Chapter 63 The retainers of the Hou House

(Continue to ask for monthly tickets…)

After exchanging customs clearance documents, I successfully entered the city.

Chen Lie’s newly built Tinghou Mansion is located in Dongcheng. Chen Hai and his friends soon saw the brand new Zhaoyang Tinghou Mansion, standing at the end of a stone-paved street.

The huge house covers an area of ​​hundreds of acres. In front of the house is a square of more than ten acres in size. On both sides are long slits of horse-tie stones, tied with various spirit cavalry. Just looking at these spirit cavalry, you will know that those who attended today's night banquet were all the most direct generals and troops in front of Chen Lie's tent. The Tinghou Mansion sent more than a dozen people outside to take good care of these spirit cavalry.

"Chen Su!" Wu Meng shouted at a middle-aged man guarding outside the gate.

"So it's Wu Meng, you," the middle-aged man strode over, greeted Wu Meng with a smile, and turned his eyes hesitantly on Chen Hai and the others' faces, asking Wu Meng, "What are these three masters?"

Chen Lie had a cultivation cave house on Chiyun Cliff, and in Weijiang City there was a general's mansion on Duwuwei.

Chen Su was previously the deputy general manager of the General Wuwei Mansion of Duwu. At this time, Chen Lie was transferred to the deputy general manager of the Yulong Camp and was granted the title of Marquis of Zhaoyang Ting. The General Manager of Duwuwei in Weijiang City no longer exists. Naturally, he rushed to Yulong Mansion as the deputy general manager of the Marquis of Duwu.

Although Chen Hai had never met Chen Su, he never believed that the smart and capable Chen Su would not recognize him at this time. He thought that Chen Su seemed to have determined that Chen Zhang was the young master of the Hou Mansion, and he actually used this little trick to show his position in front of him.

Chen Hai stood up with his hands and turned to look at the door hanging on the gate of the Marquis' Mansion. The red iron plaque of "Zhaoyangting Marquis' Mansion" was naturally hung on it. The plaque was cast from red essence iron, bright red, with five large ink characters, iron-cut silver hooks, vigorous and powerful, with an indescribable vibrant charm...

Seeing that Wu Meng wanted to explain his identity to Chen Su, Chen Hai broke the conversation and pointed to the plaque and asked Wu Meng: "Wu Meng, guess who is the work of these five words, and you have extraordinary skills!"

"If you guessed correctly, it should be Sun Gan's work!" Wu Meng said.

"Sun Gan served as the chief minister in front of my uncle's account. He was the leader of all officials. He said that he had a very high level of cultivation in the Taoist world with his literary style. Now he could be extraordinary if he just reads the five characters. Let's go in." Chen Hai walked towards the door of the mansion, without even looking at Chen Su.

Wu Meng glanced at Chen Su with an embarrassed look on his face, and said nothing more. He threw him aside, followed Chen Hai with Zhou Jun and Ge Tong, and walked into the house. The four mounts were thrown out directly, and he didn't believe that Chen Su and the others really dared not care.

There were naturally guards behind the gate. Seeing Chen Su so embarrassed, they could not refuse, and could not welcome him. They could only smile and watch Chen Hai and the others walk straight into the yard.

In the past six months, Chen Hai and the others have never left Yulong Mountain, and they don’t know the layout of the newly built marquis’ mansion. However, as the young master, Chen Hai naturally had the calmness to walk into his own yard and was walking leisurely in the maze-like yard.

After a while, a few people came out from behind the gate of another courtyard. The middle-aged man in charge had a short moustache on his lips. He looked very elegant and stood in front of the corridor with a font shape and bowed: "Su Yuan didn't know that the young master arrived at this time and didn't even go out to greet him. It was really rude."

Su Yuancai is the chief manager of the Hou Mansion, and he and Sun Gan and others are both Chen Lie's right-hand man. Chen Hai had never seen him before.

If Chen Su had led Chen Hai and the others directly just now, Su Yuan wouldn't have to come to greet him in person. He must have known that there had just been an inconspicuous trivial matter outside the gate.

"It turns out it's Uncle Su, Chen Hai is courteous," Chen Hai returned the courteous, and said with a smile, "Who is the one named Chen Su at the door just now, but he didn't recognize me. After I go back, I will ask Wu Meng to check it out to see if Chen Su has his sons and nephews practiced in Huanglongyuan Taoist Court. I want to take good care of him!"

Su Yuan naturally didn't like Chen Hai who was too scheming and too anxious, but he didn't expect that as soon as Chen Su offended him, he openly expressed his revenge on Chen Su's nephew. He could only lead Chen Hai to the hall where the generals gathered together without changing his face.

The few people following Su Yuan were all in charge of the Marquis' Mansion, but they were secretly shocked after hearing this.

Unlike the Chen clan's direct lineage who can directly enter the inner sect of Shangqi Peaks to practice, the Chen clan's side branches and the nephews who are talented in cultivation can only go to the Taoist temple to practice first.

Chen Lie worked in the Yulong Camp and was named the Marquis of Zhaoyang Ting. The official fief was granted to Yulong Mansion. These people were Chen Lie's direct subordinates, and their nephews could only go to Huanglongyuan Taoist Courtyard to practice in the future.

This means that no matter how much they look down on this young master, their nephews will fall into the hands of this "young master" as long as they enter Huanglongyuan Taoist Courtyard to practice. Moreover, there have been many children before, and they are rebellious and are being punished for being tragically disobedient in Huanglongyuan Taoist Courtyard...

Thinking of this, the scalp behind Su Yuan was tingling, and he felt that this vengeful "young master" was really not something they could easily provoke.

***************************

The marquis's mansion was also decorated with lights, and Chen Lie had several private letters to write them in person. He was still in the backyard study room, but Chen Zhang, Chen Qing and others, as well as a group of direct generals, had gathered in the banquet hall and were waiting for the beginning of the banquet.

Even Su Ziling sat next to Chen Qing.

Chen Hai followed Su Yuan into the hall, and many people stood up with Chen Zhang.

No matter what everyone thinks behind his back, he looks down on him as a playboy, but Chen Hai's identity as "legitimate son" was personally identified by the head of the family Chen Lie, and he has the same status as Chen Zhang in the Tinghou Mansion.

Even if these direct officials and generals around Chen Lie don’t have to go out of the mansion to greet him, they still have to stand up to show their respect at this time. Only Chen Qing sat there on his own, and he was too lazy to look at Chen Hai.

Chen Zhang was also very "enthusiastic" and introduced these people in the hall to Chen Hai.

Shi Sungan, the chief of Chen Lie's official in front of the tent, was a middle-aged scholar under 40 years old. He was a feather fan and Lun Treasure. Like Su Yuan, he had the late stage of the Piling Realm. As a direct subordinate of the Chen clan, he has always been Chen Lie's right-hand man.

In addition, there are two late-stage powerhouses of the Spirit Realm who were born in the Chen clan, Chen Quan and Chen Yu, who grew up with Chen Lie and had a close relationship.

In the future, the Zhaoyangting Marquis Mansion will form a unique line within the Chen family. Su Yuan, Sun Gan, Chen Quan and Chen Yu can be said to be the four pillars of the Zhaoyangting Marquis Mansion, and they have always been trusted and valued by Chen Lie.

Moreover, they are all in their prime, and their cultivation still has the potential and space to further breakthrough.

In addition to these four people, including Chen Su, who just wanted to touch Chen Hai, there were nearly 30 direct generals from the Piling Realm who could use it in front of Chen Lie’s tent.
