Chapter 37: The Drama

On the second day, it was rare for the system not to wake Chen Lihua up early, because according to the plan, Chen Lihua did not have much arrangement today. So the system saw that Chen Lihua was really tired, so just before Chunjin came in quietly, he controlled his body and wrote a line of words: It's okay today, pigeon. Call me at ten o'clock.

Although Chunjin couldn't understand the meaning of the pigeon word, Chen Lihua still knew about her recent hard work, helped Chen Lihua cover the quilt again, and went out.

Along with this, the chef was distressed in directing to pour out the last bit of rice, Wang Dewei took the idle guards Hulala to the bamboo forest to chop firewood, in fact, to step on the point and rehearse the plan, Chen Lingxuan was on the way to the Commander's Mansion, his plan, there was still the last piece of the puzzle.

When he arrived at the Commander's Palace, he honestly handed in the paperwork, but was still stopped by two guards, and he took out two pieces of broken silver with interest and distress, and then saw Yelef.

"What wind is blowing you in? Chen Shilang? Jellef lay lazily in his rocking chair, with two young girls rubbing his shoulders and beating his back.

Chen Lingxuan wiped the sweat from his head, and his fat face showed a skillful smile in the past, "Commander, the rice sent here is almost not enough, the princess asked me to ask if I can send some more." ”

"Huh? I have carefully calculated this meter, it will only be more and not less, we Liang people will not play tricks in this kind of place, and we can't do big things with buckles and ropes. You're not going to bring these people three meals a day, do you? "Suspected of cutting corners on a mere 1,000 stone of rice, Jellef was a little unhappy.

"No, it's me, it's me, didn't I see so many refugees and couldn't hold back, and a little bit of it was left." Chen Shilang noticed that Yelef was a little moved, so he made an excuse in a hurry, and gestured with his thumb and index finger.

"A small part? You have to be greedy for even three days' worth of food, and you are worthy of being a southerner. Jellef shook his head and smiled, "You won't let me make up for your embezzlement." ”

"Of course not, I don't want to come either. But isn't Her Royal Highness the princess asking me to give it a try? I was just ordered to come over for a trip, and when I went back, I told her that the total amount sent by the Great Commander was fine, and it was caused by the fact that the master cook was too cunning and wanted to add food to those untouchables. ”

"If you deceive your superiors and subordinates like this, aren't you afraid that your princess will know?"

"Great! It's finally here. Chen Lingxuan was excited, and finally got to the point! Of course, the main purpose of Chen Lingxuan's visit this time was not to say anything about the food problem, but the most important thing was to prove that he and Wang Dewei did not know about the rebellion, so as to prompt Yelev to misjudge, and finally only brought those 250 people over and fell into the trap.

"Don't mention it, Grand Commander, that woman is like losing her soul now, after yesterday's martial arts competition, Her Royal Highness the Princess went back early after giving porridge, but yesterday morning she was out of spirit, I also watched her listless, thinking if I could take the opportunity to make a profit, so I tentatively said that the rice was not enough. Actually, I just asked casually, and I didn't think it would succeed, but guess what? ”

Chen Lingxuan clapped his hands excitedly, as if he was really greedy for a bunch of rice.

As a result, she didn't suspect that there was enough rice yesterday and why there was less today, so she directly asked me to come over. You see, this is the case, and it can be regarded as a coincidence, isn't it a cheap thing to take advantage of. ”

Looking at Yelef's uncertain expression. Chen Lingxuan knew in his heart that he had succeeded most of it. "He should have believed that Her Royal Highness the princess had seen the account books, but he should still have some doubts about Wang Dewei."

"So how did she become like this, you know? Do you need me to send Lang Zhong over? Yeleff's face was heavy, and he leaned forward and asked with concern.

"You can really pretend to be an old thing." Chen Lingxuan slandered, but his expression did not change, and his flattery was still there: "We Lang Zhong has seen it, and said that everything is fine in his body, but he doesn't know what the reason is, he only said that it may be caused by poor sleep, and he prescribed some medicine to calm the nerves." These quack doctors, as soon as they came to use, stroked their beards and said that they had never seen such a strange disease, and if the Grand Commander could send a few famous doctors over, it would naturally be excellent. ”

"What did you say, you and I are brothers, the princess is sick, that is, the princess of my country is sick, I should be more concerned, so let's let a doctor like me go back to see if I have a look." By the way, does Wang Dewei know that you secretly hid rice? ”

Jellef asked seemingly casually.

Chen Lingxuan replied with a smile, "Naturally, I know, as far as he is bold, I said that it would be good to hide a hundred stones, and he insisted on adding one hundred and fifty stones." ”

Yelev frowned, slapped his chair, and shouted "Bold! How dare you lie to me! ”

Chen Lingxuan didn't expect that something was wrong at the last moment, so he hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "What I said is true, and I hope the Grand Commander will tell me where I have made you unhappy." ”

Jellef said angrily. "Wang Dewei is a rare warrior, how could he do such a despicable thing? You must be slandering people's innocence, Chen Shilang. ”

In the face of Yelef's intimidation, Chen Shilang was not afraid, still looking like a pug, and there was still a trace of the literati's habitual dislike for martial artists in his eyes.

"Don't you know, Great Commander, in our Jin Kingdom, martial arts and morality are separated, the more powerful the general, the more powerful the greedy land. Let's just say that our Western Army general is amazing. Every time he goes out, he takes a tenth of all that he has captured, and whoever impeaches him, he says, if he is not happy, let whoever go on the expedition for him, and he has to go out. Every time he said that, the officials stopped talking. The upward and downward effects, after a long time, everyone is used to it. If you are not greedy, the emperor is still not at ease! You say that military attachΓ©s are not greedy for money, so what are they greedy for? ”

Yelef laughed and said, "It's really a long experience, sure enough, you Jin people know the Jin people best!" I've never heard of this phenomenon, I've never heard of it! ”

The two let out a foul laugh. Yelev said, "You make me very happy, you will be my friend in the future, we will not embarrass our friends, go back and tell your princess, I will personally send the food tomorrow." ”

"Friends? A dog that will amuse its owner. Chen Lingxuan thought so, but he might as well lie on the ground and shout, "Thank you, Great Commander." ”

"Hey, where is there a reason for friends to worship at every turn, knowing that you are rich, in this way, I still have two jade Buddhas here, you take them first."

Chen Lingxuan saw this and knew that his plan had succeeded. There was no need for Jellef to bribe himself, unless he asked for it afterwards, and he asked for it very much. This Jade Buddha is not so much a reward, but a threat, and after he killed the princess, he accepted the Jade Buddha again, and then he will be an accomplice, and he can't explain the reason, so he can only pinch his nose and wipe his buttocks.

Although he felt humiliated, Chen Lingxuan still remained silent, knelt on the ground again, grateful, and clenched the jade pendant with both hands, with a hideous face.
