Chapter 76 Ready to go(1/2)

Cheng Chuliang and Cheng Chusi looked at Su Dawei and Cheng Zhijie in confusion almost all the time. They seemed to have realized something, but after thinking about it carefully, they didn't understand anything.

Now I heard that Aye, my own family, said that there was a "secret" of the Tang Dynasty's conquest of the West.

Cheng Chuliang was so shocked that he couldn't stop talking, but Cheng Chusi asked directly: "Aye, what's the secret? Can I know?"

The only one who came back to him was Cheng Zhijie's kick that kicked him several feet away.

When he got up in Cheng Chuliang's sympathetic gaze, Cheng Zhijie had already ended his whisper to Su Dawei.

Su Dawei's face showed surprise and disbelief.

Cheng Zhijie said with a smile: "Do you understand now?"

"Understood."

Su Dawei thought about it and said, "I can't believe it."

"Haha, it's okay. When I first learned about this, it was difficult for me to believe it. But thinking about it again proves that Your Majesty is powerful and has great vision, and he is truly the son of Taizong."

Cheng Zhijie laughed loudly and raised his glass to Su Dawei and said, "Come on, you and I have done this glass of wine."

Su Dawei hurriedly raised his glass, clinked his glasses with him again, and then the two of them raised their necks and drank the wine.

Cheng Chusi looked at Cheng Chuliang, and his eyes meant: What are they talking about? Why didn't I understand at all?

Cheng Chuliang: Ask me, who will I ask? You don’t know about our Aye temper.

After three rounds of drinking, Cheng Zhijie seemed a little drunk. He shook his glass and said to Su Dawei drunk: "Old Cheng, I was born in Dong'a, Jeju, everyone thought I was a rough man. Hehe, my ancestors were also rich, and my great-grandfather Xing was appointed Sima of Yanzhou in Qi; Zuzhe, Sima of Huangzhou in Qi; father Lou, Dazhongzheng of Jeju, hehe, if we count further, according to the genealogy, my old Cheng family is the thirteenth generation grandson of Cheng Yu of the Three Kingdoms..."

He glared at Su Dawei and said, "Do you think I am a rough person?"

"Not count."

Su Dawei replied casually.

But I was thinking in my heart what Cheng Zhijie meant to say this to him.

Cheng Yu, though, has heard of being a first-class strategist in the Three Kingdoms.

What is great-grandfather Xing and Zuzhe, who should have served as a senior official in Northern Qi.

As for his father Cheng Lou, Dazhong was in charge of local officials' selection and power.

From this point of view, Cheng Zhijie's origin...

Hey, Jeju Dong'a, Cheng's family, then he is also a prominent family in Shandong.

The "Shandong" among the prominent families in Shandong was not the later Shandong region, but the area east of Guanzhong.

The main gentry members are: Li clan in Longxi, Li clan in Zhaojun, Wang clan in Taiyuan, Lu clan in Fanyang, He Cui clan in Qing Dynasty, Cui clan in Boling, Zheng clan in Xingyang, Wang clan in Langya and Yan clan in Langya, Xiao clan in Lanling, Pei clan in Hedong.

The region includes Hebei, Shandong and Henan in later generations.

Although Cheng Zhijie was not the above-mentioned great gentry, he was able to form a team from the village at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and was definitely not an ordinary peasant family, nor even a poor family, at least it was only possible for local tyrants to do it.

“Ami.”

Cheng Zhijie's big hand slapped Su Dawei's shoulder and squeezed it hard: "Do you have a wife? Get a wife**?"

Su Dawei suddenly felt aroused and felt his hair standing upside down.

Could it be that the old demon Cheng’s intention is not to drink, but to tell him about a marriage of one family?

Cheng Zhijie's family has a daughter, but Su Dawei is not sure.

But looking at Cheng Zhijie's body like the iron tower and the appearance of Cheng Chuliang and Cheng Chusi's black bear, the Cheng family's genes are a bit too strong.

I'm afraid I can't bear it.

Seeing Su Dawei widened his eyes in fear, Cheng Zhijie raised his head and laughed wildly: "I miss my wife. My wife is from the Cui family in Qinghe. She is not around. I always feel like something is almost there. A man, I still have to have a wife..."

Cheng Zhijie slapped Su Dawei's shoulder hard and almost patted him to the ground.

"How can a real man have no wife? Don't worry, Ami, your marriage will be covered by me!"

"Master, don't! I'll ask my mother about marriage..."

"Aye, Aye is drunk, Ami, you go and go and take care of us."

Cheng Chusi pulled Su Dawei's sleeve and gave him a look.

Cheng Chuliang went to support Cheng Zhijie who was sitting crookedly in the morning, and then shouted loudly to the personal soldiers outside the tent for sobering up soup.

Su Dawei was a little confused and didn't know how to have a good conversation. Why did he end up like this? According to Cheng Zhijie's alcohol tolerance, it shouldn't be enough?

I don't know if it's really drunk or fake drunk.

But if you sit down again, you are afraid that something will happen. You are really afraid that Old Demon Cheng will give him a strong man who looks like Cheng Chusi to him. It would be a nightmare.

He hurriedly complained to Cheng Zhijie, then threw a wink at Cheng Chusi, and hurriedly left.

After he walked out of the tent, after a moment, Cheng Zhijie, who was drunk, sat upright and glanced at Cheng Chuliang, who was helpless beside him: "Pick up the hot towel for me and clean up the table."

"Aye, aren't you drunk?"

"Stop talking nonsense."

After saying that, he looked at Cheng Chusi again: "Do you understand if you make friends with Su Dawei with your heart?"

“Yes, Aye.”

Cheng Chusi responded honestly, but felt strange in his heart. Even if Aye didn't explain, he and Ami were in a brotherly relationship, so how could he be careful?

Su Dawei, who walked out of the tent, frowned and felt strange in his heart.

Unreasonable, unreasonable.

Cheng Zhijie This is...

Alas, I understand!

He suddenly thought of what Cheng Zhijie was saying to him.

He said a lot just now, but in fact, there are only two most important information.

First, give yourself a chance to make contributions.

Second, the Cheng family is a prominent family in Shandong.

I see.

Su Dawei felt suddenly cheerful in his heart.

Any words must be viewed in combination with the current context in order to understand what they really want to express.

If Cheng Zhijie did not combine the context, he would pull Su Dawei to drink and chatter, which would only mean that Cheng Zhijie was sick and was very ill.

But if we link what just happened in Chang'an, everything will be reasonable.

In Chang'an, Li Zhi abolished the king and established Wu.

The powerful ministers, old ministers, famous ministers, whether they were the Guanlong nobles or the Shandong prominent clans, were strongly suppressed.

Wang was deposed, and all the Wang family members behind him were demoted or removed, and were kicked out of the power center.

Even the famous ministers of Emperor Taizong's dynasty, Chu Suiliang, Lingyan Pavilion, was no exception.

Similarly, the former Concubine Xiao Shu, Xiao, and her relatives behind her, were also cruelly cleaned.

Moreover, in just half a month, Xiao and Wang were said to have been "ordered to be hanged" by Empress Wu.

What a strong signal this is!

Cheng Zhijie is also a prominent family in Shandong.

Although he is not from the largest family, his status is not ordinary.

What's more, he married the Cui family in Qinghe.

It was time for the rapids to retreat.

Cheng Zhijie, the devil king of the world, has a far-reaching sense of smell that is very comparable to that of people.

He sensitively realized that the time that belonged to his generation had passed.

Although he was the Duke of the Kingdom and was the chief general of the Western Army of the Tang Dynasty at this time, when the war ended and when he returned to Luoyang, he would inevitably hand over his power and be neglected.

Just like when Li Jing.

Cheng Zhijie's cleverness lies in the fact that he began to plan for the future without waiting for that step.

Inviting Su Dawei to drink, the seemingly irrelevant chat is the meaning of this.

Su Dawei was regarded as his younger brother by the new queen Wu Meiniang, and he was definitely the confidant of Empress Wu.

For a long time that can be seen, he will be a member of the Tang Dynasty.

Unless Empress Wu fell, the favor of the emperor Su Dawei was by no means comparable to the Cheng family, which was in decline.

Lao Cheng seemed to be generous, but his heart was clear.

Unfortunately, this matter cannot be said explicitly, and it is easy to be caught.

So Old Demon Cheng could only pretend to be crazy and secretly point out the secret.
To be continued...
