"Our Wu Xiaoqi is the god of wine in the world, and this small wine cup is probably not enough to drink. Do you want to change the bowl? ”

One by one, the little flags began to coax.

"Brothers. Forget the big bowl, just the wine cup. Wu Nian hurriedly asked the gang to stop, and then poured his own wine, and drank three wine cups in a row.

It's a little meaning, and it doesn't feel at all.

Everyone knows that it is in the 100 households. Except for Li Kun, the rest of the officials are afraid of Wu Nian, and the coaxing is just a superficial giggle.

Chen Jinshi used to be too.

Now he doesn't have to hide it.

And. He also wants the fear of others.

A cold flicker flashed in Chen Jinshi's eyes.
