Does the eldest lady have a fever when she wants to cooperate with her former abandoned young master?
Many people in the Chen family felt that they could not accept such a request.
"If it hadn't been for Li Xiaoman, our Chen family wouldn't have suffered such a shame and humiliation, and the great master wouldn't have left seclusion."
"He is also one of the murderers who killed the great master."
"If his father hadn't been a prince, it wouldn't have been his turn to ride on top of us."
Everyone was unconvinced.
Chen Bing looked at everyone's various reactions and did not object in a hurry. After decades of ups and downs, he was considered a half-wise man and had to sit back and observe the overall situation.
Chen Wan's words just now made him suddenly enlightened. Chen Bing signaled everyone to be silent, and then said: "Regarding the matter of cooperation with Li Xiaoman, no one in the Chen family will slander Young Master Li in the future, otherwise they will be punished according to family law."
Discuss."
Now that the Chen family has been defeated by others, and the Chen family's grand master has died without explanation, it can be said that the Chen family is really at a critical moment of life and death. If they offend the important officials of the court again, will the Chen family really not want to stay in Qingcheng Town? Even if he and his grand master
His death has nothing to do with it, and he must endure it. If he doesn't tolerate it, he will mess up his big plans.
"Wan'er is right. With Li Xiaoman's background and martial arts skills, by forming an alliance with him, the crisis our Chen family encountered this time can not only be resolved, but also gain a foothold in Qingcheng Town again." The more Chen Bing said, the more he felt that what his daughter said was very reasonable.
.
"Li Xiaoman saved that star general. If our Chen family forms an alliance with him, and if that star general really comes, Li Xiaoman will not sit idly by and do nothing." Chen Qing agreed.
Chen Qing originally said that he was right, but after Chen Wan said this, and thought about it carefully, now that he has lost his father as the backbone, the Chen family's power has been challenged like never before and cannot be severely hit again. Otherwise, the Chen family's
Hundreds of warriors will find their own way out.
Chen Zhen was a little disapproving and said: "The Shenwuju Provincial Examination has begun. Wan'er has now broken through the ninth level of Zhenqi, and Cangwu Swordsmanship has also improved a lot. How about we wait until after the Provincial Examination, as long as we win first place, then we can go
By forming an alliance with him, we will have full confidence when the time comes."
The meaning of his words couldn't be more clear, so there are many people who hold this view.
"Uncle, this is absolutely not possible." Chen Wan immediately denied it.
"Why?" Chen Zhen was still surprised.
"Uncle also knows the principle of 'change comes later', not to mention no one knows when that star general will come to the Chen family? By then we haven't formed an alliance with Jianhe Villa, isn't it all over? With Jianhe
The sooner the Villa forms an alliance, the better it will be for us. And not many people know about Li Xiaoman's skills yet, and his influence is not as good as our Chen family's. Now is the best time to form an alliance with him."
"Wan'er, you are so thoughtful. I wish my uncle were half as smart as you." Chen Zhen couldn't help but admire.
"Uncle, please don't say that. The revitalization of the Chen family depends on everyone's concerted efforts." Chen Wan has learned from the cruel world that the weak eat the strong.
For her, she has experienced too many joys and sorrows in the past week. After several heads of the Chen family discussed it, the matter was immediately settled, and then they ordered a grand burial.
The great master entered the ancestral hall.
Everyone knelt down solemnly in front of the spiritual throne.
Finally, everyone started to take action enthusiastically.
At night, Chen Wan was ready. At this time, not many people knew about Tai Lao Ye's death. Chen Bing knew that he had to make a major decision before the chaos in Qingcheng Town.
If we can form an alliance with Jianhe Villa, the Chen family can quickly increase their strength. Chen Zhen thought.
Li Xiaoman heard the news that Chen Yuan's body appeared in the teahouse at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain. To be honest, he was still surprised, because Chen Yuan was buried by himself, but now he was dug out. Obviously, this man and the Chen family must have a huge relationship.
Celebrate the holidays.
This person can't be Mu Yuwei, even though she is the messenger of the demon clan, could it be her aunt? She doesn't really intend to kill the chickens and scare the monkeys to destroy the entire Chen family, right?
When Li Xiaoman thought about this, he felt that it was impossible. It would be too cruel for his aunt to do this. However, based on his understanding of his aunt's personality, although her character was very violent, she would not commit such a deed of humiliation.
.
"Master, the Chen family would like to see you." Just as he was thinking about it, guard Wang Wu came in to report.
"I know." Li Xiaoman still couldn't figure out who did it, so he had to wait for the guests first.
Li Xiaoman came to the lobby of Jianhe Villa, and what surprised him even more was that the Chen family's property deeds were put aside. The Chen family took out all the assets in Qingzhou Prefecture and several neighboring prefectures.
You will understand it at a glance.
The leader was Chen Zhen, the eldest son of the Chen family. They stood respectfully and stared at the changes on Li Xiaoman's face, wanting to see what his expression was. However, they were disappointed. Li Xiaoman was so calm and composed.
Don't show any emotion.
After a long time, Li Xiaoman looked up after reading the stack of land deeds, and asked doubtfully: "Uncle Chen, what are you doing? Aren't these the property of your Chen family?"
"In the past, people in the Chen family were ignorant and offended Master Li a lot. I hope you will forgive me. From now on, the Chen family wants to form an alliance with the Master's Jianhe Villa. With the Master as the leader, we, the Chen family, will do our best to make sure that we
Do the work of dogs and horses for the young master."
Chen Zhen, who had always been arrogant and arrogant, felt extremely lost and sad when he said these humble words.
Li Xiaoman felt that there must be some conspiracy inside, and after he tested it again, he replied: "Thanks to the Chen family's seniors' love for Wansheng, the alliance can be easily discussed, but the title deed of this property has been owned by your Chen family for hundreds of years."
I really dare not accept the wealth I have accumulated."
Chen Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. He had predicted that Li Xiaoman would say this before he came, but he still didn't expect that Li Xiaoman would be so forthcoming. He also made the worst plan. If Li Xiaoman really accepted it, then the three of his brothers would really
I was too embarrassed to see the folks in Qingcheng Town again. I didn't expect that Li Xiaoman would be so broad-minded, and he didn't mean to be embarrassed at all. He called him Uncle Chen, a senior, which made Chen Zhen feel very comfortable.
This kid is unfathomable and his future is limitless. I'm afraid no one in the Chen family can match him.
"Is Miss Chen's health okay?" Li Xiaoman asked.
"Ah, she has been practicing recently, preparing for the Shenwu County Examination. Thank you Mr. Li for your concern. If Wan'er has offended Mr. Li in the past, I hope he will forgive you." Chen Zhen replied.
The other followers of the Chen family nodded.
"We also attach great importance to the Shenwuju this time." Chen Zhen's implication is that the Chen family wants to use this time to restore their reputation.
Li Xiaoman smiled and thought to himself, this Chen Wan did not disappoint the Chen family. After several setbacks, he became more and more courageous. This is an excellent quality that a human star warrior should have.
Li Xiaoman was about to say what else he wanted to say when he saw Chen Zhen, but he hesitated and quickly asked: "Does Chen Bing have anything else to explain?"
"Exactly! Our Chen family still has something to ask Mr. Li for help." Chen Zhen simply went all out and said shamelessly, "It's about that star general."
"Star general?" Li Xiaoman pretended not to know.
"To be honest, Mr. Li, my father went to Qingcheng Mountain to look for the star general for a decisive battle. Unexpectedly, he was ambushed by the other party... However, I can't blame others for this. If I want to blame, I can only blame the Chen family for being audacious. It's just that the star general killed me.
Father, I still don’t know if she will attack other members of my Chen family? Mr. Li once rescued General Xing, so I kindly ask Mr. Li to come forward and intercede for the Chen family. Hundreds of people in the Chen family will always remember Li.
The great kindness of the young master."
"It's easy to say that your Chen family's problems are my Jianhe Villa's problems. If one day Xingjiang goes to settle accounts with the Chen family, I will definitely help you intercede in person." Li Xiaoman's upright and upright look reassured the Chen family present.
, Chen Zhen then chatted with Li Xiaoman for a while.
Finally, Chen Zhen stood up and resigned: "That's it. I hope Mr. Li will worry about that matter. Then I won't disturb the young master's rest. We will retire now."
After watching them leave, Li Xiaoman turned to Wang Wu and asked, "How is Xu Jian doing there?"
"He doesn't know yet, Master, that you can practice now." Wang Wu replied.
"Oh?" Li Xiaoman hummed, "I'm going to practice in seclusion these days. You can continue to watch over there."
"yes."
...
A few days later, the provincial examination for Shenwuju finally officially began.
Qingcheng Town, martial arts arena.
At this time, there was a huge crowd of people, all the warriors in the town gathered together, and some ordinary people also came to watch the game.
The Shenwu Examination is a major examination held every four years in the Tang Dynasty. Male and female warriors under the age of twenty can participate. The Shenwu Examination is divided into three stages: the provincial examination, the general examination, and the palace examination.
Those who can successfully pass the first stage of the rural examination of Shenwuju are called Wujuren. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, they cannot be punished as high officials, and they have a ten-year preferential policy of being exempted from miscellaneous taxes. If a family wants to develop, it must have Wujuren before it can become a noble family.
Among them, the rural examination is based on towns. Each town has only one quota for direct promotion without examination, and five quota for promotion through competition. The promotion quota can be directly promoted to the entrance examination.
The competition can be said to be very fierce. In the past, the quota of martial arts candidates in Qingcheng Town was controlled by the three major families, Chen family, Zhao family and Shen family.
Before this Shenwuju provincial examination, Chen Wanna from the Chen family was the most popular candidate to be exempted from the examination. As the daughter of the first family in Qingcheng Town, a talented martial artist, the previous generation's Shenwuju winner in Qingcheng Town's martial arts examination was
Her eldest brother Chen Fei, if nothing unexpected happens, the Chen family is very likely to win the first place in the provincial examination for two generations in a row. From now on, Chen Fei will be the number one in Qingcheng Town.
However, some rumors still spread.
"I heard that the Chen family has formed an alliance with Jianhe Villa."
"The Chen family is turning around very fast. Even Mr. Chen is dead. Other families have long been coveting the top spot. Now with the background of Jianhe Villa, the Chen family can be considered to have a backer." (To be continued.)
