The ordinary two characters "Chen Chao" on the name card look ordinary, but I can't stand the fact that there are five characters "Daliang Guardsman" in front of it.
These seven characters represent the number one military attache in the Liang Dynasty today, with overwhelming power.
This is something that a little steward can't afford to offend.
The man who sent the name card glanced at the steward, and he could tell that the man was frightened at this moment, but he didn't intend to say anything. Of course, he knew that his Lord Guard would not have any thoughts about such a little steward. This is true even after knowing what he did today.
However, this kind of guy who looks down on others deserves to suffer.
Almost as soon as the man turned around, the steward hurriedly sent the name card in his hand to the Shen family's inner house and to the desk of a certain important person.
At the same time, the entire Shen family and many powerful figures rushed here.
Most of them have white hair, and there are also many middle-aged people.
Shen Changping walked at the end, walking slowly but with a sad look on his face.
The visitor had already roughly told what the incident was when he informed him. He was surprised that the young guardian envoy suddenly returned to the divine capital and paid a sudden visit, but after the accident, he became deeply worried.
Earlier today, the ancestors had said categorically that even if the young guardian knew the truth, nothing would happen. However, it didn't take long for the young guardian's post to arrive.
Sure enough, it was just as the rumors said. This young martial artist who dared to kill the Qigong practitioners from outside the country in his early years could not tolerate any sand in his eyes.
These days, there are occasional rumors in the city of God that the young guardian is actually the real murderer of the second prince. Shen Pingfan thought it was impossible at first, but now
After a while, I started to believe it vaguely.
But if this is the case, one of him, Shen Pingfan, would have to admire the courage of this young warrior, and the other would have to admire His Majesty the Emperor's tolerance.
Such a perfect match for a pair of ministers, uncle and nephew, no wonder His Majesty the Emperor wanted to hand over the kingdom to him before leaving.
With such a new king, will Daliang reach a higher level?
Shen Changping took a deep breath, told himself not to think about these things, and walked into the room in front of him.
The room had already been in chaos.
"Chen Chao will come tomorrow, I'm afraid it will be fierce. I told you not to mess with this person before. This person can even kill his own brother at will. How can he be easy to mess with?"
"Yes, this person's current status means that he cannot be easily provoked. Even if His Highness is forced to do something, he may not be willing to submit. Besides, this person has deep roots among the people..."
"Hmph, it's ridiculous. We didn't usurp the throne, and we didn't collude with Fang Wai to imitate the Wei family. Even if he comes, what can he do? Can he do the same to the Wei family and exterminate the Shen family?"
"Yes, let alone a guardian envoy, even if he is really the new king, does he still want the world to follow his will? His Majesty was quite afraid back then, let alone him?"
"In my opinion, if he says he wants to visit tomorrow, we should not even open the middle door for him, so that he knows that even though his surname is Chen, he is nothing special!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an immediate response from below.
Many people have long been dissatisfied with many of the current imperial court's systems. Every year, taxes are paid to the north. Many of their businesses related to the government have to do a lot less every year.
Since you do less work, there will be countless days when you can’t earn money.
His Majesty the Emperor was here before, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't change it. They went to block people in front of the palace gate, and His Majesty the Emperor could just watch you run over and die over there. As for treason?
The powerful Wei family just became a ghost and really became a ghost.
If you want to rebel, you are afraid that if you grow ten heads, you will have to be chopped off by His Majesty the Emperor one by one.
But now that His Majesty is not here, there is a not-so-tough Crown Prince, and a young Guardian who is not yet full-fledged. If the situation cannot be changed, it means that these old guys have been working in vain for so many years.
"Ancestor, let's show our attitude and let him retreat. Anyway, there are still many people standing behind us. He is a guardian envoy and has already achieved great success. I still don't believe that he can do anything else.
No scruples!”
"Ancestor, we cannot retreat now. If we retreat, the people behind us will also retreat. The situation we have created will be meaningless by now!"
There were constant sounds in the room, but the old man sitting in the main seat never spoke. The leader of the Shen family was extremely silent at the moment, just looking at the other people in the room quietly.
"Ancestor..."
Some people wanted to speak, but as soon as they did, the old man asked softly: "Fengfan, what do you think?"
When the old man's old voice sounded, many people naturally turned their heads to look at Shen Changping who was near the door.
Almost everyone in the Shen family knew that the ancestors valued this junior warrior very highly.
Therefore, they would not be too surprised when the old man asked.
It's expected
things.
Shen Changfan glanced at the many elders present, then at the old man, thought for a moment, and said: "The matter has come to this point, and there seems to be no other way. But it is better not to be too decisive. After all, this Lord Guardian is really
I'm young, if I can't help it for a moment, I'm afraid it will cause an ugly scene."
The old man smiled and said: "Actually, I'm not afraid that he will make trouble. I'm just afraid that he will be like an old fox and come in and politely ask me for a cup of tea."
Being young and growing old seems to be something that no one has ever mentioned before.
The young guardian always gives people the impression that he is a young man who is passionate and impulsive.
Shen Changfan retreated silently and stopped speaking. Originally, the ancestor might ask her for her opinion on these matters, but when it came down to it, the ancestor would never listen to other people's ideas.
In this Shen family, major matters have always been decided by this ancestor.
The old man thought for a while, stretched out his hand to extinguish a lit candle on the table, thought for a moment, and said: "Well, let's give him a try and see if he is a dragon on the bottom of the sea or a loach in the mud."
As soon as the old man opened his mouth, there was naturally a burst of cheers, while on the other side, some people sighed silently.
A family cannot really have only one voice from top to bottom, just like today's Daliang.
But as long as those with different voices cannot dominate or decide anything, it's actually fine, just like Mr. Shen today.
If you are just a little afraid, if you are afraid that the decision-maker will make a mistake, and you cannot listen to the advice of others, then you will really be in doom.
…
…
In the early morning, Chen Chao left from the Bamboo Tower. Throughout yesterday, Xie Nandu did not show up, and Chen Chao was not idle either. Although he was at the Bamboo Tower,
In the building, there are many things arranged.
As for the new disciple, he was temporarily handed over to He Liang. Yu Qingfeng quickly made a small bamboo knife for his junior sister. The latter did not dislike it and was very happy.
In just one day, the little girl and her two senior brothers have become very close.
And Chen Chao could also see that at this moment, Yu Qingfeng and He Liang were very fond of their little junior sister. As for why they said it was now, it was because of what would happen in the future, no one could say for sure.
Chen Chao still hoped that his three disciples would not turn against each other in the future.
However, in life, many things are actually impossible to predict.
I got on the carriage arranged by Youwei. This time the driver was still Weng Quan, but the carriage was indeed not the same dung cart as before.
Normally, Chen Chao wouldn't care, but today, it was different.
Also following behind the carriage were a group of Yamen servants from the Youwei Yamen.
A group of people were welcomed to discuss.
They were very curious about who the big shot was in this carriage.
Some people soon recognized that these government officials were serving as the left and right guards, but most people just regarded the people in the carriage as the senior officials of the left and right guards.
However, Chen Chao knew very well that these people would not know the truth soon, but the informants of the major families in the city would definitely know, and they would know it very quickly.
I'm just afraid that by the time I get to Shen's door, the news will almost spread everywhere.
This visit to the Shen family was different from the last time to the Xie family. Chen Chao had no intention of keeping a low profile.
Also, he is the number one military attache in the Liang Dynasty, and he is a person who is not weaker than many aristocratic families. In fact, no matter how low-key he is, he can't be low-key.
Besides, he still has a last name
List.
Yes, everyone in the world is named Chen.
The carriage slowly arrived at Shen's door, and then Weng Quan tightened the reins slightly to stop the carriage, but at the same time there was a cold look in his eyes.
"Sir, the middle door is not open."
The middle door of Shen's family over there was closed tightly, as if they never knew someone was coming.
Maybe he knew it, but he didn't care at all.
Weng Quan didn't look very good. When they set off, they had already sent people to inform them here. It stands to reason that Mrs. Shen should know that Chen Chao is coming here. At this moment, the middle door is not open, so she can only
Explain one thing.
That means Shen did it on purpose.
Weng Quan narrowed his eyes. Even the Xie family now treats Chen Chao, the guardian envoy, with courtesy. The last time I went to the Xie family, they would open the middle door. How can such a Shen family have the courage now?
"Send someone to inform you again."
Chen Chao's voice came out, without any emotion.
Weng Quan suppressed his anger and waved his hand, and soon a Yamen servant came out and went to negotiate over there, but soon he turned back and said softly: "Your Majesty, Mr. Shen said that he has something to do today, so he will not see you.
Well, if you really want to enter, you can only go through the side door."
Weng Quan frowned and said, "What a courageous dog!"
This is a naked contempt for Chen Chao.
How could Weng Quan accept this?
"grown ups……"
Weng Quan opened his mouth slightly, with some expectation in his voice.
Chen Chao opened the curtain, glanced at Shen's door in front, thought about it, and didn't speak in a hurry.
Weng Quan had no choice but to wait patiently, but he was really a little anxious.
Chen Chao was not in a hurry. After sitting in the carriage for almost half a quarter of an hour, he said softly: "In this case, let's dismantle it."
