Shi Lang raised his hands and said with an arrogant look, all the generals present here, whether they are Zhang Jin, the old generals on Ke Chenshu's side, or the new ones such as Huang Ting, Hong Xishan, etc., all have changed expressions. Chen Bin, who has no understanding of his temperament

There was even more disdain on his face, and even Shi Xian gently pulled his brother.

"You traitor, I haven't given you any trouble yet, so stop getting involved with me first."

Thinking of this in his heart, Chen Kai didn't show it on his face. Instead, he held up his hands and smiled and said: "Shi Shuai is joking. He is a scholar, he doesn't know any martial arts, and he is both wise and brave. It's nothing more than rumors among ignorant people."

That’s all, I really can’t do anything, I can’t count.”

Chen Kai responded with humility, and Huang Ting and Shi Xian also laughed quickly, ignoring the embarrassment. However, this scene was all in Zheng Chenggong's eyes, but he did not make even the slightest move.

, just sitting there, carefully observing the expressions and reactions of everyone present, not knowing what was going on in his mind.

After such an episode, the atmosphere of the entire banquet became a little weird. Shi Lang was domineering, and Chen Kai was hiding something. Since then, the two have not had any communication, but Huang Ting, Hong Xishan and even Shi Xian and others have more

There was a toast to Chen Kai with admiration in his words, which was in sharp contrast to Shi Lang.

Late at night, the reception banquet came to an end amid light singing and dancing, and everyone dispersed. Shi Lang and others were left behind by Zheng Chenggong to talk before returning to their residence.

"A mere fifth-grade civil servant, like a dog, dares to ridicule my ignorance in public!"

The soldiers retreated, and before he could touch the hangover soup on the table, Shi Lang slapped his hand on the table, causing half the bowl to fly out. After scolding Chen Kai, Shi Lang pointed at his brother Shi Xian's nose and scolded him angrily.

Said: "Huang Ting, Hong Xishan is just a few of those guys. You're lucky enough to have the heart to toast him. Are you just trying to make me angry, aren't you?!"

Shi Xian has always been afraid of this brother. Not only because of the traditional morality of elder brother being like father, but also because he is talented and ruthless. Even as a younger brother, he is inevitably afraid.

Seeing his brother's anger, Shi Xian didn't dare to say anything wrong with Shi Lang. He simply used the excuse that Chen Kai was very useful around Zheng Chenggong and persuaded Shi Lang to be so cold and cold. But he heard this.

However, the taste in Shi Lang's ears had changed to a different one, and he simply shouted to his brother: "What kind of delusion did that guy pour into you, so that you can argue for him regardless of the feelings of your compatriots!"

"Hey, brother, how can I say something for him?" Shi Xian couldn't help but sigh as he said that, and then said: "What Foolish Brother means is that after all, we are just here for the first time, and it is never a good thing to offend someone for nothing.

.Even if those uncles who have followed the Grand Master see it, they may not turn towards us."

"Do I need those old gangsters?"

Shi Lang snorted coldly, and asked without any scruples: "Not to mention father and Uncle Wu Yi, even our brothers also followed the Grand Master back then. How long has that guy been here? He just arrived last year.

Is Nan'ao Island the national surname? What do you think if you take down Chaozhou City? If it were you and me, a hundred people could take over Chaozhou City. How could you be like that, overestimating your ability to assassinate Che?

joke."

Speaking of which, Shi Xian knew that with his brother's temperament, it would be useless to talk any more. It's just that his brother was a little too flamboyant. This was the first time they met, and in front of Zheng Chenggong and everyone.

The general's face looked like this. But following Shi Lang's words, Shi Xian was suddenly stunned.

"Don't worry about that guy. He is in charge of a weapons bureau. If he dares to play tricks on me about weapons, even if he is not blind, I will make him look good."

………………

Shi Lang's anger was raging, and Shi Xian was helpless. At the same time, Chen Kai and others, who had left the banquet earlier, were still gathered in the wing where Chen Kai temporarily lived in the main town hall. Du Hui, who was present at the meeting,

Ke Chenshu, Ye Yiyun, Chen Ding and Ke Chenmei, who came after hearing the news, were all in the room.

"I have interacted with this guy Shi Lang before, and he has such a temper. When Huang Shoufu sent troops to Jiangxi, the Grand Master was not optimistic about it, but this guy still went with him. As a result, he was related to Huang Shoufu's troops.

Fighting for a prisoner of a puppet official, they fought fiercely, but were driven back to Fujian by Huang Shoufu."

According to some historical books, this past incident mentioned by Ke Chenshu was caused by Shi Lang's admonition not being recognized by Huang Daozhou, so he fled back to Fujian. However, according to the memorandum written by Huang Daozhou to Emperor Longwu at that time, it is exactly the same.

As Ke Chenshu said, there are two versions of this past incident. The former, as the name suggests, is using the sacrifice of Huang Daozhou to secretly praise Shi Lang's far-sightedness, while the latter depicts a man who changed his family in order to seek fame.

The image of a loser who was expelled because he couldn't control his temper.

Chen Kai recalled something and analyzed Shi Lang's life experience. Both of these theories are possible, especially the latter - Shi Lang was expelled from Huang Daozhou; he had a bad relationship with Li Chengdong when he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty for the first time; he surrendered to Zheng Chenggong.

Under his banner, he was at odds with many of his colleagues; after he was surrendered to the Qing Dynasty for the second time, he was kept in cold storage for many years, and even had to rely on his wife to work as a female hostess to support him; when the Kangxi Dynasty and the Qing court wanted Taiwan, he and his elder brother-in-law Huang Xigun's in-law Yao Qisheng

Cooperation also broke out into conflicts, and in the end, Yao Qisheng took all the credit for himself, and achieved his title of Marquis and the Shihou Dazhu that exploited the people of Taiwan for more than two hundred years.

Chen Kai vaguely remembered that the evaluation of Shi Lang in the history books was that he was "meager, arrogant and arrogant", and now it seems that it is indeed true. Just from this side, Chen Kai can see from his eyes, expressions, words, and actions.

I saw the image of a domineering general with a flamboyant personality, arrogance and no restraint.

Is all this just arrogance based on talent? I'm afraid it's not the case. Because when faced with people who are more talented than him in some aspects, Shi Lang often chooses to use secret calculations to eliminate his partners, so as to make contributions and gain greater

Interests.

"Bah, that guy is nothing. When we were fighting bloody battles with the surname of the country, he was still working as a dog for Li Chengdong and that guy, killing the Wang divisions of Guangdong and Guangxi, Chen Shangshu, Zhang Hanlin, and the rebels organized by Chief Chen.

Special kill, now that I am in a desperate situation, I came to vote, but it turned out to be amazing, huh!"

Du Hui was like this, and Ke Chenmei also had an angry look on his face, but Ke Chenshu, Ye Yiyun, and Chen Ding were all frowning.

Chen Kai is now the most useful civil servant under Zheng Chenggong, he can be called the chief schemer, and he almost obeys his words. Among the civil servants, there are comrade friends like Ye Yiyun and Chen Ding, and the generals also have great trust in him.

With Du Hui and the Ke brothers, who have experienced life and death together, it can be said that Paoze has already established a firm foothold.

However, when Shi Lang first arrived, he had to face difficulties with Chen Kai. Even if the generals knew that he had such a personality, they were dissatisfied. Even Huang Ting, Hong Xishan, Shi Xian and others felt that Shi Lang was too incapable of speaking.

, there is absolutely no need to offend Chen Kai, Zheng Chenggong’s most useful civil servant. But in the eyes of Ye Yiyun, Chen Ding and others, this guy is clearly a thorn in the side, and sooner or later he will cause some trouble. Now,

Such a good situation is actually a potential threat.

"The biggest problem is that he brought an army of more than four thousand this time, which should not be underestimated."

These five people were Chen Kai's close friends in Zheng Chenggong's army, and most of them had close friendships. As soon as Shi Lang arrived, he pointed the finger at Chen Kai, hoping to scare the monkeys and establish him as the second person under Zheng Chenggong's command.

His status, or anything else, actually doesn't matter anymore. Since this person has already separated from Chen Kai, looking at his strong strength, he can't help but worry about Chen Kai.

However, compared to them, Chen Kai seemed much more confident, especially when he mentioned the army that would directly account for one-third of Zheng Chenggong's troops once it arrived, this confidence arose even more spontaneously.
