Chapter 469 Routines
Went to Baidi?

This time is too coincidental, does Chai Momo remember that time?Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively glanced at Ji Chongyan's reaction.

Ji Chongyan was sitting on the chair at this time, his hands and fingers were intertwined, his eyes were slightly narrowed, and he looked a little indescribably dangerous.

This is the behavior and reaction that Ji Chongyan would have when thinking about a problem, but it is not what "Mr. Zhao Xiaolang" should have.

That Mr. Zhao Xiaolang is a young man with a silver gun and a white horse. He seems to be sincere and upright, unlike Chongyan who is full of indistinguishable sense of good and evil.

Lin Yan coughed, reminding Ji Chongyan that he is Mr. Zhao Xiaolang right now.

After being reminded, Ji Chongyan let go of his intertwined hands, sat up straight, looked at the well-dressed Nanny Chai, and said in Mr. Zhao Xiaolang's tone, "Why are you here?"

When asked how he got here, Nanny Chai gave him a hard look, and said angrily, "Young Lord, you still ask me? He is out on an expedition, can the commander sneak back?"

After saying this, Nanny Chai put down the plate with a few apples in her hand, picked out the best-looking apple from it, and started peeling it seriously.

While cutting, she did not forget to talk to her own Mr. Zhao Xiaolang: "Fortunately, I was the one who discovered you. If Mr. Dalang finds out, I will have to use family law to teach you a lesson!"

Hearing the words, Ji Chongyan moved his body, glanced at Lin Yan who had a strange expression, paused for a moment, and said to Nanny Chai: "Brother...he knows what he has in hand, and he won't be cruel to me... ..."

Before the clinker finished speaking, she was interrupted by Nanny Chai, she glared at Ji Chongyan fiercely, her expression was serious, serious, distressed but with a little dissatisfaction: "The previous two times were not a big deal, Da Lang both It’s enough to beat you up for half a month, but now that you are the marching commander and you sneak back, Da Lang must kill you!”

Lin Yan looked at Nanny Chai in shock, and instinctively murmured, "How...how is it possible?"

How could His Majesty do this?
"Why not? Da Lang is a stern and selfless person." When Chai Momo said this, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, and she subconsciously said, "It's not wrong to be stern and selfless, but it's just too inhuman. You can't even persuade Miss Jiang, in order not to let Miss Jiang see the clue, you are wearing clothes that cover your neck in hot weather, and you almost got prickly heat!"

Hearing this, Ji Chongyan squinted his eyes subconsciously, which is also a movement that Ji Chongyan would only make.

Just as Lin Yan was about to cough to remind him, Nanny Chai looked at Ji Chongyan and paused.

Seeing this expression, Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he thought: Don't you want to wear it out?If it's through the gang, how can I fool Nanny Chai?What should he do...

For a moment, many questions flashed through Lin Yan's mind, but he overlooked one thing: the Nanny Chai in front of him was just an ordinary old man whose brain had been hit hard, not a vicious person, and he didn't have so many thoughts.

To Ji Chongyan, this didn't match General Zhao's expression. After a pause, Nanny Chai's reaction was really unexpected.

She nodded, looked at Ji Chongyan and said: "The little general should have some thoughts of his own. Although the elder brother is like a father, there is nothing wrong with Dalang disciplining you instead of the old general, but I always feel that something is wrong."

There are three brothers and sisters in the Zhao family, how old is Dalang Zhao compared to General Zhao and Princess Zhaoyun.By the time Dalang of the Zhao family, who is now His Majesty's weak crown, the old general Zhao had died, and his wife had also met the rebels and died outside Baoling City as early as in the past.Therefore, before General Zhao and Princess Zhaoyun were not adults, the entire Zhao family was in charge of the Zhao family.

Mr. Zhao Jiada has always given people a sense of seriousness, dignity, and prudence. The whole Zhao family has been trained and obeyed by Mr. Zhao Jiada. The younger brothers and sisters have always respected this elder brother very much.

After all, Nanny Chai, who she felt was not quite right, had already continued talking.

"Just take the matter of you coming out of the military camp to meet Miss Jiang. That day was a holiday in the military camp. What's wrong with you coming out to see Miss Jiang? Dao Dao has an order, you are not in the military camp , I didn’t receive any news, the boss is not negligent or something.” Although Nanny Chai is a servant of the Zhao family, she is just a nanny, not a member of the military camp, so she doesn’t understand these things, she said, “I don’t understand There are so many reasons, but according to what Dalang said, don’t you, a general, have to stay in the barracks all day even on a holiday? Even a mule who pulls a mill needs to rest, Dalang, this is too unreasonable gone."

Nanny Chai didn't know anything about the military camp, she just felt that Dalang Zhao was too unkind.

"But you, a fool who was beaten, kept helping Dalang, saying that his elder brother is like a father, and sometimes news in the military camp is really important, but I ask you, the news about the holiday is so important that even the letter Can't we delay it for an hour?" When Nanny Chai was speaking, the apple in her hand had already been peeled, she cut the apple into small pieces and pushed it in front of Ji Chongyan, and said with emotion, "Even the young lady thinks it's too tight , you foolish boy is helping Da Lang!"

Although they are both the masters of the Zhao family, Nanny Chai, who single-handedly brought up Mr. Zhao Xiaolang and Princess Zhaoyun, always has a partial preference for the twin siblings. There is no way, her heart is partial.Besides, her eccentricity as a nun can't cause any major problems, so it doesn't matter much.

"I see, he deliberately tormented you with the words 'elder brother is like a father'!" Nanny Chai shook her head, "How hard did he beat you? I don't know, I thought you were What a disaster! ”

A majestic elder brother who is as majestic as a father can teach his younger brothers and sisters who have made mistakes. Even if this matter is exposed outside, others will not say a word of no. Therefore, even if Nanny Chai is dissatisfied, it is only in her own Just whining in the yard.

Just like ordinary people don't find it strange to see parents chasing and beating their children with sticks, they only think that the child has done something wrong, and the parents are teaching the child, which should be the case.

Lin Yan frowned: Most parents who teach their children a lesson will not be cruel, they want to punish the mischievous children who have done something wrong.But there are indeed thousands of people in this world. He has also seen parents who intentionally tossed their children to death and disabled them, but they tried to escape the punishment of the law because of their parental status as a guarantee.

It can only be said that there are thousands of people, and it cannot be generalized.Of course, such parents are only a minority.

But the problem now is that from Nanny Chai's few words, it seems that Nanny Chai thinks that Mr. Zhao is deliberately torturing General Zhao by relying on his status as "elder brother like father".

"It would be fine if Da Lang treats everyone equally, but it would be very fierce if the stick fell on you. He himself was not Xiu Mu and did not ask for leave. He left Beijing for several months. According to Da Lang's own "delayed news", he delayed It’s not just one or two messages. You were beaten like this after delaying one message. He delayed so much, isn’t it going to be abolished?” Chai Momo looked annoyed, “Da Lang It's not fair! If the old general and his wife can still sue, right now, he is the eldest in the family and the head of the family, but he is doing so unfairly, it's really helpless!"

The eccentric Nanny Chai wanted to seek justice for her own Mr. Zhao Xiaolang.

Lin Yan listened to the words in Chai Nanny's mouth, and a rather ridiculous sentence suddenly appeared in his mind.

When the Jiang family in Baoling City made troubles, Wu Youcai was not there, and the clerk in the yamen was promoted to the hall on his behalf. At that time, the clerk said something extremely ridiculous.

"Who in the hall will sue this official!"

At that time, the civil servants said that sentence was a joke, and they couldn't count it. Even the Jiang family had problems, but if this sentence didn't come true, it would be a big trouble.

If what Chai Momo said is true, and there is no selfishness in her words, wouldn't the "elder brother is like a father" Mr. Zhao Jia Dalang be the same as an adjudicating officer with a gavel in his hand?
Indicting the officer himself before the trial officer?What is fair about this?Don't you just act according to the mood of the people in the hall?
If this is the case... then the relationship between Zhao family brothers and sisters, who seem to be harmonious to outsiders, is probably not as harmonious as it looks.

Lin Yan had a lot of thoughts in his mind for a moment.

On the opposite side, Ji Chongyan pondered for a long time, and said again at this moment: "I also think that brother is too much, so..." At this point, Ji Chongyan squinted his eyes again, "I'm not going to listen to him this time."

I was going to follow what Nanny Chai said, but I didn't expect to hear this answer, but Nanny Chai rolled her eyes and snorted: "You silly boy, don't coax me, you should listen to your elder brother's words the most. ! This time, there is no guarantee that I will listen to your elder brother's secret orders. You are so obedient, you will not be on guard, and if your elder brother sells you one day, you will not know!"

A person like Chai who has suffered a severe blow to the head naturally thinks about it.Back then, General Zhao was in Baidi and never came back, so he would not be in the situation Ji Chongyan encountered now, but how should he make up for it?Lin Yan thought.

Ji Chongyan on the opposite side is very "Little General Zhao" at this time, he smiles, his usual domineering coquettishness has been suppressed for no reason, replaced by a rare youthful spirit.

"Little General Zhao" smiled, and said to Nanny Chai: "Sure enough, you can't hide anything from Mommy, now... what time is it?"

He spoke well, but suddenly asked what time it was?Lin Yan instinctively looked outside at the sun that was already above his head: It's noon!
However, Nanny Chai didn't seem to see the sun above her head at all, and said seriously: "I just had breakfast, and I haven't passed the hour yet!"

Lin Yan: "..."

There is still a si hour between Chenshi and noon, and Nanny Chai is much later than ordinary people at this time!

Ji Chongyan ate a piece of apple that Nanny Chai had peeled, and said indifferently: "The banquet hasn't started yet!"

"Which guest came so early at Caichen?" Nanny Chai glanced at Ji Chongyan complainingly, and said, "Little General is really confused today. I was afraid that you would be hungry, so I brought you an extra plate of fruit." Pad your stomach."

Lin Yan: "..."

Although Nanny Chai is an old man next to General Zhao and Princess Zhaoyun, she doesn't need to do these chores on weekdays, but it seems that when there are not enough guests for the banquet at home, she will also help to serve the dishes and arrange the dishes together. Something for a banquet.For the banquet, the melon and fruit snacks should be prepared early. According to the time of the mother Chai, it is Chenshi, and it is the time to prepare the melon and fruit. No wonder you can bring an extra plate of fruit over!
This... Although Nanny Chai's time is different from that of ordinary people, it seems as if she is really hosting a banquet, and the process is very clear and self-consistent.

Lin Yan was still living a normal life, but Ji Chongyan on the other side had already stepped half a foot into the time of Nanny Chai. Hearing what Nanny Chai said, Ji Chongyan suddenly said: "Where is my elder brother now? Go see him!"

As soon as this remark came out, Nanny Chai gave him a blank look, with an expression of 'as expected, I was right': "I knew you would not sneak back, Da Lang must be looking for you! He is now In my own courtyard, I was discussing matters with Mr. Jiang, Mr. Shen, Mr. Wei, and an old man with a white beard holding a gossip fortune-telling board. I passed by the gate of the yard and saw that the gate was closed. There were several guards in the yard. Watching around, you can see that you are talking about something you can't listen to. If you barge in without hesitation right now, Da Lang will definitely find the wrong place and beat you again!"

When Ji Chongyan asked "Where is the eldest brother now", Lin Yan vaguely understood his intentions, and Chai Momo's answer did not disappoint their expectations at all. It seemed like an insignificant complaint, but In this conversation, Lin Yan heard many clues that he had never known before.

It was already difficult to check the list of guests for Zhao's banquet, and it was impossible for Ji Chongyan to go to His Majesty to ask about this matter, so everything can only be sidelined.

His Majesty's attitude... He was quite reticent about the events of the year, and Ji Chongyan himself could not go to Chang'an City to ask the dignitaries who might be in the banquet one by one.Then it's not called checking the matter, it's called touching the emperor's scales, is it because it's too long?

Therefore, even if Ji Chongyan wanted to know about it, he could only do it through Nanny Chai who definitely would not tell His Majesty.

It's just that Nanny Chai thought it out, and the things she said today have never been said before.

It turned out that when the Zhao family had a banquet that day, someone came to the Zhao family early.

Mr. Jiang and Mr. Shen are veteran ministers of the former court. They are out-and-out ministers of Dajing. They are loyal ministers, but they are loyal to the emperor of Dajing. She was falsely accused of being a witch who brought disaster to the country.

These two loyal ministers committed suicide for Dajing on the day the city was destroyed.

As for Mr. Wei...it is the old Mr. Wei who once saved His Majesty's life. Even if the Wei family committed such a serious crime, the whole family can still survive.

But the old man with the white beard... I don't know who he is.But judging from Nanny Chai's description - holding a gossip fortune-telling board, she might be a stranger.

At that time, the Zhao family was still Dajing's most solid loyal ministers and generals. Among other things, the loyalty of Mr. Jiang and Mr. Shen was unquestionable.

These people came to the Zhao family early that day to meet the Zhao family's Dalang, and they still closed the door to say what is the matter that no outsiders should hear?
