Chapter Twenty-Three: Good Confidence!
Inside the court, a huge palace was covered with paper, and a round-faced strange man with a face as white as dough was constantly writing something with pen and ink, and he was writing very fast, like a printing press.
The area of the newly built palace is too small, resulting in many concubines having no exclusive palaces, which is very shabby, but this strange person is assigned a concubine-level palace alone.
I saw that the strange man's busy hands and feet suddenly paused, looked at the white paper in front of him in a daze, paused for a few seconds, and then smiled: "Interesting....."
Then wrote: Chen Qing, a new science and technology jinshi, recruited Wei Gongcheng, the disabled son of the Wei family.
After writing, the white paper instantly turned into a paper crane, and the next second it flew out of the hall like a living bird, and the scene in the palace was too strange to look closely, countless paper cranes and white rabbits turned into white paper ran out of the hall automatically, and the guards outside the hall were all black-armored guards who were responsible for recording outside.
-----------------------------------
"Lord Chen, this is ...... Soliciting me? ”
The other party asked very bluntly, Chen Qing didn't expect it, he was slightly stunned, it seems that the other party is a military general even if he is delicate, and he doesn't like to cut around the corner.
But it's okay.....
Chen Qing nodded calmly: "If the general thinks so, it's okay!" ”
"Ha ....." Wei Gongcheng suddenly smiled, he didn't look down on the other party, although this young man was just a newcomer to officialdom, but his wisdom was outstanding, in his opinion, his qualifications were not inferior to Wang Ye, even if he didn't have the talent of a warlock, he would definitely not be bad in the court in the future.
It's just that now, when there is nothing, you come to recruit yourself, do you think too highly of yourself?
"General Wei is unwilling?" Looking at the other party's expression, Chen Qing smiled.
"Why does Lord Chen think Wei will be willing?" Wei Gongcheng looked at each other amusedly.
"Guess ....." Chen Qing looked at Wei Chipeng's position, and said lightly: "Lord Wang mentioned to me about General Wei, General Wei's concubine, but his qualifications far exceed that of his son-in-law, at the age of only nine, he became the deputy general of the previous generation of Wei Chi family masters, and assisted two generations of Wei Chi family masters in a row, with a bright future, if nothing else, with General Wei Chi being promoted to the commander of the forbidden army, you are at least a deputy commander!" ”
"Such an overly shining performance, no matter how generous the master is, he will be dissatisfied when he thinks about it, right?"
Wei Gongcheng's smile stiffened, and he looked at Chen Qing faintly: "My lord has investigated clearly. ”
Indeed, his qualifications that have been too shining since he was a child have made several brothers very targeted, if it wasn't for the fact that the head of the Wei Chi family valued him and brought himself to the military camp in advance, he was afraid that if he didn't grow up, he would be tortured to death by his mother.
After all, in a big family, it is taboo for a concubine to be too strong!
If he can maintain the momentum all the time, as the other party said, and follow Lord Wei Chipeng to become the deputy commander of the forbidden army, then in the future, even if he is a concubine, the right to speak is definitely not comparable to a few brothers-in-law.
But he scrapped himself......
"If General Wei stays in the capital, I'm afraid life will not be easy."
"This is not a matter of concern to Lord Chen!" Wei Gongcheng's expression was cold: "Although Wei is abolished, he has no credit and hard work over the years, and the Wei Chi family will not treat me lightly." ”
"General Wei plans to retire in the Weichi Mansion?" Chen Qing said with a smile: "It may be better than going back to the Wei family, but if Lord Wei Chipeng is not there, it must not be too comfortable, and the name is not right, isn't it?" ”
Wei Gongcheng frowned, looked at Chen Qing for a long time, and finally said, "I'm curious, what did the adults do when they recruited me to be such a waste person?" ”
"Don't be so self-deprecating....." Chen Qing gently patted Wei Gongcheng on the shoulder: "General Wei is a very powerful person, and powerful people should not belittle themselves easily." ”
Wei Gongcheng was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly widened!
The black-armored guard tilted his head suspiciously, looking at Wei Gongcheng, who had reacted a little too aggressively, Chen Qing's words just now wouldn't make the other party so excited, right?
Is it what's going on?
"Lord Chen is here?"
Just in the strange atmosphere, Yu Chipeng's deep voice sounded, Chen Qing looked over, and the tall and burly figure of the other party forced him to look up.
To be honest, this height of less than 1.7 meters after crossing has always been his most dissatisfied point.
"It's for an errand, right?" Wei Chipeng looked at Wei Gongcheng, a trace of shame flashed in his eyes, he strongly opposed the family assigning him a new lieutenant general, but unfortunately he did not oppose it to the end, he knew that once the deputy general was changed, Wei Gongcheng's identity would fall into an extremely embarrassing situation.
"Uh-huh....." Chen Qing nodded: "It's just time to come and worship the old lady." ”
"Please ..... inside." Yu Chipeng led the way, and seemed to be a little afraid to stay with Wei Gongcheng.
After a few people left, Wei Gongcheng was still stunned there, he was stunned not because Wei Chipeng didn't dare to face him, because the other party had been like that since yesterday, he was used to it.
The reason why I was stunned after being excited was because Chen Qing slapped himself just now.
That's definitely not an illusion, the other party just slapped that, and his already numb lower body obviously felt that something had stabbed it!
But the lower half of the body is obviously unconscious, and the imperial doctor has already said that there is basically no hope of recovery, but just now it was .....
The black-armored guard looked at Wei Gongcheng expressionlessly, and after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't tell the name, and after hesitating, he didn't record anything on the paper in the end, and turned his head to follow the footsteps of Chen Qing and his group.
Wei Gongcheng, who was left in a daze, silently recited there: "Liuzhou ......"
----------------------------------------------
"Lord Chen, please take a seat!" Although Wei Chipeng was a martial artist and was also very domineering, he still didn't dare to despise people who even Wei Gongcheng and Wang Ye valued, and poured tea himself.
Chen Qing was slightly stunned, the other party poured a total of three cups of tea, and the last cup was given to the deputy general behind him, but he ignored the guard who followed him.
The guard was sent by the royal family, is it so unkind?
The other party was rude, Chen Qing didn't dare to be rude, and hurriedly poured tea and looked at the person behind him: "This brother is thirsty, right?" Let's moisten your mouth with a cup of tea....."
The guard was slightly stunned and silent, but the new lieutenant general behind Wei Chipeng sneered: "Don't you know this adult? ”
Chen Qing was stunned for a moment, and just wanted to ask what he knew, when he saw the guard blink, his eyes turned pure white, like paper paintings, which made him so shocked that the tea in his hand was almost thrown out.
"Also, adults are not children of the capital, and it is normal to not know some common sense about the capital." The corners of the general's mouth were slightly hooked: "All the black-armored guards in this capital are all the magic dummies of a certain grand warcist in the palace, adults don't care about them....."
"In this way, there are really many wonders in the world....." Chen Qing suddenly realized, but a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
That's not what a trick!
Chen Qing quickly reacted in his heart, the paper painting man, Mr. Origami among the five demon craftsmen!
I didn't expect the court to use a monster to spy on the capital, it's really interesting.....
"Let's get down to business....." Wei Chipeng frowned, he was not used to the arrogant tone of the adjutant general, especially for his friends, even if the other party was from a poor family, but in front of the guests, it was not easy to teach a lesson, so he had to divert the topic.....
"My lord, where are you going to start?"
"Let's ..... from the alternatives" Chen Qing took a sip of tea, nodded and said: "There are only three days left before the crown prince chooses a concubine, and the preparatory candidates must have been implemented, and the thousand-faced fox will inevitably be among them if he wants to disrupt this concubine selection." ”
Wei Chipeng nodded, and just as he wanted to say that it made sense, the deputy general next to him interjected: "Is this little adult too arbitrary?" What if the demon fox was just trying to cause panic, but wasn't willing to risk it? ”
Chen Qing frowned, what is a little adult, how small is he?
"Bow Extension ....." Wei Chipeng's voice carried a hint of coldness: "If there are no rules like this, get back to me!" ”
The lieutenant general was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly got up to confess, wondering in his heart, didn't he say that the general looked down on literati?
Chen Qing pursed the corners of his lips and continued: "I just received a notice to take over the case, and I don't know what the list of concubines is, do you know where to get it?" ”
Wei Chipeng was stunned for a moment, and then buckled his head: "It should be to go to the Ministry of Rites to get it, now that the Ministry of Rites is out of duty, I will take you directly to the Ministry of Rites to get it." ”
Chen Qing was just about to nod, but saw a small group hurriedly running over, handed over a list and said, "Master, General Wei Gongcheng asked you to bring it to you." ”
Chen Qing took a look at it, and then put it on the table: "Is it the list of concubines, or General Wei is careful, and it has been done early." ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Yu Chipeng's eyes when he heard this, yes, since he followed him from the bow journey, he has never bothered about these trivial matters again.
The deputy general named Wei Gongyan next to him was stunned, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, everyone is useless and jumping up and down, is it useful?
"That's a lot of people!" Chen Qing frowned, there are at least hundreds of them on the list, is the royal family in the audition?
How long will this be investigated?
"Master!" Just when Chen Qing was complaining in his heart, the little guy just now hurriedly ran over again.
"What's wrong again?" The adjutant asked impatiently.
"Yes....Yes..... it's Lord Lang Fei of the Criminal Department, who came to the door and said that he wanted to find the master."
"You didn't say it sooner!" The adjutant general's eyes suddenly widened: "Don't hurry up yet, please!" ”
Saying that, he took the little guy to the direction of the gate, and Wei Chipeng behind him frowned, he is not a person who likes to calculate small details, but the newly sent deputy general of the Wei family is really a little unpleasant.....
Chen Qing was also speechless, how did you teach this emotional intelligence at home?
As an outsider, I didn't want to say much, so I had to change the topic and said: "Look at the general's reaction, is this Lord Fei very famous?" ”
"Hmm......" Yu Chipeng nodded: "Now in the court, the most popular one is Wang Ye, and the other is him." ”
"Oh, that's it....."
"You want to recruit Wei Gongcheng?"
"Ahem......" Chen Qing almost choked on a sip of tea: "You can hear it so far away?" ”
"Gong Cheng's heart is not low, I'm afraid it's a little difficult for you to recruit him......"
"Haha, Xia Guan just said that casually......" Chen Qing hurriedly said haha, after all, it was quite embarrassing to be heard clearly by digging the foot of the wall in front of him.
"Thinking that General Wei is in a bad mood, if there is nothing else, you can go to Liuzhou to relax or something, there is no other meaning.....
"If you really want to recruit him, I'll help you say it!"
Chen Qing was stunned for a moment: "Really fake?" ”
"But it's up to you!" Wei Chipeng smiled: "You took this errand, do you know what it represents?" ”
"What does it represent?"
"The representative has become the prefect of Liuzhou, if you don't ....." Yu Chipeng's smile became a little hideous: "I'm afraid that you have to stay in the capital because of your good head!" ”
Chen Qing was stunned, then stood up and saluted solemnly: "Then the general can talk to me, if this case is completed, you can help me persuade and persuade ....."
Yu Chipeng's smile froze, and he looked at the other party in some surprise.
There are so many talented people in the court who don't dare to pack tickets and say that they can find the thousand-faced fox, this kid ..... so confident!!
