    Chen Xi basically would not treat those who really treated him well, but Butler Chen touched the stars on the chessboard and felt extremely emotional. Although he hoped that Chen Xi could make the Chen family rise, he never thought that one day Chen Xi would really leave.  to this height.

    After one game, more than half an hour had passed. Chen Xi's chess, calligraphy and painting skills could not be said to be very good, but they were not too bad either. However, they still lost to Butler Chen. Chen Xi's father could give the chessboard to Butler Chen. If the opponent did not  A good chess skill is wasted on this thing.

    "Sure enough, he is no match for Uncle Chen." Chen Xi smiled and put away the chess pieces as before. He was not a good chess player, and he didn't have that much time to spend on such things. At best, he was just adjusting.

    "The head of the family just doesn't care about the chess game." Butler Chen said with a sigh. He also knew that Chen Xi's mind was not on this aspect. After chatting about the past, Chen Xi was sent away.

    "Huh, is this the head of the family?" After Chen Xi left, the cautious and respectful child who had been hiding behind Butler Chen breathed a long sigh of relief.

    "You're such an unlucky guy." Butler Chen stroked his beard and said with a pity on his face, "Originally I wanted you to show your face in front of the head of the house, because you're timid."

    The child pouted, "I couldn't help but feel a little reserved when the head of the family came over. Really, and he's so powerful, so it's strange that I'm not afraid."

    After all, he is a grandfather and grandson. The child is not afraid of Butler Chen at all. On the contrary, he can explain it with reason.

    "If you could behave the same way before, I wouldn't worry about it." Butler Chen stretched out his hand to grab his grandson.

    As Butler Chen said, if his grandson could be as confident as he is now and get into Chen Xi's face, Butler Chen would have lowered his face and begged Chen Xi, but it was a pity that he failed to live up to his expectations.

    Butler Chen has followed Chen Xi for so many years and understands that Chen Xi is not the kind of purely selfless person. Although he is public-minded, he does not completely deny himself the benefit.

    "The simplest way to put it is that Chen Xi's nephew and another stranger are both qualified for a certain position, and both have similar abilities. Chen Xi will not consider the stranger at all.

    As for abandoning relatives and favoring outsiders, Chen Xi would not do such a thing. Since they all have the same ability, why not find someone who can feel at ease with him? Since relatives are also capable, then go for it. If there is a chance to stand out, Chen Xi will do the same.  Willing to be a promoter.

    "However, this is all based on one thing. Both sides have similar abilities. Chen Xi will not go out of his way to suppress a certain person and then let the person he recommends move up. In this era, no one is worthy of Chen Xi's suppression.

    "If your ability is not up to a certain level and you want to ask Chen Xi for help, don't mention it. It will only hurt your feelings if you say it. It is true that Chen Xi is willing to help, but your ability must reach a certain level.

    In Chen Xi's concept, relatives and friends are not used to show one's impartiality and integrity. To be precise, when an official crosses his relatives and friends off the list because of reasons other than virtue and talent, I am afraid that his selfishness has become too big to bear.  Watched.

    Therefore, Chen Xi has always expressed contempt for those people who use their relatives and friends to prove their fairness and integrity. For the sake of their own path, they leave their relatives and friends with no way to go, or even cut off the paths of their relatives and friends. Such people are better off as friends.  stranger.

    Of course, this is not nepotism. Chen Xi is still clear about this level. He remembers someone once telling him that if he did not reach the bottom line, then he would not come to him. If he did, then that batch would be like that.

    "Similarly, Butler Chen also knew this, so he didn't go to Chen Xi. There was no need to make it difficult for Chen Xi. After all, his grandson Guo Kai was not considered outstanding.

    "Come, let me see if your chess skills have improved." Butler Chen said with a smile after putting down his worries.

    Then the grandfather and grandson started playing chess in the house. Unlike Chen Xi's fast chess, both Butler Chen and Guo Kai were very slow. However, if Chen Xi came over at this time and saw Guo Kai's thoughtful  His expression will probably be scrutinized carefully.

    Yongzhou, Chang'an, and Guan Yu's team escorting the treasure betrothal gifts finally arrived on New Year's Eve, and they barely made it to the court meeting.

    Looking at Chang'an, which was already a bit prosperous, Guan Yu couldn't help but nodded. Cao Cao did have capable people.

    Speaking of which, Guan Yu's feelings towards Cao Cao are not bad. If it weren't for the Xuzhou incident, Guan Yu and Cao Cao would probably have a good time drinking together. After all, when they were in Hulao, Guan Yu still remembered Cao Cao's glass of wine. At that time, he had not yet become famous.  .

    "General, can you give me a ride?" Just as Guan Yu was remembering the past, a man in ragged clothes and a messy figure suddenly said to Guan Yu not far away.

    It is said that Guan Yu is not entering the city now, just to wait for greetings at the city gate.After all, it was Liu Bei's envoy who came to greet him, and Da Honglu, one of the nine ministers, came to greet him in person. After all, Liu Bei is the only prince in the world who pays tribute every year, and he is still a member of the Liu clan.

    Guan Yu glanced at the extremely embarrassed Liu Ba. To be honest, if Liu Ba hadn't greeted Guan Yu, Guan Yu would have regarded Liu Ba as an ordinary refugee.

    By the way, there are basically no refugees in Liu Bei's area at present. Manpower is defined by Chen Xi as the biggest resource. Manpower is needed for construction and road construction everywhere. There are refugees one by one, and all comers are welcome.

    Guan Yu glanced at Liu Ba, and then closed his eyes again to rest. Zhou Cang immediately understood and took Liu Ba aside. Seeing that the garrison troops did not give way, Guan Yu came to seek help. Guan Yu encountered one in so many years, that is  Chen Xi.

    Recalling the original scene, Guan Yu did not want to embarrass Liu Ba. As for his body shape and clothing that hindered the appearance of the city, Guan Yu didn't take it to heart. He just left after entering the city. Responding to the other party's request was just a piece of cake for Guan Yu.

    "Thank you so much, General Guan. I will be richly rewarded in the future." Although Liu Ba was in ragged clothes and in a sorry state, he still had an unusual aura when he raised his hands and feet.

    Guan Yu did not speak and still closed his eyes until Dahong and Zhou Huan came to greet him. He said that because Li Jue and Guo Bang solved the food problem, the two of them did not fight, and a large number of important ministers who were supposed to have died in the Guo-Li Rebellion  Basically not dead.

    After Guan Yu entered Chang'an, Cao Cao and Cao Ang looked at Guan Yu from a distance. For some reason, Cao Cao had always admired Guan Yu very much. Of course, he was also very envious of Guan Yu's beard. However, the two sides were embarrassed to see each other now, and Cao Cao also  I can only take a peek from a distance.

    Of course, Cao Cao's actions could not be hidden from Guan Yu. When he entered Chang'an, he noticed Cao Cao. Unfortunately, things have changed since the Xuzhou incident.

    "Ang'er, take care of your brother Cao Zhen." Cao Cao withdrew his gaze and looked at Cao Ang and said.
