Chapter 0167: Backbone
"Shi Jinchong must not be rude." Chen Mu reminded: "Lord Prison is here, you have to be polite. ”
Shi Jinchong just walked in and glanced at Wu Dong.
"Grass!"
After scolding a word, Shi Jinchong turned his head and walked away again.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was extremely awkward.
However, this is the attitude that the top master of the gate valve should have when he sees the lackeys of other factions.
You dead eunuch, what can you do with me?
It's a big deal to get to the top, let the Queen Mother talk to Tang Qiong.
If it really gets to that point, you Wu Dong will have a lot of face?
Chen Mu held back his laughter.
Hanxiang couldn't help it and turned her head away.
Wu Dong's dog face stretched longer, and he forcibly suppressed his anger and said: "If I want to give money afterwards, will General Chen still disobey the military order and not send troops?" ”
Chen Mudao: "The military order was issued by the General Staff of the Anxi Army. Of course, it will be carried out, but I, as the general lieutenant, seem to have the power to propose a postponement of the plan. ”
Wu Dong gritted his teeth: "It's better like this, I'll give you half first." ”
"Nope."
Chen Mu's tone was relaxed, but his attitude was very tough.
Wu Dong lowered his voice: "General Chen is not going to let me walk out of this room with dignity?" The secretary named Li Shan under your command ran to me and was poor with me for a while, could it be that you mean? ”
"Li Shan is a newly appointed person, he doesn't understand the rules, and he offended the prison army. I'm here to make amends for him. ”
"If not, I think when I go back, I should teach General Chen a good lesson."
"I don't think so." Chen Mu said in a low voice: "Adults don't remember villains." ”
Wu Dong narrowed his eyes: "Remember it or not, it's not all a matter of General Chen's words." ”
Chen Mu smiled bitterly: "Then let's allocate eighty percent of the money first, and the remaining twenty percent, I don't think you need to send it to me." I heard that Lord Wu still has an old mother alive, and I have the right to honor the old man as a younger generation. ”
Twenty percent is 20 million dollars. Hanxiang said in his heart: Chen Mu is generous enough this time.
Wu Dong suddenly laughed: "General Chen said that he was laughing, how dare Wu embezzle and deduct?" ”
Chen Mu stood up: "The missing twenty percent of the military salary is filled by my Dunhuang general, and Wu Jianjun has not deducted it. I took the initiative to give the money to Wu Jianjun. ”
Wu Dong felt that he had regained face and left happily.
At this time, Hanxiang said: "It is said that Wu Jianjun is not good at money, and it seems that it is nothing more than that." ”
Chen Mu said: "No, he is not greedy for money, he is greedy for power." He will not really give the money to his mother, but will use it to buy rare treasures to honor the Queen Mother. In this way, there will be no stain on him, after all, no yamen will say that honoring the Queen Mother is corruption. In Wu Dong's eyes, the queen mother is much more important than her mother. ”
"It's so ruthless." Hanxiang whispered.
Chen Mu shook his head and didn't speak.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of a fierce running from the rooftop.
This is the hall of the general's mansion, who is so bold to run on the roof?
Chen Mu immediately walked out of the house and looked up to the roof to see that Zhong Lixiang was fighting with a masked man.
Now Zhong Lixiang's identity is similar to the swordsman raised by the Three Great Gate Lords, such as Lin Falcon, whose role is to "counter the killer".
Chen Mu said: The relationship between a killer and a swordsman is like the relationship between a missile and an anti-missile missile. Another example is the cat and the mouse.
Today, Zhong Lixiang, the cat, finally found a mouse on the roof, and the mouse wanted to escape, but it was a little too late.
Zhang Han took a bow, and with a bang, an arrow pierced the killer's calf, and the killer fell down and rolled down the eaves, but when he was in the air, he cut his throat with a knife, and when he landed, he was already bleeding.
By the time the crowd had gathered around, the killer had already kicked his legs and died.
Chen Mu looked at the killer's face and didn't recognize him.
Although this person is an enemy, Chen Mu always has a natural awe in his heart for this kind of person who dares to die.
"Don't look at it, tell Zhang Youtian to deal with it, search his body, portrait, and bury it."
"Whoa."
Chen Mu turned his head to look at the roof: "Zhongli, how are you?" ”
Zhong Lixiang rubbed his shoulders: "It's not a big deal." ”
Chen Mu asked again: "Can you tell which killer he is?" ”
Zhong Lixiang said: "I can't see it." However, eighty percent are from Luoyang. ”
"Oh..., it's Luoyang again..."
——
Dunhuang City's soldiers and horses moved greatly, attracting attention from all sides, such as Ma Zun, the prince of Aziman, who sent someone to ask Chen Mu Aka, whether he was going to send troops, who he planned to fight this time, and whether he would send troops to the iron gate to coerce my father to give me the throne?
Chen Mu said to the envoy sent by Ma Zun that this time it was to fight the Gulan Kingdom and had nothing to do with Aziman.
The messenger said, "It would be nice if it was concerned, since the last time the king was captured alive by you, and since he returned, he has not been in good health, and he has been depressed all day long, and at the same time he has the idea of retreating, hoping to give up the position of archbishop. If Chen Mu Aka is really willing to help, now is the perfect time. Once missed, perhaps the position of the archbishop is set. If you want to change it, it's like cutting flesh and bones, which is even more difficult.
Chen Mudao, let me think about it, maybe after fighting the Gulan Kingdom, I will kill a horse pistol, and the soldiers will arrive at the Iron Gate Pass to help Ma Zun ascend to the throne.
The envoy thanked him for his kindness, left some gifts, and quietly left Dunhuang.
There is a gift list for gifts between Han people, but this is not the case with the Aziman people, they wrap the gifts tightly, and it is not easy to ask what the gift is in person, otherwise it will make people feel embarrassed.
After the messenger left, Chen Mu opened the package, and it turned out to be some exquisite jewelry.
Chen Mu picked a few pieces at random.
Holding a golddee pendant jade step and shaking, he said: "This is in line with the fragrant temperament, and it is the most suitable to send her." ”
Grabbing a glass tassel bra curtain embroidered with a golden peacock, Chen Muyi smiled and said: "This Western Regions feature is too obvious, Xiaomei must like it." ”
One by one, a pair of cicada rings were left, and they were handed to Li Shi, who was standing aside, obediently: "Oh, put it on you." ”
"General Xie gave it away, but Xiao Shi didn't dare to accept it." The little guy said very sensibly.
Chen Mu turned his head and glanced at Li Shi, and asked with interest, "Why don't you dare to accept it?" ”
Li Shi said shyly: "It's my brother who said it, in the general's house, you are not allowed to steal, and you can't eavesdrop on it; Don't covet anyone's good things, if you see them, remind them immediately, in case they are lost, to prevent melons and plums; The general gave goods, food to eat, clothes to wear, and not a single wisp of valuables was allowed. If you can't do that, let me leave as soon as possible. Hugh wants to embarrass the Li family. ”
Chen Mu nodded and said, "Your brother's backbone is extraordinary. ”
Li Shi frowned: "I heard that my brother went to ask someone for an account and was beaten." ”
Chen Mu smiled and said, "It's just a few mouths." The man who beat him was from the second rank of the Anxi Commander's Army. Xiao Shi, it's not to ridicule your brother, your brother can be slapped by a second-grade master, which may have been something he never dreamed of before. Because he didn't even have a chance to speak. And your brother's temper also needs to be honed. Actually, he's not that old. People always have to suffer some losses in order to mature. ”
