Time flies, and in the midst of a heavy snowfall, the first month of the seventeenth year of Yongzhi officially arrived.

When the New Year was approaching, the news of Han Yu's suicide in fear of crime came out, which made Qianhu Institute experience shock again.

But it was just a shock, because everyone saw the other side of the matter, that is, Shen Yue, the deputy Qianhu who was about to ascend the throne.

Therefore, no one will pay attention to Han Yu's death, let alone how he died.

Shen Yue sent a document to the capital, and made an official explanation of Han Yu's death, and everything was settled.

But for Liu Jianping and Mu Changge, who had experienced the killing of Han Yu, the two of them were under pressure that others couldn't imagine, and they couldn't confide in outsiders.

On the tenth day of the first month of this month, when Chen Xiaoting finally came back from Guangde, Liu Jianping and Mu Changge blocked him at the door.

Looking at the two people who were so cold, Chen Xiaoting stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing here, why don't you go back for the New Year?" ”

Behind Chen Xiaoting was Chen Dayong and his entourage, who followed him to Luyang, and they would stay here for ten days and half a month.

The Chen family came, including Chen Xiaoting's little wife Zheng Xuan'er, and only Chen Xiaolin did not come over.

There are two reasons why he didn't come, one is because his family and tea house need to be taken care of, and the other is that Chen Xiaoting wants to watch his favorite person in Guangde.

After meeting Chen Dayong, Liu Jianping and the others hurriedly greeted him and said that his uncle had a good New Year.

After letting Chen Dayong and his entourage enter the courtyard, Chen Xiaoting took him forward and came to the main hall of the courtyard.

As soon as he sat down, Chen Xiaoting reprimanded: "Looking at the two of you like this, you won't know and think you're a thief!" ”

At this time, Liu Jianping smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, aren't we just like thieves now, panicking all day long!" ”

Knowing what they were worried about, Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but reprimand: "Didn't I tell you, let you relax!" ”

But after all, it was a deputy thousand households that were killed, this is a secret that needs to be kept forever, and Liu Jianping is unable to sleep and eat every time he thinks of this problem.

At this time, Mu Changge said: "My lord, but we have offended Liu Qianhu!"

Although Liu Changming quickly retreated, he was a dignified guard after all, and he was by no means something that ordinary school captains could despise.

At this time, Chen Xiaoting said: "Liu Qianhu? He won't be after the New Year, you might as well say what his son will do to you! ”

Han Yu's death was suppressed, Liu Changming must have made a big move, and there must have been some kind of deal between him and Shen Yue.

Then it is very likely that Liu Siqin is making up for the shortage of 100 households, so Chen Xiaoting said that he should worry about Liu Siqin.

But in fact, it is completely unnecessary, because Liu Siqin cannot pursue this matter, and he is not qualified enough.

This is Chen Xiaoting said: "Wait a little longer, maybe in the next two days, there will be news from the capital!"

"You help Lord Shen do things, the benefits are naturally indispensable to you, don't be too afraid, this matter is not a big deal, it has passed!"

Speaking of this, Chen Xiaoting also smiled and said: "Others don't have a chance to do things for Lord Shen, this matter falls on your head, it's your luck!"

Is it luck? Liu Jianping and the others didn't think so, it was bad luck.

In fact, Liu Jianping and the others have heard Chen Xiaoting say these words many times, but the worries in their hearts cannot be reduced by casual persuasion.

"How is the New Year these days? Have all your relatives walked by? Chen Xiaoting asked, just to change the subject.

Of course, they didn't have a good time this year, they weren't in the mood to do anything, and they couldn't even drink alcohol.

But at this time, Liu Jianping said: "My lord, it doesn't matter how we celebrate the New Year, but you shouldn't go to Guangde ......"

Chen Xiaoting picked up the tea, put aside the tea leaves on it, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Liu Jianping said: "Your Excellency, you don't know, these days, the officials of the Thousand Households have run to Lord Shen's mansion if they have nothing to do, they are stammering!"

"My lord, you are not in Luyang, didn't you cheapen these guys for nothing!"

Liu Jianping is just worried about himself, but he is still worried about himself, Chen Xiaoting really doesn't know what to say.

The relationship between him and Shen Yue is extraordinary, and there is no need to do this kind of superficial flattering work, and the so-called henchmen are not comparable to others.

Chen Xiaoting couldn't help laughing and said, "You just think too much!"

At this time, Chen Dayong and the others had already arranged the salute, and they saw him walk into the main hall and say, "It's time for dinner, what are you going to eat?"

Chen Xiaoting replied casually: "Don't be busy, these two people didn't bring gifts to the house today, so let them treat them to dinner!"

Not to mention, this reason is very reasonable, it is really inappropriate to visit the boss without gifts during the New Year.

"My lord, we're all like this......"

Before the pastor finished speaking, Chen Xiaoting interrupted: "Guangde Chen family, you don't have a lot of fish, now it's so hard to have a meal?" It seems that there will be no good things to bring you in the future! ”

To put it bluntly, since Chen Xiaoting took office as a small flag officer, his life as a lieutenant has been nourished a lot, among which Liu Jianping and Mu Changge have changed their way of life.

Therefore, if Chen Xiaoting really doesn't take them to play, then they will be beaten back to the prototype, or it won't be long before they have to live the original hard life.

"My lord, we can't treat you yet!" Liu Jianping said helplessly.

But now it's the Chinese New Year, and it's not appropriate to eat outside, so Chen Xiaoting asked the two of them to go to the restaurant and book a table of wine to send over.

At this time, a table of banquets must cost a lot, and this is also the first time that Chen Xiaoting has taken the initiative to slaughter his subordinates.

Looking at the back of Liu Jianping and the two leaving, Chen Dayong said: "Xiaoting, people are guests here, it's not good to do this?"

"Dad, what you said is wrong, they should be grateful to me, I have arranged for them to be promoted and rich, and it is not a loss for the two of them to invite a drink!" Chen Xiaoting said leisurely.

It's easy to understand if you're rich, what do you do to get promoted? This is no joke.

But Chen Dayong didn't understand the affairs of the Thousand Households, so he couldn't say anything, so he could only let it go.

It was at this time that another uninvited guest came to Chen's house, Chen Xiaoting's current boss Zhang Zhenshan.

As soon as he saw Zhang Zhenshan, Chen Dayong, as an old subordinate, hurriedly greeted him, bowed down and saluted him: "I've seen Lord Zongqi!"

Zhang Zhenshan nodded, and after signaling that he didn't have to be polite, he said to Chen Xiaoting: "I thought you hadn't come back yet, but I thought I couldn't come to inform you, so I finally came over to try my luck!"

Although he didn't know what Zhang Zhenshan was looking for him, Chen Xiaoting still smiled: "The luck of adults has always been very good, and the new year will definitely go all the way!"

Speaking of the word Gao Sheng, Zhang Zhenshan's face also smiled, and he only heard him say: "Borrow your auspicious words!"

"What are you looking for me?" Chen Xiaoting asked.

Zhang Zhenshan replied: "Just today, the text of the Zhenfu Division should also arrive, do you want to go to Lord Shen's mansion with me?"

The Suppression Division ...... Chen Xiaoting knew the meaning of these words, and knew that he had to go to the Shen Mansion today.

So Chen Xiaoting smiled and said: "You should go with me!"

After saying this, Chen Xiaoting said to Chen Dayong on the side: "Dad, Master Zhang and I will go to the Shen Mansion, and you will come to greet Liu Jianping and them later!"

Knowing that his son was going to Shen Yue's mansion, this was a big deal, so Chen Dayong supported it.

"Don't worry, I'll show you here!" Chen Dayong said with a smile.
