Fang Xu, Zhou Shi, Cheng Feng, Chen An, Xu Yuan, Shi Wen, these six people should be regarded as the henchmen of Chen Kan's real henchmen.

In addition to Zhou Shi and Cheng Feng, the other four people and Chen Kan all met at the end of Weimo, and although Cheng Feng was given to him by Zheng He, he gradually emerged in the army after following him.

As for Zhou Shi, grandma doesn't care about the goods that his uncle doesn't love, and he also follows Chen Kancai from time to time.

Now, the six of them are riding the east wind of the Hou Mansion, and they can be regarded as rising to the clouds, shining in their respective fields.

When the six of them gathered in the Hou Mansion, the Hou Mansion suddenly became lively.

"Lord Xu is here?"

"It turned out to be General Cheng, it's been a long time."

"General Zhou is here too?"

"Yes, Master Hou has a call, how dare you not come."

"What's going on today, Master Hou has time to invite us to drink?"

A group of people greeted each other politely, they were all the core figures around Chen Kan, and the relationship between them may not be very good, but they are all familiar people.

Yun Cheng greeted him with a smile and arched his hand: "Ladies and gentlemen, please come to the auditorium and sit down for a while, and the Hou Ye will arrive later." ”

After leading a few people to the living room and arranging for the next person to serve tea, Yun Cheng turned around and came to the study.

"Master Hou, several adults have arrived."

Chen Kan nodded, got up and stretched, and asked, "Are all the gifts for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ready?" ”

Yun Cheng bowed and said, "It's all ready, and the prayer post was also sent to the East Palace." ”

"Okay."

Chen Kan nodded again and walked slowly towards the hall with his hands behind his back.

Most of the time, Chen Kan rarely summons his henchmen to his home in private like this, and is more on business, and everything is arranged directly.

It's not that Chen Kan is high-spirited and bright, and he doesn't like to engage in party and private interests, mainly to avoid being tongue-in-cheek.

The officials of the Imperial Historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate are not big, but their mouths are really stinky.

Don't look at Chen Kan's various impeachments and slanders, he has been tough and just gone back for so many years.

But Chen Kan was really a little stunned from the bottom of his heart.

But now it doesn't matter.

Zhu Di kicked him into the mud, if he didn't do something bad, he would be sorry for Zhu Di's hard work.

Listening to the conversation of the six people in the auditorium, Chen Kan stood outside the door and cleared his throat, until the voices in the auditorium fell silent, and then he stepped into the hall.

"Subordinate...... The last general has seen the Hou Ye......"

Seeing Chen Kan coming, a group of people hurriedly got up and saluted Chen Kan.

Chen Kan didn't care about it, walked straight to the main seat and sat down, and said leisurely: "Okay, sit down, there are not so many rules in the Benhou Mansion." ”

"Master Xie."

After the six of them sat down, they quieted down, today Chen Kan called all six of them over, it would definitely not be as simple as just calling them over for a meal, so they all pricked up their ears, ready to listen to Chen Kan's teachings.

Looking at the serious appearance of several people, Chen Kan didn't say much, but stretched out his hand to summon the maid who was waiting in the room, and indifferently ordered: "Let's set up a banquet." ”

"Yes~"

The maid Yingying retreated, and Chen Kan sat on the main seat and started to stay.

Seeing this, the six people below couldn't help but look at each other.

In their impression, Chen Kan has always been a resolute person, and he will never sell anything when he asks them to do anything.

Today, it seems a bit abnormal, huh?

However, if Chen Kan didn't speak, they naturally wouldn't be bored.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and the two rows of maids brought various dishes into the auditorium, and then lined up next to the six people and began to pour wine and cloth dishes for the six people.

Chen Kan came back to his senses, picked up his wine glass and said with a smile: "I called you over today, there is nothing else, I just feel that Ben Hou and you have not seen each other for a long time, and I miss you very much."

You are all the pillars of my Ming Dynasty, and you are busy on weekdays, and you rarely have leisure time to get together to eat, drink, and connect with each other.

Chen is not talented, such a game has been formed today, you can speak freely today, and you can drink freely. ”

As soon as these words came out, the doubts in the eyes of the six people became even worse.

Strange, so weird.

This doesn't look like Hou Ye's style at all, and Hou Ye is not a person who likes to banquet friends on weekdays?

But after a moment of doubt, several people did not say anything unpleasant.

Xu Yuan even got up, smiled at Chen Kan with a wine glass: "Hehe, Xia Guan and others are busy with official business on weekdays, and they can't spare time to visit Hou Ye. ”

"That's how it should be, it's as it should be, hehehe."

Chen Kan drank it all with a glass of wine very heroically, and Xu Yuan also drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Signaling each other's wine glasses, the two immediately looked at each other and smiled.

After laughing for a while, Xu Yuan sat back at the back of the desk, and a shrewd look flashed in his eyes from time to time.

Shi Wen, who was sitting on the side, asked in a low voice, "Lord Xu, what do you mean by this?" ”

Xu Yuan replied in an expressionless whisper: "You don't care what you mean, whatever the Hou Ye says, you can do it, take out your amount of wine, and make the banquet as lively as possible." ”

Obviously, Xu Yuan had already understood Chen Kan's intentions, so he said this.

At the same time, Xu Yuan had just finished toasting Chen Kan with a glass of wine, and Fang Xu stood up and laughed heroically: "Master Hou, the last general can have today, and the grace of Hou Ye is indispensable. ”

Chen Kan smiled slightly and said: "This is a bad word, you and I are both doing things for Daming, where is there any kindness, but this wine is to be drunk, General Fang, please!" ”

"The last general is done, Master Hou, you are free."

Fang Xu's words were very explicit, and it sounded like a simple expression of loyalty, but except for Xu Yuan, the other four were all thoughtful.

Xu Yuan spoke again and whispered: "Master Shi, do you understand, General Fang is the real smart person." ”

Shi Wen nodded, a wise and stupid glint flashing in his eyes.

Then he suddenly got up and snorted, and crawled to the center of the main hall.

"Master Hou, Master Hou, I will receive your great favor in the end, although I can't repay you even if I die."

Shi Wen's sudden voice made everyone, including Chen Kan, stunned for a moment, and Xu Yuan rolled his eyes helplessly, and couldn't help but turn his head sideways to support his forehead.

Fang Xu, Cheng Feng and Zhou Shi widened their eyes even more, with a ghostly expression, and Chen An, who was born as a civil official and paid more attention to manners, could barely collapse.

Shi Wen was still pompously expressing his sincerity in front of Chen Kan, and in the next second, Fang Xu nodded at Cheng Feng.

Cheng Feng, who got the signal, instantly stood up and snorted, threw himself to Shi Wen's side and began to yell: "Hou Ye, the last general has been stumbling for half his life, until he meets Hou Ye's skills, he can be regarded as having room to display, and the last general is also grateful to Hou Ye from the bottom of his heart, but the last general's mouth is even more stupid, and he won't say anything good......"

Cheng Feng and Shi Wen stood in front of Chen Kan with exaggerated expressions, their voices were louder than the other, and the words they said were more explicit than the other.

Chen Kan smacked his lips, looked at the four people who were smiling below, and couldn't help but sigh.

How can I say it, although he called six people over to the banquet today, it was just to show others, and by the way, he secretly arranged some things to go down.

But the performances of these two people are too exaggerated, I don't have eyes to see.

twitching the corners of his mouth, Chen Kan hurriedly reached out and clenched his fist.

"Close!"

"It's okay, it's rude to play it again."

Shi Wen and Cheng Feng's expressions froze, and they stopped their mouths with some unfinished words.

"Papa~"

Seeing the two of them retreat to their seats, Chen Kan slapped twice in the air, and in an instant, a row of young girls rushed in.

The sound of silk and bamboo sounded behind the screen, and a group of women began to sing and dance in the main hall.

"Eat the vegetables and eat the vegetables."

After three rounds of drinking, Chen Kan enjoyed the singing and dancing while beckoning a few people to eat.

A feast is not completely over until midnight.

And the six people who were summoned by Chen Kan naturally came and returned with interest.

That night, Chen Kan hosted a banquet at home, and the gossip that his subordinates swore that they were only willing to be loyal to Chen Kan in this life while they were drinking.

And Chen Kan, not surprisingly, was impeached by the imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate in the early court of the next day.

The crime is very simple, only eight words, pampered and arrogant, forming a party for personal gain.

It's just that Zhu Di chose to stay in the middle of the excerpts of the imperial historians' impeachment of Chen Kan.

The officials couldn't figure out Zhu Di's attitude, and the impeachment of Chen Kan was a bit thunderous and rainy.

Of course, Chen Kan didn't go to the court, and these news were all sent back by Fang Xiaoru.

Hearing the news, Chen Kan didn't say anything, just laughed it off.

Because he has more important things to do today, he is going to the East Palace to visit His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he will go as Zhan Shi of Zhan Shifu.

At noon, Yun Cheng rushed the prepared gifts to the door of the Hou Mansion, Chang Ning sent Chen Kan to the carriage, and explained worriedly: "Husband, this time you are going to visit His Royal Highness the Prince, it is better not to cause trouble." ”

"Don't worry, if others don't mess with me, I definitely won't cause trouble."

Chen Kan nodded in response, and then took the new head of the guard, Wang Can, out of the mansion in a carriage and headed towards the palace along the Qinhuai River.

Chen Kan's new personal guard is a young man in his early twenties, not much older than Chen Kan.

But although Wang Can is young, he has a rich resume, not only following Chen Kan across the grassland, but also following Chen Kan to fight in the South Seas.

Choosing a young man to be the leader of the guard, Chen Kan naturally had his own considerations.

To put it bluntly, most of his henchmen in Daming started with his personal guards at the earliest, and then slowly climbed up.

Most of the people released in front of Chen Kan were in their thirties and forties.

Before Chen Kan's foundation was established, it was necessary to use some old and serious people, but now that Chen Kan has become a big trend, these old and serious people have shown an obvious lack of stamina, so it is necessary to cultivate the backbone of the younger generation.

Promoting Wang Can to be a personal guard can be regarded as a small attempt by Chen Kan, as long as Wang Can can grow up smoothly, Chen Kan will have many more choices for the future layout.
