"No, the Chen family didn't cheat me very much. As for the scum in every family, I don't care much about it." Chen Xi said indifferently.
It's true that you can't retaliate with kindness, but seeing that the people who bullied him before are no different from ants in front of him, Chen Xi really doesn't have the heart to make up for it. In Chen Xi's view, his current situation is already a waste to the other party.
The biggest trouble.
Chen Xi didn't believe it at all. Someone could still sleep soundly after finding out that the sidekick he bullied two years ago had become the Prime Minister of ***.
If there is such a big-hearted person, Chen Xi will definitely convince him that he does not need to do anything at all, the bureaucracy will be solved naturally within the family.
"Does the head of the family think that the Chen family has not supported enough in the past few years?" Chen Shang looked at Chen Xi who looked indifferent and understood that this was not what they thought.
"It's nothing." Chen Xi's reaction was a little slow. "Your support, let me think about it, is actually very useful. The other four thousand craftsmen are nothing. As you are good at adding icing on the cake, you have made my work a little less difficult.
.”
Chen Guang and Chen Shang looked at each other and smiled bitterly, feeling that their Chen family's value as one of the few aristocratic families in the world was just that much. Aren't their political power and inherent popular support nothing?
"May I ask the head of the family, who suggested that the Chen family go to the Western Regions?" Chen Guang gritted his teeth and went straight to the topic. Although he knew that since Chen Xi passed it, it meant that the matter was acceptable to Chen Xi, but the rest of the Chen family
At least you need to know who the enemy is.
"I proposed it." Chen Xi looked at the Chen family elders speechlessly, "I don't propose it. Who dares to propose it? I make the decision on all non-military matters."
"Patriarch, can you bear to have your brothers and sisters go to that distant Western Region?" Chen Shang almost cried. It has been a thousand or two thousand years since the aristocratic era, and he has never seen a patriarch who is so careless about his family.
"Oh, the Western Region is pretty good." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, "I personally appointed him, and Zijing even tried to persuade me, but I rejected it."
Chen Shang and Chen Guang no longer knew what to say at this time. This is not how they should promote high moral integrity. Why did the Chen family end up with such a head of the family?
"Okay, I know what you mean, but..." The laughter on Chen Xi's face faded and he became serious, "From now on, every word I say, you remember to say it out of my mouth and into your ears."
, you can never tell anyone unless you die for someone in the clan!"
Chen Guang and Chen Shang looked at Chen Xi's cold eyes. It was the first time in such a long time that the gentle and elegant Chen Xi showed such a look.
Seeing that Chen Shang and Chen Guang were ready, Chen Xi ordered Chen Yun to take the map and hang it on the back wall. Chen Yun then lowered her head and waited there.
"Elder Shang should still remember what I once said about controlling a small country with one or two big families." Chen Xi did not mention the map behind him, but only mentioned what he had said before.
"The head of the family did say that after Shang returned to the Chen family, he also sent someone to deduce this method. It is indeed possible, but on the one hand, it is a small country with few people, and on the other hand, it is close to the Han Dynasty. Our family is located in the Central Plains and can be controlled from a distance, so why bother
Move to such a barbaric land." Chen Shang nodded and said.
Chen Xi proposed this plan at the time, which was considered to be a semi-fool to Chen Shang, but Chen Shang believed it to be true, and went home to find someone to deduce it. In the end, he came to the conclusion that this was a good strategy, and it could be used as a way out for the Chen family.
Find one or two families and join forces to lay out the plan.
In this way, the main body of the aristocratic family is located in the Central Plains, where they can enjoy the vastness of the Han Dynasty, and have a way to make money and save their lives. If something goes wrong, they can return to other countries and spend one or two generations to make a comeback. All that is needed is to arrange secret arrangements in other countries.
It's just that the Chen family hasn't chosen the third alliance company yet. Of course, the second family has already been chosen, which is the Xun family. These two families have known each other for hundreds of years, and they know each other thoroughly, so they don't have to worry about being framed by the other party, and
Both parties have very deep backgrounds.
The third family was originally determined to be the Sima family. Although the family background is relatively small, it is still considered a member of the Chen family. With help, it will be easier to deal with the Xun family. The Eight Dragons of the Xun family have not yet died, and the next generation of those who defy heaven have come out. Chen
Although the home is not bad, a tiger cannot stand up to a pack of wolves, so you have to find a helper.
However, Sima Fang has given birth to a son recently, and people are talking a lot. The Chen family thinks it is better to wait. Anyway, the family does things according to generations, and is not in a hurry. If I remember correctly, the family is anxious to climb to the top.
dead.
Only this kind of family, which is neither in a hurry nor slow, and plans its layout based on decades, has the leisure and elegance to sit and watch the world. Anyway, if they can't destroy the family, they have plenty of time, watch him rise from the building, watch him entertain guests, watch him,
The building collapsed! This is how a thousand-year-old family has time to watch jokes.
"Oh, I overturned that plan." Chen Xi casually vetoed the plan that Chen Shang had spent a lot of effort on, and made Chen Guang's eyes shine when he said it. At this moment, Chen Shang only felt a mouthful of old blood pooling in his heart. It was really
I have the urge to spray Chen Xi in the face.
"Head of the family..." Chen Shang's face turned pale, "Even if you overturn this plan, you must at least give a reason. This is almost a century-old plan to benefit the Chen family!"
"Because you are too young. I know that the main reason why you stay in the Han Dynasty is because of the vast land and abundant resources here. Well, I have changed my plan and am going to give the Chen family a country." Chen Xi said calmly that made Chen Shang's heart burst.
Chen Guang's breathing was obviously much heavier at this time, but then he calmed down and calmed down his mentality, "Master, the Chen family has held the throne twice, but those two times caused the greatest harm to the Chen family.
Lost the throne."
Chen Shang also calmed down at this time, and took over Chen Guang's words, "Once, the main line of the Chen family only had one direct descendant left. If it had not been foreseen and the family was divided in advance, it would be difficult for the direct descendants of the clan to retain one person. The throne is very important to a thousand-year-old family.
, I will never get involved unless I have to."
"We are all just adding fuel to the flames. Who has ever seen us standing on the cusp of the storm?" A trace of ridicule appeared on Chen Guang's face.
"The best way to make the family survive forever is to branch out and go to the court, recruit poor families and form our strength among civil and military officials. If it weren't for the purge in troubled times, we would never have seen us take the stage in person." Chen Shang also had the same look, and he could
In a family that has survived for five hundred years, the elders have clear minds, if nothing else.
"When we are young, we will become officials, but when the time comes, we will retire if we can. Even if the country recruits us again, we will not go back." Chen Guang nodded and said.
When they were young, they were enterprising and flamboyant, serving as the mouthpiece of the family. However, when they reached a certain level, their clear-mindedness would fade away, leaving only a few suitable people as the leaders of their force to ensure the success of their family in the court.
