Seeing someone he shouldn't see, Chen Xi is in a very bad mood. If he had not stayed in Jizhou for a few days to wait for news from Zhang, Chen Xi would have returned to Taishan by now.
Since meeting Zhen Mi, Chen Xi's gloomy expression has been noticed by Zhao Yun and Mi Zhu. Although they have not asked, they are not lacking in gossip mentality. Mi Zhu and Zhao Yun do not believe what Chen Xi said before. Although I don't understand why Chen Xi, who normally doesn't bother to look at Mei Ji, would have such a big reaction to Zhen Mi, but no matter from every aspect, this is a big gossip!
"Military advisor, Mrs. Zhen is here to visit with Zhen Mi." Just when Chen Xi was confused, a sergeant ran over and said to Chen Xi.
"Let them come in." Chen Xi was dressed in white, without any makeup, and leaned lazily on the chair. However, when he heard that Zhang and Zhen Mi were visiting, a hint of complexity flashed in his eyes.
"Military advisor, this is not a suitable place." Most of the sergeants who could follow Chen Xi to Jizhou were Zhao Yun's personal guards and had a certain education. Naturally, they knew that meeting guests in the bedroom was a bit too much, and there were two female guests. .
"They will come." Chen Xi squinted at the bonsai beside him. He vaguely hoped that because of his poor hospitality, Mrs. Zhang would take Zhen Mi away and never appear in front of him again.
"Here!" The sergeant clasped his fists. Since Chen Xi had already made up his mind, there was nothing more to say.
"Guardian of Taishan County, Military Advisor Liu Xuande, Chen Zichuan, you are so powerful!" Zhang's people haven't arrived yet, but the voice has come over. Zhang, who has now stabilized the situation in Jizhou, is very different from the previous few days. Don't.
"Sit down." Chen Xi didn't even raise his head.
Mrs. Zhang was so angry with Chen Xi's attitude that she almost wanted to turn away. As the actual person in power of the Zhen family, when had she ever been treated like this?
Concealing the anger in her heart, Ms. Zhang chuckled and said, "I heard people say that Chen Zichuan is full of clever tricks and all his predictions are right. He is the best at preparing for a rainy day. I don't know why he decided to leave this time."
"Aren't you here?" Chen Xi sat up straight, his eyes swept over Zhang, and finally landed on Zhen Mi.
"I may not think what you think when I come." Zhang said coldly.
"It's just that the Yuan family said they want to give you a hand. If I don't let go, you won't be able to choose that path in that situation where there is no choice. Your Zhen family has not yet reached the point of being at the end of its rope. As a native of Jizhou, The family chose the Yuan family just to determine the world." Chen Xi raised his head and said with cold eyes, "It's just a false way to destroy Guo. If it is not a last resort, will your Zhen family rely on the Yuan family? Who can be the support of your Zhen family? It¡¯s just a annexed character!¡±
"Don't you also want to annex the Zhen family?" Zhang said with a sneer.
"There is no difference in essence. You can choose the Yuan family." Chen Xi's eyes did not change. He could already see some familiar expressions on Zhen Mi's face.
"You!" Mrs. Zhang was almost furious at Chen Xi, "Aren't you afraid that I will switch to the Yuan family?"
"" Chen Xi did not speak, but silently raised his head and glanced at Zhang, and then turned to look at Zhen Mi. However, the contempt in his eyes at that moment deeply hurt Zhang.
"What does Liu Xuande want?" Mrs. Zhang silently suppressed the coldness on her face and looked at Chen Xi with the majesty of the head of the Zhen family.
Chen Xi withdrew his eyes from Zhen Mi and focused on Zhang, "We want to do a business with Madam. We don't want the Yuan family to completely control Jizhou so quickly, so we need a spokesperson, and the Zhen family is suitable."
Mrs. Zhang looked at Chen Xi without saying anything. She didn't believe this reason.
"Don't underestimate Yuan Benchu. The combined Hebei families are no match for Yuan Shao. Where are Xu Ziyuan, Shen Zhengnan, and Feng Yuantu now? The frontline defense in the north mainly relies on Tian Yuanhao, and in the south relies on Ju Gong and , What about those confidants who took Jizhou in the first place? "Although Chen Xi is no longer thinking about this aspect, he has made a lot of preparations before.
"Jizhou belongs to Yuan Benchu. It's only a matter of time. No matter how hard the Jizhou family struggles, they can't get rid of this fate." Chen Xi said unhurriedly, "I just hope that you families can work harder and die slower. As for I don¡¯t have any hope for others, and my actions this time are just a reminder to you that there are too many ways to defeat you in this world.¡±
"Has the power of the Yuan family really reached that level?" Although Zhang did not completely believe what Chen Xi said, she still had to have doubts. It was the instinct of every family member to plan for the family.
"It's not the Yuan family, it's Yuan Benchu. In troubled times, the strength of an aristocratic family is sometimes inferior to that of an individual. The Yang family of the fifth generation and the three princes was played by Dong Zhuo alone and was in a state of embarrassment. The world no longer abides by the rules of the aristocratic family."In this era, for example, when I attacked Jizhou with troops, which was not nice to say, at that time I was editing a book for Yuan Shao and wanted to take the lives of more than a hundred people in the Zhen family, Yuan Shao also had to think about it. "Chen Xi said calmly what made Zhang's hair stand on end.
After pondering for a long time, Mrs. Zhang finally made up her mind. Indeed, this is no longer the rule-based era before. "Okay, I promise you, for the sake of our Zhen family and the entire Jizhou family!" Mrs. Zhang was talking about the Jizhou family! There was obvious unwillingness in his eyes, and the Zhen family still had to rely on the strength of the entire Jizhou family.
"Madam is indeed a hero among women." Chen Xi congratulated absentmindedly.
"Hmph, there's no need to be so perfunctory!" Zhang said dissatisfied, "Let's talk about the alliance between my Zhen family and your Taishan family."
Speaking of this, Mrs. Zhang's eyes flashed with brilliance. In the past ten days, she had spared no effort in investigating and finally got the information she wanted. Whether it was white paper, white porcelain or liquor, Mrs. Zhang was very rich in it. interest.
"Alliance?" Chen Xi glanced sideways at Zhang, and then silently turned his head to continue admiring Zhen Mi. After looking at Zhen Mi for a long time, Zhen Mi already had a little bit of a similar charm.
"My Zhen family has the best wealthy businessmen in the world." Mrs. Zhang said this with a touch of pride. Businessmen are indeed looked down upon, but when the money reaches a certain level, all opinions need to be changed.
"Zizhong expressed dissatisfaction." Chen Xi stared at Zhen Mi, who was gradually becoming shy because of his gaze, and said without raising his head.
Zhang was choked to death and the Mi family's wealth must be re-evaluated. This is the feeling of all aristocratic families. This three-generation wealthy businessman has caught the eyes of everyone who aspires to the world after fighting with the Zhen family. Enemy country is no joke.
"You don't want my Zhen family to become a vassal of Mount Tai like the Mi family." Mrs. Zhang said angrily.
"I just don't think it's necessary. The Zhen family can just build a branch in Mount Tai." When Chen Xi said this, he was completely free of Zhen Mi's influence, and his tone was unquestionable.
"" Mrs. Zhang looked at Chen Xi, then looked down at her daughter, "Okay, it's settled!"
