Although this is the first time that He Nan has become familiar with all the senior brothers, or it is the first collective appearance of the most outstanding seniors of Shanhe Mansion before He Nan, but to be honest, this is nothing, for For the three giants of Shanhe Mansion, it is just a sideshow. After all, the three people who regard each other as rivals, or in other words, Ye Zhan and Cao Ju who regard the other two as rivals, do not take this junior brother seriously. Up.
The next generation of genius? That will be ten years later, and their generation will always have to decide the winner.
The New Year's Eve dinner in Shanhe Mansion has never been quiet. In the early years, it was Cao Ju and Ye Zhan who quarreled. Two years later, it was Cao Ju, Ye Zhan and Li Zhun who quarreled. After Li Zhun was gone, Cao Ju would catch whom. Noisy, in short, he is always indispensable among the people who argue. Sometimes even Master has to beep a few words - the only person who has not heard his nonsense on the occasion of New Year's Eve is Senior Brother Qi Ji, but he Even if you want to hear it, you can't help it. They want to celebrate the New Year in Wugan City.
In short, no matter who stays here to celebrate the New Year, and no matter whether others are willing to listen or not, as long as they sit on this chair, the first person to speak will definitely be Cao Ju.
The first half of the night on New Year's Eve was calm, but Lu Ting knew in his heart that when he sent his wife home and everyone started talking about serious things, the sea of silence would rise in an instant.
You ask why he knew? Because he is Lu Ting, he knows everyone present except for the newly met junior brother. He can tell that a storm is coming just through one detail.
He was the first one to come back this afternoon, and the one who was just a little behind him was Ye Lao San. The two naturally chatted for a while, and Lu Ting could see the third senior brother's uneasiness from Ye Zhan's expression.
"When did Third Senior Brother make this determination?" Lu Ting asked rashly when he was alone.
"What do you mean?" Unsurprisingly, Ye Zhan did not deny it, but just asked Lu Ting - it seemed that he had made a lot of difficult decisions.
"That's the first thing you thought of after I asked." Lu Ting smiled, his words were very strict.
Ye Zhan stared at Lu Ting carefully for a while, and finally said sadly: "You know, it's just because you are always like this..." Halfway through the words, Ye Zhan also felt that the other party should be able to understand what he wanted to express, so Then he returned to the topic: "How did you see it?"
"Third Senior Brother, you have never been a person who looks around." Lu Ting put it bluntly, "You are going to say something that is difficult to say, and the person must be Master, and the occasion must be in private - otherwise there is no need for you to be like this. anxious."
"As for the extent of this matter, it may be very difficult to even make up your mind. You are afraid that if you miss this time, you may never dare to say it again, otherwise you will regret it - if you say it during the New Year, everyone may still Feeling better?" Lu Ting continued to analyze tentatively, but his eyes kept falling on Ye Zhan's face.
Ye Zhan didn't respond for a long time. It wasn't until Lu Ting looked away that he nodded slowly. A very short but extremely powerful affirmation came from his nose.
Knowing the attitude of Third Senior Brother, Lu Ting also sat upright and said very sincerely: "Then Junior Brother, I can only wish Third Senior Brother that you will achieve great success."
Ye Zhan didn't know how to say thank you in this situation, or he didn't know whether to thank Lu Ting or not, so he could only nod to show that he heard. …
"Hey, Ye Laosan, are you mute?" Over the years, the disciples would write poems and songs to celebrate the New Year in order from the youngest to the oldest. After Cao Ju finished speaking, it was Ye Zheng's turn, but he didn't say anything for a long time. Then came Cao Ju's dissatisfaction and verbal attacks.
At this moment, everyone saw that something was wrong - you said that Ye Zhan's brain was broken and he suddenly lost his ability to write poems? That's impossible. It's not like you can't even say a word, right? And it was even more impossible for him to turn a deaf ear to Cao Ju's annoying criticism.
"Just say what you have to say." Li Zhanchun, who was sitting in the seat, saw Ye Zhan's hesitation. Although he didn't know what the third disciple was hesitating about, hesitation in this situation was not a good thing after all.
"Disciple wants to ask Master for something." Zai Chang exhaled.
After getting angry, Ye Zhan tensed his body and said.
Li Zhanchun raised his eyes: "But it doesn't matter."
With the master's approval, Ye Zheng felt a little more relaxed, and then he recounted the content he had conceived bluntly: "Ye Zheng knows that after this year, several of our batch will graduate from the school. , officially entered the Shanhe Mansion - thanks to the love of the master and the help of all the brothers for so many years, Ye Zhan... wants to leave the protection of the Shanhe Mansion for a while and go out for a while. "
It can be said that one stone stirred up a thousand waves. As soon as Ye Zheng said this, everyone present was frightened to varying degrees except for Lu Ting who had already seen through it and He Nan who didn't know what was going on. Cao Ju was even more frightened. What's more, he scolded the master before he could react: "Ye Laosan, are you confused by the fever, or do you feel that your wings are stiff, and the Shanhe Mansion can no longer accommodate a giant Buddha like you?"
"Cao Ju!" Li Zhanchun immediately sternly stopped the four disciples from cursing. For the current situation, it is most important to understand why Ye Zhan made such a choice and what he wants to do next. Compared with Pointless rebuke will only waste time and intensify conflicts.
"Why did you think of leaving Shanhe Mansion?" Li Mastiff calmed down his mood. In fact, he did not object to his disciples seeking a better way out. Based on Li Mastiff's understanding of Ye Zheng, it was not a problem that he would choose to leave. It was a very unexpected thing, but he had to confirm at least one thing - whether that choice was really better. It was not that no one among the non-disciples had made such a decision. Some people had a smooth career, while others did not. It's not all satisfactory. A talented person like Ye Zheng will definitely not have his talents buried, but whether he can fully utilize his potential and abilities is another matter.
What's more, being in Shanhe Mansion and being in the court are completely different things - in Shanhe Mansion, as long as you have the ability to solve crimes, it is enough, but above the court, you don't just need sharp intelligence to survive. of.
Now that the matter has come to this, Ye Zheng no longer tries to hide his reasons, and even the relatively gentle words he originally intended are thrown away: "Master... to whom will Shanhe Mansion be handed over in a hundred years from you?" ?」
Ye Zhan didn't seem to be prepared to hear the answer. Perhaps he himself felt that the question was too sharp and inappropriate, so he immediately added his own understanding: "No matter who it is, Shanhe Mansion will only be led by one person in the end." , and that person...Ye Zheng thinks that he is not as good as his junior brother."
Although Ye Zheng did not name the junior brother, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the spearhead was hanging in front of Lu Ting, and Li Zhanchun did not rush to refute, but actually thought about Ye Zheng's words - -Yes, judging from Ye Zhan's pride, he will never be willing to be just a deputy or the head of a department under Lu Ting, but if there is really a candidate to replace him in charge of Shanhe Mansion...
Ye Zheng was right, he didn't have no chance at all, but at least from now on, Lu Ting was more suitable... much more.
"In this case, Ye Zhan has nothing to think about. He can find his own way out, so he doesn't have to worry too much. At least he avoids the feud between his roommate and brother."
"So you already have the path you planned for yourself." Li Zhanchun nodded, roughly knowing where Ye Zhan was going.
"A few days ago, the Chief Butcher of the Punishment Department came and invited his disciples to come to the Punishment Department and give it a try." Speaking of this, Ye Zheng felt ashamed to face Jiangdong's elders.
"That's right. Find yourself a good home first, and then tell us that you want to start a new business." Cao Ju said viciously. He had already had some easing of tension with Ye Zhan, but they only fought occasionally. It was just a verbal spat, but today "can be regarded as letting him see through the true face of this white-eyed wolf", so he was particularly excited: "If you had this intention, why didn't you say it on the first day you entered the house? To take a step back, if you had already Tell Master that you want to go out and find a way out, and I will look up to you!"
"Ye Lao San, Ye Lao San, you are such a pickpocket, why don't you wait until you get married to tell your in-laws that you have a sweetheart outside?"
"Cao Ju! Say that again?" Ye Zhan's anger was completely ignited at this moment - because Cao Ju really hit his sore spot, which was where he felt inferior.
Source - He was originally an illegitimate child.
But Cao Ju didn't know this, so the two of them had this misunderstanding by accident. Of course, Cao Ju thought that Ye Zhan was angry because of his metaphor, and he didn't stop talking: "Is it possible that I said it wrong? Already?"
Ye Zhan didn't know if Cao Ju "said the wrong thing", but the two of them had a fight in front of everyone, in the early morning of the first day of the new year, in the main hall of Shanhe Mansion.
