Because they were going to college, brothers Chen Ying and Chen Xiong did not immediately see their second brother Chen Wu who returned home in glory.
That’s fine too…
Chen Ying's current character design is ordinary and transparent, but there is no idea of making people compare themselves to the mud.
If he were in the palace, the duchess and his mistress would definitely want him as a foil. Don't think that the dignified duchess would not have such a bad taste.
I don’t know if I felt that the reception banquet at noon was not enough, or something was missing.
When it came time for dinner, the Duchess set up several tables in the form of a family banquet, and the dishes were rich and precious.
Chen Ying didn't disrupt his "advance" plan just because Chen Wu came back. He still ran to the garden to observe the tiger for half an hour, then hurried back to his residence, changed clothes, washed himself, and rushed to the main house as soon as possible.
Greetings from the hospital.
The moment he saw his second brother Chen Wu, a clearer premonition of danger arose in his heart.
But that’s it…
It suddenly became clear in my heart that this guy's strength was estimated to have just reached Danjin not long ago.
Not much different than Chen Xiong’s little fat uncle Zhao Ranruo!
I just don’t know what the levels are in the internal force cultivation system?
Because of the special environment of the main world, the internal force cultivation system is regarded as a high-end thing, so the Zhenbei Palace has done a pretty good job of keeping the secrets of cultivation in this area secret. At least Chen Ying still can't figure out what internal force cultivation is.
What criteria are used to distinguish between high and low levels?
The public library in the mansion has no such collection at all.
As for the other two more private library pavilions, with his current strength and status in the mansion, he is not qualified to borrow books there.
This is the most authentic style of a wealthy family...
The difference between concubines and concubines is not just a matter of words, but is reflected in every aspect of daily life. People can clearly feel it but there is nothing they can do about it.
For example, Chen Ying could only hang out the resources of the library in the largest and probably the most common public library, but the other two more important libraries in the mansion had nothing to do with him.
This is the treatment of a concubine!
Chen Ying didn't feel there was anything wrong. Such a hierarchical approach was not without its benefits.
At least, his frequent visits to the public library will not attract much attention.
Of course, with his current strength, he could only enter the most common two floors. The really critical third floor of the public library was tightly protected by expert guards, so he had no chance to enter and explore it openly.
I heard that there are dozens of advanced internal martial arts secrets inside, all of which are powerful secrets that directly lead to martial arts Dan Jin and even Gang Jin.
At the moment, Chen Ying has no way to enter. At least he has to wait for the completion of "Tiger Roaring Power" and the nod from the duke and his mistress to be eligible to enter.
He just didn't know if there was a secret book on internal strength cultivation on the third floor of the public library. He wanted to find out the secrets.
Without further ado, the atmosphere of the dinner this time was quite good.
No matter what the three aunts were thinking, they all had expressions of admiration on their faces, and they praised their second son Chen Wu from time to time.
Chen Wu did not dare to make any mistakes at home, especially in front of his aunts. His attitude was very humble and he did not show any signs of being domineering.
Even the little fat man Chen Xiong, who has always been arrogant, seems to know that now is not the time for him to show off his power, so he must be honest and settled.
Of course, it was impossible for a nine-year-old boy who showed all his thoughts on his fat face to flatter Chen Wu, his second brother.
Chen Ying was sitting in the corner, still a little transparent, and could not arouse the slightest interest from everyone present. Chen Wu naturally ignored him.
A lively family dinner came to an end, and nothing happened during the period...
The duke's mistress had a gentle smile on her face, the three aunts were all smiling and the atmosphere was harmonious. Chen Ying and Chen Xiong were as silent as if they had disappeared, and the two concubines also huddled beside their mothers and did not dare to show their heads.
But Chen Wu, who was the focus of the family dinner, suddenly asked: "I heard that the fourth brother was personally taught by his uncle?"
Aunt Zhao's heart trembled, she nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, it happened that my brother had nothing to do, so I invited him to teach Xiong'er!"
"I heard that Zhao Ranruo is a very famous master in the North!"
Chen Wu smiled and said: "If it is possible, I would like to have a discussion with him. I don't know if it is possible?"
The room where the family banquet was held suddenly became silent, and everyone's eyes turned to Aunt Zhao, whose expression suddenly changed.
"You just came back, you don't need to work so hard, right?"
Aunt Zhao's face turned green and red, and she quickly returned to normal with a smile: "It's not too late to wait for you to adjust your condition to the best before communicating with my brother!"
Chen Wu smiled slightly, he didn't necessarily mean to compete with Zhao Ranruo, it was just a small knock, just...
"My younger uncle is very powerful, and my second brother may not be his opponent!"
A naughty kid is a naughty kid. He suddenly jumped out and said something at the critical moment, which immediately made the atmosphere in the room very weird.
Aunt Zhao gave her worried son a hard look. The gentle smile on the face of the duke and his mistress gradually solidified, and the other two aunts lowered their heads and remained silent...
The smile on Chen Wu's face froze, and he nodded: "Since the fourth brother is so confident, then brother, I would rather go against the sun and go to Beidi Academy to meet your uncle tomorrow for a discussion. How about that?"
"Yeah……"
The naughty kid didn't know what it meant to be afraid. When his second brother Chen Wu spoke like this, he immediately clapped his hands and cheered repeatedly. Looking at the excitement on his little fat face, it was obvious that he didn't know what was going on.
have to!
Aunt Zhao, who originally wanted to redeem her, suddenly became stiff and speechless.
Things just settled down inexplicably.
Chen Ying saw this and smiled in her heart. She didn't expect the little fat man to be so awesome.
Tomorrow's sparring session will be watched by everyone whatever he says. This is a great opportunity for exchanges and sparring between masters of internal strength.
The night is hazy and the cold wind is howling...
Scattered snowflakes fall from time to time. It is said that it is already the beginning of spring, but in the north it still looks like the twelfth lunar month of winter.
The middle-aged and prosperous Mama Li was carrying an angry wind lantern, illuminating an area less than half a foot in radius, and walked slowly towards the small courtyard where she lived.
There was no words all the way, but when she saw the familiar outline of the small courtyard, Li Ma suddenly spoke in a low voice: "Tonight, the fourth young master got into trouble!"
The power of the soul senses that there are no outsiders in a ten-meter radius area. Chen Ying smiled and said: "I think this is a good thing?"
"Can it be a good thing to offend the second young master?"
Li Ma looked confused and couldn't help turning her head to look at Chen Ying, her eyes full of doubts and confusion.
He waved his hand to indicate that this was not the place to talk.
After entering the small courtyard, he took the hot water from the little maid Liu Lu, leaned on the sofa and said with a smile: "It's okay to show the carriage and horse!"
Seeing that Li Ma was still confused, he smiled and explained: "The second brother's purpose is nothing more than to tell Zhao Ranruo to retreat and stop teaching the fourth brother!"
Li Ma nodded, isn't this something obvious?
Chen Ying then said leisurely: "If the second brother refuses to take action, it is obvious that he wants to use his power to suppress others. Zhao Ranruo simply cannot resist it!"
Definitely!
Although the Zhao family is powerful in the North, it is far inferior to Zhenbeigong's mansion. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Zhao family is the retainers of Zhenbeigong.
If Chen Wu, the second son of Zhenbeigong Mansion, showed his chariots and horses to overpower others, Zhao Ranruo would really not have the guts to resist.
"Now that the fourth brother has made his words clear, the second brother has to compete with Zhao Ranruo!"
Speaking of this, Chen Ying smiled and said: "If the second brother cannot win quickly, or wins with an extremely obvious advantage, will he still have the nerve to ask Zhao Ranruo to leave?"
You see, the Tangtang Zhenbei Gongfu had high hopes for the second son to inherit the power of Zhenbei Gongjun, but he was unable to fully suppress the direct lineage martial arts of the Zhao family in terms of martial arts.
Once such a situation occurs, Chen Wu's face will not look good, and the entire Zhenbei Palace will be humiliated.
Therefore, the naughty boy's nonsense this time has seriously deceived Chen Wu, his second brother.
Of course, if he could win easily during the sparring match, it would be another story.
After thinking about the joints, Li Ma couldn't help being shocked and exclaimed: "Is this what Aunt Zhao meant? Isn't she afraid of offending Madam?"
"What could be Aunt Zhao's intention?"
Chen Ying rolled his eyes and said: "It's probably the fourth brother's own idea, and he has never thought about it, okay?"
As he spoke, he said with a smile: "Now that the matter is over, what if the mistress is angry?"
Aunt Zhao is not a light-hearted person, and the Duke and Mistress cannot do anything to her unless she has made an obvious mistake.
At most, life is just a little more difficult...
But if Zhao Ranruo, the little fat man's uncle, can continue to stay, Aunt Zhao will probably have to grit her teeth and hold on even if she feels a little wronged.
Li Ma was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what she was doing. She shook her head and didn't say anything. She sighed secretly in her heart.
The fourth young master and his mother-in-law, Aunt Zhao, help with the management, but his own young master...
At the family dinner in the evening, she and Chen Ying huddled in the corner together. How could she not see that the second young master's purpose was to target the fourth young master.
The fourth young master can still refute, but his third young master is a little transparent, and no one pays attention to him or even gives him a look.
Of course, Chen Ying didn't know what Li Ma was thinking. If she knew, she would probably be depressed to death.
It was obvious that his establishment was quite solid, and even Ma Li, who was closest to him, firmly believed in it.
But there was nothing he could do about it. Although he was already eleven years old at this time, there was still a gap of four years between the age of fifteen when he could leave the house and walk normally.
When hanging out in the mansion, you have to abide by the rules of the duke and his mistress, otherwise your life will be difficult.
He didn't make any fuss. With the idea of thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, why put himself in danger and fight for the air? It was better to grow steadily and mediocrely...
