Ms. Chen came in, and immediately the two women Zhu Fu brought in before left their wine bottles and left the door.
Zhang Zhou looked at Mrs. Chen and asked with squinted eyes: "Brother and sister, are you okay?"
Now Chen is different from before. After all, she is also Zhu Feng's wife. Of course Zhang Zhou knew very well that this relationship was very awkward, because Zhu Feng was just a vase in the Chengguo Palace. To Chen, she might not even be as good as a vase.
At least you can still look at the vase. What can Zhu Feng do there?
"I am here to propose a toast to you at the order of the master of the family." After saying that, Mrs. Chen personally picked up the wine pot, only to find that all the glasses on the table had already been filled with wine. .
As for Zhang Zhou, let alone drinking, he didn’t even move his chopsticks.
But Chen is also a person who has experienced various situations. After all, she is not from a scholarly family. Chen Rui’s daughter is also a tiger girl. She usually seems honest and honest. At this time, she With great momentum, he directly picked up a glass of wine in front of Zhang Zhou and poured it on the ground.
Then he took the wine pot in one hand and the wine glass in the other. After pouring a glass of wine, just when Zhang Zhou thought she was going to deliver it, he saw Mrs. Chen raising her neck and drinking the glass of wine.
There is no need to cover the mouth with sleeves. Just the way he drinks wine makes Zhang Zhou feel that he is a "hero among women".
Why didn’t you see it before?
"Brother and sister, this is..." Zhang Zhou smiled.
He could see that Chen came here with anger, probably in a dilemma where he could not move forward or retreat.
Mr. Chen said: "I was born into a general, and suffered misfortunes since childhood. Even after I became an adult, I failed to fulfill my responsibilities as a wife and mother. I was all alone until my father sent me to a house in the city. , I want to give it to you as a gift, Mr. Zhang.”
“Don’t mention the past.” Zhang Zhou smiled.
In the past, Zhang Zhou felt that he could handle himself in various drinking parties, but when facing this woman, Zhang Zhou didn't know why, but he always felt that this woman was extraordinary.
Probably because he can't drink today, and also because women have a natural advantage at the wine table, which can be regarded as a gender advantage.
Ms. Chen said again: "So I have entered the Zhang family and been Zhang's wife for a few days."
"You can't say that." Zhang Zhou said , "When your father was alive, I mentioned that I would send you here, but I also made it clear that this was impossible. People are human beings, not gifts. You are not at the mercy of your father. Likewise, I I don’t want to do that thing of robbing civilian girls.”
Chen said: “When I arrived at Chengguo Palace, I thought I could live a stable life for a few days, but the current situation is not as good as at home. "
Zhang Zhou pointed to the dishes on the table and said: "After drinking, it's better to have something to eat."
I mean, this is the time. After one drink, why did you come to my place and act like a drunk?
I hate to hear your nonsense here?
"The Duke of Chengguo has a lot of things to do, and they want to entrust them to you, sir. They want to ask someone to do things, but they are afraid that it will be difficult to talk about it, so they ask me to do it." Mrs. Chen said.
Zhang Zhou nodded and said: "The truth is correct, but in fact, the prince of your family, your father-in-law, has told me the matter, and he just wants to go to the battlefield and win the war. ”
Ms. Chen said: “They have something they can’t talk about, so they let me take care of it. What did my father think of me before, and what do they think of me now...”
Zhang Zhou almost wanted to interrupt Chen. He wanted to remind, did you think I was talking?
How come your words are inconsistent with mine?
You are only following your own words. Can you consider my words first?
Ms. Chen looked at Zhang Zhou eagerly and said, "So, sir, I'm not leaving today. Do you want to stay here for the night?" , blocking Mrs. Chen who was aggressively trying to sit next to Zhang Zhou. At this time, Mrs. Chen seemed to have discovered that Zhang Zhou, the personal guard, was a little different from ordinary people.
"Let me introduce you." Zhang Zhou pointed at Wang Mingshan with a smile, "The daughter of the King of Jin Yiwei who commanded Qianshi is now his wife, and so is the Jinyiwei Qianhu. Since she was the deputy Qianhu , just following me. Mingshan, don’t get me wrong, she is just talking to me, not against me." Wang Mingshan took a few steps back, but did not move away, but her eyes were glaring. Looking at Mr. Chen.
At least in Wang Mingshan’s opinion, the woman in front of her had evil intentions.
Although Wang Mingshan doesn’t know much about the world, and she doesn’t want to know about it, her intuition is very sharp. Whenever she takes a look at it, she seems to know what is good and evil, right and wrong, because she has a lot of thoughts. Simple, but the most accurate view of this kind of thing.
With this, Mrs. Chen did not dare to move closer to Zhang Zhou, but she also sat opposite Zhang Zhou.
Zhang Zhoudao: "I understand what your husband's family means. If you ask for help from others, you must be courteous to others. However, based on my relationship with Zhijie, it is impossible to say that I will stand by and watch. Maybe. But there are many things that I can’t decide.”
This sounds very manageable.
Because Zhang Zhou had no intention of helping Zhu Fu.
The emperor wants to attack Jiuxun in order to help him clear the way, but he is trying to help Jiuxun. Isn’t that going against the emperor’s will and ruining his own business?
Besides, the emperor wants to attack the old ministers, not to make them completely lose power. People like Zhu Hui bring it upon themselves, and people like Zhang Mao. Although Zhang Mao is no longer in charge, Zhang There is also Zhang Rui at home.
Even if Zhu Fu loses military power, at least the Zhu family will still have Zhu Feng.
From this point of view, Zhu Youtang acted fairly. Although it seemed that he was suppressing the old heroes, he was actually helping them complete the update and iteration earlier.
Let a group of young people who respect Zhang Zhou more and be less concerned about the intrigues between the DPRK and ChinaWhen he came out to take power, he had higher energy and spirit, and was able to charge into battle on the battlefield. In Zhu Youtang's view, he did not feel sorry for anyone.
But for those old heroes, they cannot accept it, because every parent will feel that if they fail to pave the way for their children, they will be finished, and the family will be finished.
Ms. Chen said: "My lord, I have a few more words that I want to tell you. Is it convenient?"
After finishing speaking, Mrs. Chen looked at Wang Mingshan. Yes, no one can be around to listen.
Zhang Zhou shook his head and said: "If you have anything to say, just say it, it's very inconvenient for me here. When I entered this mansion, what I felt was not a warm welcome, but calculations everywhere. If you If you want to enter the inner courtyard, just tell your father-in-law that I don't like the way your family treats guests. Originally, when we sat down to have tea and drinks, it was all about friendship, but now I feel that all the talk is... haha. ”
Zhang Zhou was embarrassed to say the word adultery.
Ms. Chen stood up and looked into the inner room first.
The curtain had been opened, but the tables and shelves inside were still the same. She immediately turned her eyes to Zhang Zhou again.
She said: "Sir, you are here today. If you don't make some promises, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to do business after I go back. I will no longer talk about the demands of the Chen family. Now I just want to ask you a word for the Duke of Cheng. Please be kind to the Duke of Cheng."
Zhang Zhou asked curiously: "What kind of flattery?"
" Since the founding of the Chengguo Palace, it has never had to rely on others to gain a foothold in the court. Nowadays, there are very few princes and princes from various families in the court who can gain a foothold in the court, unless they seek refuge with someone. Your disciples, you have offended many people by doing this. Maybe you have His Majesty’s support and there are so many good people around you, so you are not afraid, but for those... who are sincerely working for you, they have to worry. ”
When Chen spoke, he seemed neither humble nor overbearing, as if he was negotiating with Zhang Zhou.
The tone was somewhat sad, but it also seemed to be an accusation against Zhang Zhou.
Look at you...
What have you done to our Ming Dynasty ministers?
Those who follow you will prosper, and those who go against you will perish.
You bring so many people with you when you go in and out. Obviously you are afraid of retribution, but even so, can everyone around you be safe?
"What you said is true." Zhang Zhou smiled, "But you are wrong in one thing. No one in the court is helping me. If there is, it must be a misunderstanding, because everyone I am doing things for the imperial court.”
Ms. Chen continued her own topic as if she didn’t hear Zhang Zhou’s words: “If you don’t listen, I will. I will die here with my sword today."
"..."
Zhang Zhou was speechless this time.
Sure enough...
This woman is extraordinary. She threatened him with death. If it had been anyone else, it would have been fine if she had listened to this.It was like hearing a joke.
Who are you threatening with death? You love it to death.
But Zhang Zhou is a civilized man. If someone comes to ask him to do something, he will die if he doesn't do it. If he really dies, then he will still have some regrets.
This is a bit of a moral kidnapping.
But based on Zhang Zhou’s understanding of the Chen family... this woman’s life experience can be considered to be rich and colorful. Her old father is away from home all year round, and she has been out to run the family for a long time. Later, she married someone and soon became the boss of the family. She became a widow, and when she returned home, her old father gave him Zhang Zhou as a gift. After it was returned, she was married back to Zhu Feng, and then she was used as a vase.
Today, her husband’s family even asked her to come out as a lobbyist. Of course, being a lobbyist is not just about talking, it must have been secretly given. As long as Zhang Zhou can help Zhu Fu gain recognition in the army, If she has a certain status or wins a battle, even if she is killed, the Chengguo Palace will not feel sorry for her.
Previously, Duke Chengguo’s Mansion had given Zhang Zhou a Marquis of Anbian, and he would not be stingy with the second one now.
Anyway, given Zhu Feng’s personality, why should he marry again?
It’s just that Zhang Zhou pitied a heartless person like Zhu Feng. Although from Zhu Feng’s point of view, it might be nothing, he was still being used by the family, even Zhu Feng’s nominal wife. Indignant, but Zhu Feng himself didn't seem to care.
Zhang Zhou grimaced and said: "Go back and tell your father-in-law that this time he goes to the battlefield, he must have someone with knowledge to help him. If not, he will not be able to win this battle. "It's not that Zhu Zhijie is very capable, but that he knows etiquette, justice and integrity." "I don't understand," said Chen.
"You don't need to listen, you just need to take my words with you." Zhang Zhou said, "Also, I made an agreement with Mr. Yang, the admiral of Dongchang, that if I don't go out for half an hour after I come in, he will Someone came to the door, so I have to leave today, and I can't delay, unless something bad happens to the family." Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen's eyes lit up.
That feeling is... didn't you tell me earlier?
Originally, I could let you go, but now you'd better not leave. It's better to make the emperor feel that Cheng Guogong's mansion is going to be a monster, and it's better to make this mansion a mess.
Zhang Zhou knew from Chen's little reaction what kind of mental changes this woman had experienced in recent years... Now this woman is almost a little bit crazy.
This also shows that when people encounter the same dilemma, not everyone can cope with it easily. Just like Ning Tong almost suffered a psychological distortion in the end, but this new Mrs. Anbian Hou is Completely defeated by the shamelessness of the Zhu family, he was already on the verge of collapse.
Zhang Zhou got up. He did not intend to wait for Zhu Fu to come back. He said to Chen, "I'm leaving first, so I don't need anyone from the house to see me off. By the way, tell your father-in-law for me, what happened earlier?" Those two girls are good. As for you... live a good life with Zhijie. Some things are not going well, but as long as you do it with your heart, don't worry about so many gains and losses. Your brother's inheritance of the title will probably happen today.The end of the year to the beginning of next year. If no one has disapproved of your family, then everything remains the same and there is no need to ask again. ”
Zhang Zhou had no intention of telling the truth to Chen before.
Seeing that this woman was going crazy from torture, he really couldn’t bear it.
Probably, there is no need to be pretentious.
And Chen’s immediate reaction was... She was already prepared to break the pot, but why did she suddenly... Is it clear?
Except Zhang Zhou said that as long as her husband goes to war with his father-in-law, he can get help and even win the war... Although this is not completely in the interests of the husband's family, it is still acceptable. .
As for the elder brother of the Chen family, can he also get corresponding promises?
This glass of wine... is not much, is it drunk? < /p>
Why is the thing in front of me so unreal?
......
......
Zhang Zhou didn't say anything to Chen. Taking the opportunity, he immediately led people to the door of Chengguo Palace.
After arriving at the door, Yang Peng happened to lead people, and there was a rush of footsteps behind him, but it was Zhu. When Fu heard that Zhang Zhou was about to leave, he went out to chase him in a hurry... It's not that he had evil intentions, but he felt that he didn't greet him well and failed to complete his instructions.
"Sir, don't do it. Let's go. "Zhu Fu had just chased him to the door. When he saw Yang Peng arriving with a group of guards, he was dumbfounded.
He stood there and could not move.
Yang Peng said with a smile : "I heard that Mr. Zhang came to visit Duke Chengguo. Our family happened to have something to say to Mr. Zhang. We didn't disturb the two of us while they were drinking and chatting, right? ”
Zhu Fu can hear two meanings from this passage.
One is that Yang Peng knows Zhang Zhoulin’s affairs very well, and Yang Peng is on a mission They came here to ensure Zhang Zhou's safety and at the same time ensure that Zhang Zhou would not be transferred to Pansi Cave or influenced by the Zhu family...
Zhu Fu said: "Never before, Eunuch Yang came here. A humble position is a welcome loss. "
"I dare not take it seriously. Yang Peng said with a smile, "It seems that the matter is over, so why not... change the place to talk?" "
"No, no need. "Zhu Fu said.
Zhang Zhou smiled and said: "Mr. Cheng Guo, you have misunderstood. Eunuch Yang means that you want to discuss things with me in another place. You can go back first. Wait for another day to visit.
