Chapter 271: The Banquet Begins!

Chapter 271

Minister of the Ministry of War!

The position planned by Zhangchou Jianqiong is a pivotal position for any party. It is impossible for any transfer of the Ministry of War to bypass the order of the Minister of the Ministry of War.

Turning a blind eye to the former Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Zhangchou Jianqiong is now in the prime of life and full of ambition. If he serves as Shangshu of the Ministry of War, he will never be a puppet at the mercy of others.

It is also because of this that Zhangchou Jianqiong's political discussion in the court has been delayed for so long, and he has been unable to win it. Even Wang Chong's uncle, Wang Gen, only agreed when he heard that Zhangchou Jianqiong's appointment was imperative.

Zhangchou Jianqiong is a real "outsider". His appearance will disrupt the entire court and forcefully introduce a wave of uncontrollable variables.

This is exactly what the bigwigs in the court fear.

It is definitely not a trivial matter that Annan's chief protector suddenly became Minister of the Ministry of War.

These thoughts turned in Wang Chong's mind, and he quickly regained his composure, standing quietly beside his uncle Wang Gen.

"Brother Zhangchou, I've been waiting for a long time. Please!"

At the same time, Wang Chong's uncle Wang Gen also stretched out a hand to greet him. Wang Gen was the only one in the entire Wang family who was on the same level as the Annan Grand Protector.

The difference is that Zhangchou Jianqiong is a military officer, while Wang Gen is a civil servant.

Although the fields are different, Wang Gen's qualifications in the court are not inferior to Zhangchou Jianqiong's at all. Even because the Wang family is the family of generals, they can participate in the court's political discussions and decide Zhang Qiu Jianqiong's promotion, which is even better than Zhang Qiu Jianqiong.

This is also the reason why Zhangchou Jianqiong has always wanted to enter the court.

"Haha, this must be Wang Chong, the famous Qilin son of the Wang family!"

After chatting with Wang Gen, Zhangchou Jianqiong didn't take his seat, but turned his eyes, looking meaningfully at Wang Chong who was actively restraining his breath beside Wang Gen.

"Your Excellency, I am really admiring you. I am indeed Wang Chong. I would like to thank you for your help regarding Jiedushi!"

Now that Zhangchou Jianqiong took the initiative to pay attention to him, Wang Chong stopped hiding. He stepped out from beside his uncle, took a step forward, respectfully, and saluted generously.

"Ha ha,

Thanks no need. "

Zhangchou Jianqiong waved his hand, "I'm helping you out of righteousness and state affairs, so you don't have to think too much about it. On the contrary, at such a young age, Mr. Wang has such foresight, tolerance, and can worry about state affairs, which is really commendable. Future achievements There must be no limit."

As soon as Wang Chong stepped onto the stairs, he had already noticed it. Perhaps Wang Chong himself thought that as long as he kept a low profile, he would not attract attention, but this was basically impossible.

This time, I was hosting a banquet for the Wang family at the Ten Days Restaurant in Goguryeo. One of the purposes was to meet the powerful and important Wang Gen of the Wang family. In the whole world, the unicorn of the Wang family is full of troubles.

"Restrain when it's time to be restrained, stand out when it's time to stand out, be generous when speaking, behave decently, and have neither humble nor overbearing eyes... It really is the bearing of a general and a family. It is said that after Wang Jiuling passed away, only With only one Wang Gen left to support the facade, the Wang family is bound to decline. Looking at it now, it may not be so. The blessing of the Wang family may last for another generation!"

Zhangchou Jianqiong had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and in an instant he had an accurate judgment on the Wang family.

Jiu Gong is old, and Wang Gen has already achieved the top in the court. The future of the Wang family is also determined by the younger generations of the three generations.

And among all the descendants of the Wang family, the one who is Zhangchou and Qiong is Wang Chong. To be able to enter the palace to face the saint at such a young age, to enter the prison without dying, and to receive the favor of the saint, Wang Chong's favor is simply amazing.

Neither the Wang Gen back then nor the young Zhangchou Jianqiong had ever received this kind of divine favor! If there were no accidents, this person would probably be an important presence in the court in the future.

Zhangchou Jianqiong knew the "pulse" of the Wang family in his heart, so he knew what to do in the capital in the future.

"Hahaha……"

At this moment, there was a sudden burst of laughter, which attracted everyone's attention. Wang Chong turned his head to look, and saw a figure in another box on the third floor pushed open the door at the right time, and walked out "just in time".

This one is wearing a white robe and a black headband, and his demeanor is very civilized.

"Yang Zhao!"

Wang Chong blinked his eyes, recognized the figure that appeared, and realized what he thought. This guy Yang Zhao obviously arrived early, but he deliberately avoided it, stayed in the box beside him, waited until he and his uncle appeared, and after seeing Zhangchou Jianqiong, he stepped in without losing the opportunity.

Obviously, this should be the intentional result of Zhangchou Jianqiong and Yang Zhao.

"...Master Zhangchou, how about it, am I right?"

Yang Zhao laughed out loud.

"Hehe, not bad, not bad! The prince is a heroic young man, a dragon and a phoenix among the people, how can the family status of a general be poor?"

Zhangchou Jianqiong folded his hands and said with a smile.

Zhangchou Jianqiong and Yang Zhao spoke differently. They were much more easy-going and friendly, making people feel like their own brothers. People could tell at a glance that his relationship with Yang Zhao was unusual.

"Hahaha, they are all from my family. Come, come, Mr. Wang, please!"

While laughing, Yang Zhao walked over with his head held high, stretched out his right hand, and unexpectedly replaced Zhangchou Jianqiong as the master, inviting Wang Gen to take a seat.

But Zhangchou Jianqiong smiled and didn't mind at all.

"How is this going?"

Seeing all this, Wang Gen twitched the corners of his brows, secretly surprised. He knew that Yang Zhao had a relationship with Zhang Qiu, but the relationship between the two seemed to be much more intimate than the relationship he had obtained.

On the other hand, Wang Chong, who was at the side, knew it clearly, and was not surprised at all.

Zhangchou Jianqiong is the "big benefactor" behind Yang Zhao.

Back then Concubine Taizhen hadn't ascended to the throne yet, so everything was still uncertain. Zhangchou Jianqiong supported Yang Zhao in Annan, gave him a large sum of money, and sent him to Beijing.

You know, Yang Zhao was just a low-level rogue back then, and he was prone to gambling and losing. In name, he is only Concubine Taizhen's cousin.

Things don't always work out.

Under such circumstances, Zhang Qiu Jianqiong dared to invest heavily in Yang Zhao and treated him with courtesy. One can imagine the courage in his chest.

However, Zhangchou Jianqiong probably didn't expect that Yang Zhao had just arrived in the capital, and before he finished his work, he had already gambled so much that he lost all the money he gave, and finally met himself.

Now that Concubine Taizhen is on the throne, Yang Zhao reciprocates, and the relationship between the two is naturally not bad.

Knowing this relationship, Wang Chong was not surprised. On the other hand, Yang Zhao kept blinking at him and signaling, which made Wang Chong secretly laugh.

"please!"

Wang Gen on the side didn't think much about it, he stretched out his right hand from his sleeve, and made a vain introduction, and the guests and hosts were seated, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

The chairs of the Goguryeo people are also exquisite, and they are extravagant in order to make money.

Wang Chong sat down on his seat and immediately looked around.

Zhangchou Jianqiong hosted far more than their uncle and nephew of the Wang family this time, there were many other people in the pavilion on the third floor. Many of them are Zhangchou Jianqiong's subordinates at first glance, while others should be Zhangchou Jianqiong's "inners" in Beijing.

Annan's Chief Protector has been serving for so many years, it is impossible for Zhangchou Jianqiong to have his own eyeliner in the court.

"These people don't know which one is Xianyu Zhongtong? Which one is Zhang Qiantuo?"

Wang Chong secretly said in his heart.

The people that Zhangchou Jianqiong brought here this time were all broad-shouldered and muscular, full of aura, and with a strong killing aura, they looked like important generals in the army.

Among all these people, Wang Chong only cares about two people. One is Xianyu Zhongtong and the other is Zhang Qiantuo.

For Wang Chong, all of these two have extraordinary meanings. However, even though he knew the names of these two, Wang Chong had never seen any of them.

When Zhangchou and Qiong went to Beijing, logically, they should bring the people closest to them. However, Wang Chong was not fully sure.

Logically speaking, one should be able to tell from the rankings, but Zhang Qiu Jianqiong sat on the left hand side of Yang Zhao, while on the right side was a man with a mustache. He looked shrewd, not like a soldier, but like a military adviser. people.

So for a while, Wang Chong couldn't tell which one was Xianyu Zhongtong and which one was Zhang Qiantuo. Or did they not come at all?

"Come on, shopkeeper, the food is served!"

On the opposite side, Zhangchou Jianqiong sat down at the table, waved his hand, and began to greet the shopkeeper to serve the food. Annan's Daduhu has a strong military style on his body, and his every move looks bold and generous.

On the other side, although the Goguryeo people had a weird atmosphere, they got the signal and started to get busy. Several plates of exquisite appetizers were served immediately, a plate of Yujing bone crispy fish, a plate of Xishi tongue with sauce, a plate of five-grade dragon and phoenix, and a plate of emerald imperial concubine chicken. The crispy, oily roast suckling pig immediately lifted the atmosphere of the whole banquet.

Although he didn't like the Goguryeo people, Wang Chong had to admit that the Goguryeo people put a lot of thought into this restaurant.

These dishes are complete in color, aroma, and taste, and they can satisfy people's appetite just by looking at them, which is not only a bit higher than the dishes in Guanghe Tower.

"I heard that the people of Goguryeo believed in the three-legged golden bird, the sun is the most powerful, so they built this ten-day restaurant. Zhangchou came to Beijing today, so I borrowed these ten days to be the host here and entertain everyone. You don't have to have fun today. And return."

Zhangchou and Qiongdao.

"The general is polite."

Everyone hurriedly said.

In the entire building, only Wang Chong's uncle, Wang Gen, was the one who could stand on an equal footing with Zhang Chou and Qiong Qiong, and the others would not dare to accept his words.

"Haha, you don't have to be polite. Jiexin, when I was in the capital, I have been fascinated by Jiexin for a long time. I have always wanted to get together and chat with Jiexin, but unfortunately there has never been a chance. Now, it is my wish. .”

"Brother Zhangchou, you are being polite. Brother Zhangchou will be in charge of the atrium in the future, so there will naturally be more opportunities."

Wang Gen said, a rare respect.

This is the routine in the officialdom. Zhangchou Jianqiong used to be a general, but once he entered the atrium and became the Minister of the Ministry of War, it was not the case.

The two will have a lot to do with each other in the future.

"Then take advantage of the festival to believe in good words!"

Hearing these words, Zhangchou Jianqiong's eyes lit up, and he was in a good mood:

"Come on, let's have a toast to this sentence!"

All of a sudden, even Wang Chong raised his glass and took a small sip. Who would dare not give the face of Annan Dadu?
