Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 227

After gaining the support of Qi De's vote, Chen Yunfu calculated that even if he was close to more than half, but Chen Yunfu did not visit the other Jiuqing, but went straight to the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion.

Tonight, Xu Huizu held a banquet in the Mansion of the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies, including Lan Yu, Feng Sheng and other state princes. All the ten governors of the Mansion of the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies were present, as well as some marquises.

Although Chen Yunfu is a civil servant, he still has the title of county marquis on his head, so he is not considered an outsider.

By the time Chen Yunfu arrived, it was a bit late, these martial arts heroes had already started drinking, and the atmosphere in the hall was in full swing.

"Wu Zhonghou is here, come and sit down."

Li Jinglong's eyes were sharp, and he saw Chen Yunfu at a glance, and hurriedly greeted: "There is a seat reserved for you."

"Wu Zhonghou is here, hurry up."

Wu Xun, who went to drink in the hall, didn't know Chen Yunfu, and greeted the latter one after another, what's more, holding the wine glass, he was about to walk away with Chen Yunfu.

After thanking each other for their kindness, Chen Yunfu walked between Xu Huizu and Lan Yu.

"My lords, sit down quickly, please sit down, if you don't sit down, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat this meal tonight."

It turned out that when Chen Yunfu was walking towards him, Xu Huizu had already taken the lead and stood up.

This table is full of princes, but everyone stood up to greet them.

"Okay, let's all sit down."

Xu Huizu grabbed Chen Yunfu's forearm and pulled the latter to sit down.

"Why did Duke Wei wake up to hold this banquet tonight?"

Chen Yunfu looked around, and said in disbelief: "The military generals of the Kingdom are all here tonight."

"It's been a long time since we got together. Just in time, the guards from all over the country have returned to Beijing. It's rare that the number of people is so neat. I thought of taking this opportunity to drink and talk together. Reminiscing about the past."

Xu Huizu pointed to Li Jinglong with a smile and said, "Coincidentally, Cao Guogong also had the same idea. We hit it off immediately, and we had this banquet."

"Good thing, good thing." Chen Yunfu held up his wine glass and said, "The one who comes down is the latest, three people will be fined first."

After all, he straightened his neck and drank three glasses in a row without any sloppiness, and then put down the wine glass and took the chopsticks.

"Wu Zhonghou is a good drinker."

"Pride."

All the princes at the table praised, but Lan Yu, who was sitting on Chen Yunfu's right hand, remained silent.

"Hey, Sapphire, just now you were the happiest dancer and the most noisy one. Why did you keep silent when Marquis Wu Zhong came?"

Lan Yu raised her eyebrows: "What am I talking about? I'm not like you girls who can chat a few words. I, Lao Lan, are not that delicate. If I drink, I drink. If I don't drink, what I say is nonsense."

Chen Yunfu shook his head helplessly, Lan Yu's temper really hasn't changed at all, this mouth is still so annoying.

First, the great victory in the fishing of Yuerhai, and then the pacification of the West Fanman, and the expansion of land for thousands of miles in the west and north directions respectively. These numerous achievements have indeed boosted Lan Yu's arrogance a lot.

Everyone at the table knew about Lan Yu's virtues, and they didn't bother to talk to him when they saw him like this. They continued to chat with Chen Yunfu, but Lan Yu stopped him with a big hand.

"It's so annoying, if you want to ask, just ask quickly, Wu Zhonghou, do you know why I invited you here tonight?"

Chen Yunfu smiled at Lan Yu: "Why?"

"Big guy just wanted to ask you if the crown prince's enthronement edict has been drawn up."

"Almost."

Chen Yunfu glanced around, with a bright smile on his face: "Your Majesty knows what the dukes want to ask, it's not a big deal, it's just a difference between knowing early and knowing late, since duke Liang asked the question, then The official will give you a sigh of relief.

After the new dynasty, everyone who deserves a seal, a reward that deserves a reward, and a reward that deserves to be added, everyone here has a share. "

As soon as the words came out, the whole audience cheered.

"Haha, it's still Wu Zhonghou's pleasure, come on, I'll toast Wu Zhonghou."

Chang Mao held up the cup first, and then Deng Zhen and others all raised their glasses to respect Chen Yunfu.

Xu Huizu also showed a smile on his face, taking advantage of Chen Yunfu's drinking, he quietly pulled the latter's sleeve and asked in a low voice.

"Wu Zhonghou, then my brother Zengshouna"

"I will add an uncle, but it is Liujue." Chen Yunfu responded in a low voice: "There is no way, my brother has no military achievements, and this Liubo's title still inherits the shadow of Zhongshan King."

"I know, I know."

Xu Huizu still smiled, and patted Chen Yunfu's hand frequently: "Thank you Wu Zhonghou."

"The matter of the reward is decided by His Majesty and the Crown Prince, and has nothing to do with the lower officials. Wei Guogong should wait for the new dynasty to enter the palace to thank the new Lord."

"Yes, yes, yes." Xu Huizu laughed, grabbed the wine glass and rushed towards Chen Yunfu, "Come, I respect you."

"Don't dare."

After the two of them clinked glasses and drank, before Chen Yunfu could breathe a sigh of relief, Lan Yu on the right hand gave another tug.

"Can't you let me rest for a while?"

"Ask a business."

Lan Yu lowered her voice and asked with her head buried in her head, "Will the future crown prince be appointed in the enthronement edict?"

"Of course." Chen Yunfu said angrily: "The crown prince is the successor, and he is at the age of the heyday. How can he have no heirs? What you are asking is nonsense."

Sapphire's face suddenly changed from cloudy to sunny.

"No need to change?"

"What are you thinking about?"

"Can you fight for it again?"

Chen Yunfu raised his eyebrows and became dissatisfied: "You treat this as a child's play, and you still fight for it. There is no need to fight for this kind of thing, just be obedient and obedient."

Lan Yu shook her head helplessly, and then said: "I heard that the newly appointed minister of the Ministry of War is the one named Qi De, and he is his lecturer, which is not a good thing for you. "

"So what." Chen Yunfu cast a sidelong glance at Lan Yu, "I'll retire within ten years at the most."

"What the hell? Are you going to be an official?"

Sapphire's tone was raised suddenly, which startled everyone in the room, but when they came back to their senses, they all looked at Chen Yunfu in disbelief.

"What did Liang Guogong say just now, Marquis Wu Zhong, are you going to be an official?"

Chen Yunfu immediately frowned, and gave Lan Yu a dissatisfied look, but there was no need for him to hide it now, so he nodded frankly.

"That's right, but it's not now, it's ten years later, and the official plans to leave the court after ten years and go back to hiding in the mountains and forests."

"That is why ah."

Xu Huizu was the first to express his incomprehension: "Marquis Wu Zhong, ten years from now you will only be in your thirties, why do you suddenly want to retire?"

"I just want to steal half my life's laziness."

Chen Yunfu smiled, but whispered to Xu Huizu about his plan to plan the cabinet.

"So, it can't be done for too long, ten years at most, and the next official must retire."

"Then you don't want to engage in this cabinet, can't you?"

"There is no cabinet, and the lower officials are just the Zuodu censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. There are many things that cannot be done, and there is no reason to do them. There are too many problems that need to be solved, so the lower officials have to do it."

Xu Huizu admired him from the bottom of his heart: "You are here to solve the matter of the chieftain of Yunnan and Guizhou for Guochao, and you don't hesitate to use your own official rank."

"That doesn't matter, what a man does and doesn't do."

Chen Yunfu smiled indifferently, and invited at the same time: "At that time, I hope that Wei Guogong can come forward to take up the position of the first Martial Arts Hall University Bachelor."

"I'm the Commander-in-Chief of the Central Military Commander's Mansion, so I'm going to join the cabinet again, is it suitable?"

"Without Wei Guogong, this cabinet cannot be formed."

Chen Yunfu stopped talking, patted Xu Huizu's forearm, and then picked up the cup.

"Okay, everyone, let's not talk about this, today is a great day, let's chat more happily, come, drink!"

"Hey, let's have a drink together."

The banquet continued, and the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic. In the end, Chen Yunfu, who had the weakest alcohol, took the lead to leave, and Lan Yu got up to see him off.

"Is Mingtai still satisfied?"

"Slightly flawed, not natural enough."

"I did my best."

"Practice more, I will count on you later."

"Is he reliable in this matter?"

Chen Yunfu boarded the carriage, and finally looked back at Lan Yu, who clasped his fists and nodded slowly.
