23.Chapter 023
"According to the results of the interrogation, the guard learned that Princess Rebecca had gone to the Marshal's Mansion that afternoon, so he speculated that His Royal Highness Akers missed the royal sister and invited the princess to come to the palace, and the general went home to accompany His Highness Ax to meet guests, and then he was late for the military meeting."
Colonel Lin Zexi, Lieutenant General Hain, and other Chen Jing's confidants held a meeting in the office to discuss the impact of the incident.
"The guard also confessed that these were just jokes he casually joked about when chatting with his family, and he didn't expect his family to take it seriously, and he also revealed the news to others, leading to the leakage of the internal situation of the military department."
"This man's orientation is very clear, ostensibly to discredit the General and His Highness Axes, but its real goal is ...... It seems like there are more than two people. "Hayne has become very serious in the workplace instead of his usual cynical appearance.
The words of this interrogation reveal the depth of Prince Ax's influence on the general.
He missed his sister, so the general took Princess Rebecca to the Marshal's Mansion, and personally accompanied him to express his importance to His Highness, in order to accompany the prince to dinner, he regarded the military meeting as a child's play, which was to highlight the pampering and pride of His Royal Highness Ax, and also to imply that the general forgot his public affairs because of his selfishness!
And in the process, Princess Rebecca is also mentioned, which seems to be saying that the sister and brother are in deep love, but in fact, it may not mean to draw the public eye to the princess, and in the end, it may even mislead the public, making them think that the sister and brother will have a bad influence on the general.
Lin Zexi nodded and echoed Hain: "I agree, it seems that the real purpose of the other party is not to want the general to have too close a relationship with the Carter royal family...... or even to marry......
Since the Dark Sentinel's appearance of a moderate fugue must be kept strictly secret, only Lin Zexi and Hai En knew the real situation among the members present, and the others, like the high-ranking military officials, thought that Chen Jing had affected his work because of his younger brother.
But because of beauty and because of family affection, the difference is still huge.
Everyone immediately realized that the meaning behind the enemy's initiation of this incident was likely to affect Chen Jing's marriage!
"Next, I'm afraid the Guide Guild will make a move." Hayne added.
Chen Jing's style has always been rigorous and almost impeccable - this time the other party finally seized the opportunity, and he will definitely make a big deal about it and make things bigger, so the situation is very unoptimistic.
"Do you want to ask the official to make a clarification on the virtual platform first?" An officer sitting next to Hain said.
In fact, this is the consistent practice of the military and the government, and in the event of an internal scandal, in order not to affect the image of the entire army, the official will definitely make a "clarification" and then carry out a covert operation to guide the public to believe the official statement.
In other words, it is completely false to let the official explain that the general was not late for the meeting of the military headquarters at all!
However, this would also take a greater risk – if the enemy revealed some "insider" information, making the public feel that they had been deceived and rebelled, it would cause great damage to Chen Jing's reputation.
"In this way, it seems that the best solution is to make the real cause public." Another officer spoke cautiously.
He himself said hesitantly, and no one present dared to answer - as Chen Jing's henchman, everyone knew very well that the Chen family attached great importance to this little son, and he protected him very well on weekdays, and did not let him appear in the eyes of outsiders.
Therefore, in the case of the urgency of the situation at that time, the reason that Hain came up with on the improvised basis would convince most people.
But if you make a fuss about this, use the youngest son of the Chen family as a shield, and with the character of a general, you may not agree to do this.
Sure enough, Chen Jing, who was listening to their discussion, directly refused: "No." ”
"It's not appropriate to make any explanations or statements to the outside world at this time, after all, it's a fact that the general arrived late that night," Hain thought for a moment and said, "Instead of making a fuss about the public, it's better to strictly investigate the inside!" ”
It is obvious and not advisable to say too much and be wrong.
On the other hand, this is actually an opportunity for them to find the leader of the incident - as long as the other party continues to arrange the next action, it is bound to leave clues!
If this enemy was smart and alert, he would definitely not risk being found by Chen Jing and the others and continue to move on to the next step.
What's more, if their ultimate goal is to influence the general's marriage, then there is no need to risk being discovered and spread gossip.
After all, one person leaking secrets can only be regarded as personal dereliction of duty, and many people leaking secrets can rise to the problem of the entire military department! At that time, Chen Jing, as the supreme commander, had every reason to carry out a drastic investigation and sweep away, which was not beneficial to the main messenger hiding in the shadows.
In this way, without the mastermind behind it to continue to add fuel to the fire, and the official did not rush out to "cover up", with the prestige of General Chen Jingxing and the support of the masses, this matter will soon slowly lose its popularity, and even become a "farce made up by individuals who want to be famous"!
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
On the other hand, the "red face and troubled water" himself is also very distressed.
"This is causing a lot of trouble for the general!" Arkes snuggled up on the couch, clasped his hands on his knees, rested his head on it, and said in frustration: "If only the general had not come back, so that he would not be criticized." ”
Qiuqiu jumped from his shoulder to the sofa and enlightened him: "There are two sides to everything, maybe Chen Jing will enter a moderate fugue if he doesn't come back!" So do you think it's better to faint at home or in the military department? ”
Needless to say, it's definitely safer at home – and there's a reason to prevaricate at home...... If it is outside, in full view of the military department, I am afraid that Chen Jing's situation will be exposed immediately!
"It can be seen that this time Yang Yang's illness is used as an excuse, and the general is very unhappy." Using family members to make a fuss will not be happy for any honest and kind person.
Akes can understand Chen Jing's mood, usually the brothers don't communicate much in language, but Chen Jing cares about his younger brother, and Akers can feel it when he gets along with them.
"This is also something that can't be helped, the explanation made by Lieutenant General Hain at that time is actually the most correct, and only in this way can the damage be minimal."
After all, Hai En is Chen Jing's subordinate, not Chen Xu's elder brother, and what he does must naturally put the interests of the general first.
Qiuqiu used his small claws to reach Akes's forehead: "Now that we have system energy, your mental power is slowly repairing, and you can learn to practice spiritual channeling......"
It glanced at Arks vaguely when it said this, and continued: "Actually, most of the sentinels who entered the fugue were holding back too much, Chen Jing has been holding back for almost thirty years, if you are not willing to contribute body fluids, then we can only find another way to help." ”
"......" Akers.
For two days in a row, Chen Jing and Lin Zexi did not return to the Marshal's Mansion, and there were only two teenagers and a little Zhengtai in the restaurant. Because the incident has not been resolved, everyone is quite depressed.
Akes and Lin Zexin took the fork and chewed it tastelessly, Xiao Zhengtai didn't seem to have a good appetite, and he didn't want to move anymore after digging two spoonfuls.
"Young Master Xu, you have to eat more, this is not enough." Mr. Gray looked at Shota with concern, trying to persuade him to eat more, but Shota shook his head and expressed his meaning in silence.
Akes's afterglow was aimed at the little wolf cub lying next to the table leg, and the noisy little furball seemed to be a little listless, and the "whoop" cry that could last a whole meal was only sparse when he first saw Akers enter the door, and there was no sense of neutrality.
He asked Qiuqiu, but Xiao Zhengtai's mental power is originally special, one is there, one is not, one is strong, and one is weak, it is difficult to draw conclusions.
As a spiritual body, the little wolf cub can reflect the situation of the body, and its pitiful little appearance is not a healthy state no matter how you look at it!
Axes suddenly became nervous - could it be the previous excuse, the little guy is really sick!
He hurriedly hugged Xiao Zhengtai, who was sitting next to him, and prepared to feed him with a bowl, while coaxing: "Yangyang eats obediently, and I will tell you the story of the big hero later!" ”
- The story of the big hero is the story of the elder brother......
Although Xiao Zhengtai was not too interested in the story that he had heard countless times, it was still very happy to let Acers hold and feed, and he finally took the initiative to open his little mouth and wait for Acers to feed.
After the little guy finished eating, Akers and Lin Zexin carried him back to the room, and he quickly fell asleep again.
"Mr. Gray, something is wrong with Yangyang, we need to find a doctor to check it out quickly!" Akers said to Mr. Gray.
"It's normal for children to feel sleepy after eating, and it's nap time now." Lin Zexin didn't understand Akes's nervousness.
Of course, it was impossible for Axes to tell them, because he saw Chen Xu's spiritual body, so he could only continue to say to Mr. Gray: "Yangyang usually eats his own meals, this weather is neither hot nor cold, how can his appetite suddenly deteriorate?" ”
They are worried about the general's affairs, so they have a bad appetite, but Chen Xu is young, he doesn't understand!
Mr. Gray understood what Acers meant, and immediately said, "I'll call the family doctor over!" ”
Akers sat on the edge of Xiao Zhengtai's bed, looking at him frowning slightly and sleeping unsteadily, he was distressed, stretched out his hand to touch his forehead and little face, and prayed silently in his heart: "Yangyang must not have anything to do!" ”
