Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 294 Jiang Yi visits Chen
When the news of Chen Zhi's acceptance of the order was spread out the next day, everyone who heard about it was amazed, but couldn't help but sigh. Many of them saw the significance of this matter. Vision.

"Otherwise, the Chen family is about to rise! First, Mr. Chen has served as the servant, and there may be no possibility of further advancement in the future. In addition, Chen Zhi, the dreaming young master, is valued by the emperor. This senior, a The new generation is enough to support the Chen family for 40 years!"

"General of the Northern Expedition, didn't that title belong to the Lu family when Xuanwu launched the Northern Expedition? It's really extraordinary to have the same title as such a person."

"There is also Liu Yuan, the leader of the thieves. He was so treacherous and hateful. Now that he is finally dead, I am really happy. I don't know how many victories the officers and soldiers of the Northern Expedition have achieved. If they can annihilate the Huns in one battle and drive them back to the desert, it will be a good story. ."

……

There were endless discussions in the streets. In addition to marveling at Chen Zhi's official position and title, they were also amazed at Liu Yuan's death. What followed closely was the expectations and analysis of the war on the northern front.

In contrast, the Xingtan forum seems to have been forgotten, and few people mention it. If Chen Zhi hadn't spread the word, saying that he had some chess records of Mr. Wangyou Zuna, he wanted to stay in the Xingtan forum. On the way, people can enlighten, I am afraid that no one will talk about it.

"In this situation, Chen Zhi's limelight has become too overwhelming, which is overwhelming others. This is not a good thing."

Listening to the discussion of the people in the tavern, Sun Min, Cao Qing, Xun Zhe, Wei Ou and others were eating wine and food at the same table and discussing the current affairs.

The person who spoke was Xun Zhe.

As he spoke, he shook his head and said: "However, I think this is also a result of the current situation. He, Chen Zhi, never thought that he would encounter such things, so that even the death of the Lord of the Huns could be related to him. "

"That's the problem." Sun Min, who usually kept a smile on his face, frowned at this time. "From this point of view, the news we received before is probably true. The war on the northern front is indeed unfavorable. ”

Cao Qing understood immediately, and said, "Brother, what do you mean to say, because the northern front is unfavorable and there is no other commendable record, the imperial court had to reward Chen Zhi as a last resort, and took out the identity of the leader of the Huns?" Are you making a fuss about your death?"

"That's right," Sun Min nodded, and then waved his hand, "But don't discuss this matter casually for the time being, just keep it in your mind. The top priority right now is Chen Zhi's matter. He has to do it. Due to my official position, I should take some time to pay him a visit."

Everyone nodded in agreement, but as they were talking, Xun Zhe suddenly thought of something and said, "You said that the Master has been staying behind closed doors for the past two days, does it have something to do with Chen Zhi?"

Cao Qing said with a smile: "I know about this, although the master didn't say it directly, but from the few things he asked before closing the door, I can see that he is preparing and wants to wait until the Xingtan discussion At that time, discuss with Chen Zhi and compete with each other."

After Xun Zhe heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid this is not easy. You have also read the "Six Kingdoms". Not to mention the style and writing style, just the intention in it will make some shortcomings. The analysis is extremely clear, and it is another political commentary. When it spreads, it will also establish Chen Zhi's reputation in this area. The master's discussion with him cannot be limited to Buddhism."

He sighed, and Cao Qing added: "I don't think so. After the royal dinner, Chen Zhi's reputation soared unprecedentedly. Even the Xingtan forum could not compare with his reputation. Let the people gathered here in Lu Many celebrities in the county have made great efforts to compete with him in discussing Taoism. The master is not the only one. Besides, the master and Chen Zhi already have a grudge, so their thoughts are definitely more serious. "

Sun Min also thought of someone and looked towards Wei Ou: "Brother Wei, you were quite close to General Mi Jun before. After the dinner at the palace, almost everyone knew about the conflict between this man and Chen Zhi. Now Chen Zhi With the title of General of the Northern Conquest, Zhi may not be as powerful as Mi Jun's army, but his status is much higher. If he wants to move Chen Zhi again, he has to weigh it, even if he doesn't consider Chen Taipu's reputation. , we also have to worry about the military rules, I don’t know what it means now, if you tell me, we might be able to sell Chen Zhi a favor, and it will not be easy to get his favor again in the future."

These words made Wei Ou feel a little embarrassed.

Before, in order to cling to the Mi Army, he actually alienated himself from Sun Min and others, which was considered a taboo matter. But later he found that the general did not seem like a person who could achieve things, so he resumed his relationship with Sun Mi and others. When people get close to me, and now when someone mentions me, I feel a little embarrassed on my face, but after so many years of hard work in the interpersonal field, I still have a good face.

He quickly revealed: "General Mi has something to do and he won't tell me. However, there are some friends of mine under his account who told me a little bit, saying that this general no longer plans to look for Chen Zhi." Trouble, he will return soon, but before leaving, he also read a copy of General Zhu Shou, citing the reason for leaving his post without permission."

"He is really a master who is unwilling to suffer losses." Sun Min laughed when he heard this, "The Mi family behind him is quite powerful, at least a little bigger than the Chen family, so when he started taking action before, he would not worry about Mrs. Chen, but now things have changed. , the situation is different, if General Mi continues to insist on his own way, the family behind him will come forward to stop him."

Several people were chatting when they suddenly heard a burst of noise outside the tavern, followed by a burst of surprise.

"What?" Sun Min was confused for a moment and asked a servant to go over to inquire about the information, and he soon got the reward.

"Jiang Yi is going to the Wang family's residence to visit Chen Zhi?"

Everyone's expressions were a little surprised, and Cao Qing couldn't help but said: "No wonder others are surprised. When I heard this, I was a little surprised. The conflict between Young Master Yiyan and Young Master Ruimeng has caused half of Qingzhou to I already know that the two of them never had a face-to-face conversation during the dinner at the palace."

Cao Qing guessed: "Could it be that you are not convinced, so you want to go over and discuss the truth?"

Sun Min shook his head and said, "I don't think so. Maybe he got some news that I don't know about." As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd started making noise again. But this time, the news was directly related to Chen Zhi. What is surprising is that Chen Zhi will not attend the Xingtan Forum, but will go directly to Luoyang. After all, he has just received the order and there is still a lot of work to be handed over.

Such a decision will undoubtedly disappoint many people.

"At first, I wanted to listen to Mr. Meng's great opinion on the apricot forum, but I didn't expect that others would leave."

"It's a pity, it's a pity. Now that he's gone, this Xingtan forum will be a little less exciting."

"I was originally looking forward to Mr. Chen leaving another piece of calligraphy and writing an article on Xingtan Forum. But now I no longer have this opportunity."

"I think so too. Do you know that the original "Six Kingdoms" has been collected by the King of Lu now. I heard that it will be mounted and hung in the study in a few days. It’s the calligraphy of today that everyone can enjoy.”

"I also heard that he and Mr. Xu had some conflicts over the calligraphy. But both parties were concerned about their identity and face, so they didn't argue. But it is said that the scene at that time was really embarrassing."

……

Everyone started talking about the new news, but no one thought that Chen Zhi was afraid of not attending the Xingtan forum, or that he wanted to avoid the limelight for a while.

"Chen Zhi's "On the Six Kingdoms", judging from the circumstances before and after, is really just a temporary writing. Even if he has prepared in the past, it can be seen that he is capable of writing such a level on the spot. Such ability , if he doesn’t go to the Xingtan Forum, no one will think he’s retreating.”

Listening to the discussions of the people around him, Xunzhe had already gotten a taste of it.

Sun Min also nodded and said, "That's right. Didn't you just mention that there are many celebrities who are trying their best to compete with him. In this case, Chen Zhi is neither a winner nor a loser."

Cao Qing also understood the reason, nodded and said: "Win, with his current reputation, it doesn't make much sense to go further. It is better to improve within this range. On the contrary, it will make many celebrities more unhappy and offend others for nothing. But if If you fail, your own reputation will be damaged, and the reputation you just gained will become a stepping stone for others."

"Yes, so you see, how right is it for him to leave?" Sun Min smiled, stroking his hands, "Moreover, the article at the dinner was even published on the Xingtan Forum, and who else can compare with it?" Come on? In this case, why should he limit himself to the land of Xingtan? "

Xun Zhe also nodded in agreement, and then said: "But Jiang Yi went over at this time, and I don't know what he was going to do."

Sun Min smiled and said: "No matter what he is going to do, we must seize the time to visit the dream master, otherwise we will have no chance."

At this moment, Jiang Yi, who was being talked about by several people, also came to the outside of the palace under different gazes. His servant Jiang Hu knocked on the door and then informed the visitor of his identity.

Then Chen Zhi personally welcomed him out to show his respect.

Looking at Chen Zhi walking towards him, Jiang Yi said expressionlessly: "You and I met again. I didn't expect it to be like this, let alone that you would treat me so politely."

Chen Zhi smiled and said, "Brother Jiang is here. He must have something to teach me. Why don't you neglect me? Please come in!" After that, he took the lead.

Jiang Yi took a deep look at Chen Zhi and walked in.

The crowd of onlookers stayed around. Although they didn't see the tension between the two, they always felt that the matter would not be so simple, and they were waiting to see the final outcome.

In the house, Chen Zhi and Jiang Yi sat down separately, and a maid and servant from the Wang family wanted to offer tea, melons and fruits, but Jiang Yi waved his hand to stop them, and heard him say: "There is no need for these things, I am just here." Say a word and I will leave.”

"This..." Wang Leng was also on the spot and wanted to dissuade him, but Chen Zhi smiled and said, "Brother Jiang, it's okay to say it."

Jiang Yi didn't hesitate, nodded and said: "I heard that you are not participating in the Xingtan forum anymore? Are you going directly to Luoyang?"
