This is not the real father, the stepfather is still the same.

Jiang Hetai felt very depressed, and at the same time he didn't give Xiao Zhi any good face. Humph--

If it weren't for sending him, would I end up like this???

At this moment, he had long forgotten how he was showing off at the beginning, and Xiao Zhi was too lazy to pay attention to him. After seeing him get down, he said lightly: "It's not a solution for you to be idle all day long."

"The old Duke will have a headache when he sees you. With his violent temper, he has not crippled you. It is already a blessing from outside the law."

Jiang Hetai said with a more aggrieved voice: "Do you think I am willing to do this? The question is, what can I do---"

"That old guy always wants to throw me into the military camp. Bah---, is that broken place a place where people can stay??"

As soon as he said this, Xiao Zhi's face changed. What do you mean? The military camp is not a place where people are alone, so how did he stay???

Maybe Jiang Hetai realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he immediately rescued himself and said, "Hey, that, I didn't mean it, I mean that the military camp is not a good place---"

"Hey, no, I---"

"I'll go---"

He couldn't say it anymore. After a long time, he threw down and said, "Anyway, I won't go to the military camp, and I don't want to lead troops to fight."

"It's a good life, but I'll endure hardships, fight and kill all day---"

"I'm all like this now. If I continue to struggle like this, will I still survive?"

Xiao Zhi looked down on him the most. If he had been the officers and soldiers with low hands, he would have been so tired that he would not even recognize his mother.

However, after looking at his miserable appearance, I am afraid that if the Duke of the State hadn't thought this was his baby, he would have beaten him to death long ago.

So he put the book on the table and said, "Look at your promising prospect---"

"Okay, don't be tragic here, I have an errand here, you can do it."

When Jiang Hetai heard this, he immediately raised his head and said, "You won't really send me to the military camp, cousin, you are my dear cousin, can we not do this?"

Xiao Zhi looked at him with disgust and said, "I won't send you to the military camp."

"You don't have to fight or kill, you just need to know how to eat, drink and have fun."

When Jiang Hetai heard this, he was happy and sat up directly. As a result, he used too much force. He grinned and said, "Really???"

Xiao Zhi glanced at him lightly and said, "Do you love to go?"

"Go, why not go---"

When Jiang Hetai heard this, he was happy, and then he seemed to be alive.

"I'm talking to me at home every day, and my ears are almost calloused, and that old man doesn't like me either."

"Hmph, I, Jiang and Tai, are also famous in this Bianjing City. Naturally, I can do a great job, that is, the years are not going well and I haven't met the right one."

"Cousin, don't worry, the errands you gave me will definitely be done beautifully. At that time, huh, let them take a good look, and look down on others---"

......

Xiao Zhi couldn't help but want to beat him. Jiang Hetai's mouth was getting cheaper and cheaper. No wonder the old Duke wanted to beat him eight times a day.

However, since he agreed, Xiao Zhi stopped talking and called him directly. Without saying a word, he sent him to Zhenbeicheng.

Let him deal with the group of horse thieves. With his intelligence, I don’t think he will be deceived.

As for what he is going to be, he doesn't care about what he is going to eat, drink, and have fun. Whatever he does, as long as he can negotiate the business.

Jiang Hetai was so arrogant because he got an errand. He just waited to the place and almost cried. So what place is it? It’s poor and bad, so many troublemakers--

He missed the prosperity and food of Bianjing infinitely, and the good brothers who were playing playboys together. Fortunately, there was a branch in Fengcheng Xiangmanlou, which made him feel much more comfortable.

By the way, the new pot bottom in Xiangmanlou is so refreshing, so spicy and exciting, and the business is even more booming, especially in winter, when the north is cold, eating a pot of scattered clouds is like a god.

Of course, this is all a story.

After dealing with Jiang Hetai's affairs, Xiao Zhize asked: "How long will the large army arrive in Bianjing?"

Dongji replied immediately: "It will be here in less than three days."

Xiao Zhi nodded, and then said, "What's going on with Luo Jin and Beiliang Kingdom?"

Dongji frowned and said, "The Eighth Prince, Wang Xian, and the Thirteenth Prince, Liu Wei, the Northern Liang State."

Xiao Zhi raised his head and said, "The country of Luo Jin is sure to be the Eighth Prince, Wang Xian?"

Dongji hurriedly said, "That's right."

Xiao Zhi couldn't help but knocked the table with his finger and said, "I heard that King Luo Jin had won seven cities in succession by my Great Zhou, and he was so angry that he couldn't get sick."

"This Eighth Prince Wang Xian is the person who is most expected to ascend the throne. At this time, I am afraid that I have a lot of requests to go out to my Great Zhou."

Dongji immediately said, "I think so too."

Xiao Zhi nodded and said, "No matter how much they are, I can't figure it out."

After saying that, he picked up the book and said, "What's wrong with the Liu Mansion recently?"

Seeing this, Dongji said seriously: "Since recently, Liu Shaoqing often went to the palace, as if he was discussing the affairs of envoys from both countries."

"And my subordinates heard that the Wang family intends to marry the Liu family---"

When Xiao Zhi heard this, he paused and said, "Wang Family?"

"Oh---"

He sneered and said nothing more. Dongji blinked when he saw this and said, "There is another interesting thing. The eldest master of the Liu family and Liu Yuanhua have been very close to the eldest master of Lu in Princess Anping's house recently, and it has been highly praised by Prince Lu."

Xiao Zhi was slightly stunned this time and said, "Prince Lu?"

Dongji nodded repeatedly.

Princess Anping had been injured by miscarriage and had nowhere to be found for many years, so she decided to take a concubine for Prince Lu. After giving birth to Master Lu, she kept it by her side.

Although the eldest son of Lu was born in a concubine, he had a stable position in the princess's house. However, Liu Yuanhua and the eldest son of Lu were both martial. I really don't know how the two of them could hook up together.

Oh no, it was a conversation. Dongji hurriedly corrected his slip of the tongue.

Xiao Zhi was thinking more. Princess Minrou had a very good relationship with Liu Yunge, but recently he heard that his cousin had a great fuss with his eldest princess aunt.

Now Liu Yuanhua and Princess Minrou's brother are getting closer. Is there something in between???

Then, Xiao Zhi frowned again. The Wang family wanted to marry. Although he looked down on the Wang family's nature of changing with the wind, for scholars, the temptation of the Wang girl was absolutely sufficient.

Moreover, Liu Yuanhua became a disciple of Wang Daru. If he married Wang's daughter and had the strong help from Wang, he would definitely be able to go to a higher level in his career in the future.

Although Princess Minrou is a royal family girl, she does not recognize these things in the officialdom, and she is divided into factions in the officialdom.
