Chapter 128 Table Battlefield
Chapter 128: Dining table battlefield
If you want to talk about the busiest people in the Aojia Empire, there is no doubt that he was the Secretary of State. As soon as he left the Lu family, he hurried to the imperial capital and attended the state banquet half an hour later. At the banquet, the old man was overjoyed and talked about the blessings of his descendants with foreign envoys, which made the other party and the media dumbfounded. The media in the imperial capital introduced the banquet in detail with the radiant and radiant title of the Secretary of State, which caused a great sensation in the empire.
On the way to the Black Dragon Legion, Chen Fang received information from the Intelligence Department. The assassin came from a mysterious killer organization, which was huge and efficient. In the past two years, he assassinated the politicians of the Aojia Empire many times and became famous. Judging from the detailed information, the Intelligence Bureau has been targeting them for more than ten days and half a month, and has given the code name for the assassination organization, the Secret Group.
The Intelligence Agency has analyzed the prey of the Dark Group. Their killing targets have no clear direction and are simply employed to kill people.
"So, no matter who pays the money, they can be hired." Chen Fang thought.
"That's true, and in addition, they are not picky about prey." Bruce replied cautiously on the other hand, and then regretted his words. Of course, the dark group was not picky about prey. If they restrained a little, they should not touch Mr. Chen San.
"Do you have a way to contact the dark group? I mean hire them." Chen Fang didn't care and continued to ask.
"Of course, they are an assassination organization after all, and only employers can make money. If even the Intelligence Bureau can't find them, who can find them?" In front of the communicator, Bruce burst into laughter. Although Mr. Chen is a character, he has little experience after all, he lacks understanding of the Intelligence Bureau's strength and does not know the abilities of his subordinates.
"Contact the secret team and entrust them a task." Chen Fang thought about it.
"Where is the prey?" Bruce was not surprised by Mr. Chen's order.
"Sonny." Chen Fang thought for a moment, and it was hard to think of an acquaintance.
"Hauck's nephew?" Bruce was slightly surprised.
"I don't know any other Sonny except him." Chen Fang couldn't help but laugh.
"I understand, do you have any other instructions?" The communicator was silent for a short time.
"To accomplish this, you can resign." Chen Fang thought about it for a while and said cautiously.
"This is not because his subordinates are nostalgic for power. He really dares not bear the trust of the head of the family. Should we prophesied the head of the family?" The head of the family was of course talking about Chen Bowei. Bruce couldn't wait to show his loyalty and hesitated. He, the intelligence director, said bluntly, was just a pawn of the Chen family. The Chen family handed the position to him. How dare he make a decision on this big thing?
"You can think about it yourself."
After Chen Fang finished the communication, he immediately contacted his grandfather.
"Borrow someone? Who are you going to borrow?" Grandpa asked in confusion.
"The sixth-level mercenary who protected us last time." Chen Fangshi said loudly. Not everyone can invite sixth-level mercenary, let alone he can't afford a commission.
"Someone wants to attack you? Aren't you with your father-in-law? Who can touch you in the Black Dragon Legion? What are you doing with mercenaries?" Grandpa immediately became nervous.
"I heard the news that the people from the secret group were going to assassinate Hawke's nephew, and I wanted to find someone to protect him." Chen Fang tried to take advantage of the troubled waters.
"The Secret Group, is the group of assassins who assassins last time? Didn't I tell you that it's an extraordinary time now, don't act rashly, and a small impatience will cause trouble." My grandfather immediately realized that this matter was not as simple as the grandson said.
"I have a sense of responsibility." Chen Fang insisted stubbornly.
"Since you have a sense of responsibility, I won't say anything, I'll send them there." Grandpa angrily closed the communication. What does it mean to hear the news? Most of the killers were hired by grandsons.
With the wisdom of the Secretary of State, this information was enough to make him guess a rough outline of his grandson's plan. He accepted that it felt that the plan was quite good.
After the secret operation was over, Chen Fang sighed. Youdao was guilty of being a thief, and this was true. Since he was on the road, his father-in-law kept his baby son-in-law by his side. It was not easy to do some secret things. This communication was all about taking advantage of the opportunity to go to the toilet.
When Chen Fang opened the door, he immediately saw Lu Lingfeng waiting outside.
"My brother-in-law can't have kidney deficiency?" Lu Lingfeng asked knowingly, with a funny smile on his handsome face.
Although Chen Fang had never tried it one by one, he knew that there was more than one bathroom on his father-in-law's luxurious ship, and of course there was no need to queue up.
"Just just jokes, I'll inform you to have a meal." Lu Lingfeng laughed. Although he had two sisters, he had no brothers, and he was quite lonely. When he met this brother-in-law who was more handsome and cooler than him, he was naturally full of interest. He took the initiative to chat with him in his spare time, but even told him about the small matter of notifying him to start a meal.
Although Chen Fang could see that he was not hostile, his enthusiasm was unbearable.
The rich but full of dishes made Chen Fang frown.
Eating hoses alone was enough to satisfy your hunger, but Chen Fang was unwilling to show his physical condition, especially the people from the Lu family, so he had to hide it. In order to make his father-in-law believe that he was very satisfied with the food on the ship, Chen Fang forced himself to eat every meal, and eat more than his brother-in-law.
What is there? Lu Beiyan seems to like to compare his son and son-in-law very much. Of course, it is mainly about diet. If Chen Fang eats less than his brother-in-law, he thinks that Chen Fang is not satisfied with the dishes, and even scolds the chef for this.
However, although this brother-in-law, who is currently the rank of lieutenant of the Black Dragon Legion, looks handsome and has a gentle conversation, he has an extremely amazing appetite, so every meal is a painful experience.
What’s abominable is that my brother-in-law seems to be happy to appreciate his painful expression. In contrast, every time he eats, it is interesting to Lu Lingfeng.
If Chen Fang knew the real reason why his brother-in-law was eating Haisai, he might faint on the spot.
"Brother-in-law, I heard that you had a serious illness. If you have just recovered from the serious illness, you must eat more." A leg of an unknown animal was put into Chen Fang's plate, and a nausea sensation came.
"Uh, you can eat more, too." Chen Fang was not willing to be outdone, and his other leg fell into his brother-in-law's plate.
The two of them started to stare at each other with big eyes.
Lu Beiyan's chorus couldn't tell the weirdness of the meal these two days, but this weirdness was harmless. Is it a young man? Eating more is a good thing, so I won't intervene. Instead, the rumored serious illness aroused his interest. After all, the subsequent rumors made him and the entire Lu family feel anxious.
"Son-in-law, I heard that you went to hunt outside the country at the age of twelve, and saved your grandfather under the claws of the Iron-Red Bear. He was also infected with the virus and was seriously ill and almost lost his life. I wonder if the rumors are true?"
"It's not a question of saving my grandfather. If I don't kill the Iron-Red Bear, I will be swallowed sooner or later." Chen Fang tried hard to pretend not to care, and his expression still twitched in pain. Perhaps saving my grandfather is not worth showing off, and it's nothing to blind the Iron-Red Bear, but the price I paid for is still fresh in memory.
Although Lu Beiyan did not doubt the rumors, now that he has been confirmed, he still feels frightened. Can a twelve-year-old child have this courage? If it were another child, he would have been scared to death. No wonder his family was proud of that experience and showed off his grandson's courage to meet everyone. For the Secretary of State who is keen on hunting and adventure, there is probably nothing more exciting than this. This is called successor.
"What's the matter? What did you think at that time?" Lu Lingfeng looked at his brother-in-law in disbelief, as if he was examining a monster that was even more fierce than the Iron-Red Bear.
"I didn't think of anything." Chen Fang acted at the opportunity. Since his brother-in-law stopped, he also put down the tableware.
Lu Beiyan was secretly amused in his heart, and at the same time he believed in his son-in-law's words. If he hadn't experienced the same risks personally, it would be difficult to understand how people felt at that time based on imagination. To say that twelve-year-old children could think of something when they pounced on the Iron-Red Bear, that would be pure nonsense.
"Then you carried my grandfather back to the camp. You probably couldn't do it with your physical condition at that time." Lu Lingfeng found the suspicious point.
"I dragged it back, my arm was broken at that time." Chen Fang replied without hesitation. The conversation finally appeared beyond the legend, saying that it was carried back, probably because he was unwilling to destroy the glorious image of the Secretary of State.
"Oh, it is said that you were seriously injured at the beginning, and there were still marks of the iron-ridge bear's claws on your right arm." Lu Beiyan glared at his son fiercely.
"It's the left arm." Chen Fang corrected that if the right arm was broken at the beginning, he and his grandfather would undoubtedly die, and the iron-ridged bear would become the most powerful bear in history.
It is not difficult to remove scars on the surface of the body, but that scar was preserved as a proof of Chen Fang's courage, and under the repeated display of his grandfather, it became the secret of the empire.
At the strong request of his father-in-law and brother-in-law, Chen Fang took off his shirt and the three hideous scars had not faded after eight years. They were incompatible with his slender physique, but brought a strong visual impact, giving people a shocking feeling.
"I guess he must have been seriously injured at the beginning." Lu Beiyan's eyes admired the scars as if he was admiring a new good gun. The scar is the glory of a soldier. This scar left by the Secretary of State, even if it appears on any special forces in the empire, it is enough to show off his life, not to mention that his son-in-law was only twelve years old.
"It was broken at that time, and later my grandfather sent someone to find it and re-receive it." Chen Fang hurriedly put on his clothes. As a man, his fragile body really had nothing to show in front of his father-in-law and brother-in-law who were a soldier, and he even felt a little inferior.
Although it cannot be confirmed so far, many people believe that it is this scar that infected Mr. Chen San with a mysterious virus.
"Lingfeng, have you heard that? Chen Fang is so brave. You can protect his grandfather at the age of twelve. You are too cowardly." Lu Beiyan seized the opportunity to teach his son a lesson, thinking of him, Mr. Lu, one of the five marshals in the Aojia Empire, who commanded the undefeated Black Dragon Legion. How powerful is it? His son is very honest. He was bullied by other children since he was a child and often went home with tears in his eyes. At this time, Lu Beiyan was full of anger and wanted to beat his poor son again. In fact, he did. Then, he often took out Chen Fang's "heroic deeds" to motivate his son. Therefore, although Lu Lingfeng had never seen his brother-in-law, he was familiar with his brother-in-law and was full of curiosity.
Although my son is old now, he can't see any cowardice. It's no different from other children, but he is still not satisfied. His expectations for his son are not just not cowardly, or just be brave. He must be strong and have the wolf nature of a soldier, otherwise how can the son inherit his father's business?
"Look at Chen Fang, one of them can beat more than ten, and even beat the head of the son of the Att Councillor. Like you, you can't even protect yourself, so why should you protect your family? Men must learn to protect their family and make others cry home." The father's old story re-introduced, causing Lu Lingfeng to fall into the shadow of his childhood. Not only was he bullied by other children, but his father's disappointed eyes. For him, the greatest sense of accomplishment came from his father's praise.
"Well, when you were nine years old, you really beat the son of Aate Councilor Yat, and you still beat more than ten of them at one time!" Lu Lingfeng obviously had not yet escaped the shadow of his childhood and was also suspicious of his father's motivation.
"There is absolutely nothing." Chen Fang didn't know this and immediately denied that the nobles were elegant and polite, so how could they do rough behavior? Unless it was a duel.
"Really?" Lu Beiyan widened his eyes. Although everything after his son-in-law's age was empty, he knew the feat before that.
"He just scratched his skin." Under the sharp gaze of his father-in-law, Chen Fang weakly admitted that it was not a glorious thing. Injuring people and hurting bears are different after all.
"They have more than ten people, can you fight more than ten by yourself?" Lu Lingfeng still didn't want to believe it.
"The rest of the people ran away." Chen Fang said calmly.
"Running? Why?" Lu Lingfeng couldn't understand.
"It would be strange if you don't run away! That poor child was almost beaten to death. How can a fellow party member not run away? Fighting will make people afraid of you. Grab one and beat him to death until he is afraid." Lu Beiyan hurriedly caught the topic.
"What if he is still not afraid?" Lu Lingfeng asked timidly.
"If you ask this, you mean you are scared!" Lu Beiyan sighed annoyedly, and turned to Chen Fang and said, "You tell him what should I do?"
"Then beat him to death." Despite all his unwillingness, Chen Fang still expressed the answer.
"I heard that, as a soldier, it is not enough to have courage alone. You have to have the desire to conquer. The weak have only two choices, either surrender or be killed." The son-in-law who came to the door was not an outsider. Lu Beiyan taught his son a lesson without hesitation, not to mention that he originally wanted to use Chen Fang to inspire his son's fighting spirit. A wolf cub dared not eat chicken, two wolf cubs rush to eat, and a group of wolf cubs dared to eat anything. This is the philosophy he has learned for many years, and it can be confirmed from the performance of his son and son-in-law when eating.
This kind of lesson happens from time to time in the Lu family. As usual, Lu Lingxue listened quietly. From those words, she could hear her father's high hopes for her brother, but she did not admit that Chen Fang's fight was called bravery. Except for the time he saved the Secretary of State, the rest of the time he was obviously causing trouble. However, her father was very fond of this courage, so she had to remain silent.
Before she could see, Lu Lingxue thought of the conversation between the two in the garden. At that time, she joked that Chen Jianzhang must have caused trouble at home and was repaired by her parents. Unexpectedly, she hit it out to her.
Lu Lingfeng stopped talking and started eating voraciously. He naturally could see that his father appreciated his brother-in-law very much, so he made up his mind to compete with Chen Fang in all aspects. Eating was one of the aspects. As his father said, men's wars may not necessarily occur on the battlefield, but can happen at any time, anywhere, and of course, the dining table.
Unfortunately, Chen Fang didn't know what he wanted to beat him, and when he saw his brother-in-law's eating behavior, he almost cried.
After eating for three hours, I added the dishes twice in the middle. I felt obvious discomfort from the stomach and intestines. The numbers displayed on the data terminal on the arm also clearly revealed a message that I could not eat any more.
After dinner, Lu Beiyan probably called his son into the room alone for the sake of struck while the iron was hot.
"Is your brother a bargain?" Chen Fang leaned on the chair in pain, and burped a few times before he could soothe the swelling feeling slightly.
"You are the one who is a living." Even though Lu Lingxue was well-educated, she was still confronting her tit-for-tat and defending her brother's dignity.
"I'm not trying to insult him, I mean, he can really eat it. This is a fact after all. As a student of the Imperial Academy, we must respect the facts." Chen Fang became darker and darker as he described it.
"Brother doesn't eat so much. After you appear, his appetite seems to have increased." Lu Lingxue said calmly.
"What? Do I have a grudge against him?" Chen Fang struggled to sit up from the chair.
"You are the ones who can eat. You seem to like eating very much. I guess he wants to eat a little more than you." Lu Lingxue vaguely guessed his brother's thoughts.
"Who said I can eat? I don't like eating, especially when I'm not hungry, I want to eat a little more than him." Chen Fang said viciously.
"I have never seen a boring person like you. What's wrong with you? Who eats more?" Lu Lingxue was ridiculous and could barely understand that his brother would do this. He didn't want to lose to his brother-in-law in front of his father, and Chen Fang was desperate to eat, and he couldn't find any other explanation except boredom.
"Your brother is bored. Do you think I want to eat? Your father always compares me with your brother. He eats less than him and says that the food is not my taste and wants to send the chef to the front line as cannon fodder. Even if I don't care about the chef, I don't want to make your father angry." Chen Fang protested strongly.
As a bystander, Lu Lingxue can tell by thinking about it carefully that neither his brother nor Chen Fang is boring. It is very likely that his father did it intentionally. From this point of view, Chen Fang is the innocent victim.
