The Imperial Capital of Daxia, Chen Mansion, Grand Elder’s Villa.
The old man with a tile-shaped face and a hooked nose is none other than Chen Jinyang.
The next three men, all in their forties, were all standing with their heads bowed, looking anxious as if they had done something wrong.
"Trash! So many people were sent out, but you can't even follow a guy who doesn't even have hair?" Chen Jinyang cursed angrily.
Earlier, Chen Shen rode alone back outside the Chen Mansion and was greeted by Elder Shun before entering the mansion. The Great Elder had already received the news and sent his cronies to follow him.
Unexpectedly, more than a hundred people ran out without even being caught.
The three people under the great elder's seat at the moment are his newly promoted confidants, Ah Da, Ah Er and Ah San.
A few months ago, the always helpful old housekeeper and Chen Jinyang's youngest son Chen Hu died on the same day.
After that, on the day of Chen Shen's coming-of-age ceremony, the eldest son Chen Xiong and his newly promoted butler Xiao Riben were all executed, along with several young talents that Chen Jinyang had carefully cultivated over the years.
As a result, Chen Shen was established as the young master in full public view.
This incident was a big blow to the Great Elder. He has fewer and fewer capable people on hand now...
Ah Da mustered up his courage and whispered: "Master, that little brat Chen Shen is riding the one-horned red-maned beast given to him by His Majesty. He can run faster than the wind. We, we really can't do anything..."
Chen Jinyang narrowed his eyes and thought to himself: "Damn it, if this elder hadn't had no one at hand at the moment, I would have been beaten to death for the words you just boldly explained!"
After taking a deep breath, the old man said coldly: "Tell your people to keep an eye on the four gates of the city. If you see Chen Shen leaving the city, report back immediately."
"If you dare to make any mistakes again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Yes, yes..." The three of them nodded.
"Also, is there any movement at Tianqibao Pavilion?" Chen Jinyang asked again.
This old guy kept an eye on Chen Shen for the sake of his own power. If he had the chance, he would even want to kill the young man with a thousand knives to avenge the death of his eldest son Chen Xiong.
In addition, Chen Jinyang also has a task, which is to always pay attention to the movements of Tianqibao Pavilion.
Although he didn't know why the King of Huainan suddenly told him to pay attention to every move of Master Tianqi Pavilion, since he had given the order, he had to obey it in order to follow Xia Chunqiu in his career.
Earlier, the person responsible for keeping an eye on the Tianqi Pavilion had already sent a message back, saying that the master of the Tianqi Pavilion was back, and the two guards at the door shouted to see him.
Now that almost two hours had passed, Chen Jinyang was afraid that something might happen, so he asked again.
The leader of the people who were in charge of following Tianqi Bao Pavilion, Ah Er, thought for a moment and then replied: "The master of Tianqi Pavilion did not come out, but it is said that less than half an hour ago, someone saw a dozen official carriages parked at the Bao Pavilion gate.
Outside, the door of the pavilion opened wide, welcoming the group of people in."
"Official carriage?" Chen Jinyang frowned slightly: "Did you recognize who was leading the team?"
"I don't know."
The First Elder secretly cursed trash, then waved his hand impatiently to send them away, and then walked into the secret room of the cabinet on his own.
Here, there are two old men over seventy years old waiting here, one is in black robe and black face, the other is in silver robe and white face - both black and white.
Xia Caiyue stayed in Huainan to help the King of Huainan and others with their plans. With a group of royal masters protecting her, there was no need to trouble these two two-star Xuanwang realm masters.
As early as the war in Huainan started, these two Xuan Kings were sent to the imperial capital. When Chen Zangfeng, the only strong Xuan King in the Chen Mansion, led his troops, they sneaked into the Grand Elder's Courtyard without being seen by anyone and temporarily stayed in the
this.
After the other party closed the entrance to the chamber and put up a mysterious energy barrier, Heisha put down the tea cup and spoke slowly: "The Great Elder's face doesn't seem to look good, but what happened?"
"My people saw Chen Shen entering the city. However, the little beast relied on the power of the red rabbit and disappeared. He has not returned home yet. I always feel that something is fishy!" Chen Jinyang said truthfully.
"Haha, don't worry, Great Elder. You are the one who decides the Chen family now. It doesn't matter whether Chen Shen comes back or not." Hei Sha said indifferently.
Bai Sha also nodded slightly and echoed: "As long as the prince is finished, you will cooperate with our secret line in the imperial capital, climb up and shout, and let out the news that Xia Yuanlong killed Zhongliang."
"At that time, whether Chen Shen appears or not, the two of us will help you suppress all disobedient voices in the Chen family."
"If that little beast dares to show up, kill him too! It doesn't matter if he wants to be a turtle. Once Chen Zangfeng dies, how big of a storm can he, a young boy like him, create?"
Chen Jinyang sighed softly: "Oh! That's what I said, but... that little beast is cunning, and he was the one responsible for Xiong'er's death. I really can't swallow this breath without cutting him into pieces.
!”
Heisha pressed his hands to signal the other party to calm down: "As long as you cooperate with the prince's plan, when he destroys Xia and becomes an orphan, the whole world will be the king's land, and the shore of the land will be the king's ministers. I am worried that I can't find a little boy.
?”
In fact, the Black and White Shuangsha were sent to the Chen Mansion, firstly, to help Chen Jinyang suppress or eliminate the other elders of the Chen family who had made any changes after Chen Zangfeng's death, and secondly, they also wanted to express their disapproval of the great elder himself.
It has a certain monitoring effect.
Of course, the most important thing is to take Chen Jinyang out after releasing the news that "Xia Yuanlong has harmed his good ministers" - God knows how angry the King of Great Xia will be at that time?
What should we do if the emperor gets angry and kills Chen Jinyang for spreading rumors, regardless of the accusations of killing Chen Zangfeng and the public complaints?
That's why the three two-star Xuanwang escaped together so that they could take care of each other.
They firmly believed that as long as the King of Daxia did not take action personally, there was still a high chance of them escaping back to Huainan alive.
After listening to the Black and White Shuangsha's persuasion, Chen Jinyang secretly sighed: "Well, that's all we can do..."
He naturally understood that what the Black and White Shuangsha and the Huainan King behind them really valued was his identity as the great elder of the Chen Mansion.
As for expecting them to do their best to avenge themselves? Haha, don’t even think about it!
The First Elder secretly resented: "Damn it! If Chen Shen hadn't ruined my good deeds several times and ruined my image among the clan, how could I have fallen into this situation, where I can't even find any useful talents around me?
"
Thinking of Ah Da, Ah Er and Ah San's incompetence, the old man was so angry that his teeth itched, but there was nothing he could do.
He could only pin his hopes for a comeback on the King of Huainan.
This kind of situation where the fate is controlled by others is really a bit frustrating for him, the two-star Xuanwang...
