Rebirth of Wendong Xiaoji

After Zhou Yanhuan and his son left, Chen Wendong still worked in the dark pavilion. Without the daily chatter of the father and son, his life was much easier.

However, after Zhou Yanhuan returned to Ganghe Continent, he made many new arrangements.As soon as he returned to Ganges Island, he carried out a big cleansing in the palace, and all the servants who had close ties with the foreign ministers were pulled out.

The steward of the palace led the guards and arrested people one by one.When they were arrested, Zhou Zhengze's brother and sister were in class, and they didn't know what happened until they returned to their yard.

As the owners of the yard, of course they wanted to ask what was going on, so the three brothers and sisters stayed in the house for a while, and then met again in front of the palace.

When they arrived, everyone who should be arrested had already been arrested, squatting on the ground one by one, guarded by a group of guards.These people were either terrified, crying, or looking around, but none of them dared to move.

The three brothers and sisters took a closer look, and found that among the arrested people were people from various yards, and even a few servants who served Zhou Yanhuan, but the most of them were people from Zhou Zhengbo's yard, including one of his personal servants. fellow.

"Master, please help me, I don't want to leave you! I beg you!" As soon as Zhou Zhengbo appeared, the servant shouted.Seeing Zhou Zhengbo looking at him, the servant struggled to reopen the guards' siege, ran over and hugged Zhou Zhengbo's thigh.

"Master, master, save this slave! This slave is absolutely loyal to you, you can't just watch this slave be taken away!" The servant begged with tears and snot in his nose.

Two guards were about to come over to pull people away, but Zhou Zhengbo stopped them with a wave of his hand.

"What's going on here?" Zhou Zhengze asked.

The leading guard stepped forward to salute and reported: "I would like to report to the eldest prince, we are ordered by the king to search for criminals in the palace, and now we are taking these people out of the palace for interrogation."

Zhou Zhengze stopped asking after hearing what he said, and Zhou Yixin kept silent.

Zhou Zhengbo couldn't just watch the servant being taken away like this. After all, he was his personal servant, so he had to ask anyway.Besides, this boy has been with him for five or six years, and the relationship between master and servant has always been good, and he can't ignore his feelings and reason.

"May I ask why they were arrested?"

"The second prince forgives the crime, but I am only ordered to arrest people. I don't know the specific reason."

Zhou Zhengbo wanted to ask again, but Zhou Zhengze quickly squeezed his lower back.

"Go and do your work, Zhengbo, Yixin, let's go." Saying this, Zhou Zhengze dragged Zhou Zhengbo away, leaving only the servant crying on the spot.

"Brother, why did you stop me? That's my valet, even if you want to arrest someone, you have to give me a reason?" Zhou Zhengbo was furious, his face stinky.

"Zhengbo, calm down. Didn't you hear what the guards said? They are following the order of the father to arrest criminals. Are you going to openly disobey the order of the father?

Father Wang has always been wise, he will not arrest people casually, even if you want to ask the truth, can't you just ask Father Wang directly?Why bother to question father's decision in front of so many people? "

Zhou Yixin also echoed, "Second Brother, it's true that you were reckless this time."

Zhou Zhengbo was still furious, "Then I will ask my father now!"

Zhou Zhengze grabbed him, nodded his head, and said bitterly, "Are you so impatient? My father is discussing matters now. What's the matter with you running over angrily like this? Wait for my father." It’s not too late to ask after the discussion.”

"Second brother, just listen to elder brother. It's not just the people in your yard who were arrested. Didn't someone in the father's yard also be taken away? When the father comes back, let's just ask if the father is not right. They will arrest people for no reason."

Zhou Zhengbo didn't bother anymore. Although he was young, he was very affectionate. Although the one who was taken away was just a servant, in his heart, he was his playmate and friend.

When Zhou Yanhuan came back, he looked at the eldest son and daughter who looked normal, and then looked at the second son who was like frost beating eggplants, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.The eldest son and daughter are so smart, why is the second son so stupid?

When Zhou Zhengbo saw Zhou Yanhuan, he couldn't help asking: "Father, why did you take Changle away?" Changle was the personal servant.

Now not only Zhou Yanhuan sighed, even Zhou Zhengze and Zhou Yixin wanted to roll their eyes, this temper really can't be saved.

"Of course I have my reasons for arresting people. After two days, you will find out." Zhou Yanhuan glanced at his second son, and said with a straight face.

After all, Zhou Zhengbo was still afraid of his father. Seeing Zhou Yanhuan's serious face, he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Two days later, Zhou Yanhuan put the interrogation materials in front of the three of them one by one.

Zhou Zhengze just raised his eyebrows after reading it, Zhou Yixin didn't say anything, but Zhou Zhengbo's face became more and more ugly.

The information in his hand listed in detail how the servant colluded with foreign officials, how he leaked his whereabouts, how he lured him to play, and who he made friends with.One after another, he completely betrayed his master.And it wasn't just this boy, the other people who were taken away were also in contact with foreign ministers.

"After reading it, is there anything you want to say?" Zhou Yanhuan looked at the three brothers and sisters, and finally set his sights on Zhou Zhengbo.

"Father, I... I was wrong." Zhou Zhengbo lowered his head and said in a voice like a mosquito.The child was obviously hit hard, and he lost all energy.

"Do you know what's wrong?" Zhou Yanhuan asked again.

"I shouldn't let him be a servant, and I shouldn't trust him." Zhou Zhengbo replied tearfully while holding a stack of documents.

"You still don't realize what's wrong. Most of these servants were assigned to you by me, but the servants were chosen by you yourself. They colluded with outsiders and betrayed the master's information. On the one hand, you are not strict. You are also the people I assigned, why are there so few people arrested in Zhengze and Yixin's yard, and so many in your yard? You, the master, have an inescapable responsibility. "

Zhou Yanhuan didn't have the nerve to say that although Zhou Zhengze and Zhou Yixin were also caught in the yard, they probably knew it already, otherwise they wouldn't have reacted like this.Moreover, the people who were arrested were all cleaning the yard outside, so they had no access to important information at all.

After pulling the slumped second son and rubbing it a few times, Zhou Yanhuan said helplessly: "Son, don't patronize and play in the future, learn more from your elder brother, and you can't always be so muddleheaded."

Regarding Zhou Yanhuan's move, many ministers had different ideas.But most people think that Zhou Yanhuan is warning some people not to stretch their hands too far, and it goes without saying who he is targeting.Anyone who puts eyeliner in the palace has their tails tucked up and become cautious.

After this incident, Zhou Yanhuan added bodyguards to all three children, and assigned two masters of hidden guards to each of them. This series of actions is really intriguing.

Zhou Yanhuan ignored the outside speculation, and still handled government affairs as usual, but the number of secret meetings became more frequent.In addition, whenever Zhou Yanhuan handles government affairs alone, he will bring Zhou Zhengze by his side and guide him carefully.Sometimes some affairs are assigned to him and let him handle it by himself.

Many people don't know that during this period of time, several groups of people entered the Nanfan King's territory in batches.On the front line, Wang Yanzhi also allowed Zhou Yanhao to take back two cities because of a 'negligence'. The northeast of these two cities was Yang Baiquan's territory, and the south was Nanfanwang's territory.

In order to show his sincerity, Zhou Yanhao handed over the city to Yang Baiquan on the second day after recapturing the city.But before Yang Boquan's men came to take over, the city was seized by the Nanfan King.

Because of the special terrain, these two cities are very important to Yang Baiquan and Nanfan Wang, but to Zhou Yanhuan, they are a bit tasteless.

After that, Yang Boquan led his troops to attack the city. After four battles, Yang Boquan finally took a city.After this battle, the cooperation plan between the two parties was temporarily suspended, and Zhou Yanhuan's intention to destroy their alliance was also achieved.

After another half a year, a large-scale civilian massacre occurred in the territory of the Nanfan King, and the Nanfan King was killed by the refugees in the massacre.Zhou Yanhuan immediately occupied the territory in the north of the Nanfanwang, blocking Yang Baiquan and Zhou Yanhao's army going south.

Zhou Yanhao and Yang Baiquan didn't expect Zhou Yanhuan to act so quickly, let alone Nanfan Wang being so vulnerable. By the time they acted, it was already too late.The city in the north has already fallen into Zhou Yanhuan's pocket, and his army has already driven southward.

After another half a year, the forces of the Southern Anti-kings completely disintegrated, and Zhou Yanhuan occupied the east and west.The land on three sides to the south formed a tendency to encircle Yang Baiquan and Zhou Yanhao.

Today, everyone can see the general trend of Zhou Yanhuan, and Yang Baiquan and Zhou Yanhao have also formed an alliance.

Chen Wendong was naturally clear about the news ahead, and he was also very surprised by Zhou Yanhuan's achievements.Zhou Yanhuan's ability to defeat the Nanfan King in such a short period of time is definitely commendable.

For more than a year, he has also worked very hard. As one of the cash cows of the Dark Pavilion, he has to think about making money all the time. After living two lifetimes, he has never been so crazy about money.

Zhou Yanhuanping lost the Southern Anti-king, and Chen Wendong could finally rest for a while.

During dinner that day, Yaya suddenly said: "Daddy, I want a girl, can you find me a lady?"

Chen Wendong was very surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Why did Yaya think of imitating female celebrities?" It wasn't that he didn't believe in girls, it was because Yaya was too evasive, and she didn't look like a child who imitated female celebrities at all.

"Yixin is always sick, I want to make him a cloak." Yaya said without thinking.

"Okay, I'll find it for you in the next two days." Chen Wendong agreed without hesitation.He didn't mention it before because he didn't want to suppress the child's nature. Now that his daughter brought it up, of course he has to support it.

After dinner, Chen Wendong asked someone to inquire.

Two days later, Mr. Wan, magistrate of Yicheng County, came to visit and was warmly received by Chen Wendong.

After exchanging pleasantries, Chen Wendong asked, "I don't know what Master Wan is doing?"

County Magistrate Wan coughed lightly, turned his shrewd little eyes, leaned forward and asked, "I heard that General Chen is looking for a lady?"

Chen Wendong nodded, "Exactly, I want to find a female gentleman to teach my little girl red needlework, and it is best to teach some etiquette rules. Why did Lord Wan mention this? Could someone recommend it?"

County magistrate Wan chuckled, his eyes narrowed, "I really have a candidate."

"Oh? I don't know where this person came from, how knowledgeable is he?" Since he was looking for a female husband, Chen Wendong of course had to ask carefully.

"Speaking of which, this is none other than my sister-in-law."

When Chen Wendong heard this, he felt a little unwilling. He was looking for a female husband, not a Buddha to come to his house to make offerings.

County Magistrate Wan continued: "To tell you the truth, my younger sister is really hard-pressed. She lost her husband after a year of marriage, and has no children under her knees, so she is not treated by her husband's family. I live as a female husband. A few days ago, the family he taught moved to Ganges Island, and you happened to be looking for a female husband here, so I came here on her behalf to ask if the general is interested."

Chen Wendong wanted to refuse at first, but he heard that this is a female husband who has been working all year round, so he didn't say anything dead.

"Lord Wan, please worry. If your sister is interested, you can come and meet each other. One is to find a husband for the little girl. Naturally, the teacher and apprentice must have the same temperament. The other is to see how talented the female husband is."

"Naturally, naturally, this is as it should be." County Magistrate Wan agreed.

The matter passed like this, but within two days, County Magistrate Wan came to the door with a beautiful young woman.

After the two sides met, Chen Wendong called Yaya over.

When the young woman saw Yaya, she immediately praised her with a gentle and loving face, but she glanced at Chen Wendong from time to time.

Chen Wendong saw that she behaved frivolously, and she didn't look like a gentleman when she talked, so his face turned a little ugly.

The pimp was brought to him, this county magistrate Wan really had a good idea!

Seeing Yaya getting a little impatient, Chen Wendong didn't want to waste any more.

"Master Wan, I think the temperament of my daughter and Lingmei are not compatible, so let's forget about it."

County Magistrate Wan did not give up, "General, don't rush to make a decision, why don't you let them get along?"

Chen Wendong waved his hand, "The little girl is upright, but she has her own ideas. Even my father can't make up her mind for her."

"What does the general think of Sister She?" Seeing that the devious tactics would not work, County Magistrate Wan actually asked directly.

Chen Wendong's face suddenly darkened, "Lord Wan, I respect your sister's noble character, how can you say such a thing? Don't bring up this matter again, I have other things to do, so I won't send Master Wan off."

County magistrate Wan felt ashamed, and left the Chen family with his sister in despair.
