    "I've been waiting for a long time. I wanted to talk to the clan elder about something." Chen Xi greeted the waiting people.

    "Old Chen has something to discuss with Marquis Chen, so I should wait for a while." Chen Liang said with a smile. As for the Xun family and the Fan family, they are both of the same generation. What can they say if they encounter this kind of thing.

    Chen Xi cupped his hands and smiled bitterly, expressing how rude he was, and it was hard for others to say anything when they saw this scene, so they followed Chen Xi to the Yangzhai government office.

    On the way, Butler Chen sent Chen Xi and his family back to their original Chen family. Looking at the small family, whether it was Fan Jian, Chen Lan, or Zhen Mi who came here for the first time, they all felt quite emotional. Chen Xi had originally  I have lived here for more than ten years.

    "It seems that people come to clean it from time to time, but there are no changes in the layout." Chen Lan looked at the clean floor and the subtle smell in the air, and knew that the place had not been cleaned urgently before they came.  Fan.

    "It always feels so small." Zhen Mi said helplessly after looking around for a long time.

    "Yeah, I didn't feel it at first, but now I really feel so small." Fan Jian stroked her hair and nodded in agreement, but Chen Lan remained silent.

    "It was here that my husband taught me to read." Chen Lan slowly pushed open the study room. There were only a few desks and a couch, but the books on the bookshelf were still curled up there.

    "But there weren't many books at the beginning, and my husband didn't take these books with him when he left." Chen Lan picked up a volume and opened it slowly. The scene when Chen Xi held her in his arms while reading, and lied to her that it was about to rain, was clearly reflected.  Before her eyes, it seemed like it was yesterday.

    "That's great." Zhen Mi said slightly enviously.

    Fan Jian can only recall the image of Chen Xi when he was twelve or thirteen years old, but then Chen Xi really took advantage of the wind and transformed into a dragon. The youthfulness at the beginning was wiped away, and the image of him as a teenager has been covered by the self-confidence of looking down on the world.

    "But my husband is very interesting. When he teaches me, he always tells me stories. Unfortunately, I have forgotten many of them." Chen Lan said with a slight embarrassment, "My husband became a lot busier after that."

    "That's great." Zhen Mi looked at Chen Lan and suddenly found that both she and Fan Jian had much worse shared memories than Chen Lan.

    "Sister Jian'er, where are you?" Zhen Mi asked, smoothing her hair.

    Fan Jian was a little silent, and suddenly realized that she had very few opportunities to meet Chen Xi during those three years. She couldn't help but look at the bracelet on Chen Lan's wrist. Chen Xi's name loomed among the red jade.

    "When my husband has been a filial piety for three years, I didn't have many opportunities to get in touch with him." Fan Jian said calmly, without any intention of hiding anything.

    "Was the family in trouble back then?" Zhen Mi asked in confusion. The worst time in the Zhen family's life was when Chen Xi entered Jizhou and suppressed one party.

    "Yes." Chen Lan nodded lightly without saying anything more. At first, she and Uncle Chen were the only two people left to accompany the head of the family in the huge Chen family's old house, but the maids and servants who left the Chen family at that time were probably all.  Regret it.

    This is probably also the reason why Chen Xi doesn't pay much attention to the maids at home now. As for Chen Yun and Chen Ying, one is doing what Chen Lan once did, and the other is taking care of Chen Xi's food and drink. As for the other maids at home, Chen Xi may know them.  Name it.

    On the other side, Chen Xi and Hua Xiong did not refuse the banquet prepared by Yang Zhai Tai. After dusk, major aristocratic families came to join the banquet one after another.

    It was also at this time that Chen Xi met the spokesmen of each family in Yingchuan. Although these people were not the heads of the family, they still had considerable say in the family.

    If they are related to each other, Chen Xi is related to more than half of them. Needless to say, the Xun family has a lot of marriages between the Chen family and the Xun family. The Zhong family, Chen Shi¡¯s first wife is Zhong Hao¡¯s sister, and Zhong Hao¡¯s  The great-grandson is Zhong Yao

    By the way, in terms of seniority, Zhong Yao should actually call Chen Xi uncle when he sees him. However, Chen Xi and Zhong Hao are of different seniority. Two people who have a good relationship at this time should not even marry a sister to each other. Zhuge Jin  It is enough to marry a daughter to a friend.

    Actually, at first, Chen Xi was quite curious about marrying her daughter to a friend as his wife, and what she would call her when the time came. But after meeting her once, she had nothing to say.

    Generally speaking, in private, everyone calls each other his own name. But when it comes to important occasions like court gatherings or sacrifices, a certain marquis, or a certain official invites the wife of a certain official. In such formal occasions, the daughter is not called daughter, but daughter.  Called Mrs. So-and-so.

    So at the last glance, Chen Xi found that it seemed that about half of them were related within five generations. Of course, the reason why they were counted as five generations was a matter of course, just like Chen Xi was considered a branch of the Yingchuan branch, which means that Chen Xi's grandfather  He was the head of the family.

      However, the virtue of a gentleman can only be cut down in five generations. The gap of five generations is actually quite far away. Although Chen Xi and Chen Qun were the same ancestors five generations ago, in fact, they basically don¡¯t know each other.

    Then there is another saying that rich people have distant relatives in the mountains. After Chen Xi got up, he gradually came into contact with those relatives whom he didn't know at all. Whether it was the other party taking the initiative or Chen Xi taking the initiative, at a glance now, Chen Xi found that basically all  It's a relative.

    This is the speechless relationship network of the family, and Chen Xi is now a node in the network.

    [More than half of them are relatives. I didn¡¯t realize it before we sat together. Now that we sit together, including the Sima family who didn¡¯t show up, more than half of the famous ministers in Cao Wei are related to me. But thinking back, doesn¡¯t this mean  Are they all related to Xun Yu?  ¡¿ Chen Xi thought silently after toasting from afar with his wine glass.

    ¡¾As a responsible monarch, after the world situation gradually becomes clear, it is simply impossible not to eliminate the potential hidden dangers under his command. It is estimated that many of Xun Yu's unlucky children were shot because of this reason.  ¡¿ Chen Xi thought with a wry smile while drinking from the wine glass.

    After all, even Chen Xi himself was a little surprised when he saw this scene. Half of the power of a dynasty is inextricably related to the most powerful person under your command. Even an emperor with astonishing courage cannot help but be wary.

    "Perhaps the situation in the world is not yet clear and strength is still needed, the other party will still tolerate it, but when the situation in the world becomes clear, I am afraid that no emperor will be able to tolerate it.

    "Fortunately, I have already enlightened the world first, and I am also leading the family to another path, but Xuande Gong's ambition is too big for me to bear.  ¡¿A smile suddenly appeared on Chen Xi's face. Liu Bei is really stupid sometimes.

    In this troubled world, Liu Bei is probably the only one who has been unable to do it, but has been trying, and has never broken through the bottom line for his own purposes.
