And Lone and Chen Zui became good friends because of these four sentences of the old man Tianji. ”

The Shadow Guard is loyal to the Heavenly Pole Imperial Family, otherwise he would not let him protect his own safety. Therefore, Tie Wujiang's incomprehensible inquiry about the shadow guard was an unreserved confession. And it was precisely because of his unreserved attitude that Deying Wei was even more surprised for a long time.

First, I can't imagine that the old man of Tianji is willing to calculate the fortune of the country for the emperor. You must know that when the old man of Tianji was young, he leaked too many heavenly machines, which ruined the curse of heaven, causing him to be lonely all his life. So he vowed not to make any more calculations for others.

Second, I can't imagine that the war between Da Zhao and Southern Qi in the past was provoked by Chen Zhongyou, the Duke of Weiguo, which is a military secret. The two countries have offered high bounties that led to the initiation of the war between the two sides, and there has been no result. To solve the crisis of a country, it is no wonder that he is called the pillar of the country, but it is true.

The third is that he didn't expect that the Chen family kid was an important person in rescuing Tianji. The old man of Tianji has no last resort in his life, and the things he explained will definitely come true. It is no wonder that Iron Boundless is willing to stoop to be worthy of his brother.

I just don't know what these four sentences are talking about, but they must be shocking.

The black-clothed shadow guard's mood at the moment was really turbulent, and he slowly calmed down the turbulence in his heart before he asked Tie Wujiang. "And ...... these four sentences?"

Tie Wujiang took a deep look at the shadow guard, and then slowly spoke.

"Loyal people are hard to find, and they are still slanderers.

Bless the country and settle down, can be a thick crown.

All that can be is to defend the front edge.

Only then will there be fruit, and the country will last for 10,000 years. ”

Ying Wei wrote down these four sentences, and thought to himself repeatedly, but he didn't understand the mystery, and he didn't know what this passage had to do with Chen Zui. "What do you mean by that?"

"When my father got this instruction, he also thought about it repeatedly. Literally, the meaning of this passage of the old man Tianji is probably that it is difficult to find people who are loyal to the monarch and patriotic because they are afraid that the king will mistakenly believe the slander of the traitorous ministers, so as the king of a country, we must be more considerate and generous to those who are talented in governing the country and the country......

Ying Wei said, "Your Majesty said that it is just literal, does it mean that there is another layer of meaning in this?"

Yes, in this instruction, there is no mention of Chen Zui, let alone any member of the Chen family. There must be another explanation.

At first, my father thought it was just that, but the more I thought about it, the more wrong it became. The old man's instructions couldn't be so simple, so he racked his mind to understand. I am also glad that my ancestors blessed me, and finally understood before I died, in fact, the meaning of these words is only eight words: 'After loyalty, you can still defend the country'. ”

Speaking of this, Tie Wujiang couldn't help but think of the situation when his father was lying on the dragon bed before his death, holding his bright white little hand, which he must remember.

"The descendants of Chen Guogong are only Chen Lin and Chen Zui, among which Chen Lin, who has been observing for a long time, is not the person who should be ordered, so the rest is this Chen drunk. Now you know why I pay close attention to the news of the Guogong Mansion, and why I treat him so favorably. Besides, Lone is also quite close to him, and he really wants a brother who can tell the truth. ”

After saying this, Tie Wujiang also withdrew the gaze he had been staring at, and smiled helplessly. Then he returned to the temple. This night must be a sleepless night for Tie Wujiang.

......

But he said that Chen was drunk and returned to his room in the house, and he didn't sleep all night. I worked hard to cultivate, and I tried to enter the cave mansion that Tie Wujiang said to find the Soul Rejuvenation Pill. Then he sat cross-legged on the bed and began to absorb the Pangu essence blood in his body. It wasn't until the sky was bright that the sound of his mother Qin Su knocking on the door sounded, and Chen Zui ended his cultivation.

After a hurried wash, the mother and son went to the old man's house to say goodbye. Today, the old man is unwell, and there is no early dynasty. Then, when the three of them were about to go to dinner, Chen Song led a eunuch from the palace to come.

The eunuch saluted Old Man Chen, and a duck-like cry sounded. "When the decree arrived, Chen Guogong and his relatives received it. ”

The three members of the Chen family were about to kneel down to listen, but were stopped by the eunuch. "Your Majesty specially instructed that you don't have to kneel down this time, just stand. ”

Then he opened the decree and read it:

"God bless the heavens, in the name of heaven, the edict said, the beloved grandson who has been away from home for many years has now returned home, and the lonely heart is very comforting. 100 taels of gold, 10 fine pearls, 10 silk satin, 1 100-year-old black cucumber, 100-year-old vermilion fruit...... In order to hope that the public can protect the body. In addition, Chen Zui was given the title of Marquis of Zhen'an, and he was given ten miles of feudal towns and enjoyed the treatment of princes......"

The treatment of the princes of Zhen'an?

The old man and Qin Su's daughter-in-law were dumbfounded when they heard this, but they didn't know that although Chen Zui was only given the title of a marquis, it was also out of respect for the status of the old prince, so they slightly lowered the title. But what he enjoys is the treatment of princes, which is equivalent to a prince with a different surname, which is more respected than the status of the prince.

The eunuch finally finished reading hoarsely, and then bent down in the direction of Chen Zhongyou and the three of them in turn, and said with a sneer, "Old slave congratulations to Lord Guogong, congratulations to Madame, congratulations to Lord Hou." ”

Chen Zhongyou has lived in officialdom for a long time, and he also knows that this compliment is just to ask for some reward, not sincerely. replied politely, "My father-in-law is polite, everything is treated by His Majesty, and the old minister is grateful." I also hope that my father-in-law will return His Majesty's kindness on behalf of the old minister. Then he said to Chen Song, "Ah Song, you lead this father-in-law to the tent to withdraw some silver." ”

Chen Song replied, "Yes, sir." ”

After speaking, Chen Zhongyou turned his head to the eunuch who announced the decree and said politely, "The weather is very cold, and my father-in-law has worked tirelessly, and with a little silver, I asked my father-in-law to buy a pot of hot tea to drink." ”

The eunuch in the palace also bowed his head and thanked, "The old slave thanks the grandfather for the reward." ”

After speaking, he smiled and followed Chen Song to retreat and receive the reward.

After that, the old man and Qin Su both sighed at Tie Wujiang's love for his family, and praised Tie Wujiang for his wisdom.

In the eyes of others, Tie Wujiang's move is to sigh that the country is for the country and the people, and rewards himself by the way. Only Chen Zui knew in his heart that in fact, the emperor's reward must have his own factors in it. Perhaps it could be said that these rewards were just a small greeting gift from Tie Wujiang to his brother.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, as the king of a country, it is understandable to reward his subordinates. But Chen Zui knew that his family had received too much favor from the royal family.

A family can stand for dozens or hundreds of years without falling, and prosper without decaying. In addition to the hard work of future generations, the care of the ruler also accounts for a large part.

It's just a small passing scene like this, and Chen Zui gradually recognized the emperor's eldest brother's care for him in his heart. Chen Zui, who has not felt the care of his family for many years, gradually accepted him in his heart.
