Chapter 12: Don't pretend, I've seen through your mind!
At this moment, Bai Muge's mind was a little dizzy.
The words of King Xiao Tang are also unknown.
"What the hell happened to your grandfather!!"
Bai Muge couldn't help but roar in his heart.
However, Chen Duolong and the guards behind him, after seeing this scene, all smiled and looked "sure enough".
"Let's just flatter Lord Bai, it's really right!"
"That's nature!"
"Lord Bai risked his life to get rid of the thief Zhennan King for His Majesty; What's more, the two of them have had an excellent relationship since childhood, and they must be the most trusted person by His Majesty now! ”
"Your Majesty rewards Lord Bai so much, that's right!"
Although they didn't know when Bai Muge had made a great contribution to King Xiao Tang, King Xiao Tang was right!
- Bai Muge must have made another meritorious service!
Otherwise, Xiao Tang Wang would not have said this.
The more at this 'critical' juncture, as an official who accompanied Bai Muge to carry out the task of raiding his home, the more Chen Duolong could not steal the limelight from Bai Muge.
After all, in addition to being loyal to King Xiao Tang, he also had to get closer to Bai Muge.
In this way, he, the secretary of the criminal department, can be promoted to become rich...
Now is not the time to take credit.
"Your Majesty."
Chen Duolong immediately came back to his senses, bowed solemnly to the dragon chair, and said with a whim: "This great achievement has been achieved thanks to Your Majesty's wise decision-making and Lord Bai's resourcefulness!" ”
"Exactly, Your Majesty."
The statistician behind him, seeing Chen Duolong say this, he also flattered him together, "If it is not for the wise guidance of His Majesty and the wisdom and strategy of Lord Bai, he will be inferior to others......
I'm afraid that I want to break my head, and I can't imagine that there is such a good plan in the world! ”
When the rest of the guards saw this, they didn't forget to echo the promise together.
Although they didn't know the reason, they could vaguely guess from the deputy statistician just now that this must be another great achievement!
At this time, there is absolutely nothing wrong with slapping the sycophants!
Sure enough.
Hearing that Chen Duolong, the statistician and others were all so brazenly patting their ass, Li Chen, the king of the Little Tang Dynasty, was somewhat throbbing in his heart.
[The feeling of being slapped on the back is really cool......]
But as the son of the Tang Dynasty, he is not obvious on his cheeks about everyone's sycophancy, but he is still a little serious.
He raised his hand slightly, interrupting everyone's flattery.
At this time, seeing that Bai Muge was still silent, Li Chen, the king of the Little Tang Dynasty, couldn't help but say again:
"Bai Aiqing, if you hadn't risked your life this time and acted a 'corruption to lure the enemy', I wouldn't have been so easy to catch the remnants of the King of Zhennan.
Don't pretend, I've seen through your mind.
Today's reward, no matter what, you must also accept it from me!
Say, what do you want? ”
While speaking, Li Chen, the king of the Tang Dynasty, deliberately gave Bai Muge a look and glanced at Li Shixuan.
Obviously, Li Chen, the king of the Tang Dynasty, wanted to take this opportunity to coax Li Shixuan to be happy.
However, Bai Muge's reaction was a slow beat, he looked at King Xiao Tang in puzzlement, and asked aloud: "Your Majesty, when did Weichen play a trick of corruption and luring the enemy?" ”
"Still pretending!"
Xiao Tang Wang straightened his face directly, got up from the dragon chair, and walked to Bai Muge's side, "Fang Cai, Li Qing has already explained everything."
In this matter, if you didn't deliberately pretend to be corrupt in addition to raiding your home, and put a golden coat in your pocket openly, how could you let that group of hidden chaotic parties take the bait?
Fortunately, you have this plan, otherwise it would have been difficult for me to find them all in a while! ”
After explaining the reason, Xiao Tang Wang raised his eyes lightly and smiled at Bai Muge.
The two of them have been together since childhood, what kind of character Bai Muge is, doesn't he still understand?
The more Bai Muge doesn't admit it, the more true this matter will be!
After all, Bai Muge has always been cautious in doing things.
Bai Pastoral: "......"
Now he finally understood why King Xiao Tang would talk about him, and he made another great achievement.
It's just that what he never expected was-
He was "really corrupt" a golden coat, but because of this incident, Li Chen, the king of Xiaotang, happened to catch the remnants of the Zhennan Palace.
[These guys are too unlucky, right? 】
Bai Muge was in his heart, and mourned for three seconds for their group of unlucky ghosts.
"Your Majesty's words are serious, doing things for Your Majesty is the duty of Weichen." Coming back to his senses, Bai Muge smiled and said, "This is all what Weichen should do." ”
Seeing this, King Xiao Tang glanced at Li Shixuan at the dragon chair with a slight light.
When he found that Li Shixuan was full of smiles at the moment, he was not angry, nor did he puff out his peach blossom eyes to stare at him, Li Chen was relieved.
[There are many people here, so let them leave first, and it's not too late to talk about it!] 】
With a secret voice in his heart, Li Chen, the king of the Little Tang Dynasty, looked at Chen Duolong and the others, and immediately waved his hand: "All Aiqing are fortunate, let's retreat first, Bai Aiqing will stay." ”
"Uh...... Yes, Your Majesty. ”
Chen Duolong and the others reacted at this time, and bowed down to say goodbye a little unexpectedly.
But at the moment, they were all panicking.
After leaving the imperial study, everyone couldn't help but turn their eyebrows, and their eyes looked at the inside of the imperial study.
They were eager to know what Bai Muge would secretly say to King Tang at this moment.
Outside the Imperial Study.
"Lord Doron..."
The statistician hesitated to stop his pace, and did not choose to leave immediately, but with a frightened face, he approached Chen Duolong's side, and whispered in his ear:
"Lord Bai before, he collected gold clothes in the Zhennan Palace, but he didn't expect it to be a plan to corrupt and lure the enemy.
But the lowly people, before, did collect the silver taels of the house.
If this matter is known to His Majesty, it will be the life of the lowly people..."
After that, the statistician didn't dare to go any further.
What are the consequences of the crime of bullying the king, there is no need to say it at all, everyone is an official of the imperial court, and everyone knows it.
When Chen Duolong heard this, he was also very panicked in his heart.
"Don't be in a hurry."
Forcibly calming his mind, Chen Duolong thought for a while, and then said in a deep voice, "This matter ...... Maybe it's Lord Bai, who is testing our loyalty, and this official believes that Lord Bai will not tell His Majesty about this.
Since Lord Bai is doing this to act, to show those chaotic parties in the dark, so that they can be wiped out, then we can't take it into our pockets. ”
"Shall we ...... What should I do? The statistician asked again.
Chen Duolong said with a smile: "Don't panic, you first take all the silver taels obtained from the house to the treasury, and fill the vacancy on the statistical list by the way."
The official waited outside to see His Majesty...... Will someone send an order? ”
"Humble duty understands." The statistician hurriedly responded, and several people came to the corner, took all the embezzled silver, and sent it to the treasury.
Chen Duolong waited outside the imperial study.
At this moment, Bai Muge in the imperial study didn't know that Chen Duolong and the others struggled in their hearts for a long time, and then decided to give up the bribe.
But seeing that there was no one around the imperial study, Li Shixuan immediately stepped forward with the wine jug that had been prepared earlier, and showed two charming and cute dimples between his smiles.
"Brother Mu, give it, hurry up and drink a sip of wine to warm up."
