Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

After practicing a set of boxing techniques, Chai Lingwu just sat under the wintersweet tree in a daze.

As it was getting late, Old Wu, the concierge, closed the gate, walked back to take a look, and hurried into the house, took a leather cloak, and put it on Chai Lingwu.

"My good young master, are you not afraid of catching a cold?"

Chai Lingwu tugged at the leather cloak, then waved his hand, signaling Old Wu to sit down and talk to him.

"Old Wu, how many children are there in your family?"

Old Wu was taken aback, but still replied: "The youngest family has three children, the eldest is ten years old now, and the remaining two are twins, who are six years old this year!"

When mentioning the child, a smile appeared on Old Wu's face unconsciously.

He is a veteran in the Liu family. When Liu Yongnian was alive, he was already the concierge of the Liu family.

This has been done for nearly 20 years!

Even if he is not a native of Liujiazhuangzi, he has long been accepted by the villagers in Zhuangzi.

"The little one is still thinking, when the eldest child reaches the age of 12, he will go to the young master to ask for a favor. It is the best thing to enter the academy. If it is not possible, he will go to Mr. Di and study in the government school of our county for a few years. , it won’t be too late to take the academy exam in the future!”

His concierge's gold content is not low, and he usually calls brothers and sisters with the magistrates in Jingyang County.

Even if Di Zhixun came, he would still call him Brother Wu.

Chai Lingwu nodded, and asked, "If the eldest son of your family is vying for the property and refuses to distribute it to the other two children, what should you do?"

Old Wu said with a smile: "Master Chai was joking, how much property does a small one have? In our village, you can earn a lot of money if you just find some work. In a small family, several children are up to date, and they look down on them." This little silver!"

Hearing what he said, it was like a thorn in Chai Lingwu's heart, piercing him with pain.

The Chai family is not considered wealthy, but it is also a first-class wealthy family.

It's nothing.

The only thing is the title of the duke

"Brother, if you don't show any hostility towards me, what if I give you the title?"

Chai Lingwu murmured.

"what did you say?"

Old Wu didn't hear what he said clearly.

Chai Lingwu forced a smile, "It's okay, you should be busy!"

After speaking, he stood up and walked to his room.

That night, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Until the next morning, he unconsciously closed his eyes.

From this sleep, I fell asleep until the next afternoon.

When I woke up, I realized that my old man was sitting on the head of the bed!

Chai Lingwu rubbed his eyes and asked in surprise, "Father?"

With Chai Lingwu's relationship, Chai Shao didn't see him in Liu's house, and he was almost no different from Cheng Yaojin.

However, it was the first time for him to come to Chai Lingwu's room in Liu's house.

Looking at the thick stack of ledgers and various books, Chai Shao said with a smile: "I sent you to the Liu family for my father, it was really the most correct decision in my life!"

Chai Lingwu hurriedly got up and put on his clothes, and hurried outside to wash his face and mouth, and then came back with a cup of freshly brewed tea.

"Dad, drink tea"

Chai Lingwu held the tureen and didn't drink for a long time. He stared at Chai Lingwu in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

Chapter 407 You Are A Blessed Child, Please Cherish It

"Liu Bai wrote to Wei's father, saying that he will come back next month. By then, it's time for him to enter Chang'an. You and Baling's marriage can't be delayed any longer!"

Chai Lingwu laughed along, "Father, the baby is still young, and the doctor Li at home said that getting married too early is not a good thing."

If Chai Lingwu said these words at any other time, Chai Shao would definitely blow his beard and stare.

But today, instead of getting angry, he remained silent for a long time.

"As a father, I also married your mother at the age of 15, but if you don't agree, it's okay to put this matter on hold for another year or two."

He took a sip of tea, and seemed to have something to say to Chai Lingwu, but he seemed embarrassed to open his mouth.

Chai Lingwu lowered his head, sat opposite Chai Shao, and said quietly: "I have no objection to giving the title to eldest brother."

Chai Shao looked at his son with distressed eyes.

He regretted that he did not send his eldest son to the Liu family.

For one thing, the two brothers spent more time together and saw more of the world in the Liu family, perhaps the eldest son would not place such a high value on the title.

Secondly, Chai Lingwu's growth has always been in his eyes, and he always brags to his colleagues on weekdays.

Liu Yexuan!

It was a place where even the emperor would always go to sit, and the bigwigs in the court almost went there every day!

As time goes by, I love Chai Lingwu even more.

Such a relationship is much more precious than any official position or title!

Because of this, he was extraordinarily hesitant about the matter of the title.

Judging from the current situation, the eldest son, Chai Zhewei, is far inferior to the second son.

Especially, there is Liu Bai's photo!

In the future, the situation in the court will only become more complicated day by day. Once Liu Bai enters the court, he will definitely become the leader of their circle.

If the title is given to the eldest son, will it cause Liu Bai's dissatisfaction?

But what about Chai Shao?

Li Er's throne did not come from the right path, and it was for this reason that he dared not pass on the title to Chai Lingwu.

It would be fine to switch to other nobles, but unfortunately, Chai Lingwu and Chai Zhewei's biological mother is Li Er's most valued and most guilty sister.

Chai Shao sighed, "You are a sensible child."

Chai Lingwu forced a smile, "Father, tell me something, don't be angry!"

"you say!"

Chai Lingwu took the empty gaiwan and put it on the table.

"If the elder brother didn't show hostility, the boy would not want to compete with him at all. There is nothing rare about this title."

Chai Shao nodded.

Chai Lingwu is indeed qualified to say so.

Following Liu Bai's side, the title is like a chicken rib.

Just like the case of Han Tong, isn't the official position of the Minister of the Ministry of Industry just a matter of one sentence?

As long as Chai Lingwu reaches his age, the title will be within his grasp.

Chai Lingwu took a deep breath, hesitated for a while, and then said: "But now, elder brother has already attacked me, and even in Chang'an City, there are already rumors that I want to kill elder brother. I can bear it, but elder brother Liu Can you bear it?"

Chai Shao said helplessly: "My father has already reprimanded your eldest brother, this kind of thing will never happen again in the future"

Chai Lingwu shook his head.

"It's not that simple, the boy understands the character of big brother far better than you."

As he spoke, he seemed to have made up his mind.

"20 days! In another 20 days, Big Brother Liu will be back. If within these 20 days, Big Brother won't do anything outrageous, I will bear it, but if it is within these 20 days"

He clenched his fists and said, "Instead of embarrassing brother Liu, it's better to let the boy come and teach him a lesson he will never forget!"

After finishing speaking, he secretly glanced at Chai Shao's face.

Seeing that Chai Shao didn't show any abnormal expressions, he felt a little calmer in his heart.

What he is most afraid of is that his father is too partial and stops him.

As one of the people who followed Liu Bai the longest, he knew Liu Bai's temperament too well.

In Liu Bai's eyes, there is a clear line between good and bad relationships.

Or rather, a circle.

In the innermost part of this circle are the members of the Liu family, as well as Li Chengqian, Cheng Chumo and him.

Outside, there are Cheng Yaojin and others.

My father, I'm afraid I have to go a little further.

As for my eldest brother, he doesn't even count as the outermost circle.

If Liu Bai knew that he had been wronged, let alone Chai Zhewei, even his own father would be affected.

Compared to the Liu family, the former Chai family may be regarded as a colossus.

But compared to now, it's really not enough.

Chai Lingwu had no doubts that one word from Liu Bai was enough to put his elder brother in a state of eternal doom!

Instead of this, it's better to do it yourself, at least, it can make your big brother not too miserable

Chai Shao patted Chai Lingwu on the shoulder and said, "You are a blessed child, so cherish it."

After speaking, he stood up, stopped Chai Lingwu who was about to send him off, and walked out alone.

Chang'an City, Academy!

A heated discussion was going on in a room named 'Zhizhi' Editor's Office'.

Editor-in-chief Ma Zhou specially invited honorary editor-in-chief Yu Shinan and several consultants to attend.

Li Yanshou, as the No. 1 historian in the current dynasty and the only disciple of Yan Shigu, has a serious xenophobia towards new things.

"We founded "Zhizhi" to open up the wisdom of the people and let the people know the research results of our academy!"

"Nowadays, tea was first proposed by Mr. Liu. Before that, no one could have a strict conclusion on tea! Publishing this article in Zhizhi is not in line with our original intention!"

Sitting opposite the long table was Shangguanyi.

He was more excited than Li Yanshou, his fat face flushed.

"History is indeed a great science, but why do you deny new things? Couldn't tea become a science in the future?"

"Besides, Mr. Liu's knowledge is not better than yours?"

Li Yanshou slammed the table, "The problem is, this article was not written by Mr. Liu. If he wrote it, how could I prevent it from being published on Zhizhi?"

The two stared at each other like bulls in heat. If Yu Shinan and the others weren't present, they might have started a fight.

Yu Shinan looked down, this article called 'Tea Classic', searched for a long time, but could not find the signature.

Someone should have voted anonymously.

Unexpectedly, the third issue of "Zhizhi" will attract such a big controversy.

Both of them have a point.

Ever since Liu Yexuan came into being, Sencha has been completely given up.

As Shangguanyi said, in the future, 'tea' may not become a subject of knowledge.

But Li Yanshou was right.

The new way of drinking tea, but it has been popular for less than a year, if Liu Bai wrote it, it would be fine, because he has enough understanding.

In the final analysis, it still lies in the fact that none of the members of the editorial board of Zhizhi fully understands tea.

Whether what is said in this article is true or false, whether it is good or bad, there is no suitable criterion for judging it.

If it is published and someone finds it wrong, then the editorial board of Zhizhi will lose face
